Aria's POV...I watched as his chest rose heavy and slow-paced breathing. I have always known he looks cute when asleep, but this time innocence was written all over his face. It makes my heart clench, knowing his current state is all because of me. Wade has made it a point of duty to visit us and throw taunting words our way. I only held back in responding to him because of Kyle's continuous warnings not to.Wade is so petty, and it seems like Breona's death brought out the worst of him. It makes me wonder what I was thinking to have ever fallen in love with him. All he ever did was ask me to do unreasonable things while fooling me with his fake affection and promise to marry me. I can't believe I was so stupid to have allowed it."Are you okay?" Kyle's sleepy voice asked, bringing me out of my reverie.I nodded hurriedly, "I am fine."He sat up with an amused smirk on his face. "Were you watching me sleep?"I scoffed at him, "You think too highly of

Kyle's POV...I stared at her sleepy face smiling sheepishly; she looked so peaceful when sleeping. That is the only time I get to see a more reserved part of her. Aria snuggled closer into my embrace, so shameless it made me chuckle lightly. She seems to have forgotten that we are in captive. Our urge for each other was too strong that we almost had sex in this filthy room, but I respect her beyond such a silly act; we would have to wait for us to be freed from here.According to Axel, we would be able to make it out tonight. I can't believe Wade went all out to throw a party in celebration of capturing Aria. I have a feeling the death of his lady has gotten to him quite much. I don't think any normal person would act the way he is behaving. Sighing, I rested my head against the scruffy wall, counting the hours remaining for Aria and me to be free.As much as I hate being stuck here, I am glad it's with Aria. The positive side to this state is that we both are getting over our misund

Kyle's POV...I inhaled the smell of Aria's hair deeply, feeling like I was lost in a garden filled with white lilies. Last night felt like the best day of my life. Having Aria by my side without worrying about anything except wishing the night wouldn't end. She stirred in my arms, leaning closer to me. I smiled lightly, kissing her forehead.We had spent the entire night reminiscing on our cold days at the Night Walker's pack cell. I am not going to let Wade get away so easily. He has to be punished for abducting the Alpha and Luna of the Moonstone pack. Everyone knows it's against the pack rules to effect any harm on an outside pack member. I will make sure he pays for his insolence.Standing quietly to avoid waking her up, I tiptoed to the bathroom to wash my face. Staring at my pale face in the mirror, I inhaled deeply, feeling restless all of a sudden. Putting on some clothes, I stepped out of the room, making my way to the training ground instead of staying at my usual spot to s

Aria's POV... I was super excited to see my girls again; it felt like I had been gone too long. Raven was practically squealing through the hugs. Ella settled on the couch, looking relaxed; it was the first time I noticed such calmness around her. She always seems to be in a hurry. "What's up with you, Ella?" I asked, unable to hold back any longer. "I was about to ask the same thing," Raven added. Ella giggled, "It's nothing much. I am just excited that Cassandra and I have been able to find a neutral ground. She talks to me like we have been friends for ages." "Wow! I am so happy for you." Raven mumbled with a straight face while she leaned into the bed frame. I laughed lightly, "You don't appear very happy like you said. The action does speak louder than voice." She cackled, "I just feel so envious that you both will soon leave me to myself. I should really get a

Aria's POV... I gasped at the doctor's announcement. "W.... what do you mean?" I stuttered. My eyes glanced back at Kyle. Beads of sweat had gathered on his forehead; he looked very pale. I sat next to him, wiping the sweat off. "why aren't you saying anything?" I yelled at the old man. The doctor cleared his throat, "Pardon me, Luna. What I am trying to say is; the knife used to attack him had poison laced with it." "Why did he not react since then?" I queried, wrapping my arms around Kyle. "It's a slow poison; it damages the insides of its victim until their wolf becomes too weak to fight." He replied. "That bastard, Wade!" I sobbed. "What can we do to save him now? Please save him." "Don't worry, Luna. I will get him treated. I will be right back. I need to call my assistants." He said, walking out of the room. Kyle groaned; he sounded like he was in utmost pain.
