Chapter 61

Kaia's POV

Kieran left in a hurry after getting a mindlink from Ryder. I didn't have it in me to eat more, so I took the plates to the kitchen even though Nora rushed to collect them from me.

I found out from Kieran that she'd told him about my conversation with Ida.

Once that was done, I went towards the child care. I'm sure Kieran wouldn't like it that I wasn't resting like he wanted, but being in the room alone was boring.

“Luna!" Dani called.

“Kaia!" Allie exclaimed, coming to my side. "You should be resting. How did you convince my brother to make him agree?”

"I didn't.” I replied, smiling sheepishly. "He went to the borders to meet Ryder and I'm bored staying alone by myself.”

They nodded, and led me to the couch so I would sit. No matter how many times I told them I was okay and Kieran was only exaggerating, they didn't believe me. And if anything, he was the one who needed to rest more.

“The children have missed you…everyone did.” Dani said.

    Chapter 62 Kieran's POV “Alpha, we found something." Ryder's voice rang in my head and my hand at Kaia's side froze. “Was it…?” I thought, "Be right there.” I replied, closing the mindlink and standing up. "Is something wrong?” Kaia's soft voice asked and I shook my head. “Ryder thinks he found something, so I'm going to take a look." I told her, placing a kiss on her lips and leaving the room before I get tempted to stay. Shifting into my Lycan, I ran to the pack borders, reaching there in no time before shifting back. Ryder had his back turned to me, giving command to the warriors, who nodded as they diapers. “Alpha." He called once he turned to face me. “What did you find?" He showed me a piece of clothing which was covered in blood. And the smell coming from it, just like we assumed, didn't belong to a rogue. “We found this just outside the pack borders, so our best guess is that he's around somewhere, but injured. But he shouldn't have gone that far."

    Chapter 63Kaia's POV Kieran has been spending more time in the dungeon and each time he gets back, he always has a frustrated look on his face. He had mentioned that they'd finally caught one of the rogues that was making the pack stand on edge but he wasn't admitting to working with anyone. I didn't know who he was, but I had one or two things to tell him about frustrating my man. Lylah still wasn't back and it was starting to make me doubt if she was ever going to come back. I didn't mention it to Kieran because he already had a lot of things he was dealing with. “Come on," Dani whined, “we need to do something fun, other than our normal routine." She grumbled, tugging my arms gently. The three of us just finished helping out at the hospital and we were tired since we spent most of the time on our feet and all I was thinking about was Kieran massaging them. “I agree,” Allie agreed, "I cannot remember the last time we did anything fun. I'm losing my youthful age h

    Chapter 64Kaia's POV “I can't believe you didn't tell us!” Allie whined, pouting her lips like her favorite candy was snatched from her hands. My eyes dropped in guilt, “It kinda skipped my mind." I replied, my voice low. They paused, taking my countenance in, “Why don't you look excited? You should, you've always looked forward to shifting into your wolf." Dani said. I sighed deeply, “At that point, it hadn't sunk in yet, but I'm getting there. I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that I can actually shift and not just that, a rare wolf.” Their expression softened in understanding. I wanted to be able to see her once more to believe that the moon goddess didn't just grant my request because of Kieran and has taken her back. “I'm sure it'll sink in soon." Allie assured me and I nodded. “And members of this pack are lucky because if it was me, they wouldn't hear the end of it." She added. So, after the Pack's meeting the previous day , I met the doctor wh

    Chapter 65 Kaia's POV “Dylan?" "Dylan!” I called, not wanting to believe that the person who looked almost unrecognizable was the same person I knew. His head jerked upward and he tried standing up when he heard his name, and I was right. My hand covered my mouth as I took in his state. His clothes were torn and covered with blood. Some of which looked like they've been there for a long time. His face was swollen. A faint smell of wolfsbane filled my nostrils, explaining why he wasn't completely healing even as a Beta. “Why are you here? Who did this to you?" I asked, my voice trembling at how bad he looked. "Kaia?” He let out in a horse tone. It was like talking became a struggle for him. Looking at him hurt, like air being sucked out of my lungs. “It's me." I replied, beating my chest softly. “Why are you here?" I asked again, now standing in front of his cell. A strained smile appeared on his face as he took in my appearance. “You're okay." He said, his l

    Chapter 66Kieran's POV My meeting with the Alpha's ended, it was the same results. Nobody had heard about that kind of substance before, but I made sure they would keep their eyes open and inform me if they heard anything. Then I went down to the dungeon to see if the prisoner had changed his mind about keeping quiet…he hadn't. Next, I went to have a meeting with the warriors but that didn't end well when different emotions, belonging to Kaia hit me at once. “Are you okay?" I asked her through our mindlink, “your emotions are all over the place." But instead of a response, I felt a wall rising. She'd blocked me. I frowned, “what was going on?" The warriors could tell that something was wrong, but nobody asked me as I hurriedly left the meeting to go in search of her. I ran into Caleb, "Alpha? You're already here?” He asked me, his brows furrowing. He was supposed to be dealing with the other groups -The AXE Running a hand through my hair, I nodded. “Somet

    Chapter 67Kaia's POV Dinner was over and Kieran was nowhere to be found. He'd blocked me out and I couldn't stop pacing around in the room. “This is why you shouldn't block people out, it drives the other party crazy.” I thought and Lylah snickered. At any tiny sound, my head jerks to the door hoping he would enter but there was no such luck. I felt my chest tightened at the thought of something happening to him. Did he run into the shooter again? “Why didn't you tell me if I was going far?" I queried Lylah. She snorted loudly, “You call that far? You went overboard, defying him in front of his members and then you took your step brother's side…do you want more?” "Then why didn't you stop me?” "Would you have stopped if I asked you to?" I kept quiet, she had a point. I had been so concerned about how Dylan was to care about anything else and now, calming down to play everything all over again, I knew that I really have overdone it this time. “Can you reach K

    Chapter 68 Kaia's POV For some reason, I still couldn't stop thinking about Dylan, if he was okay and how he got into the situation in the first place. But telling Kieran was out of it. I barely survived one day with him being mad at me, I'm sure it'd be worse if it happens again. Now that Lylah was back, Kieran was taking active steps to finding out what else Lylah could do apart from healing. He didn't want to assume that all that came up in the records they found was all she could do. Besides, I haven't noticed anything else and I haven't shifted since then either. “What are you thinking so hard about?" Ryder said, sitting beside me on the couch. Kieran had gone with the pack doctor to discuss other details that I definitely wasn't interested in, so I stayed back in his office and so did Ryder. “Nothing," came my sharp reply. “Do you believe that?" My shoulder slumped as I rested my back against the couch. “I don't know. No matter how hard I try, I can't

    Chapter 69Kaia's POV “Dani!" I yelled. "What's going on, Lylah?” I asked my wolf, my body trembling. "I don't know either, I can sense that something is wrong, that's all.” "Do you know where she is?” I asked again. She didn't reply, instead, she showed me the directions to go. I was running like something was after me, making some of the pack members turn to look at me, but I didn't care as I kept running. Lylah yelled the direction to go which I followed without a word. The more we kept going, the more confusion set in. It wasn't even up to five minutes that she left me but I've been running for over that but she was nowhere to be found. Soon, I was almost at the forest which was far away from the pack house, and closer to the borders. My worry intensified when I still couldn't find her. If we were this close to the borders and her scent had gotten all the way here, “was she still in the Pack?" Shaking the thoughts away, “she has to be." A familiar voice

    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

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. "But we have to come up with a plan…I doubt your mom knows anything about spells and going after her without a clear plan would ruin our chance of getting the main people behi

Every moment with Ryder was pure bliss, it felt like we were in the honeymoon stage of our relationship…we kinda were. Even my Lycan was over the moon, her excitement could be felt from miles away. At this point, I didn't care what my brother was going to say when he found out. Ryder wanted to tell him the same day we got back together but I didn't want to rush it and just enjoy our peaceful moments. Besides, I had no doubt that Kieran was going to support me as long as I was happy. “How long are you going to keep staring at me?" I asked Ryder. We were in his house which was outside the Pack house, just lying around. He had been on patrol all through the night, so this was us making up for the lost time. I wasn't even sure I slept well with him not being by my side. “For as long as I want to, Princess. Because I can, and because you're mine." He said, and I

I heard her say, since I was a few steps behind Kieran. “This was the type of cake I ate when I was pregnant with you, I'm sure she'd like it too.” Lylah snorted, “what does she take us for?" She asked, rolling her eyes. Clarissa came towards me, reaching to hold my hand but Kieran stepped in front of me. “Like I said, we have somewhere to be. But don't worry, I'm sure she'll like it." He reached for the bag but she held tightly to it, causing us to raise our brows. “I'm trying to make amends here, let me take care of her and your child like any mom would.” I could tell that Kieran was restraining himself from going off on her a
