Reborn Luna Kira Cinderellla

Chapter One

Kira’s POV

"Well, well, well," a tiny feminine voice called out from within the darkness of the forest. My heart beats increased as it began pumping a lot of blood into my arteries due to how close the voice sounded to me. 

My feet suddenly became cold and I moved my eyes in a circular motion around the length of the environs to see what it was that called out to me. 

All I could see was darkness. Terrifying darkness that pierced into my soul. The light coming from the moon was not even that bright either as it was not a full moon. My ever-vibrant wolf, Ayla, became mute.

The dry leaves on the soil rustled noisily the moment I took a step backwards, initially scaring me.

"Don't move!" the voice called out to me again, but this time in a commandeering tone of voice . Her voice sounded so fierce that it made me shiver momentarily. 

My sharp ears were able to pick up the squeaks from the rats in the forest. I could also smell a body.

'Human? A dead body?' Different questions popped out of my head. 

"No, it can't be," I shook the thought out of my cloudy head as I stared into the darkness. 

"What do you want from me?" I summoned the courage to ask the person in the dark.

But when they didn’t say a word, I gripped my sack bag to my chest, trying to keep it safe. The bag contained some of my belongings I will be needing for escaping.

The night was the only safest time to run away from this place; Away from this dangerous pack where I was treated as an outcast. 

"Look who we have here," a voice called out from the darkness. This was different from the one I heard earlier. The voice was hoarse and throaty in a way that it sent shivers down my spine.

"If you are that bold. Show up! Why are you hiding behind the darkness?" I blurted out in sudden rage. I didn't know what kind of confidence came over me, but somehow I knew that it would have me killed.

In a twinkle of an eye, a strange but sort of familiar green eyes perched on my body. The eyes scanned my body and I wrapped my arms around my chest, hugging my sack bag tighter.

"Look what we have here," he came closer to me so that I could see him clearly. What I saw made my teeth grit. My body trembled on seeing the muscular 6 ft figure in front of me.

"Declan?" I asked again, blinking my eyes continuously at him. I couldn’t believe this; couldn’t believe he still had that signature hatred in his deep dark eyes. 

"How did…did.. you…," I stuttered. My sack bag fell onto the ground as my hands shook vehemently.

"How did I find out?" He helped me complete my statement. 

"Did you just ask me that?"he inquired and I held my breath for some seconds as his dangerous stare refused to leave my body.

"Declan…I can explain. I swear, I can explain," I muttered but he smirked and snapped his fingers. Then, a slender figure came out of the darkness. Her aura was so powerful that it almost pushed me back. 

"Leila?" I asked. "I don't understand what is going on. Can someone please explain what is going on here?" I cried out.

Declan was the one I loved. The Alpha of the Blackstone pack who brutally made my life hell. He wasn’t exactly like this months ago, especially during our courtship.

He just simply changed towards me a few weeks after our wedding, after I had passed on the mantle of leadership to him.

I was the only surviving child of my parents who were the past Alpha and Luna, and I was only allowed into the throne after I had successfully gotten married to Declan.

I always wondered why he suddenly changed towards me. But did I stop loving him? I never did. 

"I doubt if anyone can," Leila answered, playing with her fingers.

"This was supposed to be a secret, Leila," I bit my lips as tears rolled down my face. I couldn't believe what was happening. Leila knew everything about me. She knew what I was up to. She knew my next step. How on earth was she with Declan?

"For how long have you been lying to me, Kira?" his thunderous voice shook the forest and his strong hand gripped my tiny neck.

I struggled to breathe. My shaky hand moved to his fist as I tried taking his hands off me. But, he was more powerful than I was. My weak eyes were almost shutting up. 

I tried looking at Leila and I noticed a thin smile across her red plump lips.

"You have so many charges against you and you know the consequences," he said in my face and squeezed my neck further. 

I was almost passing out. I could feel it. 

"De..De…clan…"

"Don't let my name come out of your filthy mouth, you fool," his anger blew up and a strong force pushed me backward until I hit my back on a tree.

After some seconds of weird silence, I managed to talk, ignoring the pains piercing through my body. "You betrayed me, Leila. I thought you were my best friend."

"The least you should trust is your best friend. Weren't you told?" she disclosed, a devilish smile appeared on her lips and her perfectly carved eyebrows furrowed at me in a way that was almost mockingly.

I have no clue what turn my life was going to take. I didn’t have anyone to run to, even my husband treated me like a slave… thus the reason I tried to escape.

I was starved of food and water. Hot iron was placed on my body and burning coal was placed on my tongue. All these while, my best friend was the only one who stood by me. 

I can't believe she did this to me. I can't believe she revealed my plans to Alpha Declan.

"These are the charges against you and we have proof," Declan started and Ayla growled. Her sizzling rage was overpowering my soul and if I didn't control it, she would take over me completely. 

My claws were already shooting out and it dug into the thick soil of the forest.

"You lied to the oldest elder about being pregnant," he dropped the first charge on me but I couldn't take it.

“Because I was actually pregnant!" I snapped in annoyance. I only lost my pregnancy after he had beaten me up until I bled.

"Any more word will make you regret your actions," Leila threw me a warning, but I ignored it. I tried getting up from the ground but my legs were too weak, they wouldn’t let me.

"A total of ten boxes filled with money and some filled with gold were stolen by you. We know where you hid them," Declan paused and I gasped.

"I didn't do any of this. I swear to the moon goddess that I didn't," I disagreed. “You’re all making this up, I know it!”

"The moon goddess bears no witness for someone who killed her own mother, Kira," Leila yelled, pointing a finger at me. 

A sudden silence fell upon the forest. Declan hovered over me like a beast about to devour.

"I didn't kill her," I stressed my words so that it would sink into their skulls. "I didn't kill my mother."

"Murderer!" He spat at me with scorn written all over his face. "I will kill you and feed your body to the dogs."

The way he had said it made a sudden chill run down my spine. I shivered from fright… but what scared me the most was the thought of what he planned to do with me.

I was still bothered about what they planned to do with me that at first I didn’t notice when Leila walked up to me and said the most painful words I had ever heard. Nothing,not even the death of my parents pierced me this much. I felt my chest constrict in deep pain as she whispered in my ears.

"I hope you know your best friend and husband are lovers."
