Chapter 16 Kaia's POV “You have this smile on your face and I'm not even saying anything funny. You're thinking about Alpha, right?" Dani asked, wiggling her eyebrow suggestively. “Maybe." I sang, skipping to the other side of the table to help the children who were failing at their attempt of designing a cookie. She exclaimed excitedly, “I knew it!” Ever since the day in Kieran’s office, I found myself wanting more, to be held, touched and just be with him. At first, he was busy with training and then meetings but he was always around for dinner which I appreciated as I've always hated eating alone. Lylah managed to get to me and I started to believe that Kieran was being sincere not playing the long game. My relationship with Dani and Ryder also became better. I found myself coming out of my shell every day and the smile I thought I'd lost a long time ago was slowly returning. “Luna, do mine." Freya said, jumping happily as she pushed her cookies towards me

Chapter 17Kaia's POV “Get your hands off my mate!" Lylah growled, coming to the surface. Both Kieran and the woman froze before turning to me. The girl couldn't be any older than I am, with a slender build and blonde hair which framed her heart shaped face. Her eyes widened in surprise, and she took a step back, releasing Kieran from her hug. “It's not what you think, Luna." she said, her voice filled with genuine apology. Kieran's expression turned sheepish, and he rubbed the back of his neck. "Allie just arrived, she wanted to see you.” he explained, his eyes locked on mine. That didn't make any sense, so I waited for him to tell me who this ‘Allie’ girl was before I went all crazy on them. “I'm his sister," she said, and I felt a wave of relief wash over me, followed by a dash of embarrassment at my overreaction. Lylah's growl subsided, replaced by a curious whisper in my mind. “I'm sorry, my wolf can get out of control sometimes." Kieran chuckled, coming to stand b

Chapter 18 Kaia's POV Instead of Kieran, Ryder was the one driving us to the mall. We couldn't go the previous day because he insisted that it was getting late and with the recent report of rogues attacking people, he didn't want to risk it. “We should get a pedicure and probably a spa treatment first." Allie suggested. She sat in the front seat with Ryder while Dani and I stayed at the back. “And then we can go lingerie shopping. I want to give Caleb a few surp–" Ryder's head jerked back, his eyes wide with shock and embarrassment, “can you keep that information to yourself, I definitely didn't need to hear that.” He said before turning back to face the road. Dani rolled her eyes, "no one asked you to listen.” She replied. "It'll give you an idea of what to do when you finally find your mate.” I added and Allie's head snapped to him so fast, I was afraid she'd get whiplashed. He groaned, his eyes flicking to look at me in the rearview mirror. “Come on, don't joi

Chapter 19Kaia's POV As we entered the boutique, I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed at the sight. As usual, a lot of other people were picking out what they wanted. They were a whole lot. I wouldn't even know where to start from. Allie and Dani, being more experienced, led the way, moving between the racks of delicate lace and silk. I followed closely beside them, taking in the sight of everything. “Do you know what you're looking for?" The attendant asked. Allie nodded, “we're fine." The lady nodded and left us to go attend to the group of girls who just entered. As we went further into the large boutique, Dani picked up a beautiful, red corset with black lace trims, “what do you think about this, Luna?” She asked, holding it up against me. "It's beautiful.” I replied. "But isn't it too…" I trailed off, not finding the right words to use. Allie raised an eyebrow, “try it on first and then you can decide if you want it or not.” My eyes widened in shock,

Chapter 20 Kaia's POV I wasn't sure how long I cried for, but Kieran caressing my back calmed me down. His soft voice murmured reassurances in my ears, “It's okay baby, I'm right here." He whispered, and I nodded. His earthly and wild smell enveloped me, comforting me, like he was home. “Are you okay?" He asked after a while. I nodded. My tears had subsided and my breath had slowed down. His hand still traced circles on my back as if he was reassuring himself that I was okay. “I'm sorry I wet your shirt." I said. “It's just a shirt, it'll dry off." He replied. When I finally looked at him, concern was etched on his face and even though he was trying to smile, it was obvious he was worried. Once my crying was done, I noticed we were the only ones outside which left me wondering where they all went and as if reading my thoughts, he said, “I asked all of them to leave." “Oh." I murmured, my voice barely above a whisper. He held my hand and led me through the now

Chapter 21Kaia's POV (Matured scene…nothing serious.) Our lips met in a soft, gentle kiss. It felt like time had stopped. Kieran's lips were warm and inviting. It was better than anything I'd imagined…way better. I felt myself melting into his touch. His hand wrapped around my hair, tugging it back but not in the way that hurts. His other hand cups the back of my neck, easily holding me in place. I kiss him back and he lets out a groan, pushing his tongue past my lips when I part them for him. It slides against mine in a way that I've never experienced. He knew exactly what he was doing. I let out a loud moan…good thing no other room was beside ours. He tilted his head, deepening our kiss and I wrapped my hand around him, pulling him closer and he obliged, his body pressing against mine. He let out another growl as his hand caressed my body, stopping on my waist, sending shivers down my spine. His lips left mine, trailing kisses on my neck and sucking hard where his

Chapter 22Kieran's POV Hearing Kaia talk about all the horrible things she went through in her former pack broke my heart, the more she spoke, I felt angry. Not at her, at the fact that I didn't find her earlier and that her father allowed her to be treated like that. I'm sure that if I was ever in a room with any of them, they wouldn't be coming out alive. But hearing her laughter gave me a sense of relief that at least she was okay and she was getting better. “I still can't believe Luna went through all of that! She's so strong.” Ryder said, snapping me out of my thoughts. No matter how much I insisted on just staying in the room and not doing anything, Kaia refused. She didn't want to leave Dani and the others to take care of the kids, so here I am, lost in thoughts and thinking about the different ways things would've gone if she'd agreed. “I've narrowed down the packs she's from to these four.” Caleb said, placing a file in front of me. I smirked, "this was exa

Chapter 23Allie's POV I sighed as Kaia pulled away from the room and my brother, who was confused about what she was talking about. “How did you know?" I asked, crossing my hands on my chest. For the longest while, I thought I hid it well. But with her comment a few minutes ago, it was obvious I was only deceiving myself and I wasn't as sneaky as I thought. She shrugged, “I mean, it's really obvious. And except they choose to play along, I'm pretty sure everyone can see it." She replied and a loud groan escaped my lips. “But I hid it so well!" Kaia snorted, "you look at him like he stole your candy. And I would know a lot about that.” She said, a sad look flashed through her eyes and I sighed again. My crush on Ryder began the moment I knew what it meant…which was really young. But even at a young age, I found him really charming. I always thought he was good looking and kind because even as my brother's best friend, he made me feel included. Then I learnt t

Chapter 148 Dylan's POV I was in shock as I continued staring at the girl…Nora. The way she put herself in front of me was making my wolf go crazy. My mind was no longer on what was being discussed in the room, all I wanted was to talk to her…alone, to confirm I wasn't imagining things. “Keep your eyes on her," Alpha Kieran commanded, bringing me back to the present. “I need to talk to Ryder about something." Nodding slightly, I led her out of the office and immediately we were out, she hastened her footsteps, trying to get away, but I was fast, grabbing her arms and the sparks which I had thought was a fragment of my imagination earlier, shot through me again. I could tell she felt it too. “What was that?" She feigned a confused look, “what was what?" She asked, snatching her arm out of my hand. I let out a frustrated sigh, my wolf wanted to take control but that would be a mistake on my part. He was far from being patient and the girl in front of me needed a whol

Chapter 147 Kaia's POV The door opened and Dylan entered with a familiar face standing beside him…Nora! I haven't seen her as much since I ran away and was brought back. She had her head facing the ground and Dylan…well, he looked like him, just a little tense. “You know her?" Dylan asked, not masking his shock. I nodded, “she works in the kitchen." I replied. “What did you do to her? She looks like she wants to disappear." Kieran snorted as he sat upright, his arms around me loosening. “You found something?” He asked, clearly not interested in small talk. Dylan nodded and stepped forward, stretching a phone to Kieran. "She was talking to her mom about Luna Kaia, and there are pictures of her on the phone.” He said. “I think it might be connected to the attack." He added, his voice low as he spoke and he looked away from her. My eyes widened, my jaw dropped as I looked at the girland I found it hard to believe, considering how many times she defended me in the presence

Chapter 146Dylan's POV No matter how many times I repeated it to myself that I was acting under a spell, it didn't help the guilt I felt, especially when I saw the bruises on Alpha Kieran's body. No doubt he didn't fight back which made everything worse. “You're here again." Allie said, “you're stealing my thinking spot and I don't think I like it." She added, coming to sit beside me on the bench. The pavilion was her favorite spot and because it was mostly secluded, it became mine too. “Thinking spot, huh? What else do you have to think about? You're the happiest I've seen you." Her smile widened, “I am happy…but it doesn't mean I can't come here to think." She said. “A lot of things have happened the past few days and even weeks, I just want things to go back to how they used to be." I nodded, understanding what she was talking about. Her mom was currently sitting in the dungeon and she didn't want to hear anything about her. “I thought things were going well

Chapter 145 Kieran's POV I turned back to Gerald, now, even more determined as I couldn't wait to find out what Kaia wanted to tell me. “I'm listening." I said, referring to the question I asked him. “All I know is that the Alpha of their Pack knew something he shouldn't and in order to silence him, rogues were sent to their Pack, catching them unaware." He said, “but I had nothing to do with it." He insisted. “By their Alpha, you mean Alpha Marcus?" Caleb asked. My brows furrowed, everyone knew he was the Alpha and there was no need dwelling on that. But Gerald shook his head, “Alpha Marcus is the twin brother of the real Alpha." He said, “Alpha Matthew is the elder twin which makes him the rightful heir to the throne." I messaged my temple gently, if this was true, we were years away from finding Kaia's biological parents. I wanted to ask how he knew all of this, something even my Dad as an Alpha didn't know…or probably because I didn't ask. Caleb had suddenly g

Chapter 144 Kieran's POV Apart from the things we found after rummaging through the house we found out belonged to Gerald and his mate after they were banished from the Pack, we haven't found anything new. And the location of Gerald's mate and the son, whose name was Felix was yet to be determined, but we now have names we were working on, instead of just wild guesses. It was confirmed that this Felix guy was born earlier than I was, which would suggest that the reason he was dead set on attacking the Pack was because he thinks that for whatever reason, he was supposed to be the Alpha of the Pack. “I mean, out of all the things I knew was wrong with your mom, cheating on your dad is next level.” King said. "You do know they're your parents too, right?” "Nah, I'll pass. But I'm glad he did the right thing.” My Dad’s rejection came as a surprise to me, it was the last thing I expected him to do. And no doubt, the rejection was weighing on both of them, but my

Chapter 143 Kaia's POV After everyone left to carry out the task that had been assigned to them, only Katherine and I were left in the office, sitting opposite each and the both of us didn't try to start up any conversation, which for a moment was good because the only thing I could think about was Kieran bringing back the person behind this spell and also hoping that Dylan was okay. “Why didn't we think of Nessa?" Lylah asked me, and my eyes widened. “Fuck!" I cursed, “What if that's the reason she's been staying away because she's planning this?" I replied, asking a question of my own. I stood up, with a sense of urgency, causing Katherine to look up at me. “What's wrong? Is everything okay with Dylan?" She asked. The worry in her voice made me forget for a brief moment why I stood up. Of course she was worried about her son. She knew that no matter what she said, Dylan still would've offered to be the bait. “He's fine." I told her. It hasn't been long s

Chapter 142 Alpha Tyler’s POV I can't believe Clarissa would do something like this, a huge part of me was already trying to deny the possibility of her having a child before our first son. There was no way that could've happened without my knowledge considering we found each other really early but the resemblance between the boy and Kieran was uncanny. Even after the evidence, I managed to convince myself that something else was at play but the past few weeks, her sudden disappearance left me questioning if I was protecting myself and pretending not to see what was happening. But spells? She has gone too far this time. Even a blind person could see how much both Kieran and Kaia cared for each other. Her position was never a problem…neither was it for me, as long as she made Kieran happy, I was fine. If Clarissa had been an ordinary wolf, I still would've taken her as my Luna without a second thought. But for some reason, it didn't sit well with Clarissa and she was m

Chapter 141Caleb's POV There was no doubt that this wasn't going to be an easy mission. Luna Clarissa wouldn't willingly come with us for whatever reason and a huge part of me wanted to use part of the potions that could subdue a Lycan but the possibility of her dying from it was high. I wouldn't blame Luna Kaia, if she refuses to heal her. “What do you mean?" Dani asked, her eyes widening. “Is Allie okay?" I nodded. "She's fine. Ryder is taking care of her and Elizabeth already assured us that she just needs to wake up now.” I told her. "Oh my gosh! I have to go see her.” Her voice came out low, the worry in them could be felt from miles away. That was the same reaction we had but thank goddess she had the help she needed. “Ryder is with her, but Luna Kaia is alone with Katherine. Go to her instead." She nodded and wrapped her hand around me. I could feel her fear and worry through our bond and they were justified. It was like we couldn't catch a break, and goin

Chapter 140 Kieran's POV I was angry…no, mad. My eyes darkened and I could feel the veins on my neck popping out. King was struggling to take over and rip my mom to pieces. I couldn't believe she would go to that extent to make sure Kaia was out of the picture. Kaia's grip on my arm was the only reason I was still in the office and not on my way to their house. “Bella–” My voice came out strained. Watching my sister in that condition and the fact that it was supposed to be for made my blood boil. “Listen to me," Kaia said, her voice equally angry which threw me off balance for a few seconds. “I know you want to deal with your mom in the worst way possible and I'm on the same page with you.” She continued. Caleb, who was standing a few feets away from me nodded at what Kaia said and so did Dylan.
