Chapter 18KAIHe walked away from me but he hadn't gone far when she yelled from afar, running towards where was.“Stay away from him!” Evanna.She looked injured, her face had blood dripping down her forehead and I couldn't help but feel relief with her presence. She knelt in front of me, helping me up but when she noticed my shallow breathing, she checked her pockets, brought out some medicine and pushed some of the tablets in my mouth, muttering something about her knowing something like this was going to happen. She then pushed me behind her and stood with her dagger raised, facing Erys who had turned around to face us.Erys arched a brow, his expression almost lazy, like he was bored but at the same time interested in who Evanna was and why she had come in between us.I coughed a bit, still testing my strength to speak but no words came out. It was as though I had exhausted all the strength I had left. I wanted to tell him off or tell Evanna to run. He wasn't going to hurt m
Chapter 17KAI“Y-you.” I stammered and he stretched out his hands beside him. “Well… Aren't you happy to see me? For the third time?” he said and a shiver ran down my spin, my mind flashing back to what he had told me the last time.If he caught me crossing his path, one last time, I would be as good as dead.My chest tightened the second his smirk spread when he said that I had realised what his sentence meant.I just stood there staring at him as he did with me too till he got off the tree and I knew I had to get out of here and fast. My instincts screamed at me to run, so I did.I spun on my heel and bolted.Branches snapped against my arms as I pushed past them, my lungs burning already. I didn’t care which direction I went, I just knew I had to get far away from him. Till I got to a dead end and I had to pause to take a breather.I fell to my knees, grabbing my chest as I struggled to breathe.Just as I had finally caught my breath, shoes came in my line of vision and I froze.
Chapter 16KAI“Get away from her!” I yelled, fists clenched, trying to sound braver than I felt.My hands shook but I fisted them, looking at them head on.The witches turned their heads slowly and their eyes landed on me. They tilted their heads and then turned to look at Daisy before looking back at me and as if they had it all planned, they burst into laughter at the same time.I frowned, confused at what they found funny, my eyes finding Daisy. I had never seen her in this position before or this injured. The last time was when we were kids and she got injured during training with one of the guards for our pack but even then, it wasn't as serious as this. Daisy was already on her knees, her legs bound by thick roots that kept tightening, some roots shot out and held her hands, tightening more on the one who was already injured, making her let out a shilling scream as sweats beaded at her forehead. She bit down on her lower lip to contain the pain and a tiny drop of blood droppe
Chapter 15Daisy's POVI spotted Kai on the other end of the starting spot, surrounded by people and the measly bodyguard mum and dad assigned to him. I scoffed under my breath. He'd need all the help he could get surviving this. No one would want to let a wolf-less go free. He'd likely be the most targeted today. I turned away and thought out my own plan. I need to take out as many as I could to win or at least make a name for myself here. Being the only girl wasn't good enough a title right now.I stalked deeper into the woods, making sure that I wasn't in any danger zones. I saw a wolf or two that I could easily take out but once they spotted me, they ran. I guess they must have heard about me.I kept walking on when I suddenly paused as I heard rustling. I closed my eyes, focusing all my senses on my ears to know the direction whoever it was would come out from and just as I opened my eyes and spun around, my hands in front of my face, he was there, staring with a smirk, positio
Chapter 14KAI“What the hell happened to you? You've been sitting there quiet ever since you came in.” Evanna said, worry written all over her face. She was dabbing the cotton wool on my split lip and tending to me with care but it still stung.I sucked in a breath and let her continue to treat me but I didn't say anything. “So you're not going to talk?” she pressed on, but I didn't.I can't keep letting her fight all my battles for me even though that's what she's practically here for. “I just slammed my head against the wall. I couldn't see where I was going.” She stared at me for a second longer and I avoided her eyes. She sighed and went back to treating my cuts.I knew that she wouldn't believe me. That was a terrible lie. I didn't have a wolf but that doesn't mean I have terrible vision, plus I came back with torn books and clothes that weren't mine. That already spoke volumes of what had happened to me.I already felt terrible enough that I couldn't heal on my own since I d
Chapter 13KAI“Let me go.” I tried to get out but he froze, turned back to his minions and stared at them for a while before they burst out laughing again.Seriously, what was funny?His grip tightened the more as he faced me.“Let me go.”he mimicked me in a babyish voice and his friends started laughing stupidly again.I gritted my teeth trying to stand up for myself or at least make it seem like I could take care of myself when Evanna wasn't here. “You will regret this. Do you know my parents?” I let out and he opened his mouth in shock.“Oh no… your parents oh my goddess, your parents are going to find me and make life a living hell for me. I'm so scared, I cat even think straight, my legs are turnjbg to jelly.” he mocked the he stopped, slammed me against the door again, making it rattle that I began to fear that it would let out and I would fall, backwards in the hallways and further embarrass myself.“I don't give a bloody damn about your parents. You don't know mine either ad
