KIRA:

The only thing I can hope for now is that whatever bad feeling that just found its way into me had better be simply a feeling and not something real.

My heart rate has increased rapidly since I started to run off in the direction of the quarters which I was sure to arrive soon. I am suddenly scared that something bad has happened and not just anywhere but in my household.

This had better not be what I am thinking, I tell myself inwardly when I arrive right in front of the quarters which I sight with the door opened ajar. It is the first feeling that something was totally wrong and instantly I barge into the apartment to want to know why the door was left open that way because that has never happened.

Perhaps I should not have gotten in yet. Because I was not even prepared for what I am about to see. And the moment I come in contact with the sight, I instantly become weak to the knees.

My father... My mother. They are both lying on the ground unmoving. And it was not just them on

    KIRA:I lean against a tree with my hand. The aim was to rest my weary legs which have been going on and on for who knows when.“Where am I?” I ask myself while glancing around to make sense of my environment. And after a while of looking, I figured I have no idea of my location.The truth is that I do not have it in me to think about it as I push the thought of that to the back of my head and then plump to the ground with my back against the tree that I was initially leaning on.A brief glance around once more while seated and then I decide I should just stay put for a while until I figure out what next I need to do.I can’t believe it. I just can’t. I still want to tell myself that what I saw was a lie but the realization keeps hitting me over and over again.How can my parents be dead? How? What could have killed them? They were fine when I left home today. And it did not seem like I would be going back to meet the corpses. Who knew that nature had everything planned out already? E

    KIRA:“What are you doing here?” At the same time, Alpha Reid and I throw the question at each other. Now it was left to who is going to answer first because this is definitely a situation I never anticipated.I have no idea how I am seeing him here. But the fact that Alexia already stated that I was not in the Green Dales territory means I could very much be in the Night Blaze territory. I think I might have trespassed again without knowing.Alpha Reid is the first to speak after that as he says, “This path has not been explored in a long time yet I find you here when I decided to check it out,” he pauses for a while as he gives me the rules of scrutiny which has me bothered. “Tell me, how much do you know about routes like this in my pack since you seem to have a thing for trespassing?”That was a question I have no idea how to go about. I was not sure about the response I have to give to him because he has put me in a position that I could not handle.How was I to explain that I di

    REID:It doesn’t. But I was not expecting to be hit with such a statement. I could suddenly feel her pain and it was enough to know that she felt so miserable at the moment.“I’m sorry about that,” I say, finding it the only thing I could say as a means to pacify her.She does not say anything. But her emotions seem to go in disarray straight up. Looking straight into her eyes, I could suddenly tell that she was struggling to fight back tears. With, the condition she is in, I don’t think she’ll be able to hold it back for too long.As expected, tears start to stream down her eyes slowly. She looked to be at the point of a breakdown. I think she has been bottling up her emotions for a while now and perhaps it got triggered when I tried to console her with my words. I guess I shouldn’t have then.Seeing her the way she is now made me uncertain about what to do to make her feel better. I know I should console her but I don’t think it would be the right thing to do, knowing that she doesn

    KIRA:“I’m sorry, alpha. I thought she was an intruder which is why I decided to put her down on the ground,”From a distance away, I watch as the already-risen wolf that has shifted to his human form apologizes to Alpha Reid. It was at that point that I realized the wolfling was a warrior.Alpha Reid runs his hand through his hair, looking a bit shaky. I don’t know why he was reacting that way but it was definitely different from how he has been since.“Don’t worry about her. She's with me,” Alpha Reid says to the warrior. “Now go back to doing your duty while I send her back to her pack, okay?”The warrior nods in response and then looks in my direction. He bows his head apologetically to me and then walks away from here, leaving Alpha Reid and me alone.I was not sure what to do in this situation because I could tell from Alpha Reid’s body position that he was not pleased with me. Makes me regret doing what I did initially. I guess I should have listened to him when he offered to h

    REID:I saw how disappointed she was when she looked book to realize I had walked away without a word. But I hadn’t left. Instead, I was a distance away watching her leave my territory, just the same way I had been watching her from a distance before she almost got attacked by one of my warriors.I had to keep my distance from her this time around. It was for my own good because staying around her was making me act up in a way that I shouldn’t. It took a lot of willpower to resist myself from taking her by the hand and telling her what she is to me.I had to put that idea in the back of my head then because it was bad timing. No way it would make any sense for a girl mourning her dead parents. It would have seemed like I was playing on her vulnerability.However, it has dawned on me that I am taking too long in getting something done about this mess in both packs. I didn’t get to find out from the girl what caused the death of her parents. There was no need to, though, because it was

    REID:I have no response to that yet as I cross over the bodies on the ground. The bodies are that of the warriors guarding the entrance into my quarters. They were still alive, though, because I could hear their faint heartbeats.“First, is this your doing?” I demand from Diana who is simply standing there with a somewhat pitiful expression etched on her face. I would never expect to see her in such a mood because the two times I met her, she had been one angry bird.“I had to,” is what she says in response. And before I could even demand to know why she what to go all out to knock out my men, Hunter had decided to take the stage.“You bitch! So it is you who has been giving us a hard time for the past hour! What the hell are—”Before Hunter could go any further, I quickly shut him up by raising my hand. He obviously recognizes what I mean by that because he goes quiet after that while I continue facing Diana who did not react to Hunter’s words.“Is it true that it's your doing?” I a

    KIRA:The right thing I should have done when I woke up this morning was make up my mind to stay home and get through the stage of losing both my parents. But I was in no way in the mood to grieve all day. So, instead, I opted to leave for school, which is where I am at the moment.It has been a long day for me. Nothing has made sense all through no matter how hard I try. And to make matters worse, the teachers in each class I have had all day decided it was the day they would call me each time to at least answer a question right in class. Unfortunately, I got everything wrong. And I did not give a shit.I cannot wait for the day to end. At least when I am back home to get depressed through the night and then wake up tomorrow morning to come to school again. Wonder how long I will be able to keep up knowing that the house is not empty except for my brother and me.It got to the time when extracurricular activities would take place. And normally, I would not go for any due to the lack

    KIRA:“Is that how it’s going to be?” I ask as I look back at the girls. My eyes glance down for a second to observe who might have hit me between the two. And sure I was able to find that out before putting my full focus on both of them.They seem to have a smug on their faces this time around. And Katie chooses to speak, “Do you want more of that? I’m sure you don't. So you had better shut your mouth or we’ll be willing to give out more.”“Unfortunately, I have become so bad at shutting my mouth.”Those words leave my mouth as quickly as I raise my hand which had the bottle in it. And with a swipe, the bottle landed on the face of Evelyn. Trust me, I put in a lot of force just to get that in place.Before Katie could do anything, I have kicked her right in the tummy, sending her to the ground. And that is when I start to move over to Evelyn because she is my main target. It was she who had the gut to slap me.I walk over to Evelyn who was on the floor with a swollen cheek and the cr

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
