I have to prepare dinner for you so the emperor won't rip out my heart." She answered with a serious face.Kiara chuckled. "He can't rip out your heart.""Why do you say so?" Kira asked."You are mated to his kind, have you forgotten who you are? You Keira, is the mate to the emperor’s personal bodyguard." She reminded her.Kira managed to smile. "I hope he thinks the same way. Please go ahead to the living area and watch TV while I get busy in the kitchen."

Chapter 1 Call the cops TEXAS, UNITED STATE OF AMERICAThe door bell jangled repeatedly. Kiara stepped out of the bathroom and she frowned at the small alarm clock sitting on the bedside drawer. The red light on the clock beeped 10:30 p.m which was already passed her usual bed time. She came home too late because more people had showed up at the salon today. Two of her workers didn’t show up at the salon because they had family functions to attend respectively. She had almost regretted giving them two days off from work because their absence was so obvious and there wasn’t enough hands to tends to the customers.Kiara was getting ready to sleep after a long day at the salon and now someone was at the door.“Who the heck has a plan to destroy my poor doorbell!” Kiara grumbled as she wore her night wear and pulled on the robe and secured it in place with a tight knot. She rushed to attend to whoever was at the doorShe swore that the person would hear few harsh words from her bef
Chapter 2 The life of Kiara Jaden TEXAS, UNITED STATES OF AMERICAKiara would have heaved a sigh of relief but she stopped abruptly as soon as she walked into the sitting room. Carlos was there standing by the window. Her eyes widened in shock when she saw that the door was intact.Carlos came in through the window. “Lucky you, I didn’t have to break down the door.” He smirked before it was replaced by a devious grin.Her heart beat accelerated in marathon at the sight of him. “My dear...Kiara.” Carlos started towards her while she took a step at a time backwards.Carlos raised his hand up in surrender. “Relax, I won’t hurt you. So just be a good girl, who knows? I might give a very big candy.” He shrugged.Kiara stopped to study his expression. Carlos wasn’t sincere so she knew better than trusting his words. All he ever did was manipulate her into believing his words.“I know you don’t believe me but—““Why are you here?” Kiara mumbled.Carlos arched his eyebrows. “You don’
Chapter 3 Existence of a Vampwolf THE CELESTIAL IMPERIAL“Vaewolf, Lycanpire, Vampwolf, Cucubuth. Legends speaks of them being Hybrids. But a Vampwolf has the most history ever written and has been passed down from generation to generation. Not a myth but it is real.” She stopped, looking up at the seven years old blonde haired boy who sat in front of her with curious eyes wanting to know more.“A Vampwolf?” He arched his brows.She hummed a positive response. “Are you sure you want to read a book like this, Dwayne?”“Yes mother. Please continue! Please continue!” He pestered.She heaved a sigh. “A Vampwolf. Half-Vampire...Half-Lycan. But stronger than both. A cross breed deadlier than any werewolf or vampire. Werewolf-Vampire hybrids are the mixture of a vampire and a werewolf. They possess the powers of both species, making them twice as powerful. And—““Wow! Mother!

Chapter 4 The Osvaldos TEXAS, UNITED STATE OF AMERICA. KJ BEAUTY EMPIRE: KIARA’S OFFICEKiara’s head snapped up to look at whoever just opened the office and she found Lila standing at the entrance with a bright smile on her face.“Hey best friend!” Lila giggled as she strolled further into the room.Kiara managed a smile on her face. “Good afternoon, Lila.”Lila raised her eyebrows at the unusual way her best friend just acknowledged her presence. “Is that the right way to greet me? Woah! You didn’t even offer me a seat! So rude of you, CEO Kiara! Is this how you treat a good client?” Lila questioned in feigned annoyance with her hands on her waist as she stood at akimbo.Kiara glanced up again from the laptop screen. She was busy taking a free spa lessons online.“Let me ask you a question.” She paused.“Yes I am listening.”“Are you here today as a client or a best friend?” Kiara asked.Lila thought for a moment. “Such a cunning question.

And I do not have any friends except you. So you are hanging out with us at the club tonight.” Lila stated in excitement that one would doubt she had just lost a job.Kiara rubbed her temples gently. She hadn’t seen that coming if not she would have come up with a better topic to distract Lila. But at the same time, Kiara know that wouldn’t work on Lila who can get too persistent whenever she wants something to go her way.“You can’t say no...remember.” Lila rushed to sit next to her.This isn’t the first time Lila was asking her to hang out with she and Daniel.

Chapter 18 Setting our kind free THE CELESTIAL IMPERIAL"On that day he walked up to me and asked to be a friend, he was so hard to resist that I had fallen for him at first sight. He found out about my love supernatural books especially vampires and it made him happier. But I should have suspected his identity the day he asked me if I believed vampires existed or a human mating a vampire was real but I told him none of it existed. It was so hard to figure his identity..." Her voice broke off as tears dropped down her cheeks."I was deeply in love with him and wanted to spend the rest of my life with him so in excitement I asked him to introduce me to his parents if he wanted something serious and he said he will after I agree to his proposal.""He proposed to you?" Kiara asked."Landon proposed to me and I said yes." She held on to Kira’s hands in an attempt to comfort her."I didn't know what he did to me but when I woke up I found myself here. At first I was placed in the h
Chapter 17 Soft life of a Luna THE CELESTIAL IMPERIALThe Alpha King’s suite was like a mini five star hotel if there was something like that. Should Kiara Jaden count herself lucky that she is mated to the ruler of this beautiful imperial? She pondered as she walked to the beautiful living area. Kiara saw pictures she assumed to be the Alpha King’s family hanging on the white walls."Good morning, Luna.” Masculine voices greeted in unison.Kiara’s head snapped up, her eyes meeting two men who are identical except for the fact that they have different hair colors. Twins!"I am Samson." The man with brown hair spoke up."I am Lawson!" The other one on black hair introduced himself too."The Alpha has assigned us to be your personal bodyguards." They said and bowed in unison.Kiara raised her eyebrows in confusion. "What?! Bodyguards?!"“Yes Luna.” They chorused.Kiara pondered on the reason why she needs bodyguards. "Are you humans too?!" She asked.The men exchanged glances a
Chapter 16 A luxurious life THE CELESTIAL IMPERIALThe direct ray of sunlight on Kiara’s face made her open her eyes slightly and realization hit her almost immediately. She is alive! Kiara caught a glimpse of someone walking around as her hands reached out to itch her eyes for a clearer vision.‘Where am I?!’ She thought for a second.She was on a soft surface, somewhere warm and comfortable. Then Kiara realized that she was naked beneath the sheet. Her eyes widened. ‘Who undressed me?! How on earth did I end up on a bed?!’ She bantered within."Good morning, I am glad you are awake!" A feminine voice said.Kiara yelped in surprise at the presence in the room. ‘Who is she?!’ She tried to force her shock under control but failed at it. She screamed.“Please relax ma’am. I mean no harm. I am just here to help you.” The girl rushed out her words.Kiara stopped screaming. The girl was beautiful. She had a round face, brown colored hair and pretty hazel eyes.“What is happening?
Chapter 15 She is mine! THE CELESTIAL IMPERIALKiara peered up to look at the devil and she zoned off as she took in his features. His sunrise gold hair was packed in a manly bun, beautiful silver eyes framed with dark eyelashes and super toned skin. His chest was bare with no clothes, it revealed solid wall of muscles around his upper body, veins protruding from his perfect skin, rock like abs and lean hips. He is preternaturally and supernaturally beautiful as an hybrid. And here she was drooling over the wicked, cruel and heartless Alpha King. A devil like him shouldn't have such great looks!"You all were in such a hurry to get these humans that you couldn't wait for me to come pick out my choice.” He said, taking his seat on one of the big couches in the room but this one looks more like a throne."My Alpha King, we all know you don't keep pets!" Mikel chuckled."What if I wanna change my mind?" The Alpha King picked up a glass filled with blood.“We know how much you
Chapter 14 Men in High Council THE CELESTIAL IMPERIALIt has been seven days since Kiara was brought into this world by a dangerous vampire who has no regards for humans and he also has this strong desire to make her his food source or sex pet. Kiara haven't set her eyes on General Darius since he left the torture room. Although he had said they would meet at the High Council meeting but Kiara wished they would never see again. She prayed to God to not let anyone in the high council to pick her as a sex pet.And if Kiara was to choose out of being a food source, pet or slave, she would opt in to work as a slave to the vampires or werewolves. At least she wouldn't have to walk around naked or donate her blood to the blood factory.They haven't heard about Zendaya which makes Kiara feel guilty for what happened to her and she hoped that Darius didn't kill her that day. Jasmine didn't come around to clean up her wound which made her feel dirty coupled with the fact that t
Chapter 13 The Healer THE CELESTIAL IMPERIAL"How many so far?" Darius voice boomed across the room."Twelves lashes General!” One of the female vampires answered.The hot throbbing pains on Kiara’s back was unbearable. Her vision was already getting blurry and her head was spinning in circles."Bring water…” Darius ordered when he noticed her expression.Someone splashed water on Kiara which revived her consciousness. Kiara was glad that she still had a bra on her body at least no man was able to see her naked boobs and a black tight on her thighs unlike other prisoners in this room who were standing unclad while receiving punishment. This place is hell."General Darius, how about we undress her completely." One of the female vampires suggested.Kiara’s head snapped up to look at Darius even though she was weak. Her eyes pleaded with him not to give in to the suggestion. "No...no...I beg you…don't undress me." She pleaded in a low tone."That is better. You are begging me.
