KIERAN'S POV:Pearl has really changed, she made my day today. We caught up on all we have missed in each other's lives.I kinda like her company. When I heard that Mabel's father was dead, I felt bad for her.Hardin, Scott and Pearl followed me to the funeral.When we got there, there were not that many people. When I was going in with Pearl, Alvina said something that almost made me slap her.“If you talk to Pearl in this manner again, I will forget that you are my sister and I will deal with you". I warned her before going in."Did my brother just say that to me?”. I heard Alvina ask herself but I didn't spare another glance.I was looking around for Jade, I could perceive her scent but I couldn't see her.I saw her come out from the corner with a smile. She was walking towards me, I was also happy that she wasn't angry anymore, so I prepared to hug her but I was surprised when she walked past me and hugged Raymond who just arrived.I gritted my teeth at Jade's behavior.“I thought
JADE’S POV:“Mabel is awake now, what are we gonna do?". Jake asked as he came out of Mabel's room."She has to prepare for her father's burial. And this is the time she needs us the most, we need to be there for her”. I replied to him."After the funeral, I would like to take her on a vacation, where she would be away from all the bad memories here". Jake suggested "I was just about to say the same thing. I hope the hunters honor our invitation”."Definitely, they will. I am sure of that, even if the head doesn't come, he will surely send Pearl to come”. Jake replied and I nodded.Just then, we both heard a knock on the door.“Are you expecting someone?". Jake asked and I shook my head.“Then who could it be?". I shrugged my shoulders at him.“Let's find out". I said and then walked towards the door to open it.“Jade, we finally found you". “Alvina? Bryan? What are you two doing here? How did you even find me?". I asked Bryan and Alvina as I ushered them in.“Well, it's all thanks
ALVINA'S POV:“What the hell is my brother thinking? He has definitely gone insane to accept that woman again”. I vented my anger as we left my brother's villa". “Kieran has become an asshole. He is definitely not acting like the almighty Kieran anymore". Hardin added.“What should we do now? Because Pearl definitely has an ulterior motive”. Scott asked.“Kieran isn't even listening to any of us. Bryan, you haven't said anything". I nudged Bryan who haven't said a single word since I started the discussion “Well, I haven't said anything because, what I have in mind to say might make all of you angry, so I prefer to keep my opinion to myself”. Bryan replied."We want to hear it, right guys?”. I asked Hardin and Scott and they nodded."Don't get mad when I air my opinion. I support Kieran”. He replied ."You are joking right?”. I asked Bryan."Kieran is not dumb, neither is he stupid or insane. I still believe that Kieran is the one using Pearl, not Pearl using him”. “How can it be s
PEARL'S POV:I didn't know that Kieran would still be willing to forgive me even after what happened years ago.After I got into the house. Jade was being so hostile but I didn't care. I am here to achieve two goals and I wouldn't want her to be the obstacle in my way.Everyone left the house except Jade and I.I saw a tall figure appear at the entrance of the house and without knocking he got in.I suspected something was going on. He came out almost immediately he got in. I saw the two of them disappear. I stood at the particular spot that they disappeared and disappeared as well.I wanted to know what Jade was up to. This seems to be Richard's home. What could Jade and that unknown figure doing here?I watched with my wolf’s eyes to know what they were doing.I saw someone being covered in a white fabric. “Richard?".I saw Richard when Jade removed the fabric. Is he dead? I took a closer look as Jade bled her wrist.So this is how it's done. I watched as Jade's blood dropped
JAKE'S POV:“Jake!". Mabel hugged me tightly as she saw me come to pick her and her father.I smiled and hugged her back. “Sorry that I am late". I said to her and she hugged me again.“Son, thank you". Mr Richard said as he walked closer.“Enough of the emotional display, let me take you both home". I opened the door of the car and Mabel and her father got in while I drove away.“Why did Lucian release us all of a sudden?". Mabel asked.I didn't want to tell Mabel and her father that I took an oath in order to bail them out.They will surely blame themselves and feel sorry for me.“We will discuss that later. You both need to go home and get some rest". "Jake, I hope you haven't done anything crazy just to bail us out? I don't want to be your future punching bag anymore”. I chuckled at Mabel’s words."Mabel, let him be. He said we can discuss that later, so stop pestering him”. Mr Richard said from the back seat."Alright, we are home". I said as I packed beside Mr Richard’s home.
KIERAN'S POV:I don't know what the heck is wrong with Jade. Why does she always think that dying is the only solution to problems Doesn't she ever think about how I will feel if she dies? Years back, I lived like a vegetable because of Pearl. And finally I am out of the trauma, she wants me to go back to being in that state again?As I walked out angrily from the castle, I shifted into my wolf and ran deep inside the woods. I was looking for something or someone to vent my anger on. I saw a familiar figure as I was running and I slowed down.I came closer to take a look and I saw that it was Pearl. She was in agony.I ran to her to know what was wrong.“Pearl?". I called out to her.“Kieran please don't come any closer, there is a trap there". I stopped in my footsteps as she told me.“What happened to you?”. I asked."I saw a little girl crying uncontrollably here. I asked her what she was doing in the woods all by herself. She said she was taken away by men on black hooded cloa
