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
ADRIANI ran all the way to the hospital, stopping on the road to make sure that he was still breathing.His face that was once red was now pale and his lips were blue.As soon as the doctor sighted us, a stretcher was brought and they took him in.I was going to go after them but a nurse stopped me.“Alpha, you need to stay here. When the doctor is done, he'll let you know.”How could I stay calm?Nora placed her arm on my shoulder.“Adrian, you need to calm down. He's going to be okay. The doctors are doing the best they can.”My son was in there and he could not breathe and they were telling me to be calm. After pacing the corridor for half an hour, I finally sat down and placed my head in my hands.What if something happened to him?What if he didn't make it?When I found out about his allergy was the day that I'd offered him a bar of chocolate and he'd almost died.That day, the doctor told me that if I hadn't brought him in earlier, he would have been dead in a couple of minutes
KAYAI wanted to go after them but I couldn't.I just knew that I couldn't. Nora went after him though and I just stayed there so going what the hell I was going to do.Why would I make chocolate cake when I knew he was allergic to it?I kept thinking back to that day and wondering if I truly told Belle about it and I was sure I did. I would never try to put his life at risk.Tears rolled down my eyes and I wondered if he was going to be okay. I left the room and went to the kitchen, to look for Belle so she would tell me why in the world she would make a mistake like this when I'd told her not to.I didn't find her so I asked one of the maids.“Belle? She resigned this morning.”“Resigned? What do you mean by " resigned?"Of course, I knew what resigned meant but right now, my brain wasn't comprehending anything.“I mean, she quit.”“Wait, but why? I mean, I just saw her this morning."She shrugged.“I don't know. But I knew she was in a hurry. She didn't even finish clearing out her
KAYABy the time we got down from the car, the sun had already cooled down so I didn't really feel the fatigue and lack of sleep a lot. The fact that I hadn't eaten either made me even more uncomfortable. I looked at Adrian who was still in his clothes from last night. All that lace…he should have changed when we were going out. He must be so uncomfortable. “Why don't you go upstairs and change? You look uncomfortable..you should change your clothes.”I liked how he didn't argue with me because in all honesty, I didn't have the strength to argue with him. He just nodded, turned around and left. Nora was always in combat attire so I couldn't even say that she was uncomfortable. As we got down from the car, I thought of going to check on the twins but I knew that I'd cry if I saw them. “Do you want to check the cameras out now or do you want to go inside?”I wasnt in the mood either to check those cameras and I just wanted to be alone..I walked past her and remembered that we had
KAYAMy brain kicked into action. Without thinking, I pushed him to the side and ran towards the cabin, hearing the heavy footsteps inside as they moved around the house. I threw the door back and ran inside, meeting two men at the door about to come out. “Where do you think you're going? Where is my daughter?”They didn't say anything and I made sure that Adrian was behind me before I left them and went to look around the house. My heart was beating loudly and his words rang in my head. “Kill her…”They couldn't possibly have killed her so soon right? It's not possible. It was just a one room cabin so it wasn't very hard to look around. Some of the guards joined me to search but there was nothing. No sound. Tears gathered in my eyes as I looked at Adrian. It couldn't be. He walked across the room and looked out the window and my heart thudded in my chest as I waited for him to say something. I couldn't even look for myself.“Is she there? Where is she?”As he turned back to
KAYAWe had a back exit. One which I had no idea about.I'd been thinking about how to get this bastard out of here without being seen because the party was still going on upstairs.“Are we just going to leave the party without any of us being here?”Adrian spoke up immediately.“Don’t even think about it. There is no way I'm leaving you to go alone.”Nora gave me the same look too.“Milo is the only one up there. We can't leave him alone, can we?”There was no way I was going to be the one to stay back and wait. My baby was out there and I would bring her back.“He’s the Prince and he's going to be the King eventually. It's better he learns how to handle guests on his own. I'll.go back in and tell him that t
KAYA The instrument was meant for the butthole. It would be inserted into the butthole, making it expand so the victim would be in immense pain. But I wasn't going to do that. I always found it disgusting. Instead, I asked the guards to hold him down and hold his head steady. I opened his mouth and put the metal in so that it would expand it. He still didn't know what he was in for so he appeared calm. “Oh, I'm just getting started.”There was bleach on the floor, used for cleaning the cells when they got too filled with blood. I knew that pouring bleach down his throat won't do any good and I was hoping that he knew that too .“One major inconvenience is not being able to speak. I'm sure you enjoy talking so much which is why you chose to gloat that you had taken my daughter at the party. If you had known better, you would have kept your mouth shut.”I opened the bottle and watched his eyes widen. The way Adrian and Nora just stood to the side silently, I almost forgot that they
KAYAI don't know if he knew that I had caught unto him because of the way he looked at me but he didn’t say anything as he walked away. “Why did he ask about her?”I pulled him in and told him everything about what happened in the bathroom. I knew that the people behind this were in the room with them. “Why didn't you say anything?! You're going to let them get away with it?”“And you think going to arrest them would do anything better?.you think you can beat them into telling you where she is?”The only advantage we have now is that they don't know that we know who they are. That's the only upside to this. Asides that, we were at a loss. “We can arrest one of them though. I'll tell Nora to stop him from leaving the party. Besides that, there's nothing we can do.”I needed him to think about it properly. I wanted to find the both of them and torture them until they told me where my baby was but I couldn't do that. “Where is Nora?”He stood up and went to look for her.. I wonder
KAYAI just stood there frozen because there wasn't anything that I could do. I mean, if I jumped out now and told them that I was here, I didn't have back up with me to arrest them and they could easing get away or harm me. Now I understood why Adrian always said I should be with a guard. But if a guard had been with me, they wouldn't have come in here. Damn, I didn't even know who had these voices. How would I identify them? “I don't know. Maybe she doesn't know that her baby is missing?” I'm thinking the people here are the person behind the kidnapping and the people emoloyed to do it. “How dumb can you be? Why won't she know that her baby is missing? It's a baby. The kid is practically glued to her side.” Maybe if I opened the door a bit and looked to see who they were. I saw that the door waa already cracked open a bit but I could only see one man. I hadn't noticed him at the party tonight but I took more of what he looked like so I could have him.arrested as soon as I l
KAYAI told Adrian the party would hold and it did. The reason why I was doing this was because I felt this wasn't random. Someone from nowhere won't come and take my baby and people often liked to see the damage that they had done. And there was a high chance that the person responsible would come here tonight. That was why I wws going to make it a mission to speak to everyone here tonight. Adrian would not understand it even if I got a tattoo about it. I knew he wouldn't come to the party which was fine. I'd explained everything to Nora and I knew I had her help. Milo wasn't still feeling up to it so he wouldn't be coming either. The man he had bought water from was still down in the cells. I'd gone down to meet him at some point and it didn't seem like he was ready to tell me what I wanted to hear. Perhaps he thought since I was cool, then it was a joke. I'll deal with him according to what I find out tonight. Lana would be very hungry. I wonder if they've given her somet

KAYACancel the party? Far from it. I had something else in mind. Adrian however, wasn't a party to that idea. No pun intended. “Our daughter is missing! And you still want to throw a party? Can you listen to yourself?” I knew what I was saying and I could hear myself. “There is nothing wrong with what I'm saying, Adrian. I simply want to go on with the party as it has been planned already. I know what I'm.doing.”I knew that what I was saying was pissing him off which was fine. Right now, tensions were high and he wasn't thinking straight. “Your baby is missing! Lana isn't even sick months old yet! And she's out there with random people. Who knows if she's still alive?!”I stood.up immediately. “My daughter is alive and no one has killed her and no one will kill her. Why can't you just trust me on this?”“Trust you? Do you know what you're saying? How can you talk about a party when your baby is out there missing? How insensitive can you be? What is wrong with you?”I didn't w
