KAYAIt had taken everything in me for me not to lose it..My father was dead.. the same man that had put me through so much and had made my mother see hell when she saw married to him.He was finally dead..I didn't even know if I should be happy or sad or what I shoulddo.She just stared at one spot and breathed , looking back on all the times that they had been had in that house and my father would always take Serena’s side.I knew something was different between Serena and I but I just couldn't pinpoint it.But my father made that very clear. He'd told my mother one day that he didn't know me and he didn't know who I was.“She’s just as weak as you are! I hate weak people!”He hadn't been scared to say it in front of the guests that were present at our party.My mother tried to play it cool but he wanted every guest at our party to hear what he said. I don't know if he was drunk or he just wanted people to know that he hated us.He'd traumatized me.“What do you want to do? Do y
THIRD PERSON POVHe needed to think of smart ways to get what he wanted. He couldn't keep delaying this process..Since they had all agreed that they couldn't attack Alpha Adrian's pack, they might as well infiltrate it.That is, get someone on the inside to make problems.He looked around for who he could see and when he finally going them, he was happy. He called for the soul that he was seeing and it appeared in front of him.“What is your name?”The boy stood in front of him.“Luke. My name is Luke."He liked what he saw. He had to pick someone who he knew would do the job well. He wanted someone who wouldn't give him a headache.“Luke, I see you have ties with someone in the Alpha's house.”The boy nodded..“Yes, I have spoken to Kaya on a couple of occasions.”That was great. As long as he had met her, that was even better.”Now, I would need you to do something for me. I need you to start working in the Alpha's house. I don't care what you work as.. just make sure that you get
ADRIANNora came in again with a very confused look.“What’s going on? Why did Luke or whatever his name is come to call me? I mean, what's he doing in this house in the first place?”I showed her the chair to sit. I knew she didn't like him..“Relax. He walked in here asking for a job and I have him one.”She looked like she was about to reach over the table and slap me..“What did you say? What did you say you did?"”I gave him a job.”She rested on the chair and sighed heavily..“Alpha…”“Beta… I called you here because I wanted you to test his skills. He said he's good so if he can beat you then he's hired, but if he can't, then he's not. It's that simple.”She scoffed..“Don’t even worry about the results. I knew what's going to happen. He can't beat me, you should know that. Nobody can beat me."I agreed.”But I still want to know how good he is. Go out there and do something. Make sure you beat him or else, you're stuck with him.”She nodded and stood up and started walking awa
KAYAI'd gone out earlier today for a stroll.Milo went over to a friend's house. He'd met the boy during his satay in the hospital and they'd clicked. I was just so happy that he finally had somewhere to go and he wasn't always in the house all the time.With nothing to do, I left the house to take a stroll and that's when I saw Luke.At first, I thought I wasn't seeing properly because there was no way he was going to be here and Adrian would not have thrown a fit.But the more I looked, the more the figure looked like him so I decided to go closer.“Luke?”He turned around immediately and smiled when he saw me.”Kaya. Hey."I couldn't believe it. He was wearing a guards uniform .“What on earth are you doing here?”“What do you think? I work here now."I laughed.“You? Work here? That's a joke. No seriously, what are you doing here? Is this some kind of joint work force or something?”“No. I walked in here and asked the Alpha for a job and he gave it to me."Adrian gave him a job?
KAYA“There’s something wrong.”I rolled my eyes. Sometimes, I felt like Lia looked for problems where there were none.Why couldn't she just enjoy peace?“What are you talking about this time? Just because we haven't fought one evil or another doesn't mean that it's the end of the world."“No, you don't understand.”Of course, I never did.“Listen, whatever it is, I'm sure you'll figure it out. Right now, I'm really not in the mood to fight anything or anybody. For once in my life. I just want to enjoy myself.. even if it's just for a couple of days. Please, if anything wants to go wrong, let it happen in a couple of days.”She didn't say anything after that and I liked it. I hadn't gotten up from my bed today. I'd woken up very late and even after I did, I drank a glass of water and went back to sleep.I didn't have the energy to do anything today and I was so happy that no one has come to knock or disturb me.But what shocked me too was that even Milo didn't come. I was expecting h
KAYA“You need to speak to me? What's wrong?”I'm sure I was overreacting but I just wanted an answer.“No, you go first. You brought it up first.”He laughed.“Well, it's nothing deep really. I just wanted to talk to you about us."“Us? What's wrong with us?”“Kay, you're my mate. My Luna. The woman I'm going to marry and build my kingdom and family with. I want to take things further with you."My heart dropped and a chill ran down my spine.I think he noticed my reaction.“Relax, I'm not asking you to marry me. Yet. But I'm just saying that I don't want to be friends with you anymore. I don't just want to be Adrian to you. I want to mean something to you.”He already did. He already meant a whole lot to me and he didn't even know.I placed my hand on his.“Adrian, you already mean so much to me. You're not just Adrian to me, you're everything I've been looking for and now I've found you.”“I’m terrible at doing things at the right time but will you be my girlfriend?"There is nothi
KAYAI laughed. Not a small laugh, not a chuckle, I let out a full on deep laughter.“Let me know when you're done.”I still didn't stop then.. she couldn't be serious, she most definitely couldn't be serious.“You’re joking right? Go back to where to do what?! Please, if you're joking with me, stop it."“Who’s joking, Eve?! Why can't you be serious for once?! Not everything is a joke!”I was alarmed by her tone.“Relax, Lia. I was just trying to understand-"“No! You're not trying to understand anything! Everything I say, you always take it as a joke, you always think I'm not serious! You don't seem to understand the severity of the situation, Kaya! And I don't know what else to say to you.”I couldn't even say anything else to her because I knew she was already upset. I wasn't trying to make fun of her or anything like that. I was genuinely just trying to understand why she was telling me that .“Lia, I didn't mean to make fun of you. I was just asking a question."She didn't respon
KAYAHow was I going to tell him about this?How would I bring up this issue in front of him when I already know how he would react?As he sat beside me, I kept opening my mouth to talk but the words refused to come out of my throat.“Just say what you want, Kaya. I won't bite you.”“You aren't even looking at me!"We were at the beach. We'd had lunch at a beautiful restaurant and we just took a walk back and ended up on the beach, just sitting in silence and watching the sun go down.He laughed.“I don't have to look at you to sense you. I know you're looking at me. What is it?”I took a deep breath and sat up.“I don't know how to say this. I've been thinking about it for a while and I don't know what to say or rather, how to say it.”He sat up too and turned to me.“What is it? Are you sure you're fine?”I tucked my hair behind my ear.“Yeah, I am. I just- I need to go back home."“You don't want to be here? Is it too cold? I can ask for the car to be brought around."“No, no Adr
KAYAThe three day interval between the trial came very quickly and before long, I was getting up before the sun came up and entering the court just as soon as the sun was up in the sky.After today, I was going to be dealing with a lot of very angry people because despite being presented with evidence, a lot of people still won't see the true side of things.They'll always see what they want to, which is fine. If they had any issues with Damien's release, then they could take it up against me.The first thing that we'll do today is to bring the boys to give a testimony of the same thing that they had told me last week.I'd told them not to be scared because they were doing the right thing and I'll do everything I can to protect them from that man.“Chief, I recently got information that the boys want to recant thei
KAYAWhen Nora finally came back, I told her everything that happened and she just sat like that for ten minutes straight listening to me narrate everything to her and then ask questions and then answer them myself.“Nora, say something. What do you think?”“Maybe if you had let me say something during your soliloquy, I would have been able to do that.”I rolled my eyes.“But then again, this is all appalling. You mean, those kids are brothers? I would never have guessed. But with the information I've given you, we can't exactly do anything about it.”I could hear the twins running down the corridor and it interrupted anything I wanted to say.“What do you mean?”“Well, we can't exactly go over there and start
KAYA “Miller, who did this to you?” He looked down at his chest. “I don't want to talk about it.” I'll ask Kyle about it. “Can I get that necklace you're wearing?”He touched it. “No, Kyle gave it to me. He said that I must never take it off.”“That’s okay, Kyle won't know. I won't tell him. I just find it very pretty and I need to take a picture of it. I'll take care of it, I promise.” He slowly took it off and handed it to me. “Are you really going to kill me?”“Oh no honey, I won't. I just said that to get Kyle to give me what I want.”“He’s a really good brother.”They were brothers?! “Miller, is Collins your brother too?” He nodded. It made sense now why there had to be a leader in the pack and why they were all so tight knit. “Thank you for your help, Miller. I'll return these to you as soon as possible.”I told the guards not to take him back to the cells because I didn't want Kyle to see him yet. “Soak these in blood and bring them back to me. We have a show to put
KAYA While Nora was gone, I had to do something for myself. She was out there trying to gather resources and I needed to gather mine too. The only resources at my disposal right now were the ones down there in the dungeons. I'd decided not to go ahead with the executions because as much as they annoyed me by not saying anything, I needed them. Those kids were the only ones who knew who had sent them and who was the person behind the red crown. Milo wanted to come down with me but he hadn't been down here before and this wasn't the place for kids to come. Eventually, he would get the chance to come down here but not yet. I didn't think I would be coming down here any time soon but here I was. The guards led me to their different cells. I'd separated them so they won't have the chance to corroborate their stories. I didn't need them ganging up against me. The first stop was at Kyle's cell. He seemed to be the stronger one between the three of them. He was going to be the hardes
KAYAThankfully, we finished setting up the decorations last night. Everything was in place by the morning and I went with Milo and Nora to wake the twins up with the happy birthday song. I knew they were already awake because as we entered,I saw Lorian moving and Adrian giggled. After the song, they hopped off the bed and ran over to blow the candles. “Happy birthday, my little princess. I can't express how much I love you and how much joy you bring to me.”Of course, Milo has to interrupt the moment. “You're finally ten, which means I get to chase you around the house with knives and mum can't say anything about it.”I didn't understand where that was coming from. “Even when they're old and wrinkly, no one will be chasing anyone with knives. There's no age limit for that.” Of course, they had to use my own words against me. “But you said that Milo can chase us when we become ten. We're ten today, mum.”When did I say that? I don't remember saying that but with these kids, I
KAYA “What is the meaning of this symbol, Collins? What are you not telling me?”He looked like he was trying to fight with himself. “I was supposed to burn that.”It was meant to be a whisper but since the court was quiet, it was audible. “Why should you have burned it, Collins? Were we not supposed to see this?”“It was none of your business. You're going to get us killed!” Well, that's what I wanted to hear. “Not before I kill you first. Listen to me, do you think that I can ask the guards to throw a dagger at you and kill you on the spot? Do you think anything is stopping me?” Who were they working for that made them so scared to even cough? He didn't say anything. “Very well then, schedule their execution to happen tonight. If they don't want to be useful, then I'll do away with them. Get him out of my sight.”As the guards dragged him out, an unsettling question rested in my mind. Who was behind all this? The person had gone through a whole lot just to set things in m
KAYA“Go on, Damien. You have my full attention.”The court was quiet as he rubbed his wrists, obviously happy to be free from the chains.“I can not believe the accusations waged against me. Never for once in my life has it crossed my mind to rebel against Alpha Damon or the King. Even when he took what belonged to me, I took it as fate.”I wanted to ask him about that but I didn't want to interrupt him.“I do not know how those items ended up at my house. I've never even heard of aconite before. All I know is that they came to raid my house and arrest me, saying that I was planning against the Alpha. I got to his house and was still trying to plead my case when they walked in with those items.”So there was no proof that any of those things actually came from his house?
KAYAJust like yesterday, the trial started as soon as the sun came up. I was the last one to enter the court since I'd woken up rather late.Milo and I spent more hours delving into the dynamics of my relationship with his father.Adrian wasn't only my husband, he was my best friend. Which means that we trusted each other with everything.That included administration.I'd only gotten there hours but I had to forget about sleep for now and make it to the throne room.In Alpha Damon's best interest, he was already in the room when I entered.“Things are moving rather speedily and I hope that I could round this up as quickly as possible. Now, I'll be hearing from Alpha Damon about the events that happened in his pack. I think a first hand account won't hurt. Just as it happened.”
KAYA I was going for the letters like a hungry lion trying to gnaw at their prey. I could see that the pile of letters was reducing. “Have you found anything yet?” “Not at all. Do you think it's here?” From the look of things, I didn't think it was here. “How could this happen? We sent the letters out to everyone. And this is everything right? You're sure none of them went missing?”“Yeah, I'm sure. I asked the guards to put them all in a bag and deliver them together so everything will be accounted for. They didn't lose any.”How then was this possible? I sighed and sat on the chair. I had really high hopes for this plan. This was the only way we'd know who had the symbol. “Or maybe we're not dealing with an Alpha. Maybe we're dealing with a noble man. We didn't send letters to them because we thought it was an Alpha.”No matter how much I thought about it, my mind didn't just lean towards it being a noble man..“I don't know about that but we can try it. I'm not in the mood
