Kalila had always been an outcast, bullied all her life. She died alongside her crush Apollo when Millicent, his jealous admirer, ran them down. But when she is reborn into the werewolf world with a chance to live again, she jumps at the opportunity. However, there is a catch: Kalila must complete a list of missions in ninety days, and the first is to protect the callous Alpha Ares from being poisoned. This sets Kalila on a path of danger, pack politics, and romance. She navigates the pack's inner workings, exposes traitors and conspiracies, and stops a rogue werewolf while trying to keep her true identity a secret. Along the way, she becomes torn between her loyalty to Ares and her growing feelings for the group leader plotting against him, Jahdiel. With danger lurking around every corner and love complicating everything, Kalila must complete her missions, save Ares, and choose between her loyalty and her desire.
View MoreKALILA POV I looked up at the moon and asked, "Will Nova still be with me?" "Nova dies with you as Dahlia." The goddess replied. I cleared my throat and took a deep breath. "I wish to stay here and live as Dahlia and Ares's Luna," I said, and something like a heavy weight was lifted off my heart. The satisfaction I had been looking for just flooded into my body like a fucking tsunami. The void in me was filled to a plethora, and the smile I had been struggling with formed on my face. This was it, and this was the discovery of myself I had been searching for all this while. I was meant to be here, with Ares and the rest of them. "Very well, Kalila, your wish has been granted." She beamed at me."Just like that?" I asked, hoping an out of the body experience would happen. Like something magical to signify it was done."Just like that," The moon goddess said; it was the last I would hear of her for quite some time. I watched the moon fade as it ascended back into the dark void; sl
KALILA'S POV The moment I blacked out, I knew that was it, that was the end of "Dahlia" and the return of Kalila. I did it! Three months, three whole months of torture and endurace, and love and pain had finally come to an end. I was in something like a dark hole; all around me was darkness.But something wasn't right, something wasn't right with me; I didn't feel that satisfaction; I didn't feel that plethora of happiness I had always pictured that I would feel when this moment finally came. There was a void in me, an emptiness that only increased as I felt myself growing further and further away from the Crescent moon pack, from Ares, Jeremy and Angela and Melissa, and everyone who wasn't trying to kill me, and the only question I could ask myself was 'Why?' Why was it like this? Did Nova's departure cause the emptiness in me? It could be.Nova was already a part of me; I loved her; even when we didn't see eye to eye; even when I didn't heed to her advice, I loved my wolf. I
ARES POV I sat in my study; my fingers were shaking as I smoked cigarette after cigarette. My mind was in complete turmoil; all my threats were gone, all of them. I expected a happily ever after with Dahlia; even though I knew she wasn’t who she claimed to be, it suddenly didn’t matter anymore. My love had reached new heights for her, and all I wanted in this whole world was for her to remain by my side. But I wasn’t battling just any werewolf or Lycan, and my obstacle was the Moon goddess herself.“You can’t lose her, Ares. You have to do everything within your power to keep her.” Leo said. Although inside of me, his voice was as sad as Jeremy’s. “What can I do, Leo? It’s not in my hands anymore; if it was against mere mortals, I would have handled the situation and kept my Luna. How am I supposed to hold her back if it was the wish of the moon goddess to take her?” I asked the thought of Dahlia leaving for good didn’t even want to register in my mind. “Then there’s only one th
ARES'S POVMy heart lurched when Angela rushed into my study breathlessly. I stared at her with wide eager eyes, waiting for her to deliver the news that made her so tense and seemingly excited. “She's awake! The Luna is awake, Alpha Ares, Luna Dahlia is finally awake!” She kept screaming and I jumped up from my chair and ran out of the room. When I got to the door, only then did I slow my pace and tried to act cool and collected. Although I managed to pull it off when I walked in, my heart was beating wildly and crazily. My hands were itching to touch her smooth, austere skin, my lips were craving the feel of hers. Everything in me was channeled towards her but I was Ares, I had to be calm. Jeremy was coming back today from a healer, he had been heavily wounded from the battle and had to be rushed away. The doctors did their part but Jeremy still insisted on a local healer to ensure that the scars went away quickly. After Dahlia/ Kalila and I spoke for a while and I revealed tha
KALILA’S POVThere was something about the way the guards regarded me when they led me outside the palace. I only thought about it more the next day after I woke up on a pile of carefully selected grasses. When I had stopped struggling and accepted that Ares hated and rejected me, I just let the guards take me away. Outside the pack house, they had let me go instead of dragging me all the way and I walked out with them by my side with a little dignity. I couldn’t find Jeremy anywhere, he probably didn’t want to set his eyes on me either. The guards gave me a bemoaning look before they bowed and said, “So long, Luna Dahlia.” They still acknowledged me as the Luna, I had won almost everyone over in the past two months and a few weeks. I thought about Angela and how she would react when she figured out that I was gone. Perhaps, she would be as disappointed as Ares and Jeremy after learning about the secret I had kept from them.Regardless, I wasn’t going to leave so easily, I couldn’t
ARES’S POVThe sound of the glass on the wall was like a shrill cry of a baby. It came crashing down to the floor in splinters and I just stared at it with bloodshot eyes. “Fuck!” I exclaimed aloud and bit my lower lip hard until I felt a rush of blood.This couldn’t be happening, this couldn’t be fucking happening. How could this be? How could this be real? It was absurd, it surely couldn’t be possible that another person’s spirit would take over someone else’s body. It made absolutely no sense! I looked at Jeremy who still had the diary in his hands, then Jeremy looked at me. “She didn’t take the diary with her.” He said gloomily. “She’s Kalila, she’s not Dahlia. She…she confessed it to me and I’m sure as her close friend she must have done same to you. What did she say?” I asked, dropping to one of the couches in the room. “Wait, before you sit, get me a drink.” Jeremy stood still, not moving and not obeying my orders I squinted at him and cocked my head sideways in confusion
I let him go and took in deep breaths. “Alright, I’m not Dahlia, I’m Kalila. That’s my name and I’m not a werewolf either, I’m human. I was…I was killed by a girl named Millicent who awfully looks a lot like Wendy, that’s why I attacked her at the office party the first time I saw her. I was reborn into Dahlia's body, I don’t know how either. You have to believe me when I say that.” I swallowed hard, feeling a lump at the base of my throat. “It was fated by the Moon goddess, she gave me instructions and told me why I was reborn here. She also gave me conditions and a mission to fulfill before I can return to the human world. And that mission is to keep Ares alive, and I had just three months.”He shook his head in disbelief and bewilderment, “That’s fucking crazy, you’re fucking crazy!” He exclaimed and I had to hold his hand again. “Jeremy, that’s the truth. You have to believe me!” I said firmly. “I know it’s crazy, I know it’s difficult to believe but that’s the damn truth and I’m
KALILA’S POVJahdiel was crazy! He had to be but he was very smart too, I had to warn Ares. “Dolph! Drive faster! Please!” I suddenly yelled and Angela turned to look at me in confusion while Dolph stepped hard on the gas pedal. “Ma’am, is anything the matter?” She asked.“Everything is the matter, Angela, every fucking thing is the matter!” I replied hysterically.When Dolph parked the car, I didn’t wait for Angela to get the door for me, I sprang out and ran into the house. “Where is he?” I wondered as I didn’t see Ares in the living room. I ran to his study and threw the door open, he wasn’t in there either.“Ugh! Where the fuck is he?” I exclaimed with frustration and panic as I ran up the stairs. I walked into the bedroom and that was where he was, seated at his desk with a very grim expression on his cold face. “Ares!” I exclaimed and ran towards him.There was nothing stopping him from believing me now, our relationship had blossomed and there was trust and love between u
KALILA POV “Leaving already, Lisa?” Melissa asked and the beautiful lady nodded quietly and walked out. I stared at Melissa quizzically and she sighed, “That one is a keeper for my brother, that’s his favorite whore. She lets him do anything with the handcuffs, whips and his teeth, they’ll make a brutal couple. But I forbid it, I won’t be able to sleep at night with her screams.” “Hmm…” I nodded. “He has quite his range of women.”“And he’s behind us right now, what a creep.” Melissa said, looking past me and I turned around to find Jahdiel staring at us at the foot of the stairs. “You usually plunge into a heavy sleep after…you know…that…so what are you doing here?” Melissa asked.He stared fixedly at me, “I found out we had a guest, do you mind if I had a word with our guest?” He asked.Melissa’s hesitant eyes looked at me first and I nodded. “Well, seems like she doesn’t have a problem with it. But!” She pointed at him. “I won’t let you talk to her like that, I’m sure you reek o
