KALILA’S POV

I got bored of waiting for Jeremy to come back, Ares’s acetic mood completely changed and thickened the atmosphere the moment he walked in. I had a feeling that whatever he wanted to say to Jeremy would be very important and I had the impulse to listen to what they were saying.

At first, I resisted the urge to go and eavesdrop on their conversation, but this was one of those rare occasions Nova was a bad influence.

“You're burning with curiosity already, it wouldn’t hurt to catch a bit of what they are saying and what’s making your mate angry.” Nova said in that smooth cooing voice.

She wasn’t wrong, I really wanted to know what they were talking about but what if the door suddenly swung open and Ares caught me? What would I even tell him I was doing there? No, it was too much of a risk.

“Don’t you know how Ares ends a meeting? The moment he rises to his feet, the meeting is over.” Nova said. “Common, just go.”

Nova was right, it wouldn’t be difficult for me to figur

    KALILA’S POVI was so shocked as I just stood there, I saw the look of surprise in Ares’s eyes, it was obvious he hadn’t expected it but why did he just sit there? Why did he just stay still and let her kiss him? The anger in me was burning fiercely as I saw the look of satisfaction in Wendy’s eyes, the bitch! I stormed into the living room angrily, it wasn’t me that was in full control of my body anymore, my emotions took over completely. “What the fuck did I just see?” I yelled, glaring murderously at Wendy.She almost jumped from the couch with shock as she saw me, her face went completely white. Ares remained calm and only a flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes. I felt like strangling Wendy at the moment. “It’s not what you think Dahlia.” He said, getting to his feet.“I guess I’m color blind then, or short sighted and what I saw wasn't Wendy kissing you!” I yelled, my voice laced with anger and bitterness. “Right, Ares?”Wendy rolled her eyes and got up, “Why are you making

    ARES’S POVThere was something about Kalila’s timing, she always had to walk in at the worst time possible. Wendy had visited and we talked about the party, she wasn’t happy with the way I had left. “Ares common, you didn’t even stay up to ten minutes.” She complained, pouting at me. “What happened?” “Something came up, I had to leave immediately. After all, I told you I won’t stay long and I would send a driver to come and get you but Dolph came back empty handed. Why didn’t you come back with him?” I asked. “I thought something pissed you off and you had completely forgotten about me, so I hitched a ride with Ralph. I even saw the look on your face before you walked out. I didn’t want to interrupt then because I thought you both were talking about business, because that’s how you look whenever you’re talking about business. So I continued talking with the group of ladies with me, when I turned again, you were gone. Ralph said you left suddenly in an upset manner, what happened?”

    KALILA’S POVI laid on the bed in frustration and slowly arranged my dress back into place. Ares was just evil, the complete definition of a fiend, why would one arouse a woman and leave her half way? When we were at it, I had completely lost myself in the moment, Ares's touch sent a ravaging fire throughout my body and all I could do was give myself to him wholeheartedly.The bastard. I could have just slept there, was this his own way of apologizing for what happened the previous day? If it was, then he was very petty. The sky wasn’t too dark so I decided to head out to the garden to catch some fresh air, there was still a want in me for Ares. What he did to me was torture, I remembered the stupid question he kept asking me. What was my idea of love? He probably did all that just to show off, how egoistic of him. I sat down on a garden bench and I saw the beautiful marigolds at a corner, growing peacefully and beautifully. I hated them. I sat alone for sometime, then someone pulle

    KALILA’S POV I had already gone white with fear, so it was a great relief when I looked up and saw who I saw, it was Jeremy. He had a very intent frown on his face and his eyes stared past me with a suspicious glint. I almost tripped and fell but Jeremy was very quick, he reached out a hand and grabbed me. “Be careful, Dahlia.” He said as he pulled me up, his voice wasn’t nice at that moment but impatient.Suddenly, Wendy and uncle Lawrence turned sharply and stared in our direction. Once again Jeremy’s lightening reflexes came to play, he grabbed my waist with one arm and pulled me to him while his free palm covered my mouth. We blended into the darkness immediately while Wendy and uncle Lawrence squinted with a frown in our direction. He let go of my mouth slowly and I whispered, “Let’s go! They’re done with the meeting.” He shook his head, “No, not yet, just watch.”I looked at them again, truly they weren’t done as they kept talking, there was a smile on Wendy’s face. The sam

    ARES’S POVI still regaled in the way my last meeting with Dahlia had gone, despite my intentions just to leave her stranded, I was also stranded myself. Leo was right, it was just an ego trip that satisfied neither of us, it still satisfied my pride though. I remembered the desperate look of lust in her eyes as she looked up at me, I could have had her there and then. “But you decided that your ego needed to be satisfied first.” Leo said. “Don’t be so bummed, eh Leo? Dahlia's not running away, things will be sorted out.” I replied confidently as I walked up the stairs. I got to the bedroom and waited for sometime, expecting Dahlia to walk in any time soon but she didn’t. Then I heard a car pull into the driveway and I looked at the time. The darkness was beginning to cover the sky, who was visiting this late? I didn’t bother to check, I just laid on my bed, waiting for a knock on the door. Three minutes later it came and then a maid walked in and bowed to me. “Alpha Ares, you

    KALILA’S POVI was still stuck on the reason for Ares’s sudden anger, the glint in his furious eyes had frightened me. Something made me think whatever it was, it was either caused my uncle Lawrence or directed at Jeremy, it was probably both. I didn’t want to get involved, I would ask Jeremy what the issue was the next day. “Dear Kalila, you’re so naïve sometimes.” Nova said as I walked up the stairs.I stopped, “What do you mean by that, Nova?” I asked.“Are you saying it’s only anger you saw in Ares’s eyes?” She asked.What else was there? I thought, wondering what she was driving at, then I nodded. “Yes, that’s all I saw. From the looks of things you saw something else. Share it with me then.” I said, I stood rigidly, listening with rapt attention to Nova’s words.“You've already come to a conclusion, it’s either it was caused by his uncle or directed towards Jeremy. You’re not too wrong, it’s definitely the latter. His eyes held anger, jealousy and a tiny glimpse of hatred. But

    KALILA’S POV“Are you sure you’re okay, ma’am?” Angela asked as we left the pack gates, there was genuine concern in her eyes.All I did was look out of the window, each tear that dropped I wiped it off immediately. I needed to hold myself back, it wasn’t worth crying over. I had been a fool to fall for Ares during this stupid mission when all I had to do was protect him. Maybe Wendy was right, maybe she would always win, after I saved Ares and I was back in the human world, who would be left? Wendy of course, she would take my place here and become the Luna after I’ve saved Ares’s fucking life.As those thoughts clouded my head, I remained silent for a while, waiting for something. An advice, a warning, a consolation, but none came.“Why aren’t you saying anything? I know you want to say something so why the hell are you silent?” I asked Nova. “Common, go ahead and say it!”“Relax, Kalila, it’s not a crime that you fell for Ares during your mission. You see him everyday so it’s very

    ARES'S POVNow I was really upset with Wendy, I just stood outside as the cloud of dust around me faded, watching the car drive away. I could already picture Dahlia crying and cursing me for 'cheating' once again and all it did was make me angry at Wendy. The previous day I had seen very little of Dahlia, I wasn’t even aware that she and Jeremy were bound for the Blue Moon pack today. When I got back from the meeting, it was in the early hours of the morning and I was already awake before Dahlia was. My first visitor of the day, was of course the one that would ruin the rest of the day for me, it was Wendy. “Wendy? What are you doing here by this time?” I had asked when she walked in with a smile on her face. “I haven’t seen you in a while, Ares. I came to check on you because I was missing you.” She said, perching on the edge of my desk instead of taking a seat like normal people did.That had made me squint at her but I said nothing, anything that made her comfortable, she coul

    KALILA 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

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

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.
