All Chapters of Awakening the White Wolf: Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

Darius' POV I'd never been more stunned in my entire life like I was right now. The world around me tilted, and for a quick second, I couldn't help but think that I'd somehow landed in an alternate universe. One where my worst fears came true, one where everything was turned upside down, and one where the one person I'd been obsessing over just so she would be okay had just stuck a blade deep inside my chest by saying she had no idea who I was. Wait, what? My mind spun with a million and one things all at once, but nothing was as chaotic as the words that had just slid past Kiara's mouth. They tore through me like a blade, and I could as well say they'd lodged itself deep inside my heart. I wasn't bleeding physically, but it was the emotional hurt that burned the most. Who are you?“Kiara.” My voice came out as nothing short of a whisper. My fingers were trembling at this point, but I did nothing to try to stop it. “What do you mean?” She didn't answer immediately. Instead, sh

Darius' POV The chamber stank of old stone and older fear., and if that wasn't more than enough to have me spinning on my heels and walking out of here faster than the speed of light, then I had no idea what else would suffice. My eyes took in the damned place, and even though I'd been in here so many times, I couldn't exactly say I'd gotten used to it. Torches hissed against the walls, shadows curling long and thin, and every set of eyes locked on me like blades. They thought they finally had me cornered, but they were about to see that they were dead wrong, and had actually just shot themselves in the foot with this stupid meeting they'd set up. If it wasn't obvious by now,I didn't want to be here. I wasn't looking for a vacation spot, but anywhere aside from the four corners of this council chamber would suffice. After the unfortunate turn of events today, all I wanted , really wanted, was to be alone. It sounded strange and probably stupid, but I still couldn't believe

Kiara's POV The silence pressed too heavy against my ears. I'd heard that silent moments often tended to be comfortable, but right now, I wasn't sure I shared in that sentiment at all. The silence around me wasn't the least bit equivalent to peace. If anything, there was more chaos in the so called quiet than any other period in my life, and I couldn't help but wonder why. I really did try my best to get rid of it. Earlier, I'd started drumming my fingers against the bed side table, but it was only so long before my fingers hurt and went numb. I'd tried humming, but my throat dried almost immediately, and at a point, I'd even started whistling, but nothing seemed to be working. It didn't help that my mind was a whirlwind of emotions as well. I kept hearing my own voice from earlier, sharp and foreign in my mouth. Who are you?It was one thing to have woken up from something I didn't think I was going to survive. Till now, I still couldn't find the right surfs to describe what t

Kiara’s POV Of all the ways I thought tonight would end, best believe this kiss wasn't one of them. Hell,I'd been scared that Darius had been lurking in front of my door for quite some time now, and how their fuck did I show him that I wasn't exactly pleased with it? I kissed him. I fucking kissed the man like my life depended on it. His lips moved over mine with such reverence. It felt more like he was worshipping me more than anything else. His tongue slowly pushed into my mouth and the moan that slid past my lips was priceless. It echoed all around us, while it sailed up to the roof to make its nest there. His hands cupped my cheeks and his fingers trailed around my neck at my nape before he spoke. “Kiara.” His voice was low, so low it made my toes curl. He didn't say anything else after that, but I didn't miss the way his hand slowly slid down my side. He wasn't as free as he used to be with me, and I wondered if that had anything to do with the fact that I'd told him I

Darius' POV I wasn't one to be easily pressured, but I would be lying if I said that Rhian's words didn't get to me, and in more ways than one too. Then we test her. And I just gave you a chance to find out the truth. This is the only way you'd get your answer. It'd been a full blown day since we had that conversation, but our conversation still hadn't left my mind. If anything, his words echoed loudly in my ears, over and over again and no matter how hard I tried to push them out, it felt like I was only making it easier for them to come back into my mind again. I hadn't slept properly, and if it meant anything, I still hadn't gone to see Kiara. After her second slip up, the atmosphere turned tense, and awkward. Luckily for the both of us, I didn't hang around to make it any more worse. While that sounded like the best thing to do then, I hated that it now came with so many doubts and what not. Test her. Break her. Last night was thick with silence, but my mind refused to re
