Kiara

Two endless days had passed since I left California to spend a couple of days at my older sister’s house in Connecticut. She had a small, cozy house that she’d been renting for a few years. Every noise from outside made me jump, every phone notification made my heart race with nerves. I didn’t want to check my phone. I didn’t want to talk to anyone. Everything reminded me of the life I had started to build in California.

It was strange, because before I hadn’t wanted to go there or stay,

    Jake:“Did you divorce Irina? Why?” my brother asked, struggling to stay awake. His voice was fading, but he insisted on continuing to speak.“It’s not something I’d like to talk about with you,” I admitted.“Not even going to tell me in the state I’m in?”I hesitated for a moment before answering. I didn’t want his questions, didn’t want his opinion, didn’t want his eyes on mine as he tried to figure out why I'd decided to accept the divorce. But still, I told him.“What happened is that I asked Irina if she had anything to do with it… and she got so angry that she asked me for a divorce.”“So you weren’t the one who decided to divorce. She was the one who took that path,” Thomas clarified.“Yes, it was her, Thomas. But I was the one who decided that this time I wouldn’t chase after her. It’s not the first time Irina has asked me to separate, and I go after her, trying to fix things. But I realized this can’t keep happening between us.”“And why is that?” Thomas’s gaze deepened. “Doe

    KiaraHis hands slowly slid down my neck and settled on my hips. He held me firmly, because I knew that at any moment I might collapse. The kiss was so intoxicating, so full of passion, that I wanted more. My body betrayed me, my body craved more than just a kiss… and once again, guilt began to consume me, but I couldn’t help it. I couldn’t deny the instinct inside me. Love and anger pulled at me constantly. It wasn’t strange that I couldn’t forget Jake, and with this kiss, he only made everything more complicated.In the middle of our moment, the passion ended instantly when someone burst through the door. Jake pulled away from me abruptly, and we both looked at Rose, who stood by the doorway, having entered without knocking. Jake looked at her, annoyed, but it wasn’t her fault. Still, it bothered me that she knew Jake and me had kissed. It bothered me because she was part of the pack and could tell someone else, and this could reach Thomas if he was awake. I didn’t want to hurt him

    KiaraSo this meant he wasn’t sure about what was happening, and he didn’t trust me. Even seeing me broken, he still doubted my words. As I said, I didn’t want to try to convince him anymore that I was right and that my sister was the bad one. That was no longer my fight. But he had divorced her. One way or another, that gave me some relief. Not because of the love I felt for him, but because I knew that this way my children would be far from Irina, and my babies would be safe. Still, this didn’t erase all the danger, because Irina would come back for more. She always would. The enemy made that clear to me. The enemy told me she was evil, that she was behind all of this.“Please, try to understand me, Kiara,” Jake said. “It’s not that I don’t want to believe you, it’s that it’s hard for me to see Irina as someone bad. She’s been there for me. You see? She lost the baby. She was affected too. I truly believe you’re telling the truth, but I also think someone has been deceiving you, fil

    KiaraSeeing her walk into the room so shamelessly while Thomas was fighting for his life poisoned my blood in a way I couldn’t even explain.Rage was pouring out of me from every direction. I attacked, but as always, he stopped me. Jake broke up the fight and got in the middle.When he left the room and didn’t come back, I felt a deep emptiness.My heart stopped when he returned an hour and a half later. I felt the urge to insult him because I was sure he would believe her. I was certain she had tangled him up in another web of lies.Why would Jake believe me? I told him back in that house, and he looked at me as if I had said the worst thing in the world.I noticed he looked sad, pale, his eyes slightly red.Had he been crying?“What happened?” slipped from my lips.Rose was by my side, and Jake asked her to leave and speak with one of his Betas.She closed the door behind her.“We need to talk.”“Did he die?” I felt the anguish building in my eyes.I wanted to cry so badly.This ha

    JakeI let her go.As much as I tried to follow her down the hallway, she shouted at me in front of everyone to leave her alone. I had no choice. I think there was nothing left but to accept her decision this time. Something had broken, and she was right when she said I would never love her the way I loved Kiara. I couldn’t deny it anymore. Every reproach and every absence Irina endured because of me was because my feelings for the mother of my children always got in the way.I swallowed the lump in my throat as I watched her disappear at the end of the hallway when she stepped into the elevator. She cast me a quick glance as she got in, sad and devastated.I turned around, noticing the few people around, and went back to the waiting room. Mom didn’t take long to appear alongside Jason, one of my Betas.“There’s news, son,” Mom said, hugging me. “He’ll be out of surgery soon, but they say they don’t think he’ll wake up for a few days.”“Are you telling me Thomas is in a coma?” I pulle

    JakeIrina had no intention of responding, and I couldn’t stay silent, so I decided that continuing to talk to her was the best option. I needed her forgiveness.“I know that sometimes I’m an idiot and that I hurt you, but it’s not my intention to do it. I’m asking for your forgiveness—I’m begging you. You don’t deserve me like this. You deserve someone much better than this. It wasn’t you, you have nothing to do with this, I know that.”She let out a small laugh. It surprised me.I knew that laugh couldn’t mean anything good. Not now.“Yes, you’re sorry—I know,” she nodded, unconvinced.“I mean it, Irina,” I assured her.“I want a divorce, Jake,” she stated, this time looking at me. There was no trace of playfulness in her eyes. Only determination. She looked at me with so much anger and disdain that I knew there would be no going back to her. “I want you to sign the divorce papers. I’ll take care of everything and have my lawyers contact yours so we can end this once and for all.”“

    Kiara“He knows I have cancer,” I told Thomas when he came to pick me up.He frowned and helped me stand from the cold steps where I had been sitting. When Jake walked into the house, I knew I couldn’t stay in the same place as him. I asked Thomas to hurry and come get me, and he arrived as soon as

    Jake I walked past Kiara and Thomas, holding Irina’s hand. What nonsense. Kiara is trying to drag me into some confusing game of senseless accusations. I could be many terrible things, but I would never send a text message about a baby’s health issues. As we walked toward the house, leaving Ki

    KiaraJake stopped the car and got out. His face showed confusion and annoyance.“What the hell are you doing? Move. I need to park the car,” he said in a harsh tone.Thomas came to my side.“Do you think what you’re doing is funny?” I accused.Irina also got out of the car. Her red heels clicked ag

    Jake When that intrusive question escaped my lips, Kiara stiffened. I waited for her to turn and face me, but she didn’t. Her breathing quickened, sharper than before. A second later, she kept walking toward the exit. She couldn’t bear being in the same room as me, and honestly, I couldn’t stan
