Kierra's POV"Aden, Aden. Wake up… please… Aden"I was so frightened and confused. The last time I was this sacred and devastated was ten years ago.Aden had collapsed after he succeeded in destroying the light rods in the elevator. I thought I was going to lose him. I recalled the dream I had sometime back. "Was this what my dream meant?" I thought to myself, that there was an impending disaster looming over…Something of this nature had never happened before or it is possible the lighting system was malfunctioning.The doors to the elevator opened just in time. I carried Aden out, even while unconscious he looked in so much pain. He was quite heavy but that wasn't an issue for me as I knew what my strength is worth. His fair skin had turned greyish, with blisters all over. The damage the light caused to his body was bad.I was in tears, I could not call Lucian for help because we left him in the parking lot and he hadn't come up yet. I wasn't sure if Menessa had arrived yet.Now,
Aden's POV"Why do you keep talking to me in such a manner," the much older man asked"Hey man, I am not going to repeat myself. You aren't allowed in here. I told you to get out of here" Elliot yelled "Hey, Elliot you are being rude. Stop it! Do you know him?" Lisa whispered "It doesn't matter. He should leave" Elliot answered Elliot was causing a commotion, the man he was yelling at looked hopeless. Elliot seemed to be getting worked up over nothing. It wasn't like the man was doing anything bad or saying anything wrong, he just wanted to speak to Elliot and step into the pizza shop— well that's how it looked to me unless there is something I am not aware of."I don't want to see you here when I come back. I know what you are here for. You are not welcome here and I am not going to help you." Elliot spoke aggressivelyFrom close observation, Elliot seemed to have a history with this man. It just wasn't mere dislike, it looks like there was something going on between them."Ellio
Kierra's POV"You have changed. Ever since you found her you haven't been yourself. You don't attend the weekly meetings. You are distracted and He is very angry with you" Mr Anderson complained"What do you mean by that? She's my guest. Do you want me to leave her all by herself?" Aden replied"What I am saying is that you are giving her too much of your time and attention. Things are beginning to fall apart and you aren't even aware of the damage this is causing" "What exactly is falling apart?""Hum, I guess the news hasn't reached you yet. Maybe your secretary will let you in on it when you arrive at work tomorrow.""What is this about? You are dragging this out for too long. Tell me since you are here and are aware of the problem.""You can see why I told you that you have been slacking. One of your large companies is affected by the recent meltdown in the market. We have been struggling to revive it for a few months now but unfortunately, I think we have to let this one go as w
Aden's POV I was so angry at what Mr Owen did to Lisa. That was so selfish and wicked of him... He knew Lisa wouldn't dare go against his wish because Lisa needed the money to see herself through college, and Pizza Lovers was the only place she had for now.I thought of sending Charles and Piers to teach him a lesson but I didn't want to deprive myself of the pleasure of seeing his face when I was done with him.Mr Owen was a man who drank a lot, even at work he drank when he had the time to spare. I met him drinking in his sitting room with the remote control in his hands switching from one channel to the next. I was here to threaten him and make him grant Lisa her wish. The faster I get the job done the better." What's a werewolf doing here…Who are you and what do you want?" Mr Owen cried out in horror, I guess my size alone would give him nightmares.I was expecting such a reaction from him. I wasn't stupid to meet him just as a human. I had to shift.I picked him up, lifting h
Kierra's POVOddly, I haven't seen Aden for the whole day. I asked Madam Charity and she said he hasn't come downstairs since morning. She told me his breakfast and lunch were all taken upstairs to his room.I knew he wasn't sick. Something was wrong for him not to show up at all. Even if he decided not to come downstairs, at least he usually used to show up in my room to check up on me or say a simple good morning "Or was it what Mr Anderson shared with him yesterday?" I marvelledI went to his room and knocked on the door. There was no answer. I knocked again, but still, there was no answer.I turned the knob and the door opened.Aden was sitting on a chair with his legs on his desk. This was where he usually did anything work-related when he came home.He looked lost. He was only in his trousers and stockings. He continued to look into space, not aware that I was in the room."Aden. Are you alright?" I tapped him on his shoulder pulling him back to the present."Kierra, it's you
Aden's POVIt's been ten minutes since I knocked at the door and no one has come out to receive the Pizza yet. I was getting impatient. I was about to take my leave when the door swung open.What I didn't understand is why they took so much time to open the door. I could hear movements in the apartments but no one came to answer the door in time. I could see a bunch of guys having drinks and playing cards. They were four of them or probably they were others, I couldn't tell.There was something strange going on in this house, I felt it. That gut feeling of mine again."Here you go sir, your order"i handed the package to the man who answered the door."Oh sorry to keep you waiting. We forgot we ordered some Pizza. We were so focused on playing cards all day. And we had to fix broken water pipes in the bathroom." He said "There's no problem" I replied. "Hope there's a lot of meat in it," he asked. He looked so friendly but my wolf warned me not to trust that smiling face, it was a ma
Kierra's POVWhat happened a few minutes ago in Aden's bedroom was beyond my comprehension. I have looked forward to the moment when we will both be one, in body and soul. Irrespective of whether we ended up as mates or not. I love Aden and I am willing to be with him. I was embarrassed when I cried out before Aden could have intercourse with me. It was about to be a special moment for me, a moment that should not be jeopardised by anything but…That flash headache destroyed everything, it was something I have never experienced. "Why was I experiencing it now?" "Or was I falling sick". " or perhaps was it still the effect of me outperforming myself to save that kid that night?" These were questions that I was asking myself. That second flash of headache felt like I was about to die. This m made me violently push Aden away from me. I was surprised that I did that. I wasn't in my senses.I concluded that It could be that I pushed him out of pain. In a few minutes, I was fine. I fe
Aden's POV"Huh, so you guys think you are smart, right?" I whispered to Henry I'll commend them for their smartness by hiding the entrance with a rug but this proved they were crooks, men who looked naive like this were the worst. Just look at my naive twin brother—he turned out the worst.Before I dragged the carpet, I needed to be sure of one thing. If they also had the tattoo of the crown and moon.I checked the bodies of the two guys on the floor but their bodies were clean, with no tattoos. I checked Henry as well, but nothing. I asked Henry if the idiot I threw out had any tattoos too. He said none of them had tattoos.This only meant that these four guys were not part of Moonking's ring of loyal men but were helping him deliver his victims."Who is Igatus?" I asked "He is the Moonking's right-hand man" Henry replied "I see. You know the MoonKing?" I asked"No, Igatus always mentioned him as his boss but we have never seen him. There's a rumour that no one has ever seen his
Kierra's POVThat was a shocker.Scott is Moonking and he is Mr Anderson's son. Who would have ever thought?Mr Anderson has been responsible for everything that was going on in Kenvy. "Kierra, you are surprised. Well, dear. I have been watching you for a long time. Father instructed me to follow you to Minx when he discovered that is where you fled. I came to Minx five years ago. I tried to woo you the civil way but you rejected me.""Scott is my son. A hybrid. Half-vampire and half-werewolf. That's because I fell in love with a vampire beauty who gave me this treasure as a son. The rest of my story with his mother is none of your concern." Mr Anderson disclosed. "My son here will be the one true Alpha. The King to all." Mr Anderson added."Yes, Father. That has always been my dream. To be powerful and rule all werewolves under one reign. My reign! But you Kenvy's are a pain in the ass. Your forefathers stopped my forefathers and you think you will stop me again. The tables will tu
Aden's POVKierra killed Igatus!A man who felt invincible to be easily defeated gave me hope that we could do this. Lucian was right when he said Kierra as a primordial could defeat the Moonking. This is why Moonking wants the powers for himself, to forcefully establish that new world he desires.I was surprised that Kierra was that werewolf that saved Kelvin from the fire. And now she saved us from it as well. Fire was one of our main weaknesses, we dreaded going close to it. To see Kierra unscathed was a relief.I was happy she put an end to Igatus. A man who is crazy enough to kill his cousin. All of Igatus's men had run off after they saw that their master was slain.We took Beatrice, Kierra's friend to the hospital, as a human, she is fragile and the experience with Igatus has traumatised her. Witnessing Lucian's death broke her. It hurt us all that he did not make it. He only wanted to love and be loved. He wanted to do one thing right, he was tired of being evil. Elliot said
Kierra's POV Why do terrible things have to happen to me? This was a question I kept asking myself. Lucian's revelations and confessions were not easy to take in. It made me feel used. All I want to do now is save Beatrice and Lisa. Aden seems to be concerned about her. Argon had called my number so many times since the incident at the Morrison mansion. I refused to answer any of his calls. I wonder what a liar and deceptive crook like him wanted to tell me. We all planned to rescue Beatrice and Lisa tonight. Nothing was going to stop us. All six of us were going to Raven Park and we are going to come out of there alive. I do not care what Aden and his friends think of Raven Park, I would go there even if it were located in the underworld. I am never going to forgive Lucian for what he did. How could he install a camera in my room? All those steamy moments with Argon were seen by someone else …. Uh…..this is so embarrassing. Aden had done well for himself, he told me how he
Aden's POVI collected Argon's number from Kierra.He picked up his call on the third ring. "Who is this?" Argon asked."Your worst nightmare" I replied."What? Who are you and why have you called this number?" He asked."Who I am is not important. That which you desire to have is here with me. Now you know how it feels to lose that which you lust over.""So you are the one who took Kierra! Whoever you are I promise you I will find you and I will kill you. Kierra is mine and mine alone. No one can take her away from me.""I will love to see you try," I said and ended the call. That will be enough to put him on his toes and give him sleepless nights. I made sure to block his number so that he wouldn't be able to reach my number if he tried. I went to the living room after my call with Argon. I meet Elliot speaking with Kierra. It seemed he just got back."Finally, you are here. That's a relief." Elliot said to Kierra."Elliot, how have you been? Heard you stepped out for a while."
Kierra's POVIs this real?Why is my life getting more complicated by the minute? Is everything in my life a joke?Everything was a lie. I had high hopes.What's all this? Aden is not Aden. He is Argon! And the real Aden is the stranger…that I have been talking to.All I could say to the man before me was"What is going on here?""Kierra, I never told you because the fact that I am a twin was kept a secret from everyone except a few." He said."And why is that? " I asked."I'll tell you but please let's get out of here first." He answered.I stood looking at him in awe, I was still struggling with the reality before me."Am I a joke to you?" I yelled at him.It was heartbreaking, thinking about what I had gone through at the hands of the fraudster who takes a name that isn't his. One minute Aden loves and cares about me, the next minute he is in possession of the killer's pendant and wants to restrain me by all means. As if that is not enough, now he has a twin.I had to escape that
Aden's POVAs I ride towards Morisson mansion, my home. One I haven't seen in ten years. The memories I had in this once beautiful place was one I cherished and will never forget. I begin to recall them all.How did we even get here? Everything was all beautiful until one man decided he didn't like it that way. Mr Anderson has no family so I would not blame him because he does not know the evil in separating father and sons or a brother from his brother.For Kierra's friend to go missing meant that things were not going well in that house. And soon it will be Kierra who will be pronounced missing like her friend or dead like kierra. This thought propelled me to move faster. Madam Charity said Argon was asking questions about what she had told Kierra. She swore to him that she didn't mention anything to Kierra.It is clear that he is scared. It beats me all the time whenever I think about why Argon will choose to go after my own woman when he could have any other in the world.Ten ye
Kierra's POV I was surprised at my composure, at how I was able to play it cool for a week. Both I and Beatrice acted like we didn't know what Lucian was involved in. With Beatrice's discovery, Lucian wasn't the humble, loyal and sweet guy we knew anymore. We wondered how the perception one has about another could easily and quickly change by just finding out the truth about them. Things were beginning to make sense now. Igatus may be the mastermind behind the killings, that was why he beat up Lucian and was angry he saved her when he wasn't supposed to intervene. How have they stayed under the radar for so long? And I definitely know there is a third man behind the scene. Igatus mentioned him the other day. I heard him clearly. With the revelations and events happening around me, I was becoming more distant from Aden and my fear was for him not to notice these changes. I know Aden was smart enough to pick up on the fact that something was wrong by now. Although, on my part, I t
Aden's POVElliot called to tell me Lisa was nowhere to be found. This was weird because Elliot had told me he would wait for her to be done with her classes, and then they would both go to her apartment to pick up her stuff and finally come over here. That was how it was supposed to be.That was the plan!My world was falling apart. The crisis was growing; Kierra is with my evil twin brother, Madam Charity has been stuck in that prison called a house for ages, Menessa is dead, Charles is nowhere to be found, and Lisa has gone missing for hours now. What wrong have I done? Perhaps I am cursed! That was the only explanation for why I had a series of problems.People around me end up getting hurt or dead. I was losing confidence in myself. Whenever I think of getting back what my brother took from me; that's becoming an Alpha again, I stop to ask myself if I deserve it. I feel like an imposter. I used to feel great about being able to fix things but I wasn't confident about that anymor
Kierra's POV"You should stop asking such questions in the open Miss Kierra. It's not safe for you and me." Madam Charity typed."I am sorry, but I really want to know who you are. What role do you have to play in all of this and who is the stranger giving you directives? Is there something the Alpha is hiding?" I asked."Miss Kierra, all you need is a little patience. I didn't know it was you all this while until Menessa told me. We all thought you were dead.""What do you mean you didn't know it was me? I have been in this house for a while. Why are you telling me this like you are just meeting for the first time? How can you say you never knew who I am? You must be kidding, right.""Patience, you will soon find out the truth, all you need to know will be told to you." I didn't want her to confuse me further since she wasn't going to tell me anything for now. So I just agreed to what she asked. I'll be patient."If you say so." I typed. She motioned for us to leave the cellar.The
