Yara's POV.The fear that gripped me when Kylie pulled the scarf away from my neck sent electrifying jolts down my body. The pain in his eyes when he looked at Mauris and Oma, realizing what had just happened. Things went sideways in a jiffy. Kylie released his wolf for the first time since I had arrived at the house."Somebody stop him, he is going to kill him!" Oma screamed but no one moved, no one tried to stop Kylie and it was already too late. Kylie's claws dug into Mauris chest making him scream out loud. I screamed and jumped away from my seat as they rolled towards my direction, Mauris struggled to lift Kylie's paws away from his body but his wolf was indeed large and looked intimidating enough to ward off his enemies."Stand down!" Alpha Theon said sharply, his authoritative voice echoing in the room, it looked like he was talking to Oma. The council members seemed unfazed, they didn't even lift a finger they just sat still watching the fight like they were enjoying the show
Kylie's POV.The council meeting would have been the perfect opportunity to assert my dominance and prove to everyone that I was the true leader of our pack but then Mauris, Yara and even Oma had betrayed me. It stung to know that Oma would do something like that, she had always been loyal to me no matter what. I stepped out of the elevator, my fists clenched, and my body shaking with anger and disbelief. I couldn't believe what I had just heard and seen. Mauris, my best friend, had marked Yara, the woman I had gone through hell to find, it took me so long to get everything into place and she was soon to become my Luna. How could Mauris do this to me, his brother?I stormed out of the building, pushing people out of my way, I ignored all the greetings and simply shoved my secretary aside when she stepped in front of me. She knew better than to follow me. I needed to get out of there, away from the people who had just betrayed me. I needed to clear my head, to get away from the emoti
Maggie's POV.I was upstairs in my room when I heard the gates buzz open. Mauris car sped into the house. I couldn't see the garage from my room neither could I get a glimpse of who was driving, I left my room immediately and hurried downstairs to find out how the council meeting had gone. The pack doctor, Simon hurried past me, when he recognized that I was the one he went past, he turned around and bowed his head slightly in greetings."Pardon me, I was lost in thought." He apologized."Maybe you thought I was a maid or just didn't see me." I said pouting my lips."How could I possibly think that a maid would be dressed so elaborately." He paused looking me over, I have always know that Simon had the hots for me but didn't want to make a move, afraid of loosing his cherished job in the house. "Please excuse, I have a patient to attend to." He said."Who?" I asked, I didn't know about anyone being ill. It definitely wasn't any of my friends or family because I had seen them all this
Mauris POV.The pain that shot up my body when Kylie dug his fingers into my chest, weakened my entire body at that time, I knew I had lost the battle and felt awful for betraying my friend and dragging Oma and Maggie into this but I didn't regret anything I had done or shared with Yara, she is just too precious to regret.Her presence in the room, gave me the courage I needed to confront Kylie, when she jumped in between us, I had never felt an urge as powerful as the one that enveloped me then, the urge to protect her.I knew my father had tried to trick me into agreeing with him on selling off the agricultural produce or risk exposing my secret to Kylie. The fact that I didn't side with him, made him not interfere in the fight, not like I was expecting his help anyways.When I lost, I felt sad not because of anything else but because I had not been true to myself and to Kylie, he didn't deserve this, he had been talking about taking his throne ever since we first met. Now, I had de
Kylie's POV.I drove the car back to the house, packed in the garage but didn't want to step down from the car. I waited there listening to the silence of the garage when I saw Oma step into the garage, she hurried towards her car, where is she going? I thought. I didn't call out to her, I just sat there watching her and my next move was to follow her. When she pulled out of the garage in her car, I waited for a few minutes then I followed her but kept my distance to avoid her spoting me behind her.She drove all the way back to the headquarters, I saw her conversing with my secretary, I just sat in the car watching her. The secretary called to someone in the far off side of the hall and the driver from earlier ran up to them. He was explaining something to her and gesticulating wildly, then I realized that Oma wasn't up to anything, she was looking for me.She must have been told that I took the car and left because she walked out of the building, her shoulders slumped and her expres
Maggie's POV.When Oma left to look for Kylie, I headed towards her room to check on Mauris and I was expecting to find her there but she wasn't there. Mauris was unconscious and someone else was with him in the room. When I got closer, I found out that the doctor dressing Mauris wound is Simon, he is the personal doctor that is supposed to attend to only the Alpha. I used to play around with him then when I was still interested in Mauris but wouldn't let him touch me. I always drove him to the brink of madness before cutting him off bluntly."Hey!" I said, walking up to him. "Where is Yara?""She left to get him something to eat." He replied, he didn't want to look at me because he still likes and he is afraid that I would catch onto it once again but I have always known that he liked me."So how is he?" I asked, walking up to the bed, Mauris eyes were closed and the bandage on his chest proves that wound must have been a bit fatal."He would be alright, he just needs some time to re
Kylie's POV."Kylie!" Maggie cried out angrily when the doctor's head hit the wall, she struggled to get up from the bed, "What is wrong with you?" She looked me in the eye, glaring at me."You Whore!" I cursed at her. I regretted saying those words immediately I said it. She turned around to look at me, Maggie hated words like that and it must have hurt her that I would use words like that on her but I just couldn't control myself, I was angry at everyone and at everything. Even more angry at her for faking her illness.She stood up from the bed, clutching the blanket to her chest, oblivious or unconcerned about the fact that from her waist down, she is naked. She held the blanket tightly, pulling it out of the bed and onto the floor, it trailled behind her as she moved towards me quickly, before I could open my mouth to apologise for what I had said, she slapped me across my face.The doctor who had recovered and was busy poking at his jaw in pain, gasped when Maggie slapped me. I c
Oma's POV.Kylie's words hurt me more than I had expected, I wanted him to give me the permission to carry on with the mission. I wanted to be the one that would find his mate and bring her to him, I felt like a failure after the events of the day.I rushed out of the room, afraid of the tears that would rush down my face if I wanted any longer. I rushed to Yara's room, since Mauris and her were in mine, I would have to spend the night in hers to give them some privacy even though Mauris was still unconscious.I fell into her bed, my mind nagging at me for being such a failure and causing Kylie the Golden opportunity that appeared before him, the one clean shot he had at getting back his throne.I stuffed my face into my pillow, screaming out in frustration.My mind because filled with the image of Kylie's bare chest, how his large, strong arms wrapped around me when he lifted me up from my knees. His thick voice and his eyes all over me. It's been a while I had sex with anyone, other
