Killian's point of viewI dismissed the meeting, leaving with everyone. To my surprise, I had forgotten to close the general link between the pack and me, and now the entire pack knows everything. They were aware of the situation that Thea wasn't the gifted one, and that Sheila could be the one we had been searching for. I moved in a hurry back to my chamber where Sheila was. Brielle was with her, and as soon as she saw me, she lowered her head."How is she?" I asked her, moving to the bed."Still the same, Alpha. But I think she's in pain, and her body is still fucking hot." Brielle said and I nodded to her words.After some time, she left my chamber, leaving me alone with my mate. I snuck into bed, laying right next to her. My large hand fell on her soft round face, and Brielle was right. Sheila's temperature was rising every second.I cradled her softly into my arms, stroking her brown hair. She looked so fragile. I couldn't stop the tears that rushed from my eyes. This was all my
Sheila's point of viewArrgghh!I groaned internally in pain. I felt sore all over and there was a murderous ache in my head that kept pounding mercilessly, and tirelessly in my skull.My whole body felt like it was in flames, I could feel the enormous surge of magic that flowed within me. It was very familiar."Sweetheart," I heard a familiar, yet foreign voice call out to me. "Wake up," a warm hand touched my body, "It's time to wake up," the voice sounded again, more urgently.Reluctantly, I tried to pull my eyes open but I failed as soon as another ache banged against my skull. It was getting worse and more painful. I could feel the unsettledness within me."Sweetheart, wake up." The voice sounded again, encouraging me to break free once more.I groaned again and using all my strength, I pulled my eyes open. Everywhere was bright. So bright that I squinted my eyes, but still I couldn't see anything. All I could make out were distinct voices, near echoes, and some familiar whispers
Sheila's point of viewI stood frozen, unmoving as my gaze stared at the name written boldly on the castle walls.The Black Blood Pack.Confusion hit me harder. Why was I here?Nothing made sense. Now more than ever, I needed to know exactly what was going on. I was so fucking curious to find out who truly these people were, and why wasn't the man whom I have always known as my father, not in the picture.The blue flames around me died instantly, I walked through the castle doors. I found myself in the large main room. My head turned right as loud noises echoed from there. I began to move through the golden hallways. The more steps I took, I saw several of my younger self racing through the hallways.I felt a piercing ache as I remembered memories of myself racing through these hallways. Soon, I reached the large dining court. It was filled with so many people. They were members of the pack, all having dinner around several tables.I moved closer to where my younger self was seated.
Sheila's point of view"Sister?"The words echoed loudly in my ears, I could feel my insides become still. The cold that feasted on my bare feet traveled through my bones to my chest. I held my breath, as my body began to swerve around slowly.I turned around, and immediately, I was welcomed by those piercing deep blue eyes that were identical to mine. I couldn’t push back the tears that formed at once just staring at the deep crystals of my older brother, Leonardo.My lips trembled against each other."Sheila," he said in a low tone, as his eyes regarded me cautiously in disbelief, and maybe confusion.I abandoned the traitorous words that failed to leave my lips, and without holding back, I pushed my legs in motion and closed the lonesome gap between us.I raced into his arms, clutching my arms around his neck. It took him a second before I felt his warm hands envelop me."Brother," I broke down in tears as the word left my lips.Leonardo held me tightly, almost molding me against h
Sheila's point of viewI couldn't breathe properly, and the vibrations were only getting worse."Get away from her, you two. This is your fault, Kai," Denise made her way to me, pulling me into her arms. She began rubbing circles on my back, whatever she was doing was really helping. Soon, I felt myself calming down, and the vibrations from the earth stopped.I pulled away from her, "Thanks,""I am sorry, I didn't mean to upset you," Kai was by my side. I couldn't blame him. He had lived these years remembering that night, and the tragedy that befell us, while I had forgotten."We need to ensure more control of your magic, after what happened tonight, the Dark Circle will be after you, again," Leonardo said, and I nodded with him in agreement. I needed to put a leash on this uncontrollable energy within me. Mother had always been worried about this, but she always believed I was strong to control my magic, even at a young age."But how?" I asked, "There is no way I can do this alone."
Sheila's point of viewI watched Killian's reflection through my glassy eyes. He pulled me into his arms, fear crippling his facial features."Hey, I don't like seeing you like this, we could talk later, you need rest right now, you need to sleep," Killian said, placing me down on the bed. He crawled in beside me, pulling the covers over us.I rested my head on his chest while his large arms swallowed me completely as he pulled me to sleep. I didn't know when the exhaustion took over and I fell asleep.I found myself in the darkness, crying with blood over me, and before my eyes I watched my mother die in the hands of that man, Nell Reid. Her blood splattered everywhere, smearing the bloody lips of the feral beasts. And his dark murderous eyes fell on me.I jerked up on the bed, falling into Killian's arms that were ready to receive me. He pulled me into his arms, trying to calm me but I couldn't stop the vibrations that made my body tremble. I gripped him tightly, trying to breathe h
Sheila's point of view"That's not the worst part, love," Killian said with sad and serious eyes as I listened to him. "The crescent moon rising is barely three weeks away and we just found out we still don't have the gifted one," he paused, gazing at me intently. "Thea isn't the gifted one."My body froze in Killian's arms. "What?Thea isn't the gifted one. Those words echoed over and over in the walls of my mind. Even Adie was as shocked as I was.I could have been expecting anything but this. I hadn't seen it coming. But wait, something was wrong. "How is that even possible?" I asked. From what I knew, everyone was sure Thea was the gifted one, even Killian had seen her in his dreams. So, how on earth could she suddenly not be the gifted one?"I don't know. But Valerie confirmed it. The cleansing ritual with Thea's blood didn't work," he explained it all to me.While Adie was exploding with subtle joy, I couldn't help but feel sadder. This news brought me no joy in any way. If Kill
Sheila's point of viewI couldn't take it anymore, I shut my eyes and sighed, "Those fucking assholes Morgan, they are my brothers," I said, pulling my eyes open. My blue crystals dwelt on Morgan's furious gaze."What the hell are you saying, Sheila?" Morgan's hands gripped my shoulders tightly, his nails digging into my flesh. He was furious, his gaze was murderous."Morgan, what the heck are you doing?" Killian's raging voice sounded from a corner as he stalked closer to us.Morgan's grip on me only tightened as his green gaze shifted on Killian. "Did you know? Did you know that she is a Black? Sheila is one of those bastards?" Morgan yelled, and suddenly, everything began to shake violently.Killian cast a murderous gaze on me, one full of hatred and disgust. His lips pulled open, and he called for the warriors. "Take this bitch and have her executed right away!"My eyes widened with how everything turned for the worst within seconds. I couldn't even speak a word before I was dragg
