LUNA AMANDA’S POVThe bar wasn’t a safe place to get indulged in anything with Cillian. Anyone could walk in and see us and it was going to be catastrophic so I quickly pulled away from the kiss he initiated and he looked confused as he stared at me. Then he took a few steps back from me and held his hands up. “I’m sorry. I should have known it would be a mistake. I’m just going to walk away like this never happened then” he began and I laughed.“I never said I regret it. I only stopped kissing you because anyone could walk in here and see us,” I said to him and he looked both surprised and relieved to hear that from me. He sighed and smiled brightly while displaying his teeth.“That’s a relief then. I thought you were beginning to have second thoughts” he replied and I shook my head.Then I looked down and the broken glasses were still scattered everywhere. I looked back at him and he was following my gaze too.“Aren’t you going to clear this mess like you said you would?” I asked h
YARA’S POVMorning came and I grunted tiredly in bed before I opened my eyes and turned to look at Alpha Denver over where he lay on the other side of the bed since I had a pillow wall mounted between us.It was the first time we were sharing a bed but I wasn’t bothered or nervous about it because of the pillows I arranged to stop him from getting naughty. I was way too focused on getting back at him for what he did to me in the elevator to let any anxiety about sharing a bed with him get to me.I noticed he wasn’t on the bed with me after looking and I sat up immediately while wondering where he could be. Then I quickly reached for the bedside clock to see what time it was and it was already past 10 am. My eyes bulged when I saw the time and I quickly got down from the bed.“Shit, shit, shit! I’m late” I kept on whispering under my breath as I rushed toward the bathroom to have my bath, not caring to know where alpha Denver was or what he was up to anymore.I got into the bathroom and
YARA’S POVThe preparation finally came to an end and I wore the dress Alpha Denver got for me. It was a sleeveless purple stoned dress and the silky material of the dress fell softly on my skin down to my toes. I had my hair curled into waves and it fell down my back busily with some strands resting on my chest to make the curvy neckline of the dress more obvious. I wore the pair of heels he got for me too as the last thing to do before I would be fully ready and one of Lydia’s assistants helped me up from the chair I sat on before the second assistant pulled a full-length mirror to stand before me and I looked at my reflection. I gasped because it was almost impossible to recognize who I was.I was completely different and it was almost convincing that I was just another version of myself from another universe or dimension. I took another look as I ran my hands delicately over my dress and a wide happy smile flashed on my face before I could think of it and that showed just how muc
ALPHA DENVER’S POVTo say I was furious would be an understatement. I felt so many stages of fear go through me the moment I saw the chandelier fall toward Yara and for a moment, it was like I couldn’t breathe because I couldn’t even imagine a life without her in it. I would have stood frozen on the stage too… but seeing her there, with so much fear on her face as she stared at the chandelier coming toward her, I knew I had to save her because I wasn’t ready to lose her. I couldn’t afford to lose the first person that made me feel wanted.Then I saw the person who caused it and the fury in me intensified. I had to know who was behind that attempt to kill her and as much as I wanted to stay with her and make sure she was okay, I also wanted to catch the culprit so badly and make him pay. So I ran after him and he went through the backdoor of the hotel kitchen.I didn’t quit and even though my lungs felt like they were about to burst through my ribs, I kept on going after him and soon,
ALPHA DENVER’S POVWe arrived at the hotel and I took her straight to the penthouse. She was still wordless… just the same way she was throughout the drive back to the hotel and I was getting even more worried about her.I sat her down on a couch in the living room before I got her a glass of water, hoping it would help her calm down and she caught my hand by the wrist just as I was about to walk away.“Where are you going?” she finally spoke when I looked at her and to say I was relieved would be an understatement. I was elated to know she was alright on hearing her say something.“To get you a glass of water baby,” I said to her and she turned my hand to look at the knuckles. She saw the dry blood on my hand like she was noticing it for the first time and she looked at me again.“Did you kill him?” she asked me and I knew she was referring to the masked man that tried to kill her.I swallowed before I spoke and I wondered what she would say with the answer I was going to give. I kne
YARA’S POVAlpha Denver woke up before I did the next day and just as he predicted, I was sore. The first pain shot through my legs when I tried to get down from the bed so I could have my bath and I groaned out loud in pain since it wasn’t expected. I heard his footsteps as he rushed into the room with worry in his eyes and I clutched the blanket tighter to my chest when I saw him because I was still naked and shy about what we did together the previous night.“Are you okay, Yara? I heard you yell from the living room and came to check on you” he asked as he knelt before me and I pushed my hair back before I nodded to let him know I was fine but he didn’t look like he was buying it. The uneasiness was evident on my face so I decided to just tell the truth to him. Bending my head to avoid his eyes as my face burned, I let it out.“I’m… I’m sore and it’s hard to get up on my own” I said and when he didn’t say anything, I looked back at him and he was smiling. I eyed him when I saw he l
YARA’S POVThe journey back to the pack was awkwardly silent between us and it was obvious that it was because of the shocking news he told me. Finding out that Luna Amanda was the one who wanted me dead because she knew about me and her alpha had sent chills through my body because now everyone was going to know. It wasn't going to be just between us any longer.Alpha Denver confronting her was going to cause a huge ruckus which was going to call for attention in the palace. Then everyone would find out what was the cause and I would be instantly branded as the witch that stole her alpha from her when he never even loved her from the start.None of us were perfect and we all had our flaws but nobody was going to care about that at all. They were only going to focus on the fact that I was having an affair with a married alpha when in fact, he killed my family in the first place. It was complicated since we all had our faults… but they hated me so it was all going to get pinned on me e
ALPHA DENVER’S POVI never saw that coming. I was so sure I was going to keep Yara protected at all costs after the incident the previous night happened but I never thought that I would have to be wary of her so-called sister that she had begged me to let her live just weeks ago too. The anger that brewed inside me was only fueled when I saw Allison stab Yara. I just stood still by the stairs, without being able to move and I stared in shock at what just happened before me.Then I heard Amanda laugh from behind me where she sat on the floor after Yara flipped her over and I turned my attention to her.She looked so entertained after seeing Yara getting stabbed and her eyes twinkled with only pure evil in them.“I guess I didn't have to hire a hitman to kill her then. Even her family hates her,” she jeered and the last thread that was holding me back snapped.Growling with pure rage, I rushed toward her and I watched her eyes grow with fear when she saw me storming for her. She began
