Kira's POV. "And how do I look, Bella?" I asked, as I twirled around the mirror, observing the stylish black coat, asymmetrical skirt and a double-breasted design featuring decorative buttons. The coat has long sleeves and a slight V-neck and it ended just above my knees. Bella had selected over-the-knee black boots with high heels, giving me an overall look of dramatic flair. "You look divine and dangerously beautiful, just as always." She complimented and I grinned. I know... I'm beautiful and I can never forget that. "You're late today, I've packed your breakfast and also..." She paused and I turned to look at her, "What's wrong, Bella?" "Well, the family... They're saying silly bad things about you and it's really annoying." She mumbled and I chuckled cause I understood where she's heading."Don't worry Bella, I'm used to such gossip, you don't have to let that bother you." I assured her before grabbing my bag but she was still looking bothered and I wish I could explain to h
Kira's POV. Work. Work. Work. It's just Wednesday and I'm already at the verge of losing it, it's all paperwork and zero action. My enemies can't just keep quiet like that, there's no fun in that, I want a great challenge, someone who will make my heart go thud! I'm beginning to doubt if I'm in some fucking mafia or just some playground... A playground where I'm playing with papers instead of guns! Wow! I will need to set a lazy day for myself, apart from weekends of course. The meeting I was in seemed boring to me, I wanted to do something exciting but all they're all talking about is boring bullshit."Ma'am, we're losing control over our clubs and businesses in Orange City. The leaders there are being rebellious and I think they have the backing of some of the family members." One of the men stated and that definitely got my attention, it looks like there'll be some action today after all. "That's interesting, tell me more about this, I'm very much interested in showing people w
Kira's POVThe ride to Orange City was smooth and uneventful, giving me time to go over the plan in my head. As we approached the city, the sun had set, and the lights of the city glimmered in the distance. The adrenaline coursed through me, sharpening my focus and the excitement I was feeling threatened to burst through me but I kept my cool. "So... Boss, what's the plan?" Cathy asked and I just smiled, "Well, I'm thinking of using this opportunity to have fun before we use the gun, what do you think?" I asked, looking at her with nothing but mischief.She was confused by my answer, "What do you mean boss?" I sighed, "we'll go there, have fun before we start any action. I want to use the opportunity to have fun first, Lucas is currently at the club because according to the information we got, today is his birthday and he's celebrating in style. Let's help him celebrate and then we'll take him. What do you think?" Upon getting my message, she smiled, "I love the way you operate, b
Kira's POV. With a signal to my team, the club erupted into chaos. Cathy and the others sprang into action, disarming Lucas’s men with precision and speed. I kept the knife at Lucas’s throat, my eyes never leaving his as my men did their work. The men could not shoot much because they didn't know who was who. A bullet actually pierced my shoulder blade but it didn't bother me, the wound was almost painless and it would heal slowly. "You made a big mistake crossing me, Lucas," I said, my voice deadly calm. "And now, you're going to pay dearly, your biggest mistake was actually underestimating me and that's really sad."Lucas's eyes were filled with fear as he realized the extent of his miscalculation. His pride had gotten him to this, I never knew it would be too easy to take him down, he's a bigger fool than I thought. "Please," he begged, his voice trembling. "Don't kill me, please don't."I leaned in close, my lips curling into a cruel smile as I sniffed in his fear. "Oh, I’m not
Kira's POVBy the time I got to the hotel room where I had planned to spend the night, it was already 1 am. My heels clicked against the tiled ground as I made my way into the room. Without wasting time, I began to strip because I needed a warm bath immediately. After stripping myself naked, I took a knife and tore open the part in my shoulder where that motherfucker had shot me. The place had closed up and healed but the bullet was still inside, I sunk my fingers into the open wound and searched for the bullet. Clenching my teeth, I tried to swallow the scream that threatened to erupt. I hated that it healed before I could even think of taking the bullet out. “Fu.ck!” I cuss as I throw the bullet to the ground in anger. I breathed in and out with my eyes closed. Because tonight is a good night, I will resist the temptation of going back to that club and destroying every one of Lucas's supporters whether they have learned their lesson or not. Strolling into the bathroom naked, I f
Kira's POVA car parked roughly in front of me caused me to step back a little as I positioned myself for another fight only to find Cathy coming down from the car along with some other men. They had worried looks on their faces as they asked. I scoffed at them before walking past them into the car. My body was aching and I was tired. I wanted to sleep and my back, which had been scattered with bullets, still hurt even though the wounds were gradually closing up. The force at which I had landed on the pool also added to the pain. That son of a bitch, Anthony Reign, I'll make sure to end his reign. Thank goddess they hadn't come with silver bullets, these bullets were nothing compared to those. I can bear this pain for a little while longer. “Call Jonas” I instructed and saw Cathy bring her phone out to make the call. The car was already on the road before we knew it. I felt the sharp pain in my elbow, I checked it out to find a glass stuck to my flesh. I gritted my teeth in anger
Kira’s POVThe next time I woke up, it was already past 2 pm. The room was quiet and slightly dark. I toss from one side of the bed to the other before finally sitting up. I felt relieved and strengthened. The pains were all gone but I still had to listen to Jonas advice. Taking two days off from everything Although he said a week, I don't think I can take a week off and the whole world will still be intact. I just need to take a few days off and my strength will return. I took my bath and dressed up in jean shorts and a V-neck top. Picking up my phone, I made my way out of the room towards the living room. I was starving. “Bella!” I called as I made my way to the dining. The place was unusually quiet, making me wonder what's been going on all morning. “Bella…” This time she came out of the kitchen,“You’re awake, ma’am Kira,” “Hm, get me something to eat,” I ordered as I sat on the dining chair, “Where is everybody?” I asked Bella before she could disappear into the Kitchen.“I
Kira's POVAfter lunch, I walked around the mansion, and Bella decided to join me. I haven’t really spent time doing this since Jones died. We used to do this on my request, we would take a stroll and talk and laugh. The man really had a way of making me feel wanted and loved except that I knew his plans, I knew what was driving him to do all that he was doing.“Ma’am Kira, can I ask you a question?” Bella finally spoke up. I knew she had something on her mind ever since I was eating,“What is it?” I asked.“It’s about the man you were with… sir Ashton”“Hm” I plucked one of the flowers and began to cut off the petals. “Sir Ashton kept speaking about how he wishes to end you, why do you keep letting them stay?” Her voice filled with concern and I smiled. “Good reasons, Bella. Good reasons” I answered. I saw the looks on her face when Ashton said those words to me. I am sure she was expecting me to bury a bullet in his head. I walked ahead of her, there were some people who were ma
Kira's POV. "Pouring your anger on a poor dummy wouldn't change the fact that our mate is out there, doing goddess knows what, we don't even know where he is, you hurt him Kira, you really hurt him and I'll not forgive you if anything happens to him!" Morana growled angrily at me and I punched the dummy harder, I needed to unwind."He's gonna be fine, he's a damn werewolf, nothing will happen to him, besides, he's his own man, just like I'm my own woman, stop annoying me!""You're so frustrating, Kira," Morana hissed. "He’s not just a werewolf...he’s our mate! Do you even understand what that means? It’s not just about you, it’s about us!"I rolled my eyes, punching the dummy with even more force. "I’m not having this conversation with you. Not now, not ever. He’s fine, Morana. Probably out there plotting his next move or finding someone else to annoy."Morana growled in frustration, her energy pulsing within me like an uncontrollable storm. "You’re heartless! You know he’s hurting,
Kira's POV. My eyes widened in shock as I stared at the magnificent wolf in front of me, "Our mate is a wolf Kira, can you believe this, he's a fucking werewolf!" Morana pounced excitedly in me but I was too mad to acknowledge her, too mad and surprised at the same time, her constant shrill voice in my head made me cuss, " Shut your trashy mouth Mo, I can clearly see he's a damn werewolf, do you have to scream my head down?!" I fired angrily, hot unwanted tears leaving my eyes and I wish I knew why those tears were falling from my eyes. The huge wolf before me stood tall, powerful, with sleek black fur that shimmered under the dim light. His piercing red eyes locked onto mine, and for a moment, the room seemed to shrink around us. It was Ashton. My supposed human bodyguard. My…mate.Morana let out a gleeful howl in my mind. "Our mate is perfect! Look at him! So strong, so..."“SHUT UP!” I screamed aloud, cutting her off. The sound echoed in the room, but Ashton didn’t flinch. He st
Kira's POV. Isabella leaped at me, her bloodlust thick and tangible in the air. Her massive form blurred as she closed the distance between us in an instant. I braced myself, Morana growling fiercely in my mind as she took control of our movements."She’ll regret this," Morana hissed, her voice dripping with rage.I ducked just as Isabella’s claws slashed through the space where my head had been a second earlier. The force of her attack sent a gust of wind past me, and I wasted no time retaliating. My claws extended as I swung upward, aiming for her exposed side.She let out a sharp yelp as my claws made contact, leaving a deep gash along her flank. Isabella’s wolf stumbled back but quickly recovered, her glowing eyes narrowing in fury."Is that all you’ve got?" I taunted in my mind and Morana growled, her massive form overwhelming Isabella's wolf who shifted back. Morana’s dominance surged through me as she fully took over. Her fury was high, a tempest roaring inside both of us. Is
Kira's POV. "You can call Ashton to come help you with your training, you know." Mo suggested but I just rolled my eyes as I constantly kicked the dummy in front of me. I don't need Ashton, I can train by myself. "He's the only one strong enough to stand against you and you know that, the rest always give up, run away or end up passing out." She whined and I sighed."The last time Ashton came to this place, he used a gun to fuck me, it was a crazy experience, I need my focus and not some distractions!" I snapped at her and my face heated up at the thought of Ashton's last visit to the training room. It was impossible not to recall the smirk on his face as he teased me, completely unbothered by the chaos we created. My face flushed as the memory replayed itself in my mind.“Exactly,” Morana teased. “And wasn’t that just the kind of ‘training’ you needed? Maybe he can remind you how to relax and focus at the same time.”“Shut up, Mo,” I growled, delivering a hard kick to the dummy tha
Kira's POV. "Ma'am, Isabella is in the building, what should I do about it, should I send her back home?" Jonas asked as we headed to the meeting room but I just waved him away. I'm more interested in the meeting at hand, meeting with all the mafia Lords under me, I don't know the sudden reason why they'd called for a meeting but I'm pretty sure it was important. "Just let her play her game, I want to see what she's up to this time around, I'm intrigued by her attacks, let's see what she plans to do again this time." Jonas hesitated for a moment before nodding, clearly unsure of how to handle my casual indifference toward Isabella’s antics. "Understood, ma’am. I’ll keep an eye on her.""Good," I muttered, brushing past him as I stepped into the grand meeting room. The air was thick with tension, the kind that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. All the mafia lords were already seated, their expressions ranging from guarded to openly hostile. Something was definitely
Kira's POV. Ashton’s question hung in the air, thick with tension. His intense gaze bore into me, and for a moment, I faltered. Fear wasn’t something I was willing to admit, not to him or anyone.I turned on my heel, determined to leave, but before I could take another step again, his hand shot out, grabbing my wrist and spinning me around. His strength caught me off guard, and in one swift motion, he pushed me back onto the bed.“What the hell, Ashton?!” I snarled, struggling to push him off me. But my strength felt like it had vanished, my body betraying me in a way I couldn’t comprehend. That damn wolf was responsible for this, I just know it deep in my guts! “Stop fighting me, Kira,” he said softly, his voice carrying an edge of command. His hands pinned mine above my head as he hovered over me, his face mere inches from mine. “For once, just stop.”The anger bubbling inside me collided with a strange, unwelcome vulnerability. I glared up at him, my chest heaving with frustratio
Kira's POV. "KIRA!" A familiar masculine voice shouted my name and I creased my brow as I looked at the entrance of the secret underground room in my room.That was definitely Ashton, what was he doing in my room? "Kira, where are you?!” he asked and I let out a loud sigh before heading to the exit, this had better be important.The door to the underground room creaked as I pushed it open. Ashton stood in the middle of my bedroom, his chest heaving, sweat dripping down his face, and a wild look in his eyes. He turned sharply as the door opened, and relief washed over his features the moment he saw me.“There you are!” he barked, striding toward me with such intensity that I instinctively stepped back.“What is it, Ashton?” I asked, trying to keep my voice neutral despite the unease creeping up my spine.His hands shot out, gripping my shoulders as he scanned me from head to toe, his gaze sharp and frantic. “Did you eat anything recently? Anything Isabella gave you?”I frowned, shrug
Ashton's POV. I stared at the angry woman pacing around the room in anger and I wanted to do something, anything but I don't know what to do cause I was torn between her and Kira. Isabella is my fiancee and Kira... That woman... I don't even know what to say or do. Kira had been asking me questions about how I got so powerful to command powerful men but I wasn't interested in discussing it with her. "This wasn't what we planned Ashton, you don't belong here, you came here to destroy your father's empire but you allow a mere woman to take over it and now you're bedding the woman, serving her like a queen, what the hell got into you?" My ever short tempered fiancee asked and I just stared at her, trying to figure out exactly how to reply to her questions. My engagement with her was just for mutual benefits but I do respect her because she's wise and powerful but I don't know why she was acting up because of Kira, she doesn't usually care about which girl I go out with, so this sudde
Kira's POV. "And what are you doing in my private office again, Isabella?" I questioned the suspicious looking woman going through my laptop and she snapped her head towards me, surprised but the expression was quickly replaced by another. "How did you get here?" She asked and I just chuckled, moving to my seat. "This is my office Isabella and stop being stupid, no matter what you do, you'll find nothing to implicate me, I'm the mafia boss so just deal with it and stop trying to make Ashton boss, he's very much okay with what he is." I stated and drew my phone out to make some calls. "This is his father's empire and I'll do everything I can to make sure he gets it. I don't know what you did to my man that made him so loyal to you but I swear, I'll get his empire back for him and I'll make sure you're ruined." Her voice was venomous and wanted to laugh. So much hatred. I love that. "You have guts girl but I'm the wrong person to mess up with, Ashton is your man so go deal with
