30. Believe
Kai
She knows about my past now. It’s only a matter of time before she resolves to leave and reject me. I thought this would stay buried until I was ready to confess my sin to her, but it looks like the Goddess had other things in store for us.
I peer up at the woman who I keep disappointing at every turn, but instead of finding a look of disgust on her face, there was compassion.
“So this is what Viktor meant about you needing to tell me what happened instead of him.” She says and moves closer to me, taking care to not touch me with her hand, even though I could tell that she was dying to.
“You don’t need to tell me what happened right now. I can see you’re still struggling with it. But please realize that even if you do tell me, I will still be here, okay? You’re my mate and I will stand by you no matter what hides in your past.” She says with that beautiful smile of hers that gets my heart pumping every time.

Caterina Why are they staring at me like that? Did I say something wrong? “What?” I ask, taking a step back, but Kai grabs my wrist and pulls me towards the floor-length mirror in my walk-in. “What’s going on…” I trail off as I catch my reflection in the mirror, realising that my once silver Beta eyes were now shining gold. Moving closer to the mirror, I observe the different colours of my eyes, but as I do, something occurs to me. I look up at Kai. “This eye colour… it’s the same as the woman I met in the woods. Her eyes glistened gold,” I say, remembering how calm I felt when I looked at her. Kai breathes out a sigh and pinches the bridge of his nose. “I have no fucking idea what this could mean,” he says, clearly exasperated by what was happening to me. I wish I knew what the woman in the woods has planned for me, and if she was the Goddess, why choose me for this? I suppose I could wonder until I was blue i

Caterina Wait a minute; my goddess was the fated mate of Kai’s werewolf god? I wasn’t even aware that she was a consort instead of having a consort of her own. Blinking in surprise at his words, Kai chuckles and gestures for me to sit and continue my breakfast. “I would have thought your pack cared about their history as all werewolves do, but it seems that I was sorely mistaken. Your father has run that pack into the ground, and it is a pity too since my grandfather used to have an understanding with the Alpha of the third generation of Sable Hides.” He says, downing the last bit of his coffee. I frown at this. “Is that why my father approached you in the hall?” I ask as I think back to when Kai appeared at the reception, and he nods. “He has been trying to reestablish the old agreement, but after what happened last time, I will not reconsider. You being my mate is the only link I will ever have with the Sable Hide Pack, but

Caterina After Kai says this, he gets up and walks towards Konstantin, who had just entered the building. They converse for a while; then I see him look over at me and nod to Kai before walking away again. Could it be true? Did I see something that has not happened yet? I try to remember the faces of the women in my vision, but it all comes together in a blur, and the images overlap in my head. I hope the Goddess knew what she was doing when she gave me this gift. If it was indeed the Goddess, that is. Kai appears again and holds out his hand for me to take. “Let’s go to my office. Kon has a few ideas.” He says. I take his hand and follow him out, feeling a bit useless that this gift, or whatever it was, was so sporadic and basically unreliable. I thought that when I touched someone’s face, that I could see what they were keeping hidden, but my vision just now has proved me wrong. Now, I might see things about
Alpha Kai 34. Punishment
Kai Caterina gets bolder by the day, and her little stunt earlier just pushed me over the edge. Now, as she stands in front of me feigning innocence, it makes me want to show her exactly the type of person her mate is. “I don’t like repeating myself, Caterina,” I warn, trailing the blunt side of the knife in the valley between her breasts. What I truly wanted to do was tear the entire fucking dress off, but that would have to wait. I don’t want to give her that satisfaction just yet. Her eyes widen at the feel of the knife on her skin, and then I turn it around in my hand. I press the sharp tip against her skin, drawing blood. “Kai, wait… I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to…” she trails off and gasps when I lean down to lick her blood. I then look up at her, flashing my crimson eyes and grinning. “You’re sorry? I didn’t ask for an apology, little wolf; I asked what your punishment should be.” I say, leaning forward, bringing m
Alpha Kai 35. Pyre
Caterina The last time I came to Volkov Estate with Viktor, I learned so much about him and this family. Actually, if it weren’t for Viktor, I would never have found the journals or known how to defend myself. Now we would lay him to rest, the person who grew to mean so much to me. As we drive down that hidden winding road, I look over at Kai. His expression was stern, and his mouth was thin; I’m not sure what this could indicate, but I know that he is struggling with everything. Yes, I lost a good friend, but Kai lost his younger brother, someone he swore to protect. No one can know what he must be going through right now; Konstantin and the rest might, but not the way Kai must be feeling. The guilt will eat him alive. I reach over and place my hand over Kai’s, and he turns his head to look at me. Knowing my words wouldn’t reach him right now, I gave him a small smile - one he tried to return. He faces the road again,
Alpha Kai 36. Prophecy
Caterina “We have never seen this before, and I have had a bad feeling ever since one of our old prophecies came to be: ‘When the moment comes that prey kills predator, the foreign one shall bring forth a union of fated hybrid mates and an age of anarchy.’ This was the death of our Viktor. The rest I was uncertain of until I laid my eyes on your mate and received another prophecy.” She says, then looks at me. I felt a chill in her stare, not coldness or hatred at all, but I had a feeling she knew what would come next. “I don’t understand your prophecy,” Kai says, shaking his head. “Who is the foreign one?” Kaede laughs quietly. “I am surprised that that is what you ask and not who the fated hybrid mates are or what the other prophecy was. You know already, don’t you, Kai?” She says, then walks up to me and places a hand on my forehead. “She has already received gifts, and a shard of Tiarin’s soul is implanted in hers. You know

Caterina As I open my eyes, I am assaulted by a splitting headache and immediately let out a groan. The images are blurred but soon come into focus, and I realize that I am back at the penthouse. Did I fall asleep in the car? The last thing I remember is walking towards the car with Kai's hand in mine. I must have been entirely out of it and drained to have passed out like that. I grab my phone from the nightstand to look at the time: 6 am! I slept the entire evening away! As if to tell me I messed up, my stomach growls in protest, so I get up from the bed only to notice that I was in PJ's. Wait, did Kai change me as well? Smiling, I slip on my fluffy slippers and head downstairs. When I reach the bottom of the stairs, I don't see or hear anything; was anyone home? Shuffling down the hallway, I make my way to Kai's study and raise my hand to knock, but before I could, Kai spoke. "Come in, Caterina." My eyes widen at hi
Alpha Kai 38. Family
Kai After watching how relaxed and calm she was during today's outing, I didn’t want to ruin her peace of mind. I couldn’t bring myself to tell her the truth behind her role in my life; why she was chosen to be my mate and why an enemy pack kidnapped and hid her. She won’t be able to handle all of it in the state that she is in now, so I will tell her everything after I’ve claimed her. When we got back from our trip, she went straight to get in a hot bath then jumped into bed. I think I tired her out today, but that was my aim. She needed to sleep without worry for once… and I needed to get to Konstantin. My brother had some news for me about Caterina’s family, and from what I could tell, it was not good news. So I have Dimitri come over and keep an eye on her while we go to investigate. I must admit that what Caterina said she saw when she touched Dimitri still bothered me. Not only was my younger brother pro saving the world
