CAIN POV
“ Don’t. PLEASE DON’T. HE IS MY BROTHER. ” Miracle screams out, grabbing my attention.
I leave his neck and turn him around to make him face me.
It’s…Impossible.
I feel dumbfounded after I see his face. It’s really the supposedly dead future Alpha of Crescent Moon Pack.
Matthew.
Miracle’s older brother.
He tries to attack me, but I dodge. I grab his neck and twist it enough that it snaps.
He is a werewolf turned Vampire. He won’t die with the twist of the neck. He will just remain unconscious for a day.
“ NO. N – NO. WHAT DID YOU DO? ” Miracle seems to have forgotten all about her own pain as she watches the Hybrid’s body hitting the ground.
Guess, it’s more messed up than I originally thought.
Shaking my head, I approach Miracle who is hysterically trying to crawl toward the unconscious hybrid. Sh
CAIN POVI carry her to the bathroom and sit her down on the basin counter before running a warm bath for her.She looks to be lost in a trance, her expressions sour.After preparing the bath, I come forward to pick her up when she shrinks away, sudden fear shining in her eyes.I grit my teeth and pull my arms down before stripping myself off my pants and boxers.Standing completely toward her, I step forward again. No matter how much she tries to resist, I get rid of my shirt that she is wearing.After stripping her naked, I hoist her up and land her on her feet beside the bathtub.I step inside first and sit down in the tub as she watches me with her fear filled eyes.Lifting my hand, I ask for her hand silently and understanding the gesture, she places her hand in mine.I help her in the bath. She sits down between my legs, her muscles stiff and her body shrinking.“ Miracle. ” I ca
MIRACLE POVCain came for me and brought me back with him.It’s after a week that I finally sigh in relief and let my mind rest because no matter what Cain does to me personally, he won’t let someone else hurt me.This is a strange trust I have in him but I still trust him to protect me against everyone, even if he hates me.To think about it, he is acting so caring towards me that it’s starting to scare me now.He brought me back. He looked after me. He pleasured me and now, he is holding me like he can never let go of me.This makes me suspicious of his intentions, but I am still grateful that he helped me go through the traumatic phase.He didn’t leave me alone.‘ Don’t. PLEASE DON’T. HE IS MY BROTHER. ’ My own voice echoes in my ears as I recall a memory which is more like a piece of my hallucination.“ I imagined something pathetic, Cain. ”
MIRACLE POVIs it just me or did me and Cain just jump from level one to level ten in one clean attempt?He gets up from the bed and his hand coils around my waist to pull my naked figure close to his body.His eyes stare down into mine, searching for all emotions while I do the same.“ This is…Suspicious. ” I can’t help, but forget my carnal desire for a moment and point out the fact.“ This is really suspicious. ” He nods his head, a hint of amusement present in his tone.Pursing my lips, I shake my head and place my hands on his chest before pushing him away from myself.I look at Cain’s smug face and then I turn my back to him. I start wearing my clothes while he watches me from just a step behind.My mind keeps replaying all that torturous time I had to spend with Elijah, but the reality that Cain saved me…always makes me feel protected and pulls me out of
CAIN POV “ We missed the chance. He is gone, Alpha. ” Xavier reveals as I sigh to myself. I peer at Xavier from across the table, sitting on my chair. He looks like he is regretting not doing a good job at it. “ How is your toe? Healed already? ” I ask him instead of yelling at him for doing such a poor job at keeping an eye on Elijah’s weird ass house. Sometimes, it’s necessary for an Alpha to care about his people more than the enemy or their threats. “ It’s the bone. It hasn’t healed yet but it will heal in a while, Alpha. ” Xavier replies and sits down on the chair across my table. “ I am so sorry for this but he just never made an appearance back there, Alpha. Something is not right here. He took Miracle after going to great extents, but we got her back too easily and not to mention…Elijah was not there. ” He doubts the same thing as me. How did this happen so easily? There is something we are missing – so
MIRACLE POVThere is this feeling irking me out all of a sudden. I want to do something - anything. But what? I don’t know. I think Cain knows though.“ Do you know what’s happening to me, Cain? ” I whisper against his chest, my voice coming out muffled.“ No. I don’t. ” He replies without hesitation.Deep down in my heart, everything tells me that he is lying for sure. Instead of confronting him about this or starting another fruitless argument, I decide to stay silent for my own sanity.I need to fall asleep and stay asleep for as long as I can. Perhaps, I will be alright when I wake up again. This feeling will definitely be gone.“ Take some rest. ” Before I could say anything, Cain speaks out which is surprising but not surprising at the same time.I pull back from him and crane my neck back to take a look a his face. There is a frown resting on his forehead an
MIRACLE POV“ You drank the same potion as me. These are the initial side effects. ” Cain finally reveals to me and I feel like all my doubts are clear.I had a hunch about it already. My worst nightmares turned into reality.“ The violent spree causing something potion? ” I don’t why I am asking this, but I guess I just don’t want to believe that I am going to turn into a monster.I killed him for this in my last life, because there was no cure and there was no way to stop it.What’s going to happen this time? I gulp, my eyes leaving his silver gray orbs and falling to his chest.Am I afraid? Yes. I am honestly afraid this time. Of what?Of consequences. Of my actions. Of this potion running in my blood. Of this yearning for blood. Of the end.“ Something…like that. ” He whispers, still standing by the door as if he is frozen on his spot just like me
CAIN POV ~A Little while Earlier… After Miracle leaves my office, I face Olivia who is looking around silently. “ What did I say about not coming back? ” I hiss at her, my eyes flashing red for a moment. She stops looking around and fixes me with a dead stare. Her eyes are normal in color so it’s safe to say she is not angry. “ I heard you are looking for Amanda. ” A smirk curves up her lips making me shake my head. I don’t even want to know how she knows. Selvia told her probably. Right after I got to know about Miracle’s condition, I looked for Miranda and Amanda. It’s easy to track down Miranda because she stays in my pack’s territory. I already met Miranda half an hour ago and got a potion from her to handle Miracle’s situation. The potion will weaken her abilities. She won’t be able to hurt anyone even if she wants to do it. The potion will put her wolf to sleep and as lon
MIRACLE POV I have another nightmare and it wakes me up. Blood. Screams. Destruction. I think I can still feel all of this even if I woke up from the deep slumber. My head hurts like a truck ran over it and I feel so weird right now. It feels quite empty. Blinking the sleep away from my eyes, I sit up in the bed and look at the wall in front of me. I can’t feel Gia’s presence in me, but it’s not like she is ever with me. My train of thoughts takes a new turn. The potion? What was the potion? Why didn’t I ask Cain about what it was before drinking it? Do I trust him that much? The thought is funny. I am trusting someone who wants to kill me at the first opportunity. Inhaling deeply, I shake my head to myself. I don’t know where all of this is going but I will go with the flow for now. If Cain doesn’t find any cure, I will…reject him and have him kill me so I won’t bring harm to anyone. It
