Chapter 12- Sheer will   For the whole period of the council meeting, Killian did not say a single word to Kendra. Everything he wanted to say that required him addressing her, he threw to their gamma, Miguel, instead. He had seen how much that had unnerved her, but he literally didn’t care. It wasn’t like she had cared about his feelings when she had turned up late to the meeting with his worst enemy anyway. By the time the meeting had ended, Killian was a complete thinking mess. Was Tyrone courting his Beta? It seemed like the only logical explanation… the only reason why they were suddenly spending so much time together. But if that were so, why hadn’t Kendra told him about it? Of course she knows you’re going to blow your fucking fuse, you arrogant brute! His conscience mocked darkly, but he brushed the thoughts aside. He didn’t care. Kendra could do wha

Chapter 14- Seeking Answers Love.Now Killian just had to laugh at that.As much as that would have been a very wonderful piece of news, it was unfortunately not true. There was no way he was in love with Kendra.No literally, there was no way.He had been cursed. Or had everyone suddenly forgotten about that?“You seem to have forgotten that I’m still cursed—”“No, I know that… but think about it, man…” Tyrone cut him off excitedly, “Until yesterday, you thought you were impotent… hell, we all thought you were. Honestly speaking, I’d wager everything I have if it came down to it, but I think you’re slowly breaking all the other aspects of the curse, Killian.”Killian pondered over the blonde Alpha’s words…Could he be telling the truth?And if he was, what did that mean for him?

Chapter 16- The Rejection “Maymunah? What are you doing?” Killian asked in confusion. “Come on, get up Maymunah…” Kendra quickly rushed to her side, “What were you thinking, kneeling down like that?” The she-wolf helped the old hag to her feet. “What’s going on?” She and Killian both asked at the same time, waiting for the Oracle’s reply. But the old woman continued to move about, seeming exceptionally happy all of a sudden. “Oh, you two clueless pups,” She finally said. “Don’t you see? The goddess of the moon has come to our aid. The curse has been broken.” “I-I don’t understand.” Kendra shook her head in confusion. What was going on with the Seer? Had the over-exertion perhaps affected her in more ways than they could imagine? Because she was really acting all weird. “Kendra, Killian. Take a seat you two, I’m going to explain everything.” The two wolves did as the oracle said. “You know we’re supernatural, right?” She started. Kendra and Killian shared a silent look. It was

CHAPTER 18- Artemis returns “Beta Sullivan, today’s milled corn’s looking coarser than usual. Is that supposed to happen?” Kendra chuckled at the question. Normally she’d have no knowledge on that, but her love for reading had made her quite the expert. “Well, technically, no… but it does happen sometimes, Mavis.” She addressed the short, chubby, woman with raven dark hair. “And I’ve told you to call me Kendra.” “I’m sorry, milady— I mean, Kendra…” The older woman corrected with a soft chuckle, “That is going to take some time to get used to.” Kendra giggled. “No problem. Take all the time you need. Now back to the corn… you’ll have to mill it again. Keep doing it until the fineness is up to your taste, alright?” “Yes, mi—Kendra.” Kendra laughed out loud as she watched the older woman leave, going back to her work of sorting out lentils. She had to admit, working with the women wasn’t so bad… At all. She had had more fun in the past week than she had had her entire adult life

Maymunah wanted to see her. Kendra had half a mind to ignore the Oracle’s summons, but she had been told that it seemed urgent. And Kendra knew that Maymunah was usually the type to wait for you to cool down and approach her on your own. She didn’t go seeking people out like that, especially when she knew they were angry at her. So she found herself heading towards the old woman’s wing, clad in just her nightwear and a robe, but not really caring because it was just going to be the two of them, and she wasn’t really going to spend much time there. Imagine her surprise when she got there only to realise that they were not alone. At that point, turning back to go and change seemed like a really unnecessary thing to do. It wasn’t exactly as if she was completely naked, hell… you could even call her nightwear fairly decent as compared to some of the things the other she-wolves strutted about in in the guise of clothes. And so Kendra entered the room, greeting the two inhabitants… a b
