ADRIANThe doctor finally let me take Milo home the week after. It was beginning to seem like he didn't want me to take him home at all.He kept telling me to come back and finally, I was able to take him home today.He said his throat would take a couple of months to heal which was fine. I knew the extent to which the injury had gone.I was just happy that he was finally coming home today.He however, wasn't happy. I tried to get him to speak to me but he had refused to.When I entered his room this morning, he didn't speak to me and he didn't smile either. So I knew something was wrong, I just didn't know what.I tried speaking to him in the car but he still didn't budge.So I gave it to you and decided to leave it till we got home. There, I would have a better chance of speaking to him.Eventually, we did get home and he got down from the car . I offered to help him get down but he didn't even look at me and he got down himself.Nora came out and he gave her a hug and let her carry
THIRD PERSON POVHank was in a tight situation.Staying up all night to think about how in earth he was going to kill Adrian was taking a toll on him and he couldn't take it any more..He had thought about every way that he could but it wasn't working out. Everything he thought about always ended with him being dead and he couldn't let that happen.He had been thinking about how he would get to Stacy that had been captured by Alpha Adrian. Right now, she was the only one that could help him in this time.But there was no way.There was going to be a meeting tonight because the full moon was tomorrow and for the first time since he joined the Cult, he didn't want to attend a meeting..He knew that they were going to talk about it and it scared him. He has been the one to say that he would be able to kill Adrian but now, he was having issues with it.He didn't have the appetite for food and he couldn't sleep either. With his eyes wide opened, he wondered if he should really give up the
THIRD PERSON POVIt was the day of the Full Moon.The Grandmaster woke up early.Actually, he hadn't been able to sleep at all because he knew that he was one step closer to the grave. In fact, he was already inside it and it was just to cover him up that was left.It was already the day that was his deadline and he hadn't found her yet. He thought he was going to but her wolf hasn't showed up in his radar again and it bothered him.Other special wolves didn't give him headaches like this. Most of the time, before the full moon, they always showed up because their wolf was too eager to come out..But not this one. This one has been very careful right from the start and if not for that chance that they had gotten, they would never have found her at all.He didn't want to say it out loud but he might as well accept defeat. He didn't want to tell his brothers yet but it was the truth.In just a couple of hours, the sun would go down and the moon would come up.That was the time they wer
KAYAWho knew living with witches could be this fun?I woke up in the morning and there was already food on my table. Everything I needed was at my neck and calm and at first, I felt weird about it but now that I've been here for a week, I'm totally enjoying it.Something happened these past few days though. During the night of the full Moon, I hadn't been let out at all throughout the day.Then at night, the witches came to me.“It is time..”My eyes widened as I heard them say that. What did they mean? Were they going to kill me now that they had finally fed me and I was almost as far as a cow?I didn't even want to ask but I had to know..“What do you mean?”“Tonight is the night they plan to take you. So we will be here with you. No matter what they do, they won't get to you.”I didn't understand what they were trying to say.“Wait, who's that? Who are the people coming after me?"“The Cult. It's the night of the Full Moon and you are the prime target so we will stay with you and
KAYA“So what exactly happened after that? Why did the cult position have to be passed down? I mean why couldn't it just be given to someone else?”“Because of the blood that was passed. At the initiation and renewal of their vows to the cult, each of the brothers dropped their blood into a cup and they each drank from it. That covenant that they shared is what hindered them from doing so.”All this was sounding deeper than it was and I just stayed, watching like I didn't understand what was going on.“Okay so if I had a blood tie with one of the members of the cult, why did she choose me to become the special wolf? It doesn't make any sense.”There was nothing that made sense about all this.Claudia spoke up.“She wanted to break the bond. She knew that your father had only two girls and she knew that the cult didn't allow women in so she decided to use this chance to come as the special wolf. Everything that happened was for a reason. Your mother's death, Your father's hatred for yo
KAYAIt had been a week since I came back. Of course, everyone at the pack had seen me and Milo especially was happy.At one point, I thought Nora was the one who missed me the most. It felt so good to be back somewhere that I was appreciated.I didn't feel like an outcast anymore.I'd seen everyone except my arch nemesis. It crossed my mind that I hadn't yet seen her and maybe I shouldn't have thought about that because as soon as I did, our eyes met as she was coming down the stairs and I was sitting in the living room.She looked very surprised and it was obvious that she wasn't expecting me back. She didn't think that I was going to be back of course but I was.I was back and I was here to say.She came down from the stairs and slowly made her way to me.“Nice to see you again.” I greeted her with a smile.”What are you doing here? Does Adrian know you're here? Get out before I call the guards to throw you out.”I laughed and got up from my seat.“Naya , I have to admit. It was a
KAYANora and Allister had come down the stairs too and they were standing behind Adrian.I could feel the sharp blade of the knife against my neck and I was scared. I was actually scared she was going to slice my neck.Where was Lia when you needed her?She only showed up at times when you didn't need her, like when I wanted to take a shower or when I needed to sleep . She didn't understand the concept of privacy and right timing.But I couldn't blame her. She was a wolf.Adrian was looking right into my eyes.His guards were on alert and they were ready to jump her“Tell your guards to stand down! I'll kill her!”From the way she was screaming, I was scared."I noticed that she was slowly moving back and I had to follow her. Where was she going?“Naya, what do you want? Just tell me what you want and I'll give it to you."She laughed and since I was close to her, I could hear how wrong it sounded..“You will give it to me? What if I said I wanted to marry you? Would you be able to
ADRIANI'd been in my office when the guard came in with the report.“Alpha, I had some news and I don't know if it's good news or bad news.”I stopped what I was doing and looked up. That was the first time he would be saying that.Roger was my personal guard and he always went everywhere with me so I didn't understand what he meant by that because he had never said that before..“Tell me what it is and I'll tell you if it's bad or not.”That's when he told me .I slammed my hands on the table and stood up.“What did you say?”Roger took a step back.”I-i said Tom was found dead at the border of his pack with his head cut off.”Tom was dead.. I still couldn't understand what I was hearing . Roger asked to be excused and I dismissed him.“Wait, call Nora for me on your way out."What was I going to do now? And how was I going to handle this?Nora entered with a curious look on her face.”What is going on? Roger said you called for me.”I gestured for her to sit.”Adrian, say somethin
KAYA It was the middle of May. Milo had come back home to spend some time with us. After his coronation, he had left the pack to spend time living as a normal person so that he would understand what it means to live among the people. Adrian didn't like it because he felt like Milo could be learning about the kingdom rather than doing all that but the boy's mind had been set. I could understand where they were both coming from but since it was what he wanted, I couldn't stop him and neither could his father. The only condition Adrian gave him was that he would stay with Roy. If he stayed with Roy, then his heart would be more at peace knowing that he was with someone he trusted. Roy loved the idea of Milo being over and so since the beginning of the year, he had been there. When I told him it was his father's birthday, he knew he had to come back. This time around, we didn't want a big celebration. Although since it was an official holiday, the entire kingdom knew and the
KAYA There was finally time for Milo's coronation. We had been putting it off for so long but now, we were going to make it happen. It had taken me a week to make all preparations because I wanted this to be perfect. I'd sent out the invitations earlier to everyone and made sure everything down to the last detail was ready. Milo was very excited about this and I could see how much this meant to him. He and Adrian had been spending the week together because Adrian said it was part of his hazing ceremony to welcome him into the circle of Kings. Unlike the forest his father had left him in for a week to find for himself, he wanted to do things that he hadn't done with Milo before like fishing and hunting. The party was tonight and I just got a call from the tailor that there had been some issues with the clothes. Milo's clothes to be exact. I didn't want to lose it because I knew I had to find a solution one way or another and I had to find it fast. I hurried over to the
KAYATWO MONTHS LATERMaybe I was the one who was mad. Maybe I was losing it. As soon as the maid told me I ran out of my room and went downstairs. The madness in this house had to stop. I had endured tol much from that bitch and maybe she thought that since I was quiet, I was stupid but not again. The kitchen door was locked just as I thought it would be. “Selena! You stupid bitch! Open the door!” I could hear her moving around inside and she laughed. “Oh, I see they came to report to you again. As I told them, I'll be cooking Adrian's food today. I mean, after all. I'm basically just a second wife.”Second wife?! In what universe?! The maids said that before they woke up, she had locked herself in the kitchen and they couldn't even make breakfast for the twins to take to school. “Are you nuts? This is my house and my kitchen! Open the damn door!” “Why don't you kick it o
KAYA When we got to the grave site, we were amazed because it wasn't your normal six feet. “She was claustrophobic. I don't think it'd be fair to give her a tight grave.” We could understand that and we stayed there with him when he said things to her and told her how much he loved her and missed her. It rained earlier that day so maybe that just made the whole thing gloomier. We went back to the house with the guests. The food has been ready since last night and we just stood in a corner while Roy attended to his guests. The kids had to stay upstairs because we didn't want thtme to be down here. It was only Roy's son that was down here. “Thank you so much for coming, everyone. I really appreciate you for being here. My wife would have been so happy to know that there were many people who actes about her. Its just said that it's only at her death that we had this crowd. I don't really have much to say but I l
KAYAWe couldn't stay with Roy even though we wanted to. Adrian was the King, there was no way that he would not sleep in the house. Well, at least that's what Roy had been trying to tell him for the past hour but it was like everything he said went over his ears. He didn't want to hear any of it. “Roy, this is not just a condolence visit. It's a friendly visit. You've been my friend for years and you don't expect me to go home when you need me. I need to stay here with you.” Roy looked drained. I didn't like that Adrian was arguing with him but then again, Adrian wasn't going to stop until he got what he wanted. He turned to me for help and all I could do was just stare at him. “Kay, please say something.”I didn't want to tell him not to worry because there was nothing that he was going to say that would make Adrian change his mind but I didn't say that. I also know that it was a technique to take Roy's mind
KAYAThe morning came with bad news. I was still in bed when Lorian came to wake me up that Adrian and Nora were going out. At first, I didn't understand what he was talking about because I was so sleepy. Adrian had kept me up late last night talking and talking and making sure that I had forgiven him. I picked up my robe and ran out of the room because he was dragging me out. Luckily, I got outside before the car drove off. “Adrian, what's going on? Is everything okay?”He turned around to look at me. “Roys wife is dead. We just got a call now. We're going there to see him. I didn't want to wake you up.”The words couldn't form in my mouth. I just stayed there and stared at him. Roy's wife is dead. “Go, I'll meet up with you later.”As the car drove off, I just watched it go. In the end, the cancer had won. Gosh, I couldn't imagine what he would be going through right now.
ADRIANIt was like she had developed some kind of power because with the way she was walking, I found it so hard to catch up with her. Even when I tried to hold her hand, she wouldn't let me. “Kay, please wait. Let me speak to you.”If I couldn't hold her hand, I would have to hold her legs because I could let her use anger to ruin this. “What’s the whole point of talking? Do you know how long we've been talking for? There's no use. There's only action now.”Thankfully, Nora appeared since we had passed her room and she had heard the noise. “What is going on?”I had to tell her through a mind link since I couldn't risk anyone else hearing what I had said. The walls had ears. “I knew something was up with the way they just appeared out of nowhere. Where did you get a gun?”I wondered when she had seen a gun in my hand and then I realized that she was speaking to Kaya. I slowly grabbed
ADRIAN I knew that I was the last person that she wanted to see but I still had to go see her. Now that things were finally over, it was the right time to see her. Normally, I should have waited until she got enough sleep so that she won't feel irritated when i woke her up. Her being irritated would just make things harder for us to talk out. But I was already at her door and I couldn't go back. Wait, why couldn't I go back? She doesn't know I'm here yet. Yes, I should let her sleep and then come back in the morning when she's well rested. As I turned my back to leave, I heard footsteps and then the door opened. We ended up looking at each other for a while before I came closer to the door. “Hey, I thought you'd be asleep and I didn't want to wake you up.”She looked at me with her eye half open. “No, you knew I was awake. You were scared. Come in.” Of course, she knew. I stepped int
KAYA “You were the one who packed up and left our three day old child in the hospital! You left me for over sixteen years and you think that I won't move on? I shouldn't even be looking for you to begin with but I didn't so that out son will have closure and you blame me for loving a woman who had a very good heart and cared for me?” The whole thing was conflicting because to an extent, I could understand what Alisha has gone through and how that shaped her life but what I couldn't understand was how Lucy got caught in her crazy web. “It doesn't matter if I left. You can't fall in love with my best friend or the woman I've loved for years! Its not fair. On top of all that, you only used me for sex. I hated all of you. I hated you and I hated Tim. But I couldn't hate Lucy. She was just the victim in all of this. I was sure that if she could understand that I truly loved her, then we would be together. She was the only one who only ever understood me. She knew my story, she knew abou
