Se connecterKlaus POV That night, after leaving the High Priest's quarters, I headed straight for the pack mansion.The cold evening air brushed against my face, but I barely felt it. My mind was too full. Every answer I had gotten tonight had only created ten more questions.By the time I reached the front door, I still wasn't sure what I was going to say.The servants greeted me with surprised smiles as I walked inside. I gave them a small nod before making my way toward the living room."Mom?"A second later, my mother stepped out from the dining room.The moment she saw me, her eyes widened."Klaus?" she asked with a surprised smile. "I didn't know you were coming tonight."She walked over and pulled me into a warm hug before taking a step back to study my face."Is everything alright? Did something happen? Are the elders having an emergency meeting that I don't know about?"I forced a small smile."No, Mom. Everything's fine."She frowned."Then why are you here?""I just wanted to see you.
Klaus POVToday, I made up my mind that I was going to spend as much time with Mira as I could.She kept telling everyone she was fine, but I knew better.Mira had this habit of carrying every burden by herself. Even when she was hurting, she would smile and tell everyone not to worry. She hated making the people she loved feel sad because of her problems. It was something I admired about her, but it also drove me crazy.She was strong.Too strong.Sometimes I wished she would lean on me instead of pretending everything was okay.She wasn't alone anymore.She had me.Whether she liked it or not, I was going to help her carry whatever she was fighting.After classes ended, I should have gone straight to the library. Professor Hopkins had warned us three times that tomorrow's test would be brutal, and judging from his smile, I believed him. Normally, I never skipped studying before one of his exams.But today, books could wait.Mira couldn't.She was my fiancée, and nothing was more imp
MiraI froze, my feet refusing to move any farther."Please, Mira, don't walk away," he pleaded, desperation creeping into his voice. "I'm not trying to deceive you or play some cruel joke. I respect you far too much to ever do that."I kept my back to him, saying nothing."Please," he continued. "Just trust me. I swear I'm only trying to help because... because I consider you a friend."A friend?I snorted inwardly.Sky, I called to my wolf. What do you think? Should I walk away... or hear him out?Walk away, Sky answered without a second's hesitation. I'm telling you, Mira. I don't trust a single word that comes out of his mouth.I let out a long, weary sigh. Against my better judgment, I turned and walked toward him."This better be worth my time," I muttered.Seriously? Sky groaned dramatically, rolling her eyes inside my mind. Why do you even bother asking for my opinion when you never listen to it?Because your opinions are always biased, I shot back.Sky let out an offended his
MiraWhen I got back to my dorm that night, Tina was already fast asleep.Honestly, I had never been so happy to see someone sleeping.I quietly closed the door behind me and let out a long breath. If Tina had still been awake, I knew exactly what would have happened. She would've crossed her arms, narrowed her eyes, and started asking a hundred questions.Where had I been?Why was I coming back so late?Who was I with?And knowing Tina, she wouldn't have stopped until I told her everything.The problem was, I wasn't ready to tell anyone.Not after everything I had learned tonight.Not after finding out who I really was.I was too tired to think.Too tired to cry.I just wanted my bed.You know she's going to question you tomorrow. Don't think you've escaped, Sky said inside my head."I know," I whispered as I kicked off my shoes. "But tomorrow can deal with itself. Right now, I just want to sleep."I had barely fallen onto my bed when my phone buzzed.I reached for it.Kevin.Another
Mira POV"Where do I find the witch?" I asked, my voice shaking.Grandma Lori looked at me with sad eyes before letting out a slow breath."I think the answer is with your adoptive parents," she said gently. "I'm guessing Maria is your mother."My head snapped up."How do you know my mom?"A faint smile crossed her face."Because Maria served Luna Katherine. She wasn't just another maid. She was your mother's most trusted handmaid. She loved your mother dearly, and your mother trusted her with her own life. That's why, on the night your pack fell, she handed you to Maria."My chest tightened.Images of my mother rushed into my mind.Not Luna Katherine.Maria."My mom died giving birth to me," I said quietly.Grandma Lori looked at me for a long moment. Then she slowly shook her head."Is that what they told you?"I frowned."Yes."A sad smile touched her lips."I'm sorry, child... but that isn't true."My heart skipped."You weren't a newborn when Maria left with you."She paused, her
Mira"What did you just say?" I asked, staring at her in complete confusion. "The offspring of who?"Grandma Lori looked at me with gentle eyes."Your father was Alpha Roman," she said softly. "And your mother was Luna Katherine. They ruled one of the strongest wolf packs of their time."For a moment, I forgot how to breathe.My hands began to shake."No..."My voice came out as little more than a whisper."No... that can't be right."Almost without thinking, I reached into my pocket and pulled out my phone.My fingers trembled as I opened the picture Klaus had taken inside the hidden chamber beneath the abandoned shrine.I turned the screen toward her.The portrait filled the display.A tall Alpha.A beautiful Luna.A little girl smiling between them.My heart pounded so hard it hurt."Are..." I swallowed hard. "Are these the people you're talking about?"The old woman looked at the picture for only a second before nodding."Yes."Her voice was filled with sadness."That is Alpha Rom
POV: MiraI did not sleep.Not even a little.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Klaus leaning close to me. Smirking. Teasing. Acting like he owned the air I breathe.I sat up in bed with a groan.“Stop thinking about him,” I muttered to myself.I rolled my eyes, took a shower, and got dressed.I c
Mira POV The walk back to my dorm felt longer than usual—not because it was far, but because I could still feel invisible eyes on me. The campus was quiet, washed in soft gold light, pretending nothing dramatic had happened. I kept my head down and hugged my bag to my chest.Chloe had floated off
Mira After Tina finished lecturing me about how I was making the worst mistake of my life by getting involved with Klaus, I felt like my ears were ringing.She didn’t yell.That was the scary part.Tina only got quiet when she was truly serious.“Klaus isn’t someone you play with,” she had said. “
Mira POV Bella and Kevin were walking toward us. Holding hands. Calm, powerful, untouchable.Glory froze, anger draining from her face, replaced by shock.Leave her alone!” Kevin barked, his voice cutting through the hallway.Glory froze for a second, then stuttered. “B-But Alpha Kevin… she’s not
