Kira's POV.

As I slept, someone repeatedly kept throwing stones at my window. Sleeping in the cold was something I loved and I didn't want to stop for even a second. But the constant distortion made me wake up. I was mad.

I opened the door of my window to see who the fuck was making that noise. I almost yelled out, but when I saw Christine, I mellowed down. She was dressed in a black dress and her hair was properly spruced up. It made me wonder what the big event was, then I remembered the party she had earlier talked about.

Oh crap!

“You switched off your phone?“ She looked angry while I looked like a guilty kid with my head slightly popped out my window.

" I had no idea” That was the only lie that could pop up in my head and it was a stupid one.

"I'm coming in”

“How the fuck are you going to climb with your heels on?" I hadn't finished talking when I saw a heel flying towards me at full speed. I was able to dodge without getting hurt.

“Fuck! Christine” I groaned in annoyance as I w

    Kira's POV “I thought you were leaving?"Christine asked as she saw me approaching where she sat.“I guess I'm stuck with you after all."“ You won't regret it" she beamed, but I rolled my eyes at her. “would you like?" she stretched a bottle of wine to me.“No, I'm fine" After getting threatened, I needed to be as alert as possible. Getting drunk was a no-no. I was going to survive this night as long as I stayed away from Xavier and also mind my business.“Hey, there pretty" I heard from behind me and I turned to look at the person already pissed.“Fuck off"I glared at the blonde guy who scowled at me before leaving.“Be nice" Christine frowned at me, but I didn't care. I was having such a wonderful sleep, but I was dragged to a party where my life was on the line and I was expected to just be cool with it.My phone vibrated from my purse and I brought it out. It was a text from an unknown number.“If you want to know everything about Ken, come to the school's foyer"I looked at the

    Ken's POV I staggered to my house that night. I had healed, but I was still exhausted. The hatred I had for myself was immense. I almost hurt her. But what was she doing in school at that time? She was supposed to be at the party.When I smelled her blood, I went insane. I lost all atoms of reasoning I had in my body and I rushed to her. I was desperate to get the taste of her blood. The self-control I had been learning to stop me from hurting humans went out the window.I didn't know what would have happened if Austin didn't come to save her. I wasn't myself.I was cursed. I couldn't love her. I was a beast and loving her meant continuously hurting her. That was my definition of love.I dragged my feet up the stairs to my room. I opened the door of my room and walked in.There I saw it, the unfinished drawing I had of her. I ran my hand through it. Maybe I should have never met her because she was driving me crazy, making it hard for me to go with my initial plan of staying away fro

    Kira's POVI raised my hand to knock on the door. My hand felt stiff for the first few seconds. It was due to the nervousness I felt. I wasn't supposed to feel that way, but I did.After multiple trials, I finally succeeded in bringing my hand to the door. I knocked multiple times and waited for door to openIt didn't take long before the door flung open and my eyes met with a furious-looking Ken. The moment he saw me, his eyes softened.“What are you doing here?" he asked. The tone of his voice gave off panic.“I Uhm..." I searched my head for an appropriate answer. I was blank because his intense gaze was kept on me, preventing me from speaking. “Came to check on you" was the only word that could make its way out of my lips."I am fine” he tried to shut the door in my face, but I was quick to stop him from doing so."Mirabel please leave” He begged. He looked disturbed and restless. “Why what's wrong?" I asked, confused. I had barely said anything and the last quarrel we had wasn

He had been, I wouldn't say stalking, but he had been poking his head in my business lately and that pissed me off.I didn't want him around because I was scared of him. He was still my major suspect of what happened that night. I wanted to stay as far away from him as possible, but he was impossible to deal with.“You can't keep ignoring me forever,” he said, ``Already catching up to me. I was walking as fast as I could, but he just kept getting closer without putting in any effort. When he had gotten to where I was, he placed his arm around my shoulder and I stiffened. His closeness was killing and I didn't think he realized that. I couldn't stand his annoying self so I kept on walking, hoping and praying that he would leave, but he was relentless.

Christine called out from behind me while I walked at full speed. “At least tell me what I did wrong" she ran after me and stopped in front of me.“Mirabel for Christ's sake. Tell me what's up" she pouted and I rolled my eyes at her.“You invited me to that stupid party, now Xavier wants my head”“Woah" Christine exclaimed. “You don't mean that, do you?"“Of course I do. He wants to end me. Like, kill me. Wipe me out of the face of the earth"“Xavier doesn't seem like that type of guy Mirabel," she said, finding it hard to believe.Of course, he had blinded her eyes with his charms. Only I knew how dangerous he was. I would have been dead if it wasn't for Austin.“I was almost killed that night during the party by your loving prince charming and he threatened me this afternoon"Christine cocked her eyebrows in confusion. At that point, I was certain it was going to be hard to convince her.“Suit yourself if you don't believe me" I walked away, b

I heard my name and I froze, turning to see who it was.“Ken?" That was not how I wanted my voice to sound, but it did.

    FinaleThe next morning I woke up to a text from Christine that read; “come online” I still had a lot of sleep in my eyes, but when I was able to check why she told me to come online, the sleep left my eyes. It felt as though I was dreaming, but I wasn’t. Behold, behind my screen was my older self and there was a caption that said missing.What the actual fuck? I asked myself. The last time I checked, I didn’t exist anymore, so there was no was no way someone who didn’t exist was declared missing.I called Christine again because it wasn’t adding at all. The worse thing was, it was all over the internet. They said I had been missing for 6 months and that was the duration in which I had lived in my new body.“Did you see the girl? Remember her right? She asked even before I had the chance to and that only succeeded in adding to my confusion.“Remember?

I brought it out from where I kept it firmly in my pockets and answered the call. it was from Christine. “Mirabel” she called out the moment I answered the call. “ken is awake,” she said and my heart skipped a beat. What the fuck did she say. How was that even possible? I asked myself. Well, there was only one way for me to find out. I ended the call and was about to jump down from my window once more when the door to my room suddenly opened. My mind jumped out of my body, but it calmed down when I realize it was just Rebecca, but it picked up pace when I realize I was about to do something that she had warned me not to do. “what are you doing?” she asked and I knew it was already late. If I wanted to see ken, I had to make up my mind to go against her. “I’m sorry mum,” I said and jumped down and landed perfectly from a building as high as that with

She almost choked on the cigarette between her lips.“What the fuck Kira” she frowned at me, but I didn’t care. I was desperate at that point.“I need to tell you something” I repeated like she hadn’t heard me the first time. How desperate was I. but why I wouldn’t when I got the news of me leaving this body? I needed to let her know incise me bumped into her in my next life, she wouldn’t see me as a freak.I looked around to see if there was anyone lurking around because I was most definitely going to be called a freak if they heard what I was about to say. I was certain Christine was going to think of me the same way, but I had to tell her.“I am right here” the frown on her face hardened and I had to mutter a little sorry to make her be less mad at me for almost killing her seconds ago.“I am living this body” I said in the lowest tone possible” I said, but the look on her face didn’t c

He could hear me calling but he chose to play deaf and pretend I was important at all and it pissed me off.I tapped him hard on the shoulder when I got to where he was and he turned to look at me in frustration. “Don’t you dare look at me like that? I am the one who has the right to be angry” I said and he rolled his eyes at me as though I was the one who had the problem. He was the one trying to take my mate away from me.“you can't tell me how to look at you” he shot at me. true, but there was countless way he didn’t have to act like a jerk. Why did he have to be so mean all the time, like I was the cause of his many problems?Where are you taking ken to?” I asked he replied plainly and tried to walk inside the car, but I stopped him by holding his hand. He turned to look at me with a lot of disgust in his eyes.“do you seem to realize you have no right to be a part of his life anymore,e,” he said and I scoffed.What

    Chapter 99 “hey you” my feet went as fast as they could at the sight of the witch. I totally forgot I had to follow Christine home at the sight of her and I started chasing after her instead. The sound of shuffling footsteps gave me the clue that Christine was just behind me running as well. “Hey!” I knew she could hear me because she wasn’t deaf and had no earphone plugged in, but she kept walking as though she didn’t know I was talking to her. Why did she have to be a bitch all the time_ the kind that knew the perfect way to get me mad I increased my speed and surprisingly that bitch increased her speed? Before I knew it, she was running and I knew I would be damned if I let her run off like that. I and Christine also increased our speed. “Hey stop!” I yelled. It would have been better if I at least knew her name, but I didn’t and that made it weird for me. She kept running until she got into the school female’s toilet and she ran in. “what the actual fuck” said Christine who w

    Chapter 98I didn’t sleep a wink at night. Apart from the fact I was angry at the witch for playing with me the previous day. I couldn’t also sleep due to the strong migraine I developed due the beating I received from Bella. I shouldn’t have concluded that I was any match for her.“Oh my God what happened to your face?” I heard a voice and I turned to look at Christine. I had no idea I had walked past her. My mind was only fixed on one person and that was the witch who I didn’t know her name.And yes, I had forgotten to put makeup on my face because I didn’t see the point. Life was almost meaningless because ken wasn’t there.“I got into a fight” I could tell from how her eyes widened that she was surprised. Yes I wasn’t the type to get into a fight, but with the overwhelming frustration and unvented anger, it was hard not lose my mind over a slight provocation.“What the actual fuck” she let out.“Ken’s sister” I let out a distressed air. “That bitch thinks I am the reason he didn’t

    Chapter 97Bella’s POVIt was hours since I woke up and I hadn’t moved an inch from my bed. Life made no sense to me anymore. It felt as though I should lay in my bed forever and wallow in my misery for eternity. Maybe that way, I will be closer to my brother who was not awake anymore. I tossed to the other side of my bed as I heard a buzz from my phone. It was no doubt from Xavier. He was probably calling to check if I was still breathing.I ignored the text at first but when I became too much, I groaned in frustration as I tossed to pick it up. “Bella for fuck sake, if you won’t take my call, at least reply my text” he said and I rolled my eyes. Did he expect me to be okay when I had a brother that was prone to be lifeless for almost 20 years or even more?The moment I tossed my phone to the bed in anger, I heard it ring by my side. “Fuck you Xavier” I groaned in frustration, but didn’t ignore the call this time. I knew he was going to keep calling me until I finally took the call,

I didn’t wipe it off before the sped he used to pull me back deterred me from doing so. His eyes softened the more when he noticed I was crying.“Do you realize how worried I was about you” he asked and I just sobbed. Not caring if we were being stared at. “I went to your house several times and your mother wouldn’t even let me see you”I placed my hand on my head as I sighed. Poor woman. She must have gone through a lot. Now I was planning of leaving her again. No wonder there was a lot of hurt in her eyes as she yelled at me. “She was just scared” I blurted out.“So where did you go Mirabel” he asked more worriedly because I wouldn’t give him a reply.“Can we talk outside instead? I am not comfortable with these stares” I said and I noticed how reluctant he was. Almost as though he didn’t trust me enough to stay put and have a conversation with him out

Well whatever he is to you, I am not coming to that house” I said with all seriousness, but she ended up chuckling. It wasn’t as though I hated him. He just had a way of making me feel so uncomfortable. His eyes held a lot of hatred each time he gave up at me and I couldn’t help but wonder why Christine saving me pissed him off so much.“He is not home and he not coming back anytime soon, so you have nothing to worry about” she assured him.“I am not just not comfortable with him around” I said truthfully.“He is not always like this, inside he is just a cute bunny” she said and I rolled my eyes.“I knew you’d say something like that. Anyway imp almost there”“Alright” she hung up the call.After about 5 minutes, I was already at Christine’s house. I packed my car by the road side and made it across the street.Standi
