“What were you doing?” I asked my sister. I was on my way to call on Rosa so that we would go and do whatever she said she wanted to do at home, after waiting for so long in the room for her.
I was almost approaching the door when I heard the voices. I was taken aback that Nora would want to tell Rosa about our parents when she knows how much I'm trying to make her stay with me. What is she trying to do? ruin my life? Send Rosa scurrying away in fear even before I win her heart over?
I had barged into the room on time to stop whatever she was about to say with my heartbreak when I saw the frightened look on Rosa’s face. It broke me knowing I would be the one to cause her such fear but I had to do what I could just to make sure she doesn't hear anything that has to do with my parents.
They were a nightmare I want to forget happened even though it killed me. Only that I didn't have the power to ext
Kimberly PoVI took the last remaining step to her and crushed her to me in a big hug. She squirmed for a while and then she stopped and held me crying into my shoulders. I felt shitty using her weakness, our weakness against her but I had to do anything. She hated me. That was evident, but I couldn't bear it. I loved when she smiled, laughed did anything, or even smacked me across the face but this was beyond me. Rejection.She extracts herself slowly her teary bleary eyes being into my clouded ones. This was a risk I knew was grave. Even if I tried to calm her so that I could reason with the I couldn't resist when she was like this.Her hand came up and cupped my face in hers. “Please don't ever do that again. You scared me so much”“I swear I would never try that ever again. I messed up and I do a lot when I'm angry but I shouldn't have raised my voice at you. I'm so sorry my love”She nodded and leaned
Kimberly POV“What the fuck are you doing here?” I careened the minute I opened the door.“Leo, who is that? Are you now talking to yourself? Weirdo!”“I'm coming sweetie” she was still in the bedroom.“I just thought I could check on her...Also, I've not seen my mate so I thought to check if she was here” I didn't believe him. I have the ability to know when someone was lying and right now I knew he is. But why? He has been acting very strange lately.First, we fought at the restaurant coz he thinks I'm taking hasty decisions to reunite with my mate. I was bloody angry as hell because he was the last person to expect to say that to me.He knew how long I'd waited and searched until now that the moon goddess decided to give her to me and then he is not on my side. I can't explain what is wrong with him and why he suddenly thinks she's a threat to us since she's human.
Kimberly POVTravelHe didn't say much to us as we entered, just shared a look with Nora still standing where he was when we entered. I took a fast excuse from him and ran inside to pick up something I had dropped, and splashed water on my face before I came out ready to leave with him.I hugged Nora who seemed emotional at us leaving her alone. That's what happens when you get used to seeing people around and then they would want to leave. Even though for a day, you would feel their absence.“Make sure you come back on time Brother, and make sure you are married by the time you get back,” Nora called after us. I smiled and waved off at her silly comment.The car doors slid up for me to enter and I jumped in before he graciously wedded in still bearing a vague expression.I pushed my hair behind my ears and graced him with a smile as the car pulled away.“Are you mad at me?”He look
Kimberly POV“You should stop sneaking up on me, you scared me!” I shrieked and picked up the phone.“I will call you back Nora,” I said into the phone and cut it.I regarded him to decipher if he heard any of the things I said but his expression was hazy and vague so I couldn't tell. “Did you just climb up?” I clearly asked.He furrowed his brow and removed my robe he was wearing “Why did you ask?”“Just wants to know. Is it bad for me to ask you questions?” I was bickering but I needed to know I'm not going to put Nora in trouble again.“If you're asking if I heard what you were discussing with Nora then I will tell you it's waste of time...I know everything she does even though I chose to ignore most of it”“Well?” I drawled shifting off the bed to give his bulky self room.“I know she's keeping her boyfrie
Kimberly POV“Dad!” I cried and scooted away in fear. “You startled me” I scratched my ear, my face morphing into a half-smile.He grinned and observed me closely “Something tells me you have been avoiding me. Should I be worried?”I made a surprise face “Avoiding you? Of course not, Dad. Why would I do that?”“I asked myself the same thing until I realized you have no reason to avoid me”“Yea” I went closer, swinging my arms abnormally. I was working hard to steady myself but it wasn't working. Either he had me sorted out or he was trying to unnerve me. Either way, I wasn't helping matters.“I had hoped we would see last night when I came in. But the young man said you were asleep”“Yea I was. Dad he's name is Leonard” I informed him perchance he forgot.He scoffed “ I couldn't care less if it was Toad”
Kimberly POVOuting to the wood“He doesn't bite, just go and talk with him man to man. I'm into you already go along. I have to speak to my daughter too” Mom shooed him with a wink. My eyes nearly expunged from my socket when she did that.While he walked out, I turned my attention to Mom “That was so gross”“He's my in-law so I don't know what you are talking about”“ So what do you want to talk about? I hope it's not to give me another lecture on__” I faltered, my mind going to the question she had asked me earlier on in the kitchen. Mom can't be so cruel to want to ask me about a man when the food I just ate hasn't digested.“So we have to go shopping next week for your wedding gown and other things,” she said with glee and jumped out of her chair to my side to crush me to herself. “I told you, baby, when the time is right you would attract just what you deserve”
Adrian POV“How can we just leave just like that? That wasn't part of the plan” my mate whined from the bed she was laying. She was absolutely correct, but this is unexpected and I have to get back to the pack on time since Leonard, my pack’s Alpha isn't around.Normally the Alpha and the park do not just leave the park like that without one person staying behind to oversee the activities of the pack or at least appoint someone, among the elders to do so. The gamma who Leonard had placed in charge was now on the battlefield leaving the entire pack vulnerable. This is the opportunity enemies seek to use and attack any pack.“I'm sorry love, but you know this is not my fault. I have to be in park first thing tomorrow morning to make sure that I handle this matters before the return of my Alpha”.She observed me through her dark hooded lashes for a long time without saying anything whilst I struggled with my tie in front o
Kimberly POVI looked at the mirror for the umpteenth time still not believing my eyes that I was getting married today. I don't know how to feel but I kind of felt bad that my best friend won't be here to see me get married. From what Leo had told me, this was for the pack and the right thing to do, so I wasn't complaining. Kinda.“Awnn, babe you look so gorgeous! Now I want to get married” Nora who had come in last night gushed as she looked at me from my side. She had been the one to do my makeup and my hair now it remained my dress before I would be a complete bride.“Thanks, babe. I'm feeling a little jittery about this. Do you think this is the best decision? I mean considering the rush and all that?” I gestured around with my hands, my mind tumbling in diverse directions.“It's the best thing you could ever have done for my brother Kim, I don't know for yourself because I'm not in you. But the vibrati
Epilogue The party was suave. And so was the initiation. After the full moon, all the wolves had transformed and then I watched in amazement as Leonard went to the little dune if send in front of his house and transformed after that, he howled into the moon followed by the other wolves who began to howl with him. After all, that, came my initiation. It was the terrific moment I have waited for all this while. The priestess had performed it after everyone had left and then I had been made to say dome oat with a book that looked like the Bible. After that, she called Leonard who came and she used a knife to cut his hand and told him to pour the blood on me. It was gross, but I had to endure it. He said some things that had to do with accepting me to be his Luna and to rule alongside with him until death do us apart. I did the same thing and then he had covered me with a robe, because I was naked, and carried me into the house straight to the room.
I woke up forcefully and looked about me. We were home. I knew it cuz I could feel it. I looked out and then in a flash, I heard them shout“Surprise!”I flinched away in fear and abruptly sat up to look at everyone in the room. There were so many people. Mom, Dad, my brother, Leonard, Sandy everyone. Even Adrian. I was losing my mind as I wondered what was happening.How is it possible that my enemy is among those shouting surprise and to worsen the matter, I saw a man that was an older version of Leonard standing at the far end with a smile on his face. Is that his father? How?I smiled on at them and looked about the room happy that I'm back. Why are they happy like that? Am I missing something?Leo came forth and took my hand. “ thank the goddess you are back. You have been sleeping for long that we feared that you are going to take longer”“Where is your Mom?” I looked in the crowd for her
The house has been cold everything seems to be happening so fast. I'm was exhausted. I have the training to go for today and I have to rest for a while before leaving for it especially since I would be seeing the relentless, Mark. He doesn't stop disturbing my life every time he sees me making me lose focus on the real reason for our meeting in the first place.Oftentimes, I wished I will stay away and do this training myself but I decide to go just to meet with the others and improve in my defense which I have been dawdling these days and it's because of him!.I rolled my eyes as my phone chimed signaling an incoming message from him saying how much he missed me. Side, we saw yesterday! why is he so pesky?!“Because he is our mate! I like him” My Wolf said garnering her a glare from me.“Don't deceive yourself or grow attached. There is no way I'm letting him come close to me after what he said” I said and replied to him to pi
The Enemy Kingdom, (Third person pov)They are yet to hear from the vampire to know how far the plan had come. It was beginning to dawn on to the Diamond pack Alpha who hasn't slept a wink since he hasn't gotten any information from Draco concerning the plan if it was successful or not.He paces from one end of his study, to the next with a glass of a brown substance, which he swirled about mindlessly praying to his goddess that the plan pulls through.In his mind, he knows things would go awry for him if eventually, things don't work out for him. The Alpha king would have him stripped of all his powers and he would go from an Alpha to the worst kind lower than even the omega___Groveler.This we're the group of wolves that lost their ranks due to one form of my behavior or the other and he wasn't ready to allow anyone to reduce him to that level. Not yet not ever...He hasn't been able to look his wife in the eye since the anticipation starte
Kimberly POVI opened my eyes slowly trying to adjust to the light and the voice I'm hearing beckoning to me. I know that voice. It soumded very familiar. Does that men I'm back home? I strained my ear still laying on the be and closing my eyes. I didn't want to open it so as not to see that monster. He had tried to force himself on me yesterday and but I didn't let him.“Hey, Kim” I heard that this time very close. I snapped my eyes open and looked around. I was still in the same place. How then?I sat up from the bed and tried to clear my thought “Nora?” I said feebly not trying to get my house up.“Kim!” she said louder than time. I slid off the bee to on the bed lamp hoping to see her in the darkness but nothing was there but me and the empty room .“Where are you Nora? I can't see you” I said in disappointment. I must be going mad.“I'm here in your head. I've been trying to get you
“You have to calm down Alpha. We will do everything to capture whoever is behind this” Adrian said to me but I was fast losing myself. I couldn't help myself. I felt kike I was going to die.I paced and took all the brown switches I could lay my hand on but none was helping to take my will. He was furious that I had let us down by allowing that monster to take away the only thing that kept me alive all these years. My mate.It has been one week now since she went missing and to date, no one could say exactly what happened. That sneaky bastard Draco had done his deeds very calmly that no one saw him do it. I had always handled the guards staying at the door that very day thrown into the dungeon fit letting her by pass them without stopping her or at last going after her.That was the best I could do because all I wanted to go when they told me they saw her going to the back of the house
KIMBERLY“You see was that not easy?” I asked him when we got of seeing his mother. He looked somewhat released now unlike when we had gone in to see her.I wonder why he thought it's hard to going to be hard to get across to her by the way.He draws me closer “I did that because of you. Now let's watch what she has planned out since she won't share.”“Yea, she seems to like to run her shit herself. Or she's trying to protect you. She is very nice” I moon as we walked to the stairs.“I will have to leave you to go for my meeting. I was supposed to go for it before you came forth, Adrian is handling it but I have to meet up and tell them we have a plan. I just hope she doesn't fail whatever she thinks she's up. I have to also have a backup plan in case it fail”He kissed me and entered through another dark hall leaving me all by myself. I stood in the hall reminiscing over what happened in the r
“Why did you just say?” I asked encroaching on her.She backed away as if growing cares for me. “You heard might. If you don't do what is right, Lei. I will leave with my Mom back to Chicago” she said the words sending my head on a roller spin.I growled and ball fist but I don't want to scare her so I controlled my self and tried to look calm for her “Baby, you can't say that”She raised her chin in a defense manner to look at “Why not? Why do you think I will not say?” she reiterated.I pinned my eyes to her brown ones intently trying to discern her but she looked like she was blocking away my mind from reading hers. I huffed in anger and again tried to control myself “ Babe, I'm working things out. I promise I will sort all this out in due time”She looked bout us noticing her Mom and others were strong at us, she picked up my hand and walked towards the stairs and I followed without an
Leonard POVThings are going out of hand more than I had anticipated. I paced in my study my mind going through all I've been through in the last few weeks.I can't lose Rosa. Nothing fears more than the thought of it. Last night I was very furious when her mother had made that suggestion about her wanting to take to Chicago. It unbuttoned a string inside me making me want nothing but to possess my wife from anyone taking her from me. Why did he choose now of all the times to surface? I fell so enraged with everything that wasn't working out and more enraged with the fact that solutions are looking far from my reach. I can't let what happened the first time to happen again.“You caused this. If you had mated with her a long time ago all this won't be happening I'm now.” Cupid who was also restless snarled at me.“How is it fault. How do you expect me to make with her in this turbulent time especially with a wild wolf like you”
