My heart leaped for joy. I was supposed to be angry at him, but that act alone melted my heart. I wasn't sure if he was going to apologize for what he did, but that didn't stop my happiness. I opened my window and after flashing him a smile, I started climbing down. I wasn't a werewolf, but I still had some of its ability, which included climbing. I got close to the floor and when I finally jumped down, everything changed. Austin was gone. My house was gone. I was in the middle of nowhere. In the woods! I panicked as I looked around, trying to understand where I was. I stood up from where I was bent. “That's the bitch get her!" I heard a familiar voice and my heart stopped. That was Cecelia, Phoebe's follow buddy. What the fuck was going on. I didn't wait for them to get to me. I started running as fast as I could. “Kira come back here!" I heard and I gasped. Kira? I wasn't Kira. I was...... My mouth dropped when I stared at myself. My hair was back to its red color. I was inde
I was Astonished. I couldn't understand the cause of it. I took a napkin from my car and wiped it off. The thought of going to tell Rebecca came to my head, but I thought against it instantly. She was already worrying about Mirabel. I would just be an addition to her problem. I didn't want that. After concluding to suck it up, I entered my car and started it. I was certain it was nothing. ***** Ken's POV I stared at those remorseful eyes as she approached me, but that didn't take away the grimace I had on my face. Mirabel was probably feeling guilty due to how I denied all her allegations. I was a coward, I had to admit. I should have owned up to what I had done, but I didn't want her to see me as a monster. She could hate me all she wanted, but I didn't want to be a beast to her. She was the only person who didn't see me as one. As I brushed past her, it felt like I was being poked in my heart by a needle. The universe was surely testing me. I kept seeing her everywhere even tho
Mirabel's POV “Ken!“ I called out to Ken who walked past me like I didn't matter. His strides were very fast, but I was able to meet up with them.Practically, I was shameless. He ignored me earlier, but here I was begging for his attention. You couldn't blame me. I just needed someone to talk to. I had already lost Austin. I couldn't bear for him to do the sameThat was selfish of me. I was playing around with both of them and that was because I was scared of being alone. I had that undying feeling of wanting to feel loved.“Stop following me" he snapped at me.“Can you at least hear what I have to say?"“I am not interested," he continued walking.“Well you can't blame me. I was made to believe you were the one who attacked me. Austin is my mate and he can't lie to me"He stopped walking and turned to look at me. “Austin is your mate?" he asked and I gulped. He stared inside my soul, so hard that it made me shake.I just spilled out something that wasn't even true. I sighed. “no he
My eyelids felt heavy as I opened them. The brightness of the room attacked them and I shut them back again. After some time, I opened my eyes once more and looked around.It took me almost a minute to figure out where I was. The drip fixed in my hand and the clothes I was putting on, made me realize I was at the hospital.It was then I remembered I had fainted. The door to the ward opened and Rebecca walked in. She looked drained. It wasn't hard to tell from the dark circles that had formed under her eyes and how she had suddenly aged overnight. I instantly felt bad for her. This was the reason I didn't tell her about the nosebleed that morning“My God Mirabel, you are awake. I was so worried about you”. I watched as tears gathered in her eyes. "Are you alright now?”Apart from the throbbing pain I felt in my head, I was doing perfectly well."I'm fine mum” I tried to speak without groaning in pain because the pain I felt was excruciating.The moment those words left my lips, the doo
Kira's POVI found it hard to believe when he blurted out the words. “I am a vampire, Lindsay. A blood-sucking beast" I kept quiet for a while. I had no idea those things even existed. I heard they were extinct.His eyes were different as he looked at me. It was softer and remorseful like he had done something very terrible. I wasn't even judging him. I was just stunned that they existed. I had met werewolves, witches, and wizards, but I had never met or seen a vampire. No wonder I found it very hard to decipher him. He was like a closed door I couldn't find the keys to. “You don't have to say anything," he added when he realized how much I struggled with that information. “Now you know I am not good for you"“What is that supposed to mean?"“We are more like animals Mirabel. We feed on blood and we can't control it" “You told me they don't exist" I finally found my words and that was the first question I could ask.“Did you expect me to spill out such a huge secret like that?"“I
Austin's POV.It was hard to take lectures and at the same time, think hard about something else. The news was everywhere. A girl passed out in the foyer. That girl was Mirabel and I couldn't stop thinking about her.I wanted to see her but I was drawn between staying and not going because I didn't want her to get the wrong idea. And actually going to know how she was feeling.“Are you even listening?" Derek asked, snapping me back from my thoughts“The lecturer is teaching, why the fuck would I listen to you?"“You are not listening to any of us"I sighed "True. “What's the problem?"“I feel suffocated. I'm leaving" I couldn't stand it anymore. I was going to go and see her. I pretty much damned all the consequences.I left class and so did Derek. I could hear his footsteps behind me, running to meet my fast strides.“Okay what was that all about?" he asked.“If you weren't so sure, why did you come with me?"“I was curious and that class is boring as hell. Talking to you was an esc
Ken's POVI thought I had had enough that day until I came back home and found Bella sitting on my couch. She knew the perfect way of getting on my nerves. The exhausting part was how good she was at it.“Bella how the fuck did you get in?"“Marcus is back" She stood up from the couch she was comfortably sitting on and walked towards me.“That doesn't answer my question” I kept a stern look on my face as I addressed her.“Are you kidding me? Our major problem is in LA and you are worried about me getting into your apartment?"I pointed my index finger at her. “You led him right to us"“How is this my fault?"“The order was simple. Stay in Ohio. you just had to show up here" I snapped at her and she rolled her eyes at me.“It's crazy down there. I needed a break from everything. I wanted to come back”“And you decided to bring Marcus along with you?"She glared at me."You know I won't purposely do something like that. Marcus is just smart as hell. I didn't even know he was in Ohio. May
Kira's POVI watched as Rebecca's lips curved into a smile. I didn't know what the amusement was all about until she parted her lips and announced. “The doctor said you are free to go"“So soon? I thought he said I needed to stay for another week or so?"“Well apparently, the nurse ran some tests and realized nothing is wrong with you after all"I was taken aback. No wonder I haven't been feeling any pain in my head lately. But how was that possible? It felt too good to be reality. Then I remembered Ken and his promise to heal me. But he didn't even do anything. We talked throughout his stay with me. Not that I was expecting him to lay his hand on my head like a pastor or something. I just didn't see him do anything.“This is great news. So I am not dying after all" I squealed and Rebecca frowned at me."You weren't dying. The doctor just said you should slow down the stress and all”“That's great, so when am I leaving"?“The doctor should be here any moment from now. They did say I s
