Killian's point of viewI stirred on the bed, inhaling deeply. I was forced to push my eyes open as the sweet scent of my mate invaded my nostrils and heightened my senses.I moaned into the softest brown hair that tickled my face. I had to choke back a laugh at the ravenous woman beside me and the manner in which her long natural curls were scattered on the bed. She was sleeping next to me, with a hand of hers on my chest, and her head next to mine. She was beautiful.I couldn't help but take a few moments to relish the sweet feeling of having my mate back again in my arms. I took my sweet time scanning her flawless figure. Her perfect thick brows, her rosy cheeks, and her irresistible lips. I fought the urge to kiss her awake, she was sleeping peacefully and the dark circles around the skin of her eyes told me she hadn't been resting well.She was still naked on the bed, with only the silk sheets, covering the lower half of her body while her exposed sight was making me hard already
Thea's point of viewI stopped at the entrance of the hallway, the instant my eyes fell on that bitch, gracefully seated on a chair, having her meal at the dining hall. So it was true. She had returned back to the pack.I clutched the handful of my dress in my hand, furiously as my brown blazing eyes glowered at her from afar. As if sensing my presence, that bloody witch tilted her head towards my direction and her lucent blue eyes collided with mine.She let out a lip-tight smile as I walked into the dining hall and settled on the seat opposite hers.I pulled up a shrewd smile, watching her. "You are back?" I muttered as one of the helpers served some food for me. My eyes never moved away from her."As you can see," she said, sipping from her drink, holding my stare."Why are you back? I thought you had some decency to understand the situation," I said, my entire focus on her as I couldn't understand why the bitch was back. She was a problem. Her presence itself was a problem, and ju
Sheila's point of viewI remained silent and unmoving for a while, watching as Thea faded into one of the hallways.I sighed, clasping my hands together as I brought my eyes back to the table. From what just transpired between Thea and me, more than ever, I believed my suspicions were true. Thea wasn't expecting Killian's pup.That was a good thing and meant she indeed had a lover. But I had no way to unmask her lies. I had only bluffed but I had nothing to prove that she was a complete whore who had a lover while pretending to be in love with Killian. For that, I could only rely on Thea.I had never seen those shrewd brown gazes of hers ever hold in so much fear. It was obvious my words had shaken her to the core, and she cares a whole lot about protecting her despicable lie. I can only hope she does something drastic, something that would finally help me throw the whore out of my pack, and permanently out of Killian's life.Oh, what joy that would be!I breathed in, pulling up from
Killian's point of viewI was still in the meeting with some of my warriors, Morgan, Mason, and Allen when the door burst open and my eyes lifted and fell on Valerie's deep purple eyes.Her deep crystals reflected an emotion I have never seen before. It made my heart bang against my chest."Everyone, leave. Now!" I ordered, not taking my eyes off Valerie. The last time I had seen her was when I handed Thea's items to her, and I was informed by Gwen that she had left the pack in a haste. With the way she looked, I could only conclude that she had just returned and had come here straight away.I watched the last warrior leave my office, leaving just Morgan, Valerie, and me.Valerie stalked closer and I offered her a seat, but she shook her head."What happened, Valerie?" Morgan asked, also feeling her uneasiness."This is unbelievable, you all can't begin to imagine what I just found out," she muttered, and for a second, her purple eyes flickered with rage."Is this about Thea?" I queri
Sheila's point of viewMy whole body was numb. I still haven't recovered from the shock of finding out that Thea was the witch. She was the fucking witch that has been after me and Killian for a long time.Oh, goddess. How couldn't I have known this, or at least suspected it? I knew Thea Chrysler was a devil in disguise but never it occurred to me that she was a witch. A fucking witch.That means she knew all along. She knew about Lucius, and about me. She knew about my identity. She knew I was a witch. Of course, she did. She found out when I had fought against her."Surprised?" Her voice pealed into my mind, gaining my attention.My eyes leveled on her bright brown gaze that was gleaming brightly in amusement."Yes, this is indeed a shock to me. I never expected that you of all people would be the witch," I said, regarding her, as her smile deepened. "I got to hand it to you, Thea, you played us all quite well,""Thank you, but frankly it wasn't that hard," she dragged her hands up,
Killian's point of viewI had every wolf in the pack combing through the pack in search of Sheila and Thea. I was with Valerie and we were trailing Sheila's scent and magic to the woods.I was at a distance when Sheila's scent hit me strongly along with another unfamiliar scent."There," Valerie and I hurried through the woods, and we burst out into a small clearing in the woods where Sheila and Thea were. I could barely see anything as the air around us was rough and stormy and in utter chaos. They were fighting against each other, making use of their magic.I was about to rush in and join my mate when Valerie instantly held me back, stepping right in front of me, she pulled her hands up quickly in the air and blocked the mighty murderous force that was headed our way.Just then, the stormy air around got sucked in and without warning, Thea's body was tossed harshly against the rooted tree trunk that was at a distance, and the rough air settled and became calm.Thea groaned and was t
Killian's point of viewI froze as my amber eyes pierced right through that of Thea's. I didn't know why that name of hers sounded familiar, and the look she held in her brown eyes told me I was right. There was more to all of this.For the first time, all I could see in those venomous brown eyes was hate. A deep unmistakable hatred for me. She hated me. But why?I took a step closer to her, as silence lingered between us for a second."Am I supposed to know that name?" I asked, and the brown fury in her eyes only sparked more.But she didn't say a word."Thea, you've been caught. And there's no way you'll be breaking free. Every one of those," I pointed at the chains binding her. "They've been spelled to keep you from using your magic, and also this dungeon. So, we could do this the easy way or the hard way. I know you are working for Lucius—" I began but her hysterical laughter cut me off immediately.I paused, watching her until she was done."You are completely clueless, aren't yo
Unknown person's point of viewI was dying to see her after she's been caught and thrown in the dungeon in a state worse than a prisoner.But I just couldn't be careless and get caught.Killian had eyes on the dungeon and I couldn't risk getting caught. So, I had no choice but to wait until there was a shift in the guards, before the first light of dawn.I had volunteered to keep watch over Thea's dungeon with a few warriors. After a while of guarding outside the dungeon, I turned to the warriors and told them I had to go check on the prisoner.I pulled the large dungeon doors open, stalking through the narrow passage down to where another tall door was.Gently, I unlocked it open with a spare key, jerking it open and my eyes instantly fell on my mate. It broke my heart completely to see her confined against the chair like some kind of monster.I walked in, but her eyes were closed. As if sensing my presence, she breathed out."What the hell are you doing here?" She bit out ragingly,
