AWAY.
Kyra.
“Very well then .” He said then turning to Rosa in a slow prideful kind of way,he asked
“Has she been prepared to come with me ?’
“certainly.” Rosa replied almost immediately there was a kind of sadness in her eyes as she looked at me and held my hands gently.
“You'll be going with him darling.”She said
“I… I don't understand.” I stammered my voice barely more than a whisper .”Going with him to where?” I asked.
The loosk from him and Rosa made me realized that my question was stupid
“To his Pack , Bloodshadow Pack.” Rosa answered
Normal me would have protested, stamped my feet on the floor and throw tantrums, but I don't know what was happening ,as if a spell had been cast on me.
I couldn't do anything just staring at him .
My heart kept on pounding I couldn't understand what was going on .
I wanted to go back to sleep, go back to the dream and wake up on my own and realize today was Monday and that I was having a chemistry test which I didn't prepare for because I had gone partying during the weekend.
He took a step closer his gaze never leaving me as he reached out to gently brush a strand of stray hair away from my face, he youchy was like fire yet so cold ,sending a lot of electricity and a kind of comfort which I couldn't explain running through me.
“You are mine now Kyra.” He said softly, his tone sending shivers than my spine.
His voice was so cool and sexy I wanted to hug him .
I felt a lump form in my throat, knot tighten in the pit of my stomach
The weight of his declaration pressing down on me like a rock, I knew then that there was no going back.
I wonder deep within me what kind of 18th birthday was this ?
Every other girl's eighteenth birthday was full of fun and happiness ,but here I was standing with a stranger -my mate paying off a debt.
It was as if I was trapped in a romance novel or maybe in Harry Potter and I couldn't wait to wake up
“You will celebrate your 18th birthday at the Bloodshadow Pack.” He said.
That was when I resigned to fate
He turned to Rosa .
“We should go now.” He said his tone gentle but firm as he took my hand in his leading me outside now the rain has stopped making the Earth wet
I followed him obediently my mind swelling with questions
Outside the glistening sun shone on the pavement an evidence that it had rained, the first rays of sunlight broke into the clouds and I blink in the sudden brightness my eyes adjusting to the scene before me
My throat felt so dry all of a sudden, I couldn't believe what was before me .
Expensive cars lined the driveway their sleek exterior gleaming in the morning light
They all stood waiting for him,the guards in charcoal black expensive suits and pretty ladies in waiting
I couldn't understand it all, my mate ,The Alpha was a freaking billionaire, we couldn't even come close to him.
We were paupers before him.
This was the man my mother owed
He turned to look at me, his gaze kind of soft as he took in my tear streaming face.
“Why are you crying?”He asked quite rudely and watching me anger danced in his eyes.
“Better don't annoy me before all these people present. “
He said and I looked at him like how a baby would.
“Remember you are fulfilling a debt owed to me by your Mother.”He whispered
My throat felt dry as I nodded hard in understanding.
Then he took my hand again and let me into one of the waiting cars.
“There was so much to discuss and times of the essence.” He said to me.
Then he stopped. “You can say your final goodbyes now and be fast about it.”
I turned to look at Rosa and find out she was also crying.
My chest tightened. I look around me once again at the mansion I grew up in at the memories I was leaving behind.
It was all too much for me I wished Mom was here,I wished Dad hadn't died when I was 10.
I wish I was just like every normal girl but no I was different ,I could have known that I wasn't, my life wasn't mine to live my life, just a debt waiting for the owner to and claim.
I ran Rosa and gave her one final last hug.
“Be a good girl.”She said “I will come visiting whenever I can.”
“That's enough.” He barked an order
I nodded ,with slow shaking legs I got to him and entered the car.
As I tore my gaze away from the only home I haf known, I couldn't shake the feeling that this was just the beginning of a point that could change my life forever
I was going with him far away from WhiteMoon Pack to an unknown Pack with a stranger,with nobody to coming with me. I felt so small all of a sudden.
I knew I was going to see something bigger than me in the hands of this handsome stranger, this perfect devil.
He didn't bother to glance at me ,to look at my tear stricken face as tears rolling down like they owned my face ,ruining my makeup and making my face the colour of tomato paste
He looked away, out of the car as the fleet of other cars followed behind.
There was no announcement to my friends that I was leaving. They would come to school on Monday and find me gone.
My life was swirling around like a thread which a seamstress was in a haste to use.
I wish I could say no,to jump down out of the car.
That was when I wished for death
But what do I know? I was just eighteen,mated to this old hearted Alpha.
I was going to leave my whole life with this perfect devil.

THE ANTICIPATED CONFRONTATION.On the eve of the upcoming battle, Crestwood Pack was shrouded in a tense silence.

Their final discussions were filled with a mix of resolve and unease, both fully understanding the seriousness of the situation.In their dwelling, Kyra meticulously went over her schemes, verifying each aspect. Damon, sitting at the bed's edge, observed her with a blend of pride and worry. His typically serene and composed eyes showed a touch of discomfort."I've verified everything twice," Kyra stated, maintaining a steady voice despite the flurry of emotions inside her. "We are as ready as we possibly can be."Damon nodded, his eyes staying on her for a while. "Kyra, you have performed admirably." No matter what occurs in the coming day, keep in mind that we will confront it united. You have supported me through everything.Kyra locked ga
THE APPROACHING THREATThe mood in Crestwood Pack had started to calm down following the involvement in the Silverfurs Pack, yet the tranquility was fragile. Kyra and Damon thought their hard work would bring an end to their recent troubles, but the peace didn't last long. Speculations started spreading about a fresh danger that could endanger the recently achieved peace among the packs.While Kyra and Damon were discussing future collaborations between the packs late at night, a messenger brought them urgent news. The messenger appeared out of breath and clearly upset, which was very different from how calm the pack's messengers normally are."The gathering of rogues has begun," the messenger said, his voice shaking. "They have big plans." We are unsure of their intentions, but their population is growing, and they are gathering close to the borders.Kyra and Damon shared worried looks with each other. The presence of the rogue wolves had been a long-lasting danger, but the thought o

The recent events had stressed them out, making it more important for them to face their old demons.While adjusting to their new reality, Crestwood Pack faced a surprise visitor at their borders, delivering a message that would make Kyra and Damon deal with unresolved issues. The guest turned out to be a familiar face from the past - a member of the Silverfurs Pack, the same pack Kyra belonged to before being forced into a mating with Damon.The emissary, Roland, a man in his middle years, bore a serious demeanor and a burdened spirit. He had gained a reputation as a wise individual and had served as a trusted counselor to the Silverfurs Pack for an extended period of time. Kyra and Damon welcomed him with a combination of interest and unease.Roland started by offering his sympathies for the recent diff
THE BROKEN BONDS.Kyra and Damon's hard-won peace felt delicate, yet it appeared to endure as weeks passed by. The festivities recognizing their togetherness and the return of peace persisted, yet an unseen stress lingered. Kyra and Damon were acutely conscious that peace in their world was frequently fleeting, and they were constantly on alert.While focusing on building their partnerships and solidifying their domination, they started observing slight indications of dissatisfaction among a few of their allies. Whispered discussions and unusual actions suggested an underlying issue.While Kyra was busy in her study one afternoon, a messenger came with a formal request for a meeting from a prominent official of the neighboring Nightshade Pack. The unusual request came from the strained relations between the Nightshade Pack and their own, stemming from past conflicts.Kyra and Damon, intrigued about the reason for the visit, decided to meet with the messenger. The tall and serious-look
A SHORT PERIOD OF PEACE FOLLOWED BY FULL DANGER. Kyra and Damon successfully achieved a form of peace after months of focused effort on rebuilding and establishing stability. The collaboration of both parties had rejuvenated their groups and strengthened their partnerships. However, below the appearance of calmness, there were murmurs of dissatisfaction and concealed dangers.The kingdom seemed to be thriving, as the economy was bouncing back and the citizens were slowly recovering from the scars of history. Celebrations were organized to mark the newly established harmony, and the Crestwood Pack's halls echoed with happiness and merriment. Kyra and Damon felt like their worst days were over, yet they knew how delicate their peace was.During a night, Kyra and Damon received a disturbing message while going over their advisors' reports. It was an enigmatic message, with no signature and written quickly. The warning conveyed a concealed threat endangering their kingdom, suggesting tha
