Kayla's POV" Hi Kayla" I heard him say and I got so angry. How dare he come here after what he did to me? Acting like we're best buds or as if we've moved past the words he told me that night. " What the hell is he doing here?" I asked, trying my best not to sound angry but I didn't do so well." Umm...I umm...I and the others decided to -""- speak for yourself, please. We're just here for our people" Kaitlin cut in. He sighed and licked his injured lips before he said, " I mean that I came here with a bit of bad news"" It's very bad news if we're to be honest about this" Devon admitted while Hector looked at Aidan, folding his arms as he did so. " There it is," I said to myself when I saw how Hector claimed he did not want to breathe the same air as Hector yet here he is standing and looking at Aidan without him seething with anger like he used to whenever he saw Aidan." So what's this news then?" He asked Aidan." Well umm...there's been an attack -"" - Why are you always the
Kayla's POV" What do you mean by that? Wolves don't have magic." Sapphire asked, breaking the silence that Hector's statement caused." They don't have magic but they can use items of magic. One supplied to them by a sorceress." He explained." But that makes no sense, sorceresses are all dead. Our stupid wolf ancestors had them killed several years back!" She argued but Hector looked at me and then at Nova. I figured it out finally. Nova goes to Bloom pack to sell her paintings but it seems she's been selling other things too, like whatever it is that Aidan's parents used in drugging me or inducing me to think that Aidan rejected me. I was probably talking to myself the entire time, thinking that Aidan was rejecting me - but it felt so real! Now it makes sense. No wonder I was so shocked by everything that happened that night because when I went to spy on Aidan and Tia's conversation, he was telling them that he would never leave me, only for me to see him in my room saying cruel t
Kayla's POVIt's been a week since my fight with Hector. I don't even know if I regret it or if I should be happy that I called him out for lying to me - I mean, I trusted him! But I do know that I'm not interested in whatever nonsense he will eventually say to me because he will definitely come back to me apologize and my anger hasn't subsided when one bit, maybe that's what he's waiting for and hoping on.What I'm more concerned about rather is what he and Nova have concluded concerning the attacks. It's the most stupid plan I've ever seen anyone come up with but they're the ones in charge so I have no say in the matter, even though I am technically a Rogue because of my parents." Hey, Kayla. Aren't you a bit excited that your friend from Redwolf will be here soon?" Sapphire asked as I sat on my bed and ate but she didn't say anything to her immediately. I was so silent that the only sound heard was that of the ceiling fan whirring with all its might since there was power today.I
Aidan's POVAfter being threatened by Hector, I stood and watched as the first set of visitors crossed the fog barrier that hid Rogue Town from being discovered by other wolves." Are you sure that the fog stops? This is ridiculous!" I heard someone say and those of us standing in front of the border laughed because we could relate. I had the same experience with Devon and the other girls but they just told me to keep going, that we would soon get there. I knew some impatient fools would not keep moving, they would turn around thinking that this was all a waste of time but still, I hoped in my heart that they would have a little bit of faith in whoever was leading them. " Wait, I see something!" The same voice said, excitedly and we started to make out their figures as they kept going through the fog." You do right? hear that guys? He sees something!" Another voice yelled. " Yeah, maybe he saw that this is a total waste of time!" Another voice said, this was a woman's voice and she
Kayla's POVI was so lost. Lost in his touch, his kisses, his body...his scent, I didn't even realize that someone was staring at us the whole time. " Should I even be surprised right now?" Nova said as she folded her hands and watched both me and Hector who was on the verge of taking off each other's clothes. " I'm sorry. I don't even know why-"" I need to talk to you, Kayla." She cut in. I noticed how cold and distant she was being to me ever since Hector and I chose to have sex in the woods instead of heeding her call. I couldn't bring myself to apologize to her because I didn't know how she would see it. You know, some people appreciate it when you acknowledge that you're wrong and ask for forgiveness, others act like your apology is an insult to them, and I kind of just assumed that Nova was the latter." I guess you'll come to see me tomorrow afternoon right?" She said and I got down from Hector's body and shook my head. " No, no. I...um... I'm gonna see you right now. I di
As I sat in Nova's room, I began to recall what I saw while she cast a spell around the room that would prevent anyone else from hearing what was being said. And so I started:" That day, after you called me Avila, I fainted and found myself in a different reality. It felt as if I opened my eyes but where I found myself was a bit strange, yet familiar. I saw myself in what looked like a battlefield. But this wasn’t just any battlefield it was one I’ve seen before. What didn’t make sense about this sight before me was that I’d never been in any battle before so how is this familiar to me? There were thousands of people lying on the floor dead and a woman was standing in the center with a man behind her. She had red hair and her eyes were green, she was dressed in golden armor and as she walked past the dead bodies, the wind blew her long thick hair back, making her Aura and presence so intimidating and powerful as she walked. The two of them walked past the dead bodies until they go
Kayla 's POV" Nova, you're scaring me," I said as I watched her cover her face in her palms. So what if he made her show me too much? Why is that such a bad thing?" Kayla, you have to go," she said, getting up from where she sat and pacing up and down the room. " What do you mean by I have to go? Where would I go?" I asked, feeling afraid and very upset by her words. She of all people knows that there is no way I can just leave like that. Especially because I don't know anyone. " I don't know Kayla...I just have this very horrible feeling that they are coming after you right now as we speak" she said, grabbing me by my shoulders as she spoke. Her eyes were desperately begging me to act on her words but she made no sense to me! There was absolutely no way that I would leave everything I have here just because of a nameless and faceless enemy." How do you even know this? Is just a bad feeling right?"" No Kayla! This isn't just some bad feeling - this is the worst! I know this becau
Hector's POVI was so mad at myself for infuriating Kayla. I should've approached the matter differently instead of trying to make her forget about it just by seducing her. Honestly, I didn't know what I did that was so bad. I love her that's something I've never once held back on telling her yet she didn't seem to understand that that was the reason why I couldn't tell her about Aidan. If you love someone, wouldn't you do all within your power to make sure that you never lose them? That was why I never told her that Aidan never really rejected her. Besides, she acted as if I had known about this for months when it was barely even a week. " Hello?" I said, picking up the call that I'd been avoiding while I was thinking about this Kayla situation. " What is it?" I asked when I answered the call. " It's the men who just crossed the fog barrier"" Okay?" " They're not one of us. "" Of course they're not, they're literally from another pack, Caleb"" No, they're not even from any of
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
