Kira's POV“I don't know what you are talking about. Your mother called me and I had to tell her a lie to save you from being scolded. Probably you were at Ken or Austin's house, I don't know, but if I had told your mum I didn't know, wouldn't she be worried?" She asked and I calmed down a bit. What she said made a lot of sense, but I was still skeptical. She hated being around me, why would she try to save me? “"I don't believe you and until I am certain of the reason why you told my mum that, stay the fuck away from me”She scoffed."Ungrateful bitch” She muttered under her breath before walking away, but I heard it.I rolled my eyes and tried to walk away, but a force hit me. I almost fell over, but I was able to push myself against the wall before that happened. I didn't understand what it was and how it happened, but it was too strong. I felt weak instantly, but not weak enough to pass out.I needed to find somewhere to rest because I didn't understand what was going on with my b
Kira's POVWhile we walked nothing was said. I didn't know what to say and he on the other side didn't know what to say. Xavier walked past us. He didn't say anything to Ken, but he kept staring at me, the same way Ken stared at me before. Did they know something I didn't?“Where are you taking me to?" I hastened my footsteps to meet up with Ken. He didn't say anything until we got to an empty class. Then he spoke. “Where did you go recently?" he asked, totally ignoring my question."What business do you have with that?”"You don't understand Mirabel, I have to know” he sounded urgent."I am not telling you" How else would I tell him I followed a note that led me to a vampire, without looking stupid?When he realized I was going to be my usual stubborn self, he did the most surprising thing. He removed my hair from my neck to check the skin under it.“What are you doing?" I snapped at him, moving away from him, but he held me firmly by my hand.“Where did you go, Mirabel?" his eyes s
Ken's POV.In the past 4 years, the last words I thought I would say to Austin were. “I agree" Being difficult wasn't going to do me any good. Plus I thought Marcus wasn't my problem until he did what he did to Mirabel.“Now how the fuck do you plan on bringing him down?"“He has a team, we just need our team. If he is overpowered, he will leave LA" he said and I scoffed.“You make it sound so easy" “Of course, it's not easy. He is manipulative and can maneuver his way through anything""Why is your Alpha not in support of this?“"He feels Marcus fears him too much not to go near his pack members”I chuckled. Of course, his ego always had a way of preventing him from seeing things the right way."And you think the pack member will decide to follow you when their alpha is not in support of the movement? “"They don't know he is not in support”"Your plan is risky because the moment they find out he is not in support. They will crawl to their alpha and leave you on your own. All wolve
Kira's POVKen had told me not to come anywhere close to the sitting room, but my nosey nature couldn't be tamed. Plus when someone is about to die, you can take any form of risk to get answers to your questions.I was desperate at that point. Two days felt like two hours. I was staying at Ken's house. It was only possible because I told Rebecca I would be spending some time at Christine's house.I got down the stairs stealthily when I heard the voice coming from the sitting room. They were all vampires and there was a chance I was going to get caught, but that didn't stop me.The kitchen was close to the sitting room, so I went there so I could get everything they were saying.While I listened to the conversation, I couldn't help but wonder how powerful Marcus was and why they were trying to take him down when he was the only one who could reverse what was happening to me.It didn't make any sense. Who was Frederick too and why did Ken hate him? That question was unnecessary, but I s
Kira's Pov"Mirabel we need to talk" I read the message from my phone and my heart leaped for joy. I was happy Austin finally wanted to see me, but all my ecstasy left when I realized I had to stay with Ken since he was the source of my strength.I couldn't just leave Austin like that. I wanted to see him. I couldn't even contain my happiness at the thought of seeing him.I kept thinking of the possibility of Austin also being able to do the same thing Ken did. Since he was my mate, he couldn't also be a source of strength to me and I wouldn't pass out.With that assurance, I jumped off my bed. I was supposed to be sleeping since it was late, but there was no way I would be able to sleep when I knew I could be with Austin instead.I sneaked out through the window because the last thing I wanted was for Ken to find out I was leaving the house. He was strict and at the same time overprotective. I couldn't wait for everything to be over with so I could put him in his place once and for
Kira's POVThe mumbles around me was what woke me up. The light that peered into my eyes almost gave me a headache. I finally opened my eyes and I was stunned. I was surrounded by both Austin and Ken. People I didn't think will ever be together.“Finally," Ken said. His face held relief. That was strange because of the Attitude he had been giving me.Austin on the other hand watched me closely probably to see if I was strong enough to even sit up.I felt okay like I didn't pass out a while ago. Probably because Ken was there."How long have I been out?” I asked as I stood up."Couple of hours” Austin answered. "Are you okay?”"Funny how you are asking that question. You were the one who caused this” Ken spoke up and I sighed. It was going to be another round of bickering. I didn't understand why they wouldn't just relate with each other for once."If you didn't introduce her to your vampire friends, her life wouldn't be in danger"Ken got closer to Austin and the atmosphere tensed up.
“Marcus show yourself." Ken finally spoke and my heart skipped a beat.Marcus was there with us.I was about to heave closer to Ken because of how scared I was, but before I could get to where he was, someone yanked my hair forcefully and pulled me closer. It happened faster than I could even breathe.“Let me go" He had his arm around my neck firmly from behind. I still remembered his scent. How could I forget the scent of the man who almost made me piss my pants as a result of his intense gaze?“Over here Ken," he said even though ken was already looking at us. Anger was visible in his eyes. I had never seen him as angry as that before.His grip around my neck was so tight but wasn't killing me. I wasn't fooled. The strength of a Vampire could be deceiving. I knew he could reap my head off its body if he wanted to.“Don't come any closer Ken" Marcus tightened his grip around my neck and I had to scream. “Don't... Do... Don't come. He's going to kill me" I screamed at the top of my v
Kira's POV“How was your stay at Christine's house," my mum asked and I wished I didn't have to answer her questions.“It was fine mum" I mumbled under my eyes. I couldn't even hide the tiredness in my voice. I just pray she couldn't hear it because that would lead to more questioning.I dragged my feet to my room. The first thing I did was lay my tired back on my bed. I breathed out sharply because it seemed like I had been holding my breath for a long time.I took my phone that was in my pocket. I didn't know if I should call him or not. I was talking about Austin. I held the phone in my hand but dropped it on the bed again. Even if I called him, what was I going to tell him? He was probably broken or thinks I wanted to be with Ken since I was in his house and all.While I lay on the bed, there was a knock on the door and I groaned in frustration. I didn't want to stand up. I just wanted to lay on the bed and wallow in my misery.“Mum I'm not in the mood" I yelled thinking it was my
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
