Kiara's POV. I found a simple suitable dress for the evening and quickly changed into it. Glancing over the mirror at the far end of the room, I smiled to myself. The long gown wasn't so tight, but it complimented the tiny curves that I never knew I had. Somehow, I was really beginning to see myself in a new light since I left my pack. The door suddenly flung open cutting through my chain of thoughts, it was Hyde. He was clad in his usual all black outfit, although that never made him one bit less attractive. His gaze lingered on me for a second, suddenly at my thigh area which was exposed by the little slit on the dress. "Sha.. shall we go?" I stuttered, in a bid to tear off the awkward silence. He nodded curtly, surprisingly stretching forth his hand towards me.Okay? What is he doing?"C'mon Kiara, we are gonna be late." He mumbled, his hand still stretched out. It then occured to me what was going on. He wanted me to place my hands on his. Why does he always do that tho

Kiara's POV. I released the heavy breath I never knew I was holding up until we were outside of the elder's chamber."Well, that went just like I had expected." Hyde muttered behind me.I snapped my head swiftly to face him. "You knew this was going to happen?" He nodded with a small smirk. "I'm always many steps ahead of them." The level of confidence this man possesses is enviable. He really is a one man soldier like the rumors have it. "You we'rent supposed to witness that, it must have turned your stomach, my apologies." He suddenly blurted. Okay, that's really nice of him to consider my feelings, even when he should be the one hurt from all the accusations. Hold on! Did I just say accusations?Am I really beginning to make excuses for this man? Back in my pack when I never dreamt of ever ending up married to him, I believed all the rumors spread about him, but I can't say the same now, I was beginning to have a second thoughts about the rumors now. "The evening is ruined

Kiara's POV."Whatever, now turn around, I want to take off my clothes," I said and a creepy smirk broke out on his face."What if I don't want to be responsible?" He said."Hyde, please, turn the hell around!" I gritted in frustration and he chuckled under his breath."Fine," he nodded, raising his hands in surrender, and turned around.I quickly stripped off my clothes leaving only my underwear and turned around.My eyes flew wide open in horror as I sighted him facing me with his eyes wide open staring at me."How dare you!" I yelled, glaring hard at him."I caught you staring." I"That's because I let you," he winked.Oh, this man. I'm supposed to be scared of you, why am I feeling different now?I could feel his gaze piercing into my skin as I walked towards the river brink, dipping my legs on the water and lowered myself on the edge. The feeling of the cold water against my skin was absolutely awesome, it sent a relaxing sensation through my body. My eyes squeezed shut, totall

Kiara's POV."I didn't mean to say that." I quickly apologized as I realized the gravity of my words. Surprisingly, he chuckled lightly, shaking his head amusedly. "You don't have to apologize, it actually sounded a lot different having someone say it to my face than hearing it behind the faceless rumors."I stared blankly at him without saying a word, although I had a question running through my head, threatening to burst through my mouth. "Spit it out Kiara, I'm all ears." His next words sounded like an active bomb explosion over my ear. He can read my thought now or what?He really acts so strange sometimes. "Uhm.. please don't take this the wrong way, but all my life, I've heard the rumors.. The demon king.. is.. uhm.. is it true?" I wasn't bothered about how badly I must have spelt out my sentence, I was more concerned about finally letting it out.He chuckled lightly. "It might be true." "Or it might as well just be rumors," I stared blankly at him, unable to process his e

Kiara's POV.I went to bed that night with a smile so wide that my cheeks ached. The warmth of Hyde’s lips on my cheek lingered like a sweet memory refusing to fade. I replayed the moment over and over again, feeling a strange sense of excitement that was entirely new to me. Sleep came easily, and for the first time in a long while, I didn’t feel the weight of loneliness pressing down on me.** I woke up the next morning with an energy I hadn’t felt before. Unlike other mornings where I would wake up feeling disappointed that Hyde was nowhere beside me, today was different. He wasn’t there, but it didn’t sting as much. Instead, I felt a smile stretch across my face as I stretched my arms lazily, feeling unusually refreshed.Humming to myself, I went through my usual morning routine, taking extra care with my appearance. The excitement bubbling inside me made me feel like I was glowing from within. As I brushed my hair, I allowed my thoughts to drift back to last night. The way Hyde h

Kiara's POV.I sat by the garden, my fingers lightly tracing the edge of the stone bench beneath me. The rising sun was warm against my skin, but there was an odd chill inside me that nothing could quite banish. Lady Isabella's words kept echoing in my mind, haunting me with their implications. Every time I thought I had a handle on the situation, her smile, so cold and knowing, would creep back into my thoughts.Did they really see me as some pawn to be used in their game? It made my stomach twist uncomfortably. I wasn’t some fragile, naive girl. I wasn’t a simple tool to be manipulated, because I don't have a wolf doesn't mean I'm that weak, and I really don't think they know that I'm wolfless, why then do they think me this naive? My mind raced with those thoughts, the feeling of unease gnawing at me.I let out a sigh, pushing the thoughts aside. I didn’t need this. I needed a little peace from the haunting thoughts.

The morning at the crescent Star pack on this day was all about the community work, usually done once every month.Repairs to the old wall that separated the pack's territory from the others beyond, strengthening the borders, and preparing for the changing seasons. It was meant to be a demonstration of unity, though few actually saw it that way. Hyde’s arrival didn’t go unnoticed. Everyone present seemed genuinely happy to see him, bowing slightly in recognition of his presence. It was what angered his brothers, his attachment with the pack members despite the rumors spread about him.

The forest swallowed Hyde whole as he pushed deeper into the woods. He didn’t care about the thorns that scraped his arms or the branches that slapped against his face. The roar inside him was louder than the rustling leaves or the wind through the treetops.He found a space... surrounded by crooked trees and stopped. His chest heaved, his breath ragged with rage. Without hesitation, he turned toward the nearest tree and slammed his fist into its trunk. The bark bit into his knuckles, splitting the skin, but he didn’t stop. Another punch. And another.“Damn it!” he growled, each word guttural, shaking through clenched teeth.The bark tore, and blood was beginning to coat his fist, but Hyde barely felt it. Pain was welcome it made sense. It had rules. Unlike Alonzo’s twisted schemes. Unlike the burning anger that clawed at his insides because he’d had to walk away when everything in him screamed to destroy his brother.He leaned forward, his palms flat against the tree, breathing hard.

Hyde fumed with anger and frustration as he stormed through the hallways of the quarters. The building was familiar, holding the memories of far too many nights spent in the same disarrayed state... fueled by anger, by tension, or even crave for pleasure. It was his last resort; it was where men like him went when the world weighed too heavily on their shoulders and needed a night of pleasure and ecstasy.The last time he had walked these halls, it had been under vastly different circumstances, with a sense of triumph and freedom that came knowing he wouldn't be back. Because he was getting married and the last thing he wanted was to cause her pain by cheating with his other mistresses. But it seemed that was too much sacrifice for her. Tonight, he was ready to feed his beast, it's been a long while anyway. And what better way to do that than with Valerie? the woman who had once held a place in his life... who had once known the touch of his lips, his hands, and the dark corners

Kiara's POV.The bed was empty when I reached out.Hyde wasn’t there.I blinked against the early morning light filtering through the curtains.I sat up slowly, the draw of sleep still in my eyes. The room felt too quiet without him in it. I glanced toward the door, hoping maybe he’d just stepped out for water... or something. But no. He was gone.Again.I sighed, dragging myself out of bed, and headed into the bathroom, starting the bath without much thought. The steam was warm against my skin offering relaxation, but my mind was already pacing like a restless animal.Where had he gone?After last night… I didn’t expect him to vanish like that. Not without a word.I sank into the tub and tried to push the unease out of my lungs. He needed space, I told myself. That was who he was. But still. The way he’d looked at me..touched me. That hadn’t felt like something you walked away from without a trace.When I got out, the maids had already arrived. I must’ve been in the bath longer than

Kiara's POV. I was already half asleep when I heard the room door creak open.At first, I didn’t move. Just laid there, covered in the sheets. then I stirred slightly to check who it was, and my breath caught in my throat.Hyde.Something in the way the atmosphere in the room moved when he entered. I sat up slowly, pushing the covers off. The room was a bit dark, but I could still make out his face. I slowly sat up, my gaze fixed on him. He didn’t say anything. Just stood there my heart skipped a beat when I sighted blood crusting over his knuckles like dried paint.“Hyde,” I breathed.He didn’t even look up. His shoulders were rigid, his coat hung open, and his hands… gods, his hands.I didn’t ask right away. I didn’t say anything else. I just turned, walked into the bathroom, and ran the water.I found one of the smaller towels, soaked it through, wrung it out, and came back.He still hadn’t moved.“You’re dripping on the floor,” I murmured, gently.That got his attention.He f
