AEGENLeaving the palace was difficult, not it was not but leaving Ianna was. Especially now, knowing that she might be in danger. We didn’t know who this was, we didn’t know where he was. He could be at the palace for all we knew and yet. I was leaving her behind.My heart was not at ease, but I had to go. She wanted me to be the best warrior in the kingdom and not her mate and father of her unborn child. She trusted me to get this person and put this matter to rest.It has been a week since I left her, and three more people have been killed so far. A she-wolf from the silver moon pack and a close guard to the young alpha of the deep-water pack. Jeyden. He too was killed the same way as the others.Another was the young alpha from the Golden Moon pack and this one was a friend of Jeyden. Now I believed that the person who was doing all the killings was after Jeyden, but we still didn’t know why.We were now back at the Deep-Water pack to question the kid. I want thinking this person
IannaI studied until noon then I went and got lunch for myself. I was starting to feel dizzy, and I knew it was because I didn’t eat breakfast. Aegen would have been angry with me if he knew I didn’t eat breakfast.He would have accused me of starving his child. Not knowing that I didn’t have appetite this morning. After eating, I felt sleepy, and I decided to go and take a nap for a while before going back to my studies.The week has ended and there were still no new leads on the serial killer. Aegen was getting frustrated by all of it. I could hear it in his voice very time we spoke on the phone. But there was nothing either of us could do about it.This person has to be stopped. One way or the other he has to be found. I told my guard I was going to take a nap for a while and that he should not let anyone disturb me. I missed having a friend in the palace.Now that Aegen was not here, I didn’t have anyone to talk to. It was lonely. The omega bless their souls try to talk to me and
AEGENThe guard went looking for Ianna’s phone in all the places she went to toady, but he could not find it. I tried calling it again, but it kept ringing with no answer. I didn’t think much of it when I asked my head of security to track it.But I started to worry when she told me that she tracked it to the woods close to our spot. Our spot was between the palace and the deep-water pack. There were only three people who knew about that spot and one of them was dead.Me, Ianna, and my dead sister. Also, I knew that Ianna would not have gone to that spot without me. We promised we would find time to go there together. Plus, the guard said she never left the palace grounds since I left.That only meant one thing, that her phone was stolen, and the culprit was someone who worked in the palace. I wouldn’t have cared about finding the phone if it wasn’t for the serial killer we had in our hands.I could not take any chances and there were no coincidences with these kinds of things. So, I
Ianna, you are destined to be the strongest warrior and Luna this land has ever seen. You need to build up your strength before that.—Moon Goddess.Ianna’s POVToday is my sister Lissa’s Eleventh birthday, I hopped down the stairs excited about having a slice of the chocolate cake mom baked for her last night. It was big and I could not wait to have my share. My mouth watered just thinking about it.When I got to the kitchen Lissa, my sister was already having her slice. With excitement I went and took mine. Just as I was about to take a huge bite from it, Lissa slapped the cake out of my hand, and it fell on the floor.I looked at it with my eyes glittering with tears, why would she do that? “Who the hell do you think you are? Mom made this cake for me, for my birthday. What gave you the right to take it?” I could hear Lissa, but my eyes were still on the slice on the floor.I really wanted that cake, I bet it tasted so good. “What are you still standing there for? Take a broom and c
Present time – IANNA’POVToday is my 16th birthday, a day that should be celebrated in my life with a grand event. Not only because I am turning sixteen but because this is the day, I should be getting my wolf. Today I become an adult, I get to connect with the whole pack and be able to mind link with everyone.Exciting, right? Not. I woke up today and did my daily chores in the hope that my mother would do something special for me today. That she will care enough and acknowledge that sixteen years ago today she had a baby girl, me. Not only that but also because it’s my first day of high school. I have been homeschooled throughout primary school and now I get to be around other kids my age. Make friends and be normal, like everyone else in the pack. I made breakfast and when I was done, I rushed to the closet, I called a room and took my bucket. I went to fill it with water then went to take a bath. I was humming as I washed myself, I was excited for many things today.When I was d
IANNA’S POVI muffled my cries trying not to make too much noise, but the pain was too much. Bones cracked and twisted in different directions. It was so painful that I cried out in pain. I knew shifting for the first time was painful, but I didn’t know it was this painful.I wished I had my mother or father by my side to help ease the pain. It was too much that I was sure I was going to die in that forest, and no one would know. After what felt like forever with me reeling in pain and crying the pain stopped.I fell to the ground feeling exhausted, I closed my eyes wanting to take a nap. But before I could do that, I heard a voice in my head. “Hello Ianna, my name is Sandra, your wolf.” A smile crept into my face.I had a wolf, at least one good thing happened to me today. I had my wolf. I got up excited and Sandra laughed. “It’s good to see you are excited to meet me, do you want to see want we look like in wolf form?”The excitement I felt when she said that was unimaginable. “I wo
IANNA’S POVThat evening I tried to distract myself from the pain by doing my homework and reading. But that did not help, of course, because when pain and depression hit you, it is hard to just ignore.The truth is that I was in pain, as much as I don’t blame my mother and my sister for what they doing to me. it doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt. It hurts more than anything in this world being hurt by those who were supposed to protect you.Lissa was my older sister, and she was supposed to care and stand up for me when others bully me. But she is the one who starts the bullying. I don’t want to blame her either, she learned to treat me that way from our dear mother.She was the one who was supposed to teach Lissa about sister love but instead she taught her how to lie, deceive and hate. Yet, I am the one being called the curse. Sometimes I wonder if she is my real mother.But then again if she is not then who could my mother be? I did not just appear out of thin air, I was made by people
IANNA’S POVI did not go back to class for the rest of the day, I stayed in the bathroom with my thoughts. No one wanted me there anyway; they all resented me for something they had no proof of. It would make their lives easier if I did not exist. So today, I will not exist.I was tired as well and needed a break from all the cruelty. Sitting in that bathroom for hours listening to girls gossip as they came in and out. I was the main subject of their gossip of course and the new girl no one knew.Pamela the girl who made me bleed was worried that the new girl might snatch Luka away from her. She did not like the way Luka was looking at her. I wonder why she would blame the poor girl and not Luka who was looking at her.Just before lunch time, I left the bathroom. I knew it was going to be filled with students and I will no longer have the peace I had. I left and went to sit on the football field. I was hungry but I woke up late and did not pack any lunch.“You are a difficult girl to
