CHAPTER FIFTY EIGHT: DON’T HIDE AGAIN
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Kayla’s POV
Zane leaned towards me and bit his lip in concentration, making my gaze lock onto his lips, which looked a little swollen from our kiss. Already I was thinking of pulling him back to me and kissing him again. Who knew kissing could be this addictive? I had always thought that kissing would be awkward and sloppy. How wrong I was!
When Zane gently touched my face, sending tingles spread over my entire face, I was snapped out of my not so innocent thoughts. As he wiped off the tears from my face, I started unblinkingly into his eyes, which were filled with so much tenderness that I felt like crying again. What was wrong with me? Why was I feeling like crying at the simplest of things? I had bottled up my emotions for so long and now that they were freed from their cage, was I going to be a teary, snotty mess all the time? The thought was enough to sober me up as I cringed at imagining me crying at the drop of a hat. N

Kayla’s POV“So, do you think you are ready to face your Uncle Xavier yet or do you need more time?”I looked at Zane, whose eyes were twinkling with mirth as he saw my nervousness. I narrowed my eyes at him in response. Didn’t he just claim to love me? Then how would he enjoy seeing me in trouble?“I already told you, he didn’t see you kiss me. And even if he did, he will only be happy for you. Don’t you think he would like to see you enjoy a good life with your mate?”Well, I guess he was right about that. Even though Uncle Xavier himself was a serious man with no nonsense attitude, he has always said it was different. He would always complain that it was his actual nature, whereas mine wasn’t because he remembered me as a cheerful girl until my family’s death. I had always disregarded his concerns and claimed that my life experiences had shaped me to become

Kayla’s POV“So, what are you going to tell the council now?” I asked, after making sure that the soundproof partition between the driver’s seat and the passenger seat was pulled up.Zane looked at me with a calm expression and I wondered how he could be calm about something like this.“What is there to tell?”My jaw fell open in disbelief, and I stared at him with wide eyes. What is there to tell? The Council ordered him to hunt me and he was asking, ‘what is there to tell’?Seeing my shocked gaze, Zane rolled his eyes.“It is not as if they are going to find anything about you when they haven’t been able to do that all these years. Especially considering you wouldn’t be out hunting anymore now that you had found the rogue you were searching for. I don’t think they would ever find the bodies of the rogues in the Dark Ench
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER SIXTY ONE: MAKING PLANS
Zane’s POVI smirked at Kayla, as I thought of the impending hunt for the dark mage Gregory. I was supposed to hunt for the Feral Assassin, but now; I was hunting along with her. Who would have thought, right?Kayla smiled back and her blue-grey eyes glowed for a moment with a predatory glint. I knew it was the Feral wolf in her that was getting excited at the prospect of hunting the enemy, but it didn’t make me nervous like I ought to be if it had been anyone else but Kayla. Instead, seeing her like that thrilled me and made me even more excited at the thought of hunting along with her. Even imagining it got my heart racing, and I wondered when we could set off to the Dark Enchanted Forest.Then I saw her eyes move to the door through which Ethan had gone moments ago, and the excitement dimmed from her eyes to be replaced by worry and guilt. I sighed, knowing how she was worried about him and felt a weird mix of
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER SIXTY TWO: GOODBYE FOR NOW
Kayla’s POVI watched the predatory expression on Zane’s face and a shudder passed through my frame at the fierceness emanating from him. I, the Feral Assassin who had killed wild rogues for years, found him intimidating despite knowing that he wouldn’t ever hurt me. I couldn’t help but pity those who were going to be in his path when he was in his war mood because Alpha Zane Black was a force to be reckoned with and once he hone in on you as his target, you better pray for a fast death.I hadn’t seen him in action other than when he faced the rogues in the forest, and I knew that he was holding himself back from being violent in front of his fragile mate, aka me. But from the violence that was radiating off his frame now, I knew that he meant business and he will bring death in his path when he finally gets into action. I could only hope that he would leave that mage, Gregory, to me. He was mine
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER SIXTY THREE: GO AHEAD SIGNAL
Zane’s POVI raised my brows at my dufus of a best friend as he stared at me with wide eyes. He bit his lip and turned his head to left and then with a frown, turned his head to the right. This was going on from the moment I walked into the pack house a few minutes ago, and his silent perusal was getting to me by now.“What?” I asked exasperatedly.“Something is different with you.”I rolled my eyes as he walked closer to me and leaned in to scrutinize my face.“I know I am gorgeous, but do you have to look at my face this closely to enjoy my beauty?”“Eww man! You know I wasn’t looking at your dumb face! And you know I bat for the other team; my mate will attest to that!”“Uh huh. Then why were you looking at me like that for the past ten minutes or so?”Ethan narrowed his eyes and looked at me again.“As I
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR: I MISS YOU, MR. ALPHA
Kayla’s POVFrom the moment Zane had left my pack, a strange feeling assaulted me. In fact, it started even before he had left my sight. It felt as if there was a heavyweight in my chest and it wouldn’t go however much I tried to stay positive. I didn’t know exactly what was happening or how to stop feeling like this when I had no reason to feel crappy. I should be happy, right? After all, everything was going just the way I wanted it to...My mate knows my secret and still wants to be a part of my life. Not only that, he has promised to help me in tracking the man I wanted to find. Then why was I feeling as if someone had stuck their fist inside my chest and was crushing my heart with each passing moment? Why?The only reason I can think of is because of Zane going back to his pack, and I couldn’t understand why it would leave me feeling this crushing sense of disappointment. He didn&rsquo
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER SIXTY FIVE: THE HUMBLE ABODE
Zane’s POVI looked at the humble abode in front of me and wondered what fresh surprise was waiting for me inside this time. I had been to this same house at least six times before today and out of those six times, never did the interiors look the same twice. It looked like a simple one story building, but inside it, it could be anything from a hut to a castle. The first time I had come here was five years ago and that time, it looked like a normal house and I didn’t know any better. However, I had visited it a week later to collect the specialized charm I had ordered last time. Iwas shocked when instead of the cozy home from the past week; I found a single large room that looked as if it was straight out of a sixteenth century manor. I had gone out to make sure I had the right home, even if I knew that I couldn’t have entered a wrong house with my tracking skills.Glenda had merely smiled before inform
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER SIXTY SIX: THE MYSTERIOUS BAG
Kayla’s POVI would love to say that the past week flew by even before I could blink, but if I say that, then I would be lying. Because it passed by with such agonizing slowness that it felt as if each minute felt like eons. Maybe it was because of how eager I was for time to pass that it ended up feeling slow instead. But slow or not, the week passed and now; I was pacing back and forth in my office, waiting for a certain someone to arrive.Once I had called him the day after he left, it was as if I had flipped a switch on in Zane. As if me calling him was the explicit permission he required to call me back, he made it a habit of calling me from the next day. At first it was once a day but after two days, he began calling randomly throughout the day saying that something or the other reminded him of me and he wanted to hear my voice. One time it was ‘I saw a gray cloud that reminded me of your stormy eyes an

Three weeks later…Kayla’s POVAfter I killed Stephen, we searched the mansion and found the papers of his research. We destroyed everything to make sure that no one would ever get the idea to create a race of wolves with magic ever again. Once that was done, we covered our tracks and ensured we left nothing that led to us. Done with our work, we left the place since the spell that blocked us from escaping had already gone down by then.The next day, I announced our relationship to my pack since I had no more reservations about it. The man had literally faced death for me several times, and I loved him as much as I could ever do anyone. There was nothing that stopped me from accepting our relationship wholeheartedly. The pack received the news with far more enthusiasm than I had expected. Even Ethan appeared to be genuinely happy at the way I accepted Zane, and I decided that it was time to let g
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY SEVEN: LET’S GO HOME
Kayla’s POV I stalked towards Stephen, and he stood there looking at me with wide eyes. He was no longer sporting the smug expression from before, and he didn’t look interested in my wolf anymore either. “Kayla darling…” he called out in a coaxing tone that one would use to soothe an aggressive dog. I let out a loud growl at him and he flinched and took a few steps back. “I am your uncle, remember? I am the only one left in the world for you. You don’t want to harm me, right? You don’t want to be alone in this world, right?” The red in my vision darkened at his stupid words, and I snarled in response. ‘And whose fault is it that I have no one else left? Weren’t you the one who killed my entire family, you bastard!’ I mind linked him and his eyes widened in response. That’s right. He never left the pack officially, and hence he was still a member of my pack. And I am still his Alpha…
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY FIVE: TIME FOR JUSTICE
Kayla’s POVI looked horrified as the men laughed and approached Zane. I tried to hit my hand against the golden cage I was imprisoned in. But just like the last time, I was thrown off by the electric sparks from it. My hand sizzled for a moment before the burn healed. Well, it means the burns would heal at least. If I could just tolerate the pain, maybe I could break the cage?With renewed vigor, I took a few steps backwards, stopping right before my back hit the edge of the magical cage. Then I gritted my teeth, ready to endure the pain, and leaped towards the cage and kicked it. But all my efforts were for nothing. Even though I forced myself to endure the pain, it didn’t help like I had hoped. Instead of passing through the cage with some burns, it just repelled and threw me from it. I fell on the floor and panted hard, not even feeling the burns in my feet. My heart was suffering more pain than my body. If I couldn&

Kayla’s POVStephen looked startled at my sudden confidence, but then he smiled at me condescendingly.“My dear niece, I hope you have no illusions that you could fight against all of us? Being a girl and a measly wolf at that, you wouldn’t have stood a chance even if they were ordinary wolves. But with their magic, you have lost before you even start.”I didn’t bother to respond to him before looking over at the men next to him. With narrow eyes, I speculated about their strengths and anticipated their moves. I couldn’t ignore any details without knowing what would help me in dealing with them.“Aww, the little girl really is thinking of fighting us!” one man teased me.I walked backwards, and their eyes twinkled merrily, thinking I was going to run away. But they frowned in confusion when they saw that I just stood behind Zane.“Oh, the p

Kayla's POV I looked at Zane with wide eyes and slowly turned to see Stephen standing there with a wide smile. He looked just as I remembered. As if he hadn't aged a day since the time I saw him five years ago. Come to think of it, he looked even younger than how he looked then. Either the life was really good for him or he had a few tricks up his sleeves to keep aging at bay. Given the crazy hunger for power he possessed, he couldn't have had a peaceful life that prevented him from sporting grey hair. And from the magic raging around us, he was definitely dabbling with wizardry and I had a feeling that it was also responsible for his youthful looks. I looked at him with a blank expression pasted on my face and even though his face looked exactly the same as when I had seen him when he was younger, he felt different somehow. Then I realiz

Kayla’s POVAs Raymond got busy with shouting instructions to his loyal followers, I slowly slipped away from him and walked over to Zane, who was standing there with a sour look.“Relax. You know I don’t care for his attention, right?” I whispered.“As if you cared about that when you saw Maggie flirting with me.”I flinched at the reminder of the witch and bit my lips when I realised that he wasn’t clueless about her pining like I thought he was. I had to give Kudos to his act, though. Even I was fooled into thinking that he didn’t notice her efforts.I looked up to see Zane’s nostrils flaring, and then he narrowed his eyes.“Just as I thought.”Huh?Zane looked at me with a smirk.“Guess who is reeking of Stephen’s scent?”My eyes widened in the realisation that Zane got Stephen’s

Kayla’s POVI stared at the skinny guy who stood staring at the unconscious man with a proud expression. He dusted his hands off before looking around the hall as if waiting for anyone else to challenge him. People looked at him and then the brawny guy on the ground before scampering off while a few lingered around, praising his strength.I watched as the bigger man who was still unconscious was dragged away from the hall by his peers. For a werewolf to become unconscious and to stay so for this long, how much force should have been used on him? That too by a guy who looked as if he couldn’t even stand straight on his own.It smelled really fishy, and I just knew it in my heart that this was all linked to Stephen. I didn’t have any evidence that said so, but my instincts were screaming at me that this has Stephen written all over it and my instincts had never let me astray so far.As the g
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY: DANCING AND SPYING...
Kayla’s POVWhen I thought of going to hunt Stephen, what I pictured in my mind was both of us getting dressed in badass spy costumes and searching for him stealthily until Zane gets his scent trail. And I thought it wouldn’t be much of a hassle since we were fairly certain that he was still somewhere in the state and we only needed to stop by in each of the towns before he could come across the vile man’s scent. We wolves could sniff out our prey for miles, and with Zane’s superior tracking skills, he could track the scents even farther than regular wolves.I had mapped it all in my head, and that’s why I was surprised when Zane declared his brand new plan that had nothing to do with what I had in mind.Zane had vetoed my grand plans by telling that it would look suspicious if we go to every town and sniff around for Stephen. He may get wind that we were searching for him, and we would nev

Kayla’s POVOnce Zane informed me that he got Stephen’s scent, I thought that we would start hunting him right away. But he insisted he needed to get some things done before commencing the tracking. My excitement took a nosedive at his declaration, but I decided I could use the time to check the snake’s diary.We locked the cottage, and I ignored Zane’s ill concealed laughter as I buried the key back in the plant pot. What is wrong with having a hiding place for a key?!When we reached the hotel room, I made a beeline for the couch and sat with the diary in my arms. I wanted to know what all nasty secrets it carried.Zane looked at me with amusement shining in his eyes, but seeing my determined expression, he left me to it before going to the balcony with his mobile.I opened the diary and noted that it was from the year of the rogue attack. For him to lock it in a hidden compartmen
