Kaliya's Pov—————-'Find a way to get to her, apologize for your wrongdoings' My father's words stuck to my head and I lay back at the temple, in my wolf form, the most natural form I could be in front of the goddess."Please, goddess. Let me hear you" I whispered for the hundredth time, but it again, I shifted back into my human form and bleed from my nose. It hurt and it seemed unstoppable the more I mentioned the goddess. But I wouldn't stop. I could not. Not after all that was happening. "I am sorry, goddess of the Moon. Please, have mercy on your people" I cried out with a weak voice. I had been doing this for the course but it seemed to have no effect. "I have failed you, I know. I have humiliated myself, I apologize, goddess.""You were once pure, Kaliya," The goddess' voice was like thunder, filling the temple. "My favorite, my loyal companion. But now...now you're tainted."I whimpered, my wolf ears flat against my head."You allowed yourself to be defiled," She continued,
Cody’s pov———————-I was back at the south, my mind troubled from having to leave Kaliya the way I did.Lou and Lumi were by the corner having a heated argument and Clinton just still watching them, my presence had not been known so they all continued what they were doing until Lumi glanced in my direction.“You!” She screamed coming towards me with anger, I remained where I was ready to take whatever it is she was going to dish at me.“Why? You still haven’t told me why!!” She said poking at my chest, Lou came to stand behind her and I frowned, but then I didn’t have time for him just yet.“Whatever you think this is is not what happened, it was not kaliyas fault it was mine, more like ours” I said and she frowned dropping her hand. There were tears gathering in her eyes and I saw Lou clench his fist, just what was his problem ? I thought to myself.“I know my sister would never do such to me so obviously I am blaming you, did you do something to her? Was she under some sort of spe
Kaliya -------------- things were worse, weird and strange, my father had warned the maids and guards in the castle against spreading what went down, things got an even darker shade of worse when uncle kato came this morning with Lumi, my heart couldn't bear to look at either of them. I was on my knees in my father's throne room eyes on the floor, uncle Kato had left not quite long, it was a shocker to hear about what my father did for the kingdom, I know what he did was wrong especially the deceit part but I understand, I don't know if it is because I am guilty of deceit too that I understand what my father had done. "The kingdom is going to fall" my father muttered, since uncle Kato left he had been a zoned out state, just talking to himself and calling my mother's name repeatedly, this was too much for him to bear as well. I hadn't had a wink of sleep cause whenever I close my eyes I keep seeing Lumi's face or the face of some villagers bloodied and battered open, I haven't be
75. Lumi's PovIt was the next day and none of us could sleep, not with what was brewing in the community and the palace. I had told my father what happened, yet he wanted to hear by himself what his brother had said."I had heard from Lumi. I wish that we talk, as adults"I stood beside Father as he spoke, my eyes cast downward as Alpha Akkar began to speak. His words poured out like a confession."It was my idea to seek Cody's help," he said, his voice laced with regret. "I was the one who offered your daughter, Lumi, as his bride."I felt a lump form in my throat as Father's expression turned from concern to shock and then to anger. He took a step forward, his eyes blazing. "You used my daughter as a bargaining pawn?" Father's voice was low and menacing.Akkar nodded, "I was desperate, Kato. I didn't think about the consequences."Father's anger was evident, and I could feel his pain. He had brought me back to the palace thinking I was overreacting, but now he saw the truth.Akkar
Cody -------------- The more Akkar ranted the angrier I got but I couldn't do anything about it for the sake of kaliya, my princess was hurting and it pierced my soul that there was nothing I could do to stop it, I could easily take her away from here but she wouldn't like that. I for one do not care about what was happening, didn't care that Lumi was hurting or anything, I was only concerned because all of these affected kaliya. "Are you happy now?, you d-" "Shut up Akkar, i have heard enough of you spewing nonsense" I said in a boring tone, he really was pissing me off, kaliya's attention was on me now and so was Lumi, I had watched them argue as kaliya cried trying to talk to her, I got angry each time fresh tears dropped from her eyes, I should just kill everyone instead of wait for the goddess to do it because they were really making me angry, she didn't deserve what was being thrown at her, her only fault was giving me a chance and if I could I would do it all over again.
Kaliya's Pov ——————- I stood frozen, my eyes fixed on Lumi's back as she turned away from me. I knew I deserved her anger, but it still hurt to see the hurt and disgust in her eyes. "Lumi, please listen... I can explain," I begged, my voice shaking. She turned around, her face red with rage. "Explain? Do you think you can explain away what you did? You're supposed to be sacred, pure... but you're just like the rest of them." I took a step forward, my hands stretched out. "Lumi, I—" But she cut me off, her words slowly moving to my system like poison "For your pleasure, for selfish desires, you hurt me. You're no better than the demon you've been with." Like an arrow catapulted into my chest, I began to ache but she spoke the truth. I had been so blinded by my desires that I hadn't thought about how my actions would affect those I loved. "How could you do this to us, to Father? To yourself?" Lumi's voice cracked, and tears streamed down her face. I felt a swelling form in my t
