KAYAI woke up very early that day. Not by Nora for training but by Lia who wanted to do personal training.“The more understanding you have of your body and your powers, the better it is for you to control me. ““Aren't you the one who controls me?"She laughed.“No, it doesn't work that way. Well, it kind of doesn't. Let's just say it's vice versa. I mean, you have to tell me what to do, I'm just here to guide you through something.”I nodded and she continued.“I'm going to be showing you how to move quickly, wielding a weapon in your hand. And your body movements also have to come from your core, so I'll be teaching you that as well. Then, eventually you're going to have to shift for the second time in order to make things easier and less awkward if the need arises."So basically, I was going to be doing a lot of work on myself. Interesting stuff. I felt very jacked and ready to work because I knew what was coming and I wanted to show my father and his cult that I wasn't going to
ADRIANI woke up that morning with a jolt, my heart thudding loudly in my chest.As I looked around me, I realized that I was in my room.I could have sworn that I was still with those women. How did I end up back here? Or did I die?I had a very bad headache and right now wasn't the time for me to be stressing but I just had to remember how I ended up back hereEventually, it hit me and I remembered them saying that they will help me get back home. It must be so cool to have powers like that. Imagine being able to teleport anywhere.Anyways, now that I was at home, I needed to start working on what they'd told me because it was serious. If those men managed to come here by next week, it would be bloody because even wasn't ready yet.But yes, I'd been jealous when I saw her with that boy. Who was he anyways, he didn't smell like a wolf from my pack but he seemed to know who I was.Whoever he was, he had some guts because for him to come back again with flowers and hug her in my house
ADRIANI don't know if she was already awake before or if she was woken up by the kiss but right now, she was awake and she was staring at me.It was obvious that she had heard everything that I'd said and it made me happy because then I wouldn't have to repeat it. Even if I hadn't to, I wouldn't mind because at least, I'd be letting her know how I felt.I gave her a small smile and I was about to pull her up from the bed when she shook her head. She motioned for her other arm that was under Milo's neck and she slowly removed it from him.As soon as she was on her feet, I pulled her in for a tight hug.“I missed you so much.” She confessed.“Me too. Me too."Looking at her, I wanted to kiss her so badly but Milo moved and I didn't want us to wake him up so I dragged her hand out and took her back to her room.As soon as I closed the door, I put her back against the door and made a move to kiss her but she stopped me.“Morning breath.”I was about to ask her if she thought I brushed my
THIRD PERSON POVThere was less than seven days to the time limit they had to find that wolf.The Grandmaster was panicking but he didn't want to show it. He didn't have enough information on where they were or who they were and if they weren't able to kill her in time, that was going to mean that they would all die.The blood of the special wolf was what was keeping them from dying and they needed to renew their sacrifice as quickly as possible.He'd been thinking about sending people into packs undercover to search for anyone who had just recently found their wolf and they were over the needed age.Most of the time, they were female and he had a feeling that this one was going to be a female too. Right now, that was the only option he had.That was until he was at home one day and he felt it. The wolf had awoken.He instantly rushed to the civen, joking that the wolf would still be active by the time he got there so that he would be able to track her down.Unfortunately, it wasn't
KAYAI was sitting in my room when I heard a knock and the door opened before I could even respond.I knew Milo dn Adrian didn't know I thought it was Nora.But it wasn't.“Belle.”She was the last person I was expecting.In the past few weeks, I've wondered what was wrong with her because every time I tried to speak to her, she was always not responding.She always looked at me like we were enemies and I genuinely thought that there was an issue.She stood in front of me with her hands together in front of her.”Hey, can I speak to you?”I dropped the book I was holding and sat up.“Sure, you can sit."She gave me a small smile and took a deep breath.“I wanted to apologize, say I'm sorry for the way I've been acting. I haven't exactly been myself lately. My dad died and I've been out of it, trying to make sense of my feelings and everything is just so messed up.”My heart suddenly broke.“Belle, I'm so sorry. I had no idea.”She started crying and I felt so bad so I went over to wh
KAYA“Hey, wake up!”I didn't move at first because I was so tired, I'd spent the entire day moving around town trying to get items to decorate Milo 's room.I'd thought that his favorite color was blue so I bought everything in that color only for Nora to suddenly remember that it's not blue, it's green. So we had to go back to all of the stores and swap everything from blue to green.Then after that, I had to think of a good birthday present for him. I hadn't seen Adrian for a couple of days now and I couldn't ask him what Milo liked.And I didn't want to ask Milo either because I wanted it to be a surprise. So I just moved around, trying to pick one exact thing that would make him happy.“You look even more confused than I am and I'm the one thinking.”She looked up from the kids' items in the store.“So, you'll have to do this everyday if you want to shop for your kid? I don't think I want kids.”I looked at her.“What? They're amazing, they're like mini versions of you."She
KAYAI couldn't believe what I'd just heard.Adrian was my mate. All this time, the man I'd been looking to fall in love with ew she man I'd actually fallen in love with.What were the odds? I just stood there and stared at him with tears in my eyes. From the way he looked at me, I was sure that he knew too.I shifted back and quickly put on my second shirt that had been worn under the first one and ran to him.“Adrian, we're mates.”I was so happy so I pulled him in for a hug, thanking the goddess for not letting me meet some psycho who probably didn't know how to treat women.I'd met Adrian who had saved me from my father and who was the reason for my joy.The man I'd been looking for all this time was right before me and I had no idea.One of my main reservations about what Adrian and I had was that I wondered what would happen when he finally found his mate.I'd wanted to speak to him about it at some point but he brushed it off, saying that it didn't matter because nothing was go
KAYAI'd almost forgotten about Milo's birthday. Belle was the one who had come to remind me that his birthday was the next day and I quickly started putting things together.Since I needed to get him out of the room and I couldn't find Adrian around for the life of me, I ended up sending him to Nora's room.I didn't know where Adrian had gone to and when I asked Nora about it, she just said that he had business to take care of. When I asked when she would be back, there was no reply. I hadn't laid my eyes on him since that day out at the garden when he said he wanted to speak to me.I'd gone out to look for him later that evening so we could finally talk but I didn't find him because they'd told me that he stepped out.So I sent Milo to Nora's room. He asked why he was going there and I told him that there was a big bug in his room.Surely enough that seemed to work but he said Nora had to stay with him.. so that night, Nora couldn't help me with the decorations but I got a maid to d
KAYA I was quiet because I wanted them to say everything that they had to say. I knew it was bullshit when Selena said she didn't want anything from Adrian. Left to her, that was what she wanted. Everything. I could see that she was greedy and if we dared to give her even a little, she would ask and ask and ask for more and in the end, I would be the one to regret it because I had asked Adrian to give in to her demands. Since they were down talking, Adrian began. “Since the beginning of it all, there has been one thing that has been on my lips. The boy is not my heir. Of course, it's no fault of his that he was born but then it doesn't change the fact that I already have an heir.” “But My King, the Prince hasn't been crowned as the Crown Prince yet so technically, you don't have an heir. You can still make changes to things now that things aren't official yet.”
KAYAThe next morning, I'd forgotten about the court session so I had to be reminded by Nora later that afternoon. As soon as I woke up, I went straight to Lana's room because I needed to feed her. She had woken up three times through the night to cry. One of the times, it had been because of food and the next, it was because she wanted to be held so Adrian held her for about two hours, rocking her back to sleep while I tried to fight the sleep from my eyes. “You should sleep. You've been dozing for too long.”I opened my eyes again. “No, it's fine. I'm awake, I don't need to sleep. Is she asleep yet?”He looked down at her and smiled. “Not even a little.”Gosh, it's like a new born baby all over again. “Just sleep, I'll put her down to sleep.”I'd never been more grateful for having a partner as I was in this moment because I really needed the sleep. By the time I woke up,
KAYAMy baby had woken up. I'd been sleeping already and Adrian was in the room doing something.I'd woken up to check on him when I saw something move out of the corner of my eyes. At first, I thought I had seen wrong. “What are you doing?”Adrian looked up from his phone. “Nothing. I just can't sleep.”I pat the space behind me. “Come here.”He got up from the chair and walked over to the bed..Since Lana was still a baby, she had to stay in her cot and not on the bed so Adrian and I took the bed. He was staring at her for too long so I stood up and walked over to him. “What is it? Why're you looking at her like that?” He didn't answer and I just joined him in looking at her..then I saw it properly. Her hand moved. Adrian moved immediately. “I’ll get the doctor”.As soon as Adrian left, her eyes slowly opened
KAYANora was in my room very early the next morning. “I thought you would be in the hospital with Kaya. Why did you come back?”“Because I need to be there for whatever wants to happen.”I didn't even know what wanted to happen today. All I knew was that I wanted it to be over. A lot was going wrong in my marriage and I needed to fix it. I didn't want to say that Kaya had caught me with Selena last night because I wasn't even doing anything wrong. Selena was the one who had thrown herself at me and she came just at the wrong time. Thankfully, she was smart enough to know the truth. I didn't even know how I was going to begin explaining things to her if she hadn't believed me. Selena was trying to ruin my marriage.I told Nora what happened last night and she just stood there looking at me. She didn't seem shocked. “That’s the kind of person you go and get pregnant with?”
KAYAI shouldn't have bothered coming home. I'd planned to stay in the hospital with Lana but I had to give Roy the envelope so that he would leave. He wanted to stay with me in the hospital since Adrian had to leave but he had a sick wife at home and I didn't like the fact that I was coming in between his time with her. I didn't know where Nora had wandered off too as well so I had to go give him.Now that I think about it, I could have easily asked him to go to my room and take it himself but I think fate wanted me to go home that night. The envelope was still on my bed when I went back there and I handed it to Roy. “You don't need to come all the way out here. You can just text me the results by sending a picture. You don't have to go through all that stress.”“Kaya, what are you saying? You are my Queen and I have to serve you. You don't worry, I'll be fine.”I thanked him as he left and h
ADRIANI knew when the doctor brought the results the next morning but I didn't bother to go downstairs to see him. I had come home that night when Kaya had fallen asleep. We still had other kids and I had something to attend to. Somehow, the kids had heard about their sister being found and they had questions for me when I tucked them into bed that night. “Dad, I thought mum said the baby was sick. Why's everyone saying that she was found?”The question had thrown me off guard because I didn't expect them to know anything about it. “Who told you she was found?”“The maids were talking about it during bath time. I thought mum said she was sick. Was she lost?”Those careless maids didn't know when to keep their mouths shut. “Don’t listen to them. Yes, your sister was sick but she's doing better now. Your mother is with her in the hospital.”“When can we go see her? We asked mum before
KAYA“The DNA test. I want to tell Selena to bring the kid over so-”“Don’t even think about it and if you've already thought about it, kill the thought. Don't you dare bring that woman and her child into the same hospital as my daughter. I don't care where you want to take her to. Don't bring her here.”Adrian sighed. “Okay. I'll be outside speaking to the doctor.”“Do what you want.”He placed a kiss on my forehead as he walked out of the room. Bringing her here would be asking for war and I was ready to fight..Nora came after a while with a bag. “Hey, you need to eat. You haven't eaten anything today.”Now that she said it, that was when I realized that I actually hadn't eaten anything. But it didn't mean that I was hungry. “I don't need food right now, Nora. I'm not hungry.”“I wasn't expecting you to say that you were.”She brought the food out and opened th
KAYAI didn't even know when I slept off in my chair.By the time I woke up, it was already dark out and I jumped up almost immediately to see that there was no one at my side.At the end of the hallway, Nora and Adrian stood speaking to each other.The looks on thier faces..“No, please tell me she's not dead.”My knees gave in and I fell to the floor. Adrian rushed over.“Kay, Kaya. Take it easy. Just relax, it's going to be fine.”Who did this? How could they do this to her?“She’s not dead. She's in a coma. The doctor said that she's been exposed to the cold so much and after warming her up, she slipped into a coma.”I got up from the floor immediately.&l
KAYA“So tell that woman or whatever she is to wake up from her dreams because there is no way her child will be the King while I'm alive. Get her to do the test and then send her out of my house. I don't care what happens after that.”“Nobody will take Milo's throne. I'm not going to let him become the heir.”I didn't know where this came from but I knew it was from a place of rage and hurt.“Even if you try to think of giving the throne to him, I will kill you and everyone else who stands in my way until my son sits on that throne. That is not a threat. I'm sure you know I can do it.”Since they wanted me to go this far, I would. I wouldn't let anyone treat Milo like he wasn't a part of this family. I knew what he had gone through when this issue initially started.When those low lives decided to come af
