Mia's povI woke up at four am, even though I hardly slept all night. I could feel my magic vibrating right under my skin. It wasn't painful by any means, just uncomfortable, I felt so different. "I guess we need some time to adjust to our new powers" Violet said, sounding just as tired as I was. She hadn't slept either, she'd stayed up with me and now I know it wasn't to keep me company. "Yeah and I hope it doesn't take too long, I don't like not sleeping" I said throwing the blanket off of me, it was starting to get a little too hot. I got off the bed, stretching a little and instantly realised that I needed to go for a run. And so without hesitation, I grabbed a sports bra and leggings from my bag, which I guess I should unpack, and put the clothes on on. Grabbing the shoes that I used to run away from my home, I quickly slipped them on and made my way out. The house was quiet, which meant Josy was still asleep, so I made sure not to wake her. Once outside, I stretched for abou
Serena’s pov“Pl… please my lady” the worthless waste of breathe groaned, coughing out blood, further staining the floor.“Mercy” he choked out, making me grit my teeth in anger, mercy was the last thing on my mind. “You want mercy? Tell us what we want to know!” my son, killian growled as he threw yet another punch to the guards already bloodied face. “I don.. don’t kn.. know anything” the guard said between breathes and I finally stood from my chair.“Why do you keep protecting them? They left you here to die! Why are you so loyal? I am your priestess, shouldn’t you be loyal to me?” I asked, wanting nothing more than to cut out his throat but I still needed him. “I didn’t see anything my lady, I swear” he begged and I had to commend his strength, many would have broken from all the pain we inflicted on him. Maybe he was telling the truth. “Lies!” Killian roared and stabbed the guard’s shoulder with the knife he’d been using to cut and stab him. “Aaaaaaaah, please, I swear on m
Trevor's povI was a whirlwind of emotion and exhausting but I let none of it show as we continued to run through the night till dawn. "We should find a water source, rest and refuel" I said to the others through the link and they agreed. All except Uncle Mika."No, we keep going" he said, a little too aggressive, making Drew stand at attention at the obvious disrespect. He'd been barking orders at us all night long and would rush us every time we took a moment too long to catch our breaths. We'd put up with it all night and I had to calm Drew a lot more times than I'd like and to an extent, I understood, it's his daughter we were out here looking for but she was my mate and I'm the Alpha here. "We've been running all night, we all need rest! We're useless if the person following us decides to attack and we can't even defend ourselves!" I growled, letting my Alpha aura out so he would submit. "We don't know who it is or what they're capable of, all we know is that it's not a rogue.
Mia's povJosy and I had been out in the forest, away from the coven for some quiet because my training had officially started. Well, more like we'd hit a wall and I was just about ready to explode. "Relax Mia, forcing it will only make it harder, let it flow through you" she said in a gentle voice but it still got on my nerve. I'd been at it for hours but still couldn't get the hang of it, especially since she told me this was the easiest part of my training, learning how to control and manipulate the wind. I tried to ease my mind and follow her instructions, the only way I was going to get it was if I listened to her. She was the teacher after all. I took deep breaths and let it rush over me like she'd said. Clearing my mind of anything that could distract me, more like trying to not think about Trevor. I kept breathing deep, feeling the air fill my lungs up. The oh so familiar tingles in my finger tips started and I grew hopeful once again. I focused on the feeling, allowing
Killian's povI was busy cleaning up the mess my mother and I had made when Roman walked in, visibly cringing at the sight of blood. Weak little bitch, that's why his mate left him behind. "What do you want?" I sneered, I didn't have a reason to hate him, I just did, I hated weak men. Not only did he lose his mate, he was failing to find her as well. If I were Josy, I'd celebrate my freedom from this omega male, he didn't even deserve to be called a beta male, he was at the bottom of the food chain. "Your mother sent me to inform you that you are to join us this time, with your friends" he said, looking away from the blood, punk. What he said though did peak my interest. My mother would never send me out if there wasn't something promising. "Oh, you actually found something this time?" I asked, quite pleased and surprised. For once he brought back valuable information. "Yes, we suspect that they're somewhere in the west with the princess and I had a..." I cut him off as he was fi
Trevor's povAfter thirty minutes of rest, we decided to continue our search, which was starting to look a little fruitless. Yes, we hadn't been out here for long but in our wolf form, we managed to cover a lot of ground. Approximately a week's travel by human form so we were a bit away from the pack. But none of it meant nothing because we still had no clue where she could be. "Guys, we need to rethink our plan" I said through the link as I slowed down to a stop, making the others stop as well. "As much as I hate to admit it, you're right, we're not getting anywhere like this" uncle Mika said with a sigh, surprising all of us. "At this rate, we'll run across the country" Wade said and I nodded my head in agreement. "We need to figure out what to do, we can't keep running blind" I said as they all seemed to agree. "Let's not forget that we're dealing with witches, they could be right under our nose" Cole said, making me think back to the one that was following us. What if his jo
Mia's povI stayed by her side unmoving, even when Ryan came with coffee, telling me he can watch her while I rest. I just couldn't leave her, not when she was hurt because of me. How did I even do that? Was my magic really unstable? If so, then it was dangerous. Not just for Josy but for everyone around me, the entire coven. The pack wouldn't be safe with me there. I really needed to get my shit together. "Please wake up soon" I said, guilt washing over me in waves, I needed her to wake up so I could tell her just how sorry I am. I should have listened to her instead of letting my selfish desires cloud my mind. "She'll be okay, she just needs to rest" Violet said and I had to find a little comfort in that. I had almost shit myself when the healer said she'd also suffered a head injury causing a concussion but she was able to heal it and all that was left was for her to sleep it all off. "You're going to drop off of that chair or give yourself back ache if you don't move from ther
Killian's pov"I don't know who you are but coming here with rogues was a bad idea" she said, making my smile broaden. "Coming here was a great idea, I've been looking for you Mia" I said, watching different emotions swim in her eyes as I confirmed that I indeed knew her. We were close once, when we were children and I was quite protective of her. Funny how I was going to be the one to kill her."I only want you, the others, I'll let my mother decide what to do with them. So, you either surrender yourself or I kill you along with everyone here" I said, deciding to play a little before ending every miserable soul here . "How do you plan on killing me? you're outnumbered" she said but quickly grew unsettled when my smile turned into a smirk. "Outnumbered, yes but let's not fool ourselves here cousin, none of these people are warriors and are definitely not a match for my friends" I said spreading my arms out, signalling my friends to show themselves. I saw the colour drain from her
