Really! Nessa! And here I was thinking she was a beautiful ray of sunshine.
Chapter 104 Dylan's POV If there was a conversation I was dreading, it was the one I was going to have in a few minutes when Allie walks through the door…it was inevitable. For me, the relationship started as a way to mess with Ryder but I couldn't say the same anymore. Although, a part of me knows that she was never mine in the first place, having seen the way that she looked at him and it was fine…he was one lucky son of a bitch. I could also see the efforts he was putting into talking to her which she ignores most of the time. The door swung open and Allie entered wearing her signature smile that was bright enough to throw any man off their feet. “Let me tell you,” She began, "if Kieran changes his mind on letting tag along to this Alphas’ event, I'm going to throw a tantrum.” I let out a chuckle, easing the tension in my chest. "You're not supposed to be there in the first place.” She rolled her eyes, "and you think I don't know that?" She asked, and I raised
Chapter 105 Kaia's POV (From when she found out she was pregnant) “You're pregnant.” Kieran said. My hand immediately went to my stomach, “Pregnant?" I asked, my eyes widening in shock. Kieran nodded, a proud smile etched on his face as he stared at me, I could tell that he was struggling to keep his excitement in. But I couldn't share the excitement as panic gripped me, my conversation with Lylah before I insisted on healing Nessa came flooding back. “Was this why she was warning me?" I thought, “she could've told me." Noticing the frown on my face, Kieran's smile slowly vanished as he moved closer to me. “I'm sorry…” he started and my head snapped to him. What was he sorry for? "I should've been more careful…" “What are you talking about?" I asked, lifting his chin to look at me. “It's okay if you're not ready to have a baby yet…I should've asked…” Without letting him complete his words, I kissed his lips and I felt his body stiffened. Pulling away, I care
Chapter 106 Kaia's POV It took a lot of convincing for Kieran to believe that I was capable of being alone and could take care of myself. He literally followed me to the bathroom just in case I needed help there. I was enjoying it though so I let him. But when Caleb mind-linked him to tell him something about the rogue that shot Nessa and Kieran replied that he should deal with it, I sent him away. As much as I wanted him to stay by my side, he had an obligation to fulfill. Besides, the doctor assured us that there was nothing to worry about in the first few weeks. I pulled a shirt over my head as I got ready to meet the girls. I was going to tell them about my pregnancy and I was eager to see their reaction. “How do you think is the best way to tell them?” I asked Lylah, but I was met with silence. I let out a deep breath, pulling out a skirt from the closet while trying not to think about the fact that Lylah now only replies to me if it was very important. I hated
Chapter 107 Kieran’s POV I walked into my office with a smile because at the moment, I doubt anything can make me unhappy. Kaia carrying our pup was the best news and more than anything I could ask for. “Alpha," Caleb called, but paused when he saw the look on my face. “I'm not sure I can tell if I really interrupted you or not." He said, considering the fact that I snapped at him earlier when he mindlinked me. Ryder, who was lying down on the couch snorted, “you should be happy he's in a good mood. My poor ass can't handle him if he's not.” I rolled my eyes, before going to my desk ready to get back to work. “What did you get?" I asked him. Ryder stood up and came towards us, pulling a chair for himself as Caleb spread out the papers in front of him. “According to the description Nessa gave, those men sound different from what we're looking at…” he started. "And a question I can't push out of my head, is if she's a target too.” Ryder added. He had a point, it
ChaptKaia's POV My pregnancy was the only thing the girls could talk about until we returned back to the child care where we met Nessa playing around with the children. She was finally getting a hang of it. But as I looked at her now, all I could think about was the conversation I had with Lylah. “Luna!" She called, running to meet me. "I'm glad you're okay. I was worried something was wrong." She said, wrapping her hands around me. “I'm okay." I assured her. She held my hand, telling me everything that happened while I was away. The girls went on with their normal work, but from time to time, they jumped in and out of the conversation. “Excuse me, Luna." Ryder's familiar voice interrupted, and we kept quiet, turning to look at him. "Don't tell me Kieran sent him to check on me.” I thought, a smile appearing on my face. He had mind-linked me every few minutes to make sure I was okay and now that isn't enough, he had to send someone. "That's so sweet!" Lylah coo
Chapter 1Kaia’s POV I raised my hand and knocked on the door, the sound echoing through the silence. The door creaked open and Aiden's piercing gaze locked unto mine. “Did anyone see you coming?" He asked, looking behind me to make sure we didn't have company. "No, Alpha.” My voice sounded tired, having cleaned the dishes of over a hundred pack members after dinner. I knew I was a mess but he didn't give me enough time to freshen up. “You’re late.” He growled, his voice low and tough, after he was completely sure we were alone. I swallowed hard. “I'm sorry," I whispered, moving back but he was fast. He reached out and grasped my wrist, his nails digging into them making me wince. He released me once he saw the look on my face. I knew better than to complain after what happened the previous day when I tried to come out all tough. “We have to be fast, Brianne is going to be up soon and I don't want her wondering where I am.” He said, already working on the belt of
Chapter 2 Kaia's POV I bite back a groan as my body hits the wall. My back throbbing in pain. Brianne was still throwing daggers at me from where she stood beside Aiden, trying to make sure he was okay. Resisting the urge to roll my eyes, I slowly got to my feet, assessing the damage caused by my sudden flight. My dress was torn and from the pain on my back, it wasn't hard to tell that a bruise was forming there. “You bitch! How dare you put your filthy hands on me!” Aiden snarled, his wolf was nowhere to be found. I'm done, my hands were trembling on their own. “I'm s-sorry. I don't know what came over me." I apologized, tears streaming down my face. "I knew you were up to no good when I saw you in that dress." Brianne sneered, "You never learn, do you?" She spat, her eyes bulging. I shook my head, nothing I said to her would prove that I wasn't just making up stories to get out of the trouble I knew was inevitable. I'm sure Aiden knew the truth and his words were
Chapter 3 Kieran's POV "Remind me again why I need to see a rogue?" I asked Caleb, my Beta, my voice sounding tired from being in a meeting all day combined with my Lycan’s restlessness. “Because you're the Alpha and we need you to decide what to do with her." "What's there to decide? She's a rogue. Did she talk?” I asked. He shook his head. “Not a word. Ryder suggested waiting for you. She was in a bad state when we brought her in.” I nodded and followed him towards the dungeon. A rogue entering our land wasn't a new thing. But over the last few years after I became Alpha, their attack became less frequent and I wanted to keep it like that. As a pack, we took pride in making sure that our members were safe at all times. “Let's get this over with." I thought. Dealing with rogues was definitely my least favorite part of the day. As I approached the cell, my Lycan grew even more restless. He began to jump and dance around my head in excitement. "Mate,

Chapter 103 Unknown POV -Nessa “It's the Luna, she's the healer." I told Felix, entering the cabin we usually met in and I watched as his jaw clenched. “Kieran's mate is a healer? The white wolf?" I mean I was surprised as well, considering how long I've tried to figure out what secret they were hiding. Using the poison on myself was a risk I took but with my stepmom being unable to shut her mouth, I didn't want to delay it anymore. Felix needed to get his plan moving…and for the first time, he decided to involve me. Besides, playing the sweet innocent girl was becoming exhausting. I probably should've come up with a better excuse than not feeling well…but how was I supposed to know that she was going to snoop around looking for my house. “Because she's not the bad person.” My subconscious mind told me. So…it wasn't like I had anything against Kaia, she's nice and all, maybe too trusting. But she was the easiest and fastest way to get to Kieran and then to his p
Chapter 102Kaia's POV The four of us agreed to go to the city and Kieran made sure Edward and Dylan went with us but not after giving them several warnings to keep us safe. I'm certain he was letting us go because he wanted to make up the incident with his parents and even it was needed, it was very much appreciated. Ryder sulked that he wanted to be the one to go instead of Dylan but he changed his mind when Kieran glared and the memory of the last time we went together filled my head. And he definitely wasn't going because he wanted to keep us safe or anything, Allie still hasn't given him the chance to talk. It was no surprise when a few hours into the shopping, I was tired. But Nessa was having fun so it was worth it. The gloomy expression was long gone and a permanent smile was in its stead. “Which girl gets tired of shopping? Don't you guys survive on that?" Dylan asked, a bit of teasing in his voice. I rolled my eyes, “tell that to my legs that feels like the
Chapter 101 Kaia's POV The walk to wherever Alpha Tyler was taking me to didn't take long and I recognized the pathway from the last time I ran after Kieran and speaking of him, I should probably tell him what I was doing. But a part of me was actually relaxed…it might be wrong, but I knew that nothing they said would get me to leave Kieran again. Not this time. “I really love you…” Lylah started, and I could sense a but coming. "but you can be dumb sometimes.” My jaw dropped, I didn't even have time to respond to her insult before she continued. "You're willingly walking into the den of the enemies, that's not exactly called taking caution. How do you think our mate is going to feel when he finds out you're here without your bodyguard?” I couldn't contain my shock seeing how she'd never spoken to me in this manner before. And I knew better than to ignore it. “I'm sorry, Lylah." I apologized, promising to tell him. And she just nodded but didn't say anythi
Chapter 100Kaia's POV It was still hard to believe that Maria would do something like that and when Kieran questioned her after the said boyfriend…Jake died from the poison, she broke down and admitted that he had been looking for the potion made from the iron bloom flower. She claimed that he told her that it was the last time he was going to get involved with the group and she believed him, hence the reason she was trying to cover up after him. Knowing that it wasn't that, helped keep my mind at ease even though I still had Edward following me around sometimes. He was different from the first one, and he isn't as stiff either. “Good thing Alpha got rid of her…I can't believe she would implicate Ashley for something she didn't do.” Dani said. Allie nodded, "I know right! What happened to girls supporting each other?” “She was probably absent when that was taught.” I joked and the three of us laughed. Nessa wasn't around today, she mentioned something
