I was sure it was Serena's voice I had heard coming from behind the mask. She was my sister, I couldn't possibly mistake her voice but somehow, I had still wished that it wasn't her.
I hoped that it wouldn’t be her. That she wasn’t as bad as she portrayed herself, and that my sister was in there somewhere.
The person took off the mask slowly, and the scar was the first thing I noticed. And all my hopes shattered.
“Serena… What's the meaning of this? What are you doing? Let me out of here?”
I fought against the thigh ropes and she laughed.
The sound was like a dagger to my chest. No, seeing her was the dagger to my chest. That just turned it more, causing more pain and making me bleed even more.
After all the things she has done, I’ve never felt as betrayed as I do right now. I regretted giving her a chance all these years, for believing there was some good left in her. That my sister was in there somewhere. She isn’t. She never has.
“Let her down, boys."
One of the men stepped forward and cut the rope holding me, causing me to land on my butt and my ankle at a very odd angle. Despite the pain that ripped through my leg, my eyes were focused on Serena who was standing above me.
She walked forward and crouched to my position, wielding a sharp dagger in her hands.
“I wonder what would happen if I hurt mommy's precious little lamb.” She placed it on my cheek, the cold metal pressing against it and digging into it.
“What do you think you're doing, Serena?”
“Oh sister, you don't know how long I've been waiting for this. How long I've been wanting you to be at my mercy."
I could see her face now and I wish I couldn’t. She looked like a crazed woman, her eyes wide with rage.
So how did she know I was here and how did she prepare this beforehand?
“Why are you doing this, Serena? Why do you hate me so much? What have I ever done to you?”
She stood up and took a few steps away from me.
“You… you took everything away from me! You ruined my life!”
I couldn't understand what she was saying but I didn't ask. I knew it would just upset her more. The only thing that was important to me now was how I would get out of here.
“You took our mother away from me. She only loved you.” She spit out bitterly. “Her entire life was centered around you and she acted like I didn’t even exist. What about me, wasn't I her daughter too? Why didn't she love me like she loved you?”
“That’s not true! She loved you, you were the one who was just too selfish to see it. She loved both of us equally but you wanted her just for yourself!”
Serena hated sharing. That was one of her vices.
“Shut up, I'm not done talking. Next, you did this to me.” She pointed the dagger to her face.
“That was a mistake and I'll forever regret what happened that day-"
“But that doesn't solve anything! I'll have this forever and I'll be ugly! It's all your fault! But you know the funny thing, I still managed to get your boyfriend. Jackson is all mine and when you're gone, he'll forget all about you and his stupid love for you.”
I frowned. Wasnt she ever satisfied? Did she want to ruin me before she finally realized that she had won?
“What exactly do you want from me, Serena?”
She returned to her former position.
“I want to kill you.” She pressed the knife against my face again. “I want to watch the life leave you as I kill you with my bare hands, that's what I want. And now, I'm going to have my wish. "
I doubted that would satisfy her. She had planned all this, I was sure and now, she was about to be granted her heart's desire.
As I closed my eyes, a tear rolled down my face and she pressed the cold metal against my throat.
“Fine, let's end it.”

KayaI was waiting for it, the sharp quick death Serena was going to give me. Or maybe she'll make it slow and make sure I suffer in pain as she watches my blood drain into the ground. Whatever my death may have been, it did not come in soon, I felt the absence of the knife against my throat. Slowly, I opened my eyes in case Serena was still there but there was no one there. She wasn't there and neither were the other men who were standing with her. What the hell? What was going on? Did she have second thoughts? Knowing full well that Serena wouldn't pass up an opportunity to get rid of me, I looked around properly to see if this was just another trick to see if I would actually run away and then catch me in another trap. That was when I saw it, the green glowing eyes approaching me. If that wasn't a wild animal, then it would definitely be a-His growl was the next thing I heard and I froze. Those bastards, they had left me here to be food for whoever this was. I couldn't fight wh

KayaThe guy dropped me on the floor as more footsteps approached us. Had Serena gone back to bring more men to fight him? As we stood waiting for whoever was approaching us, I took a quick glance at him. I had never seen anyone so relaxed in a moment like this. He had a stoic face and looked straight ahead like he could scatter whatever it was, with his mind alone. My ankle was throbbing badly but there were more important things to face right now. “That’s them!” I looked up to see Serena pointing right at the both of us. No, she hadn't gone to bring more men. She brought my father, Jackson, and more guards. This bloody bitch actually had some balls. “Get behind me, it's fine.” The guy whose name I still didn't know, pushed me behind him but he didn't need to protect me, this was my family. Or so I thought.“What are you talking about, Serena?” She went to stand beside my father and held his hand. “Dad, this is the rogue she's been having an affair with. I told you I'd find pr

Adrian They say you learn new things everyday but I never thought I'd get to see a wolf treat their own child like this. As I watched the way these people treated her, it drove me crazy because they were the ones who were supposed to be protecting her. Lycans valued their children, they loved and died for them but it obviously wasn't applying to these people. They treated her like a slave not worthy to stand before them. Her father just stood there in silence, not saying anything to defend her while the girl, Serena, just kept feeding him with lies. What good father would stand still and watch as his daughter is hit by another man in his presence but he didn't even move an inch. I would have ripped his hand off first for calling me a rogue, then for having the guts to raise his hand on her. But I couldn't blame him, he didn't know I was an Alpha. But I was a King only in my Kingdom and by Red Moon rules, Kaya and I should be sentenced to death. This was one of the rules that was

Adrian If the members of my pack saw me right now, a war would break down. Their King, shackled and bound like a prisoner. I'd reached out to Nora through the mind link and she was furious. The first thing she asked me was how the hell I got there in the first place and frankly, I didn't even know. I just have been so out of it while running that I didn't know when I crossed our lands into theirs. Anyways, I told her that I'd explain later and she should just make my identity known before they hung my neck from a guillotine and Serena would have her long term wish if seeing Kaya die. No, I couldn't allow her to die. “Hey Asher!” There was no response. “Wake up, you lazy shit.” I called to my wolf, whom I named after Asher when he died. “First off, I wasn't asleep. Secondly, that's a very offensive thing to say to your best friend.” “Whatever. Where were you when I needed you? We should have fought off those guards and maybe then, we won't be in this mess! We're locked up, Asher.”

Adrian I pushed open the wooden door, the bright light being the first thing hitting my eyes, in contrast to the darkness in the dungeons. Nora stood up immediately, bowing her head to me and there seated on the couch like little rats were the rest. Alpha Hank was the first to kneel, then his daughter followed reluctantly. That toad that slapped Kaya was next. I wanted to deal with him myself and I hoped that I got the chance. He actually dared to lay a hand on what was mine. Not only did I find it disrespectful, I saw it as a threat. He wanted to see what I could do. Ignoring them, I walked past them and went to sit on the couch, taking off the clothes I was wearing. Due to the scuffle out in the woods, I was wrapped in mud and dirt. ”I brought you these.” Nora handed me my royal attire asn I almost smiled. She knew all the right things to do. When I was fully dressed, I addressed the unfortunate situation before me. “Jeez, how the hell do I handle this trash?”Hank was an A

KAYA “Do you want to keep staying here? With them?” I looked at Adrian who was now on his feet, just a few meters away from me. I'd have to be foolish to agree to that. These people had made my life a living hell and I had looked forward to the day I'd get away from them. For the years following my mother's death, I'd lived at their mercy like some slave looking up to her master just to see the next moment. My father was looking at me with wide eyes, like he hoped I'd say yes. He had always been delusional. Always refusing to see the big picture. That was why my mother died. When she was sick, he was the one who refused to take her to the hospital because according to him, werewolves never got sick. I had a bad feeling about her illness and I begged him to get the pack doctor but he refused. Now, he wanted me to stay back so that he and his golden daughter and her boyfriend would continue to mistreat me. No way. “No. Over my dead body.” That finally got a reaction from Jackson

ADRIAN “How do you know that when you haven't spoken to her yet?”Did I really have to speak to her? If she had something to say, she would have talked since. “Besides, I need to determine if she's worth it. If she's worth loving. I can't just jump right into it again.”I'd made a mistake before and I wanted to avoid making it again. “So, what are you going to do with her?" I looked at her and she was still in that position. What was going through her mind? “She’ll stay with us for now. Since her wolf is hidden, it gives us time to get to know her very well and I'll need to see how she is with Milo.”Milo didn’t like a lot of people. It took time before he got used to Nora and that was one of my greatest fears when thinking about a mother for him. What if he didn't like Kaya? What would I do then? “What the hell, Addy-”“Don’t call me Addy!" I hated it when he called me Addy. Both he and Nora did it to piss me off and it worked every time. “Just admit that she has been everythi

Kaya The lady who I'd come to know as Nora led me into the house, walking ahead of me, giving me time to take in the sight in front of me. Right from the moment I stepped into the house, my mouth had fallen open. This wasn’t a house, it was a palace. It was purely magical, like a place right out of a fairytale. The ceiling was far above us, giving the large chandelier enough space to shine. The ground floor was big, big enough to accommodate the large steps in the middle of it. There weren’t any couches but there were vases and ancient decorations. All these looked very expensive.I’ve never seen any place like this before in the Wolf Kingdom, it’s no wonder they were trying earnestly to take over their kingdom. ‘C’mon. Your room is upstairs.” I looked back at Nora and nodded slightly. “My name is Nora, I’m Adrian’s Beta. I also train the military. I hope we can be friends.” My mouth almost dropped. The Beta wanted to be friends with me…a slave?The fact that she was a Beta was

KAYAI slept in my room alone again today.Right now, I wasn't fighting with Adrian but I didn't want to be in the same room as him. Because no matter how much I tried to avoid it, we would most definitely fight.And right now, I didn't have the strength or will power to get into a fight with him. He however, didn't understand what I was trying to do.He wanted to fight. And I didn't.So he came to my room that night to look for me.I didn't even know it was him. I thought it was Milo who had come to tell me that Lana had fallen asleep. I had to leave her with him because I was falling asleep and since she still had so much energy in her, he took her.“Come in!” I simply shouted without even turning aroud.When I heard the door opend and shut, I close

KAYA“Detective, I'm sure it goes without saying that a man who killed his wife won't jeopardize himself. Tim didn't do this.”I'm pretty sure he had gottne that memo so I dismissed him after reminding him to find Lucy's phone quickly.I didn't think that whoever took it would be stupid enough to leave it on but I had to count on that little possibility that they were and hope that they could find the phone.When the detective left, Tobias remained.“Nora, can you check on the kids for me? Lana should be having her second bottle by now.”She nodded and left, realising that I didn't want to speak to Tobias in front of her.“Tobias…”“You realise that what your officers have done is unforgivable.

KAYA“When Tim told you that he had seen a keychain and a bag on the counter, why didn't you believe him?” “Because we didn't see it for ourselves. We thought he was trying to throw us off. He had just been caught with his wife's body. He'd do angbting to get out.” While that was right, it was also stupid. Would he kill and stay here to mourn her? “He was crying. Tim was crying when he was found right? Would a murderer cry after his killing? Or would he run as fast as he can so he won't be found?”Seemed like there was a whole lot more to police work than passing the military exam. “My Queen, psychopathic serial killers have done worse from cutting up the victim's bodies to -” “Is Tim a psychopathic serial killer?” That question threw him off guard but he had to answer it. I needed answers. “My Queen-”“It’s a simple question, detective. Is he or is he not?” “He’s not.”I was tired of speaking to him. It was annoying. “So why would you classify him with them? Do you have proo

KAYA“Twenty minutes isnt a lot of time to do all that.”I brought out my phone and called Nathan. “Nathan, I need your help okay? You don't have to be scared. I want you to help me go down to the dungeons and give Tim the phone. I need to speak to him.” I thought he reject to do it. I didn't want to have to call Adrian. That was if he was even at home and not going around with his new son. “Okay.” I stayed on the line while he went down to the dungeons.I needed to hear what he had to say about that day and not what he told the police. He had been under a lot of stress at that point and it was only reasonable that he would tell them what they wanted to hear just so that they would leave him alone. Nathan gave the phone to the guard at the gate so I could tell him to let him pass through and take him down to Tim's cell. “Um mum, he's here.” “Tim, can you hear me?” Someone cleared their throat in the background. “My Queen, yes I can hear you. Is there any problem?”“Tim, I'm i

KAYA I looked over the calendar. It was obvious that she had used this yo time her missed periods, fertility window and the time she'd get pregnant. “That is not enough proof that she was cheating. We can only speculate. There are still a lot of loose ends.” She was right. “Why don't you look through their personal effects and I'll check through the house?”I nodded and she left me in the room. I was here to find out about Lucy's life so I would check her things first. There were some papers on the nightstand. All they were were cards and random notes. I looked through her clothing, hoping to find a safe or something that the police hadn't looked through yet. I searched her entire closet but nothing came up. Did Lucy have any secrets? As a woman, if I had something to hide, where would I hide it? The police had already been through this place and they didn't find anything. Hmmm, maybe I should read the case files. Maybe then, I'll have a better picture of what happened.

KAYAI ended up sleeping in Milo's room that night because I really didn't want to sleep alone. So I decided to sleep with him. In the morning, I had just opened my eyes when the door opened. Nora stood in the doorway, already prepped for the day and she signalled me to come out since Milo was still fast asleep. I slowly removed my arm from under his head, trying not to wake him up. “Tobias is here, in the waiting room.”Already? What time was it? “Nora, I need you to do something. Go to his office and get the files of Lucy's murder. I want to go through them. After that, I'll meet you up at the house. We need to go through her house to know what her life was like.”I'll just ask one of the guards to take me to Lucy's. “You’ll question him alone?” “Yeah, I just need to shower first.”I genuinely felt like I could use a few more minutes in bed but that phase of my life has passed. At this point, I should be grateful that I even got time to close my eyes at all. “Adrian was loo

KAYA“Kay-”“Adrian, please. I'm trying to get some sleep. Sleep that I couldn't get because you left me in that cell for days! Please, leave me alone.”I walked over to my side of the bed and pulled the covers over me. I didn't have time to banter words with him. “Why’re you acting like this? I thought I already apologized. Why are you making it to be something it's not?”I knew what he was doing. Riling me up so I would talk. But I won't give in to him. I had to get up early tomorrow. Tobias was coming and I was almost definitely going to be spending the first part of the day alone since I wanted Nora to go and get me the case files. After I saw Tobias, I would meet up with her so that we would go to Lucy's house together. From what I gather, the house had been closed down since the murder. I just hoped that no one had gone into the house after the murder to mess things up. “Kaya, going to bed while angry isn't going to make things better. Besides, I had no idea you were going

KAYAThat's exactly what I did when I got home.I headed for Lana's took where I saw the maid feeding her.“My Queen.”“Is she crying? Let me see her?”I dropped my bags and headed straight to take her. She seemed heavier as I carried her and her face lit up as I called her name.“Hello, my princess. Did you miss me? You seem to be going well.”I didn't know whether I should be happy that she was doing fine or I should be sad that she probably didn't notice that I was gone.“Maaamma!”I just froze, not being able to say another thing.I looked at the maid who had a big smile on her face.“Is that her first word?”Th
