CHAPTER 27.2
“Mom,” I called out in a shaky voice as I entered the place I called home. Tears stung my eyes and my lungs constricted. It had been two months since I came here. Gripping the edge of the table, I gasped. “Mom, are you home?”
My gaze darted around the hall restlessly; finally landing at the doorway between the hall and the kitchen. Emma was standing there; a sheer poster of elegance and warmth.
Tears brimmed in her eyes as she stepped into the hall and called out in an uncertain voice, “Miraya?”
My mind veered to the last time we had met. I had said so many harsh words to her; even taunting her for her inability to bear children.
Tears rolled down my cheeks as the words pricked my insides. I had heard that a mother’s love is boundless. Today, I could see it in Emma’s eyes; the sea of endless love and compassion.
Despite the way I had behaved earlier, she didn’t curse or complain. She didn’

“Where did you get the money to buy drugs?”“Who else in your circle takes drugs?”“Your father mentioned a breakup. Dis your ex take drugs too?”“Who is your dealer?“Do you have any links to the underground racket that was discovered two years ago?”My lips curved in an involuntary smile as the officer continued to question me. It felt good to be questioned like a normal person; not having to think about Andres or any of that crazy supernatural stuff.“What are you grinning about? Do you think you can escape the hands of the law?” He growled in frustration. This only made me smile wider. He turned almost purple with rage.His fist came slamming on the table. “Once your medical reports are here, I will wipe that smirk off your face.”Oh yeah! The medical reports. Once they are here, it will be proven that I didn’t take any drugs. I will have to

“Miraya, please eat something,” Cassius said, and something brushed against my lips. “It has been an entire day since you put anything in your mouth.”I turned my head away, hoping that he would leave me alone, but he didn’t. He kept coaxing me. In the end, I blurted out in an annoyed voice, “I don’t really have any appetite, Cassius. Why won’t you just leave me alone?”He sat beside me and cupped my face; forcing me to look at him. “I am worried about you, Miraya. It hurts me to see you like this.”The frown on my forehead deepened, and I gulped. “Go back to your home, Cassius. Haven’t I already told you that I don’t love you? Why do you keep coming back like a pathetic dog?”His expression hardened and his jaws clenched. “This attitude is the reason you are alone, Miraya. Your parents must have been fed up with your attitude and that is why….”He got to his feet and stormed out of the room. The sound of receding footsteps echoed in the room and slam! The door was banged shut.Cassiu

“Miraya?” I was still standing over that man’s body when Cassius’ deep and velvety voice sounded behind me.Startled, I spun around with a gasp. My eyes flickered between him and the man’s body, “H… How much did you see?”His eyes widened in horror as he took a step toward me. He raised his shaking fingers and touched my cheeks. “Is this still you, Miraya?”I took a step backward and wiped the blood off my lips. Raising my bloody hand, I burst into a peal of dry laughter. “What do you think? I just killed this boy lying here.” My throat constricted. “I sucked his blood until the light in his eyes died.”He shook his head vehemently, “I don’t believe you can do something like that.” He rushed over and held my shoulders. “I know you very well, Miraya. You are anything but a killer.”I looked into his eyes, brimming with emotions. Love di

When I returned home, Cassius was pacing up and down the porch. His eyes lit up on seeing me and he ran to catch up with me. “Where did you go suddenly?” His concerned gaze raked all over me. “Do you have any idea how worried I was?”I laced my arms around his arms, and a ghost of a smile played on my lips. He was safe, and I hadn’t killed anyone; at least not today. I blinked my eyes to restrain those stupid tear drops, but they spilled over my cheeks, anyway.“Miraya? Why are you crying?” His breath hitched and his face grew a shade paler. “Please don’t hide anything from me, okay….”I nodded. “I am just glad to see that you are fine.”His expression darkened, and he pulled away, smacking his fist against his palm. “It is him, isn’t it? He threatened you again.” His jaws clenched and his eyes narrowed. “I am going to kill that fucking bastard!”“I don’t think Cassius has that kind of ability, do you, Miraya?” Andres’s voice sounded, making me jump. “Don’t tell me you are depending o

A sharp, burning sensation in my throat and lungs woke me up. Snapping open my eyes, I found that the room was filled with a strong haze of smoke.“Cassius! Wake up.” I called out in a panicked voice, shaking him up. “Our house is on fire.”He sat up, blinking, and then rubbing his eyes. He looked so adorable in that daze, but there was no time to admire him. I grabbed his arm and led him out of the house at vampire speed. We had just moved into the courtyard when Boom! The house exploded; sending pieces of debris flying in all directions.I spun around quickly, pushing him to the ground and covering him with my body. Pieces of cinder and rocks pelted my back, but I held on.“Miraya, Cassius, Don’t just stay here. Come with me.” Alpha Azarel’s voice sounded as he helped me up and led us both further away.My mouth hung open, and I gaped as the long tongue of flames flared brighter. There was another e

At first, both Cassius and I were wary of Alpha Azarel but as time went by, we started trusting him more. Alpha Azarel told me more about the vampire kingdom, the Lycan king, his pack, and the witch covens. It was as thrilling as it was stupefying to know the ins and outs of the power structure in the supernatural world. Everyone was hanging on a thin thread of balance; each struggling to tip the other over the edge. We met several prominent members of the pack and talked to them. I even met a few alphas of other packs. He never stopped me from doing anything I wished. Just to test him, I tried to leave his pack’s territory with Cassius. He didn’t get riled up or flustered; instead, he offered to accompany me. That was the day he took me to meet the Lycan King. The Lycan Palace sprawled over hundreds of acres of land. Built in marble and red sandstone, it oozed elegance and grandeur. There was a large garden with an exquisite fountain in the fro

“Where is that bitch? Is she still sleeping?” A harsh voice resounded in the background, piercing through the darkness surrounding me.“Yes, Alpha.” Another sickly sweet voice sounded, “Now that she is going to turn eighteen, she has sprouted wings. She thinks that a charming mate will appear magically and save her.”“Omega!” The harsh voice sounded again, this time louder with a tinge of controlled anger. “Come down this moment!”I groaned and tossed to my side, covering my ears. Why were they shouting so loudly? Another groan left my lips, followed by a whimper.“Omega! If you don’t come down in five seconds, I will kill you!” The voice held such vehemence that it shattered the darkness around, bringing forth flashes of memories.My eyes snapped open, and I sat up with a gasp. He was calling for me. I was the omega of this pack. The momentary effect of adrenaline ebbed a bit soon, and I was made aware of the bone-breaking ache that consumed my body. My entire body seemed to be burn

He stood there like that for a few moments before approaching me slowly; his hands raised in the air, “Are you okay?” I pulled myself to a sitting posture and nodded. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he knelt beside me. He lifted my chin gently and gulped, “I am so sorry, Omega. I am sorry that I couldn’t do anything about this.”I shook my head and waved my hands, trying to tell him that this wasn’t his fault.“I am so silly, right?” His dejected voice sounded as he pulled out a small box from his pocket. “I am asking you if you are okay…. How can someone be fine in this hellhole?”He applied the medicine to my bruise; his fingers moving along my skin with a feathery movement. “It is all my fault, Omega. I should have helped you escape long back; maybe the first time Alpha Azarel laid his hand on you.”He cupped my face, his lips pressing into a thin line and his eyes brimming with guilt, “I am sorry that I couldn’t stand up for you….” His voice cracked with emotions as he continued,
