Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 16
REID:“I thought you both had this entirely figured out. So why do we have this here?” I question both men who had just joined me in the location of the first mystery.I am not looking at their faces to tell what expression they are revealing but I am sure they were surprised to see what I am seeing here. The slimy substance which we believed to be evidence in the second quarters.My eyes are fixated on it as I try to sense life in it. But nothing seems to be pulsating, making it look like snot in some way. Whatever this is, I have no idea. And might not if the whole situation keeps going this way with no substantial evidence.“We truly did comb the whole apartment. And, trust me, nothing of such was there. We would have been the first to notify you if the case had been that way,” from the voice, I can tell it was Hunter who just responded to my query.“Or probably my father first,” I say.“What?”And so I turn around to face them but was particularly looking at Hunter. “I wasn’t talk
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 17
KIRA:I’m in the middle of nowhere. Let’s just say I have landed myself in a place I have no idea about. All I know is that I still have my clothes gripped under my pit after running for so long, as far as my legs could carry me.It wasn’t until I became weary did I choose to stop. Am I distressed? Of course, I am. I just got chased down by the unknown and the pressure from knowing I am in a position where I cannot figure out my location was another thing to couple to it. Today turned out to be a bad day.I’m not sure what to do now. Should I make a run for it once more? Perhaps I should start to head back to where I came from. I could as well try to figure out the path I had gone through.“This isn’t looking good, Alexia. What do we do now?” I ask the entity in my head, solely expecting her to come up with an idea. At least it was her who alerted me when danger was lurking around me. So she should have an idea what to do to get us out of here. “What was even the thing that was chasin
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 18
KIRA:I think it’s about time I find a way to make a run for it. It might not be a successful attempt in the end but it would be worth trying. Because even if I had a glimpse of hope that I would be allowed to walk away free, that hope has been dashed completely now.My last encounter with the beta was nothing home to write about. I’m sure he still has my face marked in his mind. And as I sight him with the massive tattoo inks on his body which is more revealed due to the armless leather jacket he has on, I knew things were about to go through another route.“You!” the beta growls at me upon realization when he gets beside the Alpha. And unconsciously, I take another step backward out of fear.“Hold it right there, Hunter,” Alpha Reid says and turns his head to stare at the beta who looks like he is going to tear me apart if he gets the chance to. “What do you think you’re doing?”The snarls being produced by the beta are enough to make me terrified. I should have known that another d
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 19
KIRA:My eyes are fixated on the partially damaged ceiling as I lay on my bed. I’m drained and at the same time still trying to make sense out of today’s events. How everything started from a simple outing into the woods to unintentionally finding myself in another pack territory.I thought today would be my end. Or maybe something lesser than that. But I was sure vindicated by the leader whom I expected to get me behind bars. Am I not a lucky one? Or is there something else to it? Like the Alpha trying not to be at war with our pack?But one thing I know is that I need to learn how to control my mouth. I freely ran it when I shouldn’t, which even worsened the situation around there for me.‘Kira?’Wait, what? Is Alexia trying to contact me now that I didn’t need her help anymore?‘Kira? I’m sure you can hear me,’“You have been aired!” I respond to her, raising my hands as I twiddle my thumbs against each other.‘Are you mad at me?’“Pfft, why will I be mad at you? No, I'm not mad. H
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 20
REID:Abrupt silence takes over the study immediately after I denied the allegation thrown at me. Fortunately for me, I was perfect at being aloof whenever I wanted to be so it was enough to mask my emotions.“She isn’t?” A while later, Hunter questions me while still staring at me suspiciously.I take my time before responding, “Of course not,”“Then what was all that about?”My brows are raised questioningly. “What do you mean?” I ask.“Why did you have to be so easygoing with her? Everything she did today was totally wrong and yet you let her go just like that. Don’t you think that makes you a little suspicious?”“I was only fulfilling a duty—”“A duty?” Hunter cuts me off. “What duty would make you act so soft toward a girl that deserves to be punished?”“Would you rather I put her behind bars? Is that what you want?”“Maybe even more than that,” he says, a little eerie vibe oozing out from him. “That’s why you’re the Alpha. Decisions like that are what you’re supposed to take.”I
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 21
KIRA:“What makes you think I would want to go through that door with you?” I start to eye him suspiciously as I ask him that. Although my insides are telling me to go with him, I cannot help but think that he has an ulterior motive. And the thought of that was scaring me.He leans against the door. “Isn’t that why you came here in the first place?”“Of course not,” I deny. “I already told you that I came here to clear my head. That’s what I came here to do,”I watch him tug at his brown hair with his left hand, and almost at the same time, the wind blows in our direction. Perfect timing to look cool, I guess.“So,” he starts to say, “of all the places to clear your head, it just had to be the back way.”“It was a simple coincidence, trust me,”“Then why is your palm red?”I look down at my hand immediately to notice how red my palm was. Obviously, it was from trying to handle the locks then.“Well,” I try to maintain composure as I speak, “I actually burnt myself unintentionally whil
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 22
REID:I completely back away from the door, keeping my guard up as I fix my focus on it. Why can’t today just be an absolutely normal day for me?‘Are we safe? Am I safe?’ I ask Bryan who hasn’t said a word since he instructed me from moving further to the entrance.‘I don’t know,’ is his panicky response which is starting to affect me as well. ‘What I do know is that we are surrounded by something that is out of the ordinary which is why you need to be extra careful right at this moment,’A knock on the door again. And then another. And then another. This sure doesn’t look good.The scent has completely been masked now. No way to figure out if it is someone or just a thing out there.The instance a knock comes through again, I ask Bryan using my voice, “Don’t you think we need to make a run from this?”‘And risk your safety?’“So you mean I should stay in here all day while some maniac out there continues to taunt me? Is that what you want me to do?”Bryan scoffs. ‘Put down your ego,
Alpha Reid and Me Chapter 23
KIRA:“Glad I found you here, Kira,”As I was seated on the ground, I have to lift my head from my arms which were resting solely on my knees to see Bradley standing in front of me. Strange that I didn’t feel his presence when he arrived.“It’s you,” I say in a sort of whisper before putting my head back on my arms, burying my face in between my legs in the process.Instantly I feel Bradley join me on the ground where I’m seated. Even though I wish to be left alone, I didn’t feel uncomfortable that he was with me now. Perhaps I needed company without knowing.“Was surprised when your mother told me you were behind the house. Never thought I would actually meet you here,” Bradley lets that out in one go. “Are you okay?” I hear him ask after he sighs.“Yeah, I guess,” my voice probably comes out muffled due to the little or no space left in between my legs.Then silence ensues. Bradley doesn’t say anything to me for quite a long time and neither do I bother to strike up a conversation b
