Kiara POV A deep growl erupted to the right of me reminding me Jeff was in the room. I looked at him and put my hand up to stop him from saying anything or doing anything rash. “It’s my decision Jeff, you don’t own me and my decisions” I said full of confidence while squinting my eyes at him. Who does he think he is? To be honest I’m not fully on board with this whole mate thing. I get we were made for each other by the Almighty Moon Goddess but I never signed up to be told what I can and cannot do. I’m my own person and I will not allow someone else to dictate my life for me. Not anymore. He looked at me shocked with wide eyes like I just slapped him across the face. I looked at my aunt Karina and she had a smug smirk across her face and her arms across her chest. “ Well it’s settled then! We will leave you two to say your goodbyes” Aunt Karina said while turning to walk out the front door of the log cabin. When she opened the door their stood a confused Trevor with his knuckles out
Jeff POVWe were escorted all the way back through the secret passage. Once we got back to the entrance and exited it, the passage immediately closed behind us. I turned to look back at the entrance and it looked as if there was nothing ever there. “Guess they aren’t big on goodbyes either” said Trevor. I turned to my left and there stood Trevor with a smirk on his face. “let’s go before I try to punch my way through this mountain back to my mate” I told him. “Alright, don’t gotta tell me twice, shit I’m shocked you even left her there. I don’t know if I could have done the same as you man” Trevor said while walking through the small forest back to our SUV. ‘You left our mate’ Alec grumbled ‘you heard what she said to us, if we would have forced her to leave she would have never accepted being our mate. We can’t help her with her magic like they can, you know that’ I felt Alec recede to the back of my mind. He wasn’t happy with leaving Kiara behind, neither was I, but I really had no
Jeff POV As soon as the plane touched down we both quickly made our way to the door. It opened and we both shifted without hesitation. I shook my fur out and we were gone. Blaze, Trevor’s wolf struggled to keep up with me but I didn’t care, neither did Alec. I needed to get there to help my pack. I prayed to the moon goddess we weren’t too late. ‘we need to sneak up on them. You go left and I’ll go right, we will meet in the middle. Remember to come up down wind so they won’t smell you’ I mind linked to Trevor. His wolf nodded and we both split up. As I approached the pack I could smell the strong smell of death, Vampires were definitely still around here. When I reached the edge of the tree line I stopped. Ahead of me in an open field there I saw my father on his knees bloodied and my mother and sister being held feet away from him by a group of Vampires. Where was the rest of the pack? ‘Trevor I found Emily in the clearing’ I began but before I could finish there was a black wolf
TWO MONTHS LATERJeff’s POV “WHERE THE FUCK COULD HE HAVE TAKEN HER!” I screamed with spit flying out , while looking at my Beta Trevor . Since my father was killed I was made Alpha and of course I appointed Trevor as my Beta. It had been two months since the attack on my pack. My father was killed and my mother was taken. No traces of them had been found and no demands had been made. “It’s still not certain yet Alpha. I have multiple teams out searching for both of them. I’m planning on sending two more today.” “I don’t care if you have to go searching your damn self. Bring my mother home!” I yelled at Trevor. “yes Alpha” he nodded then quickly left the room. Ever since my father died and my mom was taken I haven’t been able to control my temper. Goddess I wish my mate was here with me. I missed her scent that would calm me and entice me at the same time . I wish we could have completed the mating process. How did I get blessed with such a stubborn mate? By now everyone knew I had fo
KIARAS POV It’s been two months now since I arrived here at the White Haven Coven. Though, it definitely has felt longer. My first week here was tough trying to just fit in. There are definitely some witches and warlocks that made it their life’s mission to make me miserable. What gets me the most is that it’s mainly adults that have an issue with me. Aunt Karina told me to ignore them. That they are just jealous because I can tap into magic no one else can without using dark magic which would also cause them to lose their powers a lot faster. Not for me because dark magic was used to create me, so I get all the benefits and as far as we know, none of the downfall. Eventually, I lost my temper and kind of lit someone on fire. It was put out before any real damage could have been done. Regardless, since then everyone tends to keep their distance except for one girl, Viviana. She is the daughter to my mother’s ex fiancé. She is a little shorter than me with dark brown hair, bright blue
TREVOR POV Man I really wish Kiara would just come back already, Jeff has been on edge since we left her with the coven. Lucky me I get the brunt of it all. I thought as I left his office after getting chewed out once again for still not finding his mother. It’s not like we aren’t trying. The Vampire King managed to cover his tracks up and keep her hidden. It makes me wonder if he had witches working for him. It’s the only thing that would make sense I thought as I made my way down the corridor to the staircase. When I reached it I noticed Michelle making her way up “Alpha in his office” she asked me “uumm yeahh” I said confused. She continued walking past me making her way to the Alphas office. Whatever, I’m not dealing with her. She knows by now her attempts to get the Alpha to mate with her are useless. Poor girl has no idea what she’s walking into right now. Oh well, her fault . She knows he has a mate and everyone knows what the mate bond does to us wolves. It’s even ten times
EIGHT MONTHS LATER JEFF POV These past eight months have been grueling and the most challenging I’ve ever had to deal with. No vampire attacks had happened but for some reason wolves kept coming up missing. Not just from our pack either. It was happening to packs across the country. Rumors of some turning up weeks later, only to attack their own pack as a rabid. My Beta was searching high and low for a witch that would help us. The issue was no witch wanted to help. They all refused either out of fear of the Vampire King or the fear of using black magic and losing their powers all together. I sat at my desk as I contemplated what to do next. Suddenly my wolf Alec perked up and started running circles in my head. I caught a faint scent that was all too familiar. It sent chills down my spine and my heart beat picked up. It had been ten long rough months since I’ve smelt that beautiful lilac smell. I jumped from my seat and ran to the door and threw it open. There stood my beautiful mat
Kiara POV “No Kiara I won’t let you perform dark magic” Jeff said jumping up from the couch, brows furrowed staring down at me. I crossed my arms trying to push my anger back. I could feel my ears turning red. Who the hell did he think he was telling ME no. “I will do the ritual not because only do I want to help, but I’m the only one who can without having the consequences” I said through gritted teeth. He still thought I was that helpless girl he pulled out of the fire. I had changed not only physically but mentally. Anya and I were now one, and I had full control over my powers. I can do all the dark magic without any repercussions, that we know of yet. We were still unsure of what the long term affects of using too much dark magic could eventually do to me. Jeff didn’t need to know that though. That was my burden to bare. Jeff looked at me curiously with one eyebrow up and sat back down on the couch. “Look I was made with dark magic, so that means I’m already intertwined with it.
