Xander's POV

I took the stairs two at a time, making sure not to miss my step or anything. I wasn't exactly in a hurry but I would rather get to the dining before her. She had barely arrived and yet she was already giving ultimatums? I could already feel a storm brewing. Don't get me wrong, I loved my mother, but if there was something I didn't love, it was her overbearing attitude.

She had barely settled down, and the entire mansion was already getting lit up by her little tantrums. It would only be a matter of time before it would blow up into literal flames. Hopefully, this time would be different and she would tone down on her attitude and tactics.

I knew how she could be. Especially to Kieran.

My mind wandered back to when my mother arrived. Kieran had been so surprised. It was obvious nobody told her my mother was coming but it couldn't have been me. We weren't exactly on talking terms and I had thought Sabrina would have done that.

What I didn't expect was the instant vilen

    Kieran's POVI pressed my back against the door, the moment I shut it behind me. I'd slammed the door so loud it rattled in its hinges. I was sure the loud noise it had made could be heard throughout the halls and probably down at the dining room, but I wasn't sure I cared. My heart thundered in my chest and every effort at trying to calm it down failed. The more I tried not to think about it, the more the thoughts swarmed in my mind. Beads of sweat lined the top of my forehead, and I could feel its slimy residue snaking down my face. As it cascaded down, it mixed with the salty tears that slipped from my eyes. I was crying and I didn't even know. It must have been somewhere in between my escape from the dining room to my bedroom. My hand flew to my chest as if I could touch the pain I felt as I slid down the door. My heart raced almost as much as it hurt. I pressed my eyes shut as her words rang in my head again. I thought I had grown past the threshold of being affected by mere w

    Kieran's POV I couldn't believe my ears. No matter how hard I tried to convince myself that I hadn't just heard what I had, it still didn't work. But somehow, even after hearing it, and clearly too, I still refused to believe it. I couldn't. There was no way I could. Why would I in the first place? Because it didn't sound like her, at all. It didn't sound like Sabrina at all. Perhaps my mind was playing a trick on me. I'd been stressed, mentally especially, and it would be no surprise if it had gotten to the point where I was hearing things and making up scenarios in my head.That was probably what just happened. Because I knew Sabrina, and there was no way she would have said that. Right? The more I asked myself that question, the more anxiety swirled in the pit of my belly. I couldn't help but feel like I already knew the answer, but for some strange reason, I just couldn't bring myself to answer it. I pressed my eyes shut as I allowed the words to echo over and over in my head.

  • Scarred Luna    Moving On

    Kieran's POV My mind buzzed with a million thoughts. The moment I slammed the door to my bedroom shut, no, scratch that, my former bedroom, I fled. Walking the halls was something I actually didn't think about till I was in the hallway. What if someone saw me leaving? Yes, the mansion was pretty big but I wasn't that daft to expect that everywhere would be free for me, just so I could waltz through. What if I bumped into someone? Or worse, what if I bumped into Xander? My heart did a little somersault at the sound of his name. The mere thought of him was more than enough to procure emotions that were beyond me.Without any warning, flashbacks of the last half hour replayed itself in my head. Before I dashed out, one thing I had done, although unwillingly, was to glance at all of their faces. Xander's mother had this haughty look, like she was proud of Sabrina and how things had turned out. I'm sure if we were still in preschool, she would have gladly given her a golden medal of some

  • Scarred Luna    The Visit

    Kieran's POVA small sigh slid past my lips as I smoothed the invisible creases on my dress. I stood in front of the cracked mirror as I took in my reflection, and I could swear I saw a teeny tiny stain just at the hem of my dress. As carefully as I could, I put the mirror back from where I'd pulled it out from, before wrapping my apron around my waist. Once I was done with that, I snuck one last glance at my room before heading out and locking the door behind me. My room. I had my own space now. A small smile made its way to my face as I walked down the stairs. The closer I got, the louder the noises from the diner reached my ears. It was almost opening time, and everyone was on the verge of going mad trying to make sure everything was ready before the stipulated time. Everyone except me, that is. When Mrs Eliza had introduced me to her friend, I never asked the type of job I was going to be given, until I found out myself. I was put on kitchen duty. I made my way to the kitche

  • Scarred Luna    The Argument

    Xander's POV The room was quiet, so silent that the only thing I could hear was the sound of my own organs, each one doing what it's supposed to. Blood raced up my ears, accompanied by the sound of my heart thudding erratically in my chest. No matter how hard I tried to calm it down, it just didn't budge. At this rate,I wouldn't be surprised if my heart jumped right out of my chest and onto the plate in front of me. That way, maybe I would have a valid reason to leave this plate empty. The cold feel of the fork pressed into my skin and despite the fact that my hand had been hovering over breakfast for a while now, I didn't feel any form of pain. I wouldn't be exaggerating if I said I wasn't feeling anything at all. My breakfast had gone cold, and yet, my stomach hadn't growled to complain about not stuffing my gut with food. I pressed my eyes shut, but what was that going to do? Nothing was going to change, until I addressed the elephant in the room. And by that, I meant the millio

  • Scarred Luna    Drinking Problems

    Xander's POV The silence that followed after was deafening to say the least, and I wasn't exactly sure how I felt about that. Judging from the fact that I had just blurted out a fragile piece of information, despite knowing the consequences, I kind of saw it coming. If I was being honest, I was tired and fed up with keeping it all to myself. It was torture, keeping the one thing I wanted literally everyone to know. I had been searching for my mate for years. At one point, I even gave up, and now that I had found her, I had to keep quiet about it. Why? I did it because of Kieran. Kieran. A tiny pinch made its way to my heart. Even since Kieran left, the vital organ had been cracking bit by bit and it made me wonder just how much more damage it could take. She had made me promise her that I wasn't going to tell a soul, and yet, I had just blurted it out to Sabrina, and probably my mother, if she was anywhere near here that is. I snapped out of my thoughts, before staring at the wom

  • Scarred Luna    Sabrina's POV

    Sabrina's POV It wasn't a prank. Neither was it some kind of teasing. It definitely wasn't a sick joke, and even if it was, a part of me couldn't help but feel like it was taking too long for him to come clean. Wasn't it high time Xander appeared at the door to my room, with a sheepish grin on his face that he was sorry and didn't mean any of the things he'd said the other day. I had been expecting the knock that would change everything, but it never came, and it had been three days already. Three fucking days. Fuck. A frustrated groan slid past my lips. I was beyond frustrated at this point. In fact, I was this close to running out of my mind. If something wasn't done soon… no, scratch that. If Xander didn't act right or try to apologize to me anytime soon, then I had no idea what was going to happen next. Call me crazy or dramatic, whatever you like, but if I spent the next hour without Xander paying me any mind, I just might pass out. I had spent the nights that followed that

  • Scarred Luna    Mind Games

    Xander's POV I flipped through the pages of the documents in front of me and it still didn't make any sense. I tried peering at it even more, but a frustrated groan slid past my lips at my failed attempt. I'd been on the same page for the past thirty minutes now, and still, I couldn't bring myself to concentrate. What the fuck was wrong with me today? Deep down, I knew what was wrong, I really did. I was in denial but I refused to admit it. I allowed my eyes to roam over the document again. In the space of an hour, I had divided all the papers embedded in it, into different sections, and by different sections, I basically meant just scattering the papers all around my table. I was tired. I needed to clear my head. It seemed like such an easy task, and it usually is, until she popped up. No matter how hard I tried, she always had a way of showing up in my mind, her huge grin and shy smiles, she managed to torture each and every part of my soul. I knew I had wronged her, but why

    “Mother, for the umpteenth time, she is my mate! Isn't that what you've always wanted?” I asked her as I pinched the bridge of my nose in frustration. “It's impossible that the moon goddess would send such riffraff your way after waiting for so long. She's a witch!” She argued and my jaw ticked in response. “I am not having this conversation with you any longer. She is my mate and you will respect that, mother.” I said. I was beginning to lose control and my wolf was tearing at the surface. She took a stubborn step forward. “And I am your mother, you will respect that. I know when something is not right for you. Sabrina is so perfect and she even proposed to you! Accept it.” she said. A growl slipped from me and she took a solid step backwards. “Kieran is my mate, not a witch or anything of the sort. She is my mate and the future Luna of this pack. I don't want to hear any other thing” I said as I glanced at the door. Her lips parted in shock. “Are you sending me out?” She as

    How dare she? I had never felt this level of anger towards her before, I never even thought I would see the day.It took the grace of the moon goddess herself to stop me from having her head. We were close. Yes. But even she knew the gravity of what she did. Interrupting my announcement? I almost lost my shit but I somehow managed to control it. And then she goes ahead to what? Propose to me? I could feel the tension coming off Kieran in waves. I knew how everything must have made her feel and the thought of her even feeling any negative thing pissed me off even more. No matter what, I was going to make sure the pack gave her the respect she deserved. We stayed a little longer before I decided it was time for us to leave. I leaned closer to her and told her we should leave. The relief that flood her face made something shift in my chest. The fact that she felt so uncomfortable where she was supposed to be the most comfortable. It was her goddess given duty to be the Luna of the pa

  • Scarred Luna    The Announcement

    Kieran's POVMy entire body shook with rage. I rarely ever lost my temper, I could safely say that I have never felt this type of anger. The closest thing I have ever felt to this was the way I felt when Lucas killed everyone I ever loved. But still, that anger was different, it stemmed from pain. This one stemmed from irritation and envy. I hated the feeling so much. But still, somewhere deep down, there was that constant fear. Fear that he would actually accept her and leave me cold and alone. Just like magic, that thought alone sent chills down my spine and I fought the urge to shiver. When Sabrina boldly interrupted Xander at the risk of her neck, I did not know what to expect. I knew it would be something crazy but I definitely did not see this level of crazy coming.I looked around and my heart ached as I watched everyone happily clapping, with sounds of support. I was never going to win with these people. They wanted her, not me. And even if I had a chance, she quite literall

  • Scarred Luna    The Proposal

    Sabrina's POV I've been called a lot of things growing up. Nice, kind, beautiful, caring, rude, even sly. I have never tried to dispute or prove them wrong, because at one point, it was only obvious that I would prove someone's fears and conclusions right, but that wasn't even what I was trying to say. The point was the fact that, no matter how much they tried, no one could exactly say I was a coward. I was never against putting up a fight when the need be and when push came to shove, I always came out victorious. It was a given for me. I don't lose. Even if I felt a little defeated, all I needed was the tiniest push, and I would be back on track again. Just like the push Alice had given me.We didn't really see eye to eye, I avoided her as much as I could, but tonight, she has definitely helped the flames of our friendship burn brighter. I blinked out of my thoughts, just to take a good look at my surroundings. The crowd was silent now, and I felt each and every one of their eye

  • Scarred Luna    The Ball

    Kieran's POV Breathe Kieran, breathe. I tried to calm myself and loosen my airway. But it wasn't working. I couldn't breathe. No matter how hard I tried, I struggled. My palms felt clammy and I felt hot all over. Were my clothes too tight? Was it just me or was it hot in here? I suddenly felt like the fabric of my dress had become three times heavier. If that were true, then it would make sense why I was suddenly feeling so heavy and on the verge of passing out. Breathe. I chanted the word in my head over and over again, but one look at the crowd was all it took to take away the little relief I had managed to get a hold of. A million and one eyes stared at me, each one of them judging, their mouths whispering. It was easy to tell what they were thinking though, they all wanted to know who I was. Who was this “Luna”? I wasn't royalty myself, but I had served under them long enough to know how they functioned. At functions like this, the only reason why they were so eager to fi

  • Scarred Luna    Blinding Rage

    Sabrina's POVThe sound of my heels clicking against the floors was faint, but it didn't exactly matter. The steady hum of loud music that was coming from the live band was all the sound I needed to hear. Not only was it melodious, it signaled the fact that what I had been looking up to for quite the longest time, was going to be coming into fruition today, and I couldn't wait. I was so excited, it made me wonder how I hadn't burst into my mini victory dance yet. As I walked, I caught a fleeting glance of myself on a glass surface and I couldn't help the huge smile that made its way to my lips. I was clad in a silver dress that hugged my torso firmly, before flowing down from my waist and settling on the tip of my toes. My heels elevated me a bit, giving the dress a kind of floating effect. The dress' edges were hemmed with a white flowery lace that matched the flower pastels scattered around my dress. To top it all off, the dress had a flattering neckline that left nothing to the i

  • Scarred Luna    Alpha and Luna

    Kieran’s POV I wriggled in my seat as the brush swept around my cheeks. The up down movement of the brush sent tickles spreading throughout my face, but I fought the urge to laugh out loud. If I did, I was sure I was going to ruin all of the artists' entire three hours of work, and if that happened, there was no way she was going to be pleased with it. Of course, she wouldn't dare voice it out, because she was there under the command of Xander, her King. But still, there was no way I would feel good after ruining it all, even if it was a little smudge. That and the fact that if I shifted too much, she was going to have to start all over again and I definitely didn't have the patience to sit here for three more hours. I wrung my fingers together, trying desperately to ignore the knots tying and unfurling in the pit of my stomach. No matter what I did or how many breathing exercises I did, it did nothing to help. Instead, the more I tried, the more my anxiety levels went up the roof.

  • Scarred Luna    A Warning

    Xander's POV She had to be joking. I was currently in front of my mother's study in the palace and she quite literally just closed the door in my face and told me to wait until she was done with the person inside. In her free time, she liked to tend to the personal problems of the people. As demeaning or rude she seemed, she was a big problem solver. But right now, I didn't care about any of that. I clenched my jaw in frustration. If it were just any other person, I would have their head. But it was my mother. I breathed to steady myself. Relax, Xander. A few maids passed, busy with the preparations. They stopped to greet me, snapping me out of my calming session, before they went about their day. It made me wonder the kind of thoughts that must have run through their minds. They would think their King was mad, especially since I was muttering to myself. Shit. I let out an exasperated breath, before pinching the bridge of my nose. I glanced at the door in front of me. It was a hug

  • Scarred Luna    Question Answered

    Kieran's POV“Is that what you thought we were? Why would you ever think that?!” she asked and I was so lost. All those months… that wasn't friendship?“But-”“We're not friends, Kieran.” She cut me off yet again. “Never were, and never will be. You were helpless and I stepped in. I gave you food, shelter and everything you ever needed, and what did I get? You try to steal Xander from me?” She said and I was taken aback. “I didn't steal him. He was never yours!” I exclaimed and she raised her hand to slap me but I swatted it sway. She looked surprised. “If you hated me in the first place, why did you take me in?” I asked and she huffed. Her face was so red by now, I thought she was going to burst. “Because I didn't think you would overstay your welcome. Do you not have any shame?!” she said and I felt so offended. “You told me I could stay. Every single time I wanted to leave, you wanted me to stay” I said, confusion clouding my features. I thought mere words couldn't hurt me an
