RAELYNN "Is everything alright?" I looked up at the sound of Judy's voice. She was sitting up on the bed, her messy blonde hair framing her face. "Maurice just called me. Apparently, my dad is in a critical condition," I told her and she frowned at me."Something smells fishy about this," she stated."You think so?" She nodded."I have a feeling it's a trap of sorts," she stated and I nodded in agreement. Either way, I needed to find out what was really going on."You still have to be careful. Who knows what they're planning?" Judy said, her tone clipped. She seemed truly annoyed. I couldn't help but smile. "It's not like they can plot something grand in a place like the medical centre," I said and she sighed. "Fine," she mumbled.After getting dressed, I promptly left for the medical centre and made inquiries to locate my father. Sure enough, he'd been admitted in one of the wards. When I walked in, I found Maurice sitting by the bedside with a solemn look on her face. M

RAELYNN Theo slowly released his grip on Rai's shirt and hurried over to my side, his brows furrowed in concern. "I'm alright," I said, slowly rising to my feet. Rai stared at me, his burning gaze locked with mine. I lowered my stare to his elongated claws, tension gripping me as I acknowledged how deadly they looked. I'd never seen him so riled up. "Put away your claws, will you?" I said through gritted teeth. Without a word, he turned away from us and started to make his way down the hallway. Then he halted. He kept his gaze fixed on the floor in front of him. "I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking straight," he said, clenching his fists. Blood dripped from his palm as his claws dug into his flesh. Swallowing hard, I watched him make his way towards the staircase, disappearing past the door. "He's a mess," Theo commented. My stomach tightened as unease washed over me. I hated to admit it but Theo was right. Rai was a wreck. Did it make me feel bad for him? Only a little. "What'

RAI As soon as Izzy left my room, I suddenly felt drained and regret sank into me. I knew she truly cared about me, but I couldn't bring myself to accept it because I knew. I knew I didn't deserve to be happy or cared for. I was better off embracing my own karma. I didn't want to get my hopes up. Returning to my bed, I sat down, burying my face in my hands. My phone buzzed and I picked it up from the nightstand. Raelynn had just sent me a message. It read:'Listen to whatever Izzy has to tell you. She cares about you. Also, make sure you set up an appointment with a healer. You're not in good shape. Don't ignore it or it'll only get a lot worse'I stared at the screen of my phone in disbelief. "What's it to her anyway?" I muttered. Glancing outside the window, I took a deep breath. Perhaps, Raelynn was right. Maybe there was something wrong with me. Closing my eyes, I tried to get myself to relax. An image of Raelynn's face appeared in my mind's eye and I sighed. Was it re

RAI Rosy cheeks and bright chestnut eyes. I doubted that I would forget how she looked tonight. When I leaned in with the intention to kiss her, Kairos growled in my head in anticipation. He had pushed his way to the surface and was eager to mark her. But I knew better. She wasn't my mate. Not anymore. The loud honking from the car parked behind us snapped me out of the haze that had kept me irrational. So I slowly pulled away and cleared my throat. Without a word, I turned on the ignition and pulled out of the parking lot. Raelynn remained silent as I continued to drive. She kept her face turned away from me as she gazed outside the window. Her shoulders were slumped and her overall body language indicated how exhausted she was. "Raelynn --" I start to say and she interrupted me without looking at me."It didn't happen. Nothing happened tonight. Let's keep it that way," she said in a monotonous voice. Clenching my jaw, I sharply exhaled through my nostrils. The bitter burn in

RAELYNN I stared at the screen of my phone with a heavy pressure lingering on my chest. I'd told Austin that I didn't care about whatever happens to Rai. But there I was, wondering if I'd done the right thing. My phone suddenly rang out and I picked up the call the moment I saw the caller ID."Hey, Theo," I said."The twins are missing," he said and I froze. "W-what?" I breathed, stuck with terror. "We're still searching for them but it appears that they have been abducted. We found an ominous note in their rooms," Theo said, his voice trembling. "No. Not my babies. Please find them. I can't lose them--"The sound of an ear piercing gunshot rang through the air and I instinctively went down on my knees as the glass window shattered, eliciting a scream from me. Trembling, I lowered my head as another gunshot echoed in the room, a bullet embedding itself in the wall of the hotel room. The whole place went silent but I remained hunched over on the floor, my heart threatenin
