Kyra decided to answer him and engage him in his question and answer section. Maybe in this way she will be able to get through to him. Ignoring his questions and trying to make him snap out of his head would only lead to their deaths faster. She could not let that happen. Speaking with him in this condition where she couldn't even breathe properly and felt like her heart would soon combust in her chest would be hard, but she needed to try her best.“I did not slap her, not because I did not want to obey you or something. I refused to slap her because I did not want any more trouble than what I’ve caused already.” Kyra told him as she began gasping loudly, trying to drag air into her lungs through her mouth. It was a difficult position to be in because she still had to use her mouth to speak.Kyra has elapsed into a state of shock when instead of him telling her to get down on her knees before Roselyn to apologize and beg for mercy, he did the opposite and asked for her to return Ros
Kyra did not know for how long she cried but through it all, Anton kept consoling her and telling her that she was fine. When there were no longer any tears in her eyes to cry, she kept on sniffing until she finally gathered the courage to raise her head from Anton’s chest and adjust her weak body in his arms so that she was sitting up.She could feel different prying eyes on her back but all her attention was on Anton who looked so relieved that she had stopped crying.“Are you okay now?”“Yes,” Her voice came out crooked, and her cheeks colored in embarrassment at the sound and at the fact that she cried in his arms. She cleared her throat and tried again, “I’m fine. Sorry about that.”She immediately began to wiggle so that she could get up from his lap, but Anton did not release her. She was not surprised at this because it has already occurred a number of times now. He wouldn’t let her go until he wanted to.“Kyra?” Alpha Anton called softly, but she could meet his gaze.“I’m fin
“What?” Kyra let out a loud gasp of surprise. Did he just ask her if she wanted him to give her a position in his pack just like that?“Do you want me to give you a position here,” he repeated, still playing with the strand of her hair, twisting it around his finger and releasing it, then repeating the process over and over again. He made it sound like giving her a position here was so easy, like it was not a big deal. It really wasn’t because he was the alpha and he could do anything he wanted.“No, please I don’t want any position in your pack,” No way was she going to let him raise her position when she’s already made up her mind to live low key. She was doing this for her baby rather than for herself. If she remained living in the background like a slave then soon enough everyone would forget that she existed and she would be left to live her life in peace.Today already showed her that she was unfit for the high society life like her father had always told her. All she had to do

“What do you want?” Kyra tilted her chin up to ask him, shoving down the stupid thought about hugging him.“What do I want?” Anton asked her as he stared down at her, “What I want is for you to explain what’s going on in this little head of yours. I can see your brain turning and calculating. I only said you belong to me, and you flared up.” He used his fingers to tap her forehead.“Nothing is going on in my head. I don’t like the fact that you said you own me. You don’t own people, you only own things.” “And if you bought that person with money?”Okay, Kyra did not know how to respond to him. What she could only say was, “My father did not have the right to sell me.” “But he did, didn’t he?” Anton asked her and a suffocating feeling filled Kyra’s chest at the question, making it difficult for her to breathe.“Let's drop this topic, shall we? I’m tired and I need to rest.”Anton immediately pulled away from Kyra causing her to sigh deeply in relief. “Yes, of course. With everything
The next morning, Kyra woke up because of a stomach upset and jumped out of bed. She rushed to the bathroom with her hand covering her mouth and her head tilted back. She fell down on the cold floor as she threw up in the toilet. Her insides felt like they wanted to rush up to her mouth as she continued to vomit. Her vomiting turned into dry heaving when there was morning more left in her stomach.When the worst of the spasms subsided, she leaned back on her knees, trying to control her irrational breathing. She’s only vomited a few times and experienced morning sickness when she first found out she was pregnant. It stopped as soon as she got here and she forgot about it until this morning again.Kyra used the back of her hand to clean off the sweat from her brows. Then, she slowly rose to her feet, moving slowly to the door. Only for her to get nauseous once more, causing her to run back to the toilet as she threw up once more. After a few minutes of torturing vomit, she flushed the
Alpha Anton peered out of the window in his office as he looked at the overgrown trees. An intense longing came over him, and he suddenly wished that Kyra was by his side. It had only been a few days, and she seemed to have found a way to get under his skin that he wanted to see and always argue with her. He loved the fire that burned in her eyes when she got angry and also the upward tilt of her upper lip that he found to be so adorable. It wasn’t normal one bit."What is it about you that makes me want to be by your side at every moment?" He whispered to himself.A knock sounded at the door and he slowly turned towards it. "Who is it?" He managed. He could always tell who was at the door from the scent but he was too distracted by thoughts of Kyra."It’s Abraham, alpha," came the response."Come in,’ Alpha Anton said quietly.He moved away from the window to stand in front of his chair where he rested his palms on the table, still standing. He was too restless to sit down so this wa
"Why would you make such a comment, Alpha? I’m a bought slave, and there is no way I can be a Luna at this point. Stop trying to mock me more than is needed. I don’t find it funny at all," Kyra looked taken aback that he would even say such.Her own father did not even think that she was worthy enough to be his daughter, Tristan saw her as a tool to hurt her father but Anton thinks she is worthy enough to become a Luna. Shocking, but Kyra felt happiness fill her heart at the fact that Anton thought that she was good enough to be someone as important as the Luna of a pack, even as she tried to tell him not to repeat such a statement.Anton was about to say something, but a guard moved towards them at once. Kyra sighed as she took a step back, but she didn’t leave. She looked at the woman who was still crying profusely.'I can’t believe the Alpha thinks that you’re worthy of becoming a Luna after all that’s happened so far including the Tristan incident,' her wolf grumbled.Kyra sighed
Kyra struggled to pry her eyes open, only to be met with a blurry, unfamiliar haze. She frowned, disoriented, and attempted to roll onto her side. A low groan escaped her lips as she slowly turned, her vision clearing to reveal the unfamiliar yet familiar space of her own bathroom. Confusion gave way to alarm as she realized she was lying on the cold, hard floor.She slowly pushed herself into a sitting position as she struggled to remember how she got to the floor of her bathroom. Her head was pounding with a terrible headache and her eyes felt hot and puffy, her nose was congested, forcing her to breathe through her mouth, each ragged inhale a struggle.She’d woken up this morning to take her bath and go for a little work since she was tired of always being indoors and only going out for her training. She missed having Tanya and Anton around, the thought brought tears to her eyes as she took her bath but she did not let it fall.After bathing, she was wiping her body with her towel
Two whole days and she’s not caught a glimpse of Anton and Tanya. The remaining part of the ceremony was cancelled and everybody returned home to their various packs amidst grumbles and complaints. For the next week, all everybody including the maids in the palace spoke about was the upcoming duel and Kyra could not find it in her to sit still. She was agitated even when she knew the duel was not until a few months time. She wanted to find Anton so that they could talk but he was always busy, so she began to suspect that he was actually avoiding her. Tanya included. She could not blame Tanya though, she lost her temper the other night and it was unforgivable. Tanya was her friend and she won’t intentionally do anything to hurt Kyra, especially as she knew all Kyra has been through and she has accused Tanya of doing exactly that. There was no excuse for it. When she saw that she could only meet with Anton when he was ready to stop avoiding her, Kyra decided to return to her training
“It does not matter if she’s the daughter of an alpha because your father is also an alpha or have you forgotten?”“My father was an alpha but never for one day was I trained. I’ve always been weak and according to my father, that was my punishment for killing off my mother.” Kyra’s voice broke at the end and she felt like slipping to the ground and bursting into loud sobs but she held herself back from doing so. She has told herself after the death of her child that she would never cry again. Instead, she will make all those who've made her shed tears cry.Tanya was shocked at Kyra’s confession and a look of pity appeared in her eyes.“You don't know what you've gotten me into, Tanya.” Kyra raved, her eyes bright with anger, “Lisa is a mad person. Can’t you see how she scratched her own face and hands in such an ugly way? For her mate to have been mated to me in the first place, danced with me in front of everybody and still declared that he was more worthy of having me than Anton i
Everyone gasped, Kyra included as she was shocked that Tristan would even make this kind of offer when he knew that alpha Anton was stronger than he was. What was he hoping to gain by this charade? And he was even putting her in the middle of it? What in the name of the gracious moon goddess would he even want to have a duel with Anton for her? He wanted to show that he was worthy of being her mate? The same man who got her pregnant and abandoned her as a form of revenge against her own father? What was wrong with him? He left her first and was even aware that she was sold off then him, together with his Luna, Lisa, made sure she lost her child so what was he going on about? Wait, he must still want revenge against her father. Yes, that must be it because there was no other logical reason as to why he was doing this. So he would give himself up to death just to satisfy his quest for revenge? Well, that makes the both of them but she was not letting Anton participate in this tras
Kyra was only able to breathe freely again when she was back in the ceremonial hall but then, she spotted some people that were huddled together and she could hear them speaking angrily.Curiosity kills the car, they say and Kyra was a curious cat. Even if she knew that going there was a wrong decision she still wanted to know what was going on and what they were talking about.“She hit and scratched me! I told you that accepting this invitation was a bad idea, Tristan but you refused. She’s still hung up on you!” Lisa screeched in anger. She had tears running down her cheeks that were filled with claw marks when Kyra got to the gathering and was able to squeeze her way into the middle.Kyra was shocked at the way she met Lisa. Her appearance was very different from the woman she left in the bathroom. Kyra could not understand what was going on as she did not hear what Kyra had just said but she felt immense satisfaction at how Lisa was looking. The marks on her face were not really
Lisa had a smirk on her face as she stared at Kyra’s outfit from head to toe. Kyra felt anger and hate fill her but she controlled her emotions and decided to ignore the other woman. After she was done, she tried to walk away, but Lisa got hold of her hand, dragging her back until she hit the wall. Anger sparked within Kyra and she wanted to immediately attack Lisa but she knew that it won’t end well. She could almost envision Anton shaking his head at her.Kyra winced when Lisa's fingers dug deep into the flash of her wrist but quickly schooled her expression when she saw the smirk on Lisa's face. She was not going to allow the other woman to see her in pain.“You really have a lot of nerves, you slut,” Lisa sneered with hatred written all over her face as she finally released Kyra’s hand from her hold.Kyra wasn't moved by the insult, it wasn't the first time that she was getting such insults but she was not letting this one go, she just scoffed at her statement. “Are you seriously
Since Faith refused to say whatever it was that she wanted to but promised to show Kyra instead, she decided to let the matter drop. The two women both sat in silence for a while as Kyra tried to gather herself together and get her wolf calmed down and then they returned back to the ceremony because it was still ongoing and because Kyra did not want Lisa and Tristan to think that they had succeeded in chasing her away.Kyra did not care how things were playing out, she would still make sure to get my revenge back for everything they’ve done to her. She would also take something very valuable from them the same way they took her baby who was the only family she had left in the world. She would destroy them just the same as they've destroyed her life. Kyra vowed to bring Tristan down and make him beg for mercy but none would be shown to him just the same way he did not show her any mercy. Kyra just hoped that her wolf would cooperate with her this time and not try to come up and cause
“No, calm down,” Kyra tried to suppress her wolf, but it was impossible. She could feel her fangs elongating and her claws coming out, so she turned to flee down the hall. “Kyra! What’s wrong?” She could hear Tristan's voice right behind her and knew that he was following her. “No, no,” Kyra was chanting in her head, but her wolf was refusing to cooperate. She should never have accepted to dance with Tristan in the first place when she knew that all she wanted to do was sink her claws in his chest and bring out his heart then feed it to dogs. Kyra wanted him dead! She should never have listened to Anton and danced with him. Now, her wolf was going to come out and get in a fight with him. She was not only going to scatter the ceremony that was going on, she might end up dead because Tristan was an alpha and by right, he was stronger than she was. Though she knew that Anton would not let Tristan kill her, she did not want to ruin their plan. Kyra kept shoving people out of her w
What in the name of the moon goddess was going on? Everything seemed to be happening in the opposite direction of all her plans and Kyra was having big issues with keeping up.First, she almost lost control of her wolf and ruined the party, but Tanya’s entrance brought an end to that. Secondly, Tanya wore the same gown as her, and it caused people to start whispering bad things about her. Not that they were not already going so but it just seemed to increase their hate for her.“How have you been? Are you fine?”Thirdly, she was not seated with Anton or Tanya. She was alone and had to do most of her things herself, and she just had to be seated on the same table as her own father and directly beside him too.She had been too distracted by Tanya, who was explaining why they had the same gown on and listening to her apology to pay attention to the people sitting around the table she was assigned to. Why was her seat on the same table as her father? Who sabotaged her like this?“Kyra? Yo
