We stood side by side and he spoke. “When that man gets closer, you'll attack him" he blurted out and I looked at him like he had lost his mind“Are you joking?" I nudged him from the side, but he didn't look like he was joking.“If you don't do it, I will" “Is this the food you talked about?"“What were you expecting, pizza and ice cream," he asked and I rolled my eye at him.I folded my arms. “I'm not doing” I stood my ground. He couldn't tell me what to do.“Even if you don't do it now, you are likely going to do it later on. Anyway, he's getting away" Jace said and before I could say a word, he was gone.My heart skipped a beat as I turned to look at the man who was filling his car with petrol. I knew he was going to be attacked by Jace at any moment. I wanted to stop Jace, but the problem was, I didn't know where he was. I panicked and thought of entering the car and driving out of there as soon as possible. But I knew Jace had the capability of going after a fast car. He was g
Kira's POVI clutched my book to my chest as I walked like my life was over. I didn't care if people stared at me. I didn't just see the need to hide my misery. Austin had ghosted for a whole day since he found out I was his mate. He probably couldn't come to terms with me being his mate. I couldn't tell if it was his ego or if he was scared of something. Whichever it was, I wished he would tell me to my face once and for all, and I'd just move on with my life.Speaking of the devil, Austin was right in front of me, approaching me, but I didn't act like I saw him. I wanted to walk past him but he held me back. His eyes were soft almost as if he was pleading with me to listen to what he had to say.I wanted to ignore him, but Anabelle was as stubborn as me. “What is it Austin?" I asked with a casual demeanor when in a real sense, I was dying on the inside.“I want to talk to you" he sounded too demanding, I hated it. “You are speaking to me now"“Not here, can we..."I didn't let him
Kira POVAs much as I wanted to walk to where she was and yank her forcefully by the hair, I didn't. I was already exhausted from the day's stress. I got into my car and started it, but it chose to act up again. I was truly frustrated. It was the fourth time, it was putting up an act.I got down from the car and looked around. I would have called Christine to give me a ride, but I couldn't stand her. I knew she couldn't stand it either. Austin would be willing to give me a ride, but that would mean I had also forgiven him for what he did.I was about to grab my phone to call Ken, but I saw him. He wasn't alone. He wasn't with the devil himself_Xavier.I felt sick to the match just at the sight of him. Why did have to be with Ken when I needed him? I didn't want Xavier around me because I couldn't stop blaming him for Christine's sudden change of attitude. I didn't know what he had done to her to make her hate me so much. Probably he gave her a kind of vampire portion that made her lik
Ken's POV“So I got my wolf recently” I heard her say and I almost didn't believe it because it was impossible. A human couldn't become a werewolf overnight. Except there was some authenticity in her story after all. “ Is that possible?" I had to ask because the scenario was truly confusing. I couldn't just wake up one morning and become a wizard. “I got it yesterday” She added even without me asking her. I suddenly remembered how different she looked that day. Her eyes looked wild in both desperation and hunger.I remember how my wolf was immediately restless at the sight of her. He didn't act angry as he had always been around her instead he was uncontrollable. There was this smell around her and it almost drove me insane. I had never experienced something like that before. I didn't say anything because I still found it hard to believe.“I know it's crazy, but I'm glad Selene chose to free me from part of the torture she out me in" she addedIt then occurred to me that if she did
Christine's POV“You don't expect me to sacrifice my friend to him, do you?“ I snapped at Jace who was persistent about me bringing Mirabel to Marcus. “I don't owe you guys anything" I added with the grimace of irritation not leaving my face. I wanted him to see how angry I was and he would probably let me beIf the door wasn't locked, I knew I wouldn't be having this conversation with him. Probably he thought I belonged to his secret cult of bloodsuckers just because I fed on a dead man.“You do realize you can't tell Marcus that?" he asked and I rolled my eyes at him. At that point, I pretty much didn't fear anyone. I didn't care if Marcus was the most dangerous vampire in LA, I wasn't going to bow to anyone. “He doesn't own me, so I don't have to speak with him. Besides, I don't even speak with her anymore, so it's going to be hard to do that"“Well since you don't feel attached to her anymore, that'll make things easier for us wouldn't it?". Jace suggested. “I am not doing it" I
Kira's POV.I didn't know if I should cry or I shouldn't. I felt numb at that point, not sure of what to do. One of my mates had just rejected me and the other was still trying to come to terms with me being his mate.I couldn't understand why it happened. Was that undesirable? I asked myself. At that point, I considered myself mateless. How was I going to carry with my life. This wasn't something one could leave with. Rejection was the worse thing you could do to a desperate wolf.I got home that day exhausted as hell. I should have called one of the driver to pick me up rather than Ken who found a way of ruining the day for me. I dragged my feet up the stairs. Rebecca wasn't home and I didn't see Fay either and I was grateful for the quietness the house had.The moment I stepped foot into my room, I broke down into tears. I couldn't hold it anymore. I cried my eyes out. Tears flowed down my cheeks with reckless abandon. I didn't know how to stop because each time I thought of Ken or
“You bloody liar!“ I yelled in rage."You did something to me"I was angry, but he didn't look impressed. He wanted me to try harder. One thing was certain, he wasn't going to let me go. He brought me here for a reason, but I didn't know what it was.“You can't hold me here" I snapped at him.“I already am" he shrugged. The way he acted so confident made me wonder if he wasn't concerned that I was going to try and bolt off.Speaking of bolting, that was exactly what I planned on doing. The door was wide open. If I was swift enough, I would make it out of the room. I didn't care how big the house was, I had a feeling if I was able to get past him, I was going to make it out of the house.“You must have taken me for something" I spoke slowly, trying to calculate my way out of the house.“True. You are smart after all" the moment the last statement left his lips, I bolted off. I ran out of the room into the passageway. It took me about 2 minutes of running hard to realize I wasn't being c
Kira's POV“I don't know what you are talking about. Your mother called me and I had to tell her a lie to save you from being scolded. Probably you were at Ken or Austin's house, I don't know, but if I had told your mum I didn't know, wouldn't she be worried?" She asked and I calmed down a bit. What she said made a lot of sense, but I was still skeptical. She hated being around me, why would she try to save me? “"I don't believe you and until I am certain of the reason why you told my mum that, stay the fuck away from me”She scoffed."Ungrateful bitch” She muttered under her breath before walking away, but I heard it.I rolled my eyes and tried to walk away, but a force hit me. I almost fell over, but I was able to push myself against the wall before that happened. I didn't understand what it was and how it happened, but it was too strong. I felt weak instantly, but not weak enough to pass out.I needed to find somewhere to rest because I didn't understand what was going on with my b
