KAYAWhen I woke up, the sun's rays were pouring into the window and directly into my eyes.It was so hot and I was so damn sure that the rain that had made me come with these women didn't end up falling.I sat up on the bed and thought about my life for a moment before getting up to use the bathroomIt took me a moment to realize that I had been waiting for Milo to run into the room.As I took my shower, I wondered what they wanted to speak to me about. They said they weren't weird but that was what they always said before they stuffed you in a lot and cooked while singing the song about the cauldron.I'd read too many books as a child and it was messing with my head.Since I had let my imagination run wild last night and ended up ruining my own appetite, my stomach was already rumbling by the time I came out of the bathroom.I put on my clothes and made my way out, not exactly knowing where I was going. Since it was day, I could see things clearly now..It didn't seem as scary as i
THIRD PERSON POVThey had agreed to meet up outside the house.She couldn't let them be seen together after what had happened. Even worse, she couldn't let her come to the house after what had happened.To her, it was a mission that had been successful and she was so happy with the outcome..For the first time, she had won over Kaya and she couldn't be happier. She knew that that plan of hers was a genius one because it would sure get them what they wanted.She had made Belle tell the baker to add a lot of chocolate chip, chocolate essence, flavoring and a very thin layer of chocolate with bits in it. She wanted to make sure that Milo didn't survive it.Yes, her plan had been to kill him. She wanted to make sure that Adrian hated Kaya so much that he would want her dead.Emma was already there waiting for her when she got there. As soon as she gave Kaya the cake, she packed up her bags and dropped a resignation letter on the kitchen table and ran out through the back door.She knew th
ADRIANThe doctor finally let me take Milo home the week after. It was beginning to seem like he didn't want me to take him home at all.He kept telling me to come back and finally, I was able to take him home today.He said his throat would take a couple of months to heal which was fine. I knew the extent to which the injury had gone.I was just happy that he was finally coming home today.He however, wasn't happy. I tried to get him to speak to me but he had refused to.When I entered his room this morning, he didn't speak to me and he didn't smile either. So I knew something was wrong, I just didn't know what.I tried speaking to him in the car but he still didn't budge.So I gave it to you and decided to leave it till we got home. There, I would have a better chance of speaking to him.Eventually, we did get home and he got down from the car . I offered to help him get down but he didn't even look at me and he got down himself.Nora came out and he gave her a hug and let her carry
THIRD PERSON POVHank was in a tight situation.Staying up all night to think about how in earth he was going to kill Adrian was taking a toll on him and he couldn't take it any more..He had thought about every way that he could but it wasn't working out. Everything he thought about always ended with him being dead and he couldn't let that happen.He had been thinking about how he would get to Stacy that had been captured by Alpha Adrian. Right now, she was the only one that could help him in this time.But there was no way.There was going to be a meeting tonight because the full moon was tomorrow and for the first time since he joined the Cult, he didn't want to attend a meeting..He knew that they were going to talk about it and it scared him. He has been the one to say that he would be able to kill Adrian but now, he was having issues with it.He didn't have the appetite for food and he couldn't sleep either. With his eyes wide opened, he wondered if he should really give up the
THIRD PERSON POVIt was the day of the Full Moon.The Grandmaster woke up early.Actually, he hadn't been able to sleep at all because he knew that he was one step closer to the grave. In fact, he was already inside it and it was just to cover him up that was left.It was already the day that was his deadline and he hadn't found her yet. He thought he was going to but her wolf hasn't showed up in his radar again and it bothered him.Other special wolves didn't give him headaches like this. Most of the time, before the full moon, they always showed up because their wolf was too eager to come out..But not this one. This one has been very careful right from the start and if not for that chance that they had gotten, they would never have found her at all.He didn't want to say it out loud but he might as well accept defeat. He didn't want to tell his brothers yet but it was the truth.In just a couple of hours, the sun would go down and the moon would come up.That was the time they wer
KAYAWho knew living with witches could be this fun?I woke up in the morning and there was already food on my table. Everything I needed was at my neck and calm and at first, I felt weird about it but now that I've been here for a week, I'm totally enjoying it.Something happened these past few days though. During the night of the full Moon, I hadn't been let out at all throughout the day.Then at night, the witches came to me.“It is time..”My eyes widened as I heard them say that. What did they mean? Were they going to kill me now that they had finally fed me and I was almost as far as a cow?I didn't even want to ask but I had to know..“What do you mean?”“Tonight is the night they plan to take you. So we will be here with you. No matter what they do, they won't get to you.”I didn't understand what they were trying to say.“Wait, who's that? Who are the people coming after me?"“The Cult. It's the night of the Full Moon and you are the prime target so we will stay with you and
KAYA“So what exactly happened after that? Why did the cult position have to be passed down? I mean why couldn't it just be given to someone else?”“Because of the blood that was passed. At the initiation and renewal of their vows to the cult, each of the brothers dropped their blood into a cup and they each drank from it. That covenant that they shared is what hindered them from doing so.”All this was sounding deeper than it was and I just stayed, watching like I didn't understand what was going on.“Okay so if I had a blood tie with one of the members of the cult, why did she choose me to become the special wolf? It doesn't make any sense.”There was nothing that made sense about all this.Claudia spoke up.“She wanted to break the bond. She knew that your father had only two girls and she knew that the cult didn't allow women in so she decided to use this chance to come as the special wolf. Everything that happened was for a reason. Your mother's death, Your father's hatred for yo
KAYAIt had been a week since I came back. Of course, everyone at the pack had seen me and Milo especially was happy.At one point, I thought Nora was the one who missed me the most. It felt so good to be back somewhere that I was appreciated.I didn't feel like an outcast anymore.I'd seen everyone except my arch nemesis. It crossed my mind that I hadn't yet seen her and maybe I shouldn't have thought about that because as soon as I did, our eyes met as she was coming down the stairs and I was sitting in the living room.She looked very surprised and it was obvious that she wasn't expecting me back. She didn't think that I was going to be back of course but I was.I was back and I was here to say.She came down from the stairs and slowly made her way to me.“Nice to see you again.” I greeted her with a smile.”What are you doing here? Does Adrian know you're here? Get out before I call the guards to throw you out.”I laughed and got up from my seat.“Naya , I have to admit. It was a
THIRD PERSON POVMilo looked around him and wondered what was going on.They hadn't been told anything but the guards had come around the day before to round them up and take them outside.That was the first time some of them were seeing sunlight in months and he felt bad for them. He had been seeing it since he basically dined with the king every night.Even though he kept asking where they were being taken to, there was no answer given and batch by batch, they were taken out of the room.Unlike last time, he was blindfolded and transported away from the pack. They drove a while in the carriage and then they stopped at a small pack at the edge of the Bouncy Jackson.Milo had learnt that it was named that because if you dropped anything mistakenly into it, the Jackson would throw it back up. Fools who threw themselves into it were never seen again.They took them to a house and put them there, guarding the door just like back in the palace.Thankfully, Daphne was by his side.“What do
KAYAGetting in didn't prove like much of a hassle to me and before long, I was in and walking around the palace.The next step was to find out where the bastard was so I could kill him once and for all. Golden Blade didn't seem so bad now that I thought about it. I mean, the kingdom looked pretty up to date and it looks to be in very good shape.I don't know what I was expecting but it is not a standard place.A few guards walked last and I brushed to the side and hid.“Where do you think the king ran away to?”“I don't know. We got information that he was in danger and that we had to evacuate him.”You have got to be kidding me. Jackson ran away?! How on earth did he even know that I was coming? The sun was rising in the sky already and Adrian might be on his way with the other soldiers already.This didn't seem right. I mean, I only just got here so who could have been able to deliver a message that fast and who was working for Jackson? Who in my kingdom was giving him information?
KAYALet's just say being the Queen has spoiled me.I wasn't used to walking in the thick bushes and I can't count the amount of times I tripped over a branch or my own two feet. My own shadow scared me.I should have taken guards with me, Adrian told me to but my mind was too fixed on just leaving.Now, I wanted to pee badly and there was no way I was going to do it in these bushes..“How’s it going out there? Don't you wish you had waited for me now?”I had to turn around and make sure that he was not behind me.“No, I do not. It's going very well. It's almost like I was born with the trees. You can call me Mother Nature.”He burst out laughing, knowing I was bullshitting him.“I trust you'll be fine. I fired Shawn.”I had to stop walking and process what he said.“Did you just say you fired Shawn? Why? I mean, I like that but why? I thought you couldn't see anything wrong in him.”He sighed.“I lied. I knew what he was doing, I knew why you didn't like him. I just wanted you to de
ADRIAN“Alpha, what's so urgent that you couldn't wait till morning? What has happened by this time of the night?”“Gentlemen, we are going to war.”That word alone had its weight and as I said that, no one said anything else.“You do not know this but a few weeks ago, on my way to Golden Blade, my son was kidnapped.”Gasps filled the room and I let it sink in.“We were attacked and my son was taken away. The Queen then brought it to my attention that every month since the beginning of the year, kids were taken away from this pack with no trace. No one knows how they were taken and there were no witnesses to tell the story.”Now that I said it out loud, it didn't make sense to me. Kids from my kingdom were being carried away and I had no idea about it. What kind of king did that make me?“We’ve been trying to look for sources to tell us anything and tonight, a letter arrived for the Queen. It was from her former lover and he has confessed to taking the kids. I know him personally and
KAYA“My Queen,It's been so many years since I saw you or heard your sweet voice. You walking out of my life all those years ago, left a big hole in my heart that couldn't be filled with any other woman's love.You were my first love and you'll always remain my first love. I can't deny the fact that I let the years go by without reaching out to you but I was too busy becoming a man, making myself worry of seeing you.And now, I'm proud to say that I have made something of myself. I've turned myself into someone you would be proud of, someone you can call a husband. Everything you possibly want, I have it.All you have to do is just say yes. Let's leave the past behind us, the past never does anyone any good. The mistake I made with Serena was stupid and I agree but you shouldn't have given up on us just like that. You should have continued to show me how much you love me and maybe I would have come back to you.Notwithstanding, I'm ready now. I'm ready to love you and love all of you
KAYA“So you're telling me Golden Blade took him and other kids?”We were all having dinner and Nora sat across from me.“Yeah, I've been doing what I can to find out who Golden Blade's Alpha is but for some reason, it's seeming like some top secret. Almost no one knows.”And that's why I'll keep saying that it seems fishy. Because there's no kingdom that would hide their king.“I’ll do what I can as well.”I couldn't stop looking at Nora . When she left all those years ago, after Aaron left, I didn't think things would be the same.“Do you have to go?” I asked her as I watched her pack.looked at me.“Yes, I do. I've been by Adrian's side for years and he's giving me my freedom. I'd like to move around for a while, see places and things, maybe even live with humans, find love but I'll be back.”I knew I couldn't stop her but I wish I could. But now she is back. The years had done her, she looked more mature, like she had seen a lot in life.“Adrian , how have things been?”Since s
KAYA“Adrian, wait. You have to listen to me. You can't just do things without thinking far ahead.”He turned to me so sharply that I almost bumped into him.“What else is there to think about, Kaya? That bastard took my son and other kids and you think I'm just going to sit back and do nothing?!”“That is exactly the reason why you should not be rash. He has the upper hand here and I fear he would not hesitate to use it if he's pushed. I'm very sure he knows who Milo is and do you think if you attack him, he won't use him as leverage? You're putting Milo at risk so please, be careful and think about it.”He finally let out a breath and sat on the bed.“I don't even know who the Alpha is. Golden Blade has never shown their Alpha. Their Beta is always the one who attends meetings and all that.”That didn't make sense.“And you didn't find it weird after all this time? It didn't occur to you that there might be something more to it?”He shrugged.“I have a kingdom to rule. I don't spend
THIRD PERSON POVMilo knew the gravity of what he had done and luckily for him, none of the other kids had been stupid enough to bend to the pressure.Ever since the guards realized that the girl was missing, they were questioning everyone one after the other and Milo feared that sooner or later, somebody would fold but so far,no one said anything.He just had to do what he did. He needed to send a message to his father to let him know that he was fine and also to his mother, who he knew would be very worried. He knew the situation at home would be very otense with his father looking for him.Even though the situation here was harsh for him to adapt to, he tried his best in doing so and with the help of the friend that he made, Daphne, he navigated being in this place.“Do you think the girl made it home?” Daphne asked.“I hope she did. Right now, she's the only hope we have in other people finding out where we are. “He knew it wouldn't take them for his father to realize what he wa
KAYAFrom the way she was talking, I was afraid to ask for the number of kids that were there but I had to.“How many kids were there? Do you know?”She nodded.“At the time I got there, there were thirty kids. By the time I left, there were seventy five.”How in the world did that amount of kids go missing and Adrian and I heard nothing about it?“Seventy five.”That was a large number. Too large.“And all the kids are from this pack. We talk to each other so we asked around when the guards left the room at night. Every month, they bring a new batch of kids but a week ago, they brought in only one boy.”My ears perked up at that.“What did he look like?”I could see that she waa trying hard to remember.“Dark hair, dark eyes. Around my age. He doesn't really speak but he often speaks to the guards on our behalf. He's the only one who has ever spoken to the master.”“The master? Who's that?”She looked at her mother before she answered.“He doesn't really come in. I've only heard his
