Killian was taken aback by his Nanny's question.He stood rooted on the ground, with a frown settling on his face.He did not know what to answer her. Heck! He didn't even know if answering her was something he was ready to do.With a smile on her beautiful face, Sarah patted his shoulders," you are like a son to me and I know you better. I can tell you like Maya. She is a good woman,a woman you can trust your future with. She is what you need so take my advice, son. Make your intentions known before it's too late." " Nanny, what do you mean? Is there something you are not telling me?" Killian asked.She was right when she said she knew him better, likewise, he knew her better.He could already deduce that there was something the lady was trying to communicate to him. But what could it be? Well, that's what he was looking forward to finding out." I have said what I have to say. The rest is up to you to figure out." Sarah said before walking away.She had caught sight of a shadow eav
Maya's eyes narrowed at Laura wondering what tricks the woman had up her sleeves. Things have been fine since she threatened the bitch, atleast Laura had not bothered her again so what's the deal with her?One thing was for sure, whatever it was, it was not something Maya was going to like, that she was certain.Maya turned her eyes to look at Killian who had his eyes trained on Laura with a calm expression on his face.One could mistake that look as composure but how could she think the same? She could tell that Killian was seething inwardly." What do you mean by that Laura?" Luna Miranda asked. " What else could it be, I mean Luna?" Laura asked, lifting her hand to reveal white knickers.Killian was taken aback seeing that particular underwear. He knew it very well since he bought it himself.Luna Miranda frowned and a look of frost covered her face."I have been wondering what Sebastian has been up to lately so I sneaked to his room and found this. They don't belong to me so I w
Hearing the serious tone Killian adopted, Maya's heart started palpitating.What would he tell her? Will it be something she was ready to hear? Those questions started flocking her brain and she could not keep her cool.Although they just made love, she figured out that having some more would probably stop Killian from saying whatever hurtful words he was about to sputter. So, she let her tongue roam freely inside the guy's mouth, tasting every inch of his smooth, hot skin, kissing his neck and sucking his earlobes, massaging his body with her hands, exploring him as if it was her first time.Killian found himself moaning and his shaft ready for round two. He sighed helplessly. No matter what, he could not stop his body from wanting Maya. His wolf, Dark, Seems even more excited." Mark her." His wolf imposed. For some time, his wolf has been nagging him to Mark Maya. At some point, he felt like Maya was his mate but Dark confirmed that she wasn't." Then why are you hell-bent on marki
'A note?' Maya wondered, slipping off the duvel and taking the note.Her heart thundered as she unwrapped it. What did he want to say to her? And why did he leave before dawn only leaving a note behind? Could it be that he wanted to tell her that everything was a mistake?Ofcourse, she was not someone important to him, or so she thought. Actually, he didn't need to Leave a note behind. Maybe just leaving without a word would be much better for her.With a racing heart, she finally unwrapped the letter.Dear Maya,I'm sorry if I can't fulfil my promise of watching the sunrise with you.I received news about an emergency at the packhouse so I left immediately.You were sleeping soundly and I did not have the heart to wake you.I will come back to see you when I'm done here.Wait for me.Wear something green for me.Love, Killian.When Maya finished reading the note, confusion gripped her every nerve.He sounded so sweet in the note, almost like he was a Lover who was reluctant to Leave
Killian arrived at the pack almost at dawn. He had hurried over when Marcus, his beta, informed him about an emergency. Upon his arrival, the elders of the council came out to greet him and inform him about what was going on.The situation was serious, or so they thought."We don't know why the silvermoon pack is sending threats. We also don't know what their alpha claims we have.” Lord Callaso Said." I think Lord Callaso is right. Alpha Lord. We can't have the midnight pack go to another war with the silvermoon pack." Another one chipped in."We must consider the possibility that we are facing the Silvermoon. Maybe we can reach an agreement with them." A third one added.Killian listened to the elders carefully. He knew he didn't have the final word on these kinds of decisions but he also knew that he will never surrender or allow others to threaten him. His decision was set in stone."No, I am not having a talk with anyone. My land will not bow to anybody. If their alpha wants war,
" I am asking you for the last time, did you or did you not write those letters?" Luna Miranda asked, her voice dangerous as her eyes narrowed at Maya." I have nothing to say." Maya answered. It's not like anything she would say would change anything. If Luna wanted to condemn her over such childish allegations, then all she could do is accept it all." She does not have anything to say because she is guilty. What a shameless woman. I knew from the moment I laid my eyes on you that you were not a good person. To think that you could be so despicable as to plot against Luna. " Laura said, fanning the flames of hatred." Mother, although Maya did write those letters to me, I convinced her that I will talk to you and have you accept our marriage. As long as she is willing to marry me and become my Luna, I can look past everything that happened." Sebastian finally spoke.Maya almost vomited blood hearing his words. Laura on the other hand clenched her fists and gritted her teeth in hatre
" She feels threatened by my presence here. She will do everything to get rid of me. What would an explanation do me? Nobody would believe me." Maya said shrugging nonchalantly.Looking at her, Killian wondered if she really was going to let herself be punished for something she didn't do." I believe you didn't do it, I guess that's enough. Don't worry, I will always be on your side." He added, gazing at her lovingly.Maya's eyes widened in surprise. What did he mean by always?" Don't give a promise you can't keep. I don't want you to protect me. The more you do, the more you'll have a problem with your mother." Maya spoke. She was no fool to not see that Luna Miranda held no affection for her second son.Why so? She could not help but wonder." That's no problem. I'm used to my mother's lack of concern and affection for me. It's been years, I no longer need it. As long as I have you, that's enough." Killian spoke, his eyes staring straight into her own.Maya tensed hearing his word
Maya took the loofah, lathering it with soap before she started cleaning herself." I'll help you." Killian said, taking the loofah and taking over cleaning her body. Maya felt the loofah move across her body and she closed her eyes, just letting him clean her. She felt Killian move the loofah between her legs, and she bit her lip, a moan trying to escape her.Maya couldn't help it. It felt too good. She didn't care that she was supposed to be keeping her eyes closed. She let out a soft moan when the loofah passed between her legs, and her cheeks grew red at her response.She should have known that Killian had tricks up his sleeve in offering to help her bathe." You like how I bathe you?" Killian teased." Shut up," Maya replied. "You knew what you were doing when you said you'd help me bathe."" Oh? You mean this?" Killian teased, moving the loofah across her folds, before slowly sinking two fingers inside of her.Maya let out a throaty moan, her back arched." Mhmm," Killian chuckl
Four months later" Be careful, my wife. Don't trip and fall." Killian said as he helped me down the stairs." What do you mean don't trip ànd fall? Killian, can you stop treating me like someone who is disabled? I'm just pregnant for crying out loud." I said, rolling my éyes at his dramatic behavior." My wife, I'm Just worried about you ànd our babies. I can't wait for you to give birth to them." Killian said, his hands rubbing my bulging stomach.I slapped his hands away."What? Excited to meet the babies?" I asked and Killian frowned before shaking his head." Who wants to meet those two troublemakers? I'm Just anxious to get rid of them from your tummy so that you don't have to struggle so much." Killian answered, making me smile.The last four months have been a hell for me. I had to be bedridden for three months before being allowed to go outI couldn't even move around a lot without getting exhausted. I was lucky that I could walk to the bathroom and take a bath by myself.Whe
As I pushed open the door to my office, Asher was already waiting for me inside." Is everything ready?" I àsked and he nodded." Yes, the word has been spread and the preparations done. If everything goes as planned, tomorrow we will capture the traitor during Luna's send off." Asher replied and I nodded. He was a reliable man ànd that's why I kept him around me." Asher?" I called, my eyes looking him straight in the face." Have I ever mistreated any of you? Have I ever treated you guys unjustly?" I àsked. After getting the news about the betrayal of Marcus, I could not help but look back on whether I did anything to my men in the past to guarantee him turning against me." The Alpha is Just ànd treats us well." Asher answered" Why then do you think he turned against me?" I asked." Alpha, Marcus has always had his own ambitions. It's not something that anyone can stop. He probably thought that if he was the Alpha, his position would be stronger. That is his loss, he chose to make
After making that deal with Stephano, my heart finally calmed down. I could smell an impending bloodshed ànd I wanted to keep Maya as far as possible from everything. I can't take it if something really happened to her. I know that if that did happen, the last bit of my sanity would have been eroded away.After going back to the room, Maya was still awake, seemingly not sleepy at all. Walking to the bed, I laid down next to her, pulling her into my arms."Honey? You don't look okay, what happened?"I smiled and looked at the girl in my arms. Her eyes were looking up and down my face, trying to discern what was wrong. She seemed to Know me even when I tried to conceal my emotions, she would still figure out if I'm in a bad mood or not." My heart feels unsettled, can you help me feel better, wife?" I murmured, kissing her lips passionately.Her lips were soft ànd sweet. She had this power to awaken the beast inside me.Maya didn't reply but instead, her hands roamed all over my body. I
After leaving Amber's róom, I could not get the scent of blood in her róom from my mind. Something was telling me that it was not Normal and something was awfully wrong on her part.A witch. Blood.Those two things always had a connection.Could She be the one who killed my mother and framed Maya?On one hand was her hatred towards Maya and on the other side was her closeness with my mother.Amber and my mother have always shared a close relationship so I did not see a reason why she would get rid of her.Deep in thought, I headed straight to my office and summoned Asher. Although Amber did not have a motive to kill my mother, I could not ignore the blood in her room.Asher arrived faster than I expected." Is there something the Alpha wants me to do?" He asked and I nodded. He knew me all too well." Yes. In your free time , help me check what Amber was up to in the south." I said.Asher nodded." Also, don't tell anyone. Make it as discreet as possible, don't startle the snake in th
Killian povUncle Damian's revelation shook me to the core. A witch? Of all people? Why would a witch want to harm my mother then pin the blame on Maya? I don't remember ever offending a witch in my struggle to stabilize the midnight pack so that came as a surprise. After he left my office, I summoned Asher to my office. I don't know why but after Maya asked about Marcus and Amber, I have been having this strange feeling of mistrust towards my beta. I wanted to tell him about the new information but I have been having this weird suspicion that he may have known all along.His face is too impassive. He didn't seem shocked when I told him that it was a witch who was responsible for the death of my mother. On the contrary, he seemed, scared? I can't tell for sure but I'm not involving him in this. To distract him, j decided to send him away to look for Sebastian Although he left the pack, he is still my brother. I knew that trying to get him back here would be a failed attempt so I c
" I feel so helpless." Killian confessed."What's the need of being the Alpha if I can't protect the people I love?" He added, running his hand through his hair.Seeing his son so stressed, Damian felt a pang of pain hit him. " Don't worry son, I will never let anything happen to your woman. She is like my daughter and a father's duty is to protect his children. You concentrate on delaying her trial, I will take care of things." Damian promised, his eyes laced with nothing but determination.He was not going to let Maya be condemned and punished for something she didn't commit. He would not let his son lose the only reason for his happiness.Killian was touched hearing his father's words. In the past, he was the only one who treated him best, with the exception of his Nanny Susan. Now that he knew the relationship between the two of them, he was glad that he had a father who cared so much about him." Thank you," he said in a low voice. He didn't take his help for granted. He was ha
Killian walked straight to his office, lost in thoughts. He didn't know what to do to help with Maya's situation.He was helpless. With the council pulling his legs to present Maya before them for trial, he was desperate to save her.Others might believe that she did it, but he would never believe that.The Maya he knew accommodated everyone and nothing would push her to commit murder, not to mention that the person was his own mother.She would never do anything to hurt him, that he was certain about. " Meet me in my office," he mindlinked his gamma before making his way to the office.If he wanted to unravel the truth, he needed some help and cracking such cases, only his gamma was capable enough.Arriving at his office, he walked to his liquor store before retrieving a bottle of whiskey.In a moment like this, he needed something to stimulate his nerves and brain and what better way than gulp some hard whiskey. His gamma did not take long for him to arrive at Killian's office.Hi
Maya could not believe what she heard nor what she saw. She could not believe that Amber could be as cruel as to kill Luna Miranda in broad daylight.In that moment of disbelief, she stood rooted in place, unable to move.Amber, who was startled by the sound of the falling tray, turned to look at Maya with murderous eyes. Her eyes were glowing red and one look at her, Maya could tell that she was not herself.Maya's suspicions escalated. No wolf can use magic and that's what Amber used to get rid of Luna Miranda.Stalking towards Maya, Amber had a crooked smile on her lips." You have a tendency of foiling my plans, don't you?" Amber asked and Maya stumbled.Flight or fight kicked in but her legs were too heavy to even take a step." First, it was the attack and now you can't let me get rid of that traitor in peace? What should I do to you?" Amber asked, her voice sounding dark and sinister. Her eyes remained beet red. They were scary." What do you want to do to me?" Maya asked, chal
Maya didn't know what to feel. On one hand, she really hoped Killian could at least soften his heart and retract his decision of banishing the maids from the pack. After losing what she called home, she could understand how it feels and she did not wish that for anyone, even her enemy.On the other hand, she knew that Killian was right. The people needed to be taught how to respect her. As an Alpha male, taking pity on those two could be seen as softness and that could encourage the others to go against his words. As long as they could be forgiven after pleading. That was not something she wanted for Killian. Being indecisive could lead to his people questioning his authority and ability to lead the people.She watched as Killian walked away without even turning to look at her.Walking back to the maids, she could only pity them." Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do to help you. Take this as a lesson. Wherever you are, you have to respect authority. I hope you have a smooth life
