Chapter 160 Kaia's POV The next few hours was pure torture, Dylan wouldn't tell us anything but at this point, I doubt he had any information to share either. At first, I thought trying to sleep might make everything pass by even faster so I locked myself in the room hoping to force myself to sleep but it was a waste of time. “Let's go for a walk, I think I'm going to go crazy if I remain here." I said, and they all turned to face me. “It's good for the babies." I added. “Kaia, that's not a good idea. It's going to be over soon and you can go for a walk all you want." Dylan said, “it's safer being in the house." I just stared at him as if he was speaking gibberish. I understood what he meant, but Lylah was driving me crazy. She wanted to hear from King but since he blocked us out, we couldn't feel anything so the only way to take her mind off things was putting her attention on something else. After so much back and forth, he gave in…he didn't have much choice, espec
Chapter 159 Kieran's POV “Where are we now?" I asked Caleb, who had joined me in the backseat, letting one of the warriors take over driving so he could concentrate on the call. “They've gotten to the house, but Luna Kaia has locked herself in her room." He replied. I nodded, clutching the jacket which had her scent closer to my chest. “What about Ryder?" Everything so far was going according to plan, and with Kaia safely away, I could focus on the mission. The witch's spell was keeping both mine and Caleb's smell hidden to avoid making them suspicious before we attacked. “They shouldn't be too far behind, Ryder had them leave almost immediately as well." He replied. “But do you think they bought it? What if they are waiting for us to leave the Pack and then attack?" I sighed, I've thought about that ever since we came up with this plan. The thought crossed my mind that what if instead of going after Kaia, they would return to the Pack to free Gerald but the more I
Chapter 158 (There will be a change of POV in this chapter) Nessa's POV I watched as they made their way out of the Pack, and I hurriedly returned back to the house. Now was our only chance to act. With Alpha Kieran away, it was the perfect time to get rid of her. I no longer care about if she was going to be alive by the time I was done. Time was running out for me, my parents were somewhere out there and the more I delayed looking for them, the more I felt a strain grow…the more anxious I felt. I kept thinking about the fact that something might have happened to them because I was wasting time considering other problems. My actual birthday was a few days away and if she was gone, the search for my parents would commence immediately I've done what I needed to do…the best reunion gift I could give to the was a payback to those who hurt our family. Although it was happening with Luna Clarissa in prison and rejected by Alpha Tyler, I still wanted to do more Once I go
Chapter 157 Kaia's POV If I had a time machine, I'd definitely pause the day, so I didn't have to stay away from Kieran. But I didn't, hence the reason he was getting ready to leave. We had gone through the plan several times and I was convinced that we were going to be fine. “Be careful tomorrow, okay?” I said, “and are you sure you want me to go that far?” He paused, turning to face me, his hand rubbing my arm. “It's the only way I would be able to concentrate on anything else.” He replied. “I'm going to come get you myself once I'm done here.” He assured me and I nodded. Taking my hands in his, he led me towards the car where the others were waiting for us and once we got there, I saw Nessa standing beside Dani. “It was time to get my act on.” I thought, grabbing his hand even more tightly as we approached them. On seeing us, Caleb opened the door after bowing his head to greet him and the other followed suit, murmuring a quiet, “Alpha, Luna.” “Are you sure
Chapter 156 Kaia's POV I was convinced the moon goddess was bored, but the smile on Allie's face was so worth it. She was glowing and everyone could see it. A proud look was permanently etched on his face even though he was about to have his head handed to him by my scowling mate. The past few days have been so stressful but it was impossible not to notice the absence of both of them. Besides, I already suspected that that was the case after hearing her explanation of why she was scared to know who her second chance mate was. There was probably more to it, but at this point, nothing could surprise me anymore. “Now that it is in the open, you want to tell me why you broke her heart?” Kieran asked, crossing his arms in front of him and glaring at Ryder, whose face looked like he'd seen a ghost. The smile on Allie's face disappeared almost at once too. The rest of us in the room watched as the scene unfold, I mean, it would've been abnormal if he hadn't noticed that.
Chapter 155 Ryder's POV I've thought about it and no matter how many times I did, it didn't make sense. Everything went well in the Pack, yet it didn't feel that way. It felt like I'd done something I wasn't supposed to but yet, I can't remember it. At first, I concluded it was because I hadn't returned to her room, but the report and filling Kieran in with everything took time. I was a few minutes away from losing my mind and it was making me pay less attention to the things going on in the Pack even though it was a crucial moment for us, with everything Kieran was planning. “Are the warriors ready?" I heard Kieran ask. “She's avoiding me, I'm not sure why." I replied, and as soon as the words left my lips, I groaned internally as three heads jerked towards my direction, all of them wearing a smirk. “It's not what you guys think." I told them. Dylan snorted, “yea sure." Ignoring Dylan, I gave him a run down of how the training was going and how in a few days, we
Chapter 154 Allie's POV I woke up with a start, sunlight penetrating my eyes from the curtain I left open before going to bed. I had been too tired to even think about closing them. The full moon has long ended at this point and I knew I'd have to explain to the girls sooner or later why I was absent last night. “I can't believe I slept for this long.” I thought, groaning as I stretched my body. The space beside me was cold which meant Ryder hadn't come in at all and I frowned. “Did he go back to his place?” I thought. Not waiting to come up with reasons why he would return to his place instead of coming here as usual, I pushed myself up from the bed. I would get an answer from him instead. So I went to the bathroom to take a shower. But the moment I stepped out of the shower, a weird smell hit my nostrils causing me to pause. It was a feeling I was familiar with and the last time I experienced it, it didn't end well. I felt dread beginning to rise within me as it hit me
Chapter 153Kaia's POV “She's my stepsister." I heard Caleb say. Loud gasps filled the room once the words left Caleb's lips. I didn't know what I was expecting when Kieran demanded an explanation for why Caleb hugged me…but definitely wasn't expecting that. The hug suddenly became the least of the problems. “What are you talking about? How's that possible?" I asked, looking at Kieran and the unbelief etched on his face was similar to the one I was wearing. “We have the same mother." He replied and I heard Kieran murmured something along the lines of, “you've got to be fucking kidding me." Before now…I mean even now, Caleb was the one person I knew next to nothing about because apart from Pack related conversation and when we were with everyone, we rarely spoke. There was nothing to talk about and it wasn't a problem. Him being nice to me and smiling when I was in the same room was already an improvement from the person I knew when I first found myself in the Pack. And n
Chapter 152 Caleb's POV My mind was a mess, with every passing moment, the uneasiness I was feeling didn't become any better even after leaving Kieran's office. And the reason for that is something I was still trying to figure out. The only thing I knew was that it started at the mention of a name, one that sounded way too familiar but at the same time, I couldn't place where I heard it before. “What's going on? I know you slept well last night, why do you look like you didn't get a wink of sleep?” Dani asked, coming to meet me. “Are you okay?” She asked, a hint of worry in her voice. I shook my head, “I’m okay.” I assured her, she already had enough on her plate to worry about than for me to add to it when I didn't even know the reason I was feeling this way. She raised her eyebrows, not buying a word I said. “Do you want to try that again?” “I don't know either, I just…” I paused. “I can't place my finger on it.” She stared at me, her hand caressing the side of m
