Chapter 89 Allie's POV Since the full moon, my relationship with Dylan became even more better. It was exciting and Dylan does know how to take my mind off things and it went beyond being intimate with him…I do have to say that it was part of it. But we made a deal not to fall in love with each other since we both hadn't found our mates. He didn't hide the fact that he wasn't desperate to find her, but he wouldn't say why. I agreed because I don't think my heart was ready for another heartbreak. Kaia didn't bother asking what was going on between us which was good since I might have lied to her if she did. She was going to be worried that the whole thing with Ryder was going to repeat itself and then she'd blame herself for even bringing the suggestion in the first place. And speaking of Ryder, I haven't seen him anywhere since the full moon which was three days ago. I know they were busy with the shooter and traitor situation but I've seen Caleb…who literally almo
Chapter 90Kaia's POV Nothing was more stressful than having to pretend that I didn't know what was going on between Dylan and Allie and then waiting for her to tell me herself. I couldn't talk to Dani because she was clinging to Caleb which was very much understandable. And I didn't want to ruin Nessa's fantasy about having a perfect mate or a relationship in general. I gave up trying to figure things out and set out to go look for Kieran but I barely took two steps from where I was sitting in the child's care when Dylan blocked me. “Shouldn't you be at training?" I asked him. Without answering me, he took my hands in his, leading me outside. This caused most of the members in the room to look at us, wondering what was going on. “You’ve been ignoring me, were you ever going to tell me?" He asked. “I mean, you didn't have to tell me, but I thought we were becoming friends at least.” I sighed, "it really didn't come up in our conversation. And I wasn't hiding it…from y
Chapter 91Aiden's POV “Why the fuck hasn't she been found yet?” I growled, glaring at the warriors in front of me. "She's an omega, how is she smarter than you?” They looked at each other, before turning to me, their body trembling as they fell to the floor when they couldn't provide an answer. “We're sorry, Alpha. We'll find her this time." They promised, but over the past few weeks, that was the only thing I got. They were going to find her but they never do…they couldn't even get a whiff of her smell anywhere. I was mostly going crazy since Kaia disappeared without any trace. My wolf, Jager was also mad at me for letting her go. But how was I supposed to know that she'd somehow escape from the dungeon. “Then you shouldn't have fucking put her there in the first place." Came Jager’s response, still sounding annoyed. She haven't reached out to her father or stepmom either, but they didn't seem worried. Even after questioning them about Melissa seeing her in the
Chapter 92Kieran's POV Everything was ready, the portion had been made, what was left was to put it in place and that was going to happen tonight. But to the warriors and everyone else who knew about it, it wasn't happening until next week. What happened during the full moon mustn't repeat itself. Caleb had thrown himself in front of me, knowing fully well that the effect was less severe on me. But according to him, he wanted to make sure I caught those traitors and if I'd gotten shot, it'd be hard to transport me. My command for him to rest fell on deaf ears, as he was in my office a day later, ready to get back to work. But I actually needed his help as the only other person I could trust decided was barely himself for reasons best to him. The door swung open and Kaia came in, her smell filled my nostrils, and a sense of ease washed over me. Her presence alone was calming, exactly what I needed at the moment. “Luna…” Caleb called, standing up to bow to her, someth
Chapter 93 Kieran's POV As soon as I got back to the pack house where Caleb, Dylan and surprisingly Ryder were waiting for me, it was time to leave. I also mind-linked about five other warriors including Scott, who used to be Kaia's bodyguard. They were the only ones I could trust and they were also part of the people who came along when we went to the forest for the flower. I turned to Kaia whose expression had changed to that of worry. “We’ll be back before you know it.” I assured her and she nodded. "Try to stay out of trouble…no jumping in front of poison or anything." She warned, her eyes landed on Caleb who just looked away. I smiled softly that she was still able to crack jokes, even though it was one we…he needed to take seriously. The plan was simple: lay ambush on them. They knew we got something that'll work against them, so hopefully they would try to steal it, to prevent us from getting anything. “We’re ready to head out, Alpha.” Caleb called, lo
Chapter 94 Kaia's POV I woke up with warm arms wrapped around me. Lylah purred softly as I leaned more into him, the warmth radiating from his body sent my body into a state of frenzy. There was no getting used to his touch…to the way I feel whenever he was close. My body had a mind of their own, as they melted, enjoying every second. Turning my body to face him, I was met with his eyes already staring at me with so much intensity and he offered me a smile once our gaze met. “Hey,” I whispered, my voice barely above a whisper. "Hey,” he repeated, matching my tone. "I love how your body responds to my touch.” He murmured, pulling me closer and I let him. No words needed to be said again as I enjoyed the cuddling. Who knows how soon moments like this would happen again without him having to respond to one urgent mindlink or something else. Soon, I found myself dozing and the sleep was very much welcome. The next time I opened my eyes, I was alone on the bed, but
Chapter 95Unknown POV I paced around the room, my feet pounding on the floor as I went back and forth and it was the only sound that could be heard. My jaw tightened the more I thought about it and my hand was folded into a fist. “How could they be so stupid?" I muttered, my voice low and deadly. My fist was itching to run into something…particularly someone. They were going to ruin everything I've spent months planning when I was so close to fulfilling it. The past few months, I've derived pleasure in watching them suffer, going around and trying to figure who I was. Dumb fools, how was he even an Alpha? That should be me, instead, I was cast to the side like a piece of trash to be forgotten. But that wasn't going to happen, I wouldn't give up until I took what belongs to me. The door opened and the culprit entered, his legs trembling as he took slow steps towards me. I rushed to him, grabbing his neck and my hand tightened around him, lifting him until his legs wer
Chapter 96 Kaia's POV Maria remained frozen like a deer caught in the headlights, a few of my dresses in her hands and her eyes didn't leave mine. I stood there, trying to comprehend what was going on, but I couldn't go past the mess made. “What happened to my things?" I asked, moving around, trying to pick my things, especially my underwear which were laying everywhere in the room. “I-I didn't d-do it.” She stammered, "I was coming in to c-clean up but I met the mess." She explained. At this point, I could already feel anger building up inside me. Maria had always been efficient, doing everything that was asked of her, and had never given me a reason to be suspicious of her. But considering the fact that the room was locked and if I needed her to clean up, I would have given her the key or something. After having a long day, the last thing I wanted to deal with was this. “Maria," I called calmly, “you want me to believe that you somehow managed to get into my loc
Chapter 138 Kaia's POV My heart was racing about what the witch was going to say, if the attack was the harm that was supposed to happen or if we should be preparing for it. Kieran assured me that it was going to be fine…and I believed him until we ran into his mom. Talk about being persistent. "You can leave, it's Kaia I want to see." I heard her say, since I was a few steps behind Kieran. “This was the type of cake I ate when I was pregnant with you, I'm sure she'd like it too.” Lylah snorted, “what does she take us for?" She asked, rolling her eyes. Clarissa came towards me, reaching to hold my hand but Kieran stepped in front of me. “Like I said, we have somewhere to be. But don't worry, I'm sure she'll like it." He reached for the bag but she held tightly to it, causing us to raise our brows. “I'm trying to make amends here, let me take care of her and your child like any mom would.” I could tell that Kieran was restraining himself from going off on her
Chapter 137Clarissa's POV Leaving the house without having Tyler worry about where I was going was easier this time. He was keeping himself busy with the Pack, to the point where I barely saw him except when it was time for either dinner or to sleep. It was like he was back to being the Alpha again, only that this time, I no longer worked side by side with him. Besides, if he knew where I was going to, he probably would develop a heart attack even though that was unheard of among our kind. Hastening my footstep, I made my way out of the pack and at the same time, several ways use to convince that good for nothing Omega that I wanted to make amends. My Lycan was seething, wanting to rip off her throat while she spoke to us. She was the reason the home I spent my entire life building fell apart. And I can't believe Kieran was stupid enough to get her pregnant. She must think that because Kieran was supporting her, she has a right to open her filthy mouth and speak to m
Chapter 136Kaia's POV The answer was very hard.. by the time she was done talking, with me still standing a few feets away, I came to the conclusion that she was definitely making things up. There was no way I could've healed someone at the age of six and even if I did, why didn't I heal my mom? “Because she was already dead." Lylah said. “I know it sounds made up, but I couldn't leave you in the care of your father." She started again, “if he knew about your ability, he would take advantage of it, putting your life at a risk.” "My mom would've believed you.” She shook her head, "she didn't want to listen to anything I had to say that involved you.” She said, but that didn't sound like my mom but she wasn't here to defend herself. “The thing with your Dad wasn't supposed to be anything, I was just going to get information about you from him…” I snorted, "you fell in love.” I said with so much disgust in my tone. A smile that didn't reach her eyes appeared
Chapter 135Kaia's POV Since the attack, I'd focused more on taking care of the children with the girls and also picking out the designs I wanted for the new home we were building. Kieran said he had it in mind to build a home when he found his mate and there was no better time to do that than now when we were expecting our first child. The girls have also been a great help, taking my mind off everything for a few hours. Katherine was still around but she wasn't staying in the Pack house. And Kieran made sure she was avoiding me as much as possible. Even Dylan wasn't left behind. Although they assured me it was nothing, I could tell something else was going but it was probably in my best interest to not know. “I think it's time Caleb and I take having our own pup seriously." Dani said, “you're glowing and I want that for myself too." She cooed. “Do you think it's a bad idea if Ryder and I start trying?" Allie asked and two pairs of eyes snapped to her. The relationshi
Chapter 134Kieran's POV Kaia was still finding it hard coming to terms with the fact that the woman she knew all her life, who she mourned after her death wasn't her real mother and I couldn't blame her…no one could. Even though she argued that that was the only mother she had, it was obvious from her eyes how much she wanted to know about her birth parents. And looking for information without knowing where to start from was harder than it looked. The witch Katherine spoke about was delayed and that was the only clue we had. The records about the prophecy was something the Elders kept and bringing them into it when we weren't certain about anything was like a ticking bomb waiting to explode. For some reason, they held their peace about Kaia's position but I didn't put it past them to blow things out of proportion. “But we need answers!" King reminded me. “We do, but we also need to make sure our mate can handle whatever comes with it." He nodded, just as the door
Chapter 133 Aiden's POV Dylan was fucking with me! He was pushing me to the wall. Sleeping in the dungeon for what he did, was the best punishment he could ask for, but that seemed to only fuel his motivation to disobey me after I clearly gave an order. “Do you want us to bring him back?" Derek, my Gamma asked, his eyes fixed on me as he waited for my instruction. I shook my head. Unlike the last time when he disappeared without a trace, his whereabouts now wasn't a secret. The thought that he might be carrying out the end of the deal crossed my mind, where he would give me all the information I needed. But that didn't seem like the Dylan I grew up with. His new found relationship with Kaia was amusing. Before now, he didn't hide how much he hated his mom moving on and marrying her dad. But now, he was acting like a saint. “Alpha," one of my warriors called through the mindlink, the urgency in his voice jerking me out of my thoughts and back to the present. “Wh
Chapter 132 Felix’s POV “They knew we were coming…they fucking knew we were coming!” I growled. I had been so certain Kieran wasn't in the Pack when we got there, but when he showed up halfway, it confirmed the fact that he knew something was up. Instead of catching them by surprise, it was the other way around but there was no way I was going to give up. We were already there and she was going to come back with me no matter what. “We lost a lot of men, Boss." My second in command, who was nursing a bruise of his own said. “No doubt they were expecting us. Do you think we have a mole among us?" He asked. A mole? My men knew better than to betray me. And if by mistake there was, they had better die in the fight because by the time I was done with them, they'd be praying for death. For a few seconds, the thought of Nessa going behind me crossed my mind but that girl hated them more than I did, so I pushed the thoughts away. Another thing that made this mission unsuccessful,
Chapter 131Kaia's POV Kieran shifted uncomfortably as she came closer and with each step that she took, I tried to make myself smaller into the chair but that did nothing to ease the dread I felt just looking at the woman who singularly made my life miserable. Lylah was also pacing around in my head. “Why would Kieran bring her here?" She asked me. The look on the guys face told me they knew about her being here. I felt Kieran reach for my hand but I pulled it away, betrayed that knowing fully well what she did to me, he still let her into the Pack. “It’s not what you think, Bella.” He said through our mindlink. I snorted, standing up. “You have an explanation for why this woman is here? Beautiful!” I exclaimed and without waiting for whatever his explanation was going to be, I stormed out of the room. "Bella–" But I was already gone, storming past Katherine, Dylan's mom as I went. Kieran's footsteps were behind me. “Come on Bella, listen to me.” He called, as h
Chapter 130 Kaia's POV “Let me get this straight," I began, my eyes darting to Dylan on the bed and back to the siblings, who just told me what has to be the most insane tale I've heard in all of my existence and as weird as it sounded, the proof was right in front of me. “I have the ability to form a shield if I'm in danger?" I asked, and the siblings nodded. “It was so cool…shocking and confusing at first, but you kinda get used to it.” Allie said, smiling widely. I turned to Kieran because for someone who was thrown against the wall just the previous day, she was sounding way too cheerful for my confused self, who was trying to make sense of everything they told me. Apparently, seeing Dylan get hurt somehow triggered my protective side which caused me to release the shield. And it wasn't just any shield, as the moment it came upon them, it began to heal them as well, which was one of reasons Dylan was alive. "Do you think the moon goddess is using me as an experime
