CHAPTER FOUR

KIERA'S POV

It's been a while since the incident earlier happened. I am now here at the coffee shop where Aunt Sheena and I decided to meet.

I've been waiting for almost 2 hours here currently.

Why is she taking so long to come back?

I was in the middle of daydreaming when I heard the sound of the wind chimes. I don't know but it feels like something is urging me to look so I automatically turned my head to the location of the door. There, I saw the most gorgeous-looking man I had ever seen. There is something that is pulling me to stare at him.

He is wearing a hoodie and simple jeans yet he looks so stunning. Is this city full of gorgeous-looking people? I don't know if I am hallucinating or if he is really looking in my direction too.

He just went straight to the barista and ordered something.

"Hi, can I sit here with you? " I only stopped staring at the guy at the counter when some girl who was wearing nerdy glasses talked beside me.

"Yes, sure no problem " I answered while gesturing my hand for her to sit down.

"Are you new here? " She asked then took a sip from her coffee.

"How did you know? You are the second one who asked me that question. "

I asked looking a little puzzled. Are they mind readers? I almost laughed at the thought of it because that's impossible.

"Oh, it's the way you dress is so different from the locals out there" she answered then chuckled. She looks so nice and approachable.

"What do you mean? Does my outfit look bad? " I asked and looked at my crop top with denim jacket and denim shorts.

" No, That's not what I meant to say. " She said while shaking her head.

" You looked good, your outfit just looked a little revealing and more modern than the locals here" she added then pointed to the people outside.

I looked around automatically and saw what she meant. Their clothing is different from mine. They looked a little conservative and a little out of trend in my opinion.

"You are right, Do you think I should change my way of clothing to fit in here? " I asked then smiled at her.

"No, No you look good the way you are right now, you look unique and fashionable " she answered.

"Do you want to be friends? " she asked out of nowhere and extended her hand to shake hands.

" I am Fiona " she added while smiling ear to ear.

"I'm Kiera, nice to meet you. " I answered as I shook her hands.

"We are friends now Kiera don't forget, see you soon. I need to go to class now I will be late in a few minutes," she said laughing then left.

What a weird girl, but she seems nice.

Seconds after Fiona left I felt the pain in my head again.

"Arrggg," I said as the pain got stronger. It was worse than the first time. I tried to stand up to look for Aunt Sheena but when I did I just fell and everything went black.

Hendrix's Point of View

I followed the girl in the coffee shop to check her if she was fine. I saw her sitting alone in the corner. When I looked at her I noticed that she was looking at me too. I know I'm gorgeous no need to make it obvious.

"One americano " I ordered at the counter.

After that, I sat down. I chose a table a little far from her. I have super senses so I can still see her or even hear her even in my location now.

My forehead creased when I saw Fiona sitting at the same table with her.

What is she doing?

I am just staring at them while they are chatting.

Fiona left and after a few seconds, I saw the girl holding her head and looked like he was in a lot of pain.

I immediately stood up to go to her. My timing is perfect because she passed out. Glad that I caught her before she fell.

I carried her outside when I saw Sheena.

"Alpha, what happened? " she asked when she saw me.

"She fainted while holding her head. " I answered as I put her in their car seat.

"Do you think we need to bring her to the hospital? " I added.

" No, Alpha I can take care of her she just needs to drink her medicine at home. "

"Okay, make sure she will be fine. "

"We will go now Alpha "

"Sure go ahead take care of her," I answered then she drove.

Kieras's Point of View

The ceiling of my room greeted me when I opened my eyes. How did I end up here?

"Hey Kiera, how are you now? Are you feeling better now? " Aunt Sheena asked. She was sitting beside my bed.

" Yes Aunt, what happened? How did I end up here? We are at downtown right?" I asked little confused.

"You passed out earlier, don't you remember? " she asked.

She's right, I just remembered that my head ached all of a sudden then I don't remember anything anymore.

"Why do I don't see any bruises and wounds on me? If what I remember is right, I fainted while standing. "

"Someone helped you, maybe he caught you? " Aunt replied.

"Oh, I see glad that someone does. "I said like talking to myself.

"Aunt Sheena I'm ok now, you don't need to look after me. Sorry for troubling you. " I added with a genuine smile.

"No worries Kiera, your mom trusted me to look after you so I should do my best. Drink your medicine but eat first, your food is there. Rest after you eat ok? "

She said then pointed to the small table in my room and I saw a lot of food with cover.

"Yes, Thanks Auntie. " I answered before she left.

I stood up to eat dinner and to drink my medicine because my head was still hurting a little.

It's 7:30 in the evening and I am not sleepy yet, maybe because I just woke up a few minutes ago.

It's still early so I decided to go outside to unwind and to walk a little to digest what I ate.

I was walking for like 3 minutes when I noticed that someone was tailing me. I'm not sure if it was only 1 person because it seems that there was like 2 to 3 presence that I was sensing.

If what I think is right thats a bad news, because I'm still weak now because of the medicine. The medicine has side effects that make me lightheaded and drowsy.

I grabbed my necklace to get ready. I pressed the button to make it a dagger so that I could use it when someone attacked me.

"Hey Miss, Come with us if you don't want to get hurt. " A man popped up in front of me. "

Wow, a not-so-good-looking man finally appeared. There I was who thought all of the guys here were handsome. I almost laughed at what I was thinking.

"What do you need? " I calmly said while looking at his ugly face.

"We do not have any business with you, but our boss has. " the other guy from the back said ,so I'm right he is not alone.

"Who is your boss? " i said with my creased eyebrow.

"You don't have to know miss" He said then tried to grab my hand but I immediately move so he stumbled.

The other guy from the back tried to catch me so I kicked him in his stomach .

"Weaklings." I said because they were both lying on the ground now.

I thought they were strong but I guess not. I was about to go to head home ,when I felt something hit my head then everything gets blurry.

Oh no not again.

It's not too far but not too close.I closed my eyes to focus on my surroundings, and then a few seconds passed when I picked up her scent. It's in the southern part of the city."Perfect time for an exercise " I mumbled. At the same time, my fangs came out and my nails grew.I run fast to the location where the smell is coming from.

    Kiera's Point of View"What are you doing here? " I asked the man who is now sitting on the couch. "Dad gave me a mission. " He answered. "What kind of mission will you need to do here? " I replied as I sat down to the chair across from him. "Maybe to look for my little sister? Hahaha," He answered then chuckled. This brother of mine is such a joker, you cannot even seriously talk to him sometimes. "Hey, common I'm serious. " I said with a serious tone. "I'm serious too little sis, Aunt Sheena notified us that your headaches are worsening as the day goes by. What? Just because of that? Why would my father send my brother here? I know that Kelvin is quite busy in the city. "She also told us that the hospital is quite far from here so I am here to be your personal doctor" He added"Really Kelvin? Is that the only reason and nothing more?" I asked because I am still not convinced that he will be sent here just for that. There is something more important than that. I can feel it.

    Kiera's Point of ViewThree days later. It is a Monday morning again. This is my first day of school. I am glad that my head is now fully healed and I feel so much better now. Aunt Sheena and I went to school together. I did not know that Aunt is a professor at the university where I enrolled. She is currently teaching Greek and Latin language. Now I know why she likes reading so much. "Thanks, Auntie for the ride. " I said to her when she dropped me in my department building. I am currently studying business management and I'm already in my 2nd year. It is too early to go to my first class so I decided to stroll for a while to be familiar with my new school. This school is almost like a quarter of the academy I was attending before. The structure and buildings look so elegant and unique. It is better than I expected. Hallow city is not so crowded and populated unlike in the capital. I think that's the reason why I do not see a lot of students. I did not notice the time while

"Chill, I just saved your life a moment ago, no need to overreact. " I said as I stood up. "Are you feeling better? " I added as I offered my hand to help her stand up. "I'm good now, I can take care of myself," she said and stood on her own. Wow, acting like a tough girl. 'Is that alpha Drix? ' 'Who is that girl?

Literal someone, because that Hendrix carried me again and he just put me down near our gate then just vanished like a wind.Now I remember Lucas. He is fast too and he is almost identical to Lucas.

Haha," Kevin added while laughing.This brother of mine is really mischievous." Maybe she is still in school and has late-night classes I guess," I replied."Oh, that's possible.

You can go back to sleep” I saw Kevin in front of the door. I guess he is faster than me."Okay,’’ I said then I was about to go back to my room when I heard a familiar voice.“Who are you and where is Kiera?” The guy said in a loud voice.“Man, chill, I live here. I should be the one who needs to ask you. Why are you here in the middle of the night?’’ My brother answered in a scary tone. This is how he sounds when he is on a mission as a mafia."Hey, both of you need to relax," I said when I went to them."Go inside Lucas, this is my brother Kelvin.

She looked so serious and mature right now.She held the arrow with her both hands then she pulled it hard.A lot of blood flows out from the wound." Do you need help?" I ask Fiona nervously."I got this Kiera. You can just hold him in his position don't let him move, trust me." She said then she picked up the dagger that I gave her.She cut her own palm usin
