Kayla’s POVThe sky blue denim jacket and ripped black jeans Sapphire got for me made me look really cool somehow. The only thing that could’ve made me look complete was a shoe that would fit me but Al of them had a smaller sized foot. I ate my breakfast in my room and thankfully I wasn’t the one who asked for it to be served in my room. Sapphire brought it to me on her and left to join her family in the dining room. I don’t know if it’s because my wolf is also called Sapphire, but she just seemed to understand me perfectly. I tidied up my room and was about to carry my empty plate to them in the kitchen and probably even wash it myself when Sapphire came inside my room and shut the door. “ Quick, put these on, and let’s go.” She said, tossing me a pair of white sneakers and using both of her index fingers to get her hair out of her face. “ Umm…where’d you get these?” I asked, smiling and cringing a little. “ What? They’re brand new!”“ I’m sure they are but, I hope it doesn’t be
Hector’s POV I left Alpha Jax’s office feeling very angry and infuriated. I hated how they questioned me as if I had not spent a great deal of my life protecting them from harm. How could they even suspect me of bringing someone who would spy on them? After all I’ve done?The fact that they pressured me so much that I had to tell them the “ real reason “ why I helped Kayla was just unbelievable. Couldn’t they just believe me if I said that everything was fine and that Kayla wasn’t a threat? I was pissed, so in my anger, I told them what they wanted to hear. Kayla is just like me. I’ve known this since she found me in the woods and told me about herself. I just couldn’t believe it at the time, or rather, I chose not to believe it. “ Hector!” Sapphire was calling after me as I headed straight for Mystik high school where Alpha Jax had made me take a full course like any student at the school. Sapphire was among my newly made list of people I’m furious with because I told her to show
Kayla’s POVEveryone was still gathered around Sapphire even though Hector left her alone to deal with the aftereffects herself. What an asshole! Everyone knows that when an Alpha forces his people to submit to him they are the only ones who can release them from that state, yet Hector just left her like that!Several people tried to get Sapphire to snap out of it as she still crouched and wrapped her arms around herself as she shook and said, “ I’m sorry…I’m sorry,” on repeat, but she wouldn’t budge. “ Someone has to beg Hector to release her.” A girl said. Everything seemed so strange to me. It seemed like the people here are a lot nicer than at my school in Redwolf. They were genuinely worried for Sapphire and that was saying something. Unlike in Redwolf high where they would’ve just laughed and left Sapphire to her fate.“ Can anyone explain to me why we are all standing here as if there’s not gonna be any classes today?” a tall redhead woman said as she approached the scene of c
Kayla’s POV There is something extremely fishy about Hector. He won’t tell me anything, he’s avoiding me and Sapphire doesn’t even think he is responsible for what happened to her yesterday. Today will be my first day in Mystik high and from what I gathered yesterday, this school is awesome. Sure, they have their “cool students clique” but even they are nice. They seem to have this serious desire to help weaker wolves get stronger but there is a reason for this. Mystik pack is in hiding but they’ve been able to develop the pack so much that they could take out another pack if they had the numbers. But since they don’t have the numbers, they have to work with what they’ve got, so, they can’t single out Omegas. They need them to get stronger. Sapphire didn’t tell me this, I figured it out on my own. Since this school seemed better than my previous one, I was actually excited to get to school and make more than one friend. Also, since I’m an Omega – by choice, Sapphire thinks I’ll ma
Hector’s POVI didn’t want to see Kayla after the way she accused me of forcing Sapphire to submission but after thinking about it carefully, I knew she wasn’t to blame. Initially, I believed that I had somehow managed to break normal wolf protocols, forcing Sapphire to submit to me but I saw someone out of the ordinary. It was Max. Max is Alpha Jax's firstborn son. Unlike the rest of his siblings, Max is very cunning and deceptive. He must’ve been the one who did it to Sapphire and everyone thought it was me. I didn’t have any proof though, but I knew it couldn’t be me. That morning, I got up from my bed feeling…too strong. Weren’t wolves supposed to grow weary as they get older? Instead, my case seems like the opposite. After having my bath, I got ready for school. Since I’m a gold-tier student, I’m meant to go to school only when Alpha Jax wouldn’t need me. Today was that day. I had received Kayla’s uniform sewn yesterday according to my assumptions of her body. I was too angry
26Hector’s POV “ Aren’t you staying for breakfast?” Theresa asked but I refused, afraid that I’d mess up and do something stupid. Shit, I can’t even control myself around her for even one second, what will I do if she ends up randomly in my Tier? No, I have to ensure this doesn’t happen. I left the house and headed straight for school. Now that Devon, Izzy, and Kaitlin were still in Redwolf, I’ve become a loner. I’ve never actually missed their company this much, they’ve always been a nuisance to me but their duties to Alpha Kent are…quite important so I can’t blame them. The administrative head of the school, Lana, wasn’t around. It was him I needed to help make sure that Kayla doesn’t end up in my class but now that wouldn’t be possible. . I looked at my phone, there were barely thirty minutes left till when school starts so why wasn’t she around? “ Okay. Calm down, here’s what will happen.” I said to myself as I stepped out of school. “ You shouldn’t interfere with anything. J
Hector’s POVI could sense that Kayla made it to school. Her scent filled the place and it was intense that I knew I had to find her, even if she doesn’t end up in my Tier. Even if she’s not my mate, I can’t deny this feeling anymore. I tracked her scent until I got to my Tier, she was about to get unknowingly recruited to Barbara’s stupid “cult” of hot girls. Good thing I came in time and just what was Sapphire standing there for? Couldn’t she have stopped Kayla from making such mistakes? Good thing she didn’t anyway, now I’ll have to. I sent off barbara without many words spoken and when I turned around to face Kayla, I was so pleased to see her. She left her hair wavy as she usually did in Redwolf but the sexy makeup stayed, not that she needed makeup to make me lose my mind anyway, and the uniform, it fit perfectly, showing off her small curves. “ Come with me,” I said in a tone that surprised me. I sounded so charming, I knew it because of how her big, beautiful, brown eyes wi
Hector's POV“Where the hell is she?” I said to myself, tracing Kayla’s scent. I initially tracked her scent to the bathroom but now, it seemed like she was somewhere else, somewhere very far from school. I shut my eyes and focused on her scent and when I realized where she was, I froze. What the hell is she even doing there? I ran as fast as I could to Glass lake, that was where she was but it’s a very isolated place for a reason. I made it so. If she’s gone there then I’m done for. Kayla will know my secret. I need to stop her. Kayla’s POVThis was very confusing for me. I waited for Hector in the bathroom, hoping that he would join me. My wolf, Sapphire was losing her mind so fiercely that I wasn’t able to stop her when she took control and I ran in a direction I wasn’t familiar with. When I opened my eyes some moments later I was in this thick, dark, fog-filled forest. What does this even mean? “ Sapphire, what is this place?” I asked, trying to feel my way out of the forest
Kayla's POVAfter a perfectly calm night with Hector. Alpha Drey struck, just like I predicted. We woke up to whispers rather than screams and being that my hearing was stronger than Hector's, I could hear a lot more than he could but I guess the little he heard was enough to get him worried. " What do they mean by Aidan is leading a war to us? We're the one bringing the war to him." Hector said. His eyes glowed as he looked at the clock in my room and shook his head. " it's literally 2 am. I can't even get one last sleep."" Oh, so you slept?" I asked and he turned to look at me. " Of course, I slept my love," he said softly while I looked away just in case I blushed. This wasn't the time for me to be romantic or receiving romantic gestures. It was a time for me to be alert and ready to fight anyone who is in the way of the way the world should be." I wanted to dream of a future where you and I are nothing but happy together. That's what I wanted and I swear I was just having that d
THE DAY HAS COMEKayla's POVEverything is set. We have gotten every single Alpha from all packs briefed on the battle we are currently fighting against Alpha Drey. We need to win so that we can have the Alpha Trinity like the way it used to be. That way there will be more balance within all packs and Nova will perform a ceremony officially naming Aidan, Max, and Hector as the Alpha Trinity.She also found a way to kill Alpha Drey without harming Aidan and everything seemed to be going smoothly. At first, we thought we failed to convince the people to trust us but eventually, they started coming out to the woods where Hector had taught us to shift for the first time. That was where he chose to host the feast. All those children who were sick were also brought to Hector and he made them feel better by reversing whatever spell that was on them before and that just earned him an extra point from the people. Everyone was seated around the huge bonfire that was set up at the center. Tha
Kayla's POV" You're what?" I gasped when I found the person who screamed like that. Hector was behind me the whole time and he wasn't saying anything. " I'm pregnant" she squealed. I didn't understand, she is nineteen but excited about a pregnancy. Is she ready for this? I guessed that she must be seeing the way she was so happy about the news. Max on the other hand was terrified. He didn't say it but his face told the story." Wow, congratulations Sapphire," I said, hugging her but she didn't hug me back." I know you don't think I'm ready for a baby" " I just think maybe you should discuss this with Max. I mean, how did you find out anyway?" " The child's heartbeat and yes, I have already talked about it with Max. He's so terrified!" She said laughing a little too loudly before she noticed Hector standing behind me." Hector...are you okay?" She asked and Hector nodded before he playfully poked her stomach and said, " guess I'm going to be an uncle soon" " Yeah, and maybe one d
Kayla's POVI had been looking for Hector for thirty minutes before I found him. He was at his spot just like I thought and was just sitting alone on the ground." Hector, are you okay?" I asked and he nodded. I could tell that he nodded even though his back was facing me." So...did you get to do it?" I asked, moving carefully towards him because I still feared that he was a little bit on edge. " No" he finally said as I stood in front of him. " How did you stop the kill mode?"" Suthee," he said simply but he didn't look at me. His eyes were a little bit red. He cried before I got here." Suthee? That's what you said to me to stop me before." " Yeah," he said and sniffed." I really wanted to kill him though but I found out he - as in Aidan has left Mystik pack in search of Max and Sapphire. He didn't know they were here already."" Oh..." I said, not knowing what I should say to him. Aside from the fact that his eyes were red, there was no way of telling if he was angry, upset,
Kayla's POVI watched as Nova slept, Sapphire and I successfully removed the creature inside her and had it burnt, and because of the trauma, she experienced we had to inject her so she could sleep. I felt so bad for her because she's been through a lot and seemed like someone who has never had anyone to hold on to. I mean Hector is there but he's her son and there are things she may not want to share with him because she doesn't want him to feel burdened by anything. I am talking about a partner for her. Someone, she can lean on. She has no one like that. Sapphire and I were talking about it a while ago before she went to find people who will help us dispose of those bodies. We planned on holding a brief meeting, telling the people exactly what is going on and what they should be on the lookout for because as Max said, we have to go through this together and that means we all have a part to play in this matter. Now all I was thinking about was Hector. I felt so uneasy about him r
Kayla's POV" Okay, so there's an Alpha Trinity, and Aidan is one of them, Max is also one of them. I get that part" I said after digesting the heavy info Hector failed to tell me yesterday after our night together. I chose not to be mad at him for it because, well...that would get me distracted from the issue at hand." What I don't get however is how that explains why there are people mauled to no recognition in the bathtub while Aidan is gone," I said and Max nodded." Sorry, I digressed a little," he said before he continued speaking, " You see I believe that the last member of the Trinity is Alpha Drey" " That makes no sense. He should be around the same age as you and Aidan."" Yeah he should, my mom has umm...known him before," Hector said and Sapphire seemed to know more about this " knowledge" Hector's mother had of Alpha Drey. Also, why does she know him? " I know but what if one of the Alpha trios betrayed them and asked to be brought earlier? He came back earlier and star
Hector's POVWhen I left Kayla and left her locked in my basement. Every inch of me felt so wrong about it. That woman is strong, I know it. She can take good care of herself no doubt but I couldn't let her go on kill mode. What if I'm not there to control or stop it, I don't even know how I did it the last time. Immediately I came out of my house, the first person I saw was Tia, of course, she couldn't see me because I was still playing invisible. " There's no way that boy in there is Aidan" I heard her say as she walked past me with another woman. I was surprised she even had company. Since she came to Mystik pack seeking a truce, she's been left on her own. No one speaks to her and no one speaks of her. I had always wondered why she was so abandoned by even her own pack and I got my answer three weeks ago from Becka who has been in Redwolf for a while. She said that Tia broke their trust as a pack by ratting out her husband's location when those masked men came looking for him.
Kayla's POVAfter explaining to Sapphire the reason why she can't just walk around freely, she was shocked and Theresa was losing her mind about it. " Sapphire please do as they say. I just got you back, I can't let anything happen to you," she said and Sapphire just covered her face in disappointment. " What about Max?" Aubrey asked." Max is on his way with some more kids" Sapphire responded sounding so devastated about everything. "How long do you think it will take for him to get here?"" I think, maybe in a couple of hours. What do we do now? I can't just sit here and do nothing."" No, you aren't, and neither am I. We have to end this whole thing with him here and now "" What?! You're not even prepared, please don't risk my daughter's life for this momentary feeling of determination you're having." Theresa warned me." Okay...but the more we remain quiet about this, the more everything will get worse. Don't you know that he's planning something right now even as we speak?""
Kayla's POVI ran as fast as I could to Theresa's house but when I got there she wasn't home, neither was anyone else. So I just sat on the steps and ran my hands through my hair as I tried to process what just happened. I almost killed Tia! What would've happened if Hector didn't stop me? Aidan would hate me forever and I would hate myself forever because even though I hold a grudge against her, I would rather not kill her for it. I want her to live to see me accomplish everything she probably never thought I would. I don't know how long I sat there, I just heard some footsteps and wiped my eyes dry. " Kayla?", " Mom, it's... Kayla." " Hi," I said, still wiping tears off of my face so I look less pathetic. Azalea looked surprised to see me, Aubrey just stood silently beside her mother who still smiled at me as always. When I saw how consistent Theresa's smile always is, I started feeling teary-eyed again. " my child," she said, dropping her bag on the ground as she crouched and h
