Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 18
KIRA:I think it’s about time I find a way to make a run for it. It might not be a successful attempt in the end but it would be worth trying. Because even if I had a glimpse of hope that I would be allowed to walk away free, that hope has been dashed completely now.My last encounter with the beta was nothing home to write about. I’m sure he still has my face marked in his mind. And as I sight him with the massive tattoo inks on his body which is more revealed due to the armless leather jacket he has on, I knew things were about to go through another route.“You!” the beta growls at me upon realization when he gets beside the Alpha. And unconsciously, I take another step backward out of fear.“Hold it right there, Hunter,” Alpha Reid says and turns his head to stare at the beta who looks like he is going to tear me apart if he gets the chance to. “What do you think you’re doing?”The snarls being produced by the beta are enough to make me terrified. I should have known that another d
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 19
KIRA:My eyes are fixated on the partially damaged ceiling as I lay on my bed. I’m drained and at the same time still trying to make sense out of today’s events. How everything started from a simple outing into the woods to unintentionally finding myself in another pack territory.I thought today would be my end. Or maybe something lesser than that. But I was sure vindicated by the leader whom I expected to get me behind bars. Am I not a lucky one? Or is there something else to it? Like the Alpha trying not to be at war with our pack?But one thing I know is that I need to learn how to control my mouth. I freely ran it when I shouldn’t, which even worsened the situation around there for me.‘Kira?’Wait, what? Is Alexia trying to contact me now that I didn’t need her help anymore?‘Kira? I’m sure you can hear me,’“You have been aired!” I respond to her, raising my hands as I twiddle my thumbs against each other.‘Are you mad at me?’“Pfft, why will I be mad at you? No, I'm not mad. H
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 20
REID:Abrupt silence takes over the study immediately after I denied the allegation thrown at me. Fortunately for me, I was perfect at being aloof whenever I wanted to be so it was enough to mask my emotions.“She isn’t?” A while later, Hunter questions me while still staring at me suspiciously.I take my time before responding, “Of course not,”“Then what was all that about?”My brows are raised questioningly. “What do you mean?” I ask.“Why did you have to be so easygoing with her? Everything she did today was totally wrong and yet you let her go just like that. Don’t you think that makes you a little suspicious?”“I was only fulfilling a duty—”“A duty?” Hunter cuts me off. “What duty would make you act so soft toward a girl that deserves to be punished?”“Would you rather I put her behind bars? Is that what you want?”“Maybe even more than that,” he says, a little eerie vibe oozing out from him. “That’s why you’re the Alpha. Decisions like that are what you’re supposed to take.”I
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 21
KIRA:“What makes you think I would want to go through that door with you?” I start to eye him suspiciously as I ask him that. Although my insides are telling me to go with him, I cannot help but think that he has an ulterior motive. And the thought of that was scaring me.He leans against the door. “Isn’t that why you came here in the first place?”“Of course not,” I deny. “I already told you that I came here to clear my head. That’s what I came here to do,”I watch him tug at his brown hair with his left hand, and almost at the same time, the wind blows in our direction. Perfect timing to look cool, I guess.“So,” he starts to say, “of all the places to clear your head, it just had to be the back way.”“It was a simple coincidence, trust me,”“Then why is your palm red?”I look down at my hand immediately to notice how red my palm was. Obviously, it was from trying to handle the locks then.“Well,” I try to maintain composure as I speak, “I actually burnt myself unintentionally whil
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 22
REID:I completely back away from the door, keeping my guard up as I fix my focus on it. Why can’t today just be an absolutely normal day for me?‘Are we safe? Am I safe?’ I ask Bryan who hasn’t said a word since he instructed me from moving further to the entrance.‘I don’t know,’ is his panicky response which is starting to affect me as well. ‘What I do know is that we are surrounded by something that is out of the ordinary which is why you need to be extra careful right at this moment,’A knock on the door again. And then another. And then another. This sure doesn’t look good.The scent has completely been masked now. No way to figure out if it is someone or just a thing out there.The instance a knock comes through again, I ask Bryan using my voice, “Don’t you think we need to make a run from this?”‘And risk your safety?’“So you mean I should stay in here all day while some maniac out there continues to taunt me? Is that what you want me to do?”Bryan scoffs. ‘Put down your ego,
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 23
KIRA:“Glad I found you here, Kira,”As I was seated on the ground, I have to lift my head from my arms which were resting solely on my knees to see Bradley standing in front of me. Strange that I didn’t feel his presence when he arrived.“It’s you,” I say in a sort of whisper before putting my head back on my arms, burying my face in between my legs in the process.Instantly I feel Bradley join me on the ground where I’m seated. Even though I wish to be left alone, I didn’t feel uncomfortable that he was with me now. Perhaps I needed company without knowing.“Was surprised when your mother told me you were behind the house. Never thought I would actually meet you here,” Bradley lets that out in one go. “Are you okay?” I hear him ask after he sighs.“Yeah, I guess,” my voice probably comes out muffled due to the little or no space left in between my legs.Then silence ensues. Bradley doesn’t say anything to me for quite a long time and neither do I bother to strike up a conversation b
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 24
KIRA:“Why not?” Bradley, who seems rather enthusiastic about the annoying thought he just laid down, asks.I lash out in return, “Because that’s so stupid to even think of. Pretty much stupid that you could even say it to me. Why would I want to be mated to someone from our rival pack? And on top of that, the leader,”“But I don’t see anything wrong with it,” he says as he attempts to defend himself. “If you think about it, it works well. Alpha Reid is a young alpha without a wolf and you, you are a young female wolfling. A good idea I must say,”His enthusiasm was the most annoying thing out of everything he was doing or saying at the moment. It was the reason I was getting more and more infuriated from hearing him speak. And trust me, it was pushing me to hit him square in the face.“Do you know what you’re saying? Are you even listening to yourself at all?” I have to ask. And at the same time, I start to shift away from him again. I guess he was not totally in his right senses tod
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 25
REID:As the tapping sound of the Elder’s cane resounds in my ears, I start to arrange in my head the words that would enable me to have a smooth questioning with the old one.I didn’t entirely prepare myself to be here. Only decided to when I fell into a hallucination again. This time I could not take it and so put a message through to Hunter who decided to go with me to the base of the Red Legion.“Elder Griffith,” I start to say, swallowing a gulp swiftly to maintain composure, “is there a way you can make us understand the situation the pack is going through? The last time we were here, you mentioned something about a prophecy but neither my beta nor I understood what you meant. All we need now is a clearer understanding.”The moment I was done speaking, the continuous tapping on the floor stops, putting a brief stop to the pressure on me. I have no idea why I am so tense around the Elder when I wasn’t even close to that the first time I was here.The Elder’s husky voice takes ove

REID:I find Venice in her room about twenty minutes after my father left. Didn't even need to knock to get into the room because she left the door ajar.For a while, I stand at the entrance as I contemplated going over to sit beside her. She looked like she was thinking through a lot of things and I didn't want to meddle. But then I was here for a good cause.I eventually pushed myself to the bedside, taking a seat directly beside her. She doesn't even flinch or reacts to the fact that I've joined her and I stay quiet for a pretty long while until the courage to say something kicks in.“You sure about your decision?” is what I ask her. Trust me, I was not truly fine with speaking yet.She says nothing for such a long time that I thought she was going to ignore me totally. But then she speaks:“Why wouldn't I be?”I find myself nodding as if in understanding. Seems she has made up her mind about the whole thing before even confronting our father.I can't say I was a hundred percent in
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 79
REID:“Why don’t you wait? Let me teach you a good lesson!” Hunter yells at the already retreated Diana.He was already up on his feet with the sole aim of going after her but I was quick to get up on my feet as well and then hit him square in the chest, sending him back down on his seat.It was a good thing that I sat this close to him or he would have acted as the dimwit that he always is and go make trouble for himself. I wonder when he is going to learn how to comport himself.“If you dare go after her, I will have your head!” I threaten him with a glare.He does not even look threatened by what I just did as he scowls right in my face and then looks away. It took a lot of willpower for me not to smack him right across the face.I do the right thing by looking away from him. Damn it was exhausting having to control a grown-up. Wonder when he will learn to put himself at bay because I would be sure to do that for him if this goes on like this.I was just about to reprimand him once
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 78
REID:“We need to find a solution to your problem. We cannot keep letting you endanger the lives of others in this pack.” I say that with a bit of anger directed toward my beta seated right in front of me.It has been a week since the incident that had me having to put him down again. And for over a week, until yesterday, he was chained down to his bed. You could still see the scars that came with the silver chains used on his wrist. Must have hurt like hell.But I, for one, am not enjoying this. I should not be feeling endangered by the one I call my right-hand man. Literally makes no sense. How can I guarantee the safety of others when one of the problems comes from the one that should be assisting me in leading them?“I’m sorry, Reid,” he starts to say, reflecting soberness. “I wish I have a way of getting through this without putting the lives of others at risk but this is a tough call for me. The fact that I have no idea what is going on with me should be something I consider as
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 77
KIRA:I don’t know who suffered more from the attack between Bradley and me. Because we both look terrible at the moment.After the pack warriors had come around during the showdown between Bradley’s wolf and Kelvin’s, they had been able to handle the situation by subduing Kelvin’s wolf. But it took a lot before they were able to get that done even though they had come in their tens.Right after they had accomplished that, they took Bradley and me away from there while carting away with the struggling body of Kelvin who had been in his human form then. He was still not himself.The warriors had taken Bradley and me to the pack hospital which is where we both are now. The pack doctor had tended to our wounds already minutes ago now what we were made to do is rest so we could heal in time. It seems the claws that came with the possessed Kelvin had more than just ordinary swipes because it was taking time for either of us to heal.“That was your friend, wasn't it?” I hear Bradley ask, ta
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 76
KIRA:I feel I have lost a lot of blood. I can hardly move my body as I lay on the ground waiting for what fate has in store for me next.I can already hear incoming footsteps which means he is coming for me once more. The thought of it is frightening, especially judging that I have no defense against what is coming against me.When I hear nothing again, it prompts me to force myself to sit up so I can take a look at what is going on. I won’t necessarily say I succeeded in doing that because my elbows were just put up as a support to lift my body upward a little bit.I realize why I hear nothing from him again. This is because he is right now in the process of shifting. He has bent to the ground a little as the transformation starts to take place and in less than two seconds, a different entity was found in place of him which made me more scared than I was of him.His wolf is brown like almost other wolves I have sighted. The only difference is the size. Being that he is just an ordin

KIRA:“It’s the substance,” I say with my gaze still fully fixated on the spot Kelvin has his eyes on. Well, it did not come as a surprise to me because I was already aware of what killed my parents.I stand upright a little while later and look at Kelvin who cannot seem to take his eyes off the thing. And to be honest, it made me wonder if he had fallen into a hypnosis with the way he was acting.“Is this what you think we might find in here? There’s nothing special about this.” I say to him and then walk away from there to go check on something else.Even after a minute or so, I realize that I have not gotten a response from Kelvin which makes me look back at him. And to my surprise, he is still looking down at the substance.It was at that moment I knew something was wrong. How could he still be standing in the same spot since and be staring at the same thing? That was awfully strange.“Kelvin?” I decide to reach out to him by calling his name. But when he does not respond to my ca
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 74
KIRA:I’m out here freezing even though I got a pullover on. The weather seemed to have increased drastically in the last two days. And now I am beginning to regret that I agreed to be out here. At least, not by this time of the day.It’s way past noon already. I am certain it has hit the evening clock. But what do I know... I’ve been out here much longer than anticipated already.A few more minutes passed and I agreed that it was not wise being out here anymore. So I turn around intending to leave when I sight the person I’ve been out here waiting for.A frown makes its way to my face when the person’s gaze comes in contact with mine. I cannot believe that I got my time wasted just because of some link. He should have kept to the deal.The first words that leave my lips when he reaches right in front of me are, “You mind-linked me to be here yet you went on to delay me. Who does that?”He seems apologetic when he says, “I’m so sorry. I had to tend to something real quick at home. Did
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 73
REID:“What is wrong with him?” Diana, who just approached, asks. I know it is her even though I am not looking at her.I have full focus on Hunter who has already gone down to the ground. His situation has worsened because he now looks red all over. I cannot even place my hands on what triggered him to be this way.I finally respond to Diana’s inquiry. “He is at the point of going berserk.”“Berserk? Is this because of me?” she asks.“Not at all. The Abomination caused this on him. It is a long topic to discuss if I am going to go into the details with you.”I am glad he has not gone wild yet. I think he is fighting the urge to let the whole thing take control of his senses. Because if not, he should have switched already.Diana confirms my thoughts. “Whatever it is that he is fighting against, he is doing a pretty good job holding it off.”I nod. “So I see.”“What are we going to do now?”I look back for a second at Venice who just asked that. She looks all panicky as she stands in
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 72
REID:If I said I was not in awe of the activity going on right before my eyes, I would be a terrible liar. Watching the Red Legion train was something I would never hope to see in a million years but here was I witnessing it firsthand.Diana took permission from me this morning to use the training area to train with her men. According to her, it was the only way they could still be on track with their skills.I had agreed but only on the condition that I would be there to witness today’s training. And after today, they could have the training area to themselves whenever they needed to.She had thought it over first before agreeing to it. Not like she had a choice. And that is why I am here to witness the remarkable display of the skills the Red Legion possesses.Their prowess was much unique from what I have ever seen during any form of practice made by warriors. I could not seem to figure out the various forms of techniques they were showcasing. And it should not be much of a surpri
