Kayla’s POV

Steam rose from the tub as I sank deeper into the water, letting it wrap around me like a cocoon. I thought a bath would help but I still felt as shitty as before.

A knock on the bathroom door pulled me out of my thoughts. Azel stepped inside with a tray of food, her eyes twinkling with something and I could immediately tell she had some new gossip to spill.

“Anything interesting today?” I asked, though I already knew where this conversation would lead.

“Oh, just the usual palace chatter,” Azel said, setting the tray down on the side table. “You have been through so much, we need you well and rested.” Azel tried to shift the conversation.

“No Azel it's fine. whatever you have to say I can take it” I said, sinking deeper into the tub so only my head was on the surface, my hair spreading through the water like tentacles.

Azel walked up to the bath, splashing water, unable to meet my gaze before speaking.

“It's Lily”

I stiffened, my fingers gripping the edge of the tub, guess

    Kayla's POV“Kayla you're acting like a child.” Klaus calIed out behind me stopping me in my tracks.I never thought I could feel so much anger that I couldn’t breathe, I looked around, hoping this was a dream seeing Raymond changing out of his clothes. He looked like he didn't want any smoke and letting us deal with the issue ourselves.“You're unbelievable, Klaus” I snarled, crossing my arms.“I'm just saying you're acting a bit irrational here”Irrational?Irrational??It took a lot not to cross the room and punch him so hard he swallowed his words.“I'm sorry I find it a bit hurtful the only reason you're alive is because I risked my fucking life for you and you don't give a damn, rather you're accusing me!”“We're talking about a baby Kayla, the kid is innocent in all of this” Klaus retorted like I was bothering him.“Yes but I'm not, right? I'm the one who forged DNA reports. You are beyond reasoning with and I have better things to do” I turned around to leave but I stopped tur

    Kayla’s POVThe tears started falling before I even realized it. My chest tightened, each sob coming out as a painful gasp for air.“She left me there, she abandoned me” I croaked out, my heart feeling heavy.“She did it to protect you,” Silver whispered in my mind, her voice gentle, like a comforting breeze against my skin.I wanted to believe that. I had to. But the ache in my chest was unbearable. For so long, I’d believed my parents were dead, that I’d been spared from some type of accident but that wasn't the case.She had left me at their doorstep, she took my wolf and left me vulnerable,But at what cost?A sob escaped me, the kind that leaves your throat sore. I could taste the salt of my tears on my lips, and feel them slip down my cheeks and onto my skin. My hands shook as I wiped at my face, but the tears wouldn’t stop. My chest heaved, desperate to catch a breath, but each inhale only brought more memories.“Why didn’t she tell me?” I whispered, my voice barely audible ove

    *Kayla’s point of view* Recently, life has been fucking me over in so many ways than one. It was as if I had a personal beef with life and it just wouldn't give me a fucking break. I am a she-wolf and you'd think I had the good stuff but you'd be sorely mistaken. I lived under the oppressive rule of step siblings who despised everything about me. They hated everything, even the very air I breathe because of fabricated reasons and lowered my status down to their slave. My blood sister and their parents died in a ghastly accident and they blamed me for it. Apparently, to them I was bad luck and an unfortunate person that brought gloom and doom everywhere I went despite the numerous times that I cried about my innocence. The most pathetic thing was that there was nothing I could do about it. I was just an adopted child raised by their parents who treated me fairly well considering the fact my late mother had an affair with their father. Now, this is where it gets really b

    I moved my head away from his lips, stopping him from going further. “What’s going on? Why….” The man said as he noticed my withdrawal from him. I gave him no response.Realizing the reality of what I have gotten into, I shook my head in regret and stood up.I put on my discarded clothes with shaky hands from the floor. The man was still speaking to me but I didn’t hear him at all, a thousand thoughts were buzzing in my head.I walked to the door and opened it.“Wait…” he said from behind me as he fumbled with his underwear but I didn’t look back.I rushed back home, sneaking into my room as tears poured down my cheeks. It was not enough that my sister had taken my fated mate, now i just had a one night stand with a stranger under the Influence of alcohol. I had kept myself for a long time so I could give my pride to the one I love, my mate.I felt shattered as ran straight to my room with nothing but regret and shame as I sat down alone in the room.The room was simple, with a smal

    I woke up abruptly due to a loud bang coming from somewhere in my vicinity. My whole body felt heavy and tired. I laid on my bed, trying to gather myself together so I could stand up and begin my chores. Immediately the door burst open and my step brother strode in. “Look who we have here. If it’s not the devil herself.” he said in a mocking tone. I was used to my stepsisters maltreating me but never will I ever get used to it coming from my step brother, Josh. I was an abused and frail she-wolf, living under the oppressive rule of my step siblings. They despised me deeply, especially the eldest sister and have turned me into the pack's slave, blaming me for the death of our parents. My parents died in a tragic accident on the way back from my high school graduation, together with my sister. Both my sister and our parents died aside me who survived the car accident unharmed. After the death of my sister and step parents, my step siblings and the rest of the pack saw me as bad

    After the herbalist informed about my pregnant status, I decided to go to the nearby clinic to be sure I was truly pregnant.The big stone walls of the castle felt like they were closing in on me as I got back with different thoughts clouding my head. I could feel the eyes of my three step-siblings as they stared at me from across the huge hall as I walked in. I knew one of them would ask where I had been.Sure enough, as I reached the top of the stairs, my step brother’s voice called out to me at the same time, their voices sharp and accusing.“where have you been?"I took a deep breath and turned to face the three of them, getting ready for the argument that would no doubt ensue.But before I could say anything, my step brother eyes saw the crumpled piece of paper I was holding in my hand. I tried to hide it behind my back, but he was too quick.With a swift move, he walked up to me, snatched the paper from my hand and unfolded it.My insides twisted with dread as I witnessed their

    The Lycan King's POVI woke up as the first rays of dawn filtered through the heavy curtains of my chamber. Stretching out, an uneasy feeling gnawed at the edges of my consciousness, something didn't feel right. I swung my legs over the side of the bed and stood, running a hand through my tousled hair. The events of the past few days replayed in my mind, centering around a particular servant girl who had unexpectedly captured my attention.Kayla.I couldn't shake the memory of our night together. She was different from any other woman I had known, and despite my better judgment, I found myself drawn to her. Her vulnerability had awakened a protective instinct within me, a feeling I wasn't accustomed to. But it was more than just that. There was an undeniable connection, a bond that had formed, and I needed to understand it.I recalled overhearing her stepfamily confronting her about being pregnant. The possibility of the child being mine was high, as I remembered being the one to

    Kayla’s point of view.I stood there, trembling, as the Lycan King's words echoed through the great hall. He had just told everyone that he was the father of my baby. I couldn't believe it."What?!" Lily and Josh yelled at the same time.Everyone in the room started whispering and looking at me. I felt my face get hot with embarrassment.The king walked over to me and put his hand on my shoulder. "Kayla is carrying my child," he said again, his voice strong and sure. "I will not allow anyone to harm her or the baby."Lily's face turned red with anger. "But... but how could you?" she sputtered. "I thought... I thought we...""Silence," the king growled. Lily shut her mouth quickly, but I could see the hatred in her eyes.Josh stepped forward, looking hurt and angry. "How could you do this to us?" he asked the king. "She's just a servant! And after everything her family did to ours!"I wanted to sink into the floor. I hated being the center of all this drama."That's enough," the king

    Klaus' POVThose few days in the jail cell didn't seem so bad now. Being reappointed as Alpha after Kain made his division and managed to get people on his side wasn't an easy journey and now there was another baby on the way.It was one I didn't expect but one I couldn't turn my back on. I knew Kayla was right and sooner or later I would find a reason why trusting Lily was a bad idea but I was hurting Kayla in the process.Hopefully, this was all a game Lily was trying to play but funny enough if it came to that, I won't get mad but rather I’d be relieved.“Your majesty, good morning” Lily wore a long velvet red gown that stopped below her ankles, she looked beautiful truly, Lily was a sight to behold.“You called for me Alpha” she continued since I remained quiet I blinked back to the present, my eyes narrowing as I wondered what just happened.“Yes… I ehm we're going to the hospital” I voiced trying to keep my voice steady.The corners of her lips curved into a smile like I asked h

    Kayla's POV“What nonsense is this Lily?” Klaus blurted out in astonishment while I stood frozen like a statue.I was at a loss of words or maybe I was unable to speak because my breath caught in my throat, it felt like my ribs had caged in, squeezing every bit of air out.“I have proof” she continued the torment and brought out a piece of paper from her bag waving it like a flag. Instinctively my hand reached out trembling as I took it from her."This can't be possible," Klaus muttered, his voice low, almost pleading, but it sounded weak. It didn’t even hold the edge I was expecting. He sounded like he didn’t believe it himself.I glanced down, my eyes skimming the bold letters that confirmed it. My heart clenched. I knew they had been together, I had seen it with my own eyes, felt the deep, cutting pain of the mate bond. I could endure all that again. But this? A baby?The floor seemed to tilt beneath me, and I had to steady myself, gripping the paper so tightly that it crinkled und

    Kayla's POVI glared at Raymond, who just rolled his eyes for a moment. I didn't know what to say and I didn't have to as Klaus spoke up.“It's late Kayla, go to bed”“Please,” I whispered, my voice trembling. “I just need to—”“No.” he didn't even let me finish taking my arm and leading me out of the gym. “I'll sleep in your room tonight. I had a long day and my bed is cold”The corners of my lips twitched but I forced down the smile, I was happy he would sleep in tonight but I just wished he would let me learn.Once we got to the room, he helped me change into my nightgown and slid next to me wearing only shorts, his arm wrapped around me, his fingers tracing slow circles on my skin.You’ve been through enough.”“I just—” My throat tightened. “My mother... She told me things. About my wolf, about the people after me.” I turned my head, eyes searching his face in the dim light.His hand stilled for a moment before continuing its path over my arm. “If they come for you, they’ll regre

    Kayla's POV“Please send me back! I still have a lot to ask please”The seer shook her head. “I'm sorry Kayla but I can't, defying the laws of nature always comes with a price. We are not meant to communicate with the dead. You managed to twice, a third time is way too risky.” She stood up, stepping away from my hold and I sighed in defeat as I rubbed at the faint glow still lingering from the rune on my hand.“You can still use whatever she said to help you, what can you recall?”I took a deep breath, the memory of my mother’s voice still echoing in my ears. “She spoke to me about my wolf... about how it's powerful. She said people would come for me because of it.”The Seer’s brows furrowed slightly, her fingers tracing the edges of her table as if deep in thought. “There are a few wolves, very few, whose auras can be stolen. If you carry that power, then it’s no wonder the rogues are after you. They would want it for themselves.”“So, that’s what this is about? They want to take my

    Kayla's POV“Yes, my gift from the pack guards to you so I won’t turn the pack upside down searching for the number of my kid, when she’s just cooking or doing whatever it is you do” he teased and I couldn’t help but smile.“Kids” I corrected, taking the phone out of the box. I looked up and noticed he was nervous. “Kids?” He echoed.“We’re not just having one child” I whispered, pausing for dramatic effect. “We’re having twins.” For a brief second, Klaus was completely still. His breath caught as the realization dawned on him. His eyes widened, shock flickering across his face before a smile slowly spread on his lips.“Twins?” His voice held an unfamiliar excitement, like he couldn’t quite believe it. “Yes, twins! Two lives growing inside me” I replied, trying to sound happy despite my heavy heart. He stepped closer, cupped my face in his hands, his thumb gently brushing my cheek. “You’re carrying two?” He let out a surprised laugh. “We’re having twins!” “There’s more.” His ha

    Kayla's POV “Don't say that Kayla, I should have recognized one of them, I am the reason they came for you," he muttered, almost to himself, his hand curling into a fist by his side. "If I hadn’t—" "You can’t keep doing this," I interrupted, stepping forward. "This isn’t all on you." “It is. I wronged them, and now they want revenge. You’re in the middle because of me." “It wasn’t just about you, they knew things about when I left the pack... about my mother." His brow furrowed, confusion briefly replacing the guilt. I raised my sleeve, revealing the mark on my arm showing him the rune. "One of them recognized this. They mentioned her like they knew she marked me Klaus. This goes deeper than just revenge against you." He stopped pacing, his eyes dropping to the mark on my skin. “Your mother did this?" His voice was low, almost a growl, but I nodded. "She did. It’s complicated, the men didn't hurt me, not physically. They made this chant… I can't explain it but it's not you, Kl
