Hector’s POVIt was not easy slithering past men who were on the lookout to capture me and take me to Max no doubt but I knew it would be better for me to go on my own to confront Max. He would act a bit less foolishly than if he had a crowd, then he would want to make an example of me and I know that my wolf will lose control and I will beat the crap out of him. If that happens that would only make people truly believe that I killed Alpha Jax and is now coming for his son. As far as I was concerned, Alpha Jax cannot be dead. Max is playing games again and I know this is just one of the most stupid games he’s played so far. When I got to the cellar, no one was there, not even Aidan. I was thinking about where Max could be when a young man spotted me, he was going to raise an alarm but I sped off to where he stood and snapped his neck. I didn’t really go hard with the neck-snapping so he wi wake up eventually. The way he kept looking Eastward where Alpha Jax’s house was, I believed
Kayla’s POVFrom the moment Hector left the house and locked us inside, we stayed inside quietly inside each of our rooms. No one was talking to the other and no one left even though they have their keys. I couldn’t sleep and I didn’t have a phone to take my mind off of what was happening so I kept thinking back about how these past few weeks since I left Redwolf has been for me. Could my life be worse than it is here? I mean, I’ve only been in school for a day and it was cut short because of that damn thing called a dew. But the first few moments were okay. If I were in Redwolf they’d all be ridiculing me because Aidan rejected me and chose to be with April. As I lay on the bed thinking, the most unexpected thought came through my mind. “ What if Aidan rejected you because of the Mate Slayer? What if he never wanted to leave you?” I instantly became irritated by the thought and decided to clear that thought out of my mind. Aidan rejected me because he wanted to reject me, there wa
Kayla’s POV “ I love you, Kayla,” Hector said, his eyes filled with so much emotion as the words came out of his mouth. This meant so much to me because I have never in my life had someone say that to me. I didn’t know that I was crying until he wiped the tear off my cheeks and brushed his lips against mine softly. I unconsciously parted my lips and his tongue slid in, entwining with mine and sending shivers down my body as we both kissed each other desperately. Every touch left me wanting more, the way he pulled me so close that my breasts pressed against his firm body, the way his fingers tickled my scalp as he fisted them into my hair, the way his lips took mine delicately and then roughly just the way I wanted it to. I knew that Hector is the one for me – the one I choose, but it wouldn’t be cool for us to have sex the day he loses a father figure. So instead, we shared one last kiss before I did something I’d never done before, I sang Hector to sleep and watched him sleep like
Kayla’s POVI was indeed surprised by how Max allowed Sapphire and Carl to speak to each other while he stood outside talking with Hector. When they were done talking, Carl left and since I had very good hearing I could hear him telling Max that he is grateful to which Max said nothing. He immediately entered the room and Sapphire’s smile disappeared. “ Please…can I talk to Sapphire.” He said with painstaking slowness. I bet it hurt like a bitch for him to say the word, please. “ Sure you can, she’s right here,” Aubrey said but he shook his head and said,” alone” “ Sapphire…are you okay with this?” Azalea asked. Sapphire took in a deep breath and nodded. We all gave Max a warning look before exiting the room. “ Hey,” Hector said the minute I came out with Aubrey and Azalea, the next thing I know he was kissing me senseless and I lost myself in his arms, kissing him and forgetting that I wanted to listen in on Sapphire and Max’s discussion, just in case he does anything stupid. *
Kayla’s POVSapphire came out of her room fuming with anger. Just then Max’s mother started to climb up the stairs whilst asking excitedly for the next Luna. I quickly went up to Sapphire and tried to help her calm down which she did quite easily and just in time, she smiled at Max’s mother and lowered her head in greeting. “ Aren’t you one of her sisters? Come on let’s go. The ceremony is about to start.” She said to me and I smiled and nodded at her. This woman’s husband died yesterday and she’s being all smiles today, that was very suspicious. Too suspicious in fact. But since they said he died a peaceful death, I decided not to read meaning into anything. We stayed in a tent outside just a stone's throw from the open field where Max’s father’s funeral was to be held as well as Max’s new reign as Alpha. Considering how much Hector has told me about Max being so ambitious about being Alpha, Max looked very upset and unenthusiastic about everything. He was dressed in loose white
Kayla’s POVPandemonium broke out amongst those of us present as the light shined over Hector. But the confusing thing was that the light was still over Max but it wasn’t as intense as it was over Hector. “ I believe this ceremony has been shifted. We should go.” Someone said from behind us. We turned around and it was Theresa. I didn’t think that she would come since she was never in support of Max and Sapphire’s mate bond.Sapphire was relieved, she quickly left with us as the crowd dispersed while Dane talked with the former members of Alpha Jax’s council. I didn’t know what all this meant but I hoped to hear an explanation. “ Guys, what is going on?” I asked when we got home. Since it was Theresa’s home we were being free with each other, knowing that no one can spy on us. “ It seems that Jax had a son with another woman before he even met me or Max’s mother,” Theresa said, sitting on the couch and looking completely lost in thought. “ And Hector is that son?” Aubrey asked an
Kayla’s POV“ Where the hell have you been? How could you even take supplies!” Theresa yelled at Sapphire as she finally joined us in the bush path where we were waiting for her. “ It doesn’t help that you’re yelling mom,” Sapphire said dryly before she joined us in the car. She sat beside me and her hands lightly brushed mine, making me shocked at how cold her body was. Even her breathing was uneven. She was afraid and tense but she didn’t look it. “ So where are we going?” Azalea asked for the thousandth time. Hector sighed and said, “ Why don’t you tell us, Sapphire?” Sapphire froze and looked at me before she looked out the window, saying nothing. “ Sapphire. I know you saw him. Your heart is beating like crazy and your breathing is so uneven it sounds like your lungs aren’t working.” “ What does breathing have to do with lungs?” she muttered and he chuckled at her ignorance. Wow, she really doesn’t know any biology, does she? I said to myself. “ He said I should give you th
Kayla’s POV“ Hector…” I said, when I saw him sitting at what seemed like a high table of some sort. He was seated with a very beautiful woman, her hair was black, long, thick and curly like his. The first thought that came to my mind was she must be his sister but when I looked closely, her eyes were silver like Hector’s. “ Drew, who is this girl?” the woman asked, looking at me from head to toe while he pulled me with him as he walked towards her table. The aroma of meat and bread made me so hungry as I walked past all the occupied tables. “ She is...Drew started to say as he looked at me and probably wondered in his mind, “ Who is she really?”“ She’s Kayla Baynes” Hector said, getting up from his sit and moving so quickly to meet me. “ Kayla, are you alright? Drew, why does she look so pale? You didn’t place her in that terrible room did you?” he asked, staring daggers at the man while he wrapped his hands around my shoulder, pulling me closer to him. He too was covered in a sw
