"What's this in clause 5, this wasn't added here the first time." Kiara pointed out as her eyes carefully kept scanning the contract to check if there was anything that had been changed other than what she had earlier asked to be changed."Mr Aiden made it clear that we offer him this if he was going to agree to what you earlier stated."Kiara pursued her lips, thinking about what he had just said. Although the Clause wasn't going to have so much effect on the contract there was nothing so special or suspicious about it, but still, she felt a bit of uneasiness staring at it. What was Aiden up to when he added this?"If you would like us to proceed, then I can send the contract back immediately, and you can head there as soon as possible. As I told you earlier, this is a matter of urgency, and therefore, there's a need for an urgent response."Kiara didn't utter a word as she was still staring at the contract. There was no need to rush because she was doing this for herself. She knew w
"Are you sure this is right? I mean what if Doctor Karla finds out? She has every right to end the contract once she does." Cass uttered, but Aiden didn't say a word to him immediately. He simply sat on his throne, staring at his phone with a really bad feeling creeping through his mind."Cass, when is she supposed to arrive?" Aiden questioned again even though Cass had already answered that question about 3 minutes ago."In a few hours. I got a message from the hospital saying doctor Karla was on her way and would be here soon."Aiden rose to his feet, "Apart from you and I, who else knows I'm getting a doctor?" The look on Aiden's face told Cass that something was wrong. Whenever Aiden had that look, then Cass knew it meant something was going to happen, or that he was afraid."What's wrong, Alpha?""Where's Blake? Call him immediately!" Aiden instructed. As Cass turned around to leave, Aiden suddenly called him back, "No, wait! I trust you more, Cass. Go to the airport and keep an
A FEW HOURS LATER: Kiara opened her eyes slowly. Her vision was blurry at first so it took her a while to be able to see properly. When she was back to her senses, she rose from the bed and gasped,"My children…. Lisa, oh my goodness, where…" There was a figure standing close to the window with his back turned on her. "Where am I? Where the hell are my kids?" Kiara repeatedly questioned, but the moment he turned around to face her, the expression on her face changed."Aiden??" Kiara called out loud and scoffed. "What the hell are you doing… did you?" Then she guessed he must have been the one who kidnapped her earlier. All Kiara was worried about was her kids and Lisa. She rose to her feet and began walking towards him,"Where are they? Where are my kids?" She questioned, but Aiden was quiet. He couldn't take his gaze off her, and Kiara could see the look of regret in his eyes, but she cared less about it. All she wanted was to get the fucking hell out of the mansion as soon as poss
It took some time but soon, Aiden was stable once again. As soon as Cass stepped out of the ward, Kiara rushed towards him. "Aiden, how's Aiden?" She questioned worriedly, clutching her hands tight and trying not to go insane."He's stable now," Cass stated, making Kiara heaved deeply."What happened Cass? I mean what's happening to him? I have never seen such sickness before."Cass was silent for a minute, then he recalled what Aiden had said to him a few minutes ago. He didn't want Kiara to know what was happening to him, and he didn't want her pity as well."Aiden's fine, Kiara. He had been working so hard lately and maybe the effects were very serious." Cass lied and waited for Kiara's expression, but she only nodded her head,"Can I see him?" Kiara questioned, but he shook his head in negation, and replied,"He's asleep now, I think he needs a lot of rest." Not knowing what to say again, Kiara simply nodded her head and was about to leave when Cass took her hand, "Kiara, the pac
Putting the last touch on her hair with a band, Kiara reached for her bag and stared at herself in the mirror. She always preferred to look very simple.She was dressed in royal blue jeans, a black tank top, and a white pair of sneakers. Her hair was styled in a ponytail, and her face had only a little powder and some red shiny lipstick. Breathing heavily, Kiara spoke some words of encouragement to herself. She had an appointment with Aiden today, and right now, she was so nervous for no reason.There was a gentle knock on the door before it opened."Ohhhh, someone's all dressed up and looking pretty. Don't tell me you're all dressed up because you're going to see the Alpha King?" Lisa questioned leaving a mischievous smile that made Kiara roll her eyes playfully,"Stop joking around, Lisa, I'm just tryna do my work, okay? Now, I've got to go, else I'd be late.""And someone's in a hurry."Kiara chuckled and began to walk away, "Stop kidding girlfriend." She yelled, taking the stairs
"What's wrong, Blake?" Aiden questioned immediately."There was an attack on some members of the pack, and most of them were injected with poisonous substances." Immediately Aiden heard this, he rose to his feet. "Gather the soldiers immediately, and ensure a safe house for every member that was injured during the attack."Blake nodded his head and ran out of the room, while Kiara didn't move because she couldn't believe what she had just heard. What the hell was happening? Kiara thought, staring at Aiden as he struggled to rise to his feet."What's happening?""Nothing. It's nothing I can't handle." Aiden responded, but Kiara wasn't going to take that as an answer to her question. She rushed towards Aiden and grabbed his arm,"Tell me what the hell is happening? Look at you, you can't go out there else you're gonna collapse. When I checked your pulse earlier, you were weak, Aiden so I guess it's best if you stay put and let Blake handle everything."Aiden slowly removed her hand fro
"Tell me what the fuck happened, Cass. How come rogues were able to attack the outskirts of my pack?" Aiden yelled so loud, not minding the fact that he was still very sick and weak. Seeing his pack in danger right there, and seeing all those people suffering as a result of the poison was fucking hard.Right that same minute, the door opened and Blake stepped in lowering his head to greet Aiden."Alpha, the Dark Sky pack left a message. The rogues are not only attacking our pack, but theirs too, and other packs around the eastern and northern zones. We need to get that treaty done as soon as possible so that other packs can know who their enemies are."Aiden wrecked his hands through his hair, knowing fully well that the alpha of the dark sky pack was only trying to get him out there. Many people would begin to think something was going on with him because for a year plus, he had been unable to go to war or to stop the rogues who were attacking.He wrecked his fingers into his hair on
Kiara curled her hands, staring at her phone. She scoffed aloud and turned around to walk back into the house since there was no need to go to the palace. Aiden didn't need her so who was she to bother herself with him?As she took a step, she halted just immediately and heaved deeply. Whatever she had felt this morning was very much strange and she had to find out if Aiden was alright.Kiara clutched her phone tight, thinking about what to do. Why the hell could she not let herself stop thinking about him after what she had seen yesterday? She turned around again and began to walk down the hill, heading straight for the roadside to find a cab. It was now she had to overcome her fear and get into one."Taxi." Once the car halted, she swallowed hard and got in, slowly shutting the door. The driver ignited the engine and drove away afterward.It took about an hour and the can halted. As Kiara stepped down, she outstretched her hand and handed him a few dollar bills with some change. "T
