Austin's POVI barged into Alpha Stanley's room and he looked at me in confusion. He stood from where he was seated and walked towards where I was.“You knew Marcus was around, why didn't you tell me?" I asked in annoyance. He knew Marcus was a major threat to the pack and as the beta of the pack, I deserved to know.“He has not done anything out of bound,” he said, but that further pissed me off"Are you being serious? He turned a girl at my school” I blurted out and watched as Stanley's eyes changed from casual to astonished."What do you mean by that?” He asked. He was finally interested in the conversation.“Trust me I know a vampire when I see one" “What if Marcus wasn't the one who attacked her?"“You know there's a probability of that happening"“And who's this girl?"“Christine. She doesn't look human anymore. I bumped into her and she was so uncomfortable. My wolf sensed something different in her”“Well, I can't do anything about it" Stanley shrugged.“What about Marcus?"
Kira's POVI tossed to the other side of the bed. It was cooler than the former, but it soon became hot again. I was uncomfortable and wanted sleep, but I couldn't get it. I didn't have a problem getting sleep, but it felt different that night.Out of frustration, I sat up from my bed. There was a sound by my window and I turned to look at it with my tired eyes. I gasped. There was someone there, but I couldn't decipher who. The person was so swift that the moment I turned, no one was there anymore.I stood up from my bed immediately and wore my flip-flops. I was sure I saw something and I was scared to my bones. Someone had been watching me while I slept.I ran to a part of the room which was far from the window and stood there as my heartbeat increased rapidly. I couldn't help but ask who it was and what the person wanted from me.Slowly, I started slipping through the wall to my window side, carefully not to make a noise. I wanted to take the person by surprise. I got to my window
I opened the car and crawled out of it. Where I was secluded, so it was way better then. It was the best time for Katrina to come, but it was painful as hell. I wanted her, but I didn't know it was going to be this painful. It made sense because I was in a new body that hadn't shifted before.Sweat dripped from my body's blood too. I crawled on the bare hard floor, trying to get to the wood that was just by the side of the road. I wished I had known I was going to get my wolf, I was going to prepare myself for the pain that was going to come from that, but I was taken by surprise.Sand stuck to my body as I crawled until I got to a place suitable enough for me to shift.As if it had been waiting for me to settle down before striking again. I heard another crack, but I didn't know what bone had twisted again. I cried out in pain as I squeezed my eyes shut and clenched my fist, trying my best to fight the pain, but it was impossible.All the bones in my body broke. The skin of my finge
Austin's POV.It was cowardly of me to leave after finding my mate, but I couldn't face her especially when I had called her a liar multiple times. She was once a human, but I was certain my wolf sensed her wolf.How did it happen? The most amusing part was how she turned out to be my mate. I had thought I was going to be mateless for the rest of my life, but Selene then decided to mate me with a girl who I had pushed away so much. Now what? I asked myself. I was so used to being mateless. I had a mate now and I didn't know how to go about with it. If I accepted her as my mate which I had to, then what? I wasn't even sure of her sanity with the multiple stories she kept bringing up about Kira. “You didn't go to classes today?" I heard and turned to look at Derek who made his way to where I was seated on the boulevard."I did" I replied bluntly. I canceled all my classes for the day when I found out the girl I disliked so much was my mate. I was down, but Huxley my wolf, was too deli
Christine POV.“Then let me die" I spat out in anger before turning to leave. Tears gathered in my eyes as I walked away. He was right. If I continued this way I was going to die. I kept getting weaker and weaker day after day. That strong thirst still lingered in my mouth. My voice had even gotten more gravelly. I knew the solution to my problem, but I didn't want to take it. I had a feeling that if I continued to starve myself and feed on normal food, I might be normal again.The taste of food had never been so awful. Water is way worse. Each time I tried to quench my taste with water, I always ended up vomiting all the content from my stomach. All my brain could think of was blood and I knew I was going to go insane if I as much smelled blood from any corner.My life had never been so miserable before. It felt like my heart had turned dark with the void. I was even avoiding Xavier. I was sure he wanted to help me or find out what was wrong with me, but I didn't let him.It seemed l
Christine's POVMy eyebrow knitted in confusion as I stared at him. I didn't know where the courage I got came from. I stood up from where I was, peering my eyes at him, without showing a single atom of fear. It was as if all my fear left the moment he said I should bring Mirabel to him.“What do you mean by that?"There was a lady there who spoke up. I didn't even realize her the first time I walked into the room.“It's okay" she smiled at me as she walked towards me, but her smile didn't make me trust her a bit. “We are family now, you don't have to act so tensely"“Families don't kidnap its members." I glared at her. “We are not family"She turned to look at the man who appeared to be the leader of the supposed cult. They all looked creepy. The most normal looking one was Jace. He was less distorted.“When last did you feed, you look sick" one of the men asked. He had very dark hair with the palest skin of all of them."I am not one of you. I am not a monster”Jace gave off his sig
We stood side by side and he spoke. “When that man gets closer, you'll attack him" he blurted out and I looked at him like he had lost his mind“Are you joking?" I nudged him from the side, but he didn't look like he was joking.“If you don't do it, I will" “Is this the food you talked about?"“What were you expecting, pizza and ice cream," he asked and I rolled my eye at him.I folded my arms. “I'm not doing” I stood my ground. He couldn't tell me what to do.“Even if you don't do it now, you are likely going to do it later on. Anyway, he's getting away" Jace said and before I could say a word, he was gone.My heart skipped a beat as I turned to look at the man who was filling his car with petrol. I knew he was going to be attacked by Jace at any moment. I wanted to stop Jace, but the problem was, I didn't know where he was. I panicked and thought of entering the car and driving out of there as soon as possible. But I knew Jace had the capability of going after a fast car. He was g
Kira's POVI clutched my book to my chest as I walked like my life was over. I didn't care if people stared at me. I didn't just see the need to hide my misery. Austin had ghosted for a whole day since he found out I was his mate. He probably couldn't come to terms with me being his mate. I couldn't tell if it was his ego or if he was scared of something. Whichever it was, I wished he would tell me to my face once and for all, and I'd just move on with my life.Speaking of the devil, Austin was right in front of me, approaching me, but I didn't act like I saw him. I wanted to walk past him but he held me back. His eyes were soft almost as if he was pleading with me to listen to what he had to say.I wanted to ignore him, but Anabelle was as stubborn as me. “What is it Austin?" I asked with a casual demeanor when in a real sense, I was dying on the inside.“I want to talk to you" he sounded too demanding, I hated it. “You are speaking to me now"“Not here, can we..."I didn't let him
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? Christine you were the one who said you didn’t know this girl” I remembered vividly when I asked her the first time I happened to find
The other half of me My leg was placed on the edge of the window, ready to jump out when I heard a beep from my phone and I stopped. 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
Kira’s POV“I have to tell you something” I said to Christine, but didn’t realize I was yelling. 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
Chapter 100I boiled in rage as I ran to where Xavier was. 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,
Chapter 96I turned to leave but he didn’t let me. He pulled me back to look at him. At that point, my cheeks where soaked in tears. 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
Kira’s pov“I am not coming to your boyfriend’s house” I made it clear to Christine over the phone.“Jace is not my boyfriend” she defended herself.“Oh that’s his name. 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
