ADRIANI didn't expect my day to go like this.Milo ran up to me that morning to tell me that he has something to say to me.“What’s it, buddy?”He started signing and then paused. Sometimes, he forgot that he could now talk. He stretched out his hand and I wondered what he wanted so he made the money sound.“It's her birthday tomorrow.”I was confused as to what he was talking about.”Who buddy?”He rolled his eyes and looked at me.“Kay. It's her birthday tomorrow.”My eyes widened. How the hell did he know and I didn't? Maybe it was because he spent a lot of time with her and he seems to know her better than me.I patted his head and brought out some money to give to him.“Thanks buddy. You're the best.”I wondered what I was going to do for her. It would be her first birthday as a mother and as my fiance and I wanted to make it special for her.I wanted her to feel like the queen that she was. She mattered to me so much and I wanted to let her know it.That's why I'd been spending
KAYAWhen I woke up that morning, I knew something was different. The way my body felt so heavy like there was a boulder on me but I thought being nine months pregnant does that to you.I went with Nora to shop for a few baby things because the doctor said that I should try to leave the house and stretch my legs. So I went with her into the pack.By the time we got there, I felt dizzy and something about my body changed. I tried to calm Nora’s attention and tell her that there was something wrong with me but as I opened my mouth, it was something else that came out of another part of my body.My water broke.I just stood there, not being able to move or think or speak. Nora suddenly turned to me and ran to me“Kaya! Why didn't you say something? Shit! Let me get the car and get Adrian.”I shook my head.“The hospital is just up front. Get Adrian now.”She nodded and walked me down the road. The contractions were coming heavily now and I was trying to balance the pain in my body while
KAYAWe took the kids home, Liam and Adrian . It wasn't easy having two babies at the same time but somehow, I did it. I had hell from Adrian who hadn't left my side in days and then there was Nora who was at my beck as call.It felt really good to be loved and I was so happy that they could be there to help me. It had taken me a lot to end up where I was today and in the end, I had ended up a Luna and a mother.My mother had been the one to let me know that I was ready for this journey. I would have been able to do it without her help. Even though she wasn't here anymore, I was sure that she was looking at me.That was how much she loved me, that was how much she cares about me.Now that I had given birth, I suddenly wanted to get married to Adrian . I don't know why I now felt like it was the right time. Somehow, I felt that getting married when pregnant would not be suitable for what I wanted.Adrian had spoken to me about legally adopting Milo ..“Have you run it by the boy?”He
KAYAWe'd woken up earlier that morning to start the preparations. The night before, we'd had a little bachelorette party.Nora and I alone since I didn't exactly have many other friends and neither did she. At the end, Milocame in to join us because he couldn't sleep.He was too excited. Adrian had chosen him as his best man and even though I knew he didn't know what that meant, it was so nice to see him be excited for our wedding.Since I was still breastfeeding, I couldn't drink alcohol so we just ate and caught up on old times and then when Milorefused to go stay with Adrian and Aaron and a few other Alphas who had come over for dinner earlier because they were talking about weird stuff, we decide to do some karaoke.Thankfully, we slept earlier so that we could wake up in time for the wedding.Everything went smoothly and since I had no one to walk me down the aisle, I walked myself down, with my eyes on Adrian as he smiled widely at me. I was shocked when I saw the tears in his
KAYAAdrian thought it was a good idea for Milo to start school now that he was verbal.He'd been scared of bringing it up to the boy for weeks because he felt that Milo might not like the idea of it. Since he hadn't exactly spent a lot of time around kids his age, Adrian feared that he might get picked on and in all honesty, I wondered the same thing but we wouldn't know if we didn't try. So that weekend, we went out to the park and spent the day together and then Adrian brought it up.Long story short, he seemed very happy about it. Infact, he got up to hug Adrian and he could see he was finally breaking out of his shell. I had been worried about him..I didn't want my baby boy to grow up as a weird kid. Today was his first day of school and I went to pick him up so that it would be a memorable day for him. I wanted to ask him how his first day was and then take him for ice cream for being so brave.Lucain and I hadn't been able to go for a honeymoon because of all the respon
KAYAThe driver has mistakenly hit a woman. Thankfully, she wasn't injured but I still took her to the hospital to get a full checkup to rule out any internal injuries and generally to make sure that she's fine.“I'm so sorry. It's all my fault .I told my driver to hurry up so we could get home.”Poor boy was shaking in his boots in fear because Adrian would find out. I told him not to worry because I would take all the blame.“It’s fine. I should have been looking where I was going but I wasn't and I apologize for that.”I looked at her as she spoke. Something tugged my heart and I couldn't help but feel like I'd seen her somewhere before.“Have we met before?” She looked up and smiled.”No, I don't think so. I would have remembered a sweet soul like you if I had met you.”I gave her a small smile and glanced back at Milo who was doing something on my phone.“Is that your son?”I nodded. Milo was my son.“Yes, yes he is. Are you a member of this pack?”She hesitated before she answe
ADRIAN 18 YEARS AGOI woke up to my parents raising their voices at each other again. It was now a daily occurrence. Sometimes, I didn't even know what they were fighting about and other times, I didn't know who's side to pick.They enjoyed putting me in the middle, making me choose who was wrong and right and I hated it. I hated it so much so I tried to stay as far away from them as possible.I went about my usual day despite the noise. Everyone was used to it, them going at it everyday and I wouldn't let them ruin my day..I managed to ignore them, until I heard a loud crash. I ran upstairs to check on my parents door but it is locked so I started banging so hard on the door..“Dad? Mum?! Are you okay?! What's going on! I heard a loud noise!”No one said anything and it was like they weren't there any more. I had to press my ear against the door to even hear if they were still inside but the door opened then and I fell to the group.My father raised me up with one hand while the
ADRIANI didn't want to listen to anything that she or anyone had to say. But somehow, Kaya found her way to my heart.“Adrian, please. Just listen to her and hear what she has to say.”“No Kaya! You don't know what she did! She almost ruined things for this family. Does she know what her actions did to my father? He almost lost his title because she left. He loved her so much that he almost lost his sanity and the only thing she could do was pack up and leave him.”She sighed and placed her hand on my shoulder..“Adrian, do you know what made her leave? I think you should hear her out first before ruling that she left because she wanted to.”I looked at her.“So are you trying to say that I'm over reacting?”“No, I'm not. All I'm saying is that you should hear her out please. For my sake and for the fact that she came all the way here.”I don't care where she came from, even if it was from the clouds. As long as she didn't speak to me..“Adrian please. Just hear her out.”I didn't wa
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
