" They want to meet together with me, i have no idea what Kerina is planning, but it can't be good since she had to kidnap my children for it." Killian at the letter in his hand, was holding himself back from tearing it apart. He had expected that the Queen of the rogues would reach out to him, but he never thought that she would make demands. She wanted him to go to the Rogue pack without any escort or protection, if he didn't do as she said then she would hurt his children. It was clear that this was a trap, but there was nothing he could do. If he wanted Alex and Asher back in one piece then he would do as she said." It is very dangerous to go to their village alone. Even as a Lycan, you can't possibly win against dozens of them "" I know father, but at this point, I have no other option but to do as she said. I can't anything happen to them. I had promised that I would protect them no matter what, and I will fulfill my promise. Besides, as vengeful as Kerina might be, she knows
" Children are the last thing I would want to have. They are a liability, if you don't have them you don't need to worry about them being kidnapped "" You must be so happy then, that you don't have any children "" I am delighted, " He said. Zayn noticed the amused glint in his brother's eyes, there was a look that he had also noticed on Lisa's face when they talked about children. It was the kind of look that told him they knew something he didn't. Zayn didn't like that look. " What? "" Nothing. I hope you continue being this ignorant and happy brother. I don't think you even deserve to have children at all "Zayn didn't give a response, he hadn't anything to say. Killian was right, he didn't deserve to have kids, and he didn't want them either. They continued making their way through the tall canopy of trees and bushes, there was a clear path that led to the village which lay deep in the forest. They passed by some wild animals who didn't dare attack them on sensing what they wer
They got back to the palace, and Lisa excitedly went to embrace her children, she was crying tears of joy when she saw that they were unharmed. " What happened? how did you get them back so easily " she asked him. Lisa had at least expected there to be a fight from the Rogues, but they had come back safe and sound, she was grateful for that but was also worried that something else might have happened. Why would Queen Kerina bother kidnapping the children if she was just going to let them go? It didn't make any sense." It wasn't anything important. Kerina just wanted us to supply them with some things they needed, their pack is going through a very hard time lately and she was afraid that no one would help, so she had decided to draw my attention to them " Killian said, he reached out a held Lisa's hand " I apologize Mi sol-ache, it's not ideal to help the people who hurt you and the children, but I can't forget my duties as the Lycan King, they might have been outcast from our Kingdo
The wedding went by nicely, Lisa and Killian exchanged vows and promised to love each other till death do them part, perhaps their marriage might last longer this time. Kira couldn't help thinking that all this was very romantic, she found herself having fantasies of what her own wedding would be like. Each time she thought of her wedding her eyes always went over to Asher who was seated beside his sister in the front row, she doesn't know why but she always pictured him as her prince charming. But she knew her feelings were one-sided because Asher had shown her how much he didn't like her. She had waved at him earlier but the only response she got was a glare." Don't worry, we will be going home " Her dad said when he saw the gloomy expression on her face, he thought she didn't want to be here anymore. He would have left the reception if he wished, but he didn't want to seem rude. Besides, Killian had said that he wanted to introduce Kira to Evan." Alright Daddy" Kira said. She tur
I3 years later....Kira waited in a restaurant for Evan to show up. She had been waiting for nearly an hour now but her mate was nowhere to be seen. She took out her phone and called his number, the phone rang for a long time but he didn't pick up, she had sent him several texts but he didn't even read those. She sighed. What could he possibly be doing? She knew he had taken over for his mother as the leader of the Rogues and that he had duties to fulfill. But he should still have time to spend with her, their making ceremony was coming up very soon, and she at least wanted to down a bit of time with him first.She and Evan had been a couple for as long as she could remember, it had started as friendship when they were Nine, be Evan had told her he liked her at 15. At that time Kira had already developed a huge crush on time, it was almost as big as the one she had on Asher. But she knew Asher would never want her like that, so she accounted for Evan's proposal. But she somehow felt l
Kira met up with Alex the next day. They spent their days in the shopping Mall. With both their dads being rich, they could afford to buy whatever they wished. Kira wasn't a very materialistic girl, she preferred her clothes casual, Alex on the other hand was a fan of shoes, she had an entire collection of them. She looked stunning whenever she wore heels, with her blond hair falling behind her back and her piercing blue eyes, no one could resist looking at her twice. Kira didn't feel inferior, to her, the opinions of those people didn't matter. The only person she cared about was Evan and he always told her how he thought she was the most beautiful girl in the world. It was enough for her." We should buy this, it's a matching necklace " Alex suggested looking over at a pair of beautiful diamond necklaces. Both looked shiny and expensive, they were joined together by the locket which each formed half piece of a heart which was made complete only when brought together. It was awfully
Evan went back to his hotel feeling helpless and angry. He remembered the call he had received from the Lycan King, Killian was the one who had asked, more like demanded that he hold the wedding tomorrow. He already knew about the relationship between Evan and Alex, but now that things had gone serious between them, Killian was afraid that it might affect the engagement between him and Kira. He never loved Kira, he had always thought of her as a friend, but not that he was forced to marry her tomorrow he couldn't help but despise her. He wished he had never gotten engaged to her in the first place. His heart belonged to Alex, she was the one he loved and he wished to have her as his mate. However, a promise had already been made that he and Kira would get mated. It was also a way to further boost the development of the Rogue pack. Even though the rest of the Packs had treated them a lot better ever since Evan became friends with Alex, a marriage would further make things easier for t
Kira traveled with her father to the Lycan Empire. Ryan wasn't very pleased by the change of events, but he didn't make a fuss out of it either. The palace was filled with people, mostly the servants who were putting the reception avenue in order. " Did he give you the reason why he changed the wedding date?"" No Dad, he said the King decided it. Evan however didn't protest, I'm not sure he is very happy with the change of plans, however. Maybe he has a lot of work to do and needed to focus on them first "" Work, right " Ryan snorted " If you decided that you don't want to marry him, you can tell me and we can call this wedding off immediately. I don't want you spending even a moment of your life with someone you don't love "" We've been together for so long, if I didn't love him then I would have broken up sooner," Kira said. She knew her father knew about her fascination with Asher, he was the only one who knew. So he thought that she only agreed to marry Evan because he was h
Asher stepped out of the car. His gaze was focused on Kira the moment he was out, he saw that she wouldn't even meet his gaze as she stood behind the golden-haired man. His fist clenched as he walked towards them, hoping to make himself as intimidating as possible. He couldn't help feeling betrayed by the fact that he wasn't the first person Kira had reached out to when she got out of that damn forest. He didn't even know how long she had been out, how come no one had told him? If it wasn't for him finding out himself then he would have probably gone on thinking that the love of his life was still dead." What are you doing here? " Zayn asked him. The man was shooting him a murderous look as he moved in front of Kira and Knox, shielding them away from Asher like the Lycan king was a monster out to kill them. " you shouldn't be here!"" Why not uncle? Why shouldn't I come to see Kira for myself? After all, no one was willing to inform me about her still being alive. I've been searching
Kira had arrived with Knox some time ago, her father had been very happy to see her just like she had expected. But she didn't even need to explain to him how she had survived, he seemed to know to have known already which made her a bit anxious. She was afraid that if her father already knew she was alive then it would mean that Asher and his family must have found out as well, it would only be a matter of time before they came for her right. But Ryan had assured her that apart from him and Zayn no one else knew about it. Knox had stuck to her side the entire time, he didn't say anything and had only watched our interaction with her father. Ryan glanced at him and he immediately knew that this had to be the dragon Boy the dark wolves were after. The golden hair and eyes gave away his identity.After making sure that Kira and the Dragon were settled, he immediately increased security in his mansion. He was also afraid that the Lycan family might find out about Kira and they would imme
Asher is relieved because finally, his hard work is paying off. He was on his way to finding the love of his life, the Dark Wolf had told them the reason why Kira had been taken and he had even given out the location where Evelyn was being kept. The man however refused to confess about where the rest of his pack members were. But Asher was confident that with time the man would give out, Afterall Ace's torture method was not light and Asher was even surprised that the Aloha hadn't spoken up yet.Ace came to find him that morning, there was panic on the man's face and Asher knew immediately that something had been done wrong. " He was killed, " Ace said. He led the way to the dungeons and the Lycan King was greeted with the heavy stench of blood. Their captive was lying in a pool of his own blood, his eyes were wide and lifeless, and a deep cut stretched across his neck. Asher glanced at the discarded knife in the corner of the room and sighed." How did they get in?"" I have no idea.
Slowly, a month passed by. Kira had already gotten used to her new life, and now that she thought about it life here wasn't really as bad as you thought. Knox had been very good to her, he gave her everything she needed. From time to time she would still bring up the topic of getting out of the forest, he would always shut her down before, but now she could already see that his reluctance was facing away gradually. She would tell him interesting stories about her life outside and the place she visited. And that was what had managed to catch his interest. He wanted to see a lot of the things she had mentioned, and Kira was willing to show him.And finally, Knox had given in. " we can go outside, but only for a little while. We will come back as soon as you see your dad, is that fine with you "" Yes, that's perfect " Kira was so excited that she hugged him. He wrapped his arms around her tightly, he buried his nose in the crook of her neck, and took in a deep breath of her scent. Kira
Asher and Ace exchanged looks again. Asher didn't believe what this man was saying one bit, at first he had been willing to take his words seriously but now he was beginning to wonder if everything the man had told him so far had been nothing but lies. Was he also lying about Kira being alive? Maybe he had let himself be captured so that he could deceive them. Asher felt anger and he took a threatening step towards the man. " Do you think we are stupid? I gave you a chance to save your pathetic life and now you are lying to me?" " I SWEAR! I am not lying!"" You expect me to believe that a Dragon resides in that forest? The same forest that has been in my kingdom for decades?"" You have to believe me, Your Majesty! I swear that I am not lying. The reason we took her in the first place was to have her lure the Dragon out of the forest. I have no reason to lie to you, please you have to believe me. "Asher's fist clenched by his side, he really wanted to punch this man hard in the fac
There were places in the Forbidden Forest she hadn't explored despite having walked around it for days. Or maybe Knox just hadn't wanted her to find them yet, Kira came to learn that he was able to do things like that, hide places he didn't want her to see then reveal them later on when he wanted her to find them. The little things she had read about Dragons never gave them away as magical creatures. Sure at one point they were considered the most powerful shape shifters that roamed the earth, but she never knew they could do magic. Whenever she asked Knox about his powers he would just tell her that it was something that came along with behind a mix of blood. She had no idea what he meant by that. Dragons didn't mate with other species, so their bloodline was always pure. But then again maybe that was a part of history she hadn't read. Maybe Dragons did mate with others, maybe Knox was a crossbreed between a dragon and a witch, that would explain his powers. But she had never really
Zayn went to find Ryan the moment he learned of the truth, it wasn't easy for him to do this because he remembered Evelyn's warning, she had begged him to not tell anyone or else here is life might really be in danger, but he couldn't just stand outside and watch his daughter suffer. Zayn knew that the only person who might love Kira as he did was none other than her adopted father. Ryan had been the one to his Kira and he had taken good care of her, Zayn still owed him a lot and he hoped that this would be enough repayments for him. Besides she didn't want to have to rely on Killian to find his daughter, he didn't want his nephew to know about this matter as well. Zayn left Moon-Dust and went to the human world to see Ryan, he was surprised that Ryan's bodyguards let him into the house willingly and didn't even try to stop him or question him, he wondered if Ryan might have known about his coming. Zayn made his way into the house, he found the person he was looking for seated in the
* * *Evelyn knew Zayn was looking for her, she had to have known. What he wasn't sure of was how she had managed to stay hidden for so long. Zayn was sure that Evelyn wasn't a very smart person, if she was she wouldn't have done what she did. He had always found her incredibly annoying, when they had got caught and charged with the crime of wanting to kill Killian, it wasn't the thought of going to prison that annoyed him, but the thought of being stuck with Evelyn again. Thankfully they hadn't been locked up together. He never liked her, she had always been a tool for him to use, and when he had no use for her he wanted her as far away from him as possible.So when he heard of her escape from Prison, even though he knew where she had hidden he didn't bother telling his brother about it, because he never wanted her to come back, he didn't want her to have the chance of meeting their daughter, he had wanted to keep Kira as far away from her despicable mother as possible. But if only h
A week after his coronation, Asher focused all his attention on recruiting more men into his army. His parents had left on a vacation, because now that his father wasn't king anymore they wanted to make up for all the lost time they couldn't spend together due to how busy Killian was. Alex had also moved away with Evan since their marriage, although they still lived in Moon-Dust and his sister could afford to come visit anytime she wanted. But Asher didn't wish for her to come back, she might only be a distraction to him if she did, now that he was alone in the palace he didn't have to constantly worry about another attack on his family. He could focus fully on his thirst for revenge.So far the Dark Wolves hadn't made any action. Evelyn was nowhere to be found, which made him blame his uncle for letting her go in the first place. All this would have been much easier if they still had Evelyn in custody, she would be the one to answer the questions he desperately needed to know. For ex
