Sebastian had gone straight to his place after his drunk revelation to Killian. He had decided to sleep off the alcohol and leave in the morning."What do you mean you are leaving? You cannot leave Sebastian, I forbid it." His mother asked angrily."Lower your voice mother, I am not a child anymore. And that means you cannot forbid me from doing anything." Sebastian replied calmly. He did not know where he was going but he was determined to leave the pack. He no longer felt a sense of belonging. He had been feeling stifled and choked ever since he learned what his mother and so called father had done and "You are a coward Sebastian, that is what you are." Miranda shouted."No, I am not. At least I am brave enough to leave a fight that will no longer benefit me. What about you,mother? Are you ready to acknowledge to the pack that you messed up and caused immense hatred between two brothers? I am not a coward, what I am is ashamed of you. If only I could scrape off your DNA from me..."
What are you doing here this early Amber?" Bianca asked as Amber welcomed herself to a chair near Miranda."I came to talk to Luna Miranda about her son." Amber replied. "Did Killian tell you that he wants to get engaged to Maya?" She asked while facing Killian's mother.It was Bianca that replied. "That witch has managed to charm her way into marriage. It's incredible how she managed to make Killian want to settle with her.How did she do that?" Bianca and Amber had one thing in common; they both hated Maya with passion. Amber hated Maya because she felt Maya was not good enough and did not deserve to be with Killian. Bianca on the other hand hated Maya because she was Killian's lover. She, together with Luna, believed that it was Sebastian's right to be alpha and not Killian. Bianca wanted to be Luna so bad."That is What I am trying to find out. Killian has already chosen the date for the engagement. Luna Miranda, you have to help me stop it. We cannot let them marry each other."M
A strong weird smell hit her nose and she stopped before a single drop of water could hit her tongue. What was that smell? And why was the maid standing there, looking at her eagerly?"Why are you still here?" Maya asked the maid as she put the glass of water on the table."Sorry...I am...I am...waiting for the glass." The maid replied with a stutter. She wanted Maya to drink the water faster so that she could be on her way."Why? I know my way to the kitchen, I will take it back myself or is there something else?" Maya asked while looking at her suspiciously."I...no. I will leave now." The maid hurriedly left the room. What was she going to tell Amber? That Maya did not drink the water and she had failed in her mission to kill her? She hoped Maya drank the water, she really hoped. She had to find a way to go back to confirm.Maya could not drink the water. First because of the smell coming from it and second because she was suspicious about the maid's behaviour. Ever since she arriv
The maid was tired of being tortured. They had used all manner of tools to punish her but she remained adamant. She was still insisting that she was the one who had come up with the idea of poisoning Maya. She was even willing to show them where she had gotten the poison. It was night time when the majority of the wolves had gone running. The maid could see the moon shining brightly, she wished she was outside. As much as she hated Maya, she wished she had not taken Amber up on her offer to poison Maya. Her wolf was itching to join the hunt outside but she could not. She had to concentrate by hearing the howling of the other wolves and imagining the window running through her dark furs.Where was Amber? She better she was out running with other wolves as she was in the dungeons waiting for the guards to come back and torture her some more. She hated Amber, she had lured her into this and now she was a no show.Someone was coming, she held her breath and listened. The footsteps stoppe
Chapter 95Maya walked towards the woods. Her fight with Killian had made her so angry she was almost trembling. She needed to release the anger and what better way to do it than run in the woods. If she did not, she would do something she would regret and she was trying to be better. She had always been cautioned against her anger, reacting before thinking things through. She would deal with Killian later, they had to talk. She was not going to allow him boss her around just because he was an Alpha. She was Luna and was not going to let him forget that. He could order his people around and not her. She deserved respect as his equal and if he could not offer it, then she was going to demand it. She was almost nearing the woods when she spotted two figures in the dark. They seemed to be engaged in a heated argument. At first she could not make their faces because they were turned away from her. She moved closer and realised it was Amber and Marcus. They were whispering and she could n
Amber paced impatiently. She hated when she fought with Marcus, it made her jittery and unsettled. She had been trying to make him see reason yet he was adamant that she had been hasn't in making a decision that could have destroyed them both if discovered. She wanted to be done with this Maya business before the engagement ceremony. Luna had not been helpful.Marcus opened the door slowly and entered the room. He found Amber seated on the bed, her knees moving in sync with her hands."I have been waiting for you." Amber said."I am here now." Marcus said nonchalantly."We could have finished this conversation but that just had to come out of nowhere, as always. We were doing okay with Killian when she butted in." Amber started complaining."Is that why you wanted to poison her? Because she took Killian away from you?" Marcus asked."Don't be ridiculous. I am with you. You are my mate. The relationship between Killian and I is dead, old news. I...""Why did you do it then?" Marcus cut
Maya felt refreshed after the run. All she needed now was a hot bath, fresh clothes and some warm food to give her the willpower to square out things with Killian. She picked a towel and was headed to the bathroom when Killian waylaid her. One moment he was not there, the next minute he was in front of her. She almost toppled over."Oops! I did not see you there." Maya said as she picked up the towel that had fallen from her shoulders.Killian sniffed another scent of Maya even before he reached her. It made his blood boil with a lot of questions."Whose scent is that?" Killian asked angrily."You did not even apologise for almost knocking me over." Maya accused."I asked you a question Maya, don't play games with me. Whose scent is that on you?" Killian repeated, loudly this time."Don't get your knickers in a twist Killian. I went for a run and bumped into Lord Stephano." Maya explained. Killian's anger was starting to irritate him.She had been in a good mood after the run, now she
"I must go visit Killian." Luna Miranda told Bianca. She had been thinking of what to do about the Sebastian situation. The idea of visiting Killian had just sprung up in her mind and she felt it was the right thing to do."When are we leaving?" Bianca asked innocently."We? I will be going alone. You stay here and take care of the mansion." Luna Miranda said."If you say so. When are you going?" Bianca asked grudgingly."Right this minute. I want to arrive before Killian leaves for his rounds." Luna Miranda said as she threw in a few clothes in her bag. Luna Killian arrived before Killian left for his daily rounds just as she had predicted and wanted. Some of the old maids from the previous alpha's era recognized her and went to welcome her. They wanted to help with her meager luggage but she shooed them away."I can carry my own bag. Pretentious rats." She trotted into the common living room and found Killian, Marcus and others having a brief meeting."Now, just ensure that nobody
