Twist of Fateย ย ย Chapter 27
Zydan-After settling everything with Lia and the other interns, I left the room in a huff. When I came face to face with my mother, I glared at her for a long moment without speaking. I might respect and love my mother, but she crossed the line. I might not have any proof, but I was sure she was behind Lia getting assigned to Shaw.โYou can be mad at me all you want, but I am doing this for your own good. Lia isnโt good enough for you. The only one you should be with is her.โ My mother gently shoved Arielle toward me.I noticed the moment that Arielle pretended to lose her balance as she fell toward me. She was clearly trying to use dirty tricks to get close to me. Reacting quickly, I stepped back to avoid Arielle falling into me while pivoting to the side.Jaxon exited the office at the perfect time and stuck his foot out to cause Arielle to trip for real. โOh, sorry about that.โ Jaxon smirked.โYou should really watch where you are going.โ I commented as Jaxon stepped over Arielle

Accalia-I needed to be more aware of what I said, or I would expose myself. Chewing on the inside of my lip, I hoped my excuse would work on Zydan. His eyes focused on me, making me feel like it would be better to find a rock to hide under."If you say so." Zydan muttered.He didn't seem convinced, but at least he let the matter go. Now that the system was fixed, I returned Jaxon's laptop to him, and he returned the computer I was supposed to use for my assignment. Returning to my work, I tried to ignore Zydan's presence."How about you take a break and eat." Jaxon put the takeout container on my wrists."I agree." Zydan took the laptop from me.I considered telling them I wasn't hungry but didn't see the point in resisting. While I ate, I wondered if Eclipse and Jon could find out who hacked Z.H Tech. I could have done it myself, but I would have revealed my identity as Akira."By the way, I hope you don't blame me for what my mother and Arielle are doing." Zydan spoke."What do you

Zydan-Arriving at the hotel, I checked my phone to see the time. Only then did I realize I had the phone on silent and had thirteen missed calls. I didnโt recognize the number and considered calling them back after checking on Lia. Before I put my phone back in my pocket, it lit up again with the same unknown number. โHello?โ I answered the phone as I walked toward the elevator and pressed the button. โThank you!โ A familiar female voice sounded breathless. โI was starting to worry that I wouldnโt be able to get ahold of anyone.โ โWho is this?โ I asked as I waited for the elevator to arrive. โMy name is Silica.โ She answered, but before I could ask why she was calling me, she continued talking. โI donโt have time to explain all the details, but I need to talk to your wife. Is she near you?โ โNo, she is meeting with Shaw Payne right now.โ I answered. The tone of her voice was alarming. Pressing the button to the elevator again, I hoped it would hurry up. A sense of urgency fille

Zydan-Over the following week, I alternated between work and visiting Lia at the base. There was a lot to handle at work, as I had to move interns around who had excelled with their assignments and entered full-time status. Chase was the only one in Liaโs group who hadnโt been promoted.I felt a little bad for him, considering he had Kent, who had helped him cheat. I did offer to let Chase redo the test, as Kent was fired shortly after I returned to work. It hadnโt taken much either, as I told the other board members what Kent had done. They forced him out without me needing to lift a finger.Brett and Lia could stay on the same team since I felt they would work well together. They also stayed with Jason while I moved Chase to another team with a few other interns who hadnโt passed. Diana was also forced to another team; I had noticed she would work better away from Chase influencing her. That was primarily because after Chase failed, he blamed Diana.I also didnโt think she could ke

Zydan-Going to my desk, I sat before my computer and stared at the dark screen. The reflection on the monitor wasnโt mine, or maybe it was, and I didnโt recognize myself. I also didnโt know what Jaxon was talking about. I know I had been on edge and ready to snap at the first person who looked at me wrong.As far as putting someone in danger, I felt he was imagining things. I also didnโt remember Jaxon telling me I should stay home for a few days. My phone rang as I stared at my computer without turning it on.โHello?โ I answered without checking to see who called.โYou need to go home.โ My fatherโs voice came through the speaker.โNot you, too.โ I groaned and glared at my office door. โDonโt listen to Jaxon. I am fine.โโNo, you arenโt. You are showing signs of dissociation and have developed a split personality. Do you remember talking to me this morning?โโShould I?โ I leaned forward and turned on my computer.โThis is what I am talking about. This morning, you and I talked on the

Accalia-I donโt know how someone has managed to pull one over on me for the second time. I had left to go to the store, but as soon as I entered the parking garage to leave, something hit me from behind, like a needle or something. I have always thought I was agile enough to avoid getting thrown off guard, but obviously, I wasnโt.When I woke up for the second time in a strange place, I felt relieved when I sensed my wolf. I thought it would take more time for my wolf to return. The fact that she was returning now couldnโt have been better timing.I was currently tied to a chair, with chains wrapped around my ankles and wrists. I knew I could get free without much effort with my wolf, but I sensed my wolf wasnโt at full strength yet. For now, I need to bide my time and assess the situation. It was clear someone had it out for me.Trying not to make any sudden movements, I looked around the area. Building materials surrounded me, acting as a wall, so I couldnโt figure out where I was.

Accalia-Over the course of three days, it was impossible to get away from Zydan. He hovered over her and wouldnโt give her any room. At night, I would try leaving through the bedroom door, but he slept in the shared closet, where I couldnโt get past him without waking him. I have gone as far as climbing over the balcony, but Zydan had men stationed everywhere.After he brought me home, I learned he hired guards to protect me. I knew I could find a way to escape at any point during the three days, but I decided not to push my luck. Luckily, today, he decided to go to work and leave me at the apartment alone.I would be happy to know Zydan cares if it weren't annoying. I just felt as if he was taking things a little too far. Lying on my bed, I waited for Eclipse to let me know he was ready to create a distraction.Zydan might have left, but his men were still everywhere. Two were standing by the door in the hall, two were standing on the rooftop, and three were stationed below the balc

Accalia-โMatt?โ I kept my voice low, but when he didnโt respond, I spoke louder as I repeated his name a few more times.โThank you.โ Matt whispered after the fourth time I called his name.Helping him sit up, I looked into his hazel and very human eyes. โHow are you feeling?โ I asked.โNormal.โ The corners of his mouth twitched. โMore than normal. I feel my wolf, but it isnโt fighting for control. It feels as if it is sleeping.โ A smile broke out across his face.โNow that I helped you, hopefully you can help me.โ I moved to my feet with Eclipseโs assistance.โI donโt know if I can tell you everything you want to know, but I will tell you everything that I do know.โ Matt also moved to his feet, but instead of standing, he went to sit on the small cot in the cell.I considered letting him leave the cell, but I decided keeping him inside until after the full moon was better. After that, I will decide what to do with him. Turning to Silica and Eclipse, I told them they could leave. Sil

Twist of Fateย ย ย Chapter 88: The future is ever changing
Accalia-โI already told you that whenever you are ready, I was willing. All you need to do is say the word. I know you wanted to wait to become Alpha Queen, so there is no rush. I will wait until you are ready.โMy smile widened. โI am ready now.โZydanโs face paled, and I wondered if he had second thoughts about marrying me. โWait. Are you serious?โโI have never been more serious.โ I nodded. โI realized that while I was going through all my memories again, I have always focused on what mattered to me and what I wanted. I thought I was making the right decision by waiting until my project was complete and becoming Alpha Queen before marrying you again. I now understand that when I get married was never important. Even if I am married, I can still abolish the marriage law for the future generations.โโThen when do you want to get married?โ Zydan smiled, and excitement sparkled in his eyes.โNow.โ I stated bluntly.โWhat about the wedding?โ My father asked when Zydan threw my covers o

Accalia-Ow, my head, I thought as I started to wake up. Opening my eyes, I took in my surroundings but didnโt recognize where I was. I was lying on a large bed with a dark purple comforter and black sheets. I also wasnโt alone in the room.The person sitting on the edge of the bed was looking at his phone and not me, so I tried not to move. I didnโt recognize the man, so I didnโt want to make sudden movements until I knew the situation. I was oddly familiar with the man and the room but couldnโt remember anything.โGood, you are awake.โ A voice I didnโt recognize spoke as someone I didnโt recognize walked to the side of the bed where the man was sitting.โHow are you feeling?โ The man, who had been preoccupied with his phone, quickly turned on the bed to look at me.Without a word, I slowly sat up and flinched when the man tried to help me. He took his hand back, but the look in his eyes was filled with pain. Sitting on the bed, I rested my back on the headboard and continued looking

Zydan-Rolling to my side, I avoid Shawโs attack, but it takes a moment for me to get onto my feet. My ears rang from the hit he delivered when I put myself between him and Lia. Once I was on my feet, I prepared myself for another attack.A sudden burst of energy erupted around me, and it took me a moment to understand that it was Liaโs wolf. Since I was between her and Shaw, I witnessed the moment Shaw was hit with a small lightning bolt. It zapped him but didnโt seem to do any harm.When Shawโs attention moved past me, I realized she had only used enough of a shock to get his attention. Turning my attention to Lia, I witnessed her transformation into a black wolf with the most captivating violet eyes I have ever seen. It wasnโt until now that I realized this was the first time I had seen her wolf.More than that, Liaโs wolf, Akira, had purple streaks of lightning swarming her as if caressing the fur on her body. The power that rolled off her was nearly ten times more intense than in

Accalia-Staring at the computer in a trance, I couldnโt believe my eyes. It has been two weeks since I sent Arielle and the other test subjects out. I thought it would take more time to determine the results from the final phase, but the indicators on the screen didnโt lie.The full moon was three days ago, and every test subject had maintained excellent results. I could have ended the final testing a week ago, but I put it off until after the full moon. I wanted to be sure there werenโt any issues. For the first time since I began the project, I felt as if a lot of pressure lifted from my shoulders.โIs something wrong?โ Emilyโs voice pulled me from my trance.โWe did it.โ I mumbled without taking my eyes off the computer screen.โSeriously?โ Emily asked and then shoved me to the side so she could look at the computer. โI donโt understand this stuff, but the indicators are the best I have seen.โโWe did it.โ I repeated as if I needed more confirmation.Suddenly, I jumped out of my ch

Zydan-Upon returning to the lab, I watched helplessly as Lia became busy again. It wasnโt like before. This time, it was as if she needed to keep herself busy in order to survive. Every time I tried to approach her, she would move on to her next task.When the volunteers Darnell sent to us arrived, it took away more of her freedom. I tried to help her, but there wasnโt much for me to do. Everyone was working hard to speed up the research results. Over the course of three weeks, we went from only having Arielle as a volunteer to having twenty more.We tried to see if the results from Arielleโs implant would be the same without the full moon. After the second volunteer was implanted and was able to shift and have the same results as Arielle, they continued implanting more volunteers. I couldnโt begin to understand what was going on with Lia or why she was pushing herself too hard, but I knew I couldnโt do much to help.I had a feeling it had much to do with the pressure she was under a

Accalia-โForgive me! I didnโt know.โ The man who had greeted us when we arrived said.Shaking my head, I smiled and turned to face him. โIt has been a while since I have been here, and although my identity is no longer a secret, not everyone knows who I am.โโI still should have sensed you.โ The man kept his attention on his feet, with his head bowed.โI was severely injured recently, so my wolf is resting.โ I stepped forward and placed my hand on his shoulder. โSeriously, it is no big deal.โ I dropped my hand when he lifted his head.โWell, now that you are here, I will report the most recent developments. I assume you were at the Kenyon residence?โ He asked, and I nodded in response.โThe members who went after the attackers just reported back.โ The man continued as I turned to open the office door so that we could discuss things in private.He stopped talking long enough to sit on a chair across from my desk. Instead of sitting, I leaned against the desk, resting my hip on the edg

Zydan-When the fire finally started disappearing, I was overjoyed. No longer feeling the need to keep spraying the house, I rushed forward to help Lia. The fire wasnโt completely out, but the majority of it was, other than a few small areas. The biggest issue now is the smoke.As I ran toward the house, I saw a group of people gathered, anxiously looking at the house. It looked like they were all inside the fire, meaning Lia had helped them escape. Looking around, I hoped to see Lia, but she wasnโt in the crowd.โWhere is Lia?โ I asked the couple huddled together, leaning on each other for support.โShe went inside to save my son!โ The man said, who I recognized as Darrion Kenyonโs father.โShe is still inside?โ My eyes quickly moved to the house, and fear plunged into me, nearly suffocating me.Even if the fire wasnโt as bad, it was still dangerous. With how many she had already saved, I assumed her wolf was reaching its limits. I tried to sense her, but the signal was weak. Without

Accalia-โWhat is going on?โ I asked as I glanced at Zydan.โI donโt have time to explain, but we need your help. We are under attack!โ Darrion yelled, and not even a second later, I heard a crash, followed by the call being disconnected.I rushed into the lab and quickly informed Emily that I needed to leave. โWhat is wrong?โ She asked.โI donโt know, but I believe the Kenyon family is under attack. Darrion called me, and it sounds urgent. Due to their distance, I have no choice but to go myself. Can you handle things until I return?โโDonโt worry about things here. I will take care of them. We have more than enough staff.โโThank you!โ I turned away from her to talk to the tech team and saw Jason.Although he wasnโt always in the lab, he was the one person I knew who could handle things on a technical level until I returned. I barely took two steps before he yelled out to me.โDonโt worry, I got it from here. You take care of whatever you need to.โNodding my head, I turned to leave

Accalia-โArielle told me what happened with everyone after I fell asleep.โ I twisted in my seat to look at Zydan.โI admit that I have let my thoughts run wild. There are times I feel as if I am not worthy of you. I feel I havenโt contributed enough when I see how hard you work. If I had done more, you wouldnโt be working yourself so hard.โ His focus remained on the road as he spoke.โYou know, I couldnโt do half of the things I can do if it werenโt for you and everyone around me.โ I smiled as I took his free hand in mine.โYou are the future Queen, the leader of the Renegades, and in charge of a project that can change the world.โโMy identity doesnโt define me. I might be the future Queen, but that has much to do with who my parents are. It isnโt like I came from nothing and worked my way up to that point. As far as being the leader of the Renegades, you have a huge part to play in that.โโWhat do you mean?โ Zydan glanced in my direction briefly before focusing on the road.โWhen I
