~KILLIAN“Calm down, Trina–”“Just answer my question,” she cut me off, striding over to my desk.“I’m treating her nicely because she’s pregnant.”My response didn't calm her at all. Her eyes flickered black, signaling her wolf was at the surface. I quickly realized why she was so angry and added, “It's not my child, it's someone else's.”The anger in her eyes lessened, but her tone still held some of it as she asked, “If they're not yours, why treat her nicely?”I pinched the space between my brows and sighed deeply. “To be honest, Trina, it hurts me that you don't trust me enough to treat people nicely without wanting something in return.”"Is that how low you think of me now? Did Martha fill your head with the idea that I treat her nicely because I sleep with her?" I asked calmly.She fell silent, the glare in her eyes losing intensity as she held my gaze.I stood from my seat and walked around the table to her. I pressed my lips to her forehead. “Goodnight, Katrina.”She held my
~KILLIANI screeched to a halt outside the pack's hospital, my heart racing with urgency as I rushed out of my car and sprinted towards the entrance, my phone already in hand to text Jared for Laura's room number. But before I could even hit the call button, his response popped up on my screen. My throat constricted as I saw the room number, and I quickened my pace towards the ICU.In a flash, I was standing outside Laura's door, my hand trembling as I pushed it open. My eyes scanned the room, locking onto Laura's still form in bed. I could tell she was asleep as her heartbeat was steady.But as I drew closer, my gaze fell on the strange reddish bruises marring her pearly skin. The thought of the pain she must have endured filled me with a rage so fierce, it felt like it would consume me whole making me growl involuntarily.As I gazed at her beautiful sleeping face, I noticed her tear-stained cheeks, she must have cried so much. My anger would only lessen if I snapped Jared's neck t
~SELENAFlickering my heavy eyelids open, I tried to adjust to the room's brightness. My mind and vision were blurry as I lay still on my side, subconsciously taking in my surroundings.Gradually stirring into consciousness, I absentmindedly watched the moving lines on the heart monitor while the soft hiss of the oxygen tank filtered into my ears. It soon dawned on me that I was in one of the pack's hospital rooms.Instinctively, I reached for my stomach, cradling it as my mind reeled back to the strange, excruciating pain that had suddenly attacked me. It had coursed stabbing pains all over my body, knocking the breath out of my lungs with such force that I never thought I would see the light of another day.The pain was strange and familiar at the same time.I closed my eyes, trying to shut out the thoughts. I didn't want to ponder it, as I wasn't ready to deal with the pounding headache that usually came when I tried to recall something about my past.Although I was curious to know
~SELENA I looked around me, staring at the stars sitting in the parm and thinking about what bricked my heart when I had first seen Killian.A whimper plowed inside of me, and here I am feeling something I can't explain. I think it's called affection, or what better word could I describe it as.As I walked down the crowded street, lost in my own thoughts, I felt a sudden poke in my back. Startled, I turned around to find a little boy with innocent eyes staring up at me."Are you alright, miss?" He asked, his voice soft and concerned.I nodded, still feeling a bit shaken. "Yes, I'm fine. Thank you," I replied, offering him a small smile.Curiously, he pointed towards the wall I had been staring at moments before. I followed his gaze and realized with a jolt that everything I had just seen was merely a figment of my imagination. "Selena!" someone exclaimed, and I felt a chill run down my spine as I turned to see an evil looking man walking angrily toward me. He had the look of death e
~SELENA I woke up from the dream. I thought it was real. Thank you, moon goddess. It wasn't real. How could I have handled myself with all I had been through? Life truly seems to have different levels of pranks waiting for me at every stage of my sojourn.Feeling a little pain in my body, I got up and sat upright on the bed. I waited patiently for the doctor to come in and let me know if I was ready for discharge. As I waited something didn't seem right. I could sense it within me, even my wolf felt uneasy, ruffling me from within, as though a prompt to act quickly. “Quickly I must act, but on what exactly,” I thought in resonance with my innate resolutions. I could hear my wolf screaming within, “Call Killian, call Killian.” Why should I call him, he should be here by my side, I have never had a fair treatment in his pack. It's always better when I'm here in the hospital, at least Killian treats me with dignity here and has the time to show some concern toward me.Where are the
~ KATRINA Enraged, I stepped out of Killian's house and into my car. I drove as fast as I could, as I needed to get this done and done with.How could all my efforts after these years be put on a scale of nothingness, and my love flung as the shadows of yesterday? Killian and I had known each other since we were teenagers and our parents had brought us together as their friendship crossed over to our love for each other. I'd dreamed of being his Luna and Killian being my alpha and we could take down territories as our bloodline was pristine.But this is what happens when you're planning with an idiot, no, a fool, a big one at that. Did he forget the promises he made to me? Where did I get it wrong, I've been the perfect woman, from the best family and with the right dose of pride and pump to fit an Alpha.“What does she have that I lack,” I questioned internally, thinking about what to do next.“Yes, I'd break her legs and sever her head. Let me see if the moon goddess and Killian's
~ KILLIAN “Katrina, what's all this? Let me be.” I moved her off my lap and headed for the garden.Katrina was adamant, standing aloof and chewing the bubble gum in her mouth with reckless abandon. That's one thing I had asked her to stop but she seemed to derive a special joy in doing things I hate.“How could you do such a thing to me? How could you have the guts to take in another as a mate, even having sex with her?”I paid no attention to her words or tantrums. My father had told me never to spill my energy in rancor with a woman, that it wasn't the way of an alpha but that of omegas. “Killian, no matter what you do, I am not leaving you. I am here for good. I'm no trash who you'd use and discard at will. Keep this in your memories.”She looked straight into my eyes as she moved to block the doorway, preventing me from moving further. I know her tricks, I'm used to it. She's trying to lure me in for sex because this was what made us stay together. A little fight, some argument
~ KILLIAN Pulling the door open, I stepped into the room. Oh my, look what stands before me. Laura stood naked in front of me and my breath seized. I tried to close my mouth but it was salivating for the meal before me. My wolf leaped for joy at the sight of Laura. Laura was in fact a goddess to behold, her body a sculpture of fine Greek artistry. She quickly tried to pull some clothes off the bed and unto herself but I stretched my hands out, signaling her to stop. With what I saw and what I felt, I didn't mind if we had sex all night and day.I asked her, “Do you know I initially let you come with me for one reason, and that alone?” With one finger, I pointed to my manhood and said, “You are to satisfy this. You have no other job here. Only this, is that understood?”She nodded in agreement. I settled on the bed and pulled her down to the bed and took her left breast fully into my mouth. She stretched out her two hands reaching for my neck as she screamed in pleasure.I was quick
