All Chapters of Her thirst for vengeance: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

Author's note at the bottom. Kayla’s POV It was Mia who quickly spoke up, "It's not that simple my Lord, this woman is a murderer!" she yelled and Alpha Adrian's cold eyes snapped back to me. His brow lifted and it seemed that his already intense gaze zeroed in on me even more. I felt my throat tighten like I was being suffocated but Mia refused to stop talking. "It's true Alpha, not only is she a cold hearted murderer, but who she killed were her own parents! She's not an innocent victim here, she's a monster!." Mia’s words rang in my ears like a death knell and I could only watch her smirk in satisfaction. I was frozen, feeling the weight of the traumatic accusation slapped in my face all over again. And to make matters worse, this tall, powerful dark Alpha that made me feel so many strange things would now hate me too. I forced myself to look at him, already expecting to see hate, fury or disgust in his eyes but my breath immediately hitched when I saw his expression.

Alpha Adrian’s POV The long car ride to Xavier’s pack was nothing short of infuriating. I was too restless and eager to see her that it made me impatient, and my men could see it. “You know, Alpha,” Beta Connor started, his voice laced with amusement, “your love life is weird as hell. First, the crazy Amanda. Then that reborn Luna. Now an ex Luna turned maid?" He sighed. "Well who knows, Maybe third time’s the charm.” My Gamma Logan laughed, shaking his head. “Can you imagine what he would do if Alpha Dante steals this one too?” I shot them both a murderous glare. “You two better shut the hell up about things you don't know.” Connor smirked. “Why? It’s a valid concern. You’re dragging us all the way to Xavier’s pack to pick up some girl you barely know. And you keep insisting she's not your new lover.” “She isn’t,” I snapped. Connor raised an eyebrow. “Then why the hell are you so hell-bent on taking her?” I gritted my teeth. “She looked like she needed help.” Connor

Kayla’s POVI kept myself pressed against the car door, as far away from Alpha Adrian as possible.But it didn’t matter.He still smelt so good that I felt my toes curl.Even with all the space I had put between us, his delicious smell and presence was overwhelming.His aura was suffocating, pressing against me like an invisible force, making my skin tingle. It was like he was right beside me, breathing down my neck.It was unsettling.And worse? It made me restless.There was something in the air between us, something I didn’t understand. My body reacted to it, drawn to something I knew I shouldn’t want. Not after what my mate did to me.I clenched my fists in my lap and tried to shake it off.Think of something else.Anything else.My brain finally strayed to how I had barely slept last night, and it was all Xavier’s fault.After my first encounter with Alpha Adrian, I had gone back to my room, knowing I needed to pack my things. He would return for me, and there was no stopping it.

Kayla's pov i nodded stiffly as Adrian said he wanted to tell me what my role was. My heart pounded a little harder in my chest, and I swallowed. He was watching me so intently, his sharp dark eyes never leaving mine, as if he was gauging every flicker of emotion that crossed my face. The weight of his gaze made my skin feel hot, my breath a little unsteady. And on top of that, we were so close. Too close. I forced myself to hold his stare, even as nerves crawled up my spine. “What… what is my role?” I asked hesitantly, my voice coming out quieter than I intended. Instead of answering right away, he shifted, moving even closer. My pulse jumped as he reached out, his large, warm hand taking mine. His touch was firm yet gentle, but it still made me tense up instinctively. I barely knew this man—this powerful Alpha—yet here I was, standing in his office, alone with him, while he held my hand like we were something to each other. I stiffened even more as a terrible thought took root in

Kayla’s POV I slipped into a comfortable pair of high-waisted jeans and a soft white sweater, sighing in relief at the cozy fit. After everything that had happened since I arrived, I needed a moment of normalcy. And shopping sounded like a perfect escape from all my chaotic emotions. A knock at the door startled me just as I was adjusting my sweater. "Come in," I called. The door swung open, and Ingrid stepped inside with a bright smile. "Hello again, Miss Kayla," she greeted. I smiled back. "Hi, Ingrid." She clasped her hands together. "I have some news." She said excitedly. "I am officially your personal assistant!" Heat rushed to my cheeks. "Oh Adrian." I sighed. "I'm sorry Ingrid—I tried to refuse," I stammered. "I told him it wasn’t necessary, but he insisted." Her smile widened. "Of course he did." I frowned. "Why are you so happy about this?" "Because," she said, grinning, "I’ve had to work for some very difficult people in this palace. But you?" She t
