Author's POV

“I didn't expect things would turn out this way. But I must say fate is really on our side.” Elizabeth sounded jubilant when she met with Leila and Declan later in the week.

Declan smacked his lips in delight, “when Leila had found out about her father's recent death sentence, I thought it was a joke. It's obvious the Alpha's family is keeping it a secret for now. Sour for them, sweet for us.” He grinned.

Elizabeth nodded along, she didn't fail to notice Leila's unusual quietness. Since the both of them had reached a compromise, Elizabeth had given up on trying to conquer the girl. No doubt, she is the same as her. And it was hard conquering one's lookalike,

“What is the matter Leila? You don't look too excited. This is good news for us all. It makes our task easier.” She noted

Leila inhaled, sitting up. “Yes, but I noticed something really weird.”

“What would that be?” Declan asked

What are you doing in the kitchen and what are you trying to do?” She bellowed taking determined steps towards her. Leila moved away from the large kitchen island, putting both of her hands up. She has never really been much of Amber's fan, the girl always had one reason or the other to act bratty towards her. Which is not unusual for Amber, she does that to her sister too. However, her sudden attitude appears too suspicious. “Why are you being rude, Amber? I was just trying to make a relaxation tea for the Luna.” She muttered Holding up the said tea, Amber tried to sniff with her inner nose, realizing she must have stirred up Leila's suspicion that she knows something. She let out a cackle, making a funny face. “I caught you! Was just playing around, I thought it was Kira at first.”Leila wasn't convinc

    Author's POVLeila yawned in loudly, groaning in frustration when her phone alarm came on yelling into her eardrum. It annoyed her more when it turned out to be the notification she had set as regards Kira's movement. The location she put on didn't exactly work as expected, all through the night she checked websites to get any information as to track someone. She eventually got her hand on an app which enables you to send an anonymous message to the person's phone number, the app will then send the message to their phone, wherever they are, along with a tracking link.To be sure it would be effective, she had ensured to put in a loud beep to keep her updated.

It was just 5:45 in the morning, and she was already subjected to leaving the comfort of her bed. “Where In the world could she be heading to at this time of the day?” Leila moaned to herself. Pulling off the duvet, she got herself dressed hurriedly, ignoring her father

    Xander's POVI was worried to death when I saw Carl on the bed, looking lifeless. Miguel had called in the hospital to send an ambulance. Turns out he is actually down with a fever, it's rare for a werewolf to have a fever and pass out that easily. There has to be some underlying ailment. The doctor didn't say anything until Carl was resuscitated.“What's wrong with him?” I asked the doctor, Kira and Miguel stood behind me. The doctor sighed, my heart paced at the thought of him saying something scary. “He is fatigued and hasn't been sleeping well. From the look of it, there was a lot on his mind, which was why the fever leeched onto him easily. He would only recover fully when his mind is at peace. Please excuse me.” I turned to Miguel, “A lot on his mind? How is that even possible?”Miguel looked just as perplexed as I was, “I wouldn't know either, Carl is always active. He gyms every morning, cooks, and works at the bar, so swiftly you would never envision him being worried.” Ki

    Author's POVEven though Leila prides herself in having the solution to every situation they are in. Most times, she wishes Declan wouldn't be so stupid and act like a man that he is. When he had brought up the name of Mira Maddison as their only option to ruin whatever was brewing between Xander and Kira. She thought he knows her, had access to her contact and other necessary things. Leila almost screamed her lungs out when it turned out that, Declan only knows the said Mira by name and nothing else. To prevent Elizabeth from gloating about how she can handle everything. Leila had taken it upon herself to search for a Mira Maddison in the whole of Blackstone pack. For three days, she has met about three different Mira Maddison on the social media platform who didn't know anything about a person called Xander. She could only hope the place she had been directed to that a Mira Maddison stays was the right place. Leila was a bit bothered when the door opened, and she came face to fac

    Kira's POVCarl's absence was immensely felt, the bar and gym didn't exactly feel the same without him. And this morning I am not in the mood to be trained by Xander, but knowing him well enough, he would call me and make me pull my ear back to him. For now, I will just laze around until noon, it's been a day since I checked on my dad. Because of how heart-wrenching the view is, I leave his room crying my eyes out. He gets paler with each passing day. I met Amber in the hallway heading to his chamber.“Hey sis.” She grinned at me. I huffed, “why are you so happy?”Amber raised a suspicious grin at me, “is there a crime in being happy?” “I don't like how calm you appear.” She snorted, “jealous pea.” I laughed lightly, “silly.” “Kira, have you noticed mum lately?” “What's wrong with her?” “I wonder if you exist around here Kira. You live in a clouded space in that head of yours. I would think it's the tea at work, but it's been doing wonders in my body.” She twirledI observed h

But she wasn't listening, Kira kept going back and forth, cursing under her breath. Miguel glanced at me to say something, but in actual truth I didn't know what to say. It's her feelings and her right to express it in whichever way she chooses. “I'm very sure she has something to do with this. I'm going to kill her!” She bellowed angrily.Kira has barged into the gym as early as I can remember, wailing loudly. I had thought her dad was dead. Instead, she said her mother was examined to have been ingesting poison. Which will automatically lead to wolf paralysis and ending the poor woman's life. Kira keeps insisting Leila has something to do with it.However, every edible in the house has been examined, and they came up with nothing. Which means the poison didn't come from the pack house. “Are you trying to fault the forensics result of the Luna's consumption. They stat

  • Reborn Luna Kira Cinderellla    Epilogue

    Kira's POVIt's been a month since the Blackstone pack got rid of its plotters, a month since Elizabeth died. Leila and Declan have since been locked up in the dungeon awaiting their trial. There was no need to hurry it up, it's not like they would ever get an escape from there. Their sentence would be judged based on their two times attempted murder and plotting against the throne. I wish them nothing but the best in their forthcoming trial. After the deed, Xander got to investigate on the fraud Elizabeth had engaged in while she ruled as the CEO of his father's company. It didn't take long before he got his rightful position back and took over his inheritance. I was thrilled for him, as for Mira, I had to have her released. She didn't really do much, even though she had kidnapped me. I didn't need to tell the pack council that. Uncle John kept to his promise and has been visiting from time to time. He and my mum seem to enjoy spending time together playing Scrabble. I'm glad she

    Kira's POVXander didn't wait for me to explain further, he said he was on his way. I wanted to avoid making any hasty decisions without the key members of the pack. In less than thirty minutes, the large meeting room was filled up with every member of the pack council and Xander. “Why did you call a meeting all of a sudden, princess Kira?” Zeta Felix inquired.Asking for them to wait for me, I called in John to repeat his information about Elizabeth and the rest to them. Which he repeated without mincing a word. They couldn't doubt him, my father had ensured the pack members could trust the rogues with their words. Beta Mason scoffed, “how dare them even think of going up against us? Such audacity!” “What should we do now? Should we go after them?” Asked Felix.I sighed, turning towards John. “What do you advise we do uncle?” He shrugged, “there is much to do, I have no intention of taking my men on a fruitless journey. So, since you won't be crossing anybody's territory without

    Kira's POVI feel like whatever it is that has brought uncle John to the pack house must be vital. Whatever it is I can only hope it would be of help to the course on the ground. The entire pack has been on high alert for the past week over the escape of the pack traitors. Knowing they wouldn't give up and might be planning something big against us. I have asked the zeta to engage in rigorous training with the soldiers. They need to be as prepared as possible.After lunch, John asked to have a word with my mum and me. Amber left reluctantly, I am sure she is just as keen to know what he has to say just like every one of us. Calling him into the study with my mum, we all settled on the couch waiting for him to speak. John cleared his throat, clasping his hands together. “I want to start by saying that this family means a lot to me, and I am not just saying this to sweet talk you. Kendrick made me understand that being different from the rest of the people doesn't mean you must be evil

    Author's POVJohn got lost in thought as he drove towards the pack house. He couldn't seem to feel sorry for Elizabeth. She deserves whatever comes to her, he never would have thought that a time would come when he would be able to look her in the eyes without breaking down. John would have never imagined himself to be a lover. But then love knows no rogue or anyone else, as soon as your heart finds interest in someone. You are doomed and nothing else helps. He didn't get a chance at finding a mate, which implies he could choose any woman to be with. His treacherous heart had him fooled by Elizabeth, and he fell for her with no caution.For some reason known to her alone, Elizabeth comes to drink at the usual spot of the rogues. He had noticed her countless times, she would sit alone drink herself to stupor and somehow find her way home. The day he finally got the courage to approach her, she was still on her first bottle. That was how he got to know of her husband's maltreatment. Jo

    Author's POVTaking another look at his wristwatch, Declan's heart remained unsettled as he thought about what would become of him is John refused to show up. It's almost noon, and he still hasn't caught a glimpse of him. His eyes continue to glance at his mother, who seems to be having a swell time mocking him. This might probably be the end of Declan ever trying to do things on his own if a flop occurs. Gripping the edge of his chair tightly, he exhaled. “Are we going to sit here all day waiting for no one to show up?” Elizabeth inquired. “It's not noon yet, Elizabeth. There is still plenty of time to be patient.” Leila chipped in, tired of Elizabeth gloating about her ability. Leila wants Declan to have enough control, which would put Elizabeth on the sideline and give her more power. She wished more than anyone that John would arrive and show his support to Declan. Standing up, she patted his back to comfort him. “What if he doesn't come?” He asked her. She shook her head, wh

    Author's POVRunning as fast as his legs could carry him, Declan moved at the full speed of rage. When he got to the rogues' territory, he was beginning to feel fear at how tough the guards looked. Bracing himself, he walked towards them with a determined stride.“Where do you think you are going?” One of the guards said in a tough voice. Declan held his gaze, “I want to see your leader, John.”The guards stared at each other, laughing, one of them said. “you have got a lot of nerve to come in front of us and seek for our leader. Who are you?” “Tell him, I am Declan, the son of Elizabeth and the next Alpha of Blackstone pack. And I won't leave here until he talks to me.” They burst into another fit of laughter, wondering if he was crazy. Their laughter faded at the sight of his determined look. Whispering to one another, one of them ran into the pack to find their leader. John was seated in front of his cabin, enjoying the atmosphere, with the damsel next to him massaging his feet.

    Author's POVDeclan clenched his fist hard, trying to suppress the anger inside of him. His wolf was the most furious, and he felt like jumping at someone. John had demeaned him with no regard, and his mother had sat there acting like it's nothing. His ego felt bruised, even if he hasn't done much, that doesn't make him weak. “I will make him regret ever talking down at me like that. Is this what you want, mum? For people to see me as a weakling and have no fear of calling me one. Thanks for birthing a fool like me!” He glared. Leila sighed, the room had been tensed since the leader of the rogue left. It was more tiring considering how angered Declan is. “Calm down, baby. There is no need to act fussy, what we need right now is to find a solution. It's obvious we can't give up now.” “You had better listen to your girlfriend, she appears more sensible than you are.” Elizabeth mocked him. Tears pricked at the back of Declan's eyes, as he stared hard at his mother. “I should have kno

She was seated in one of the cabins, with Leila and Declan looking tensed. The both of them couldn't seem to hold themselves up for a while as their fears and doubts were obvious. Elizabeth knew she wasn't going to back down soon, her promise to have Kendrick's family pay too wasn't fulfilled yet. Her eyes lingered on her wristwatch and the cabin entrance again. “How long are we going to seat here for?” Declan asked. “Who is this person you have been waiting for, for two days? You haven't said a word since we got out here, and no plans on how to get back our place in the pack. Are you sure you thought this through?” “Can you keep quiet, Declan? Shouldn't you be abl

Bowing my head lightly, I sat in the reserved chair. “Good day everyone, thanks for honoring my invitation at such short notice.” I said to them. Beta Mason stood up, “this is the first time we would be having a general meeting with the apparent heir. And we couldn't just sit back without showing our faces.”I inhaled, looking towards Xander, who gave me an affirmative nod. “I don't know how to say this, but I will start by appreciating every one of you for standing by my father all this year's. We're still keeping the pack glued together despite his absence. Thank you. Today I have called you altogether, to save our pack. This has been going on for a long while, but I didn't see any reason to call onto anyone until there is some level of certainty.”The gathering murmured among themselves for a second, befor
