Kiara's POV

The dream didn't feel like a dream anymore. It felt strictly like a nightmare, one I wanted to wake up from so badly, and I would have, if I hadn't stumbled upon what I did first.

It felt real, so real a part of me started convulsing just by thinking about it. It was so real I could taste the blood in the air and smell the ashes littering around.

The dream started off in the throne room,only it wasn't ours anymore. I wasn't sure I'd ever been to the throne room, but I'd walked past and snuck a peek at it a good number of times to know what it looked like. As opposed to the marbled floors and walls that ran through the real throne room, the entire room glowed with black. It pulsed like it has shadows of its own and I didn't miss the shadows that pooled around the walls, le oil spilling around. All of that and more were frightening, but nothing could have prepared me for the sight that stood at the center of it all.

On the throne that was once a vibrant shade of gold

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 62

    Kiara's POV I didn't know how long I sat staring at the melted remains of the ward Cain had etched on the floor. According to him, he'd placed them in front of my door in case Darius broke out of his chains earlier than expected and decided to come after me. I think it was a pretty smart idea since Darius' words were “You're mine now.” when we were back in his room. It was scary how even in his warped state, whatever it was that had taken a hold of him, still wanted me, but for what? Even though Cain had tried to assure me that it was going to keep Darius out, I wasn't sure I was worried about that. Darius could barge into my room right now and in this moment for all I cared, and I wasn't sure I would be able to do anything to stop it. Unlike Cain, I still believed that the real Darius was buried deep inside, and we could still reach him, even without the ritual. Cain on the other hand, didn't share that sentiment with me. I shook my head slightly, willing the thoughts to go

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 61

    Kiara's POV The walk down the hall was endless, and with each step I took, I felt the walls closing in on me. My breath hitched in my throat, but no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't force myself to exhale. I parted my lips a bit, just so I could breath in through my mouth. It was working, but I knew I had bigger problems than my breathing pattern. I snuck a glance at Cain beside me. He hadn't said a word since the lady walked into the room. Apparently, and from the pieces of conversation they shared, they knew each other, although at arms length. She was a maid named Ember, and that was all I knew. I had no idea how they'd started talking, they weren't friends, but their relationship was a unique one, in a completely platonic way, that is. “What do you think happened now?” I muttered to myself. “I hadn't seen him since I chained him up. I always said I was going to go back to check on him….”“He would have killed you if you went.” Cain’s voice reached my ears. Up until

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 60

    Kiara's POV The list Cain had given me sat on my nightstand like a threat. In the last couple of hours, I hadn't dared to move it. I didn't even want to glance at it. It was silly and probably unreasonable, but a small part of me couldn't help but feel like if I stared at it too much, it would catch up into flames. I didn't want to think about the fact that Hazel had told me plainly to my face that most of the items on the list were hard to come by, impossible if I was being honest. That thought alone was destabilizing and if we didn't get the items, then there was no way Darius would ever get better. A small sigh slid past my lips. A wave of cold raced down my spine, and I rubbed my arms around myself. I'd been doing that for the past thirty minutes now, and it was safe to say that nothing had changed. The air conditioning in the room wasn't switched on, so there was no way the room was the cause. The cold came from the inside, and I knew the cause. I snuck another glance at t

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 59

    Kiara's POV My heart thundered wildly in my chest, and no matter what I tried to calm it down, the vital organ just wouldn't budge. I'd even tried a couple of breathing exercises too, but none of them seemed to be working. I'd inhaled and exhaled, I'd even counted the many doors I'd walked past on my way here, but nothing. None of them seemed to be working, and I hated it. Frustration nipped at my sides, and I clenched my fists by my side. Whole I did that, I was careful to not ruin or crumple up the list Cain had given me. I'd been fidgeting the moment he left, and I was a hundred percent sure that I'd wrinkled those pages more than necessary. It was a miracle how they weren't already shredded into pieces by now. A small beep from up ahead was all it took to pull me out of my thoughts. It had come from one of the doors beeping shut, and as the guard walked past me, I could already tell what he was thinking. What the hell was she still doing out here?I wasn't sure of the exact

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 58

    Kiara's POV I spent the rest of the day pretending like I wasn't unraveling on the inside. With each breath I took after that moment, it felt like a small part of me was breaking off, chipping off slowly and slowly, till the rest of my body followed. After I'd agreed to Cain's plans, something in me cracked a little. I couldn't put a finger to where and how it was happening, but I felt it. Deep in my bones too, and it was nowhere near a pretty feeling. It felt like I'd just signed a contract with blood, my blood, Darius' blood and even Cain’s too, and the ink was taking too long to dry on my soul. I wasn't sure it was ever going to do that, and even if Darius got better, I wasn't sure I would be able to live with the guilt of what I'd done to him. Chaining him up like a dog, when he was worth more than that. I didn't sleep, I couldn't,no matter how hard I tried. Nightmares haunted my dreams, and each and every one of them had a constant variable in between them. Darius, but t

  • Awakening the White Wolf   Chapter 57

    Kiara's POV I didn't want to believe my ears, I couldn't. I didn't to believe that there was no other way out, except the way Cain had offered. There was every possibility he was also joking, right?Wrong. I was very very wrongMy gaze darted to Cain, and he still wore the same expression he wore when he'd told me about the tome. Seriousness etched into a face that held a stoic expression stared back at me, and I wondered if truly this was the only way out.I didn't like the answer to that question, but just because I didn't like something, didn't mean I wasn't going to have to do it.“You're stalling.” Cain's voice cut through my monologue. For a quick second there, I had totally forgotten that he was still supposed to be standing in front of me. “Why? You seemed so sure about wanting to save him.”“I was.” My mouth went dry. “I mean, I am. It's just….”“It's not as easy as you thought?” A sadistic smirk slid past his lips, “Would it be fair if I said I told you so, and rub it i
