KYRA'S POVI jerked awake, panting heavily like I was going to pass out any time soon. I was right. I had been dreaming all these while but one thing I had come to learn is to take all dreams of mine as as Serious as I take other things. I stared around and on the chair just by the bed sat Ace. He was so engrossed in his work. Like though he suspected something was wrong, he turned his eyes to me and smiled, smile that vanishd as quickly as it appeared. "What's the problem? Why do you look so troubled?" He asked with a frown laced to his brows. He looked quite serious and all worked up. I was mute for a few seconds as I gazed at him, a bit confused. I tried to understand exactly what he could do to make me so mad with him but I couldn't think of anything. "Kyra! Are you alright? Come on, speak to me!" He rose from where he was seating and dashed to where at once as quickly as he was. He wrapped his hands round me like I was some two year old child. I loved it though because it g
RAHL'S POVWhat's the problem? Why are you all these silent? Can you speak at once and make me understand what's going on?" I yelled at them when I couldn't take it any more. I was to understand why they were all trying to make me go crazy. I heaved a sigh as I waited for a response from them. "Our allies refused to grant your request. We tried to convince them but they still didn't yield," they explained and immediately, my heart fell. I didn't know what else to do to make them help me. To think these were people who I have helped times over number and now, they weren't Willing to yield to my wish. Thinking of it alone Infuriated me but I managed to calm myself. "That's fine, it's obvious they are only my allies because of what I have to offer them and not because it's suppose to be mutual." "What do you suggest we do right now sir? We need to do something as soon as possible. I have a strong urge that daughter of a bitch is trying to attack us and you know Very well what that
ACE'S POVI couldn't blame her so much as I would have wanted to as I totally understood the plight she was In. If I were in her shoes as well, I'd have done worse and that was the bitter truth. The pack had once been taken her from and her family, making her a slave for almost a quarter of her life. Being a slave is quite difficult and isn't something someone would wish to return to. She wanted but one thing and that was to have her pack safe and sound and I was going to make sure that happens no matter what it takes. "Really?" A thought swished through my head, leaving me puzzled. What manner of problem is this that's trying to raised its head at this moment. "Yes, I'd do everything for her even if it means dying. I'll make sure that this pack doesn't get captured again. That's a promise from me to the universe," I confessed aloud. I knew it wasn't going to be so easy but I was going to do it still. The love I had for Kyra was second to none. I lowered my gaze to her and righ
ACE'S POVFew minutes later, my eyes popped open and the reality of what I did dawned on me. I felt anger within me and couldn't control it."What have you done to me?" I yelled at her as she put on her clothes with a sinister grin slowly forming round her lips. I wanted to land a punch across the face but I esfb one to lay my hands on a woman. "What do you mean by what I have done to you? You agreed to do it and that's it. Why are you trying to blame me for your actions?" She slammed back at me in a loud and firm voice that took me aback. if one had told me that she could be this outspoken, I wouldn't have believed them. To think she was acting all frightened and inexperienced about thirty minutes back. I felt Infuriated at the way she spoke. "Are you nuts? Do you want to claim you don't know exactly what you did to me? You hypnotized me and made me do your wish and you're here trying to force innocent. Do you even realize who it is you're speaking to?""To hell with you and who
CHAPTER 91RAHL'S POVI tried to calm down as I stood still to hear what it was my beta had to say but the more I waited, the more my patience waned out. I wanted to yell at him but he had such a calm face that I felt I was going to offend him if I yelled at him when he literally did nothing. "Are you going to delay me further or you'll speak?" I snapped at him as I clenched my hands into a fist. My blood boiled so much that I felt I was going to explode anytime soon. "And that's exactly what I'm about to speak to you on! You need to be extremely patient especially in times like this. We cannot afford to make rash decisions because they'll eventually bounce back on us," he said to me in the same cool voice that I had always known him to have. At this point, I was extremely confused as to what to do and I couldn't even hide it even though I wanted to. I ran my hands through my hair as I glanced right at him. "I think you need to retract your words in regards to recruiting the men
KYRA'S POVOne thing was sure and that was the strong nagging feeling that clouded my thoughts. I knew all wasn't well with Ace and here he was, complicating matters for me. I Wanted to know to know what the problem was but he wouldn't speak and thinking of it alone almost made me go mad. "Is he telling the truth or is he hiding anything from me?" This question clouded my mind and troubled my heart more than I had thought it would. He glared at me for a few seconds before a smile etched itself on his face. I was familiar with that smile and knew better than trust it. He only gave that smile when he needs me to stop talking about something. I smiled back at him and rose from the bed to get to my tasks. I had to meet a lot of people and within a limited time. Thinking of it alone made me develop a headache. My hand rested on the nape of my neck, slowly massaging it to create relief. After a few touches, I felt much better than I was. I remained by the door all the while I did this ju
KYRA'S POV I moved my gaze around until it rested on Ace who stood still, obviously dumbfounded by her utterances. For the first few seconds, I found it difficult to believe my ears and I waited for him to speak in his defense but he remained silent all through, giving me the notion that he was guilty of the allegation thrown at him. I felt my heart break into a thousand pieces. The trust I had in him was broken within the twinkle of an eye."Why did you do it? No, tell me! Why did you cheat on me and to think you cheated on me with her. Don't I satisfy you enough?" I asked, my voice laced with pain. It choked and threatened to kill me. I began to pant, unable to catch my breath. He moved close to me in a bid to help me out but I pushed him off. I couldn't stand the sight of him for even a second. "I'm sorry Kyra! I'm really sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. I wasn't in my right sense when I made out with her and I've been wanting to tell you all morning since I woke up. I'm sorr
RAHL'S POVI stared around the pack and then uttered some incoherent words as I went towards the chariot that was waiting for me. I was trying to be hopeful even though I wasn't so sure if all was going to go well. "Have you got everything ready? I do not want any issues!" I asked the moment I got on the chariot. I had a fierce grimace, one that showed the thick muscle embedded in my face. "Yes sir, we've got everything intact sir. You've got nothing to worry about," he assured me with a wide grin but I knew better than to believe his cocky tale. I was going to search by myself. I went to the back of the chariot, opened the Cart and inspected every single box that were in it. When I was assured that all was really intact, I climbed back and off we went in the direction of the north where we had most of our allies. The longer we journeyed, the more I was filled with uneasiness. "Rahl! You've got to calm yourself down. Nothing is going to happen except you allow it to happen," my w
