Kai's POVMy heart pounded in my chest as I stood dumbfounded, my locked eyes with Alana fierce ones. Her once shy gaze now held a fiery intensity that sent warning signal down my spine and alerting my wolf almost immediately. Moment ago, we were almost about to kiss as there was an undeniable force that still pulled our body towards each other and just like that, all of the attraction was been replaced with something savage and almost carnal. I couldn't understand why she was acting so enraged all of a sudden but I wanted to find out, needed to know what was going on with her. I took a step closer and was about to take her hand in mine when, suddenly, Alana's wolf form exploded into motion. Claws extended and charging toward me. I braced myself for her attack, ready to defend myself without a doubt but to my uttermost shock, instead of coming directly at me as I had expected, she moved to the side at the last moment, her massive wolf body colliding with another figure that seem to
Alana's POV “He would have thought about that before trying to sink his claws into my flesh” Kai's word echoed in my mind as I hurried down the pack corridor. He was going to kill that boy even though he is just a kid and me? If he knew I was here to also kill him what would he do to me? Probably make an example out of me too but that was the least of my worries at this point.I was more worried about my state of mind as i found myself caught up in a whirlwind of unwanted emotions, my mind reeling with frustration as I reflected on what had transpired between Kai and i at the waterfall earlier today. Everything happened too fast, Vel leaping to the rescue was a situation I couldn't control. We were supposed to work together not against each other but so far, it’s seem my wolf has a mind of it own and going contrary to what we have been asked to do by the alpha.I was given just one instruction, my mission crystal clear: To kill Kai Everest and return with his head as proof to secure
Alana's POVI stood there with hitched breath, my heart racing in anticipation as Kai continue to approach where I stood painfully slow, and I couldn't help but wonder what he wanted.He moved closer until he was only an inch away from me, his gaze intense and making me shiver literally. I could feel the heat radiating from his body from such close proximity and making me tense up some more.He leaned even closer, his stance was as if he wanted to claim my lips in a passionate kiss, but instead, he reached out his hand towards my exposed upper arm, his eyes examining the red bruises on my shoulder. “You have a cut on your shoulder and its healing too slowly”I glance at my shoulder and brushed his comment off, “it’s nothing serious. I will tend to it when I get home”I was in such a hurry earlier that I forgot to apply Abigail’s healing balm to it. I had sustained the injury while battling that oceanic wolf back at the woods earlier.“I can have it clean, if only you would allow me “
Alana’s POV“Kai?” his name stumbled out of my mouth in disbelief as I continued to stare at him with panic. “how…how did you get in my room?” Within a moment, he moved to sit in front of me, his hands gently reaching out to cup my cheek so I could look at him, “I came to apologize over what happened then I heard you screaming and forced my way in. I’m sorry” Memory of my dream flashed through my mind once more and I shutter, “it was horrible” “It’s okay, Alana. It was just a dream. You’re safe” At his words, I couldn’t help but break down in tears, my shoulder shaking violently as more sobs rip through my mouth. What if it wasn’t a dream. What if something bad has happened to my children and Alex. Everything felt too real, the pain and horror I witnessed in their eyes was the worst I have ever seen before. Tears continued to tumble out of my eyes uncontrollably. I felt helpless and shaken yet unable to share my pain with anyone else. I watch his jaw tightened as he leaned forwa
Alana's POV:The next morning, I got dressed in my training attire with my hair pinned up in a ponytail to keep away from my face before making my way to the pack's training ground with only one intension in mind: to get Kai to teach me how to kill him without even realizing he was.By the time I made my way passed the guards at the entrance, Kai was already there, sword fighting with his beta Adam, his movement was swift and almost predatory, sending warning chills down my spine.I bet Adam was good too even though he was barely holding up with Kai’s relentless movement over and over again.Both men were so engrossed in their own training session that they didn’t even notice my presence. I just stood there watching from a close distance, taking note of every one of their key moves.Just then, Kai’s head snapped at my direction, his movement slowing to a stop as he locked eye with me. Adam stopped as well, his eyes following Kai’s line of sight before settling back on me.“oh, I get
Alana’s POVI saw relief wash over him at my reply before he nodded without another word exchanged between us. Adam caught up with us eventually before I waved them goodbye and began to head home in the opposite direction.As I made my way back to my house, the adrenaline from my training was still coursing through my veins. I reflected on our conversation and his reaction. Maybe I’m wrong, but I saw disappointment flash through his features at the mention of children.Was he disappointed that I had children for another man who wasn’t him, or was he just disappointed in the situation? Whatever it was, I guess I am never going to find out what thought had plunged into his mind earlier.As I approached home, I couldn't help but feel a mixture of anticipation and anxiety course through me. I wasn’t expecting to see Nadia and some pack women who were obviously under her command blocking my path.I bet she couldn’t fight her battles and had to employ the help of her followers to come do it
Alana’s POVThe days that followed filled me with more dread than ever. Time was running out, and I still hadn’t come up with a good way to kill Alpha Kai. I was nervous and, above all, frustrated with myself.I didn’t choose this life. Furthermore, I never asked to be used as a pawn for some malicious intent, but I can’t deny the part I am about to play either.I arrived at the training ground that day after another sleepless night, my heart pounding with anticipation as I readied myself to burn off some steam from my system.Kai had been teaching me some self-defense moves for the past week now, and today I was eagerly awaiting yet another session.But as I approached the training ground all geared up and ready to be taught, I was shocked to see that only Adam had shown up.“Hey, Adam,” I greeted him, trying to keep my tone neutral.“Alana,” he replied, nodding curtly. There was an intensity in his gaze that made me uneasy.“Where is the Alpha?” I asked, looking around.Adam pushed
Alana's POVAs I arrived at Luna Emilia's pack house, I was greeted by the warm and inviting aroma of home-cooked food. I could smell freshly baked bread with some roasted turkey and soup. My stomach grumbled almost immediately, reminding me just how famished I was and making my mouth water.As I walked further into the living room, I was met by Luna Emilia's presence. She smiled warmly at me and stuck out her hand. "Welcome, Alana"I smiled back and shook her hand, feeling its softness against my rough ones."You're just on time. Dinner will soon be ready," she said, and I nodded. "We will be eating outside because it's a lovely night."I couldn't agree any more than to simply smile some more and nod in acceptance. Just then, Alpha Kai walked over with his daughter Willow tucked into his side.My heart didn't forget to skip a beat as our eyes met, his presence enchanting and commanding immediate attention. Luna Emilia excused herself, leaving us to talk."Hello," Willow said to me. I
