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
Author's POV. "That bitch! She's ruining everything, if those stupid rumors she's spreading keeps up, we'll lose a lot of allies, they think we'll betray them because we sold off our Luna, dammit!" Nicholas snarled angrily, flinging the tablet which shattered everywhere. "Calm your horses, they're just rumors, I don't know what Kira hopes to achieve with it but in the next few months, we won't be needing allies, we'll be immortals, we'll be like gods and everyone would bow to us, so I see no reason you should worry about mere rumors." Christopher, the ever calm one stated, his gaze firmly on the women magazine he was reading.He knew already that Kira wouldn't be able to do anything to them, her rumors about how they betray her, sold her off and some deep dirty deeds they've done in the past have surfed the internet and she wasn't stopping, he was mad and so were his brothers but there was nothing any of them can do, Kira can't be killed, they've tried many times and failed so they
Nicholas’s POVThe heavy scent of incense filled the air as I stepped into the lavish apartment. The walls were adorned with ancient tapestries depicting wolves, battles, and celestial bodies. The Shermans had made themselves at home, their presence a mix of eerie calm and unshakable authority.The elder Sherman, a gaunt man with silver hair and eyes like molten gold, sat cross-legged on an intricately woven rug. Beside him was his sister, a woman shrouded in black, her pale hands resting on a massive tome that radiated an unsettling energy.“Alpha Nicholas,” the elder greeted, his voice a deep rumble that seemed to vibrate through my chest. “You’ve come seeking answers, and perhaps...salvation?”I hesitated, my jaw tightening. “Kira. She’s growing stronger. Every attempt we’ve made to weaken her has failed. I need to know how to stop her.”The sister smiled faintly, her voice a melodic whisper. “Kira, your ex mate is not just strong, she is becoming...unstoppable. With each passing d
Nicholas's POV. "Daddy, are we really going to see mommy?" Trisha asked, her eyes filled with tears and I nodded with a forced smile. I don't have time for delay but the kids have become so slow, so sickly ever since we auctioned their mother off, all they wanted was their mommy. "Hurry up, William, where's Melvin?" I asked and he just shrugged, giving me a cold calculated look. I know he hates us but I don't care about the kids hate, once they serve their purpose, they're as good as gone. Not only was their constant sickness annoying, they're growing more powerful everyday though we don't allow them to know they're powerful. It will be disastrous if they do, if the three kids combine their powers, they'll be able to defeat us and go to their mommy but... Well, they don't know the kind of creature they are so we're safe. "Melvin, get your butt out of the game room right now, we don't have all night, we'll get the gift for your mommy once we're on our way." I tried to maintai
Kira's POV. "We were so close Ashton, so close!" I cried and dropped on the bed, my body quivering in anger, fear and the thought of failure cut deep into me. I wish things had been different."Calm down baby, you're eating yourself too deep, my love." Ashton tried to calm me down but I pushed him angrily away. I don't want his comfort, I want my children and I'd have gotten them had Nicolas not been discovered by his brothers, everything seemed to be falling apart! "Can you stop being a mean bitch for once?" He lashed out but I just ignored him."You are secretive, you never told me the reason you are going after the triplets was because of your kids until moments ago, what will happen to you if you let me into your life?" He asked and I could feel the anger in his voice but I chose to ignore it."Fucking tell me!"Ashton’s words sliced through the air, heavy with frustration and unspoken pain. I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms as I fought back the wave of emotion
Kira's POV"Ready to take Michael down, sweetheart?" Ashton asked, handing me one of my favorite daggers.I smirked, twirling the weapon between my fingers before leaning into him, brushing my lips against his. It was meant to be a brief kiss, a quick taste before we left for battle, but as I started to pull away, Ashton’s hand shot up, gripping the back of my neck.Before I could react, his mouth was on mine, hot and demanding. His tongue thrust into my mouth, teasing, dominating, playing tag with mine.A small gasp escaped me, not from shock but from the raw hunger he poured into the kiss. It was reckless, intoxicating, and completely distracting...exactly what he wanted.Annoyed at his audacity, I smirked against his lips and, without hesitation, brought the dagger to his throat, pressing the cold steel against his skin.He froze, his grip on me loosening just slightly as his golden eyes darkened with amusement."You crazy fucker," I muttered, my lips brushing against his as I pull
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
