Kazia

Iris kept regarding me with a mixture of curiosity and concern, with her eyes searching mine for answers as we stood in the corridor of the Pet's quarters.

"So what brought you out of your room, Kazia?" Iris inquired, her voice laced with genuine curiosity.

"I thought you weren't feeling well and I honestly wasn’t expecting to catch you out here, roaming when you should be resting up," she added.

A soft sigh escaped my lips as I leaned against the wall, seeking a momentary respite from the weight of my own thoughts. "I was feeling rather bored, Lady Iris. Being cooped up in that room, isolated from the world and even proper sunlight, was driving me to the brink of madness. I needed some fresh air to get myself together again and I also wanted to take it as a chance to explore this palace and know my way around," I explained.

A flicker of worry passed over Iris' face as she listened to my explanation. "I understand the restlessness, Kazia, but you must be cautious, kid. You

    Kavan As I sat in the grand chamber surrounded by my council members, my mind drifted, consumed by thoughts of Kazia, my mate. Knowing that she existed and that I had to deal with being separated from her, weighed heavily upon my heart, and I longed for the day when I could see and hold her in my arms once more. Lost in my reverie, I paid little attention to the discussions unfolding around me.Leo, one of my council members, stood tall, his voice filled with frustration. He spoke at length, his words a blur in my distracted state. It was only when Jason, my ever-vigilant Beta, tapped me lightly and sent a telepathic message through our mind link that I snapped back to reality."Kavan, you need to focus," Jason's voice echoed in my mind. "The council is discussing important matters."Blinking away the remnants of my daydreams, I turned my attention to Leo, his brows furrowed in irritation. Realizing my lapse, I cleared my throat and asked him to repeat his statement. Leo let out an

    Kavan Jason and I went quickly through the palace's labyrinthine halls after the heated council meeting. The day's debates weighed heavily on my shoulders, yet a flicker of resolve blazed inside me and I needed a minute to gather my thoughts and resolve.I pulled through the old wooden door of my office, the creaking hinges disturbing the calm. Stepping inside, the space provided a haven away from prying eyes and judgemental gazes. The warm flicker of lighting produced dancing shadows on the walls, creating a peaceful environment that contrasted with the turmoil in my head.Jason's piercing gaze followed me as I moved further into the room, his eyes filled with curiosity."Kavan," Jason started, his voice concerned, "why were you so distracted during the meeting? Your thoughts appeared to be elsewhere,"I hesitated for a time, my gaze probing his face. How could I explain the never-ending thoughts that were starting to devour my every waking moment? "Take a guess, my friend," I sa

    Kazia A whirlwind of emotions coursed through me as I stood impatiently in front of the pet quarters. Meeting Iris had given me a glimpse of hope and piqued my interest in Murad's pets. It was time to break out from my self-imposed solitude and start interacting with others for my own good.The door stood in front of me, separating the comfortable bounds of my isolation from the possibilities that lurked on the other side. I took a deep breath and pushed the door open, bracing myself for what could possibly happen and how I would be received.My eyes examined the familiar yet strange surroundings as I went into the passageway. This wasn't my first time here, but the last time I was here, I was still fresh to the notion of being a pet, and looking around wasn't something that piqued my interest. The pet's quarters alone were unexpectedly larger than I had anticipated, with separate rooms allotted to each pet, guaranteeing a sense of seclusion; as a result, I had only caught glimps

    Kazia As we walked through the dimly lit corridors, my heart pounded in my chest, with anxiety coursing through my veins. I followed the enigmatic woman closely, my steps tentative and my expression etched with fear. The fact that I was being brought beyond the Pet's quarters without Murad's permission further added to my anxiety. I wasn't sure whether following along with this woman was the correct thing to do while knowing that I may get in big trouble. Finally, after what felt like forever walking to an unknown destination, we arrived inside a room that was utterly unfamiliar to me, making me even more nervous. The lady pushed the door open, and I hesitantly stepped inside, my eyes scanning the room for any signs of danger, just in case something crazy was about to happen. Once we were inside, she locked the door behind us, leaving me feeling trapped and vulnerable to whatever the lady in front of me could do to me. We walked in further and then she motioned for me to ta

    Kazia Lady Agrippina's gaze lingered on me, her eyes moving from my head to my feet, studying me intently. The silence between us grew heavy, and I found myself growing more curious about the reason behind this private meeting. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, she spoke."Kazia dear, you are correct about there being a reason I brought you to this room," Lady Agrippina said, her voice carrying a hint of solemnity. "When I arrived in front of the lounge, I overheard Portia speaking ill of you, and I noticed the reactions of some of the other pets weren't exactly pleasant either. The atmosphere wasn't welcoming, and even though I usually don't get involved in such petty matters, I didn't quite like the negative energy toward you," she explained. Her words caught me off guard cause I hadn't expected that a person like Lady Agrippina would want to intervene on my behalf. The fact that she had overheard the disparaging remarks from Portia and seemed genuinely bothered by th

    Third Person Pov Kavan and Jason left the palace of Silver Crest Pack and walked through the deep forest as the morning mist clung to the leaves. Their sharp senses alert to any signals of danger allowed them to go through the maze-like jungle with hardly any sound from their feet. Jason's stomach was in knots with each step they took, and he was unable to get rid of it. He had always been the one to be careful and the voice of reason, so he was baffled by the risks that Kavan was ready to take despite knowing what the consequences could be. He gave his friend a glance as his amber eyes glistened with worry, and even though he could see the determination in Kavan's eyes, he still didn't think it was ideal to go through with it. "Kavan, I still don't think this is a good idea," Jason whispered, his voice worried. "We're going into enemy territory without a plan." It's dangerous."Kavan cast a sidelong glance towards Jason, his roughly tied brown hair gleaming in the warm sunlight

    Kavan As Jason and I ate, the discussions surrounding us became a symphony of voices, each person's voice lost in the noise of the restaurant. Amidst the noise, a group of men at a nearby table drew our attention. Their loud laughing and seemingly passionate discussion invaded our quietness, and it also kinf of piqued our interest since we had nothing better to do for now. I exchanged a knowing look with Jason, considering there might be something important worth hearing. We moved in closer, seeming to be casually interested while quietly listening in on their talk. Their voices cut through the noise of the restaurant, with their words becoming clearer with each passing instant."...and can you believe it? Our mate Greg is working in the palace now," one of the men boasted, a note of pride lacing his voice. "Lucky bastard, I tell ya. He's got it made."I focused my attention on their conversation, my senses alert to any mention of any possible critical information. The fact that th

    Kavan Greg's eyes darted with uncertainty as he pondered my request, his wariness evident in his tensed posture. I could sense that he was really contemplating on whether or not he should listen to us but knowing very well how greedy the mind could be, I knew for a fact that there was no way he wasn't going to hear us out first before dismissing us. Finally, he sighed, resignation flickering in his gaze."Fine," Greg relented, his voice laced with caution. "But we need to find a more secluded spot to speak. We can't afford any prying ears and I would also prefer to avoid being seen with you strangers," he said, obvious trying to protect himself. I nodded in agreement, recognizing the wisdom in his words. We couldn't risk our conversation being overheard and since it was going to be obvious that Jason and I don't belong here, it would be better for Greg's sake and ours if we weren't seen together. Greg led the way, his steps purposeful as he guided us to a quiet corner behind t

For years, our existence revolved around Murad's whims. Now, we have the opportunity to shape our own destinies."Elena, ever the observant one, interjected, "I wonder about the other pets in Murad's palace. What happened to them after his downfall?

She was never yours to begin with, Murad. Your mark means nothing to her, and it means nothing to me."With a primal roar, Murad lunged at Kavan, his claws extended like deadly talons.
