Chapter 92Kieran's POV Everything was ready, the portion had been made, what was left was to put it in place and that was going to happen tonight. But to the warriors and everyone else who knew about it, it wasn't happening until next week. What happened during the full moon mustn't repeat itself. Caleb had thrown himself in front of me, knowing fully well that the effect was less severe on me. But according to him, he wanted to make sure I caught those traitors and if I'd gotten shot, it'd be hard to transport me. My command for him to rest fell on deaf ears, as he was in my office a day later, ready to get back to work. But I actually needed his help as the only other person I could trust decided was barely himself for reasons best to him. The door swung open and Kaia came in, her smell filled my nostrils, and a sense of ease washed over me. Her presence alone was calming, exactly what I needed at the moment. “Luna…” Caleb called, standing up to bow to her, someth
Chapter 93 Kieran's POV As soon as I got back to the pack house where Caleb, Dylan and surprisingly Ryder were waiting for me, it was time to leave. I also mind-linked about five other warriors including Scott, who used to be Kaia's bodyguard. They were the only ones I could trust and they were also part of the people who came along when we went to the forest for the flower. I turned to Kaia whose expression had changed to that of worry. “We’ll be back before you know it.” I assured her and she nodded. "Try to stay out of trouble…no jumping in front of poison or anything." She warned, her eyes landed on Caleb who just looked away. I smiled softly that she was still able to crack jokes, even though it was one we…he needed to take seriously. The plan was simple: lay ambush on them. They knew we got something that'll work against them, so hopefully they would try to steal it, to prevent us from getting anything. “We’re ready to head out, Alpha.” Caleb called, lo
Chapter 94 Kaia's POV I woke up with warm arms wrapped around me. Lylah purred softly as I leaned more into him, the warmth radiating from his body sent my body into a state of frenzy. There was no getting used to his touch…to the way I feel whenever he was close. My body had a mind of their own, as they melted, enjoying every second. Turning my body to face him, I was met with his eyes already staring at me with so much intensity and he offered me a smile once our gaze met. “Hey,” I whispered, my voice barely above a whisper. "Hey,” he repeated, matching my tone. "I love how your body responds to my touch.” He murmured, pulling me closer and I let him. No words needed to be said again as I enjoyed the cuddling. Who knows how soon moments like this would happen again without him having to respond to one urgent mindlink or something else. Soon, I found myself dozing and the sleep was very much welcome. The next time I opened my eyes, I was alone on the bed, but
Chapter 95Unknown POV I paced around the room, my feet pounding on the floor as I went back and forth and it was the only sound that could be heard. My jaw tightened the more I thought about it and my hand was folded into a fist. “How could they be so stupid?" I muttered, my voice low and deadly. My fist was itching to run into something…particularly someone. They were going to ruin everything I've spent months planning when I was so close to fulfilling it. The past few months, I've derived pleasure in watching them suffer, going around and trying to figure who I was. Dumb fools, how was he even an Alpha? That should be me, instead, I was cast to the side like a piece of trash to be forgotten. But that wasn't going to happen, I wouldn't give up until I took what belongs to me. The door opened and the culprit entered, his legs trembling as he took slow steps towards me. I rushed to him, grabbing his neck and my hand tightened around him, lifting him until his legs wer
Chapter 96 Kaia's POV Maria remained frozen like a deer caught in the headlights, a few of my dresses in her hands and her eyes didn't leave mine. I stood there, trying to comprehend what was going on, but I couldn't go past the mess made. “What happened to my things?" I asked, moving around, trying to pick my things, especially my underwear which were laying everywhere in the room. “I-I didn't d-do it.” She stammered, "I was coming in to c-clean up but I met the mess." She explained. At this point, I could already feel anger building up inside me. Maria had always been efficient, doing everything that was asked of her, and had never given me a reason to be suspicious of her. But considering the fact that the room was locked and if I needed her to clean up, I would have given her the key or something. After having a long day, the last thing I wanted to deal with was this. “Maria," I called calmly, “you want me to believe that you somehow managed to get into my loc
Chapter 97Kieran's POV (there's a little mention of violence) The shooters weren't healing as fast as I wanted them to, so we had the pack doctor look at them and they were starting to get better. But with the break in our room, Kaia was on the edge so she was back to having a bodyguard. After her panic attack last night, I knew we had to speed up what we had to do to get to the real person behind the attacks and the shooting. “Alpha, they're ready to talk." Caleb's voice rang in my head. I was already on my way to them, so I hastened my pace. King was eager to get to them also. After watching our mate go through pain, it only fueled our determination. The three men were all kneeling with their hands tied up with ropes that had been dipped in wolfsbane. Their groaning and the sounds of whips against their skin filled the dungeon. I guess they didn't like the taste of their own medicine. "Who do you work for?” I asked. The three of them looked at each other and
Chapter 98Kieran's POV "I found something, Alpha.” Dylan said, and I nodded for him to come in, which he did, taking the seat in front of me. “Ashley?" I asked, resting my back as I waited for him to start talking. “I found her, but she didn't do it." He started, “she agreed that she has a grudge against Kaia…Luna but she swore that she didn't do it.” Ignoring the slip off, I frowned. "That doesn't prove that she didn't do it.” I pointed out, a feeling of disappointment seared through me. I had expected that he was coming with something concrete and not speculation. "It doesn't. But when I asked her about the fight with Maria, she went quiet.” Now, my interest was piqued as he continued, “they were arguing about a boy…” "Hold on…" I interrupted, massaging my temple gently to soothe the headache I knew was coming. “How did we go from solving a break in to boy issues?” I asked him. He chuckled lightly, “They weren't fighting because they loved the same guy, it
Chapter 99 Luna Clarissa’s POV (Kieran's mom) I was struggling to keep a calm facade, the secret I've fought so hard to keep was the same one Kieran was trying to pull apart. If he finds out, it would not only break my mate, it'd ruin me. It was a secret I swore to take to my grave. “Are you okay? Your emotions are all over the place." Tyler, my mate said, his hands wrapped around me, it was just like when we were younger. I nodded softly, “I'm okay." I lied. “It's just hard to believe that my own son would turn his back on me." That was true but all for what? A girl who should be nothing more than a slave if I was being generous. “Let's give him time, she's his mate after all…and you know how protective he is when it comes to Allie.” There was no denying their closeness, but it was for them. Everything I was doing, was for their benefit. Allie was almost twenty one and still hadn't found her mate and I was only looking out for her. "Don't think too much a
Chapter 149 Ryder's POV With the new information on ground, Kieran wanted to catch two birds with one stone. So all hands were on deck to make sure that this plan was a success. But he had a separate mission for me. Nora had mentioned that after Luna Kaia was born, a locket was worn around her neck so that when she grew up, she would have an idea about her identity but obviously, she didn't see it which means it was still somewhere in her former Pack and her Dad…adopted father would have an idea about it. We knew almost everything about her identity, but it was the last and probably the only thing Luna Kaia received from her biological father, so I was going to get it back and probably put some sense into him. “How many days are you going to spend there?" Allie asked, pouting as she watched me get ready to leave. “I should be back at the latest tomorrow…I don't think I'm going to survive more than a day without you.” She grinned widely, "how about I come along? It'
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
