JakeNo, this was not the plan. I mean, what was Jason doing? I never thought or imagined that he would be able to do something like that, right in front of our mate…“What is Jason trying to do?” Mason asked, staring at Jason who just got done with the long lengthy speech he just gave about how much he loved Ashley. I swallowed hard when I looked over at Ashley and saw how glad she was with what he said.“It was all Ashley! She made him do it”, Mason said in conclusion, clenching his fist and gritting his teeth as though he was going to rush over to her and tear her into tiny shreds.This was beginning to get over the edge and I was so uncomfortable with it. At this, I walked over to Ashley who was standing beside Jason.“Ashley, can I have a word with you?” I asked, watching how she swirled around and threw dead glares at me. “Jake, what do you want?” She asked, rolling her eyes and hissing aloud. “I need to talk to you for a moment”, I replied almost immediately, gulping down ha
KaylaNever have I felt so hurt in my heart. This one hit differently and it was quite clear that I felt that way because they were my mates.Why would my mates decide to hurt me in such a manner? It was totally uncalled for. I clenched my fist in rage as I took in a sharp breath and tried to stop the tears that threatened to fall out of my eyes.My heart was beating heavily and I suddenly felt weak. If I had known that this was how things would turn out eventually, I would have remained in my room and stopped myself from attending the party. Just then, Ashley walked over to me, with Bianca strolling behind her. I knew what this meant; torment. I made to leave immediately, but they caught up with me in no time, with a fierce look on their faces. “Are you trying to run away from us?” Bianca asked as she dragged me back and blocked my path. I folded my hands to my chest and rolled my eyes at them, wondering why they won’t let me be even if they had the quad on their sides. “Why wo
KaylaI ran as fast as my legs could carry me and didn’t stop until I got to my room. Tears blurred my vision as I ran and it wasn’t surprising that I hit my leg on a stone and travelled down the ground. My leg ached terribly as I limped down the remaining distance to my room. Once I got to my room, I broke into tears and sank into bed, playing around every single thing that happened that evening. I could still hear the echoes of Jason’s voice and that was enough to make me scream harder. And then, the taunting that came from Ashley and Bianca was another thing to deal with . And James who I wanted to talk to was there, making out with another lady…My life was in a mess and I felt so alone. I didn’t have a single person to talk to or call a friend in the entire academy and for the first time since I came to the academy, I felt that I wasn’t fit for it. Perhaps, this wasn’t meant for me. There was no use being at the academy when I had no one by my side. Everyone seemed to have th
JasonAshley forced me to have a dance with her and despite how hard I pushed against it, once I got threatened, I succumb. I was still drowning in the guilt that engulfed my heart because the look on Kayla’s face killed me. She looked so shocked and hurt and I was certain that it would haunt me for a very long time.I never believed that I would be able to stand in front of everyone and tell them that Ashley would be my Luna. Yes, I knew that there was a time I usually told her that she would be my Luna, but that was a long time ago and before I met Kayla. But then, Ashley ordered me to do that or else she would openly tell everyone right there on the spot that Kayla was our mate and she caught Ethan kissing her. “We should have fun and pretend like Kayla doesn’t exist”, Ashley said with a bright smile on her face. “As a matter of fact, she told me that she is glad that I would be your Luna”, Ashley said and immediately, I froze. I turned to look at her, with my heart beating a
Ethan Just as I stood at the party, my mind was lost in thoughts of what I had just discovered. Inasmuch as people were dancing, I didn’t feel any need to have any bit of fun. My heart had a lot of questions and was filled with a countless uncertainty.The old man that day had given me a book which he said would answer every single question I had about my research quest and just as he said, it happened. That night, I returned to my room and once my brothers were asleep, I brought it out and scanned through the different pages of the book.The book was encircled around the story of a girl who got mated to four people. At first, it looked like her mere imagination until she because certain that she was indeed mated to four people. As I read further, I learnt that at the end of the day, a choice had to be made. That simply meant that she would pick one of us to would eventually mark her as his forever…That was the part that made my heart fly out of my chest. We were her mates, but n
Kayla POVI grabbed the little box the minute the man went in to get the compass and luckily, he didn’t take note of what I had done when he returned.Once I was done, I dashed out of the library and started making my way out of the academy. I thought of going over the fence, but I knew that my physical strength was so low that I won’t be able to jump over. At this, I had to think of something.I had a compass, a map and the little box that might help me. At this, I was very set for my quest to find the seer. “Kayla!” I heard a very loud and familiar voice and immediately, I hid behind a tree. It was Jason. My heart raced as I looked at him intently, trying so hard to decipher why he was calling me. He was the same person who pretended that I didn’t exist and a couple of minutes ago, he was standing there on the stage and telling the entire world that he was in love with me. So, what changed? Why was he looking for me? I let out a deep hiss as I decided to think less of any of th
JakeWhen Jason sent a mindlink where he alerted us that Kayla was missing, I thought that he was only trying to pull our legs. This was because the last thing I ever thought would happen is Kayla’s disappearance. She was there at the party and even if we didn’t say a word to her, she looked cool…until Jason made that particular speech. “Her room! Let’s check her room”, Ethan said via the mindlink and immediately, we rushed towards her room while hoping that she would be there. It was a very long night already and I couldn’t wait for it to come to an end.Earlier this night, I had called on Ashley to tell her that I could use her previous act to work against her, but the response she gave me sent cold shills down my spine. And now, we were looking for Kayla? We got to her room almost at the same time and met her door locked. “Ashley mentioned that the keys are usually by the flower pot”, Jason said and immediately, I went over to the flower pot to search for the keys. The keys w
Third person.Jason appeared to be the most disturbed from the rest. He felt guilty for everything that had happened and swore to get everything settled. He had no idea of what to do since it was obvious that Ashley and Bianca was innocent.“I doubt that Kayla left here by herself! I mean, where would she go to?” He asked the others who stared back at him without an idea of what to say. “Someone took her out of here!” Jason suddenly declared and immediately, they all turned to look at him in shock. “Stop trying to place the blame on someone else! You are the cause of everything”, Jake shouted, getting ready for another round of banter. Jason took in a deep breath and clenched his fist in fury. He was beginning to get tired of his brothers because everyone of them placed the blame on him and they were not making an effort to think otherwise. “Can we stop putting the blame on me? Everyone of us here is at fault for betraying her! It’s not just only me”, he said defiantly but Ethan l
Third person. A month after the death of the Alpha King and the rift between Kayla and the quad, she decided that it was time to let them in on everything that happened when she was at the forest. She wanted them to know that she had to choose just one of the quad as her mate for life and that was the instruction from the moon goddess. She broke the news to them one morning and the shock on their faces showed that they weren’t expecting to hear something like that. “But she chose you as our mates!” Ethan cried out. He was quite pained to hear such, even if he hadn’t really said so much words to Kayla. “You will find another mate once I make my choice”, Kayla explained as they both exchanged glances with each other.They gulped down hard and nodded, gesturing for her to go ahead with making her choice. “And so, who are you picking?” Jake said as he stared at her, as though he wished that she would choose him. Kayla stared at each of the quad, with tears dripping out of her eyes.
KaylaIsn’t it funny, the way live goes? How things start up on a bad note, only to transit to being good and then, return back to being bad. The quad had been a thorn in my flesh right from the very beginning but when they turned out to be good, I had a change of thought about them.It was crazy to witness a time when they returned back to being mean and nonchalant about things that concerned me, their mate. This was exclusive of Jason, who despite all, took me in and told me that he still needed me around. That gave me a sort of hope…if Jason wanted me, then I’m just fine. The strange woman whom I had met during my journey in the forest had told me that I could only choose one of the quad and I just knew that Jason was going to be that one. None of them knew about that, at least not yet. I had no idea of what such information would bring but I was getting ready to bring them in on it the moment I felt was right. “What are you thinking of?” Jason asked as he walked over to me,
Third person. Kayla swirled around to meet Jason, who had his hands inside his pocket and his gaze lowered to the ground. He had a small smirk on his face, and a questioning look that sort of asked the question of why Kayla would ever think of leaving the pack. “Jason?” Kayla called out, quite surprised to see him there even though she wasn’t so convinced that he would want her to stay back. As long as she was concerned, she was unwanted at the pack and has always been unwanted at the pack. “Where are you going to?” Jason asked again as he took another step closer. He has this fierce look on his face that suggested how he was both pained and confused by her decision. “I’m leaving”, she replied with a voice that sounded like a whisper, trying so hard to avoid gazing into his eyes. Jason gulped down hard and darted his eyes away again. “And why are you leaving?” He asked as he rolled his eyes at her. “No one wants me around. You all think that I’m a danger to your pack b
KaylaI sat on my bed as every memory I ever had at the pack started pouring back into my brain. I blinked off the tears that welled up in my eyes as I stood up and strolled over to the window. A huge part of my life was in this pack, and although most of it turned out to be terrific, I still didn’t want to leave. However, I needed to because despite how hard I wanted to make amends with the quad, they weren’t willing to do so. I finally packed up my bad and started making my way out of the pack. I could have easily made use of my powers to vanish and never be seen, but for some reasons, I wanted every single person at the pack to see that I was leaving indeed. Just as I approached the gate, I felt someone watching me. I swirled around and tried to place my hands on who it might be but I couldn’t. At this, I ignored the weird feeling and trudged further away. And then, I heard what sounded like footsteps. It was clear that someone was following me but whosoever it was didn’t want
Kayla It was high time the entire fight came to an end. I was exhausted and needed someone to cling on but that seemed to be impossible because every single person deserted me. “Please, let’s make peace”, I said to Jason who was looking at me as though he had just seen a ghost. Despite how hard he tried to avoid having an eye contact with me, I could tell that he missed me as much as I did.“Kayla, everyone needs space at this point and it’s only cool that we leave things the way they are”, he explained just as I searched through his eyes as though I could really tell what he felt. “That’s not true. Deep down your heart, I know that you want all of these to end. I know that you desire me. I know that you want me. I can feel it in my bones”, I said in a whisper as I used my hand to caress his cheeks softly. He froze the minute my hands touched his skin and that was yet another confirmation of what I had just said. There was no need extending the situation when we could have peace a
Third person. Everything remained silent for a couple of days. However, the silence that reigned over the entire pack was one filled with so much tension. The quad were lost and unable to think of how to proceed with carrying their responsibilities as alphas. Kayla on the other end couldn’t tell if she wanted to leave the pack or remain there, especially because the entire quad was mad at her. Jason was not left out too. He was usually the one standing so firm behind her. It was quite heartbreaking to see him look away from her. She took slow steps out of her room, not failing to observe how the members of the pack shivered immediately they set their eyes on her. She was truly exhausted and all she wanted at the moment was peace. She hated being a reason to be talked about by the entire pack. Just as she walked, she bumped into someone and that prompted her to travel all the way to the ground. She let out a deep sigh after which she rubbed her hands that was terrible hurtin
Third person. Kayla ran out of the scene as fast as her legs could carry her, not sparing anyone of them a glance. She never intended to make use of her powers but it seemed as though her powers reacted in time it sensed danger “I don’t like this! This is becoming one crazy rollercoaster and I’m certainly not ready for this”, she cried out the minute she got into her room. “But you miss them…”, her wolf whispered and for some seconds, her cries turned to silent tears. “I do…but I doubt that things would go back to how it’s been”, she said, her heart broken to a thousand pieces. The quad were still hiding inside their various rooms, in their mourning state. On my part, I was cold and numb as I sat in the garden. I had a lot of thoughts in my head and even if I direly wanted him to apologize to me, I didn’t wish his death. He brought his death upon himself though because he had thought that Denver’s pack was at peace with him. That was the major mistake that allowed his de
Third person. Kayla and Jason were just in the middle of sharing a warm hug when a voice interrupted from behind, causing them to swirl abruptly. “Yes! She is a threat to this pack and if anything, she should be eliminated”, the voice added and slowly, Kayla lifted her head to meet that of the owner. It was Mason. Her heart dropped as she took down a very big gulp of her own saliva. She jerked up to her feet, lowered her eyes to the ground and drew in a very deep breath. “Mason, I understand how you feel. I felt that same way when I learnt of my mother’s death. Trust me, I was hurt to the core”, Kayla tried to explain but that seemed to further infuriate Mason. Mason eyes were on fire as he glared at her in rage. It felt as though she was responsible for their entire predicament. “Your mother’s death? Was that why you did this?” He asked with a broken voice and again, Kayla’s heart missed a beat. She couldn’t tell if she was sharing their pain because she was also their mate,
KaylaThe quad were still hiding inside their various rooms, in their mourning state. On my part, I was cold and numb as I sat in the garden. I had a lot of thoughts in my head and even if I direly wanted him to apologize to me, I didn’t wish his death. He brought his death upon himself though because he had thought that Denver’s pack was at peace with him. That was the major mistake that allowed his death. Just then, a loud wail came booming directly into my ears and abruptly, I felt a cold shiver running down my spine. It was Jason. My heart broke into a thousand pieces as I held myself from jerking up and running towards his room. They hated me and I knew it. I had refused to help them with my powers even though they screamed and asked me for help. What was I meant to do? Save the man responsible for my mother’s death? That was something I would never do. A tear dropped out of my eyes as I clutched on to my chest and broke into a very silent sob. This might just be the re
