Lisa's POVKira appears in front of my cell, her face grim. She doesn't bother to shut the door. "Vadagasuli."She's alone, which is rather unusual.Where's Luke? I need to see him. " I demandShe pulls out a bunch of keys from her back pocket. "I do not care about him right now. You are my only concern."What is your grand plan? Are you here to kill me? ""Quite the opposite. I'm taking you somewhere else till this commotion settles. " She inserts the key into the lock and watches as the door swings open. I rush towards her and drive the dagger into her stomach. I know I didn't hit anything vital, but the satisfying feeling of the blade inside her is enough for me. She curses at me, her mouth pressed into a thin line as blood gushes from her body over my hand. She's about to raise her hand to strike me when she arches her back as someone stabs her from behind, Kayden's face appearing from behind her. His face was filled with anger as he retracted the blade and stabbed her again.Kayd
Kayden's POVA bullet whizzed past my head as my back slammed into the stones. That was close. I would have been a dead man by now.I let out a rough breath. "Thanks, man.""You owe me for this." Jonas smiled at me before turning his focus to the man who had pressed the trigger, charging toward him.The room itself is in chaos. The Epsilon soldiers and our wolves are mostly on one side of the room, while the other side is occupied by Kira's Colony. Kira, Isabel, and Annabelle are across the room. I couldn't let them escape.I fired a bullet into the head of the nearest demigod heading towards Kira, ducking and repeating the process as many times as I could. I turn back for a brief moment to see Lisa and my brother, who has shifted already, working together to repel the attacks of the demigods surrounding them. More soldiers rush into the room and a couple of them head my way. I fire both my guns at a couple of soldiers until my ammo is exhausted. Before I had the chance to reload, two
Kayden's POV"Do you think we did something wrong by trying to find a home, General Alex?" Hands handcuffed together to the metal table in front of her, Kira sits up, her eyes searching for Alex's face as she speaks in Greek.Alex leans against the wall of the interrogation room, his arms crossed on his chest. His face is drawn tight. There is no trace of his usual playful self. "Back in the days of old, when the Council took over the United States, It was decided that it would be the only home for people of our kind, so we could all live together under one government, and the moon god approved of it.The royal twins were present in the room, both silent with the same tense expression on their faces. Genevieve stands close to Antoine, translating every word spoken in Gregorian for them. Apart from Luke, she's the only person proficient enough in French in my order. Blake stands to the side, his eyes never leaving the prisoners, wary that they might have one last trick up their sleeve.
Lisa's POVKayden knocks on my door, and I stand up from the bed, smoothing my dress as I walk towards the door to open it. The sight of him standing in the doorway steals my breath away. His hair is well styled tonight, and I've come to love the beard he's been growing. He could never shave that off. He's dressed in a black suit with a blue tie to match the color of his eyes.He bows slightly and holds out his hand, and I place mine in his. He pulls my hand towards his lips, pressing a kiss there. When he raises his head, his eyes are dark."I love you, Lisa Kane." He says, his voice low. "I don't think I'll ever stop loving you." He pulls me against him, his hand pressing into my lower back as he kisses me lightly on the forehead. I shudder from the tenderness of his actions.A smile makes its way to his lips as he pulls away. "What do you think about getting married to me tonight?""Your offer is very tempting, Kayden Blackwater." I rested my head against his chest. But you know, I
LISA'S POVI woke up with a jolt, screaming. My heart was racing, and beads of sweat collected on my brows and trickled down my face. I clutched my chest, gasping for breath as I tried to calm down. I just had another nightmare, my second of the night. Some nights were worse than this. I brushed my hair back and tied it up in a bun as I tried to reminisce the events that has happened in my nightmare, I remembered the home where I had to flee, the home where I had been saved until the rogue wolves attacked my pack, where I had lived happily for a long while until my family was killed in the brutal attack that nobody had seen coming.I laid my head back down onto the hard mattress if it could even be termed as that. I tried to close my eyes but the horrors I experienced were still fresh in my memory, I was afraid of the nightmares that would come back once my eyes were shut. But that didn't stop me from returning to the past I
LISA'S POVI'm going to die tomorrow.There was no doubt about that. It was clear as the sky on a bright summer afternoon.Tomorrow is the day I clock twenty-one. The day I become an expired werewolf who had failed to find a mate.I know most people cry the day they are born but I was different. I was an odd child right from birth. I refused to cry initially till my bottom was spanked repeatedly, my tears brought delight to everyone around except me. I was as if I had a premonition that I was already doomed and here I was nearly two decades later about to prove my younger self-right.I received a letter from Elena I had lost count of how many she had sent. It was as if she knew I tore them at sight but here I was back in my apartment after reading the contents of her last letter. She profusely apologized for her selfish actions and begged for forgiveness. Nevertheless, it was
LISA'S POVI remembered my aunt, Evelyn shouting at me. "Run and don't look back. Take your sister and protect her with your life. And whatever you do, don't let them know you're the daughters of the Alpha. If you do, they would kill you without hesitation. Now, go!"I had just completed my sixth decade on earth, and it had been a wonderful day of celebrating my mother's birthday. The party had been spectacular, it was only befitting for someone of her status as everyone in their pack had come to honor their Luna. There were several other guests from other packs who were allies. The crowd was massive and they partied late into the evening. It was late into the night and the party was beginning to dwindle down as most of their guests had already taken their leave. I decided to help my aunt, Evelyn clean the kitchen which was in a messy state. Evelyn was my favorite aunt and she was an Omega who worked for her
LISA'S POVI could still remember how cold it had gotten in that cell, and how it felt like torture every day I spent there with only a few scraps of food from time to time. My sister had fallen sick and had died from pneumonia, I could still remember my cries for help but none was given. I had wished the man would act on his promise and kill me after he wiped out every wolf with affiliation to my pack like he had earlier suggested but something made him change his mind. I thought about when the Alpha finally came to me, his aura was so strong, it rolled off him like heat waves as he opened the door to my cell. I could tell he was a powerful wolf with a strong and large pack at his beck and call.He stared at me for a while before speaking. Due to my position as the daughter of an Alpha, I could easily have held a staring contest with him for a while, trying to fight his commanding presence but I was afraid to. Evel
