Chapter 54: The line in between.

Maya's POV

I thought my presence in Kylian's room would be a bliss and it would leave me dreaming more of him. No, it wasn't. Each night, I had to fight the urge to not look desperate. We were always left looking awkward each time we laid.

My legs would mistakenly hit his and we would usher ourselves into an uninterrupted hour of pointless apology. Sometimes, I would watch him sleep while I let my imagination take me far into wonderland.

This would have continued if Jennifer wasn't such a spiteful being. My new placement made her seethe in anger. She never looked me in the eyes after our room incidence but that never meant she quitted. She made a big deal out of treatment I received for being pregnant

“Who gives a shit if she's pregnant,” Jennifer complained “I was also pregnant and I wasn't laying around like an old hag,”

She didn't care if I was seated there or Kylian was breezing past. She yell at the top of her voice and most times, threatened

    Chapter 55: The past mirrors the future.Maya's POV Rex's expression quickly changed as though flustered by the question. He gaped at me in silence and thought of his response. I was already wondering if I had overstepped my boundaries but he raised his head and put his right hand into his pockets.“Of course, I do,” What a relief! I heaved a sigh and swirled my hair, bracing up to ask the next question.“No surprise there,” I replied “I'm pretty sure she was a nice person,” Rex twisted his mouth in curiosity and blinked at me. He caught on to what I needed from him and with a snicker he replied.“Yeah, she was nice.” He paused. That was the opposite of what I was expecting “Only if you were Kylian or Mrs Castle,” he said after a long wait.“What? She wasn't nice at all to you,” He shook his head and inserted his left hand into his pocket “No, she wasn't. Why would she need to?” He asked, his tone dripping with sarcasm.“I just thought she is a little off to me. I didn't know you

    Chapter 56: The answer could be bleakMaya's POV What could Rex mean when he said ‘out of the ordinary’, I wondered. From the little time I spent with him, I already knew he wasn't one to bluff or tell a lie. I read his expression; it was obvious that he hated Jennifer, all evident on his deep frown. “She changed him?” I asserted, widening my eyes.“No, but she almost did,” Rex replied.I took a deep breath and placed my hands on my waist. Jennifer's face filled my thoughts, she was starting to live rent free in my head. “Respectfully, I'd advise you to be careful. I went through hell the last time she was around,” He snapped both of his fingers and exhaled loudly “But You are different, way better than I thought you'd be,” His words sounded genuine, it felt like he had waited a long time to tell me that. He gave a faint smile and prepared to walk out, dusting his shirt and humming a tune.As he walked past me, I picked up his scent. I was still having a hard time controlling my

    Chapter 57: It's always the calm.Maya's POV She had picked a side, even though I had just come to the knowledge that it was a side of two and no one was backing me up. I was left alone to fight for myself in an unfair battle. This reminded me of a situation much similar to this, only that the previous was nice and unaware of the hell she put me through.Ha, Madeline! Was this happening all again? I could leave my home but it would never leave me. If only I felt safe with Jennifer the way I did with my sister. But of course not, Jennifer wasn't my relation. She'd love to see me suffer for the fun of it. I hissed and walked down to my room as Marianne glanced at the door, our eyes almost met but I broke it split second from impact.Kylian had just left the room but I could smell him all over the room. He was just what I needed to calm myself; absent or present, he was my escape.I couldn't keep on shifting into my wolf each time I needed time away from the palace. My wolf was part o

    Chapter 58: The time for a big shot Maya's POV She mustn't have been standing at the door all this while. She would grow old of exhaustion. Maybe she had timed that Jennifer would get thirsty, besides it felt like she was desperate to please Jennifer.Their strange relationship bothered me because it was odd and so random. Jennifer never got close to any maid in Kylian's house, let alone having a fun time with them. Why was Marianne different? She'd always serve them in smiles, expecting something back as if Jennifer was a giver. In my bid to avoid going close to Jennifer, I watched her and her son gulp down the juice while I longed to have some. Marianne took several glances at me and would itch her hair each time our eyes met. “Is that okay for you Hans,” Jennifer smiled, prompting a quick nod from him. Marianne exchanged a knowing smirk with Jennifer and exhaled loudly “I guess I better be taking them in,” she stated.“Nonsense,” Jennifer quipped, raising her hand to hold Mar

One of the maids fearfully pointed in my direction and Jennifer's. “There's a bit of an altercation,” she mumbled.Immediately, Mrs Castle ran towards Jennifer, grabbing Hans and frowning at the mud on his body “Hans.” She said “what happened here, Jennifer?” “Ask Maya, mother. She hit my baby?” Jennifer lied, pumping her chest in anger. “I did not do such a thing,” I shouted, feeling the need to explain “I was seated alone. I didn't do anything,” My eyes couldn't believe it. I wished I was trapped in a nightmare. That would have been better than unpacking this reality. I was confused, hopeless and lost. How was I going to report to the Castle that I watched Jennifer hit Hans till he cried out? This was her child who she always pampered. Nobody was going to believe me. “Shut up you heartless being,” Mrs Castle flared up, raising her finger at me. “Why did you hi

    Chapter 60: The woods or back home?Maya's POV I felt my wolf sensing my emotions through our bond, this allowed me to feel the comfort and support she tried to give. She ran as far as she could for me and hid deep in the woods. I cried to the fullest. My tears refused to stop as I drowned myself in the flashes of the scornful faces they made as I was falsely accused. None of them cared to access the situation, they all assumed the lying snake was correct. It was getting darker as the day turned into night. I couldn't be in the woods forever, I had to go back to the house that ridiculed me. I had to return for more humiliation because obviously, the maids would talk behind my back. They would whisper and laugh to themselves as I walked past them. Hopefully, Kylian would have returned from scouting his territory. He was away since morning and hadn't come back, shattering my expectations that he would return early. No wonder Jennifer acted quick and smart; she had been waiting for h

    Chapter 61: It's all in my head.Kylian's POV I wasn't ready to have Jennifer into my home. No, not with Maya around, but she flashed our son like it was a ticket to get her in. My mother wanted her back and my father loved her figure in the public's eyes but none of them knew who she truly was. I knew part of the reason was because I couldn't bring myself to tell them that their precious pick for me was nothing special at all. It was part of Jennifer's nature to be catty, so it wasn't a surprise when I gave her a place in my home and she resolved to pick enmity with Maya. I saw it on her face at the moment Maya walked in on us. She could recognize that I loved her and Jennifer strode to wreck it apart using any means necessary. It wasn't to her knowledge that using Hans as a weapon against Maya was out of hand. Anytime Jennifer could get my attention, She would do it without thinking twice. She wanted me to argue with her, talk to her and look her in the eyes, but I was over al

    Chapter 62: Here's my reply.Kylian's POV “Sick,” she whispered, looking down on her feet. “No, Alpha,” she quickly responded “Just a little tired,” She lied.I knew she wasn't tired. If she was, then her heart wouldn't be beating like I was about to place a rock on her. I hissed and continued walking, sensing her taking troubled steps away from me. “What the hell is going on with her?” I muttered, disgusted by everything. “Kylian,” my mom waved at me from her room, forcing me to wait. I tried guessing what she was about to tell me as everyday was a mystery with her. Sometimes she'd complain about herself and talk all through without actually seeking my advice and some days, she'd recount her day and point out life would be boring without her. This was going to be different. I saw it in her face, in the way she marched vehemently towards me. She was a raging storm waiting to be calmed down.“What happened this time?” I complained and sighed in frustration. I had no need to take a

We bumped straight ahead into the car, the both of us struggling to maintain our position. None of our attention were fixed on the road ahead as we struggled for our lives. My driver shut his eyes, screaming his lungs out while I glared at the black car fiercely and handled the wheel from the other end of where I was seated.We were interrupted from our intense tussle by a loud honk heading our way. I swiftly looked up front and gasped loudly at the truck coming in with full speed. The truck driver as well, had his atte

They prepared to knock us off the road because I wasn't planning on stopping. I knew giving them my attention would only slow me down and that was their main goal.I growled and banged my fists on the chair “Crap!” “Drive faster, now is not the time to be give into your fright,” I thundered, causing my driver who had been shaking like a wet cat to flinch in fear. Our speed increased and so did our enemies. Few seconds later, they began gaining on us. The two cars drove to both sides of my car and left the middle open. We were now in a forest terrain where cars rarely blew past this route. I accessed the situation and through my driver's eyes, I could sense that he consid

Jennifer frowned looking downwards at her feet as she slightly wiggled it. My father was blank with idea and my mother simply tried to crash out for putting herself in this mess if a situation.The fear of making it to the wrong airport and miss Maya by chance made my blood simmer. I was happy and relaxed around her, there was no way I was going to to let her go. Putting up a fight against her departure was the only thing I could do.“Rex,” I called out “Grab one of the tickets. You will go to the first and I will head to the second,” I commanded.I couldn't afford to lose her and my pups. I hurried out of the gathering and rushed outside. “We will stop her no matter what,” I claimed.“Kylian, wait. I want to go with you. Let me make it up for being…”“Listen Dad.

All the while, I was thinking Jennifer had a major pull in this but to figure out my father had to be petty and drive her away, they broke all the hopes I had on them. I felt isolated and trapped in my home, just set apart to live differently. A plot had been going on and it was from those closest to me.My mother's eyes were filled with regret and shock. A shock from her realization that she had underestimated the love I had for Maya and a regret that stemmed from the situation they found themselves in.“I could have let out my anger on the wrong people,” I muttered, gaping at my parents. “What good is it if I don't pursue my feelings,”“I can't have you guys messing up my life each time you appear. Stop crossing your boundaries, I have let a lot of shit slide but I am not going to take it anymore,” I thundered.“I know dear, let's make it up to you,”

Of course it was going to be the whining simp to break first.My muscles felt like they were contorting as she stepped forward to save herself. I couldn't believe a war frightened Mrs Castle so much. Wasn't she supposed to be the wife of an Alpha? How weak willed could she be. I gnashed my teeth and glared subtly at her.She was ruining my chances. I knew Kylian was about to do it anyways, but at least I knew if they engaged in a battle it would buy me time to flee faraway with some loot.Surprisingly, just a moment ago when I had been gasping for an incident to intervene, I quickly changed and coiled back wishing for a reverse. “Anything but this, please,” I muttered.“Anything but telling Kylian the truth,” I repeated.

I needed Dexter as much as our passion burned all night long.Since the start when I knew him, he always had a dark intention that he kept secret. He wanted to be the Alpha of the Red Phoenix Pack but he wasn't strong enough to challenge the mighty Alpha, Kylian.Some years ago, I was in bed with a stranger I invited over. Mere minutes from embracing him, Dexter stormed in with an emergency for Kylian but he was not around.He caught me holding hands with the stranger, I thought I was done for, especially when he kicked the stranger out. I begged him to keep my secret and I was also afraid that I would have to eliminate one of Kylian's trusted guards but tables turned for me in a way that I never expected.“Since when have you been cheating on Kylian,” Dexter asked me in an old, dusty room.“This is my first.

It sounds great. Oh, it must suck to be Maya right now,” I laughed loudly and rolled happily from each ends of my bed. Only a matter of time, then I'd woo his heart, move into his room and give him the time of his life. “A girl would do or another son,” I whispered to myself “We will have children to mark our reunion and the only thing I gotta do this time is not get caught,” A smirk escaped my lips and I willfully let out more, giggling like I was in a fantasy island that tickled me all night.

Don't tell me you plan to go into war because of a girl,”I glared fiercely at her and clenched my fists “A girl, huh? You still refer to her as a rando,”“Well, let me be clear. Those neighbouring packs have been daring for some time now and I will stop at nothing to get Maya back,” “Huh,” Jennifer muttered in disbelief.“This is madness,” my father interjected “You can't just march in to another territory and make demand without evidence. What are you? A tyrant,”“If that's going to get Maya for me, then I'd happily do it,” I fired back.“Son, let's take a breather. You are not thinking straight, okay,” my mother begged, clasping her
