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. 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. "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. I searched the weapon room for some of my weapons, I have no idea where I had kept them last, "Will you act fast, our mate is in danger!" Morana screamed angrily and I just sighed, I was confused and didn't even know what to do. Suddenly, the door swung open, "we're ready ma'am, we're waiting for you." Jonas informed me but I just nodded."Where are my favorite daggers and guns?"Jonas raised an eyebrow, his expression a mix of urgency and confusion. “You left them in the training room last week, ma’am. I’ll have someone fetch them if you’d like.”I let out a frustrated huff, my patience thinning. “Forget it. I’ll find them myself.” I brushed past Jonas, my focus solely on preparing for the mission.Morana was a storm in my mind, her growls and snarls relentless. “He doesn’t have time for your disorganization, Kira. Move faster!”“I’m moving, Morana! Stop pushing me!” I snapped back internally, clenching my fists as I stormed into the training room.There they were...my
Kira's POV."Can I tear them apart?" Kira pounced excitedly and there was anger in her too. "Calm down my love." I chuckled and began to move forward, my sword gleaming, halting, I looked at the men with weapons pointed at me and sigh softly."You idiots never learn not to mess with me, how many more examples do I have to make? How many will I have to kill?!" The men hesitated, their guns trembling slightly as they aimed at me. I could see the uncertainty in their eyes, the flicker of fear that even their bravado couldn’t mask. I took another step forward, dragging my sword along the ground, the sharp sound grating against the silence of the room."Drop your weapons," I ordered, my voice cold and commanding. "Unless you want to join the corpses outside."One of them sneered, his confidence faltering. "You're just one woman," he said, but his voice wavered. "We outnumber you."I let out a low, humorless laugh. "And yet, you're shaking." I pointed the bloodied tip of my sword at him.
Kira's POV. "Open the damn door or I'll break it down!" Ashton threatened as he banged at my door and I let out a loud sigh."I've told you Ashton, I don't want to talk to you, for goodness sake, I'm busy, go away, do something... Anything but being with me." I shouted, trying hard to keep my temper in check but he was making it so difficult, I don't want to talk to him but he won't have that. "I know you're mad at me for allowing myself to get taken like that but look on the brighter side mate, we're together, allowing me close to you, what are you so afraid of? Scared of loving me?"I rolled my eyes so hard it hurt. “Scared of loving you? Ashton, don’t flatter yourself. I’m not mad, I’m just busy, and frankly, you’re getting on my nerves.”The banging stopped momentarily, and for a second, I thought he’d finally listened and left. But then his voice came again, quieter but no less persistent. “You’re lying, Kira. You’re always pushing me away, but it’s not because you’re busy. You
Kira's POV. "Happy birthday my darlings." I mumbled, hugging the picture of my children tightly. My heart was heavy because with their growth in years, so do their powers, the blood moon is just few months away and I can't even touch the Triplet, I've tried all I could to get them but I failed miserably and the last time they kidnapped me shows just how weak I am. I don't know what to do... I feel so lost and... I don't like this. "You can ask Ashton for help, he's hiding his powers but if he joined forces with you, you'll have a chance against those monsters." Mo suggested and I just sighed, trying to think of other ways. "I don't want to involve him in such a deadly game, he might get hurt, I just need one weakness on their part and I'll work on it, let's hope the private investigator bring something useful this time around." I mumbled, checking the clock on my office desk, "he should be here any minute." "He won't get anything, it’s going to be the same old disappointment, Kir
Kira’s POV I paced my vast room, my whole body tensed as I waited for some news. I need good news, I've heard enough of bad news. "Good news," Jonas said, striding into the room, a triumphant gleam in his eye. "The spies you and Lord Ashton planted are working. We’ve intercepted some intel...seems the triplets are arguing among themselves. Your plan is destabilizing them.” My breath caught for a moment. “The spies…” I murmured, recalling Ashton’s insistence on planting two weeks ago. I hadn’t believed it would work. “What are they arguing about?” Jonas hesitated. “We’re still gathering details, but it’s clear they don’t fully trust each other anymore. The cracks are forming.” A flicker of hope ignited in my chest. I nodded, dismissing Jonas with a wave of my hand, and he left me to my thoughts. "You see, together with Ashton, you achieved something you haven't been able to achieve, only if you'll trust him fully." Mo said and I just shrugged and dropped on my bed. She's right an
Kira's POV"You seem ready for our first attack," Ashton remarked, his golden eyes glinting with amusement as he gestured toward the massive, shattered rock before us. The once-imposing boulder now lay in jagged pieces scattered across the training ground, steam rising from the cracks where my energy had split it apart.But his words did little to comfort me. Despite the destruction, despite his strong confidence in me, I still felt like I wasn’t ready. I clenched my fists, staring at the debris, my chest tight with frustration. "It’s not enough," I muttered. "Not yet."Ashton stepped closer, his gaze narrowing as he studied me. "Kira, you just turned a solid rock into rubble. What part of that isn’t enough?"I shook my head, taking a shaky breath. "This isn’t just about breaking rocks, Ashton. It’s about getting Trisha back. It’s about walking into Michael’s fortress and making sure nothing, absolutely nothing goes wrong. I can’t afford mistakes."He crossed his arms, his expression
Kira's POV. My inside boiled as I watched Micheal dragging the crying Trisha out of the car, my baby was looking so frail and she was crying for her brothers. It hurts that I had to separate her from her brothers but it was a necessary step to get all of them to me. It must be hard for them...hard for them to see the men who had once loved them changed drastically. I thought they loved us too, they used me and sold me off when they couldn't end me, and now, they are going to use them too.. It's sickening. "Your daughter is truly beautiful." Ashton mumbled and I blinked back the tears that were threatening to fall from my eyes."She's a diva though she's not at her best now, she's looking so sick, I wonder what their mentally challenged father had done to her..." I paused and allowed the tears threatening to consume me to fall, "I'll get my children back from them and I'll take pleasure in killing them, all of them, I'll make them pay for every pain they made me and my children to g
Kira's POV. "Where's Ashton?" I asked immediately as I stepped into the mansion and Bella gave me a wide smile which immediately hinted that there was something up. "He went out to get something, welcome Madame." She said with so much joy in her voice that it confirmed my suspicion that something was up. What's Ashton planning?The last time Bella behaved like this, Ashton planned a surprise dinner for me to celebrate our conquest over some empire so what are we celebrating tonight?"He brought a dress for you, should I help you change, it's so elephant and the first of its kind, there were so many tiny diamond cuts and it's...""Hold on, Bella," I interrupted, raising a hand to stop her excited rambling. "Ashton bought me a dress?" My voice dripped with suspicion as I studied her glowing face. She was practically bouncing on her toes."Yes, Madame! It’s stunning! I’ve never seen anything like it," Bella gushed, clasping her hands together. "He told me to make sure you were ready w
Kira's POV"Wake up Kira!" Mo's urgent voice penetrated my haze but I chose to ignore her. I will not let her ruin my sleep because of some shitty prank. "There's danger, you bitch!" She growled and I shifted on my bed, sharpening all my senses but I didn't sense any danger so I didn't bother to open my eyes. Dumb wolf. "There's no danger here, bitch!" I screamed internally but she growled louder. "Fuck you! You don't feel it because you are the fucking danger, get your ass up, your powers are acting up and I can barely hold it in anymore, if I let go, you'll burn down this mansion killing everyone, get your ass up and..."I snapped my eyes open and the lighting in the room nearly blinded me but I blinked rapidly and adjusted to the light."What the fuck is going on here?!" I asked in panic and Mo let out a strangled cry. She was in pain. "Get away from the mansion, go far away from here... Rush to the forest, anywhere... Anywhere you can unwind, there's too much power that's dor
Kira's POV"Don't look at me like that, I just happen to stumble over it here." I mumbled, not used to seeing him this angry."You don't go about..." He paused and before I could question him any further, he sped and gathered the pictures, snatching the ones in my hands too. "Are you crazy?!" I asked, my anger bubbling up and I stood to face him squarely."I'm sure that's no breaking news, quit digging into my past, it... It only hurts." He gritted his teeth and looking at him, I could see the pain in his eyes and I swallowed hard. Thinking about it now, I think it's high time I ask him about his family. I only know about his moronic late father, nothing about the mother. "He doesn't look like he's in the mood to talk about anything, are you seeing the hurt in his eyes?" Mo asked but I just stared at the man in front of me and my curiosity got the better of me. I want to know... For him. For me. There's basically nothing between us apart from him helping me with my revenge, fuckin
Kira's POV. A low groan escaped me before I fling the book in my hands away, the frustration in me was threatening to consume me and my rage was making my powers unstable. Yes. Powers. Over the past few days, I have developed some weird powers I can't even explain, I'm a fucking werewolf so how was I able to use magic? "Maybe you are a hybrid." Morana chuckled and I rolled my eyes as I grabbed another ancient book that contains information about supernatural creatures to have a look. Morana's powers seemed to be growing every second, not only can she shift into different wolves, she was doing things werewolves should not be doing and she seems happy about it while I get more confused cause no books have any details about what I was exhibiting, not even hybrids. "You should be happy, the more power you have, the more chances we have against those pieces of trash you call ex husbands, can't wait to kill them." Her voice was so thrilling as she painted bloody images in my mind."Yo
Kira's POV. The sharp slap of cold water against my face did little to calm the crazy storm inside me. I gripped the sink, staring at my reflection as droplets slid down my skin. My heart pounded loudly in my chest, so hard that I felt deep contracting pain. Ashton’s words rang in my ears."You can trust me."No. Trust made you weak. Trust led to betrayal. I’d built my empire on the ashes of broken promises and deep betrayal...I wasn’t about to hand someone else the keys to my soul. Again! I took a deep breath and straightened. By the time I opened the door, my mask was firmly in place. Ashton was lounging in a chair, twirling his glass in one hand, but his eyes sharpened the second he saw me."Feel better?" he asked, though his tone was clipped."Much." I plastered on a smile and headed for the door. "Come on. I’m starving.""I'm sorry if whatever I said hurt you, you don't have to be in a hurry, I'll wait for as long as I can. I'm willing to do that just for you." He said and I cl
Kira's POV. I sat at the edge of the bed, twirling my gun in my hand, the metallic glint catching the sunlight streaming through the windows. "When are those modafuckers gonna split up already?" I groaned, running a hand through my hair. The tension in my muscles coiled tighter with each passing second. "I'm getting bored."Ashton, seated across from me, lounged with this crazy calm, his long legs stretched out as he sipped his coffee. His lips quirked into a lazy grin. "Chill, baby," he drawled, the warmth in his golden eyes softening. "Those three damned triplets trust each other like they're welded together. But cracks don’t happen overnight." He set the mug down and leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. "The people we sent are doing their job. Let’s wait and see."I narrowed my eyes, biting the inside of my cheek. "We’ve waited long enough."Ashton stood, walked over, and took the gun from my hand, placing it gently on the desk. His touch was steady. "Kira, listen to
Kira's POV. The moment I stepped into the room, I kicked off my heels and peeled off my gown, letting it pool around my feet. The cool air kissed my skin as I moved toward the massive bathroom. The hum of the night—the blood, the fury, the triumph—clung to me like a second skin. I needed a long, scorching shower to wash away the remnants of that bastard's existence.I turned on the faucet, letting the water roar to life. Steam filled the room, wrapping around me like a warm embrace. As the heat rose, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror—bloodstained, victorious, untouchable."I feel good," Morana cackled in my head, her voice filled with savage glee.I smiled, unable to deny the mutual satisfaction. "We deserve this victory, Mo. Every damn second of it."Her growl was soft but approving. "We do. But you know what would make this bath even better?"I froze, sensing exactly where this was going."We should wait for Ash to come join us," she purred, her tone dripping with mischief
