Kiara
Rayhan didn’t look phased, as we both turned to see Dad standing on the top step. His cold glare was fixed on Rayhan.
I really was getting annoyed with him, especially since he himself was such a player back in the day. I gave him a warning glare.
"Hey, Uncle El." Rayhan said, a hint of a smile teasing his lips.
Dad simply gave him a calculating glare before looking at me.
'Dad, chill out, seriously.’ I said through the link.
‘I wasn’t going to say anything.’ He growled back. ‘But he better get the fuck out of my way or I’ll be disfiguring that pretty boy face of his.’
‘Ouch, don’t you think of him as a nephew?’ I replied, finding it a little amusing.
‘Not right now.’ He replied, walking down the steps.
Rayhan flashed him a dazzling smirk before he waved and winked at me, walking off.
"Seriously, Dad you’re suffocating." I said, as we both fell in step.
"You were upset that night." He said,
Thank you for reading! Can't wait to write and post the next few chapters XD the Blood Moon has arrived! Thank you for your constant love and support!
ALEJANDRO "Alejandro! Alejandro!" I opened my eyes to find Darien leaning over me. Where was I? I looked around, aware of the pain in my body and how tired I fucking felt. Then it all came back. Kiara. The pain was still there but with the exhaustion, I felt it was duller. I looked away, shoving Darien far from me. "Get the fuck out of my way." I said hoarsely. It seems like my throat hasn't healed yet. "Al… What are you doing man? Substance abuse? We need you at your strongest… What if an attack happened when you were out? We’d be fucked thanks to your reckless behaviour!" Darien growled. I knew he was fucking scared that I almost killed myself, but I wouldn’t die that fast… I wasn’t that stupid… I also knew I didn’t think of anything but how I was feeling… Kiara. How did she fuck up my head so easily? I sat up and turned away from Darien. I didn’t want him here. "Leave." I said quietly. "No. Wha
KIARA Two hours later, Raven and Raihana stepped back to admire their work. "Ok…. I think she looks like a damn bombshell." Raven said with satisfaction. "That lip colour is definitely hers; it just adds to it, doesn't it?" Raihana added. "Yes, girl! This babe’s going to have every unmated wolf drooling…" "Not to mention most women wear long gowns to the ball…" Raihana said smirking. "Damn, I wish we had like a camera to see what's happening out there." Raven said. I raised an eyebrow. "I am here, listening to you two as if I'm not. Can I see?" I asked, feeling a bit nervous about what they’d done to me. "Sure!" Raihana said. She turned me slowly towards the mirror and I stared at myself in shock. I looked… stunning! Regal even... Raven had styled my hair into a very high, stylish up-do, leaving a few long, loosely curled strands to frame my face. As for my face, Raihana had done a
ALEJANDRO I stood on the balcony at the front centre of the mansion two floors up, as I looked at the illuminated gardens, satisfied. "Kind of dazzling tonight, isn't it? It doesn't really make sense when we’re wolves." Jasmin said from next to me. I didn’t reply, I knew what she was insinuating and she wasn’t wrong. I had asked for it to be light enough for Kiara. "A change is good." I said coldly. She nodded, smart enough to keep her fucking mouth shut. I turned away, trying to calm the emotions that swirled within me. I wanted to see her… but at the same time, I was scared. What would I do when my eyes fell upon her? I know I was sure she was my mate… But I still wanted confirmation… Even if I would never pursue her. "You're restless." Jasmin murmured. "I’m not." I said coldly. "You are welcome to join the fucking ball." "I’d rather spend it with you." She said, stepping closer to me. I turned
KIARA I walked through the halls, my heart pounding with each step. I gasped as a deep, intoxicating scent hit my nose; I'd never smelled anything so addictive, so seductive that it made me dizzy. My heart thumped as I inhaled it. It smelt so much like Alejandro’s… Just a billion times more tempting if that were even possible. I stopped outside a door and opened it. My mate was here and deep down I felt I knew exactly who it was… I looked into the room, but the sight that reached my eyes was one that would always remain. The painful sight of my mate making out with another woman. For a moment, it felt as if time had stopped, his gaze snapped towards me and my heart suddenly exploded with a surge of emotions. Alejandro was my mate. My king. My other half. Despite the pain I felt, I looked into his eyes, giving him the chance to come to me. We would work on this; we could make it ok. Please. My heart was crumbling and I co
RAVEN My heart was racing as Raihana squeezed my hand, both of us were staring at the television. The eerie music only adding to our tense state. The front door opened and Raihana screamed, making me flinch before the light was flipped on as someone entered the living room. My heart skipped a beat when I saw my favourite boys, both of their blue eyes were on me. I almost shrieked as I jumped over the sofa, unable to decide which one to hug first. I pulled them both into a hug. Well, I was practically hanging from their necks, thanks to my tiny size. They both wrapped their arms around me and Damon chuckled. "Someone missed us." "More enthusiastically than Kia." Liam said, kissing the top of my head. I smiled as I let go of them. "Ok boys, you can put me down." I said, still suspended in the air thanks to their hold on me. I was about to say more but my smile vanished when I saw Uncle El carrying Kiara. "What happ
KIARA A knock on the door made me stir and I sat up, last night rushing back to me as I felt the sharp tugging pain clench around my heart. Raven wasn’t here, I frowned and looked around before I saw the note on the bedside table. ‘Gone shopping with the boys, I will find the perfect dress for you! See you soon, XOXO’ I put the paper down and shuffled up against the headboard to take a deep breath. "Come in!" I called. The door opened and Dad entered holding a plate of food and a bottle of fruity water. "Did you sleep well?" He asked, closing the door behind himself. I nodded, my heart thudding, not knowing what was coming. He placed the plate in my lap and kissed my forehead before he went and pulled the curtains open, letting the bright sunshine through the window. I flinched at the brightness, before becoming accustomed to it. Dad walked over to the bed and sat on the edge, facing me. "Eat." He ordered. I loo
ALEJANDRO I lit another cigarette as I stood there trying to regain control of my emotions. In this dark, fucking cellar, looking at the Wendigo that I had caught with Elijah and Rayhan. Ever since last night when I had pulled her into my arms… The way it felt… I had never experienced anything like it. The way she made me feel… had been enhanced a thousand times. It had hurt, knowing I had put her in that state, but I had to remind myself of the reason behind it. I didn’t want to hand her to her father, but I had to, before those fuckers got near her… "Anything Callum?" I asked, returning to the present. "It’s magic. I just… I don’t know. There’s nothing I can make of it; I just know that there’s magic involved in creating this. It is faint, so not much was used… which means either they are able to breed these things without magic now or the magic isn't really necessary for it anymore." He said gravely. "So even capturing a fuck
KIARA I took a deep breath as I entered the same venue as last night. This time I felt a thousand times different. There was no excitement, but a deep pain in my chest. My mate was going to mark someone else tonight. That had been another slap in the face, but on the way here, Mom had mentioned how the council seemed to want the marking done today too. Dad and I both hadn't told her about my mate. First of all, I didn’t get the chance as she and Dad had practically jumped each other the moment Mom walked on to pack grounds, and then Raihana had helped me get ready. Sadly, Raven had gone back home per her dad's orders. Although she had wanted to stay, her dad had heard of the attack and was going crazy, so she had to listen. Her dad reminded her that she was still seventeen and under his command. I couldn't blame him, and I kind of agreed, being around me she’d just be in more danger. I could see many had their eyes on me, and as much as I’d love
THREE DAYS AFTER CHRISTMAS… ALEJANDRO I looked at the little boy who I was meant to be looking after for the entire fucking day. With Kiara pregnant again, I knew she needed some time away, so she, Serena, Kevin and some other she-wolf had gone out for the afternoon and evening. At first, I thought this shit was going to be easy… But now, three hours in, I was regretting offering. How the fuck was I supposed to focus on paperwork when this fucker just demanded attention twenty-four fucking seven? The snow had gone, but the weather was still foggy and cold. I glanced up at the sky through the open French doors of my office, the dark cloudy sky only promising more gloomy weather. Dante was outside playing tag with Darien. "Al!" Darien called. "What?" "Dante’s got a request." "I want Mgonalds!" Dante chipped in. "Please, Daddy." How the fuck do you say no when he says please? "Didn’t you just have food? Dar

TWO YEARS AND EIGHT MONTHS LATER… KIARA "Can someone put the tinsel on the stair rail?!" Raihana shouted. I looked over at her, the eighteen-year-old was not impressed with getting the décor done. Maria had decided we would go away for Christmas, and since it was the holidays, Rafael had decided against bringing any of the Omegas to work. It was a time to spend with family, he had put it, and I agreed. So here we were, doing it all ourselves. Not that I minded, I loved all of it. As werewolves, our main goddess was Selene, but outside of that, we still liked to participate in certain celebrations of other gods and religions. Christmas was not one to miss. After all, who wouldn’t mind some festive feelings. "I will, Raihana, relax." I told the younger woman as I reached up to the ceiling from my ladder to finish setting the fairy lights. She had come of age and the next mating ball, there was a chance she may find her mate. Or a
ALEJANDRO Kiara had left, and although my mind was on her, I tried to focus on the game. I was winning… I think so anyway. "And I win." Marcel said, showing his hand. Raf groaned tossing his cards down, and I smirked, showing my hand. "You mean I win." I said, arrogantly. "Fine. You’re damn good." Marcel replied grudgingly. "You both are, you should really have some sympathy on your elder brother." Raf complained, picking up his glass. I have no fucking idea why he was so weird. "You’re a fucking weirdo." I remarked. "You still love me." He grinned. "Shouldn’t you be minding Dante?" I asked, ignoring his comment and lighting a cigarette. Avoiding smoking around Dante was probably the next hardest thing to do, after not getting enough time with Kiara. Although I was sure the fucker could heal, I mean, Kiara could heal him every other month... The smoke wouldn’t affect him... But damn, I was taking
KIARA "Oh, he is adorable." Maria said as she carried Dante, planting a kiss on his forehead. I smiled. "Thank you." Although they had all seen him before and we had been here for the last five hours, everyone was still gushing over him. The men had gone out for a few hours and had returned in time for dinner. We were all in the luxurious lounge of the Rossi mansion. Only when I came here did I realise how wealthy the Rossi’s were; even Alejandro's luxury mansion did not exude the same level of elegance. Leo was sitting on one of the large sofas enjoying himself playing on Rayhan’s Xbox, and Raihana had told him he could take it back home too, stating that Rayhan no longer needed it. Speaking of Rayhan, he had video-called earlier and I had managed to say hi to Liam too. Alejandro hadn’t really talked to Rayhan. Even when Rayhan had found out he was awake, he had kind of ignored him, but today they’d had a conversation and I wa
ALEJANDRO I looked up as the door was flung open. "…is inside." Darien was saying. Scarlett gasped as she stared at us, whilst Darien flipped the light on. Did they really not know how the fuck to knock? Elijah looked pale as fuck looking between us both. "You are awake!" Scarlett exclaimed, rushing over as she glanced at me before turning back to Kiara. "You had the baby! Oh, hun…" Was she always so fucking loud? She looked chubbier than before, I frowned as I looked at Kiara as she was squeezed by her mother. Why hadn’t Kiara gained weight? My stomach sank as I looked past how beautiful she was. She looked tired. Her face was gaunter… and she sure as fuck had lost more weight… Fuck. Because of me... "Ow ow ow…" Kiara mumbled. I frowned seeing her mother squashing her and tugged her out of Scarlett’s arms forcefully, wrapping my arms around her possessively. "The doctor just told us you had a C-section! How are
KIARA No matter how many people congratulated me solemnly on the birth of our son, it was still a heart-breaking time for everyone. My only contentment was that my baby had been born healthy. Serena had told Mom and Dad that I had the baby and Mom was determined to come, although she only had Azura the day before. I had told her not to, but she refused. We still had not told them about Alejandro. Just the thought caused another wave of pain to envelope me. I wanted to die, to break down, to let everything out, but I couldn’t because I had my little angel, the only physical remnant of Alejandro and my love. I never understood what it meant when they said a mother's love is unconditional, but now I understand it means that no matter how much pain we were in, we'd keep going for our children. For our son, I would keep going. I looked down at him as I fed him. He was a hungry little thing. His suckling was strong, his little hand holding on to my breast as he dra
ALEJANDRO Nothing. I couldn’t feel anything or hear anything. Not even my heartbeat. Nor could I sense if it was hot or cold. There was darkness around me, yet at the same time, I couldn’t see it. It was just… emptiness. The pain that had consumed me was gone. I had been stuck in this state for so long that I had no idea how much time had passed. Was I dead? I had felt the agonising pain and then my life slipping from my grasp. The last thing I remembered was Kiara’s scream of anguish. I had failed her. I left her when she needed me the most. I once thought I’d destroy the world for her, but then I realised I needed to create somewhere safe for her. For our pup. At times, when I felt the darkness consume me, something would tug me back, leaving me suspended in this emptiness. But now… I was getting pulled into the depths of the darkness that I was always teetering at the edge of. A sudden dazzling light made me close my eyes, raising m
KIARA The following day, things didn’t turn out as expected. Liam told Dad he wanted to leave for his Alpha training immediately. I knew Mom and Dad knew something had happened, but they didn’t know what. Raven came to see baby Azura but like always she was all smiles and energy. She was in pain, I could sense her emotions that she was trying so hard to hide but she still acted so cheery, waving a very cute yet ugly octopus teddy she had brought for Azura. I too couldn’t stay any longer either, although I wanted to be here for Raven, I felt unsettled and the urge to go to Alejandro was at breaking point. So the plan was made, Liam will drop me off and then head on to meet up with Rayhan who was leaving for his training soon too. Liam would stay at The Black Storm Pack for a week or so before both continued to their first location for their training together. I was dressed in Alejandro’s shirt and leggings, my hair up in a ponytail and a pair of sneake
