CHAPTER 90Keleigh’s POVEverything was pitch black, and I was running in the pitch black darkness. I couldn’t see where I was headed too, or whoever was chasing me but all that I knew was that someone was there, desperately trying to find me and catch me. I kept glancing back as I ran, ignoring all the pains I was getting from stumbling on branches of tree. I could smell the scent of the metallic cold blood but it was none of my concern right now. I have to leave. I have to run. I have to find a way from this darkness. Suddenly, I hit a tree, stumbling to the ground in pain. I tried to stand up but my body won’t agree with me, glueing right there on the floor. The steps of whoever was chasing me was getting closer and my heartbeat fastened.“Please, moon goddess please.” I begged, tears rolling down my cheeks already.But it seemed like everything was against me, even the moon goddess herself. The footsteps was getting closer and closer, and there was nothing I could do.“You stupi
CHAPTER 91Keleigh’s POVIt didn’t take a while before the door opened again amidst my sobbing, looking up with teary eyes to meet Ryker and Arnold staring at me with bewildered eyes.Ryker was the first to rush to my bed, his hand reaching to touch my face but was slapped off by mine. I cleaned my face, wiping off the tears before fully facing him. “Why are you here?” I asked coldly.“Why are you crying?” He asked in response. I sank deep into the bed, keeping my hands over the blanket as I stared blankly at the wall. Annoyance and irritation tangled up in me, waiting for any of their words to burst out in anger. “Keleigh, is there….I glanced at him, my eyes cold and he gulped down. I watched him look up to Arnold, exchanging glances as the other sank in the other side of the bed. “Is there anything you'd like to discuss? How are you feeling now?” Arnold said, his hand moving to touch my carefully folded ones. I scoffed out, stepping on the last nerve of my anger, “how am I?” I
Chapter 92Arnold’s POVRoman walked out of the room to meet us, his facial expression already not bearing any good news, aside from the fact that we heard her shout at him. I looked at Ryker who just heaved a sigh and walked away from us. I watched him walk away before turning to Roman, “fetch Selene from the dungeon. Take her to her room.” I said before walking off.All of this was because of her, Keleigh shouting, Ryker walking off, all of it because she was so fucking jealous and didn’t even know when to stop. If she had stopped, none of this won’t have happened and we won’t be having any issues now. I made my way straight to the maid's quarter, giving an order to the head maid to find sacks for me and some maids before proceeding to her room. I called two guards, asking them to follow me. Selene was a girl we met in the pack, she knew how to carry herself, how to do things. She stood out amidst mist of people and she caught my eyes first. I noticed her during a full moon party
CHAPTER 93Roman’s POVI walked out of my room quietly, telling the guards I would be back soon as I shifted and ran into the woods. The events of the day have made me so tired and exhausted that I just wanted to lay down and sleep with someone.Not to talk of Selene already sent out of the house. She was a ticking bomb, one that I won’t want to explode anytime on me which means I needed to see her before she tried anything funny. Thanks to the goddess for telling Arnold to put me in charge of escorting her out of the house, I would have no idea where she would be by now. I shifted back to my human form as I got to the house, the two guards situated in front of the door already approaching me.“I have a message for her from the alpha brothers.” I told them and they nodded in response, allowing me to enter.Selene’s high pitched voice was the first thing I heard as I stepped in, coupled with a shattering sound of a glass breaking. I halted, listening to whatever she was talking about,
CHAPTER 94Roman’s POVJust like the evening when Keleigh just woke up, and Ryker had to come to me to speak to her, I was already in his office early morning again, receiving orders right from him. “Talk to her. I don’t want anything to fail. Make sure she talks to you. This is not a time for you to do whatever you think you want to do, make her talk.” He said.Annoyance and irritation coursed through me; my fist clenching into a ball with my eyes fixated on the floor. “Bring up anything that’ll make her laugh. I want results when you’ll be coming back to me.” I nodded at him as he dismissed me, proceeding to Keleigh’s room. According to some of the guards, she yelled at him again when he went to visit this morning, refused food and everything. And even when Arnold went too, the same happened, more intense than Ryker’s.I knocked on the door softly before turning it open, the sight of her seated in front of the window blessing my eyes. I closed the door quietly, tracing my steps
CHAPTER 85Arnold’s POV“What’s going on here?” I asked, my eyes darting back and forth between the two of them.My beta pulled away from Selene instantly, leaving a reasonable amount of space between the two of them instantly. “Arnold, what are you doing here?” Selene said, approaching me.I eyed her with disdain as I stepped aside from her touch, “meet me outside, Roman.” I said, turning back to leave. “But you just got here, why are you leaving this fast? At least let me entertain you before you leave.” Selene yelled out, her hand pulling the hem of my cloth. I turned to look at her, my eyes cold and fierce as I gave her a warning look. Typical Selene. She didn’t bulge, only stared back at me with a pout on her lips as batting her lashes pitifully, “Let it go now.”“But Arnold,”“Do you want to be sent out today? Are you okay with that?” I cut her off.She freed me instantly, curling her hand to herself. If it were the times when I was hopelessly in love with her, I would have
CHAPTER 97Keleigh’s POVThroughout the day, I could not close my eyes. Even the time I tried to, only one person showed, appeared, and kept on taunting me in the name of Jake. Roman’s words kept pondering on my heart, reminding me of what he has said, reminding me that anytime from now, Jake could break in and I’ll be in extreme danger.I sat down on my bed, staring into space as I just finished washing myself. I wanted to dry my hair but there was nothing in me. I had not eaten anything since morning, not the food they brought, nothing at all.I fell down on the bed, closing my eyes quietly as I let the deep evening breeze blow in through my window. I needed to run, to leave this pack and find somewhere better, somewhere peaceful to restart everything.Where Jake would never find me.Where I won’t belong to anyone.Where no one knew me much enough to be plotting something I had no idea on.And where I won’t have someone trying to constantly hurt me because of someone I never cared o
KeleighI was quite worried as I was walking towards the Alpha when I was suddenly brought to an halt. I turned to look at Roman immediately who held me like we had something going on with us. My brows furrowed immediately.“Be careful.” He started, looking quite worried. “We have a visitor.” He advised. I arched my brows as I tried to figure out what he was talking about by who could tell? It could be one of tactics to deceive me or maybe hold me back. I yanked off my hands off his and walked away.“Regardless, I am going to make you mine.” I heard him say and filled with irritation, I rolled my eyes. There was possibly no way I could listen to hIm. He had nothing good to offer me. I could however not help but wonder if the Alphas got to know what he really had in mind. I could not help but wonder if they knew what he was up to. I however shrugged the thoughts aside and hoped to see the visitor.I returned to my room almost immediately as the Alphas indeed had guests. An Alpha, I pre
