Kiara's POV
Before I knew it we were pulling into the student parking lot at Paramore High school. Instantly I spotted Kelsey and her goons at the back of the parking lot sitting on Taylor’s truck laughing hysterically, probably just making fun of people that were walking by. All of those fools passed their time making fun of who ever they felt like whenever they felt like. Luckily we found a spot on the opposite side of where they were so I might just get to have a good day. I put my new phone on silent and stuck in by book bag. I looked at Ketzia as she put the car in park and she turned it off. She returned my look and we both smiled at each other “ Alright girly let’s go fuck today up”. “YES let’s do it, nothing will bring my mood down today!” . As I was getting out the car I glanced over to see where Kelsey and her goons were but I only saw Taylor standing there with Jack and Jeff was approaching them. I didn’t spot Kelsey and her goons until it was too late and they were already approaching the side of the car I was getting out of from the front end. Kelsey, Ashley, and Raven came to a stop and looked me up and down with disgust and a glint of hatred coming from their eyes. Usually I would try to avoid these girls like the plague as they tend to play dirty. Like stealing my clothes from the girls locker room while I showered, that was definitely an eventful day. They even managed to put a big gumball in my long hair once. Today was not the day, today was my day and no dumb batch was going to ruin it. I looked back at them with disdain and mustered up all my courage, “what the hell do you 3 bitches want? I’m in no mood for your childish antics so if you don’t mind taking your stench back to where it came from it would definitely be appreciated, tthhhaannkkk youuuu byyyeeee”. All 3 girls jaws dropped at the audacity of my words. I was always one to turn the other cheek and ignore what these girls would say, but something was different in me. I can’t put my finger on it but its like my fear of the normal high school bs disappeared when I got up today. I felt more confidence than I’ve ever had, and I was not about to let these 3 ruin it either. Today was the day I take a stance and fight back. I looked over at Ketzia as she had started to laugh hysterically at what I said to the girls. “ You might want to close you’re mouth before you catch some flies" Ketzia managed to say between her cackles. In that instant all 3 closed their mouths and turned bright red. Kelsey opened her mouth to say something in return but before she could I pushed threw all 3 of them and Ketzia followed me to our first class. “ It’s about damn time you stood up to those 3 beaches Kiara, that was so awesome. I don’t know what’s gotten into you but I fucking love it girly.” Ketzia reached for me and held my arm as she expressed how proud of me she was. To be honest I was too, I shocked myself and I am definitely loving my new confidence. When we got to our lockers Ketzia was going on about the upcoming dance. I open my locker and confetti and streamers pop out with a big card saying Happy Birthday. I looked at Ketzia and she put her hands in the air shaking her head saying “it wasn’t me I swear". “It was me" a deep voice from behind me said. I didn’t even need to turn, I already new who it was. “Jeff eerr uummm thank you I guess, how did you know it was my birthday?” I honestly did not remember ever mentioning it. He shrugged his shoulders “ I assist in the office sometimes on my free period, so I may or may not have taken a peak at some student records, sshhh don’t tell anyone" he answered as low as he could. I smiled at him and shook my head. Jeff was pretty handsome, he was the most popular senior boy and was 17. He stood at a solid 5’9, dirty blonde hair that was short on the sides and longer at the top. He had deep blue eyes that any girl would get lost in. He was very muscular for his age, with a chiseled chest and a strong jaw to match. His muscles always popped out in anything he wore. I was looking at Jeff as he was saying something about the upcoming dance but something caught my eye behind Jeff. There was a dark figure down the hall unmoving as crowds of kids passed by it. Nobody else seemed to notice but me. I kept staring at the dark figure as it head snapped up and came eye to eye with me. Those glowing red eyes met mine and my breathing started to go crazy. It felt like the walls were closing in on me and all I could see were those eyes looking back at me. As I started to lose more and more control of my breathing he smiled at me with the most devious smile I had ever seen. At that point my breathing was uncontrollable, I felt waves of intense pains I’ve never felt before. My heart was on fire and I felt like I was dieing. “KIARA, KIARA WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING? I could hear Jeff and Ketzia screaming at me and each other but it felt like it was so far away. I wanted to scream out to them and tell them their was a monster behind them, but I was frozen in place. My body defying everything my brain was telling it. Something in me told me to fight, fight to stay awake, fight to save my clueless friends of whatever that figure was. Suddenly the figure looked shocked and instantly disappeared. That’s when I heard it, dead silence in what was once a busy hallway with teenagers trying to get to class. Everyone was frozen in place eyes wide open, shocked and confused of what was happening in front of their faces.
Ketzia POVI was shocked at what was happening to my best friend, what the crap was happening anyways?? One minute Jeff’s about to ask the clueless Kiara out to the dance the next thing she hyperventilating with fists clenched fixated on something behind Jeff. I only see teens rushing to get to class. Kiara’s breathing got worse and her hair started to stand up like she was covered in static electricity. I yelled her name but she was too fixated on something it’s like she didn’t hear me at all. “KIARA, KIARA WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING?” I screamed at no one in particular. Jeff answered in a loud panicked voice “ I don’t know but whhhaattt---" Jeff became silent and his jaw dropped to the ground That’s when I saw it Kiara had one bright emerald green eye and one glowing red eye. They stayed like that what seemed like hours but was only seconds. Suddenly Kiara’s hair calmed and her eyes changed back to that normal gree
Kiara’s POVIt took us about 30 minutes to get to meemaws, as she lives just on the edge of the town that meets with the forest. We used to come here a lot as kids playing hide and seek in the forest. I looked at the old tree swing we used to spend hours taking turns on. Meemaws house was a tiny 2 bedroom 2 baths little cabin. Outside she had a beautiful herb garden right off to the right of her creaky old porch. The cabin was painted white but could definitely use a fresh coat as the paint was chipping. As we both get out the car we both were greeted by the all too familiar voice of meemaw. “ Hey girl’s, you’re right on time. Come on in and have some tea with me. We have tons to talk about Kiara" she said looking straight at me. “ Meemaw how did you know we were coming?” Ketzia asked curiously. “ Hush child, I’ve told you before and I’ll tell you one more time. We come from a long line a witches. Whether you like to belie
Kiara’s POVJust as I opened the door I got this weary feeling in the pit of my stomach. It was quiet in the cabin which made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I started walking to kitchen and was hit with a metallic like smell. And this other very distinct smell , the smell of death. As I got closer to the kitchen I’m met with what looks like kool-aid on the floor but it was thicker than that and way darker. I turned the corner slowly and there I see her meemaw laying on the floor in a pool if her own blood. Someone had sliced her throat. I gasped and covered my mouth with my hand. I heard a muffled cry and looked up. Right in front of me was my best friend, tears streaming down her face and a hand over her mouth and a knife at her neck. The culprit was that same dark figure with glowing red eyes. I could see those teeth I dreamt so much about and in that second I knew who this was. It was my father. “ mmmm you look like your mother Kkkiii
Jeff’s POVI was in mid conversation trying to explain to my father, the Alpha about what happened at school with Kiara. He was very interested in how a supernatural went so long undetected living with the humans. That’s when I heard it, well we all heard it. It was the most piercing scream and it shocked the whole pack . It made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I had a horrible gut feeling something bad was happening. That scream, that was my mate. I looked at my father and it was like he knew what I was thinking without saying it. He nodded his head and I ran and instantly shifted. My mate needed me and she needed me now. I just hoped I wasn’t too late. I saw the flames coming from the entrance of the forest. It must be the old witches house. As I came up the little cabin was engulfed in Flames and one wall looked like someone was thrown straight threw. My mates scent was getting weaker, I needed to find her and fast. Jackson wasted no time runni
Nanna’s POV I looked out the window to see if that was Kiara finally getting home. I see the headlights pass by. Not the girls. What could be keeping those 2? “Anything yet hunny?” “ no and she’s not picking up her cell phone and neither is Ketzia. I also got a call from school today, Kiara didn’t show up for class”. Suddenly headlights pull into the driveway. ‘Well it’s about time she shows up’ I thought to myself. We looked on waiting for Kiara to come out of the car running it with a thousand excuses , but that didn’t happen. Instead the car turned their bright highbeam headlights on which made us both squint. “ What the heck!” I yelled looking from my husband to the car in the driveway. My husband was unmoving and stared straight at the car. Still staring straight ahead he spoke, “ I don’t think that’s Kiara, go get the weapons now”. I moved quickly after the words immediately registered in my mind. As I ran to the safe in our room I prayed to the goddess Kiara was okay. It was de
Jeff’s POVI pulled up screeching to a halt right up into Kiara’s grandparent’s gravel driveway with 2 other blacked out SUVs close behind. It was completely pitch black , even the street lamps in front of their house were out “Strange, eyes peeled men, something is definitely off" “ You smell that?” Trevor my soon to be beta asked loudly. I took a big whiff as the wind slowly picked up “BLOOD". We picked up our pace towards the house. All the noise I could hear was my own heart beat. It was so loud it drowned out the sound of us 13 wolves walking quickly up the long gravel driveway. The smell of blood getting stronger with each step we take closer to the house. At this point I’m certain this will not be a good outcome. My poor mate has been put through so much tragedy all at the hands of her sadistic father. Alec my wolf snarls in my head ‘ I will rip his fucking throat out, he’s done too much to our mate` ‘don’t you mean we?’ I asked my wolf but he said nothing in return as we reach
KIARA’S POVJeff told me my grandparents were safe and I felt an instant relief release from my heart. I have no idea how I would handle losing them all because of me. He told me they were staying in a safe house out of state, and I couldn’t risk visiting them in case my father tried to follow me there. I wish I could call them but they are off grid so it’s impossible at the moment. I needed to tell Nana about Ketzia and meemaw. She will be crushed to hear about their deaths. My eyes watered as I thought back to that moment. The fear in Ketzias eyes, and she still worried about my safety. The blood, there was so much blood. How could my father be so evil? I was so enthralled in thought I didn’t realize Jeff was talking about my mother’s coven. He wanted to go find what was left of her coven to see if someone could help me control my powers. “ I need to come with you” I insisted. There was no way I was going to stay here and destroy rooms in my sleep and Jeff get to go out searching fo
Jeff’s POV As soon as we boarded the jet I busied myself with some paper work. I didn’t even know what to say to Kiara at this point. Did she really not feel anything at all? Her supernatural side came out even more, so I’m sure she must feel something. ‘ggggrrrrrr why don’t we just claim our mate and be done with all this , what’s with all the damn games?’ Alec growled. ‘woaaah calm down Alec even if we told her that we are mates. I will not allow you to claim her until she is ready.’ I responded to him. I really don’t like how aggressive he is getting lately. Ever since I found her in the house with flames all around her. I could feel his panic when we saw her laying there, somehow the flames not even touching her. But yet still engulfing the rest of the cabin and dead bodies. She looked so fragile but, when I picked her up, I could feel this power seeping out of her. I swear if I didn’t know any better I would think she was an Alpha wolf with the aura she was putting off that da
