94. The Forest

last update Last Updated: 2021-10-25 00:35:10

KIARA

We had been walking for a while, and with each step, the ominous feeling had only grown. The forest was approaching and the darkness that I felt from it made me sick to my stomach.

"You ok?" Alejandro asked.

"There’s darkness here Al… A lot of it…"

We shouldn’t have come here, not alone… Something was at work here and it wasn’t good.

"I can sense that much. Is it magic?"

"Magic that has already embedded deep in this forest…I can’t see any visible remaining magic from here anyway." I said as he took my hand, intertwining his fingers with mine as we continued. The closer we got to the forest, the worse the feeling got. Things were not going to go well; I knew deep down that whatever we found would be something neither of us was prepared for. I just wish I knew more.

"Alejandro…"

"Kiara… Do you want to go back? I can get you to safety first." He said, looking at me with a deep frown on his face and concern in his eye

    ALEJANDRO We moved silently. The darkness within the cavern surrounded every corner, and more than that, I could feel the evil that lingered. I kept a tight hold on her hand, my eyes, ears and nose keeping an sense out for the smallest sound. There were several tunnels branching off and even some doors. The further down we went, the more the place seemed to get deeper. It was a fucking maze in here. The only problem was if Kiara had to escape… I tried not to think of that, but this place was fucking confusing. "The magic is getting stronger." She whispered to me. I could sense the chilling darkness that was growing with every step, and it sure as fuck wasn’t due to the cold air that surrounded us. The sounds of growls and shrieks soon caught my ears, I slowed down as the noise only got louder. Slowing down further when the smell of Manangal’s and Wendigo’s filled my nose, we were getting closer to them… We turned a corner and I stopped as I looked at the line

    ALEJANDRO I didn’t even register Kiara’s gasp as I placed my arm around her waist, holding her close. I stepped back, placing distance between the Rogue King and I as I stared at the woman before me. It was her… yet it wasn’t… I didn’t know what to think. That day, coming to and seeing those body pieces spread across the floor. Her hand… Her ring… The guilt that I had killed her… I didn’t want to believe it… The woman I remembered as my mother was nothing like the woman before me. She was… kind… sweet… loving… Rafael reminded me of her… a lot. Not only did I feel like my whole fucking life was a lie… But it meant that even before her ‘death’… She couldn’t have love me… or she wouldn’t have made me go through that shit… Through the pain and shock, I was feeling the stark truth that she had faked her death, and it hit me like a fucking hard slap across the face. She had let me live with the guilt that I had murdered her. Because of that, I was afraid to be arou

    KIARA "You’re fucking crazy." Alejandro said icily. She frowned slightly, her eyes glimmering. I let my aura out, allowing it to swirl around our feet, keeping her dark magic at bay. I wasn’t sure if I could fight her off, but… I could try. I was working purely on instinct here. One thing was clear: She was derailing Alejandro’s mind, trying to get into it and manipulate him. Not only by words, but magic was at work here too. He was strong but I had to still be careful. "So, you won’t help me?" She asked, her face turning angrier. "No. I'm not your fucking son, nor your fucking puppet. You’ve been accountable for so many fucking lives lost. Do you think I’d ever agree? Other countries know about me, they are setting up similar councils. We don’t need to do anything more. When it comes to witches, do whatever the fuck you want. But do not for one fucking second think I’d ever forgive you for all the crap you put me through! I almost gave my mate up bec

    KIARA Fear consumed me like never before. My heart was pounding in my chest as I ran towards him. Marcel rushed past me; a deafening growl echoed in the room as he lunged at Endora. I heard the sickening sound of a wolf being impaled. He howled before I heard a sickening crunch and then the smell of blood growing stronger in the air as his body hit the far wall. "Not so fast!" Endora shouted. A dark blast shot towards me, but it didn’t get past the blazing purple fire surrounding me. I felt her evil magic closing in on me, forcing me to stop in my tracks. I let my power blaze up once again, sending another blast towards her without even looking. The sound of some bones breaking and her screams filled the air. "Don’t fucking touch me!" I shrieked. I had made her mad, but I didn’t care, I was angrier. She sent another strong wave at me which knocked me back, but I didn’t hit the ground, a pair of strong arms catching me. Sparks shot up m

    ALEJANDRO I was useless. She was so strong that even my speed wasn’t enough. I hated that I brought Kiara here and hadn't even been able to protect her. I had never felt so fucking powerless… Because of me… she could have been fucking killed. Endora’s words rang in my head. The fucking cheek of her to think that I’d be ok with any of the shit she was fucking spewing. I guess I came across as more heartless than I actually was. Yeah, I was a fucking monster, but I wasn’t as fucking far gone as she had thought… I frowned. For her to believe that, it meant she had been watching me for a long time... I didn’t have time to fucking wallow in self fucking pity. Marcel joined the fight, and I still had no fucking clue what to make of that. They were never-ending; Marcel had let off a call to his wolves and I sensed them approach. I had to fucking admit, for just a bunch of rogues, he sure knew how to lead them. Guess he was a Rossi after all… I didn’t know ho

    KIARA Despite his threat to his brother, his words send a rush of emotions through me. My heart was pounding as he pulled me into his arms possessively. I simply closed my eyes and wrapped my arms around his waist. "I only wanted her for her power, as Mom wanted… It’s nothing personal. Now that I know she was lying… I can guarantee I don’t want your mate… She seems to be young enough to be my daughter." Marcel shot back. Alejandro growled and I pulled away, trying to calm him down. I was glad that a few rogues had brought in some extra lanterns so I could see a lot better. "It’s fine… Come on, we need to think of a plan of action." I said, kissing Alejandro’s chest as he glared at his brother. "You should rest, my wolves will keep watch." Marcel said quietly. "Like I would trust you that much." Alejandro shot back. "We should head back first…" He frowned deeply, looking at me, and I knew he was worried about me. "I thin

    ALEJANDRO The moment those words left her lips, I couldn't control myself. I pushed her back onto the bed and kissed her hard. Fuck, I needed this. She moaned softly, as I climbed between her legs. No, I wasn’t going to break the promise I made to myself, but that didn’t mean I couldn't have a little piece of heaven… The feel of her soft lips fighting for dominance against mine, her sweet taste and her intoxicating scent were all fucking driving me nuts. I ran my hands down the curve of her breasts and waist, massaging her hips. She moaned against my lips and I took the chance to plunge my tongue into her mouth, I could smell her arousal as she locked her legs around me. I was already fucking hard for her. "Nh…" She moaned, sucking on my tongue, before I broke away and began kissing her down her jaw. My hand squeezed her ass. Fuck, she was perfect in every fucking way. I kissed her neck, making my way to her breasts. I pushed up her top and bra, takin

    KIARA The next day I awoke, feeling a little cold despite Alejandro’s arms around me. After we left the caverns we went to get a quick wash out by the lake, something Alejandro only allowed me to do after the area was definitely clear of all life. We then had breakfast before I started on the Wendigos. Many had been killed last night, but in total there were about thirty-two that I would be able to heal. The process didn’t take much out of me to start with, but after thirteen, I needed a break. Alejandro didn’t leave me for even a second. He had contacted his men, who had been waiting at the outskirts of the forest to protect me, via mind link, and had told them about the turn of events. "Come on, sweetheart, let's get some food in you." "I’ve eaten, I just need some rest." I said, rubbing my head. From the ones I had healed, not all of them were mentally stable, and I knew they’d need therapy or some form of help. What broke my heart

    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

  • Her Cold-Hearted Alpha   125. Two Choices

    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
