~KAELIn the end, I could only ball my hands into fists as I listened to Arden trying to seduce Zira. Even though it did not seem to be working on her, it was affecting my wolf.I buried those balled fists between my legs so that my father would not notice. Especially as I was in the front seat with him.I sighed heavily and tried to move my thoughts to other things. I even told myself that if I paid attention to the scenery as we drove past, I would feel better. Yet Arden's voice filled the background and I found it annoying as he was disrupting my thoughts. I needed to drown him out completely.Suddenly, thoughts of Bella entered my mind again. I remembered that I planned to meet her and I kept her in my mind so that I would not forget. She was the first person I was going to see once Dad's car drove back into the garage of the Packhouse.As if on cue, the large Villa of the Packhouse came into view in all its glory. It was believed to have been constructed with the best technology

~ZIRAI shook my head at the now empty terrace. I narrowed my eyes at Gael. For some reason, I did not just want to let him be. I wanted to follow him up. I was tired of getting treated like trash by him. I was tired of getting his rejection. I wanted to get to the bottom of this and I knew that he was the only person who could reveal it to me now.So I walked back into the building and used the stairs to descend from the top. I had no idea where he had gone. I was only using his scent to track him down.My wolf basked in his scent. It was enjoying every bit of how it smelt. If it was up to it, then wolf would have been satisfied with sleep in a room where I got to smell him constantly.I found myself walking down into the main hall. Dinner had not yet been served. I believed that we had all missed lunch. It did not matter. What I was about to do was more important.I soon realized that his scent was leading me out into the open air. Until I saw him in the garage, working on his fath

~ZIRAMy heart sank as Kael asked me the question again. If I were to tell him what that thing had been, then it would send more questions at me. Questions like why a Death wraith was after me. If that question was asked, only a few would be able to understand me. Some might think that I had gone insane.The last thing I also wanted was to jeopardize my mission. No one had to know just yet that I had died and come back from the dead. I also hoped that I would not revive any visit from my Death wraith friend.Kael was still waiting for me to give him an answer so I chose to play the unaware card. "I don't know what it was either. I was hoping that you would know about it and tell me," I answered.Kael continued to stare at me and it made me want to cower away. My wolf shifted at his unusual attention but I needed to endure it. At least until I was able to break free from him."So why did it take you so long to answer?" He demanded.I gulped as my wolf twisted with uncertainty. "I fou

~ZIRAI felt my world slowly coming back to me as I rose to my feet. I wiped away at the tears that had flowed out of my eyes. An involuntary shiver seized me and I hugged myself as I felt cold.Crying always left me feeling cold but I needed to push it very far away. None of that mattered now. What mattered most was that this story that my father was about to reveal to me."You might want to sit down for this," Father suggested as he gestured as his empty seat.I contemplated turning his offer than but decided against it as I realized that it would only cause the ice that had risen between us only become harder to break.So I accepted as I felt my wolf stir within me. I quietly came to the chair and sank on top of it. Mother took a look at my hair and let out a disapproving sigh before grabbing a brush and beginning to run it through my hair.I had no choice but to stare at them through their reflection as I felt my heartbeat slowly begin to accelerate. My nervousness was coming back

~ZIRAMy heart sank as it got to this part of the story. My wolf began to stir restlessly within me. My sunken heart began to pound heavily as I could already imagine the wrath that Uther must have unleashed upon them. Seeing how evil he was and what he got Arden to do to me after killing my parents in cold blood.But from this story, I realized that his anger had began a long time ago. It had a deeper root. He had always wanted to be the Alpha but it was stolen right from under his nose."When Uther saw us, that was when all hell broke loose. He screamed Tyrone's name and that startled us apart. I will never forget the raw rage on his face. It was nothing like I had ever seen. He resembled a beast and he looked like the most dangerous man I had ever seen," Mother revealed her fear.I felt an involuntary shiver seize me from within my core and get released as cold shaky breaths of fear. My wolf came alive with alarm and I bit my lip immediately as I listened to them.Father grew cold
