Christine's POVI groaned as I opened my eyes. I had expected to see myself in the same dark place I was in before but this time, I was in a different place entirely. It was just a regular room with proper lighting and a comfortable bed.My mouth felt dry and I felt great thirst. I didn't know why I felt like that. I stood up from the bed with great force. The urge was too strong. I felt thirsty but I didn't want water. I wanted something else, but didn't know what. It felt like I was going insane.I rushed to the door to get out of the room. The room felt hot all of a sudden. I grabbed the doorknob to open the door, but I found it was locked. I almost lost my mind.“Ahhhh" I screamed as I dragged the door handle, trying to force the door open, but it wasn't budging.“let me out!!” I yelled out as I banged my fist hard on the door. The surprising thing was how my hands didn't hurt no matter how hard I hit the door.I groaned in frustration when the door didn't open. I was losing my mi
Kira's POV.Christine was back and I knew that because I was staring at her seated comfortably in class as she looked at the lecturer with keen interest. She didn't give me a call that she had gotten back. She didn't even step out of her locked room when I visited her house. Something was most definitely not right. Since she got back from God knows where, she had been ghosting me like I didn't matter. She attended classes every day, but I hardly got the chance to speak with her because before the class gets over, she would leave the class as fast as possible. I asked myself; was she hiding from me or was she avoiding me? I had done absolutely nothing wrong, so there was no need for that. I had had enough. I was going to speak with her and it was either she punched me in the face or she tells me what is wrong. I waited for the class to be over and I rushed outside, waiting for her yoShe was surely going to get out of the class and she was going to tell me the reason for the childishn
Austin's POVI barged into Alpha Stanley's room and he looked at me in confusion. He stood from where he was seated and walked towards where I was.“You knew Marcus was around, why didn't you tell me?" I asked in annoyance. He knew Marcus was a major threat to the pack and as the beta of the pack, I deserved to know.“He has not done anything out of bound,” he said, but that further pissed me off"Are you being serious? He turned a girl at my school” I blurted out and watched as Stanley's eyes changed from casual to astonished."What do you mean by that?” He asked. He was finally interested in the conversation.“Trust me I know a vampire when I see one" “What if Marcus wasn't the one who attacked her?"“You know there's a probability of that happening"“And who's this girl?"“Christine. She doesn't look human anymore. I bumped into her and she was so uncomfortable. My wolf sensed something different in her”“Well, I can't do anything about it" Stanley shrugged.“What about Marcus?"
Kira's POVI tossed to the other side of the bed. It was cooler than the former, but it soon became hot again. I was uncomfortable and wanted sleep, but I couldn't get it. I didn't have a problem getting sleep, but it felt different that night.Out of frustration, I sat up from my bed. There was a sound by my window and I turned to look at it with my tired eyes. I gasped. There was someone there, but I couldn't decipher who. The person was so swift that the moment I turned, no one was there anymore.I stood up from my bed immediately and wore my flip-flops. I was sure I saw something and I was scared to my bones. Someone had been watching me while I slept.I ran to a part of the room which was far from the window and stood there as my heartbeat increased rapidly. I couldn't help but ask who it was and what the person wanted from me.Slowly, I started slipping through the wall to my window side, carefully not to make a noise. I wanted to take the person by surprise. I got to my window
I opened the car and crawled out of it. Where I was secluded, so it was way better then. It was the best time for Katrina to come, but it was painful as hell. I wanted her, but I didn't know it was going to be this painful. It made sense because I was in a new body that hadn't shifted before.Sweat dripped from my body's blood too. I crawled on the bare hard floor, trying to get to the wood that was just by the side of the road. I wished I had known I was going to get my wolf, I was going to prepare myself for the pain that was going to come from that, but I was taken by surprise.Sand stuck to my body as I crawled until I got to a place suitable enough for me to shift.As if it had been waiting for me to settle down before striking again. I heard another crack, but I didn't know what bone had twisted again. I cried out in pain as I squeezed my eyes shut and clenched my fist, trying my best to fight the pain, but it was impossible.All the bones in my body broke. The skin of my finge
Austin's POV.It was cowardly of me to leave after finding my mate, but I couldn't face her especially when I had called her a liar multiple times. She was once a human, but I was certain my wolf sensed her wolf.How did it happen? The most amusing part was how she turned out to be my mate. I had thought I was going to be mateless for the rest of my life, but Selene then decided to mate me with a girl who I had pushed away so much. Now what? I asked myself. I was so used to being mateless. I had a mate now and I didn't know how to go about with it. If I accepted her as my mate which I had to, then what? I wasn't even sure of her sanity with the multiple stories she kept bringing up about Kira. “You didn't go to classes today?" I heard and turned to look at Derek who made his way to where I was seated on the boulevard."I did" I replied bluntly. I canceled all my classes for the day when I found out the girl I disliked so much was my mate. I was down, but Huxley my wolf, was too deli
Christine POV.“Then let me die" I spat out in anger before turning to leave. Tears gathered in my eyes as I walked away. He was right. If I continued this way I was going to die. I kept getting weaker and weaker day after day. That strong thirst still lingered in my mouth. My voice had even gotten more gravelly. I knew the solution to my problem, but I didn't want to take it. I had a feeling that if I continued to starve myself and feed on normal food, I might be normal again.The taste of food had never been so awful. Water is way worse. Each time I tried to quench my taste with water, I always ended up vomiting all the content from my stomach. All my brain could think of was blood and I knew I was going to go insane if I as much smelled blood from any corner.My life had never been so miserable before. It felt like my heart had turned dark with the void. I was even avoiding Xavier. I was sure he wanted to help me or find out what was wrong with me, but I didn't let him.It seemed l
Christine's POVMy eyebrow knitted in confusion as I stared at him. I didn't know where the courage I got came from. I stood up from where I was, peering my eyes at him, without showing a single atom of fear. It was as if all my fear left the moment he said I should bring Mirabel to him.“What do you mean by that?"There was a lady there who spoke up. I didn't even realize her the first time I walked into the room.“It's okay" she smiled at me as she walked towards me, but her smile didn't make me trust her a bit. “We are family now, you don't have to act so tensely"“Families don't kidnap its members." I glared at her. “We are not family"She turned to look at the man who appeared to be the leader of the supposed cult. They all looked creepy. The most normal looking one was Jace. He was less distorted.“When last did you feed, you look sick" one of the men asked. He had very dark hair with the palest skin of all of them."I am not one of you. I am not a monster”Jace gave off his sig
