ADRIAN

Kaya 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

    KAYAMy eyes slowly opened and thankfully, the damn sun wasn't blinding me this time around.My body has also stopped aching like I'd gone to fight a damn war and the hunger and thirst that I'd ignored earlier were now fighting to be noticed.I tried to stand up, to get to that tray that Adrian had dropped earlier on but no matter how much I tried to get up I just couldn't. His large muscled arm was wrapped around my waist and I was trying so hard not to wake him up.I seriously needed to hit the gym. I kept trying though, wriggling myself out of his grip but it just became tighter and he pulled me towards himself again.Tired and exhausted, I lay on the bed, wondering how I'm going to get out of this arm cage. He was sleeping deeply and it would be very cruel of me not to care about that. He had been up with me for the entire night yesterday and had basically held me to sleep.As I lay there, supposedly thinking about how to get up, I didn't feel like it anymore. I felt very comforta

    KAYAAdrian must have felt very embarrassed because he immediately sat beside me.“Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to take things too far-"“No, it's not you. It's me. I- I have my done this before and don't want to embarrass myself.”I could see him relax after hearing that and he gave me a small smile.”That’s okay."I nodded and that awkward silence that I hated settled between us. The ceiling suddenly became interesting to me as I lay there, wondering what he was thinking about.“Um,” he cleared his throat and got up with one move. “I have a meeting to attend and I'll be busy for the rest of the day. But if you have anything you need, just call for me."I doubted that I would be within three feet from him today because of what had just happened but I nodded and gave him a smile as he left.My mind was revolving around everything that happened and I had flashbacks of his touch for the entire day. After he left and I was able to finally move my limbs, I got up and went to get the tra

    ADRIANI hadn't been able to focus all day.And I had Asher to blame for it.First off, I couldn't get this morning out of my head.It was the closest I had been to Kaya and the farthest we'd ever gone and it was like I hadn't kissed a girl before.Everytime I tried to forget, I saw her face in my head and I just went back to thinking. She was a good kisser, her lips were soft and I couldn't place my hand on what lip gloss she was using but it tasted amazing.Her skin was soft and every part I touched just felt like a fresh loaf of bread right out of the oven.Weird comparison but that was the best I had.I know I said I wanted to get to know her more but with the way she was around me these days and the way I had been close to her, I don't think it will work. The moment she was around me, I stopped thinking and I just couldn't function.I tried. I tried so hard this morning to not touch her, to not give into Asher's devilish torture but I had to break.No, I didn't have feelings for

    KAYAMy head was raging by the time I woke up.My body hurts. It was so sore from the training session that I'd attended a day ago. And even though I missed yesterday's session because Nora thought that I would die if I came around, I still felt like a truck had driven over me.My stomach rumbled, causing me to stand up from the bed.I looked like a mess and my hair was everywhere.There was a knock on the door and a chill flashed through my spine as I looked at myself in the mirror.“I’m coming! Just a moment!”There was no way I was going to let him see me like this. After I lashed out on him that day, I'd felt so bad but I hadn't had the time to go see him.It was all that witch's fault. If she hadn't been there, then I wouldn't have spoken to him that way.Seeing that there was no remedy for the first world war that was happening in my head, I took a shirt and wrapped it over my head.My breath smells horrible but I couldn't keep him at the door so I was going to minimize my talki

    KAYAI should have just walked away and ignored her.I knew she was looking for trouble and she wanted me to give it to her but I wasn't in the mood.Clearly she was bored and had nothing better to do and that was why she settled for riling me up this morning.”If it isn't the new pack slut.”I didn't answer her, I kept walking towards Adrian’s office.”Where do you think you're going? Do you really think that flaunting your smelly little self in front of him is going to get his attention? It's really sad that you think that.”In whatever war that Adrian was preparing for, he should make her stand in front of the battle line and wear raw meat on her neck.It'll be a quick and easy finish.“What do you want this time around? Don't you ever get tired of being you?”She scoffed.”Don’t even think that just because Adrian rescued you, then you can talk back to me. I will smack some sense into you and I would have done that if he hadn't rescued you.”I really needed to thank Adrian for sav

    AdrianHer words stung. But I tried to move past it.It was probably my fault. I was being too forward and it made her uncomfortable. She had expressed how she didn't want people to know that there was anything going on between us and I was doing too much.I should have stuck with my resolution of waiting and getting to know her. The fact that she didn't know that we were mates made things worse.But I thought that with the new discovery of her wolf, things would be easier because she would come to understand that we were mates.But she hadn't spoken anything about it since that day.Was it that she didn't know or was she trying to pretend? Was she waiting for me to say something?I heard the altercation between her and Naya. What she said about Milo… that was what made me want to hear more.But maybe I'd heard too much.We were in the gardens, the same gardens she had shifted for the first time.I'd eventually stopped people from coming here because even though they didn't frequent h

    KAYAI went down for training late that morning.My body hurt, maybe it was the fact that I'd spent my energy running around with Milo yesterday and the boy hadn't gotten tired at all so I had to keep up with his energy so he wouldn't get bored.I hadn't spent enough time with him in the past week and I knew how much he required attention especially that of Adrian and Adrian had been very busy with some things so I had to keep Milo away from him so he could work.As I got to the bottom of the stairs, I made eye contact with an elderly woman who's eyes didn't hold any warm emotion.She was holding her bags and walking towards the front door and just as I wondered who she could be, I saw the maids at one corner trying to hold back their laughter.I figured she was the head matron.Wow, Adrian hadn't wasted time in doing something about her.As she got to the door, she turned back to look at the maids that were standing around and laughing at her.“I hate you all. I hate you all so much.

    KAYAI watched him walk away and I knew I should go after him. So why weren't my damn feet moving?I had just shared a moment with him after thinking that he was mad at me so why did I react like that?I was shocked by the way my heart was skipping beats as I stared into his eyes, not being able to move and frozen in time. I remember wishing that this had happened in my room so that we'd kiss again.It had been so long and I wanted to kiss him again. Why didn't he just chase everybody out of the gym and let it be just us?As I took a step to run after him, I heard my name and I turned to see an older woman walking up to me.“Hello dear, I've been meaning to speak to you for a while.”She paused and I prayed that she would just go on.“Is everything okay?" I hadn't seen her around before.“Yes, it is. I wanted to thank you for what you did for us."Us?She continued.“I heard you had helped in getting rid of the old matron. She had been a horror. And she's gone now thanks to you.”I kn

    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

    KAYA“When he approached us at the bar, he told us that the job he had for us would make us rich and we immediately agreed to do it. He said he needed us to keep secrets and that we have to never tell anyone what we’re doing. Then he said that we had to kill the King.”Nora returned to the room and stood beside me. “What happened after that?”“We didn’t want anything to do with it but he said he’d kill our families if we didn’t do it. So he asked us to meet somewhere and he’ll take care of everything else but we just had to be there. But it neve happened and we were caught.”I was still waiting for him to fill me in but he kept quiet. I was surprised. “Is that all? That’s all the details you have?” He nodded. That’s odd. For a plan as big as killing the King, there should be specifics. I asked that the next person be brought and Miller said the same things. I even had to look through my notes to make sure that I was hearing right and there was nothing new to write down. When Coll

    KAYAThe next day, the court opened as soon as the sun was up. There was no sleep for Nora and I last night since we were trying so hard to put forward an argument. Since she was now representing him, I couldn't help her directly because I needed to remain unbiased and uninvolved in all the dealings of both sides. But that didn't mean I was free to sleep. I needed Damien to be free which meant that I had to raise my own questions too. The letters hadn't returned and I was thinking of telling the Court what happened with the prisoner and the letter and all the ways the coincidence just matched up. However, I didn’t know who was the real culprit which meant I couldn’t trust anyone yet until I found answers for myself. Nancy, who was restless , bumped into me when I went to drink water in the kitchen. ‘My Queen, you’re still awake.”“Nancy, I've asked you to call me Kaya and stop bowing to me. Come, let’s go to my waiting room.”I shouldn’t be speaking to her either since she was
