Kira's POVIt's been a month since the Blackstone pack got rid of its plotters, a month since Elizabeth died. Leila and Declan have since been locked up in the dungeon awaiting their trial. There was no need to hurry it up, it's not like they would ever get an escape from there. Their sentence would be judged based on their two times attempted murder and plotting against the throne. I wish them nothing but the best in their forthcoming trial. After the deed, Xander got to investigate on the fraud Elizabeth had engaged in while she ruled as the CEO of his father's company. It didn't take long before he got his rightful position back and took over his inheritance. I was thrilled for him, as for Mira, I had to have her released. She didn't really do much, even though she had kidnapped me. I didn't need to tell the pack council that. Uncle John kept to his promise and has been visiting from time to time. He and my mum seem to enjoy spending time together playing Scrabble. I'm glad she
Chapter OneKira’s POV"Well, well, well," a tiny feminine voice called out from within the darkness of the forest. My heart beats increased as it began pumping a lot of blood into my arteries due to how close the voice sounded to me. My feet suddenly became cold and I moved my eyes in a circular motion around the length of the environs to see what it was that called out to me. All I could see was darkness. Terrifying darkness that pierced into my soul. The light coming from the moon was not even that bright either as it was not a full moon. My ever-vibrant wolf, Ayla, became mute.The dry leaves on the soil rustled noisily the moment I took a step backwards, initially scaring me."Don't move!" the voice called out to me again, but this time in a commandeering tone of voice . Her voice sounded so fierce that it made me shiver momentarily. My sharp ears were able to pick up the squeaks from the rats in the forest. I could also smell a body.'Human? A dead body?' Different questions
Chapter TwoKira’s POVI listened feeling sharp pains of betrayal clawing at my bleeding heart."You have the guts to steal the one I love, Leila," my lips shook as they moved. Declan wrapped his hands around Leila's waist and I couldn't feel my body. The continuous pounding of my heart refused to stop. It was as if my heart was about to explode without me knowing."Declan was never yours. Cut off all these drama," Leila snapped. “You’re only finding out now because you were too naive to see in the first place.” My heart throbbed painfully in my chest as they literally groped the other.This is torture. I could see it now. All these while I didn't see it. Or maybe I did and just didn't read meaning into it because I never thought my best friend, the one I took as my sister would stab me in the back this way. The hurt was too much.I drifted my eyes away from them as tears rolled down my cheeks. I couldn't believe Leila could do this to me. “Declan and I have been dating way before I

Chapter FourKira's POVMy phone lit up again and I saw a message from Leila, my best friend. She had already given me five missed calls in a short period of time."Let's meet at our regular ice cream spot. I have someone you should meet. -Leila."I got up from where I was, kissed my father on both cheeks, grabbed my bag and checked my dress, making sure I didn't look anything short of pretty.I heard him grumble under his breath about something relating to me but I ignored it and instead refocused my attention to the beeping phone in my hands while I strode out of the room.This was exactly how Leila made me meet Declan two years ago, or sorry on this day but the last time I lived it. At first, my body froze; I hesitated for a while as I didn't want any mistake to repeat itself but I quickly shook it off by deciding to go with the flow just so that I do not mess things up this time.***Declan was beaming with all smiles when I arrived at the ice cream spot. His smile had been what
KIRA'S POVIt shouldn't happen, not again, not this time that I feel I can make things different. It shouldn't happen please! I bit hard on my nails and gnarled, rushing after my mom.She started to search for her phone as soon as she got into the room, clearing out her dresser in haste not minding if anything got destroyed in the process. "Mom.." I called in fear, "let me call him–""He won't answer it, he's enough that he's mad at you" she ripposted, throwing her hands everywhere in search of her phone. "I can't find it, where did I keep it?"My eyes were filled with tears and were so blurry that I couldn't see clearly. I fluttered my eyes at her as soon as an idea occurred to me."Let me call your phone so we know where it is," I didn't know why I didn't think about this.She nodded her head continuously and stared at me interestedly, I brought out my phone from my purse which I had with me, clicked on the dial and we listened with rapt attention to capture where the sound would c
Kira's povI didn't know when I let out, "try to shift it might help!""I wish I could, Kira but I'm so weak. I can't even feel my feets" she said weakly, tears rolling down her cheeks.Yeah. I pushed my lips into my mouth and muffled a breath. Why didn't I think about that, she had bruises all over her body there's definitely no way she would ever shift. What should I do?"Can't you just try? Ther-there's no harm in trying you know.." I couldn't believe I was saying that but that was all that could come up in my tiny head at that moment.She wriggled her face in pain, squirming and twisting her body as she tried to shift into her wolf."Ooouuu…… " she let out a howling cry, her body twisted unnatural and her fingers bent backwards, her claws spooking out of her nails.My eyes glimmered as I watched her shifting but they soon watered, the glimmer fading away."What happened?" A sudden gasp braced my lips."I c-can't! I told you, I'm weak. I can't shift into my wolf Kira–" her voice b
Kira's POVMy body ached as I tried to move, I blinked several times to get a hang of my sight. The whole room blurred my vision. My throat dry and itchy as I tried to swallow.It took me a long while to finally hold down a memory of what had happened to me. I jerked up hurriedly, feeling a electric string of pain shoot through my entire body."Move with caution." Ayla warnedI hissed ignoring her; where in the world is everyone? I was the only one in the white painted room, which is obviously an infirmary. If I am in the infirmary ward, then my dad and Amber are definitely around somewhere. The moment my legs touched the ground, one would think it was an alarm that had alerted everyone around. "Hold still please, how are you feeling?" The doctor inquired.I tried to shake my aching head slowly, "yes, I am fine. Where is my dad and my sister?" I inquired."I need to ensure you are fine first, let me run a quick check on you." He insisted.Whoever this doctor is, he is really getting
