KHALID

As I took the tray from the bed, I turned back to look at her. Her back was facing me, her head bent into her hands, covering her face. A sharp, familiar ache twisted in my chest. It was pain, a constant, lurking companion that bit at me just when I thought I could forget its existence.

I still couldn’t believe I had shed tears—and more than once at that. It was ironic because emotional pain was not an emotion I was familiar with. And as I stared at the woman on the bed, I swallowed, ready to take whatever pain she had to dish out. I had caused her enough pain myself. Whatever route she chose to get her revenge could never be as evil and vile as what I had done to her.

I was beyond shocked when she ran over and kissed me. I was so confused I almost pulled away and shook her, demanding to know what she was doing. I wanted her to stay angry. I wanted her to continue to make me feel pain—to make my stomach twist with hurt, regret, and shame. That was the only way I could ever forg

  • HOW TO KILL THE OMEGA LUNA   Chapter 90

    MIAAt the sound of the gunshot, I froze, paralyzed. In an instant, Khalid bent me low to the ground and covered me with his body. I trembled in his hold, my eyes fixed on the pavement. What could that be? Had they somehow found us already? “K-Khalid,” I said nervously, trying to get up. But Khalid stopped me, covering me even more. I couldn’t see what was happening, and the lack of vision made my panic worse. “K-Kha—”“It’s okay, Mia,” he said, his voice surprisingly calm. Wait. Was he just lying here to shield me from bullets? Or was there something else going on? Soon, I heard footsteps coming towards us. “Khalid, I’m fine, really. You don’t have to—”“Shut up,” Khalid said sharply, sounding annoyed.My heart skipped a beat at his tone, and a surge of my own irritation grew. I pushed away from his body before he could react and stood up. “M-Mia,” he cursed under his breath as I stood. But I didn’t care any longer. Standing in front of us was a man who looked in his early

    KHALIDI held Mia firmly as we ran—ran with no clear direction in mind. It was dark, but the city was alive, its lights watching us like silent eyes as we turned corner after corner to escape our chasers.Mia was panting, but not as hard as I expected. She was in good shape, and I was grateful for that. She hadn’t pulled me down or stopped to look back even once. She understood the danger and didn’t want to make things harder.Earlier, when I first entered the room, I’d managed to loosen the barricade from the window. I hadn’t thought it would be useful; I really didn’t expect anyone to come after me at the motel. But I believed it wouldn’t hurt to set up a precaution. My plan was simple: if they burst the room door, I would jump out the window. Still, I was surprised it worked out so well.Some of the chasers had followed us out the window, shouting loud as they pursued. But we were too fast and durable thanks to our wolf parts, so their chase died out at some point.As we ran, we pa

    DILANAnother news segment began to play on the TV, but my eyes remained fixed on the screen, still seeing Khalid’s image on the monitor. I’d known all along that he was probably in the human world, but the confirmation was still a shock.‘If only I still had Mia in my possession,’ my heart broke at the thought.I wondered where Mia was. I wondered where she’d run off to and if she was safe. I wondered if Eva had accidentally let her flee like she claimed—or if she’d let Mia go on purpose to spite me. I had a strong feeling Eva had let her go. Perhaps it was only after Mia had left that Eva realized what she’d done. If I found out that was what happened… I could really kill someone.“Boss,” Victor’s voice broke through my thoughts.I turned to him. He was a lot more serious now, and there was an unmistakable fear in his eyes. A smile crept up inside me, and I let it show for a moment. Victor feared Khalid. He was terrified that Khalid was in the human world and that their paths would

    DILANVictor and I ended up at a bar not too far from my house. Night was approaching, but the place wasn’t crowded. I appreciated the scantiness; it was the only good thing about today. I couldn’t count how many times Victor had begged me to go home, but I said no. I didn’t want to carry any of this business there. Kira and Mel could overhear. And beyond that, I didn’t want Victor at my house for more personal reasons.Cool music played in the background, but it still sounded loud in my ears. Every single thing irritated me.Victor took long pulls from his canned beer, staring at his phone. I had a feeling he wasn’t actually doing anything—just avoiding a conversation.My fists balled as a memory crossed my mind. After I broke the restaurant table, the manager approached us, demanding answers. I didn’t give him any; Victor did. For reasons I’ll never understand, he told them I had some kind of anger disorder, as if no other explanation would work. He claimed something triggered me an

    MIAMy hands were still on my chest, my breath coming in ragged gasps. I had barely found the words to explain what was happening—that he was a fugitive wanted for murder, that the police were probably on their way. He looked at me, a blank expression in his eyes, until the words finally sank in.He moved toward the door, then turned around, his gaze locking with mine. He reached for my hands. A part of me, a part that had longed for his touch for weeks, wanted to take them. But my body acted on its own. It stepped backward, away from him, a primal fear seizing me.His eyes, once so full of questions, now bore a desperate, confused plea. My heart ached at the sight, but the ache was overshadowed by the terrifying reality of what I had seen on the screen. The chaos that plagued our world had followed him even here. He had dragged the violence of the pack into the human world.I looked at his outstretched hands. I looked at the open door—a doorway to a life on the run. The life I had wi

    KHALIDRex was raging — punching inside my head and screaming in anger. He wanted me to go after Mia. But I couldn’t.“I’ll kill you myself if you let her go again, Khalid,” he growled, just as I crashed to the floor and rested my head against the wall.“I didn’t let her go… she left on her own,” I replied.“It doesn’t matter, Khalid!” Rex cut in. “Just go after her. You thought about all those dreams we could have together. None of that will happen if you don’t fight for it.”“You won’t get it, Rex!” I fired back, holding my head in my hands. My chest heaved; my body shook.‘She was going to come back. She was going to come back,’ I tried to convince myself.“She wouldn’t. And you know it.”“She would, Rex! She’ll come back! Fuck!” I stood and slammed my fist into the wall. The pain didn’t register; I collapsed back down.Why was I so restless? Why couldn’t I control myself and my thoughts? Where had my discipline gone?“You’re just going to let her go back to Dilan?” Rex asked.My h
