ALEJANDRO I downed the liquid, relishing the way it burned my throat before I tossed the glass onto the ground, watching it shatter into a thousand pieces before gripping the balcony rail as I glared out into the darkness. Why couldn't I fucking control myself? I was fucking losing my shit and she stood there unbothered. Fuck, I was relying on her running away from me. Not coming to my fucking engagement looking like a fucking goddess. The way she stood there... poised, in control and that goddess damned aura of hers. The urge to mark and mate with her right now was taking over. I needed her gone… How do I get her to leave? "Alejandro." Rafael's voice came. Well fuck, can no one leave me the fuck alone? Clearly not. He came over and rested on the rail next to me. I clenched my jaw, glaring out ahead. "You ok? You seem… restless." He said, his fucking concern clear in his voice. I scoffed. "I'm not a fucking kid Raf, and more than that,

ALEJANDRO An hour had passed since everyone had been healed or taken care of. As much as I fucking hated it, Kiara healed everyone without a care who saw her ability and who didn’t. I knew Elijah wasn’t pleased, but it seemed like me, he probably didn’t feel like there was anything we could have fucking done to stop her. Something about Kiara’s aura, her strength, and the way she oozed authority seemed to carry itself knowingly. As I said, she’s a fucking queen. Alpha Jake was sent home after being given the option to hold a funeral for his mate here, but he refused. I sent men with the families of those who had lost someone and the injured that were now mostly healed were given the option to stay and rest or leave. The Alphas who were unharmed all decided to take their leave. With these attacks, they didn’t feel comfortable leaving their packs unwatched. Although we all knew the target was Kiara. This new warning may have hinted at attacks on packs,

KIARA Three hours had passed, and I still wasn’t able to sleep. Every time I shut my eyes, I was either seeing Alejandro telling Jasmin to ignore me or him saying he couldn't mark her. I pushed the covers off, now agitated. I had blocked the mind link off because I didn’t want to talk to anyone, and I was glad Mom hadn't tried to bother me. We both needed to calm down. I had even texted Raven, filling her in on everything two hours ago, but she must be asleep now… The forty-minute shower I had when I came up wasn’t enough to relax me… What should I do? A sudden thought came to me and I smiled. I knew what I should do… and it was already late, no one would be awake. Kicking off the covers, I jumped out of my bed, wincing at the pain in my ankle. I paused, remembering how it hadn't hurt when I had lunged at the Wendigo... Did my ability have something to do with that? I would need to trial it out another time. I didn’t want to attract Wendigos. I pulled

KIARA   ‘Amore Mio’… My love in Italian… The words Alejandro had said before he left the kitchen. Words that only gave my wolf hope whilst creating uncertainty and curiosity about what the future might hold. These words filled my mind and entered my restless dreams. Dreams where he marks Jasmin, tells her to ignore me before they walk away. Dreams that hurt. The scene constantly changed from his whispered words of sweetness to him turning his back on me. "Rise and shine Kia." Mom's voice made my eyes open suddenly. "Mom, ever heard of knocking?" I asked, rubbing my eyes as she pulled the curtains open. She gave me a small smirk. "Yeah, I just didn’t want to." I rolled my eyes, my eyes falling on the two mugs of hot chocolate that sat on my bedside table. I knew she wanted to talk… great… She sat at the end of my bed. Without her trademark red lipstick that she was rarely seen without, she looked years younger. I sw

KIARA   I almost burst out laughing at the way he struggled. I pressed my lips together to stifle the giggle but I still had a huge smile on my face. He was actually trying? That was cute... Let’s see how long it lasts. He began speaking again and I ignored all the looks we were getting. More so, Alejandro was receiving. After all, the man listened to no one. I felt a fuzzy warmth inside me. He was trying, and in return, I wasn’t going to press his buttons just to see how far he would go. We both had a long way to go and just acting on our emotions was not going to be enough. "I want to go with you." I said suddenly. All eyes snapped towards me and I saw both Dad and Alejandro frown. "Kia, it’s really dangerous." Aunty Indy said, concerned. "Doesn't matter. I'm strong and Alejandro will be with me." I said, my heart hammering at the thought of going anywhere alone with him… Shit, maybe this was a bad idea. "I don’t know if
