Kira's POVIt felt like the whole world was against me. Any time I hoped to be able to live a single day in peace, something always came up. Now I knew that Lucille wasn't the only one who hated me. Asher's mate knew I was a woman, and she felt threatened by me. It was almost funny, how could someone like her feel threatened by me?! It just didn't make sense. Asher was only playing with me, there was no way he would ever have that sort of interest in me. However, Elena was merely a woman, and she had every right to be jealousAvoiding Asher would be the reasonable thing to do, and I would avoid him if I could. I lived in his part of his palace and he might think I was going against him if I tried avoiding him. And if I decided to move back to my old room, it could be seen as a betrayal on my part, plus Lucille would think I was planning on seducing Killian again. Nothing I did would end well for me. I was trapped between two hard places with no means of escape. I spent the next two da
Kira's POV" I am so glad you could make it, " Lucille said while pulling me into a warm embrace. I did my best to not tense, afraid that Killian might notice how uncomfortable I was. He hadn't taken his eyes off me since I arrived, I didn't know whether to feel flattered or nervous " I'm happy to be here. Thank you for the invitation "" Of course, don't worry about it. My brother-in-law was excited to meet you, so I had to get you two together somehow?"" Asher is excited to meet me?" The confusion in my voice was evident. I thought the reason why Lucille invited me was because Killian asked her to, and she had no other choice than to go through with it. " You know him " The person who spoke was none other than Killian, I turned to look at him and found that his gaze had narrowed on me " How?"" We met at your bonding ceremony "" He is a good person "" Yes, he is "We stared at each other for what felt like forever, finally Killian turned his gaze back to Lucille who immediately
Killian's POV" That is no way to treat a guest, guest " I said. I hadn't meant to approach Elisa just yet, I was afraid it might make Lucille jealous if I did. However, when I saw my brother seated so close by her side, touching her and then leaning forward to kiss her, my vision went red.I left the council of advisors I had been speaking with and went over to their table. I had invited Elisa here because I wanted to see her, so why the hell was she letting my brother do such inappropriate things to her in public. Did the passionate moment we had together a few days ago not mean anything to her? And Asher knew how I felt about this girl, it was probably why he was doing this. He always went out of his way to piss me off. One of these days I would have no other option but to punish him." It is highly inappropriate for you to be doing this right now, in public while knowing that your mate might be watching "" Oh, you don't need to worry about me, yourme your majesty " The bastard ha
Kira's POVOur lips moved together, both of us bating to gain the upper hand. When Killian's hand came to message my breast, my eyes rolled to the back of my head and a sultry moan escaped me. Despite the pleasure, I was still very much aware of where we were and the likeliness that someone else might walk in and see us." Y..Your Majesty, We can't... "" Yes, we can. I want you " To emphasise on his words, he thrusted his hips against me and I moaned at the feel of his hard dick confined in his pants " And I know you want me too. I can smell your arousal "" But someone could..."" Shh, it's just you and me baby. No one else. You don't know how many times I dreamt of having you under me, moaning as I fucked your inside with my cock. You want that, don't you "Oh Moon Goddess, I didn't think I wanted anything more. I couldn't bring myself to form a reply, so I gave him a nod. It was all the go ahead he needed. Killian leaned forward and kissed me again while his hand which had been cu
Lucille's POV" Thank you so much for coming, " I say to one of the women I was seated with. Her husband was one of Killian's advisors, she was also the daughter of one of the strongest alphas in the Kingdom. Both of us were friends, we have been since we met last 2 weeks ago, not because we liked each other, however we were both wives of powerful men in the kingdom and it was expected that we get along. Besides, I needed people who would have my back once I started my full duties as the Luna of the kingdom" Of course, I wouldn't miss an opportunity to see you. However I noticed the king wasn't present. Does he have something to do?"On hearing her words, I was alerted about the absence of my husband at the party. I had seen Killian discussing with some guests not long ago, he seemed to have left while I was still distracted entertaining my friends. I wasn't very happy that he had left the party without talking to me." He must be busy "" How come he didn't tell you before leaving?
Lucille's POV" To see you fall Of course. However, I am giving you a chance here. If you tell me the reason why you went out of your way to ensure no one knew Kira was a girl, I give you my word that I won't say anything to Killian. It's your choice "At this moment, it felt like my world was crashing down. The secret which I had tried so hard to keep was now known by none other than the man who had sworn on the first day we met to get me out of the palace. He might be asking me now why I chose to do what I did, but I had a feeling he already knew why. If he could discover Kira's gender then I'm sure he would be able to figure out the rest. So why was he asking? It was probably because he needed physical evidence to use against me in the future. He might have someone taking a video or even recording me.I looked around us, even though I didn't see anyone I still wasn't relaxed. I chewed my lips tentatively, pondering whether or not to risk telling him more. He already knew about Kira
Lucille's POV" HOW COULD YOU?!!"" Lucille, let me explain " Killian said, despite his words he didn't try letting go of Kira, he was still holding onto that bitch like she was the most precious thing in the world. She at least had the decency to shuffle out of his arms and hurriedly tried to make herself presentable. Like her pulling down her dress would remove the image of my mate fucking her from my mind. Killian watches her with a concerned look, then he goes to pull up his pants. He turns his gaze to me once more while my sister cowers behind him." HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SO STUPID! " I blamed myself for my ignorance. This was why Killian had insisted I invite Kira to the party, it wasn't because Asher liked her, it was because he was cheating on me. I felt so hurt and betrayed that hot tears ran down my face despite how much I tried to remain unfazed." Lucille, please..."" Don't touch me!! You've been cheating on me all this time! I was stupid enough to trust you!!"" It wasn'
Killian's POVI don't regret it. Having Elisa in my arms was one of the best feelings in the world, it was when I felt most at peace. So how could I regret being with someone so beautiful. Yes, I did have my guilt. And I wished Lucille didn't have to find out this way, however now that the truth was out, I had no intention of keeping anything secret anymore, especially my feelings for Elisa." You are my Luna, you will always be my Luna. That position belongs to you and you alone. But Elisa....I care about her and I still wish to have her around. I will keep her in the palace, somewhere you wouldn't have to see her if you don't wish to. And one day I hope you would understand how I feel "Lucille doesn't say anything, she keeps watching me with those tearful eyes. I wish now more than anything to reach out to her and Comfort her, yet I was afraid of hurting her even more. As her mate I was expected to give her my loyalty, she was to be the only woman in my
Asher's POVKira's recovery was slow. Even though I provided her with the best doctors in the whole kingdom, it seemed nothing could nurse her back to full health. A month later and she remained in the nursery where the Doctors could tend to her." She might hurt herself again " one of the doctors told me, he was the one I trusted most to take care of Kira. I would stay and look after her if I could, but I still had my duties as king to perform, now that things have gone out of hand with threats of a rogue pack protesting to dethrone me, I hardly had time to come see her " her problem is a mental one. I think the best Line action would be to get her a therapist so as to overcome her demons, she will heal better after that"I thank the doctor, but i have no idea how to tell him that the only person who could helpkira was unavialable. i hd no idea where my brother was, even though i tried to track him down, knowing his whereabouts might help with the guilt i felt. i didn't think I would
Sebastain couldn't wait to see Kira. He wanted to ensure she was alright and that their baby was healthy as well. The truth was, he was afraid Asher might try something stupid, such as terminating the pregnancy without his or Kira's knowledge. Afterall, he knew that Asher liked Kira as well, so he wouldn't want her carrying someone else's child. The man was a heartless bastard through and through. This might be an unplanned Pregnancy, but he had no right to try terminating.Sebastain honestly regretted not treating Kira better now. Perhaps if he had approached her in a better manner, they might have taken off on a good start, and perhaps she would have agreed to stay with him in his pack. It was too late now, what he had done to her was shitty, even if he regrets it it wouldn't make any difference. Buf Fuck was he looking forward to having a kid with her. It was nothing he had considered until this moment. The idea of having a kid thrilled him, if it was a girl he hoped she would take
Kira's POVThere is something wrong with me, I know it, and it's not only fever, Asher had done his best to cover whatever the issue was. I knew that the Doctor had examined me, and whatever he told Asher must have been important to have him acting like a shadow around me all the time. JHe basically stayed with me all day, sometimes he even brought his paperwork to my room to sort out. The only time he wasn't around me was when he had to attend court, but even those times he would put nearly a dozen guards outside my room and several maids to keep me company. It was like he was afraid I would run away or something.It's not like I had anywhere to run to. There is no pack in the entire kingdom that would take me in. They all knew I was Asher's little infatuation, and only those in the palace knew how cruel Asher was once you touched his stuff. He was a possessive asshole who was willing to do whatever it took to achieve his goal. He had successfully taken the throne, now it seemed he w
" What the fuck did you say to me?!"" I said that you are the real Monster here! Even though you are a Beta!" Elena knows very well how much he hates being reminded of his identity. To Asher, this was his one weakness, the fact that he was a Beta while his brother who he loves with all his heart was an Alpha. When he hears Elena saying this, he doesn't hesitate to reach out and wring her by the neck. She started choking, and she struggled to set herself free" Here I am doing my best to let you live bitch! Yet you keep testing my patience. Do you think I won't kill you?"" W...what difference does it make "" Fuck He " He tosses her away and she falls to the group. Elena struggled to catch her breath" I see a dark cloud looming over you. Even if you have everything you want, you will never be happy! That's your destiny "" Well, since you are not the fucking priestess, I have no reason to listen to whatever shut you say! "Asher tells her to get lost and Elena is too frightened to d
Asher goes to see Kira, he intends to take her back to the pack. Now that he is certain that his brother wouldn't come back for her, he has no reason to leave her with Sebastian after knowing that his cousin was simply going to continue sleeping with her until he got tired of her and found something new to play with.What he did not expect was Sebastian unwilling to let her go. Asher doesn't know whether to feel amazed or simply irritated at Sebastian for refusing to let the woman go even as Asher promised to give him more women in exchange." What is this new infatuation? "" It's not an infatuation. I just feel very guilty letting her go after I...broke her"" What do you mean you broke her?" Asher asked with narrowed eyes. Sebastian gives him a nervous loom before leading him towards the room where Kira was kept. Asher could hardly recognize the woman when he saw her. His cousin had clearly done his best to keep her well taken off, because unlike the rest of his pets, Sebastian act
Sebastian rises to his feet and leaves the room. Only the sound of my cries echo through the empty room. My decision was already made, I could never see Killian die, however when I thought of how heartbroken he would be, it made me have cold feet. He has already lost the kingdom, and now he was going to think I abandoned him.Sebastian received word that Killian had found their whereabouts later that day. He had laughed out in delight as he dragged Kira to the border of the village where they would await Killian. At this point, Kira looked like a ghost of herself, she had cried so much that her eyes were puffy. She knew what was expected of her and while she wasn't looking forward to breaking Killian's heart, she knew she had no choice but to do as she was told." Aren't you excited? '' Sebatain whispered into her ears. His hands made their way around her waist and he drew her close to his chest. The bastard was getting aroused, and Kira wanted nothing more than to punch him on his st
Kira's POV" Good morning sleeping beauty?"Sebastian was kneeling by the side of my bed when I woke up. I was startled at the sight of him. " What is it?"" Aw, there's no need to act so grumpy. I am very happy today, so I figured I would treat you to some delicious food I prepared myself "' He's planning to poison me '" Don't give me that look " Sebastian always seemed to know exactly what I was thinking. " If I wanted to kill you, I would have simply fucked you to that. Now clean up quickly, I'll be waiting outside "I watched him leave with a disgusted expression etched on my face. I didn't want to entertain that bastard, but I also didn't want to make him angry. The last thing I would want was for him to try to rape me again. Groggily, I got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to clean up, even though Sebastian had asked me to be quick, he didn't come to Check on me even as I took much more time than necessary to get ready. He was talking with his Beta when I walked out of
The Priestess doesn't say anything. Her stony gaze is fixed on me, I have never seen her like this before. Even though she was always a distant person, she had treated me with respect in the past, now it seemed she had lost every good feeling for me. The whole court was filled with silence, as I looked at the people in the room, none of them met my gaze. They kept their heads low, however I felt that they were scunning me. If they hadn't agreed to what the Priestess had to say, they would have objected.Even my father wasn't saying anything. A bitter laugh escaped me. " You had this all figured out, didn't you? Even my father was part of this "" Killian, I..."" I don't want to hear it " I glared at the man. " If you have no intention of standing by my side then don't bother giving me your useless excuses. What the fuck now! Priestess, do you intend on ruling the kingdom yourself? With all this bullshit you're spouting, one would think you would make a better king "" Not her " Asher
Killian's POVWe've been searching through the forest for hours, yet our search wasn't as successful as I would have liked it to be. We found some evidence that the Rogues had been here, not long ago even. Yet it wasn't enough to pinpoint where exactly they had gone next. I felt not frustrated and hopeful at the same time, it would only be a matter of time before I found Kira, but I had no idea what state she would be in. What if she had been taken advantage of? How would I ever be able to forgive myself for not protecting her?" Alpha, we need to return back to the palace for now, the council would like to at least be informed of how the sear is going. We can continue tomorrow "I nodded at the better. He was one of Liam's men and had specially been trained to fulfil my every command. I would have preferred it if we continued the search, but I couldn't be that ignorant of my men's wellbeing. They had been working all day and they needed rest. We drove back to the palace. The moment I
