118. Crushed faith
Last Updated:
2023-10-28 06:00:32I only awoke when I felt the car come to an abrupt halt. Startled, I sat up straight at once, but the familiar surroundings instantly calmed my nerves. A sigh of relief left my mouth as my eyes landed on a huge mansion. I was finally home. Lucien opened the door to my side, and I swiftly got down. As soon as I did, my eyes found my mother who was just coming out of the house.
Tears welled my eyes at the sight of her. How much I missed her! My legs involuntarily started making their way to her in haste, and within a second, I was in her arms. I wrapped my arms around her neck as tears ran past my cheeks, endless sobs erupting out of me.
“Oh, my darling,” My mother said, kissing my shoulder, “I was scared to death something had happened to you!”

Kiara’s POVCold water cascaded down my body as I stood rooted in my place. Clasping my eyes shut, I felt my muscles tense as the relentless shower poured from above, drenching me entirely. My breathing was shallow as teeth chattered against each other, protesting against the chill but I refused to move away. I knew that this was a fleeting moment of torment necessary to charge my body, while numbing any soreness in my body.Early riser that I was, I woke up before the sun’s rays filled the sky. I had only gotten a few hours of sleep in the past few days, but my body refused to spend any more time on the bed. Realizing there was going to be no use in trying to chase sleep once I’d woken up, I’d decided to take a quick shower.Soon en

Kiara’s POV“She hasn’t left her room for two days.” I jumped as I heard Lucien’s voice behind me.Looking over my shoulder, I found him standing a few feet away from me, an irritated look etched on his face. He looked at me with disappointment and anger, as though I hadn’t finished a task that was assigned to me. His reaction made me frown, making me wonder why he was complaining to me at all.“Maybe she wants to be alone,” I said, focusing my eyes back at the mountains that sat in the distance. The sun was still hovering in the sky casting its evening glow but the eager moon had already leapt out. The atmosphere around me was serene and calm, soothing my nerves. I was about to completely submerge myself in i

“I can’t believe you’re making me do this.” Marcus grumbled as we went down the stairs.“Good, now also remind yourself why.” I said, glaring over my shoulder. I couldn’t understand why he was so upset with me. Did he really think I was doing this all for Lucien? The man tried to abduct me, for heaven’s sake! Why would I ever favor him? Moreover, even if I was favoring him, I would own up to it. I would never use Bella as an excuse to do it, he should know at least that.I heard him sigh in defeat as I walked to Bella’s room. Ignoring his sulking figure behind me, I raised my hand up to knock on the door. We were patiently waiting outside the room but Bella never arrived. Frowning, I knocked again but was again greeted by silence.

Lucien was standing there in utter disbelief, unable to accept what he just heard. He slowly started making his way toward us, his eyes desperately searching for an answer he wanted to hear.“What are you talking about?” He finally uttered, walking toward her.“Lucien,” I started, “You shouldn’t-”“No,” he raised his hand up to stop me, “I need to hear it.”And then, he looked toward Bella again, “What did you just say?”She gritted her teeth before she said, “You shouldn’t have made that deal with my brother.”

Lucien was about to get into a car when I called his name. Picking up the pace in my steps, I hurried toward him. He shoved his bag into the back seat before he turned around to look at my approaching figure, a determined look etched on his face.“What?”“You can’t possibly think she means what she said.” I said, “You of all people should know that she is clearly lying.”“Honestly, I don’t care.” he said, “Because no matter what the truth is, Marcus is never going to let me be with her. I was willing to fight for her until my last breath, but if she refuses to admit her love for me infront of her own family, then perhaps I deserve better.”

“Stop ogling your man, Kiara.” Bernard said from beside me.I instantly widened my eyes as blood rushed to my face. Oh, god. Turning toward him, I fixed him with a glare.“What?” He mumbled back at my reaction, as though it was part of the normal now.Scowling, I nodded to my right where Marcus was also training close by. We were definitely within his ear shot, and I was sure he had heard what Bernard said just now.“So what?” Bernard dismissed me and rolled his eyes, “Hopefully it will make him think straight.”Surprisingly, amidst everything, Bernard emerged as the sole warrior

I halted in my footsteps as I noticed Amanda sitting with Marcus in the living room. I hadn’t met him even last night when I arrived from the forest as he had already gone to sleep. I felt a pang in my chest when I realized that he didn’t wait until I returned as he usually did. When I awoke this morning, he had already left the room. I assumed he had work to take care of as Ethan mentioned last night, so when I found him with his mother in the living room, I was slightly taken aback. “I know this is not how you wanted to celebrate your engagement, Mark.” Amanda sighed, “But given the circumstances, it would be a shame to let go of this opportunity to use in our favor.” “I understand,” He said, “But I’m not the only person that needs to be on board with this.” “I can talk to Kiara. I doubt she’ll have a problem with it.” “I’m sure, but that’s not who I was talking about.” He said, “I’m more concerned about Bella. She’s not speaking to any of us, how can we expect her to make an

Marcus’ POVThe scent of her was tormenting me.She was everywhere. In our living room, in our garden, between our sheets, and most important of all, in my thoughts. No matter how much I desired to stay away from her, she just kept infiltrating my mind and space. And now, as she looked out the window of the car with a pout, all I desired to do was pull her towards me and comfort her.But I couldn’t.Everytime I wanted to show her any love, her actions from the past few days came into my mind. I could never forget how she worked with Lucien, how she let me think that striking up that deal with him was a good idea, how she constantly worked in favor of the man that killed my father.

My Second Chance With The Alpha 200. Epilogue
It’s been four months since the war, and nothing remained the same. The aftermath of the battle was just as gloomy as the events leading up to it. Although the threat to our survival diminished significantly, it took us a long time to accept the disastrous consequences of the war. With so many lives and resources lost, we all had to work extra hard to restore the balance of our community. However, it was only after these four difficult months that we found a reason to celebrate once again. And the occasion was Bella and Lucien’s much awaited wedding. When Lucien took over his empire, Bella and him decided to move out of our house. Starting a new life of their own beyond the mountains, they remained away from us for longer than we’d hoped. Although Amanda visited her a couple of times, both Marcus and I haven’t been able to make time for the same. So naturally, when I met her earlier today as we arrived at their new house, I couldn’t control my tears, and neither could she. “I’v
My Second Chance With The Alpha 199. You did it
Considering who we were dealing with, we should’ve known better than to believe that the Lycan King would stick to the rules of the war. When the war began, both the parties established that none of the fighters would carry the war beyond the battle ground. However, after experiencing significant loss yesterday, the Lycan King had perhaps realized that they were heading for defeat. It drove him to do what he was doing right now, breaking rules and going to capture Bella. Thank God Lucien and I caught them before it was too late, for I don't know what would have happened if the Lycans had infiltrated the town. “Where are they?” I asked in impatience as I looked out of the window. As soon as Marcus was informed about what the Lycans were up to, he asked us to head straight home. Bella, Ethan and Natalie were already shifted home by the time we came, along with the baby and the other staff at the medical center. Our army was heading into the town now to fight the Lycans although few

“I heard you were hurt.” He clasped his eyes shut in regret, shoulders slumping down. When he opened them once again, his eyes flickered toward the two men who were awkwardly standing by his side.“Please leave us alone, Potter.” “Yes, Alpha.” The man with the blonde hair nodded and walked past me to exit the room. Once my eyes were on him again, I noticed that his disappointment was still persisting. “Come on,” I said, “You can’t be mad at me.” “Of course I’ll be mad at you Kiara, what were you thinking?” He said, “I’d particularly told you to not do anything stupid and you come all the way into the danger zone all alone?” Tears welled in my eyes at his strict tone. I understood why he was reacting like this but I hoped that he would have some empathy for what I was feeling. He couldn’t expect me to not do anything when I knew he was in danger. “I couldn’t help it.” I managed to say, “I was scared for you. And I knew that if I told anyone, they would never have let me come here
My Second Chance With The Alpha 197. Following my heart
My hand instantly wrapped around her, reclining her onto a nearby stretcher. Thank God I’d asked for a midwife to stay on stand-by, I was suspecting this would happen. “Take her into the operating room right now!” I said as the nurse took over. “Kiara.” She clutched my hand, forcing me to come with her into the room, “I… I need Ethan.” My heart twisted in pain as I looked into her eyes. Conflicting emotions arose within me as I contemplated what to say to her, making me temporarily devoid of voice. Noticing my hesitation, she shook my hand once again.“Kiara?” “Yeah…” I said as I found the courage to answer her. There was no way I could tell her the truth in this condition. I would have to mask it with a good lie until she was in a position to hear the truth. “Natalie, I’m so sorry, dear. But Ethan is in the middle of a battle. I’ve got the news about half an hour ago, I can’t get him to you now.” “Oh, God.” She groaned, falling back onto the pillow, “I don’t think I can do this
My Second Chance With The Alpha 196. Trust
Although Marcus was giving me the most reassuring smile he could, I couldn’t help the trepidations in my heart. The war had arrived much sooner than I’d expected, making it even harder for me to let go of him. In fact, I didn’t think any number of days would have prepared me for this one, for no wife would want to bid adieu to her husband as he prepares himself to fight the most cruel monster known. Despite my attempts to have faith in Marcus’ abilities to kill the Lycan King, I couldn’t help the worry that traveled all the way to the pit of my stomach. It was merely days ago that we were happily relishing our honeymoon, and now, Marcus was heading to a war. I was feeling a lot of emotions right then, but fear dominated them all. “Kiara?” He said, placing his hand on my shoulder, “Oh, don’t look at me like that, darling.” Pursing my lips, I gave him a defeated look, “Alright,” I sighed, “I’m going to be so worried for you.” “I promised I’ll be careful.” “I don’t trust you.”
My Second Chance With The Alpha 195. Better than anyone
As luck would have it, Marcus and I arrived home right about the same time. Relief washed over his features as he saw me running towards him, opening his arms for me. “Thank God you’re alright.” He said as he pecked my forehead. “Marcus,” I said, breathless, “What the hell was that about?” “We got news that Mary’s Husband, Victor, is part of a rebellion.” He said, “He is a Lycan.” “What?” I asked, “H-how did he-“ “He mostly probably came as an Immigrant, and is looking to turn our people against us.” He said and looked towards our house. “We need to get out of here, Kiara. Our men are going to take care of it. I’ll deal with him later.” “Okay.” I nodded and let him lead me into the house. Within minutes, our bags were packed and loaded into the boot. Hoping into the car, Marcus drove away from there. “Does this mean Mary was also a Lycan?” “Most probably.” He said, “Her husband is leading the rebellion. Of course, she’s aware.” “I knew it.” I mumbled under my breath, “How co
My Second Chance With The Alpha 194. Get out of there
The next morning, Marcus got up earlier than usual.After having endured very little sleep the previous night, I’d expected him to sleep in through the morning. He didn’t inform me anything about our plans for today, so I was curious to find out what he was up to.As he stepped out of the bath, his eyes frowned against me. “You’re up early.”“I could say the same about you.”He shrugged, “Well, I have some work in the town. I’ll have to step out for a bit.”“Can I accompany you?” I asked, “I’ll be bored here.”“You?” He said, “What will you do there? Trust me, you&rsqu

Thankfully, the cook was gone by the time I returned back into the dining room.Having wrapped myself with a robe, I let the wet strands of my hair dry against its fabric. Marcus was swiping on his phone mindlessly when I walked in, but upon noticing my figure, he put it away.“Were you waiting for me?” I asked as I poured myself some orange juice.Nodding, he held out his own glass to me. After filling it to half, I put the juice container away.“Is everything okay back at home?” I asked as he opened the dish to serve some food into my plate.He looked at me. “Of course. Why do you ask?”&nbs

“How long is it going to take?” I asked as I splashed some water towards him.Marcus gave me an unimpressed look, staring down at his white shirt that was now filled with wet marks. I couldn’t help but giggle as he walked further away from the shore, to a point where the waves wouldn’t meet his feet. Shoving his free hand into the pocket, he said something into the phone.Rolling my eyes at him, I swam further into the water, enjoying the blissful morning in the ocean. I ducked my head under the water and tried to swim along, positioning myself along the force of the waves. As another sway of the wave pushed me from behind, I momentarily lost composure and flipped. Frantically moving my arms, I tried to stay afloat until my feet reached the sand.
