Katie's POV

I stood outside Westview Avenue like a girl who was early to Prom night. I didn't know if I was expecting Melissa to pick me up herself or if there would be a designated driver. The road was fairly busy, with cars passing by every minute or so.

At first, I stood on my heels, maintaining a strong posture so no one mistook me for a roadside chic even though they weren't common around here.

After thirty minutes passed and no one showed up, Melissa wasn't picking up her calls and I was beginning to feel like a fool while simultaneously getting worried. What if something happened to her? I didn't know anyone who knew her and I also didn't want to show up at the place without her. I searched the purse that Barbara had lent to me, taking out my phone to see if any calls had come through, but there were none.

“What happened to you, Melissa…” I muttered under my breath, my eyes darting around for any signs of her.

"I am sure she's fine, you just have to calm down," Lucy said. "Wor

    Killian's POV What the hell was that?” Stephen came beside me, watching them walk away towards the entrance.“I have no idea…” I said to him, The faint trace of her scent still leaves me a little light-headed and dizzy. I should be bothered about Katie and Melissa's sudden alliance but instead, I was mesmerized by how gorgeous she looked, yet simple and elegant. Unlike the video from her weekend getaway, she looked more her age in the dress I had picked out for her just like I thought she would.“I have a feeling you do, you just haven't realized it yet…” Stephen tapped my shoulder, snapping me out of my thoughts.“You weren't even here a few seconds ago and you already think it's my fault.” I looked at him with an accusatory look.“I was here long enough to see Melissa stare at you like one of the worst people in the world, and we both know she's super chill. I would be worried if I was you…”This time, his words made sense. Now my head was clear of the haze Katie had brought upon m

    Killian’s POV “Hey boo…” Ana's voice slipped in out of the blue, her hand snaking around my waist as she claimed my lips on the center floor.I have never been the type to say I wish the ground would open up and swallow me whole because nothing ever intimidated me. Until today. I didn't feel intimidated, I felt more out of control than ever and the kiss almost turned into a full make-out session before I broke it off by gently pushing her off by her shoulder. A whiff at her breath and I knew she was at least tipsy if not drunk.“You are drunk!” I gritted under my breath, managing to maintain a forced smile to the fellow attendees who thought this was a show of affection.She chuckled, very confident with a bitter cold scoff slipping out right after. "And you are what, perfectly sober?” She adjusted the hand of her dress. Now that she had pulled back from me I could study her well as the amber light from the glass sculpture fountain nearby danced on her outfit, it was a variation of K

    Joanna's POV “What the actual fuck?!!” The girl with the tied-up bun and fancy hairpin was Katie indeed. The next picture was Loretta holding her by her forearm while smiling deeply into her eyes. How did she get there??How did she end up with Loretta??With all she had heard about Killian's mother, everyone pretty much knew how difficult she was to please. But the upside was that if you were in her good books, you got all the benefits and shit. A good review and mention in her popular Magazine head article which was an immediate boost in social status and popularity. And across the pack, popularity in good favor meant power, sponsorship, and pretty much every other bonus you could think of. I would have smashed the iPad into the tiled floor if I didn't need it to show as evidence to Donald.I leave for a fucking day and they slacked, losing sight of what was important. I abandoned it all. The wine, hot bath, and massage stormed downstairs straight into Donald's study where an Om

    Killian's POV “You finally decided to talk to me now?”“Don’t be mistaken, Killian. I share no pity for you whatsoever, you can sit and sulk for all I care. If anything, I might be here to only make one or two things clear.” Her voice is bold and stronger. It was different from what I had heard in the past week about this event.“By all means, take your shot,” I urged her. She dropped beside me, a considerable amount of distance still sat between us, enough for three people to pass between us without having to come in contact with me or herself.It wasn't the best time for me to hear whatever she had to say but I wanted to hear it anyway, my mother already had the streak, and Ana had taken her shot so I thought, how bad can this get?“At first, I wanted to drop out from being your publicist and manager earlier, but then someone advised me that I would only be conceding defeat and I wouldn't be able to prove myself worthy—”“You are taking advice from a 17 year old highschooler??”“Y

    Katie's POV Melissa pushed me towards the stage. It was a gentle push by the shoulders, just a nudge in the right direction. But for me, it felt like a push towards a fight I wasn't prepared for. I raised my head to the golden amber lights above the platform, wondering how I never realized how bright they were up until this moment.You got thisYou got thisYou got this… I repeated in my head as each clutch of my heels familiarized itself with the fine synthetic wood that made up the short flight of stairs onto the podium.On the receiving end was Mrs. Loretta Huxley, Killian's Mom. I had no idea when she climbed up the stage but her presence there only intensified my nerves.She gave me a welcoming smile before fully taking charge of the stage.“Welcome back everybody for the meet and greet. Trust you met one or two amazing people like I did—” She turned to me beaming, and I returned her smile through my nerve racking state. I knew she could see the nerves I was feeling because sh

    Katie's POVI made Melissa stop the car a few blocks from my house. All the way there, I kept busy with the multiple scenarios of how badly this could end for me.Now that the mansion was a stone's throw, I could feel my heart hitting hard against my chest.“Are you sure you are going to be okay?” Stephen asked. He was seated in the back seat while I was in the passenger seat. I wasn't really familiar with him but he came off as a harmless person. I shook my head, “I don't know…”“Do you need to be escorted, I don't mind taking some of the heat.” He suggested. I appreciated his effort for someone whom I just met today, though I had a feeling he already knew who I was.“No, it's okay. I think I have to face this on my own since it was a decision I made myself.” I assured him. “You are not alone, Katie. You got us. Anything that happens in there, put one of us on a call and we will fall in to swoop you out.” Melissa said, giving me a reassuring smile. “You want a piece of advice?” He

    Killian's POVI had no idea how fast she could walk until I had gotten to the end of the stairs and couldn't find a trace of Ana. A part of me badly wanted to look up, see Katie once more from my point of view if she had a look of concern too or she absolutely wanted nothing to do with this mess.My thoughts about Katie faded to bits when I heard a howl of pain. I rushed to the scene allowing my ears to lead me in the direction of the scream. And there she was.One of her heels had broken off and she had tripped to the ground. I rolled my eyes. She most definitely was too drunk to be doing this.“Save me and save you the embarrassment, let's get back inside or let me take you home.” I offered, the exasperation was clear in my voice. I clearly didn't want to be here when I had two of the closest people in my life right now being currently mad at me.“What do you care..” She muttered, her voice weak and barely audible. I sighed.“Maybe I don't care but one thing I do care about is my i

    Killian's POVI found a way to leave after the humiliating breakfast which just entailed Ana talking about all the things I did wrong. All of these things my mother believed. She spent another thirty minutes advising me on how not to end up like my father. For the first time in a long time, I had nowhere to go to for solitude. I wasn't sure Stephen would really want to see me now of all times and the way I made him would still leave him scarred. I unconsciously found myself at My Café where Katie works. There is a sign on the outside that they would be closed for today due to some health violation policy. The entire scene looked like something my mother would definitely have a hand in. She only ate here yesterday and today, they had a health violation policy warrant.It almost sparked into another moment of rage, the way she only seemed to appeal to chaos in the name of bringing order to a room she had no hand in making.I got back into my car and drove further up the hill to a point

    Katie's POV We arrived in what looked nothing less of a castle with a Glass art dome at the top of it. I had no idea buildings like this existed outside the Red pack. Killian packed and ran around to open my door for me and help me down. I took his hand gracefully and allowed him to lead me right up to the stairs that led into the Castle-like building. I see why he was also excited. The place didn't seem like the kind of place just anyone could visit, but aside from that, the guards at the huge brownish gold double wing door in front of the jade green castle-like building all looked at me with eyes of amazement and wonder. The moment we were behind the huge door and it closed heavily beside us, blowing a gust of wind at our backs. “Is it just me or are those guards staring at me like I am some known person around here?” He looked down at me and smirked. “How long have I been asleep?” That's the first question that came to mind. Because it takes time for gossip to spread, but if it

    Katie's POV I knew I was passing out a way longer than I was the last time because by the time I opened my eyes, not only did it look like another day was setting through the window of a strange room, but I was also laying down in a strange bed. A strangely comfortable bed. I turned my head to the other side, away from the window and saw the bed extend as far as it could. Where am I? I touched my face and pinched my cheeks. It wasn't a dream either. So this was definitely real, but it still didn't explain where I was or what was going on. But I had a feeling I was safe. I mean, the big room with not too many things in it smelt good, fresh too. Like it had just been cleaned up and sprayed with some air freshener not too long ago. It took at least a few minutes of snooping around before it clicked that I was in Killian's room. Or at least this was a room where he kept his stuff. Who am I kidding, his briefs were literally in the second layer of the drawer that was slapped against t

    Katie's POV He immediately turned to face us, his eyes expanding as he looked to his minion for help but he continued to stand still. “Don't just look at them goddamnit, do something!!” He screamed desperately while the man continued to stand as still as the trees outside the tent. “I can't…” The man whimpered. The light illuminating the inside of the tent came from an orange bulb I had no idea was there the whole time. He looked between his minion, and then Killian and I, confusion fueling his expression to twitch between shock and annoyance. He couldn't bring himself to understand why what was currently happening seemed so strange. “Jules, I swear to—” he trailed off. “Killian??” He blinked twice, then his eyes went wide. “Katie…” He turned back to Jules, “But you said…” He trailed off again, turning back to us, obviously trying to understand what was happening. “I will help you catch up since your brain can't do the job. Beta Charles. You have been caught. Tada!!” Killian wa

    Killian's POV I drove both my car into the woods opposite the bend that lent to the tent. I drove it up to a point I felt the visibility would be hard to notice in the thick of the night. The bus could stay where it was. It was a victim in the whole operation anyways. The other bodies I had to lift and dumb somewhere behind a large log of wood of a collapsed tree. After that, I would be left with dealing with whoever it was that was behind this operation. By the time I was back to the tent, she was sitting right in the center of the chair just as I left her, but this time, she lifted her head. Relief filled my body as I saw that she looked way better than I had left her. I mean, the swollen face was still sort of there but she didn't look like she was in pain. “Hey…” She said to me with a small smile. “You didn't think I was going to give in to them, did you?” She asked, after wincing at her attempt to smile. “I am just glad you are alive. My father would have had my head if somet

    Katie's POV Just like that, I was a little girl again sitting between my mother's legs as she took care of my hair because none of the hairdressers in the pack were willing to make the hair of the child whose mother was said to be proclaimed a witch. I remember having to cry to my mother every time I got treated differently. And everytime, she would have that one same sad look in her eyes that would fall to the earth. Some days, she would spill tears onto them, other days when she was drunk enough—she was not even close to a messy drunk—she would just laugh it off with more strength and ask me to sit between her legs. There she would tell me about stories I have heard over a 100 times. The thing about these stories was that even though they were the same and I have heard them over and over, over the years, they always improved in detail. There was always something new to be made clearer about her story and not once did I ever doubt the stories she told me severally regardless of the

    Killian's POV A whole survey began. Mel was alive. Even though my body was reeking of fatigue, I couldn't stop moving my burning muscles. I dragged both bodies I dropped in the woods somewhere farther away from the path that a car could come through in the woods, did the same to the bodies on the road while also checking their body for the mark of the special force. Each and every one of them had the mark, so it wasn't just a coincidence. They were all special force members acting like they were savages, under the control of…Anna Adam’s command, Shedrack’s mother. I always wondered how she was connected to all of this. Now I know how. She didn't have to deny it, It was clear now that she played her part in keeping me out of the pack. It was just sad that I was going to have to make an example out of her even after knowing her kid. I went into the car to check on Katie. I unlocked the door without announcing and they both screamed for their lives. “Hey hey…it's me!” I raised my han

  • Blessed By The Goddess: The Chosen Lusina Wolf   Chapter 154

    Killian's POV My senses heightened as I tried to feel all of my environment, but I knew that was panic slippin into my blood streams. The urge to control what was beyond you was always a good prove that you were in the enemy's territory. The calm before the storm was over. Heavy feet landed onto the ground next to me and I didn't hesitate. I went straight for the kill, punching a hole into the wall of the shadow being standing in the night. The cry of pain cut out by my other hand while one was stuck in his gut. His ugly male breath poured in my face as I tried to lower him to the ground in silence without letting the others know. I was walking into a blind fight in enemy territory. I had no idea how many they were or what they were up to, but I knew they were close. The watch tower was never too far from the main camp. I took a deep breath, rubbing my wet arm against the tree and making sure that it stayed that way, away from me. I didn't want to keep wasting time over thinking how

    Killian's POV One minute I am thinking about them, then next thing I know, they are flashing in my face looking straight out of a horror show. Katie's dark brown curly locks were wild on her head as she clutched onto Jessica, dragging her down just before I concluded the bend. I wasn't even done processing the fact that I had just seen them in the middle of the road, running in the middle of the freaking night. I collided with two bodies that forced me to bring the car to a halt. I couldn't help but wonder what just happened and where they came out from. One second the road was empty and now I was seeing at least four people. Their bodies dropped right in my face. I mean I was staring right at them when it happened and I wanted to pretend like it didn't just happen. It wasn't until Katie screamed at me, “Keep going! They are savages!” She really was the one I saw…I wasn't hallucinating. “Katie?!!” I called out to her, coming down from the car. “Killian?!!” She sounded so excited.

  • Blessed By The Goddess: The Chosen Lusina Wolf   Chapter 152

    Killian's POV I was on my way following the same route to Stephen's bunker. The drive alone was way better and driving my personal car out of that godforsaken pack gave me even more reason to not return. I doubted I killed Ana, the fall was enough to make her pass out but not die. Being she was actively betraying me, they would probably find her before she loses more blood than she can afford. Her body was well rested on the ground next to her very ugly flower vase. I refused to not feel bad or guilty about my intrusive thoughts on killing her. But I wanted a ‘I told you so’ moment with my parents after all this was over. I pulled out my phone to call Stephen since Mel wasn't picking up. She wasn't a fan of calling and driving and that didn't come as a surprise to me. Stephen picked up after the first dial. “Hey…are you guys almost here??” He asked the question I was sort of going to ask him about Mel. “No…” I started, staring into the blaring empty road before me. “I am coming al
