There we go…that’s better. I do miss you all when I can’t upload chapters.
Kaia POVIt had been 3 hours already and to say I was a mess was an understatement. My elbows were on my knees, my head in my hands as I repeatedly pulled at my loose hair…all horrible things going through my mind. I couldn’t find any inner peace…all I kept thinking is that something must have gone
Hector POV “They are both still unconscious, but you should be with them when they wake.” The surgeon nods to Kaia, before leaving the room. She watches the doctor leave, a relieved smile forming on her face and for a moment her carefree look takes my breath away. It only lasts for a second before
Hector POV I was pacing the hospital room once more, thinking back on the surge I felt through my bond with Kaia when at the council hearing. Did it mean what I thought it meant. “What is it?” Alora sighs out loud, pushing her untouched tray of food away from her. “Nothing that can’t wait.” I pul
Kaia POV I’ve never seen Father like this before…he’s always been my rock. Even when we were parted, I never really worried about his safety, I knew wherever he was he would be well…it was just finding out what had happened and whether he was ready for me to return to him. I remember him sending m
Kaia POV Can I stay and watch them build a happy life together, or does she leave… Do I once again take her away from Father, a Father that was deprived from seeing her grow up…she, stolen from Father’s love. I lived alone once, I can do it again. I can even start my own pack…Father has founded
Kaia POV “Go!” I gasp out as I drop my command, the Doctor’s body instantly relaxing from having been tense, as he fought against my command. If a pack member was crashing; they needed him more than Father did right now. “I’ll be right back…” He rushes past me, his concern at my Father’s state
Hector POV An alarm keeps blurring out in the corridor and it’s extremely annoying, while Alora and I put our pasts behind us and both start to think of our separate futures. I have no doubt that rejecting Alora was the right thing to do, for me, for her and for Kaia. For so long I was driven by
Kaia POV I had killed my Father. My own Father who was everything to me. What have I done… The severity of what I had just done weighs heavily on me as the strong winds circulate around me from the cliff tops edge. The waves were picking up speed as they crash against the usually tranquil bea
I may not have been the one that caused Josie’s attack or the attack on the pack but I had been silent. I had ghosted my entire family…who had been through hell. Who had clearly needed me. Shame washes over me. “Look had I of known I would have…” “Stayed? I don’t know why the fuck you left for
~ Jace ~ “I knew you shouldn’t have come.” Josie turns to Knox, removing his arm from around her just as I push my chest into his. “What the fuck is your problem?” I growl out, my eyes now inches from his. He might be pissed at me, just like the rest of my family, but what gives him the right
“Yes, well he is the future alpha of this pack. Each time he takes away responsibility from Dad, his muscles expand. Once he is full on alpha, he’ll be like a brick house.” “I don’t think he likes me.” She sighs out, moving to the mirror above the sink where she checks her slightly smudged mascara
~ Jace ~ As soon as the words leave my mouth my phone vibrates in my front trouser pocket. I reach for it, pulling it out…her name flashing up on my home screen. Cleo. The one person I had hurt more than my own family…and that is really saying something. I knew what I had done, walked out on
his hand to Callie to enter into the house. Callie follows him, her long brown hair bouncing with her movement, her skin sunkissed by the recent heatwave at the hotel resort. She had travelled down in a black sports bra, black leggings and a flannel shirt which coordinated well, only enhancing he
~ Jace ~ Taking that first step back into Dark Phantom territory wasn’t easy. I didn’t call ahead, incase I changed my mind last minute. This was my home, all of my childhood memories were here. Sure, we visited the Clear Waters pack many a times, but I always feared I would never get the same
I was starting to let my body shed. “I can’t keep it.” I whisper out. “Why not?” “It would bring shame upon the family, you and Mum will never forgive me.” “When have we ever put that on you. When have we ever made you feel that way?” It pains me to see the frown form upon his face. Truthfully
“Cleo, you really should give your parents more credit.” “Sophia please.” I plead with her, my voice desperate. “You’ll need the night to sleep on it. I have an appointment first thing, be here at 8am. If you still feel the same as you do right now, then I will put measures in place…” “Thank yo
~ Cleo ~ “You’ve done a test I take it?” Doctor Sophia asks me, as I sit in the chair on the other side of her desk. I was rarely in here nowadays, compared to my childhood. Sophia’s predecessor always on standby to soothe Mum’s worries from a simple cut or graze…the normality of childhood. If I
