Lessia's POV I could sense in Kian a deep frustration that always found a way to sip through his eyes and ride on the rhythm of his heartbeat when I laid on his chest. He was troubled. I knew so because his smile didn't stretch as wide as it used to. His blue eyes didn't glitter with the color of the sea as it used to as well. And I missed it. I missed how beautiful and regal he always seemed when he stared down into my eyes.He came back that day, looking extremely down and distraught. I asked him what was wrong and the only thing he told me was that he had a little quarrel with some other Alphas.He laid down on the bed, tired of the day, his shoulders brought low as he sunk into the bed's embrace.I needed to cheer him up. I thought for long how I could do so. And then I figured that he might actually be really hungry. I could finally cook for him that dish I had been planning to for long, since the last time I did so, I wasn't able to relish the look on his face eating it due to

Lessia's POV It took a long time for me to unclench my hands from the iron bars that separated the outside space from me in the prison. It took far longer time for me to come to terms with the fact that I had just been thrown in jail by nobody but Kian, for doing something I really had no hand in.How could he have done that? I said in my mind. How could he really believe I would do something like that?When he took me to his mum’s grave, I was excited because it meant that he trusted me with something really important to him.For once in my life I had felt that I mattered and someone genuinely cared for me, but it didn’t take long for the nightmare to overshadow the dream.I remembered the look on his eyes when he badged into my room, he was disappointed as well as furious. It felt like he had trusted the wrong person and he regretted it. I was broken, I knew at that moment that everything I had envisioned would happen between the both of us, was all just a fairytale.I could feel

Kian's POV While I laid down on the bed, I could only feel discomfort. There was no spot I would toss my head to that would give me the comfort needed to sleep.The sound of the night was equally as discomforting. In my head I couldn't help replay in ever detail what had happened in the previous day. I knew I had messed up. I could only stay in bed at the time to cringe at myself.But there was also the thought of her being responsible for what happened. It can’t be a coincidence that after I showed her the vase, it got broken. Was the nursing some kind of resentment towards me?Every time I closed my eyes I couldn't help seeing her face stare back at me, from the pitch darkness, and then, remembering the guards taking her away and how I avoided like a plague her eyes. I could have easily looked into her eyes yesterday and tell the guards to stop. That maybe I was making a big mistake. Maybe we had to make a more thorough investigation. But I didn't.I was the leader of my pack, if I

Kian's POV It felt very odd to me that I hadn't checked the security footage to find out whom the killer was.It just occurred to me that ever since I installed it, I hadn’t really checked it for anything. My security team didn’t have access to it and only the trusted ones were aware of it.For a a matter this important to me, the idea that it skipped my mind was so ludicrous and far fetched that I found myself bothered by it.The anger I felt when I saw the vase broken had overridden my logical senses. I had made very hasty decisions. My mind flashed back to Lessia. I imagined what she was doing. How exactly she was coping, being alone in that darkness.That place wasn’t meant for a Luna. It was meant for thieves and criminals such as Maddox. Lessia had no business there, but I had our her there because I was angry.I heaved a sigh, collapsing on the desk I was leaning on, all my weight dispersing with the stress that weighed on my shoulders. On the desk was a computer. Somehow it

Lessia's POV "Water!" I breathed, as the warm drops of the life supporting liquid fell on my body from the shower. You wouldn't know what you have until you lose it. And right at that moment, the feeling of water once again touching my face and body, was a luxury I couldn't afford in the prison.I could feel and smell the damned odor of the cell I was in, washing off already. My eyes were still not so used to the light as I had stayed in that place without even the tiny bit of luminescence.The memories of the prison still stood out in my head. The darkness, the fear...and the disappointment. it wasn't the first time I had been locked up. But it was the first time I was being locked up by someone I truly desired and loved.And those nightmares made it a lot worse, especially the one I had imagined Maddox coming to take me back to his pack, I couldn’t get it out of my head no matter how hard I tried.I wished Kian knew the extent of damage his actions had caused me, locking me up for

Lessia's POVMy head was getting dizzy from staring all day at the four corners of my room, and then at the ceiling.Occasionally I would stare outside the window to get some fresh air that the room couldn't provide, then I'd get bored and tired again, and then go lay on the bed once more to stare at the window.All this, I was willing to go through so I wouldn't have to see Kian. To me it was far more worth while than having to walk on egg shells just because he was around. At first I had laid down on the bed, then started crafting for myself, very amazing situations with my imagination.I had done that before I finally got the gist that I was really just talking to myself and there was no sadder thing than that.For a change, as if I were being pulled towards the door to perhaps, step outside, I made a break for the door, and stood there, looking at it, contemplating if I should really just step outside and ignore Kian's existence as much as I could. But I doubted that I could re

Kian's POV: My ears seemed to be hearing the non existent as I took more steps into the Pack house. Either that or I had missed Lessia's voice so much that I was beginning to hear it bounce across the walls of the building. Maybe that was it, I was really just hallucinating. I didn't want to believe that was the truth so I sought out to quench my curiosity.She sounded happy, her laughter did way more than bring memories of her before the night I threw her in prison. It also brought questions to my mind. Her words were unintelligible, I couldn't make out any word she spoke."Who is she talking to?" I breathed to myself nervously. Shaking a bit with jealousy as I took every step forward, the sound of my shoes' sole clashing with the floor, resounding across the hall.The voices kept getting louder as I walked, and so was my heart beat, implying that I was indeed getting closer to the source. My curiosity raged on within me, threatening to tear my mind apart. Soon I reached my destinat

Lessia's POV His gazes were hard to hold. I kept staring away, stealing glances of the hall outside behind us. My mood was a conundrum of fear, shock, and a feeling of tension that rippled from right between my hips to my heart.My breasts were pressed on his chest, as he continued to pull me towards him. His fingers were cold on my skin, sending through me a shiver that shook me to the depths of my foundation.We were this close, yet our minds were miles apart, yet our worlds were different, even though they may have seemed to collide.I suddenly forgot about all the anger I felt. I wanted him, I craved for him, my wolf leaped for joy at his touch. His breath on my skin set me on fire. I was like a prey waiting for be devoured by her predator.I didn’t dare move, even if I wanted to, my legs were stuck, as every other part of my body all ready stood still, waiting for Kian to act.My heart was beating fast and I knew he was aware of it as his blue eyes penetrated deep within me.

Lessia's POVFive Years Later… “Mummy, we’re waiting, hurry up!” I heard Raphael call out to me.“I’ll be down in a minute.” I yelled back, as I tried to apply the finishing touches to my make up.It was the boys birthday, Raphael had been overly excited about it. He asked for so many things for his birthday, he was looking forward to seeing his wishes being granted.Leo on the other hand, didn’t say much about what he wanted his birthday, well asides from reminding us that he hated chocolate cakes and wouldn’t attend the party if he sees any present. So I made a mental note to not add chocolates to the list of desserts.Kian and I planned the whole celebration by ourselves. After Williams betrayal, five years ago, we still found it difficult to trust people. We made good friendships with some of the parents of our children friends, but it was centered on the kids. We still kept our healthy boundaries.After I gave birth to the twins, Kian became even more overprotective. He didn’t

Lessia's POV: The room was growing darker, as it seemed that light was sipping away in every second as I pushed. I could feel every bit of energy I had in me slipping away.I struggled to steady by breaths, but I kept panting, even though the nurses assured me everything would be fine, I was still afraid for my child and myself.“Arghhh!” I screamed loudly as I felt another sharp pain.“Luna, just hold on tight, you’d be fine, you know your babies are two, so this will take a while, I need you to be strong for them.” The doctor said encouraging me, but her words could only do so little for me.“Arghhhh!” I screamed again. “I don’t think I can do this, I can’t anymore, please make it stop.” I yelled once more as the tears began to stream down my eyes.I had never felt this kind of pain before, it was so unbearable, like there was a machine inside of me constantly squeezing my insides. I want it to stop so bad.“Luna, I’m going to change your position, okay? The nurse will hold you an

Lessia's POV As I walked out of the building, the feeling of fulfillment and satisfaction engulfed my being. I could smell the disdainful surprise on that saucy receptionist as I walked past him. I could tell he did not expect to see me beautifully dressed in the level of confidence I waxed in as I left. It was so obvious he expected to see a broken and downcast woman different from the one that had walked in just moments earlier. That only heightened my pride and the self fulfillment I was already acquainted with.I knew they were all shocked to see me representing kian, because according to their Logic, women shouldn’t be involved in politics. However, I had learnt so much from Kian in so little time.The fact that he didn’t turn me down whenever I asked him about politics made me happy and important. When I was still with Maddox, he often treated me like it was a crime to have knowledge of politics. Whenever he was handling a matter and I wanted to be involved, he would tell me h

Lessia's POV: There I was at the so called Alpha Cabinet once more. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't keep the thoughts of what they tried to do to me and Kian before, out of my head. The walls of the building steadily resounded the voices, words and fingers of suspicion and accusations they pointed at us that day.I could still remember their faces in the blurry edge of my mind. I could still remember everything.But I was prepared that whatever I was going to be thrown at, I would be sure to defend myself in anyway and give it back to them in full force."Hello, I have an appointment with the Cabinet, I am to meet them in the chamber room" I said to the receptionist that mounted the entrance.There had been a change in location due to an incident that happened recently, so I wanted to be sure I was in the right place.Honestly, I preferred the new location, as it was closer to Kian’s pack. That way I felt safer, even though no where was 100% safe.I noticed the receptionist w

Lessia’s Pov Seeing Kian’s unconscious body lying on the floor filled me with so much adrenaline that I didn’t know when I stood up and started screaming for help.Kian’s body was lying besides Williams body, which gave me a nostalgic feeling once more, about how hospitals reek of the smell of blood and death.“Help, somebody please help us!” I screamed again, my voice echoing in the room. Soon, some nurses came running into the room. “Please the Alpha has been shot, I need you to help him immediately,” I yelled.They came back with a stretcher to take Kian, while I followed behind, until we got to a room where he was being attended to.“Luna, you have to wait here, while we attend to him.” A nurse said. I wanted to insist on going into the room with him, but that would only delay his treatment. So I sat patiently and let them do their jobs.While I was waiting for Kian, some of the pack soldiers arrived. The hospital must have alerted them, I thought.The leader approached me with

Kian’s Pov The confrontation with Williams continued. I couldn’t believe he had been the one responsible for all our misfortunes. I was shocked, to say the least, that all these while I had been so gullible to trust the enemy.It all made sense now, why he never trusted Lessia, how easy it was for Maddox to get into my pack to kidnap Lessia. He was the one who poisoned her and told Sonia about my allergies, so she could kill me as well. If they had succeeded, Lessia would have been helpless, I’m sure he would have sent her back to Maddox, to continue to be his sex slave.“You are beyond delusional, Williams, why would you think I would never fall in love and have my own family? Why would you think I would never find my own mate?”He looked at me in a standoffish manner, and soon burst into a fit of laughter.“Can you hear yourself, Kian? Before Lessia, how many people looked your way, huh? How many women actually there themselves at you? No one, Kian. No one. And you know why?” He c

Kian's POV “You can’t possibly me sure that Williams is the one responsible for your misfortunes.” Jason suggested, but I knew he was only playing kind games.“Tell me, you bastard. Did you make this all up just to distract me from the truth? Did you?” I questioned, baring my fangs into his skin, as blood slowly oozed out.“Why would I make this up, Kian? Of what benefit would it be to me? Besides I didn’t tell you it was Williams, you figured that yourself. Which is a huge breakthrough for you, as you’ve failed to do in the past years.”Jason’s words pricked me. All these while, I had been living with the enemy, eating and drinking with the enemy, telling all of my problems to the enemy.How naive could I be? How ignorant could I be? I chided myself. No wonder Maddox thought me to be a fool, he had been communicating with my Beta all along, right under my nose. That was why he was able to reach Lessia and even Kidnap her.Williams and Lessia. These were the only words that appeared

Kian's POV: Where I intended to begin my investigations was none other than Maddox's Pack house, which was now mine by virtue of conquering and Annexation. I knew that if there ever were a secret agent amongst us, that person would be in affiliations with Maddox.I had some friends in the packs close to his, so I sought for their help. Although, Maddox was a man of many secrets, I was hopeful we would find out something, he surely didn’t take them to his grave.I began to doubt Maddox’s death. We were informed he was dead, but no one ever saw his body, no one was invited to his funeral. Was he even buried? I had no idea. My friends didn’t as well.However, if he were alive, he wouldn’t be working alone. Even if he succeeded in infiltrating my pack, which I knew there was no way that would be the case. Someone had to have been feeding Maddox information, and there was no way it could have been Lessia. That was a main reason I couldn't take William's words as law. He was right for me

Kian's POV: I couldn't count the number of times Williams had told me not to worry on that day.How could one be so relaxed after finding out their mate was poisoned and almost lost their children in the process? Only a man like Williams would suggest that to you.Sometimes I wondered if this man felt things that normal people did. Because there was no way someone who had feelings would say that to me.“Are you saying this because you still don’t like Lessia?” I questioned him as he voiced my gaze.“I have nothing against the Luna, Kian. She’s your mate and the mother of the future heirs to the pack. What could I possibly have against her?”There was sincerity in his words. He had no reason to still dislike Lessia, maybe I was the one reading meaning I shouldn’t to his advice. I had always know Williams to be like that, so there was no need expecting him to be different when it came to Lessia.“You don’t understand, Williams. Someone is out to kill Lessia. First, she was being follo
