Killian's POV It was another day and my Beta was around the corners of my room, sensing I had something up my sleeve. I needed to prepare at least five hundred warriors from my pack to attack Hades' pack. That was about seventy percent of my pack but I didn't mind. As long as I get Brielle, I don't mind losing warriors. Maybe not anymore. "What are you trying to do?" My Beta stopped to ask, his arms folded across his chest. For some minutes, I didn't say a word as I thought about what would serve him well for trying to monitor the Alpha of the pack. "Back off, so you won't regret it," I said and walked away. As I entered a mb empty room to think about how I was going to go about the attack and the preparation, I saw him seated there, waiting for me. I didn't need to ask if he was a vampire or a Spirit. There were many ways to get inside the room. He could have run and entered here through other doors. That must be the case. "Don't get in my way. You will be punished for it. I've t
Killian's POV I needed a lot of ideas on how I was going to intrude into Hades' pack and seize Brielle. Even if I wouldn't be able to seize Brielle, I would work for the pack till I'd have a great relationship with her. Kidnapping her by then wouldn't be as difficult as it was, now. My warriors seemed concerned about my expression as they questioned me to know what was wrong with me. They pulled me to themselves and I sat on the mere ground in the center of them all while we brainstormed ideas on how to intrude on his pack Eventually, I was the one that suggested the idea we were going to harness. That's why I didn't want them to think of an idea for me at first. "What about I dress like those rogues, join them, and get into the pack to help with the cement being used to construct the bridge?" I asked. "That's a nice idea. I'm wowed," one said and gulped before resuming the speech, "but how do we get the same garment as theirs." "One of you must be wearing something that looks
Killian's POV I maintained composure as I stood right in front of Hades, my sworn enemy. I could see the desire burning in his heart, to destroy me immediately. His me were right behind him, waiting for permission before striking. "Come on. Do it. Coward." I puffed, knowing fully well he'd be very foolish to spare my life again. "When next I see you close to my pack," he said, his tone as menacingly silent as ever, "I'll kill you with my bare hands. Now leave." Using his Alpha tone, he ordered again, "Leave. Now!" The Alpha tone wasn't working on me but since my men had fled for their lives and must have returned to my pack, I deemed it fit to leave as well but it would be humiliating to do so. "I have one request to make." I plainly said as he sighed deeply and responded, "Go ahead and do quick. No time should be wasted on a scumbag." "Just kill me. Murder me right here and let's end it all. We both know I'm looking for Brielle and she's right there with you. You won't let me
Brielle's POV The moon goddess had shown me great favor by retracing my steps back to Hades' pack. He had made many arrangements already, including but not limited to organizing a room that was close to his, where many maids resided to work for me. He had locked me up with chains bound to the bed for many hours now and my fingers hurt. Though I wanted to complain, but I knew it was for the best. If I didn't explore what was lurking around the pack dungeon many days back, he wouldn't have undergone those series of torture by Killian. I could still sniff Killian's scent around this pack and just when I assumed he'd come with his warriors to fight his way into this pack, Hades creaked the door and entered, locking it behind. He leaned on it, and heaved a deep sigh of relief like someone who just escaped from a tough battle. "How's the construction going? Are you guys done now?" My weak voice sounded in the room. "Killian was found again," he said, as he came towards the bed. He sat
Killian's POVAs I sat down in my room, the thoughts of my loss sinking in and the brutal injuries I had sustained from trying to get to Brielle, a thought dropped to my mind and that was about mainly tracing the reasons of why I wasn't able to get Brielle in the first place.My wolf informed me about several reasons but I wasn't patient enough to outline his suggestions. I rather chose my belief and assumed it was true.I called to my Beta now that he had been freed and he slowly bowed as he got in. He stood right in front of me while I rose to my feet and sat on my bed."What do you think is the real cause for being weak, compared to Hades?" I asked, concern etched on my face."You're not weak, Alpha." He retorted and forced a smile to his chin. I knew he was trying to make me feel better and feel more of myself but I wasn't feeling motivated at this point."Then what am I? I've not been able to catch up with Hades since the last time he escaped. I've pursued him well in times past
Killian's POVI almost drew my signature in one of those boxes provided when I reread the terms and cifmidions. I beckoned to my Beta who came over, and shook his head in disapproval at the statement written there.It was about him being the Alpha of our pack when we unite, and me being the second Beta while his own Beta would be the first Beta. Actually, two drivers wouldn't drive a car, so there can't be two Alphas ruling a pack. Why did I consent to this in the first place?I heaved a deep sigh as I called his attention to the statement and there was guilt written all over his face. He also knew I wouldn't agree with that term and condition but he could have assumed that I would skip and just sign in all the spaces provided."I can't do this, I'm sorry," I said and canceled all the signatures drawn with the pen. I returned it to him as his guards blazed with fury, trying to control themselves. They felt I could have left the already drawn signature as-is. But it was better to cance
Hades' POVToday made it a month ago that I was able to save Brielle from the deadly hands of Killian. Even the first four letters of his name suggested his disposition.We were in bed and I slowly opened my eyes as I saw her sneak out, not heading out of the room but walking towards my private kitchen. She needed to make some cool breakfast for me in bed.My cheeks flushed as I awaited her actions this morning. I shut my eyes again and snapped them open when she nudged me. There was a tray containing glass cups of tea and many other beverages. She told me to sit up and take them in as they would boost my energy for the day.I wondered what was especial about this day, but I maintained composure and downed the content before I remembered that I was supposed to ask her to drink with me."Today is the day I'll reclaim you as my Luna," I informed her, making my decision instantly. While we pulled ourselves into a light hug, I sank into my Beta's mind link, informing him about the update.
Killian's POVAs we entered the building, I realized it was a well furnished one. But a burning question dropped in my mind - why was this great building in the middle of the woods? Who built them? Did the builders have to walk miles before doing their daily job?But the rumination was short-lived as Jade nudged me and I came back to reverie. I sighted the magician and he had all these chains bound to his neck with some big books on the shelves and across the living room, and the rest of his rooms.I saw lanterns and some olden equipments places at the corridor and the hallway. The fact remained true - he was trying to hide his identity from any nearby person. The front of his house wasn't painted or furnished well but the inside spoke volumes.Certainly, he didn't want any rogue to locate the building but rogues weren't the ones to mind a great building or a dilapidated one. I wasn't the only one thinking this way, as Jade nudged me again and spoke a few words to my ears."You can se
