Alex knew that her brother still hadn't gotten over Kira's death, and she knew that she was still blamed ever and for what had happened, Alex I tried to explain to him on multiple occasions that this wasn't Evan's fault, he had only been trying to avenge her, at that time he had believed that Kira was the one responsible for the death of their child, so he didn't deserve all the hatred she got. Of course, Alex missed Kira greatly, they had been friends for a very long time after all and she loved the girl like her own sister. But what was done was done, at this time they could only make sure that something like this wouldn't happen again. But Asher was insistent on taking revenge on behalf of Kira. He didn't even know what enemy they were going to face. Her father had said something about the Dark Wolves, Alex had only heard about them from this store as her grandfather used to tell her when she was a little girl. The Dark Wolves were said to be the first-ever wolf pack to have exis
Knox smiled down at the little wolf. "You've been walking around so much, aren't you tired? How about you come back with me? " it's a lot better than roaming the forest alone. Knox wasn't so surprised when he saw the hesitant look on the girl's face. They were both strangers and she was afraid he might try to do something to her. He rolled his eyes at her fear, if he had any bad intentions towards her then he would have done something a lot earlier. " don't worry, you can trust me with your honor"He let go of her and started walking in the direction of the cave, he was confident that she would follow, and she did. Kira was still very wary of the stranger, but you also knew that you wouldn't be able to get out of the forest without his help, so if she went back with him then she would have the hope of convincing him to let her go. Knox was a lot faster than she was, so when she arrived in the cave he was already settled on the space beside his pool. There was a knife in his hand and
Kira felt Knox kissing her skin, she was surprised because she hadn't expected him to do something like that. They were strangers, she didn't even know his name for goodness sake. " What are you doing? "" Kissing you "" But. . . We don't even know each other " Kira tries to push him away but he holds her hand, he brings it up to his lips, and kisses her knuckles. The action is soft and overly romantic, Kira finds herself blushing. When he comes to kiss her again she doesn't push him away, or even complain. She knows that she shouldn't be doing this, making out with a stranger should be the last thing on her mind, but right now the warmth of his body against hers was soothing. Knox pulls himself away from her. " Do you have someone you care about? Apart from your father "The first person Kira thinks of is Asher. Memories of all the passionate nights they had spent together left her feeling bitter. Because she still wasn't sure whether Asher was on her side. She couldn't bring herse
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
* * *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
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
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
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
