ADRIANI didn't think that she'd actually let me kiss her and I was scared that I was making a move that would ruin things. But she didn't say anything. Her body responded to my touch the way I wanted it to. I could feel Asher’s happiness as I touched her, her soft skin. She smelt so good, I couldn't pin the smell. I had to touch her to get a better feel of what she was like. Asher needed an idea of what she was like since he didn't know what her wolf looked like so I decided to explore with my hands. I had barely gotten anywhere when Nora ruined things. Why did she have to come at this point? Couldn't she have just waited? I could see that stupid smile on her face, happy that she had caught me in a very compromising situation but oh well, I wasn't ashamed of it. She was my mate after all. I could see that Kaya was flustered, obviously from the fact that Nora had caught us or was it from the kiss? ”Well, I guess waiting isn't in the list anymore.” She mocked me. “You should b
LUCIAN“What do you mean you're feeling her? You- you can feel her wolf?” Since I couldn't sleep, I was having a conversation with Asher while trying to distract myself from that growing pain between my legs. It was a damn kiss so why was this happening to me? This was all my fault. It had been a very long time since I got close to any woman and Asher was already on the edge about meeting our mate so it made a lot of things very tense. I was thinking about a while to distract myself from her, to make myself not think about the million different ways that I wanted to lay her across this bed because I said I wanted to get to know her. Yes, I want to get to know her first before doing anything with her. Well, I'd kissed her which had defeated that purpose but I wanted to know her first. ”How else do you want me to mean it? I mean, I can feel her. She's finally active.”That was a good thing right? It meant that she wasn't weird and it would make this whole thing faster.“That’s goo
Kaya For the first time in a very long time, I didn't wake up alone in bed. My head rested on a hard surface, not too hard that it hurt but hard and warm and it rose and fell in sync with someone's breathing pattern. What exactly had happened last night? And why was the Alpha in my bed? In this position with me? I raised the sheets to see that we were still fully clothed, thankfully. Then I remembered the kiss. “Oh you have got to be kidding me!” I whispered to myself, glancing up for a moment to see if he was still sleeping. As I tried to wiggle my way out of his arms that checked my neck, I felt something poke my back. I thought it was a mistake so I pressed up against him again and felt it. Oh dear, that wasn't good. How come his arm was so heavy and it was so hard for me to carry while I wanted to run away? I was also trying so hard not to wake him up because I didn't want to disturb him. I really needed to get to practice. The more I moved, the more I brushed up against
ADRIANHe liked her. Milo, I mean. He was actually the one reaching out to her this time. Milo hadn't reached out to any woman since his mum left. I had actually been worried as to whether he would actually be able to heal or this would lead to him hating women. I really hoped that it wouldn't end with the arrival of Kaya, I could see that he wouldn't. He enjoyed being around her and he was always in her room. If I couldn't find him in his room, all I needed to do was go to hers and see him laughing and smiling with her. I felt more at peace now that I knew he was with someone responsible. It sort of turned into our routine now. At the end of the day, we'd all meet up in her room to talk about our day, laugh and play. I mean, I never knew that he could laugh this loud. It felt good to face someone to speak to, someone that wasn't Milo and Nora. She listened intently when I spoke and it made me feel like I was being heard. I enjoyed being around her. Milo, his wife and I.He fin
Kaya When I first approached the office, there was silence and I was about to open the door when I heard his voice. “What the hell is that supposed to mean?!” “Alpha, I have no idea. We just received word that-"“I know what you received, Allisher! I heard you loud and clear the first Hanke. What I'm saying is how the hell can he say something like that?! All because of what? His pride was hurt?!”As I said, since I'd been here, I've never seen Adrian raise his voice at anyone except Naya so I could see that he was extremely stressed. Should I just leave and come back later? I didn't want his anger to be transferred to him.. I just wanted to ask him if I could take Milo on a walk and right now that he wasn't in a good mood, he would probably repeat what happened the first time I met Milo. “Hank is really getting on my last nerves and he's going to get what's coming for him.”What were the chances that Hank was my father? “Just be calm, Alpha. It's just a rumor, we're not even s
KAYA Shifting? Like hell. He didn't know about my wolf, I couldn't possibly be shifting. Lia was still in hiding, which meant something else was the cause of this madness. My whole body began to shake and I was beginning to get scared. What was happening to me? Was I going to die?“I don't think that's what is going on. I probably ate something bad.”Hopefully, he wouldn't ask me any questions. Also, how did he know I didn't have my wolf yet? Could he sense that too? If he could, then what else did he know? “No, I'm sure of it. You're shifting, we need to get you outside.”I wanted to tell him that if I could stand up and walk outside on my own two feet, then it meant the pain went that bad. But right now, i couldn't even say a word because it was like the air was being knocked out from me. “Come in, I'll take you somewhere.”I managed to give him my hand and he pulled me up slowly, not wanting to awaken the monster that was inside me. As I was about to stand up straight, the
KAYAI'd stopped shaking by the time I woke up. I was lying naked in the field, and the sun was just coming up so it wasn't very hot but that meant I could feel every sun rays on my body directly. There was no longer fur coming out of my body which I was grateful for because that would have been the wrongest thing to experience now that I was in the right frame of mind. I needed a recap of everything that had happened last night because I didn't fully remember it. The pain and the uncomfortableness that i'd felt was something I couldn't forget hit after I spoke to Lia, I didn't know what happened after that. Lia… would she finally answer me when I called for her now? ”Lia?”Just as I'd expected, there was no response. But I felt alive in some way, everything about my senses seemed much more sharper. I could see clearer, I could smell things more and I could hear thing around me that I couldn't what normally before like the way I could smell Adrian and the way I knew that he was
ADRIANKaya fell asleep after crying for almost an hour.I watched her as her chest rose and fell and her silent snores filled the room.I knew she was tired so as soon as she started crying, I brought her to the bed.I felt bad for her, having to deal with all this and wanting none of it. She was scared, that much was obvious and I couldn't do a thing to help her.The first shift was something that has to happen naturally and being what she is, it made it worse. I could see that she hadn't the slightest clue what was going on or what it was about.“Can’t we do something?” I asked Asher as soon as he told me what was going on.“What exactly do you want to do? Help her shift? You and I both know you can't do anything.”“How about we get the doctor? I mean, he can give her something for the pain.”“And risk messing up? She's no ordinary wolf, Adrian. She's a special wolf. I told you this before.” He said, sounding tired of me. “Yes, but you didn't tell me much. So forgive me for offeri
KAYA I saw him. Mark. I saw him standing over her with a knife in his hand and I screamed but he wouldn't stop plunging the knife into her. I ran to stop him and that's when I realized that I had been chained to the wall. He cackled loudly, disturbing my ears and tears blinded my vision. “You will suffer. I will kill all your children, Luna. And you will stand by and watch.” To the side, I saw Milo and the twins also being held by men and I couldn't do anything. All I could do was beg. Cry and beg. “You can't do anything to save them, Luna. You can't. So give it up and give me what I want.”My body was getting weak from trying to get out of these chains. But my daughter was with him and I needed to see her. “I don't know what you want. Tell me and I'll give you.”I noticed that the chains were falling off the wall.With one strong pull, I should be able to get them off. And that's what I did. I used yeh chains to hit him across the face, causing him to fall to the ground
ADRIAN It was taking too long for them to bring him to me so I went out myself. “What the hell is the hold up? Why can't you find him?”“I have no idea, Adrian. I don't know. He was just here right now.”This was insane. Did that mean I couldn't trust any of my men anymore? Why were they dead if he had put them in the cells himself? “The men said they last saw him a few minutes ago walking out of the cells. Of course, they didn't suspect a thing.”This was bullshit. Cold blooded murder right under my nose. The audacity! “Get men out there! None of them are to come back until they come with a solution. They should bring him back here!”She began walking away. “And Nora ! Tell Allister to bring himself back here. I need him now.”I couldn't even remember where he was because of the amount of things clouding my mind. “I'll let him know, Alpha. I'll be out in the field if you need me.”All I could do was wait until they returned. In the meantime, I remembered that he had dropped
ADRIAN“You didn't know he wanted to harm the princess?! What did you think a random stranger asking you for such a thing wanted to do? Give her a surprise party?!”If I was employing such stupid guards, I wonder what else has gone wrong in this house because of them. “What else did you do?” “I found them and told them about the plan. He said he was going to pay us as soon as the job was done.”If they were there, that means they saw them when the baby was taken. I asked the two others who were on the second floor. “No, as soon as they passed, they asked us to leave. Their faces were covered with a hood. It was only later we learnt of the princess's abduction.”So these men stood by while my daughter was being taken. “And just like that, they left. They took the child and left.”Well at least, I'm getting somewhere. That meant that Mark wasn't working alone. That meant he had someone else working for him, most definitely on the inside as usual. “Take them away. I don't want to
ADRIANI grabbed the note pad and ran out of the room, going to our room to look for her. How did she- That's why she was with Nora during the interview. “Alpha, we found something.”I stopped to look at Peter. “Can it wait? I have something to do right now.”“No, it can't. It needs your urgent attention..I think you should see this.” What the hell could it be? “Fine then, what is it?”I went downstairs with him. Two guards were standing in the centre ground, with clothes in their hands. “Is that what I think it is?”They were Lana's clothes. And it had their blood on them. “Alpha, that's not the only thing we found.” I didn't like his tone. I didn't want to believe it. No, it couldn't be..“Whatever it is, can wait. Not a word of this to anyone..not a single soul. Not even Nora , do I make myself clear? Take them and keep them in my office along with whatever you found. Not a soul!”I walked away, leaving them there. If Mark harmed my daughter…I wouldn't be able to stand i
ADRIANThat bastard had the guts to come into my house and take my child.After everything that he had done, this was more than he could chew. No one knew what had happened aside from Nora and Kaya . I wanted to keep it that way. We would find him one way or another with my baby safe and sound. Kaya wasn't saying anything. Not just to me, to anyone. I'd asked Nora if she'd spoken to her and she said no. When I tried to approach her, she walked away.It was driving me nuts and I needed to know what she was doing. “Adrian , I need your help. Can you recognize Lana's smell?”Nora handed me the blanket still stained with blood and it got my stomach in a knot but I didn't let it show. “Yes, I can.”“I need to make sure that it's her blood. At least, we'll know that she's safe and sound.”The entire blanket smelt like her so it won't be hard to figure out if someone else's scent was mixed up somewhere. But when I smelt it, it was just her. “I will kill him, Nora . I will give
KAYA I screamed. With everything in me, I screamed. It only took Adrian two seconds to come flying into the room. “What’s going on?”It only took him another two seconds to access the room and see the blood. “Where’s the baby? What happened to her? Why's there blood? Whose blood is that? Where is she?”I couldn't move. I just stood there looking at the empty blanket as if I could see her.Nora joined us in the room. “What happened?”I don't know what Adrian said to her because I had already disconnected by that time. My legs went away and I fell to the floor. My chest was heavy and my breathing heavier as my brain tried to remember where the hell my baby was. Adrian came to crouch beside me and he shook my shoulders. “Kaya, now's not the time to cry. Where is the baby?”I opened my mouth to talk but nothing came out. I just stayed staring at him.“Kaya ! Say something! Where is my child?!”Him shouting at me got me scared and it pushed back the words I wanted to say. “Adria
KAYA I followed them downstairs, not being able to sit there anymore. I was not going to sit there when a psychopathic murderer was on the loose with no one knowing his whereabouts. Nora and Adrian were talking in hushed voices and I walked up to them to hear what they were saying. But they stopped talking as soon as they noticed my presence. “What’s going on? What's the update?” They looked at each other and I didn't like it. “Can someone tell me what's going on?”Nora walked away while Adrian turned to me and grabbed my shoulders. “Kaya, you don't have to worry, okay? I assure you that I'll take care of everything. You won't have to worry. I'm working to make sure that he's caught. It won't be long now.”I knew that he could catch him quickly but it didn't give me a sense of relief, especially the fact that he was not in chains. “Why didn't you just get rid of him when you had the chance? Killing him would not have affected her birth, you know?*I wasn't blaming him for t
KAYA Nora was right. I was pregnant..I also didn't believe it when the doctor told me..I gave birth to my daughter, Lana last week. She was the most beautiful thing to ever exist and I felt like I'd fallen in love all over again. She came out looking like Adrian which pissed me off so much. “According to my father, a girl has not been born into this family in ten centuries. But you, my Queen, gave me a daughter. You made me a special father and I love you for that.”“So you weren't a special father when you had us?” Milo asked. Adrian barely turned around to look at him. “Shoo, everyone has seen you. I'm speaking to my wife and my daughter.”I laughed..”She’s going to be so spoiled.”Adrian was very good at spoiling kids and that's why Adrian was going to be just as his father was. Spoilt. “You can say that again. She's going to be daddy's girl. My little princess.”She made me happy and she made all of us happy. She was a blessing. Adrian had to leave because a guard called
KAYAMaybe it was the fact that he thought I had forgotten or maybe it was the fact that he thought I didn't see him but the Chief Guard returned like nothing happened. I didn't even see him. Milo was the one who saw him and ran to my room. “Mum! The Chief Guard.”Since he woke me up from sleep, I stared at him for some moments before my brain kicked in. “He’s back?”Milo nodded and I was about to get down from the bed when I remembered that I couldn't walk by myself anymore. The crutches hurt my armpit and I didn't like using them. “Get me your father now. If he's with the Chief Guard, don't bother saying anything until he leaves.”He nodded and ran out but I stopped him when he got to the door. “Milo, try not to look suspicious. Just be you.”How could he be the spy? It just didn't make sense. What was in it for him? I could have never asked Jackson what his connection to him was. But as much as I could think about it, try shouldn't be connected in any way. I never knew any o
