ALPHA ZEUS' POVMy eyes were grim and rusty from the anger that boiled in my body. I sat in the back of my black SUV with an expression that screamed a great deal of impatience. I stole a glance at the screen of my watch. It was already about fifteen minutes before it was eight. "Get this shit going faster!" I yelled at the driver. "Sorry, Alpha," he said in a fearful tone. "I'm already speeding more than necessary for safety." I smirked at him. "Are you trying to school me here?" I asked in a thick tone. "I'm sorry. I won't do it again." In that instant, he got the wheels rolling faster. I winded down the glass and had the fast blowing breeze brush against my contorted face. I was boiling and greatly needed a way to cool off. I shut my eyes and tried to coop off. But it was not working out. The moment I shut my eyes, other strange thoughts started to go through my head. What could they have talked about? I could not stop wondering what Maicon had been saying to Kayla that made
ALPHA ZEUS' POVKayla? Why would he want to talk about her? I felt my hand almost slipping away from his collar. But my curiosity kicked in. I grabbed him tightly again. "What do you mean to say?" I queried in a thick tone. I hated the fact he even mentioned her name. "I can't talk if you keep acting this way. Everyone will think we are about to have a fight, Zeus." "I don't give a damn what anyone thinks. I just need to hear what you have to say." "Hmm," he exhaled heavily. "Get your hands off me first. Then, I will say what I have to say." I glared into his eyes for a good while before letting go of his collar. "Please, have a seat," he said and settled down. I hesitantly did the same thing. I was on edge. All I needed was to hear the reason for which he had to mention her name. "I'm listening," I said. "Spill everything you have to say." "Do you want a drink?" He asked. I shut my eyes and opened it. A new flash of anger was in them. "Are you just going to beat about the b
KAYLA'S POV "What if you choose someone else as your Luna?" I suddenly asked. The traces of excitement that were on my face slowly faded into the dark, as a wave of anxiety blew across me. I was suddenly scared of what could happen. Diego's face dissolved into a confused pool. "What?" He asked. "What if I choose someone else? Are you kidding me?" I shook my head. "No, I'm not. I do not know why I feel scared about us, Diego. What if you change your mind?" He lowered his head, trying to create eye contact. "Listen, Kayla," he placed his hands on my shoulders and heaved a sigh. "I will only leave you for another and clearly, there is no other person in the picture. If there is any other person, the picture will be ruined. It's you, just you, Kayla." I said nothing in response to his words. Diego and I have been together for a long while. He is my mate and has the key to my soul. I had no idea why I was suddenly set on edge over the upcoming event. Tonight, he will be cho
KAYLA'S POV It has already been a couple of days since the incident. But I could not endure the pain. Diego hurt me beyond what I could imagine. He didn't mean it. He couldn't have ordered them to throw me out like that. As much as I forced myself not to believe all of it was real, I knew it was. The grin, that devilish grin, that was on the face of Adire as I was being hoisted away played with my thoughts. No matter how much I tried, I could not get rid of the pain. I made up my mind. I would go and confront Diego. I needed answers to all the questions in my head. A few moments later, I was striding through the hallway that led to Diego's chamber. My heart knew no peace. The last time I was in this pack, it was hurtful and heartbreaking. But this time, there's anger and pain in me. "Diego…you can't get away from this," I muttered. However, the closer I got, my ears began to pick strange signals— moans, groans of pleasure, heated breaths— all were coming to my ears. What the
KAYLA'S POV I lay almost unconsciously on the bed. From the moment I slept off the previous night, I was yet to get up. Still asleep on the bed, tiny rays of the sun crept through the glass windows and made their way to my eyes. Slowly, my eyes opened. I tried to move my body but it would not budge. I felt paralyzed. When I opened my eyes, I felt a pound in my head. It ached so badly that I felt my head would eventually fall off. I must have had a lot to drink last night. "Mmmh!" I stretched my length on the bed and pushed myself up. That was when I saw the man lying beside me. At that point, I felt my heart skip. What did I get myself into last night? In that instant, I broke off the paralysis holding me down. The sudden movement caused my head to strain. "Ah," I muttered softly while grabbing my head. When I finally got on my feet and observed properly, it dawned on me I had had my first sex with a total stranger. I had had a one-night stand with a face I had never s
ALPHA ZEUS' POV It was a long night for me. I could feel a crippling tiredness on every part of my body. Well, what was I expecting? Prior to my time as alpha of the darkest moon pack, I had always envisioned what it would be like. Though, I was never for a time in my life the type to be obsessed with power. I was born powerful. And the things I have been through made me mean . Of all alpha kings, my name has always been revered , not just by any average wolf, but by many alpha kings too. The darkest moon pack was known for its ruthless nature. And being an alpha of such a pack was like pouring coals of fire on me. " Hmm!" I let out a tired breath out of my lungs. When I looked around, there was no trace of a lady by my side. Perhaps, she went to wash up . Or was she throwing up? That was one hell of a weird looking girl. I wondered why she had so much to drink. After a few minutes, no sound came from the bathroom. She was definitely gone. I slid off the bed and grabbed my boxer
Kayla’s POV If frustration was a person, then there would be no other person better qualified to have that title than me. Who would have thought that an alpha princess would be in such a messy situation like this? It was a new day. But for a miserable person like me, there was actually no single thing good about the day. I had passed the night in an abandoned complex. While I was there, I had all sorts of thoughts run through my head. What if someone attacked me? Attack? Well, that was far from reality. No one would just attack me. But rape was a very likely thing to happen. There was no doubt I was a pretty young lady. Oh yes, one could say I was in the prime stages of my beautiful walk in life. Though, there was nothing beautiful about my life. Apart from the good look I have, nothing else made sense. And that’s more reason I shudder at the torment I have had to go through in the hands of my stepmother and stepsister. It’s not like I desired anything in particular. Even if I wan
ALPHA ZEUS' POVI could not wait for my entourage to come to a stop before so I could vent my anger on everyone. The luxurious limousine I was in suddenly felt like the most horrifying place to be in. There was nothing I could think of if not the damn bitch I saw with my own eyes. The fact that my men could not even get to her was more of a concern to me. The greatly feared members of the darkest moon pack could not even get hold of a single lady. Damn it! I had no idea I had been breeding weaklings in the pack. When the cars came to a stop inside the premises of my luxury home, I opened the door myself and stepped into the embrace of the morning sun. Oh yeah! This was a perfect atmosphere to break some bones. I shut my eyes and absorbed the heat of the morning. I drew in a long air before finally letting it out. When I opened my eyes, I saw the men assembled right before me. "Who do I have to kill first?" I asked in a fierce but calm tone. No response came from them. Oh yeah, th
