Kira's POV"Hey Mirabel" I heard my name from behind and I turned to look behind me.It was Phoebe approaching me with a smile on her face. I found the smile annoying. "Hey" I said, not bothering to hide the contempt in my face. I still hated her and I wasn't also in the mood to have a conversation with anyone. "You haven't been around" I said, stating the fact that I had not seen or heard from her since the last time I saw her."Yeah, I've been caught up with some stuff" "Oh" I said and continued walking while she walked beside me."You seem to be doing very well""Or drained" I corrected."Tell me about it. I feel like my head is going to explode any moment from now""Uhm Phoebe" I interrupted her. "Do you know Ken Davies?"The way she looked at me, I was certain she knew something about him. It was almost as if she was scared of him because I saw fear flash in her eyes. What I didn't understand was why a werewolf would be afraid of a human, except my suspicions were true that he w
Kira's POVI breathed out sharply as I looked at Ken's house. The last time I was here, I was not as scared as I was at that moment. But after seeing how Phoebe was restless after telling me about Ken, it was obvious he was dangerous.The last thing I wanted was trouble because I was human and couldn't protect myself as effectively. Stealthily, I dropped the book at the door and turned to leave, but the door opened and my heart almost leaped out of my body."Ken" I let out a nervous chuckle.He looked down at the book in front of the door and looked back at her."You were leaving?""Not really" I let out a mild laugh. "I was going to come back. I had....""What did Austin tell you?" he asked and I could see the way his face had a glare on it."Like what?" I asked, trying to keep my cool, but I wasn't doing a good job. He was smart and observative, so he could tell I was lying and also uncomfortable.He got down from the platform where he stood and took the book that was on the floor.
Kira's POVThat night, I sneaked in through the window and locked it immediately. As soon as ken left, fear took hold of me. There was always this feeling that something or someone was after my life and I couldn't shake it off.I felt weak in this human body, unable to do anything. I no longer had the zeal to practice my spells because they kept getting worse. What happened earlier was still shocking to me and until I got an explanation for that, I was going to quit my spells.I wanted to stick to my initial motive which was to figure out why this happened and also a way to get back to my body because I felt unprotected and lonely without Austin in my life.******I went out for a Jog the next day to clear my head. Both of my ears were shut with a headset. What I wanted to do was forget everything and just be free, because I had been so tense these last few days.I jogged past a car but didn't pay attention to it at first. I didn't know why, but I suddenly felt the need to look behind
Kira's POV I sat on a seat in the school's boulevard with my head dipped in a book. I was very engrossed in it but stopped reading when someone sat next to meI looked at the person and my heart skipped a beat. It was Austin, sitting very close to me. “You don't seem like the type to read," he said “Oh, I uh... actually love reading a lot. What makes you say that?"“Nothing" he shrugged“You don't like reading"“Was that a question or a statement?"“It can't be a question. I know you too well to ask you about yourself"“I should be scared""But you are not. You must have started believing me” I said, already proud of my progress."There is a possibility of that happening, but that doesn't make it completely sane”I rolled my eyes. "Do you want to know about Kira or not?"“If I didn't want to know, I wouldn't be here“I was on... We used to be mates. You loved me and I loved you too. We didn't do almost everything together. Although everyone hated me, you didn't""Why did they hate
Kira's POV.As I slept, someone repeatedly kept throwing stones at my window. Sleeping in the cold was something I loved and I didn't want to stop for even a second. But the constant distortion made me wake up. I was mad.I opened the door of my window to see who the fuck was making that noise. I almost yelled out, but when I saw Christine, I mellowed down. She was dressed in a black dress and her hair was properly spruced up. It made me wonder what the big event was, then I remembered the party she had earlier talked about.Oh crap!“You switched off your phone?“ She looked angry while I looked like a guilty kid with my head slightly popped out my window." I had no idea” That was the only lie that could pop up in my head and it was a stupid one."I'm coming in” “How the fuck are you going to climb with your heels on?" I hadn't finished talking when I saw a heel flying towards me at full speed. I was able to dodge without getting hurt.“Fuck! Christine” I groaned in annoyance as I w
Kira's POV “I thought you were leaving?"Christine asked as she saw me approaching where she sat.“I guess I'm stuck with you after all."“ You won't regret it" she beamed, but I rolled my eyes at her. “would you like?" she stretched a bottle of wine to me.“No, I'm fine" After getting threatened, I needed to be as alert as possible. Getting drunk was a no-no. I was going to survive this night as long as I stayed away from Xavier and also mind my business.“Hey, there pretty" I heard from behind me and I turned to look at the person already pissed.“Fuck off"I glared at the blonde guy who scowled at me before leaving.“Be nice" Christine frowned at me, but I didn't care. I was having such a wonderful sleep, but I was dragged to a party where my life was on the line and I was expected to just be cool with it.My phone vibrated from my purse and I brought it out. It was a text from an unknown number.“If you want to know everything about Ken, come to the school's foyer"I looked at the
Ken's POV I staggered to my house that night. I had healed, but I was still exhausted. The hatred I had for myself was immense. I almost hurt her. But what was she doing in school at that time? She was supposed to be at the party.When I smelled her blood, I went insane. I lost all atoms of reasoning I had in my body and I rushed to her. I was desperate to get the taste of her blood. The self-control I had been learning to stop me from hurting humans went out the window.I didn't know what would have happened if Austin didn't come to save her. I wasn't myself.I was cursed. I couldn't love her. I was a beast and loving her meant continuously hurting her. That was my definition of love.I dragged my feet up the stairs to my room. I opened the door of my room and walked in.There I saw it, the unfinished drawing I had of her. I ran my hand through it. Maybe I should have never met her because she was driving me crazy, making it hard for me to go with my initial plan of staying away fro
Kira's POVI raised my hand to knock on the door. My hand felt stiff for the first few seconds. It was due to the nervousness I felt. I wasn't supposed to feel that way, but I did.After multiple trials, I finally succeeded in bringing my hand to the door. I knocked multiple times and waited for door to openIt didn't take long before the door flung open and my eyes met with a furious-looking Ken. The moment he saw me, his eyes softened.“What are you doing here?" he asked. The tone of his voice gave off panic.“I Uhm..." I searched my head for an appropriate answer. I was blank because his intense gaze was kept on me, preventing me from speaking. “Came to check on you" was the only word that could make its way out of my lips."I am fine” he tried to shut the door in my face, but I was quick to stop him from doing so."Mirabel please leave” He begged. He looked disturbed and restless. “Why what's wrong?" I asked, confused. I had barely said anything and the last quarrel we had wasn
