JasonI stopped right in my tracks when I saw Kayla running back into the pack house. She wore an enraged look on her face, and I couldn’t help but think of what might have happened to her. Never have I seen her this angry. She looked like she was at the verge of exploding. Alpha Damien was running behind her, trying to hold her and prove a point, but she wasn’t stirring a bit. I stood in a corner and folded my hands to my chest, carefully observing them to take note of what was happening. Whatever it was that was currently going on was really pissing Kayla to the core.Just then, I saw something that almost made me scream. Kayla lifted her hands and threw a slap across to his face. My eyes popped out of their sockets and my heart flew out of my chest. I’ve never seen her behave in such a violent manner…I saw what prompted the slap, though. He tried to touch her in an improper way. Deep down in my heart, I could swear that she did the right thing. She walked into the pack house
KaylaI carted my eyes downward coldly as I rushed back into the ball party, with my eyes red in rage and my breaths uneven. No one dared disrespect me in such a manner! Not even the so-called Alpha…I didn’t care if he was a cold and feared Alpha, I was different from the female werewolves in his pack and that simply meant that he shouldn’t dare do that to me. I stood in a corner in the hall, fidgeting slightly and trying to steady my wobbly feet. I had brushed past Jason earlier, and I needed no one to tell me that he was fully aware of what had happened.Alpha Damien’s words kept hitting my brain and I let out a small, terrific groan. Just then, it was announced that it was time for a dance. My mood for the entire evening was already spoiled. All I wanted to do now was head back to my room and get a good night of sleep, even if I was aware that it would take time to come by. People scampered around for a partner while I remained still, recovering from the shock I just had outsi
Jason’s PovSomehow, I knew that I would be called into the situation with Alpha Damien, and that was one thing I didn’t want. I had seen everything that happened. I could tell that the Alpha was wrong because he had touched her inappropriately. It was disgusting, and I was enraged that he tried that out with Kayla. However, I still had my reserve, and I wasn’t willing to waste it on some stupid situation between her and the alpha. Firstly, she was the one who had attracted his attention because of the long tight and fitted dress she wore. If only she didn’t dress in that manner, he wouldn’t have caught sight of her. I knew when she was called by Father and I could tell that he was totally displeased with her. But then, I watched from afar, paying little to no attention to them. That was before I was called…“Did you see what happened between Alpha Damien and Kayla?” Our father asked, and I darted my eyes to Kayla, who wore an innocent look on her face. I swallowed hard and clenc
KaylaIs this what the mate bond entails? A strong support system even when you were not expecting it? My eyes were opened in shock as I gazed at Mason, Ethan, and Jake who were firmly taking my side against their father. We were in the middle of a party, and they didn’t even care about that. Inasmuch as my heart was totally gladdened by their display of affection and help, I was truly troubled. This might raise suspicion among pack members because each of them could attest to the fact that the quad never treated me like a sister.“What the hell is going on?” Alpha Damien asked in shock as he looked at the three of them and back at the Alpha King. I could swear that he never believed that someone like me would have a solid backing from the three Alpha king sons. This made my heart race in excitement. I wore a look of proud that overshadowed the look of pain I wore some seconds ago.“Mason, Ethan, Jake. What is going on?” The Alpha king asked them, suddenly feeling weak and lost wi
Ethan It’s been days after the incident of the ball party. It was quite strange that we heard nothing from our father. He didn’t even punish us like we thought he would. I couldn’t help but wonder what he was up to at the moment…"Your highness, the Alpha King seeks your presence at the council room," a voice that was almost drowned by my groans sounded from behind. I'd been on the training ground trying to flex some muscles, all was well until the guard came with the message.My jaw unhinged. I sheath my sword before slipping into my black crocs skin leather jacket. My father rarely summons us to the council room unless it is very important.Beads of sweat formed on my forehead. I just needed a cold bath, and spend the rest of the night doing something more fun than training with Bianca. The mere thought of it caused blood to flow through my groin. I feared it'd burst open through the zipper.The guard cleared his throat, his head was slightly lowered. He knew better than looking m
KAYLAThere are words that brought a significant change to one's life, for me today was that day. The day when the words that would turn things around were said.I'd seen it coming, what I wasn't expecting was it'd be so soon. When the Alpha summoned us to the council room, I knew it was important… what I didn't know was that it'll be nerve wracking.Was this his punishment for what happened during the part? That includes Kayla.The words held defiance, hatred and less than a pint of empathy. From the way he stared, if he had his way I'd be miles away from the academy, he loathed me and didn't hide it. For once I wished the hatred had transcended to excusing me from meetings.I saw the way he stared down on me. His gaze burning a deep hole in my flesh, I wished a look of disdain could kill, I'd rather die from the impact of his stare than going to the academy with the quadruplets.He sought answers from the seer, but was he ready to face the consequences of knowing the answers. The q
JAKEI'd just finished folding the last pair of jackets and stuffing them inside my backpack. The sun shone brightly casting a fierce illuminance across the room. Today, the long awaited day was here– the day we tread the path of our destiny that'd distinguish the one with the special power the scrawny seer had mentioned.Even if I was indifferent about going, the thrill that came with knowing who the special person was, was a driving force to pique my interest. I set my luggage on the floor, pulled out the handle and rolled it on the floor to Jason's room.He was pacing around his room, his fist clenched so tight, his knuckles were near snow white. "Hey man what's up with you?" I plopped onto his bed, my eyes fixed on him."Jason," I called again, this time my voice was firmer."Sometimes, I feel father is nurturing a kinda fear he doesn't want to speak about," he said, still pacing around, his fist still clenched.I shook my head, "What are you talking about?""Why is she coming alo
KaylaHe was the calmest, Heck! The one out of the quadruplets who made living in this hell a tad bit easier. That was all I needed in this charade I called life.I let the butterfly I'd cage over these days freely swoon around as his lips fiercely grazed mine. I closed my eyes so the mental image of what we were sharing would be embedded in my memory for as long as long itself entailed.The kiss was like a solace that would lead me through whatever I was going to face at the academy. I wanted more, the insatiable urge to claim every inch of his body consumed me so much that I didn't hear the knock on the door the first time…till whomever stood behind knocked again, snapping me off from my moment of bliss.I straightened up adjusting my blouse that exposed a better part of my breast. My heartbeat doubled as I took cautious steps to the door, relief washed through me when I saw Bella standing in front of my room.She was slightly angry from having to stand outside knocking repeatedly.
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
