Kira's POVThat night, I sneaked in through the window and locked it immediately. As soon as ken left, fear took hold of me. There was always this feeling that something or someone was after my life and I couldn't shake it off.I felt weak in this human body, unable to do anything. I no longer had the zeal to practice my spells because they kept getting worse. What happened earlier was still shocking to me and until I got an explanation for that, I was going to quit my spells.I wanted to stick to my initial motive which was to figure out why this happened and also a way to get back to my body because I felt unprotected and lonely without Austin in my life.******I went out for a Jog the next day to clear my head. Both of my ears were shut with a headset. What I wanted to do was forget everything and just be free, because I had been so tense these last few days.I jogged past a car but didn't pay attention to it at first. I didn't know why, but I suddenly felt the need to look behind
Kira's POV I sat on a seat in the school's boulevard with my head dipped in a book. I was very engrossed in it but stopped reading when someone sat next to meI looked at the person and my heart skipped a beat. It was Austin, sitting very close to me. “You don't seem like the type to read," he said “Oh, I uh... actually love reading a lot. What makes you say that?"“Nothing" he shrugged“You don't like reading"“Was that a question or a statement?"“It can't be a question. I know you too well to ask you about yourself"“I should be scared""But you are not. You must have started believing me” I said, already proud of my progress."There is a possibility of that happening, but that doesn't make it completely sane”I rolled my eyes. "Do you want to know about Kira or not?"“If I didn't want to know, I wouldn't be here“I was on... We used to be mates. You loved me and I loved you too. We didn't do almost everything together. Although everyone hated me, you didn't""Why did they hate
Kira's POV.As I slept, someone repeatedly kept throwing stones at my window. Sleeping in the cold was something I loved and I didn't want to stop for even a second. But the constant distortion made me wake up. I was mad.I opened the door of my window to see who the fuck was making that noise. I almost yelled out, but when I saw Christine, I mellowed down. She was dressed in a black dress and her hair was properly spruced up. It made me wonder what the big event was, then I remembered the party she had earlier talked about.Oh crap!“You switched off your phone?“ She looked angry while I looked like a guilty kid with my head slightly popped out my window." I had no idea” That was the only lie that could pop up in my head and it was a stupid one."I'm coming in” “How the fuck are you going to climb with your heels on?" I hadn't finished talking when I saw a heel flying towards me at full speed. I was able to dodge without getting hurt.“Fuck! Christine” I groaned in annoyance as I w
Kira's POV “I thought you were leaving?"Christine asked as she saw me approaching where she sat.“I guess I'm stuck with you after all."“ You won't regret it" she beamed, but I rolled my eyes at her. “would you like?" she stretched a bottle of wine to me.“No, I'm fine" After getting threatened, I needed to be as alert as possible. Getting drunk was a no-no. I was going to survive this night as long as I stayed away from Xavier and also mind my business.“Hey, there pretty" I heard from behind me and I turned to look at the person already pissed.“Fuck off"I glared at the blonde guy who scowled at me before leaving.“Be nice" Christine frowned at me, but I didn't care. I was having such a wonderful sleep, but I was dragged to a party where my life was on the line and I was expected to just be cool with it.My phone vibrated from my purse and I brought it out. It was a text from an unknown number.“If you want to know everything about Ken, come to the school's foyer"I looked at the
Ken's POV I staggered to my house that night. I had healed, but I was still exhausted. The hatred I had for myself was immense. I almost hurt her. But what was she doing in school at that time? She was supposed to be at the party.When I smelled her blood, I went insane. I lost all atoms of reasoning I had in my body and I rushed to her. I was desperate to get the taste of her blood. The self-control I had been learning to stop me from hurting humans went out the window.I didn't know what would have happened if Austin didn't come to save her. I wasn't myself.I was cursed. I couldn't love her. I was a beast and loving her meant continuously hurting her. That was my definition of love.I dragged my feet up the stairs to my room. I opened the door of my room and walked in.There I saw it, the unfinished drawing I had of her. I ran my hand through it. Maybe I should have never met her because she was driving me crazy, making it hard for me to go with my initial plan of staying away fro
Kira's POVI raised my hand to knock on the door. My hand felt stiff for the first few seconds. It was due to the nervousness I felt. I wasn't supposed to feel that way, but I did.After multiple trials, I finally succeeded in bringing my hand to the door. I knocked multiple times and waited for door to openIt didn't take long before the door flung open and my eyes met with a furious-looking Ken. The moment he saw me, his eyes softened.“What are you doing here?" he asked. The tone of his voice gave off panic.“I Uhm..." I searched my head for an appropriate answer. I was blank because his intense gaze was kept on me, preventing me from speaking. “Came to check on you" was the only word that could make its way out of my lips."I am fine” he tried to shut the door in my face, but I was quick to stop him from doing so."Mirabel please leave” He begged. He looked disturbed and restless. “Why what's wrong?" I asked, confused. I had barely said anything and the last quarrel we had wasn
Kira's POV “Hey" I heard behind me, but I kept on walking. I knew it was a relentless Xavier who wouldn't let me be. He had been, I wouldn't say stalking, but he had been poking his head in my business lately and that pissed me off.I didn't want him around because I was scared of him. He was still my major suspect of what happened that night. I wanted to stay as far away from him as possible, but he was impossible to deal with.“You can't keep ignoring me forever,” he said, ``Already catching up to me. I was walking as fast as I could, but he just kept getting closer without putting in any effort. When he had gotten to where I was, he placed his arm around my shoulder and I stiffened. His closeness was killing and I didn't think he realized that. I couldn't stand his annoying self so I kept on walking, hoping and praying that he would leave, but he was relentless. If he was trying to get me pissed off, then he was doing the perfect job. I was at the stage of. 'lay your hands on me
Kira's POV.“Why won't you talk to me?" Christine called out from behind me while I walked at full speed. “At least tell me what I did wrong" she ran after me and stopped in front of me.“Mirabel for Christ's sake. Tell me what's up" she pouted and I rolled my eyes at her.“You invited me to that stupid party, now Xavier wants my head”“Woah" Christine exclaimed. “You don't mean that, do you?"“Of course I do. He wants to end me. Like, kill me. Wipe me out of the face of the earth"“Xavier doesn't seem like that type of guy Mirabel," she said, finding it hard to believe.Of course, he had blinded her eyes with his charms. Only I knew how dangerous he was. I would have been dead if it wasn't for Austin.“I was almost killed that night during the party by your loving prince charming and he threatened me this afternoon"Christine cocked her eyebrows in confusion. At that point, I was certain it was going to be hard to convince her.“Suit yourself if you don't believe me" I walked away, b
