Killian's POV

“Sometimes I think she's a witch…”

The bourbon—which isn't my go-to choice—burnt my throat so much hotter than regular vodka did. “This tastes like the shit hole of hell itself..”. I muttered.

“Well, you asked for the strongest stuff I had and that is it. Sorry, but this is what poor people like me drink.” Stephen chuckled, switching the bottle for a much colder one which I appreciated with a nod of affirmation. Then I realized he could have read my gesture as me conceding that he was poor.

“By the way I don't think you are poor. You aren't, your apartment is actually nice. Comfortable is the word.”

“Yeah…” he came to join me on the joint couch, “I guess you can say that.”

“It can't be that bad having your parents over.” He chuckled lightly. I know he didn't exactly know my parents so I didn't blame him.

“You don't know my parents. If you did, you would know why I'm chucking this shit down instead of being at Ana’s place right now.”

    Author's POVEsther paced in the marked hallway of the hospital she worked in, her chest was beating faster than it was a few minutes ago as she kept calling the same number over and over while pacing back and forth. She still wasn't able to prescribe the possible whereabouts of Katie's mother's wolf and the alpha was beginning to crack down on her as Beta Crowell wouldn't let her be. He had just left her office after she convinced him to consult a higher and more experienced Autopsy doctor to whom she had transferred Hannah, Katie's mother.Her accomplice wasn't picking up any of her calls and it was starting to get on her nerves. She dialed his number again.He picked up on the second ring.“About fucking time!” She snapped first, the acid in her phone was enough to crack the mic.“Good morning to you too, Esther.” His voice came through the other side.“Don’t you fucking dare sass me after the shit I just had to go through for your ass? Did you do it?? Did you get it done??” She r

    Killian's POVI sighed. Not in the soft ‘I-have-to-chill’ but in the ‘I-need-a-break’ way.Stephen has begun working on Katie's case again, which was actually the whole intention of coming to his place so we weren't walked in on by the vultures—if that word even existed. I stretched out on his dull blue couch that didn't match the brown rug on the floorboard. To be honest, his entire house was cozy but a bad color riot.“You can't keep sighing like a woman who has all her kids in ca oma while I'm here doing all the wor,” Stephen said from over the couch. I could imagine the look on his face, that of disapproval. He would shake it and make a pitiful sound afterward. “tch..”There it was…“That’s the whole point of hiring you my guy, if you haven't given it much of a thought. That's why you get paid to rumble around the pack's gossip till we find out the exact issue—”“Hannah Christine Martins didn't get a burial. And there is no record of being cremated at any of the mortuaries in the

    Killian's POV“Hey…” I said to her the moment her door swung open. She was in a jade green face mask and blue bathrobe that slit down her chest exposing the curves of her fair breasts.“Well, don't just stand there, give me a kiss or something and come in…” She leaned in for a kiss and I made sure to make it short before pushing her aside gently, letting myself in. Her apartment was dimly lit with soft French music playing in the background. She somehow made her suite appear even more cozy than mine.“What should I get you?” she muttered into my ears from behind, her breasts pressing into my back. I could feel my pants tighten almost immediately from the contact.“Water!” I blurted the words out in a thin voice that I wasn't so proud of. Ana walked in front of me, a slight look of disapproval on her face as she repeated, “Water? Seriously??” “Yeah. I already had some strong stuff to drink so uh, I'm good I guess…” She didn't push further, nodding at my statement and exiting the leav

    Killian's POV It wasn't my proudest moment but I wasn't gonna take it back. It felt somewhat like a payback for inviting my parents over without my consent.I could imagine it, the yellow tape at my back as the crime scene was investigated, if only this went wrong.I mindlessly searched for my phone while simultaneously searching my memory for the last time I had seen it. My brain was more lazy than my fingers were. Thankfully, I found it in my front pocket. I dialed Stephen’s number and he picked after the third ring.“You just left my place, Killian. What could you possibly want?” I could hear the wrecking fatigue in his voice.I shook my head, a sad attempt to clear the overhead haze that kept swinging me in directions I didn't want to fall in. I decided to rest my back against the wall outside her suite, looking side to side to see if anyone was coming.“I think I just did something shitty and I feel sick in the depths of my stomach..” I muttered into the phone.“You mean aside f

    Author's POVKillian couldn't sleep.It was the morning of the gala which they had used basically two weeks to plan. Well, most of the planning was done by Melissa and her team while he just approved their budgets while asking himself, ‘Will Mother like this?’Some part of him wanted to please his parents even though he knew that would be like Ice skating on a volcano. A man who had achieved success like his father and a woman with that much ego and OCD could never truly be pleased. He rushed through his religious morning routine, staying longer in the gym so he could work out the restlessness that wormed its way into his muscles.He was able to make it to the office before it was 11 am. Only a handful of his workers were around along with Melissa who was in casual clothes for the first time.“Woah…” Killian muttered, holding on to the door handle as he watched her type away on her phone while she was still in some kind of pajamas.“Are you wearing pajamas?” He had to ask after not b

    Katie's POV My belly crumbled for the third time in a row. I haven't gone downstairs for Breakfast yet, which was like four or five hours ago. I don't know how to explain it because I was definitely hungry but the butterflies were way bigger. It kept me on my bed staring at the speech paper Melissa had printed out for me the other day at her office. The fold lines were bold, telling that it had been neatly kept until my anxiety needed something to feed on.Maybe I was having cold feet, it had to be. I couldn't face Donald and Joanna, I feared they would see through me, Joanna especially. Some days I could swear that woman was a freaking witch and wouldn’t confess to it.I found myself craving for my workplace, company, anything really that just sitting on my bed and waiting for the clock to strike 7 PM.I couldn't do it anymore, looking at the clock every two minutes or scratching the edge of my nail with my teeth, so I picked up my phone lying somewhere on my bed and dialed the firs

    Melissa's POV I ended the call abruptly. The bag containing Katie's outfit was still dangling from my hand. I exited the shop only to find her standing on the other side of the gallery looking into her phone while two other boys stood beside her. At first, I couldn't tell if she was with them or if they just happened to be standing close by till one of them spoke to her.“Shit shit shit…” Why did I end the call?!I looked back into the store, people still looked at me wearily.“I am fine,” I said to them and everyone went back to what they were doing.Thinking fast, I dialed her number again. She picked it up immediately it began to ring“Hey, sorry for that, I kind of bumped into someone and my phone fell but all is good—” An older woman strolling by gave me a judgemental look.“Mind your fucking business.” I snapped at her in a lower tone.“I should mind my fucking business?” Katie repeated perfectly even though I had covered the mic from being heard.“No!

And those shoes—”“They are called Converse, Mom. Sure you have heard that that is what people wear to casual occasions.”My mother rolled her eyes, complaining about something else while I had decided to take a longer route by leg to My Café.Yes, I was making Mr and Mrs Huxley Brown take the road by foot to My Café where I had promised them it would be a decent place to have lunch. In my mother's book, My Café wouldn't even make it to the top 250 decent restaurants and diners she has been to all over the world. The numbers weren't randomly guessed, she actually made and self-published a lethal article about the several restaurants and diners she had visited over her three months relaxation spree.“Are you sure you are going the right way? I can't see a single hint of anything remotely fancy, just dandy and old.” S

    Killian's POV “I actually like her.”I blurted out. The car went silent, only the sound of a live engine and the dull voice of the radio presenter filling the air. The rest of it was pure silence and awkwardness.“Fuck…” I said out loud. Not to the fact I just confessed my feelings for Katie but because It felt good. It felt good to admit it out loud for once that I found every moment with her thrilling.“I don't think you know this but you weren't exactly subtle about it on the trip, you know that, right?” Stephen asked, looking at me through the front mirror. The same mirror I used to flip him my middle finger.“Well you try having a mate you are destined to be with where you can't control how you feel, what you feel and when you feel it. And when your other comes as close as ten inches from you, you can smell their soul. It's that deep.” I said defensively. I hated how it seemed as if I lacked self control when that was like my greatest fort.“Killian, are you saying Katie is you

    Katie's POV I exited the room since that wasn't where my bag and toiletries were. My face was flushed and the memory I had closed the door on, burned alive in my head. I wouldn't stop playing. The moist feeling between my legs told me what to do to make it all feel better. I almost pressed down on the door handle out of a last minute decision, only to decide against it. Self control, self control, self control… I reminded myself as I walked into the next door. Jessica looked better. Her skin wasn't as pale and she was in another hoodie and sweatpant. The only difference between what I wore usually and what she was wearing now was that she had sweatpants on. I gave her a weird look through the mirror as she took care of her hair while she just stared back awkwardly.I was ready to give her some hate till I remembered that she had gone through an operation just the previous day.“This is probably a good time to ask how you are feeling?” I broke the silence. “Less pregnant and in pai

    Katie's POV How did we get here…Killian was asleep beside me on the bed and the time was reading 4:03 PM. Honestly, I had thought I would sleep longer considering how much of it I knew I needed. I turned to look at him again, his thicc carved eyebrows were more relaxed now, his face appeared more calm without those stress lines popping out. His lips were parted but not too wide enough to slip a finger pass. I thought I had the whole thing figured out.I had decided that I was going to continue whatever game this was—generally, he has been super nice to me. And In return, I was also going to be super nice back to him. I wasn't going to put as much energy he was putting in, I would only mirror back whatever he gave to me because I wasn't still sure why he picked so much interest in my life even before we knew we were mates.This morning changed everything I knew and felt towards him—In a good way also.I never thought I would need to say it out loud but I think I have unconsciously f

    Killian's POV“You guys think I joined this willingly?!” Esther cried. Katie stared down at her with disgust before bending down to her eye level.“Ma’am, asides the fact I do not give any fuck about what you think…I also plan on finding out myself every single detail from you even if it takes my last breath.” Katie said with so much hate that left me appalled. If I didn't know better, I would say she sounded just like me. It was exactly something I knew I could say.I felt Melissa's harsh gaze on my side profile but I refused to look her back in the eye. There was no way I was giving her the satisfaction of being right about not allowing Katie to get attached with the whole revenge scheme.This was until she came to my side by the window.“Are you seeing what I am saying or do you want her burning down the whole pack before you believe me when I say you cannot let her anger supercede her. You think I didn't know what I was talking about?! Look back, look at her!!” She forced me to t

I barely stepped on the last one when I heard my name being called.“Hello Ryan…didn't know you fancied snooping around, I would have also had you tied down.” The look in Killian's eyes was far from friendly. I didn't even make it back behind the door of the room I was sleeping in when he swept me off my feet.“Got you.”~~~~Katie's POV I could tell I needed a good sleep when I saw Killian dragging Ryan by the collar down the stairs like a thief. My body didn't react, my mouth wasn't agape nor did I feel any emotion. I was completely numb. I think using my ability came at a cost. I felt numb on the inside like I was a plain white sheet floating across the river to Florida. The way I made sense

    Katie's POV And she did just that. Her groaned out so loud, my attention immediately went to Jessica and Melissa who stood by the corridor watching the ordeal take place.“Are you ready to answer the question?”She nodded her head eagerly. Her face contorted to show how much pain she was in and it only made me smile. Images of myself sleeping off in the waiting room two months ago as I waited and pleaded for a meeting with her but was instead awarded with some petty excuse from her secretary. I refused to feel bad for what I did to her.“So answer it.” She struggled to sit right since her hands were tied behind her. There was not much space or freedom to move with Killian behind her and myself in front of her. “Your mother…Hannah. She was the best in everything. I was second best. No matter what I did, she was just…better. I didn't know how she got away with barely surviving on her little finances and still managing to Ace all the classes. She quickly became the professor’s pet. I

    Killian's POV “HELP!!!”She screamed so loud my ears felt the need to bleed. I had the heavy urge to punch her to sleep again but that in itself wasn't time effective which meant I needed to design another device to make her shut up.“You didn't have to scream so loud like you are that innocent.” I continued to drag her towards the center of the living area. The look on their faces, especially that on Melissa. She didn't look like she was happy to be seated in our midst. I rolled the roller chair out and placed it in the center, putting her before it and sitting on the chair.“You don't need to cry now. Damage has been done.” I said while trying to catch my breath. Pulling her body across the room with my strength at its reserve phase, proved to definitely be a lot more difficult a job than I thought it would be.“You pulled me by the fucking hair, down a polished wooden floor. Do the math why my skull hurts and I need to cry!” She screamed at me. Her voice cracked like that of the i

    Melissa's POV“So…how long has it been—” I checked my time, “ten minutes…wow.” We have been sitting around for the last ten minutes waiting for the both of them to return since they went to make sure that Katie’s abilities worked. I could see that it was going to take more than just some finding out when the time started running past 5 AM.“I didn't want to seem like I was bringing the impatient one but thank God someone said something. How long does it exactly take to ask a question?” Shedrack asked, standing up on his feet and going to turn on the TV that had been turned off since I arrived here.“Guys just give them some time. I am sure they have other things to sort out asides Just knowing if her powers worked alright.” Stephen muttered over his laptop screen that was seated between his legs.“There has been a functioning TV all this while and no one thought to turn it on?” I asked, looking at the smart TV displaying Netflix.“Because no one asked. And besides we were all busy tr

    Killain's POV “Okay…just one more time.” She agreed. I could hear her heart beating like a fair maiden soft drum, but the intervals were so short, it made me worried why. I took a brave step forward. Yes, that's what it was, a brave step. No one was so confident in someone else with this kind of ability but there was a huge part of me that trusted her. Cade trusted her and that just happened to push me into whatever madness this may turn out to be. I cleared my throat and it happened to get her attention as she raised her eyes to mine. She blinked, going down to look at my hand and then my eyes again. I see her swallow hard. “You can ask any question, as deep as you want. Nothing is off book. Just don't ask me to kill myself because I would find a way to kill you instead.” “Killian!” Cade yells at me but I ignore him. It was something that wouldn't leave my head. I just felt the need to say it out just to put it out there. “I figured…” She chuckled nervously. See?! You made t
