Kiara's POV

Time seemed to slow to a halt as I took in Darius' last words. They echoed loudly in my ears, and no matter how hard I tried to shake them away, or push them to the back of my mind, they just didn't budge.

“We’re not alone.” His voice sent tendrils of fear racing down my spine. “Someone or something, is out here with us.”

I didn't want to believe it. It didn't make any sense. We'd driven out alone to this forest, so why and how we were no longer the only ones here?

My mind whirled with a million thoughts all at once. What if what we just saw wasn't blood, and even if it was, it didn't belong to the guard that had come with us? What if the guard wasn't dead as we presumed, and was probably hiding? What if he was just playing a sick prank and had picked the worst moment?

A chuckled bubbled at the base of my throat, but I didn't dare let it out. My laughter was more on the pathetic side than anything else, but it still didn't change the fact that we were in trouble.

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 137

    Kiara's POV I honestly thought my troubles were over, or more importantly, I was slowly becoming the moon goddess least favorite pawn to play with. One would think that with the number of things that had happened to me in the span of three days, that the goddess had her her fill and had now decided to move to someone else. Those were my exacts thoughts too, but I was slowly coming to learn that she was barely done with me, and I was in for a longer and more gruesome ride than I least expected. Shit. How I'd managed to fall asleep and what not, I had no idea. It also didn't help that nightmared plagued my dreams and I woke up sweating to each and every one of them. I'd barely managed to go back to bed, before something caught my attention again. For the umpteenth time tonight, a small sound reached my eyes and I jerked awake immediately. Thanks to my heart thumping wildly in my chest, it made it a tad bit harder to realize where the noise had originally come from. After what s

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 136

    Kiara's POV I'd heard cases where people said they forgot how to act when certain things happened to them, and even though it wasn't a thing of pride, there was a bit of swell feeling that came with the fact that I hadn't experienced that before, and perhaps, if someone had walked up to me and told me that I was soon going to be in that position, then best believe I wouldn't have taken thrm seriously. Until now, that is. My eyes glanced back to the note in my hand, and I wasn't sure I was exaggerating when I said I regretted it. A small, and probably delusional part of me had thought that I could trick myself into thinking that I'd imagined the whole thing, but there was no way that was happening now, not when the proof was still sitting pretty on my palms. The paper burned my skin, but I didn't dare drop it. It's words echoed deep in my ears, and I hated that they seemed to play on loop, over and over again. Where the hell could this have come from? How did it get here? Who th

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 135

    Kiara's POV I wasn't one to be afraid all the time, especially when there wasn't so much as an idea of a threat hanging around. I'd heard the term that I was fearless quite a couple of times, and honestly, while I thought the expression was one of the best qualities I could ever possess, I wasn't sure I still shared that sentiment, especially in this moment. The ribbon was gone, and it was all because of me. I'd burned it a couple of hours ago, but it still felt like I hadn't done enough. I hated to admit it, but Kael’s visit rattled me more than I would like. I wasn't even sure which was all the more unnerving, the fact that he'd been able to instill such an amount of fear in me without even looking at my face for once, or the fact that his words hit harder than I thought they would. His words had coiled around me the moment he left, and even up until this moment,I could still hear the threat in his voice lingering and echoing in the back of my head. I'd wrapped the ribbon in a

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 134

    Kiara's POV The silence after Darius left was deafening, and all ot did was make my skin crawl. This wasn't the first time things in my room were quiet, and there wasn't so much as a sound from me for hours,but this one felt different and in a bad way. His scent still clung to the sheets, and even his warmth lingeredin the pillows. I'd kicked against it when he decided we stay in the sheets for a little while, after he'd dismissed one of the council members, but now that he had taken every bit of homey feeling he once shared with me, I couldn't help but miss him. The protective shell he’d wrapped around ne was gone, and without him, the walls felt thinner, and the cold crept into my bones, all whilst threatening to eat me up from the inside. I sat on the edge of the bed, an hour or so after he'd left, my spine taut, and eyes locked on the door like it might burst open at any second. You couldn't blame me. The only reason I was rooted to this spot, was all thanks to Darius' parting

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 133

    Darius' POV The door slammed behind me, Kiara’s voice still echoing like a brand against my skin. I hadn't stopped moving until I reached the far end of the west wing, where my office stood strong. If there was anything I was grateful for, it was the stone corridors that swallowed sound and the shadows that did their duty when it came to concealing things that were meant to be hidden..The lack of a single sound in my office was all of took to pull me out of my thoughts. I half expected a couple of council members to be in here by now, but I guess their sharp mouths only extended, of couldn't live past their council chambers. I ran a hand through my hair, and my mind must have taken that as some kind of sign to repay everything that had led to this moment. I was still reeling from the adrenaline of giving thrr council members and ultimatum, but the last thing I expected, was to bump into Kiara,packing and trying g to leave again. She must not have trusted the fact that I really

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 132

    Kiara’s POV I stared at the space in front of me, and despite how focused I was, nothing, absolutely nothing seemed to be changing. The back of my eyes stung, and I was ashamed at the fact that it took me longer to realize why that was happening. I was tearing up, and the worst part? I had no idea why. I blinked back a couple of times, while forcing myself to push back the tears. They didn't cooperate immediately, and instead of letting them fall, I decided to distract myself. My eyes glanced at the walls that looked too much like they were closing in on me, and I swallowed. The clock that was hung high up on the wall ticked back and forth, and even though it bathed the room in a kind of eerie ambience, all I could think of was the limited time I had left here. The more I stared at the place, the more I realized that I didn't really have anything that belonged to me in here. There were no personal effects whatsoever, and I had no idea how that made me feel. A pang of guilt sprea
