The Chosen One Chapter 43: CURIOSITY
Mima’s POVKia’s small fingers gripped my arm tightly as he shook, his wide eyes locked on Stephanie.His breath hitched as his tiny chest rose and fell too fast.“Kia?” My voice was soft but all he did was flinch when I spoke.His lips trembled, his fingers twitching as he stammered something under his breath. I leaned closer, trying to catch it. His voice was barely a whisper.“Witch.”The word sent a shiver down my spine.He pointed a trembling finger at Stephanie, his breaths ragged. His entire body shook as if his bones were vibrating under his skin.The room had gone silent. Eyes darted between Kia and Stephanie, murmurs breaking out.Stephanie’s expression twisted into shock and something I couldn't place my finger on. She raised a perfectly arched brow at me and then trailed her eyes to Kia.What did he mean by calling her a witch?I didn’t have time to analyze it. I wrapped my arms around Kia, pulling him into my chest. “I’m sorry,” I said to the table, my voice steady despit

Mima's POV“What do you want to tell me? Spill it out.” I turned to Dylan to hear him out. I felt Zahra’s hand on my wrist as she tried to tug me out of the room but I didn't want to leave.“Well, glad you made the right choice.” He smirked and walked over to his desk and sat on it.“There's this maid... what's her name again?” He placed his hand on his chin, faking trying to remember.My heart sped up because I knew who he was referring to, but maybe she wasn't the one.“Oh yes! Julia. That's her name. Wasn't she your friend while you were here? Have you seen her around lately?” He stared me in the eye, his smirk growing wider.“What did you do to Julia!” I screamed at him in anger. He couldn't have possibly killed her, would he?Zahra tried her best to hold me back but I tugged my hands away and stomped towards him.All colour drained from his face when I grip his shirt and pull him towards me.“What did you do to Julia? Speak this instant before I gorge your eyes out with my bare h

Mima's POVI saw Stephanie standing in the distance with two guards beside her looking all put together like she always had. She still had that evil aura around her and I was sure I wasn't the only one that could feel it.The guards kept a reasonable distance from her and you could see the fear in their eyes.“Mima, oh my. You look beautiful.” She gushed when she spotted me.Oh please. I rolled my eyes at her and I saw her left eye twitch at my reaction. She can't possibly be expecting us to act all buddy- buddy after all she had done to me.She held onto my hand and pulled me really close to her into a hug. I felt really uncomfortable.I pulled away immediately and kept my distance between us.“Your maid has already told me why you wanted to meet with me.”“Oh, has she?” Stephanie looked at the maid with anger visible in her eyes. “Did I ask you to tell her?”The maid began to shake and tremble at how Stephanie was staring at her.“I... I...”“It's not her fault; Rake wouldn't let me

Mima's POV“The rules, the first person to leave the oyer incapable of moving on their own, wins. No shifting and no claws or teeth. It's going to be a pure fist match.” The moderator said as he looked between the both of us. I nodded at him, accepting the rules of the match.I looked at my people once more giving them a small smile before looking back at Stephanie and her condensing smile.The moderator left the circle and a whistle was blown.Stephanie didn't waste a second as she rushed to me with so much force that I was tackled to the ground. I raised my hands to block my face just like it was taught to reduce damage.She didn't waste a moment before throwing punches at me.She kept on hitting me, not giving me space to gather myself and the roars of the crowd got louder. They were shouting her name so loudly cheering her on.She took a second to hit me and I used that opportunity to push her off me and put her in a headlock.The crowd booed at me and Stephanie was trying to pry

Chapter 47THE AFTERMATHMima's POV“Mima.”Julia smiled at me as she limped toward me.I had forgotten to ask her why she looked so injured when I saw her at the brawl. Purple and black bruises littered her skin, dark against her complexion, and her right hand was wrapped in heavy bandages.Why... What did they do to her?Zahra seemed to notice my shift in expression because she gently took Kia’s hand and stood. “Come on, Kia, let's take a walk.”I barely registered Kia’s little voice asking, Why is Julia hurt? Before the door clicked shut, leaving us alone.The moment the sound of their footsteps faded, I rushed to Julia’s side and grabbed her uninjured hand. She flinched as I grabbed her, but immediately she noticed what she had done. She turned and tried to smile, but it didn't reach her eyes.“What happened to you?” I muttered.The moment the door closed, the strength she had been holding onto shattered. Her face crumpled, and she broke into quiet sobs.I couldn’t hold back. I pu

Mima's POVRake's smile fell and his brows furrowed slightly, his lips pressing into a thin line as he stared at Julia, looking directly at her wounds.Julia squirmed in her seat, shifting uncomfortably under the scrutiny. Her fingers fidgeted with the hem of her dress, and she cast a nervous glance my way as if silently asking for help.I elbowed Rake in the ribs. He flinched and looked down at me with his brow raised and I mouthed later.He gave a subtle nod and looked away from Julia.I sighed, turning my attention back to her. “I was thinking... when I go back home, I want you to come with me.”Julia blinked. “Come with you?”Rake’s brow arched slightly at my words, but he remained silent.I nodded. “Yes. I don’t think you should stay here. It’s not safe, and you don’t owe them anything.”Julia hesitated.Rake finally spoke. “That might be a little complicated.” I frowned at him. “Why?”He leaned back to the wall and crossed his arms. “Because Julia is still a member of Dylan’s pa

Mima's POVI shifted slightly, brushing strands of hair from his forehead. “Kia,” I whispered.The room was quiet except for Kia’s steady breathing beside me. His small arms were still wrapped around my waist, his body warm against mine.His eyelids fluttered open, as he looked around, probably trying to remember how he got here.“Morning,” he mumbled.I hesitated before speaking. “You stayed with me the whole night. Thank you.”He shrugged. “You needed it.”I smiled faintly. “I really appreciate what you did but don't leave Zahra alone without telling anyone. This isn't our pack, we might not be safe.”“I told Zahra you were sad and she let me come here,” he grumbled. He didn't like to get scolded. That's one thing I had noticed about him.Kia turned his head slightly, staring at the ceiling as he ignored me.Sheesh.I should change the topic then. “Kia… Can you tell me about your past?”His whole body tensed.I had expected that reaction. Kia never talked about where he came from or

Rake’s POV“Rake, sir,” the maid’s voice calls softly through the door. “A letter for you.”I sit up in bed, instantly awake, rubbing my eyes. I throw on a robe and open the door. She hands me a letter and immediately I glance at the seal, I recognise it.“Thank you,” I mutter, and she nods, disappearing back down the hall.I sit down on the bed, the thick paper crinkling in my hands as I break the seal and unfold the letter.Alpha Rake, we’ve found leads on the strange who kidnapped Mima. We also have new information on Kia’s past. Come back immediately. It’s urgent.~BeckI run my hand through my hair in frustration. We have to go back.Mima was sleeping on the bed peacefully with Kia tucked beside her. He had been sleeping here ever since that day he spoke to me. Mima stirred and slowly opened her eyes. She looked around the room before her eyes landed on me. She looked at the letter in my hand and raised a brow.“You’re up early,” she comments, her voice light, though I can tell

The Chosen One Chapter 95: A BAT ACROSS THE FACE.
Mima's POVI walked through the dark halls of the hospital.I needed to check up on Julia. It had been a week since my visit to the gods' realm, and despite our best efforts, we had made little progress on training Kia. I had thought it would be simple, considering we had the book as a guide.But the wording and diagrams were cryptic, layered with meanings that twisted upon themselves. Every sleepless night I spent trying to decipher them had left me frustrated and exhausted.And about the news concerning Ria and Kian? We have got nothing. The only good news is that the soldiers are working hard enough that they can now almost beat Beck and Zahra in a one on one. Their group battles aren't strong yet though…My boots echoed against the polished floor of the hospital. The nurses on duty were few, and from my inquiries, it turns out that the doctor is on his break so the whole hospital is just quiet.I reached Julia’s room, pausing for a moment before slowly pushing open the door. The r
The Chosen One Chapter 94: FACEDOWN BETWEEN gods.
Mima's POV My ears were ringing when I slowly opened my eyes to look up. Someone was carrying me in her arms and I couldn't make out who it was. Her long delicate fingers slowly dropped me to the ground and I saw Kia on the other side of her.I kept willing the ringing to stop but it only got louder. I placed my hand on both sides of my head and after a while, the ringing stopped. I raised my head to look up to see the goddess facing the god of destruction head on and from the look on his face, he was scared? The god of destruction's expression flickered between anger and feigned amusement, his dark eyes narrowing at the radiant figure before him. The goddess stood tall, unfazed by his presence, her very being emanating a power that seemed to press against the fiery air of the realm.“You were going to let them leave?” The goddess asked, her voice was calm but there was an underlying annoyed tone. The god of destruction let out a deep, dark chuckle, though the amusement didn't qui
The Chosen One Chapter 93: TWENTY SOLDIERS, DEAL OR NO DEAL.
Mima’s POVWe appeared in another realm and it was dark and gory like. There was fire everywhere or was that Lava? The walls seemed as though we were melting and a thought crossed me that it seemed this was a volcano like environment. Perfect habitat for one of destruction. The heat was unbearable and I felt extremely hot but all my focus was on saving Kia. I thrashed against the guard that was holding, my wrists aching from his strong grip. “Let us go!” I growled, struggling harder.The guards ignored me and forced us forward, marching toward an enormous door. The doors pulled open on their own and we walked through. I was still looking around, trying to gauge where we were and the level of danger we were in when they shoved me and Kia to our knees.I instinctively reached for Kia, pulling him close to my side as the towering figure seated on a throne stared down at us.The god of destruction and punishment.His presence alone was suffocating. His dark robes rippled like living sh
The Chosen One Chapter 92: APPREHENDED IN THE ABYSS
Mima's POVThe man stepped forward, his handsome face on display as he moved. He had a cream and blue apparel on, and his hair was in long dark locs that fell below his shoulders.His pasty skin, the same shade as Kia’s, glowed in the dimly lit prison.“Kia,” he breathed, his voice deep. Kia took an uncertain step forward, his small fingers gripping my hand tightly. “Daddy?” he whispered, as if afraid the image before him would disappear.The man nodded, his expression softening. “Yes, my son. I’ve wanted to see you for so long.”Kia’s fingers twitched in mine, and I knew he wanted to run to his father, to embrace him, but the thick golden bars separating them made it impossible. His father knelt before him, leveling his gaze with Kia’s, and reached out to touch the barrier, his fingertips shimmering against the energy that crackled in the air.I cleared my throat, breaking the moment. “You called me here for a reason,” I said, trying not to show how intimidated I felt by his powers.
The Chosen One Chapter 91: BACK IN THE ABYSS
Mima's POV I walked through the halls to Zahra's room. Rake had gone to check the soldiers and also learn the new moves that Beck was showing them. Daria had holed herself up in the library looking for anything that could be of help.And Julia? She's still unconcious so we've not gotten any news from her. I had asked a maid who told me that Kia was with Zahra. It had been a day since I had come back from the goddess' realm to see Kia's father. I needed to wait a while before rushing into things.I swung the door open and walked in to see Kia and Zahra together on the bed, reading a book, with snacks around them.“Hi guys, am I free to join you?” They both looked up and Zahra nodded.“Mima!” Kia said, smiling at me with all his teeth. I smiled back at him and ruffled his hair as I sat beside him. “Hey kiddo. So there's somewhere we need to go. Want to come with me?” I could feel Zahra staring intently at the side of my head but I don't look at her. Kia nodded, enthusiastic to go
The Chosen One Chapter 90: MEETING KAI'S FATHER
Mima's POVI closed my palm, extinguishing the fire, and Rake gasped."Wow... I mean, not that I didn't believe you but... wow... that's so impressive."He said, and I just laughed. It was actually impressive if I say so myself.Rake reached out, taking my hands in his, his eyes scanning my face. "And this is how you defeated them? How long have you known you had this power?""It has been a while now.," I admitted, squeezing his hands gently. I didn't know how he would take that information, knowing that I kept this from him for so long. "It's been revealing itself to me in pieces and I don't know if I've unlocked all my powers yet. But there's something more pressing I need to handle."His brows furrowed in concern. "What is it?"I hesitated. Telling him would only make him worry and dumping all that information on him now? but there was no avoiding it. I can't keep things from him for so long any longer. "I have to go to the goddess realm."Rake stiffened. "What?! The goddess' rea
The Chosen One Chapter 89: REVELING THE SPIES
Mima's POV It's the next person's turn and like the other, he attacked first rushing towards me with his fists balled. I knelt down, doing the same move as earlier and punching him.Moving him slightly backwards. He winced from the hit but regained his composure immediately. He came at me again but this time. I just held his hand and slowed the speed of his punch that was supposed to come at me. I imbued my powers in my palms to make it hot and he didn't flinch from it. I tried harder but he didn't show any reaction.“You too. Move to the right. Who's next?” I said to the line and another man stepped forward.This went on for a while and I was starting to think I was mistaken when the man I was holding jumped back, screaming.“You—” he looked at me with so much hatred in his eyes and I finally smirked.I pointed at two men from the right that I had cleared before. “Hold him.” They rushed out and held him down to the ground, watching him struggle. Three others from the line took th
The Chosen One Chapter 88: TESTING THE SOLDIERS
Mima's POVWe walked back into the Arena with the guard behind us. “I was waiting for you.” Rake said but I just ignored him.“Why aren't you talking to me?” “Oh, now you're seriously asking me that? After you turned a deaf ear to me pleading for the life of the elders? I knew that they didn't do too well or even do good by disobeying you but taking their life is just too cruel of a punishment to give.” “Mima, please. They deserve this.” He replied and I just couldn't tell if this was the man I was falling in love with.Wait … what did I just say? I'm in love with Rake? I felt a blush crept up my cheeks and he looked puzzled staring at me.“I wouldn't sit here and watch you take innocent people's lives”. I stood up and walked away and Take rushed to grab my hand and spun me around, pulling me to his chest. “Fine, I'll do anything to make you happy.” And he pecked my forehead.“Release them.” He yelled and everyone turned to face him with wide eyes. “Throw them in the dungeons in
The Chosen One Chapter 87: BEST FRIENDS
Mima's POV The whole pack sat at the designated seats for the crowd while the elders in front were paraded in chains. I could hear wailing from some people in the crowd but I chose to ignore them because if I looked at them I would have sympathy for all the things that the elders have done so far. I knew they would be the family members, their wives, husbands and possibly daughters and sons. None of them have the heart to challenge their Alpha.I felt bad about the whole thing so I turned it to Rake to see if I could beg on behalf of the elders, but the expression on his face told me to just mind my words and be quiet.The soldiers stepped out holding swords and spears, walking towards the elders one by one and standing in front of them. I liked at their faces one by one and took a breathe of relief when I found out that Rake's aunt wasn't included.“Rake.” I tapped Rake to get his attention. “Don't you think we should spare these people? I mean they made mistakes and anyone can
