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 100Kaia's POV It was still hard to believe that Maria would do something like that and when Kieran questioned her after the said boyfriend…Jake died from the poison, she broke down and admitted that he had been looking for the potion made from the iron bloom flower. She claimed that he told her that it was the last time he was going to get involved with the group and she believed him, hence the reason she was trying to cover up after him. Knowing that it wasn't that, helped keep my mind at ease even though I still had Edward following me around sometimes. He was different from the first one, and he isn't as stiff either. “Good thing Alpha got rid of her…I can't believe she would implicate Ashley for something she didn't do.” Dani said. Allie nodded, "I know right! What happened to girls supporting each other?” “She was probably absent when that was taught.” I joked and the three of us laughed. Nessa wasn't around today, she mentioned something
Chapter 101 Kaia's POV The walk to wherever Alpha Tyler was taking me to didn't take long and I recognized the pathway from the last time I ran after Kieran and speaking of him, I should probably tell him what I was doing. But a part of me was actually relaxed…it might be wrong, but I knew that nothing they said would get me to leave Kieran again. Not this time. “I really love you…” Lylah started, and I could sense a but coming. "but you can be dumb sometimes.” My jaw dropped, I didn't even have time to respond to her insult before she continued. "You're willingly walking into the den of the enemies, that's not exactly called taking caution. How do you think our mate is going to feel when he finds out you're here without your bodyguard?” I couldn't contain my shock seeing how she'd never spoken to me in this manner before. And I knew better than to ignore it. “I'm sorry, Lylah." I apologized, promising to tell him. And she just nodded but didn't say anythi
Chapter 102Kaia's POV The four of us agreed to go to the city and Kieran made sure Edward and Dylan went with us but not after giving them several warnings to keep us safe. I'm certain he was letting us go because he wanted to make up the incident with his parents and even it was needed, it was very much appreciated. Ryder sulked that he wanted to be the one to go instead of Dylan but he changed his mind when Kieran glared and the memory of the last time we went together filled my head. And he definitely wasn't going because he wanted to keep us safe or anything, Allie still hasn't given him the chance to talk. It was no surprise when a few hours into the shopping, I was tired. But Nessa was having fun so it was worth it. The gloomy expression was long gone and a permanent smile was in its stead. “Which girl gets tired of shopping? Don't you guys survive on that?" Dylan asked, a bit of teasing in his voice. I rolled my eyes, “tell that to my legs that feels like the
Chapter 103 Unknown POV -Nessa “It's the Luna, she's the healer." I told Felix, entering the cabin we usually met in and I watched as his jaw clenched. “Kieran's mate is a healer? The white wolf?" I mean I was surprised as well, considering how long I've tried to figure out what secret they were hiding. Using the poison on myself was a risk I took but with my stepmom being unable to shut her mouth, I didn't want to delay it anymore. Felix needed to get his plan moving…and for the first time, he decided to involve me. Besides, playing the sweet innocent girl was becoming exhausting. I probably should've come up with a better excuse than not feeling well…but how was I supposed to know that she was going to snoop around looking for my house. “Because she's not the bad person.” My subconscious mind told me. So…it wasn't like I had anything against Kaia, she's nice and all, maybe too trusting. But she was the easiest and fastest way to get to Kieran and then to his p
Chapter 104 Dylan's POV If there was a conversation I was dreading, it was the one I was going to have in a few minutes when Allie walks through the door…it was inevitable. For me, the relationship started as a way to mess with Ryder but I couldn't say the same anymore. Although, a part of me knows that she was never mine in the first place, having seen the way that she looked at him and it was fine…he was one lucky son of a bitch. I could also see the efforts he was putting into talking to her which she ignores most of the time. The door swung open and Allie entered wearing her signature smile that was bright enough to throw any man off their feet. “Let me tell you,” She began, "if Kieran changes his mind on letting tag along to this Alphas’ event, I'm going to throw a tantrum.” I let out a chuckle, easing the tension in my chest. "You're not supposed to be there in the first place.” She rolled her eyes, "and you think I don't know that?" She asked, and I raised
Chapter 105 Kaia's POV (From when she found out she was pregnant) “You're pregnant.” Kieran said. My hand immediately went to my stomach, “Pregnant?" I asked, my eyes widening in shock. Kieran nodded, a proud smile etched on his face as he stared at me, I could tell that he was struggling to keep his excitement in. But I couldn't share the excitement as panic gripped me, my conversation with Lylah before I insisted on healing Nessa came flooding back. “Was this why she was warning me?" I thought, “she could've told me." Noticing the frown on my face, Kieran's smile slowly vanished as he moved closer to me. “I'm sorry…” he started and my head snapped to him. What was he sorry for? "I should've been more careful…" “What are you talking about?" I asked, lifting his chin to look at me. “It's okay if you're not ready to have a baby yet…I should've asked…” Without letting him complete his words, I kissed his lips and I felt his body stiffened. Pulling away, I care
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. "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
Chapter 139Allie's POV The last few weeks have been the best weeks of my life and it wasn't an exaggeration. 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
Chapter 138 Kaia's POV My heart was racing about what the witch was going to say, if the attack was the harm that was supposed to happen or if we should be preparing for it. Kieran assured me that it was going to be fine…and I believed him until we ran into his mom. Talk about being persistent. "You can leave, it's Kaia I want to see." 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
