Kayla’s POVWas this some kind of joke? He comes here, says the people who attacked us were not from Redwolf ( as if!”, then he pretends to be on their side as if he knows something that they don’t about these “ non-redwolves “ and then to crown it all, he dares open his mouth and say that he’s come for me? The more I went over it in my head, the more it became clear to me that maybe this was another dew. There is no way that this is really happening right now. Yes, this is a dew and when I wake up from it I will inform Hector right away that Aidan is going to come here and tell lies about the men who attacked us because there is no way that Hector and Max will just stand there and watch as their enemies lie to them. Hector will kill Aidan, ending him once and for all. The only bad part of all this is that I have to wait for all this rubbish to unfold before I can wake up from it. “You’re here for who?” Max asked, this time, he was trying hard not to laugh. “ Kayla? I heard that s
Hector’s POVMax and Murray took Aidan straight to an underground cellar where alpha Jax was already listening and waiting for us. But we were interrogating Aidan, I was hearing something that I wasn’t happy to hear – Kayla’s tensed breathing. The girl was watching the entire time and I didn’t understand why she would do that! Did she want Aidan to see her? Did she miss him?As we chained Aidan to the wall, I sent secret messages to other gammas and betas to ensure that some spies weren’t trying to use Aidan as a diversion to get into our city and they immediately did as I told them. When I returned Aidan was being beaten mercilessly no doubt by Alpha Jax and Max. “ I said it before, those men aren’t my men. My father was killed today okay? I knew that they would try to –““ – How would you know that though? You don’t even make any sense.” “ shut up Max, just leave me with him,” Alpha Jax said harshly. “ I said leave!” he yelled this time and Max, stared at his father and that star
Kayla’s POVBecause it took until the next day before we were allowed to leave, Sapphire and I had to sleep at her frenemy’s house. Not that she told me anything about the boy and his mother, I just felt that they were once friendly with her but now…not so much. The second we got the secret message that only the Mystiks could understand, Sapphire and I left that morning, and throughout she was so moody and it made me uncomfortable because she’s normally bubbly and energetic so why is she acting this way? “ What should I do?” she asked me all of sudden as we kept walking back to Mystik capital where their house was located. I looked at her and she was crying. Other people were walking back to the capital as well and I didn’t want to make a scene so I just pulled her aside and placed my hand on her shoulder. This was so weird for me to do because I’ve never had any reason to console anyone, I’ve always been the consoled one. What would Becka do? I sighed and said to Sapphire,” what
Kayla’s POV“ This makes no sense Sapphire. How can Max be your mate? Isn’t Aubrey having some kind of “thing” with him?”“ She’s not. She is in love with Hector, I send her to meet Max and to beg him to…allow me to reject him.” I couldn’t believe this, none of it makes sense. If she knows Max is her mate, why would she want her sister to convince Max into them breaking their mate bond? On second thought, I don’t know Max very much but from what I’ve seen so far, he is not worth Sapphire at all. How could he experiment his powers of submission on her? Maybe this is the best thing she can do because if she lets Max have her then he will keep on abusing his powers on her and eventually everyone else when he becomes Alpha. “ But…what about his girlfriend, Barbara?” I asked, remembering that Barbara is Max’s girlfriend. “ She’s the one his parents want for him.” “ Then since he’s already dating the girl his parents approve he should leave you alone and stop using you as a tool.” “ Bu
Kayla’s pov Hector did not sit while listening to what Sapphire had to say, he stood by the door, folding his hands and every time Sapphire would say something that provoked him, his eyes would turn gold and revert to their original color. I realized how much Sapphire meant to him, she was like a little sister to him, one he would kill for but…why didn’t he show the same attitude to Aidan? I took a deep breath, calming myself so that I do not ruin his mood any further. Whatever answer I need from him about Aidan he would not give it to me in the current state of mind he is in. By the time Sapphire finished talking, there was complete and total silence in the sitting room where we all sat. The only sound that I could hear was the sound of the clock ticking and the heartbeat of each one of us. Theresa’s heart was thumping quite fast because she was just told that Aubrey is in love with Hector and has absolutely no feelings for Max the way she’s been pretending to and then her younges
Hector’s POVThe minute I told Kayla the message that had just been passed across, I could see her panicking inwardly. She was worried but I didn’t know if it was because of me or because she already knew Aidan was around.“ This is obviously Aidan’s handwork. I knew the moment he came here that he was here as a diversion.” She said, throwing the others into confusion because they do not know Aidan. “ Wait, who is Aidan?” Sapphire asked. It wasn’t long after she asked this that she gasped, realizing who Aidan is. “ He is your mate, right? The one from Redwolf?” Sapphire was asking to confirm but the door flung open and Lea entered with a worried look on her face. “ What the literal Hector! Why the heck are they framing you for this?” she asked angrily shutting the door from inside so that no one else can enter from outside the house. This is my favorite thing about Lea, she and I may be mostly goofy around each other but she knows when shit is real and she knows what I’m capable a
Hector’s POVIt was not easy slithering past men who were on the lookout to capture me and take me to Max no doubt but I knew it would be better for me to go on my own to confront Max. He would act a bit less foolishly than if he had a crowd, then he would want to make an example of me and I know that my wolf will lose control and I will beat the crap out of him. If that happens that would only make people truly believe that I killed Alpha Jax and is now coming for his son. As far as I was concerned, Alpha Jax cannot be dead. Max is playing games again and I know this is just one of the most stupid games he’s played so far. When I got to the cellar, no one was there, not even Aidan. I was thinking about where Max could be when a young man spotted me, he was going to raise an alarm but I sped off to where he stood and snapped his neck. I didn’t really go hard with the neck-snapping so he wi wake up eventually. The way he kept looking Eastward where Alpha Jax’s house was, I believed
Kayla’s POVFrom the moment Hector left the house and locked us inside, we stayed inside quietly inside each of our rooms. No one was talking to the other and no one left even though they have their keys. I couldn’t sleep and I didn’t have a phone to take my mind off of what was happening so I kept thinking back about how these past few weeks since I left Redwolf has been for me. Could my life be worse than it is here? I mean, I’ve only been in school for a day and it was cut short because of that damn thing called a dew. But the first few moments were okay. If I were in Redwolf they’d all be ridiculing me because Aidan rejected me and chose to be with April. As I lay on the bed thinking, the most unexpected thought came through my mind. “ What if Aidan rejected you because of the Mate Slayer? What if he never wanted to leave you?” I instantly became irritated by the thought and decided to clear that thought out of my mind. Aidan rejected me because he wanted to reject me, there wa
