Xander's POVMy wolf growled in extreme anger as I tried to do some push ups, it had been in an angry state since I confronted Elizabeth. I would have just stayed put and let her think she had the upper hand. But then, I realize that people like Elizabeth try to play smart with anyone they come across. Not only does she intend to ruin my father's legacy, she wants to squander the money to her best ability. I guess she has no doubt about her becoming the Alpha's mother. She looked too calm, and I wish I had the guts to wipe that smug look off her face.She deserves nothing of what my father owned, no after killing him. How she sleeps at night surprises me, I had tried to be reasonable and understand that my dad had caused her pain in the past. But, hasn't he paid back enough? While he was alive and even in death. It was obvious now that Elizabeth was a greedy and power drunken individual, who would say and do anything to make things conform to her interest. If her excuse was because

Kira's POVI almost couldn't see my way through when I entered the room, mum was wailing loudly next to dad's lifeless body. My eyes trailed Leila's reaction, as usual, her poker face was holding up quite well. My knees gave out, and I fell to the floor. He is dead for real, and all of my attempt at keeping him alive has all gone to waste. I tried to let out tears but nothing came out, I felt lifeless. Sniffing, I got up quietly walking out like a zombie, ignoring the footstep behind me. I didn't stop in my tracks until I got to the garden, ignoring the grass, I sat on it, folding up my legs. For the first time since I had promised myself to never have anything to do with Xander again, I missed him. If his cheating ass didn't get exposed, I would have run right into his arms for him to console me. I have ignored his calls for a week, and he had stopped calling since then. Couldn't blame him, he isn't the cause of my woes. I should try to find my route myself. The tears flowed freel

Xander's POVI staggered back towards the table, feeling like I had been punched in the gut. The Alpha is dead, and I couldn't even imagine what Kira might be going through at the moment. I swallowed hard. “When was that?” Miguel pouted, “yesterday. I hope he finds peace in death, I heard his sickness had taken a considerable toll on him.”I nodded in agreement, “yes, I guess so.”“Did you eventually talk it out with Mira?” He askedI pulled at my hair returning to the chair, “you would be surprised she connived with Leila and Declan to show up and throw Kira off the pedal. How foolish can they be? Thinking my relationship with Kira will be in ruins because of Mira.”I saw Miguel shake his head slightly, “well, in actual truth they did ruin it. It's not like you have been on actual talking terms with her for the past week now.” “Well, thanks for rubbing it in.” I snorted, “I will leave you to it, just needed to bring the news to your notice.” Miguel announced heading out. Exhalin

Author's POVMira took a calculated step towards the bar, she was going to relay her thoughts and discomfort to Xander without hesitation. She couldn't keep up with his sour attitude towards her every time. She felt there was a need to command respect from him. The last time she had visited, and he accused her of causing a rift between himself and the other lady. She chided herself for backing out so easily. Clenching her fist around the handle of her bag, she ignored Miguel, who was acting polite towards her. She has always disregarded him, treating Miguel like he was irrelevant. He snorted at her receding back, it was no use trying to make friends with someone as shallow - minded as her. Xander jerked from his chair at the force of the door opening, he was almost excited about whom it might be. However, his face fell when it turned out to be Mira. Xander had thought she would be shameful enough to not show her face to him again.“What are you doing here, Mira?” He questioned, fina

Kira's POVI exhaled loudly, pushing the bed cover off me. My body felt heavy the moment my legs touched the floor. I haven't been out of the room for about two days, nobody came to check on me aside the maids who intend to clean the room or serve me my food. Ayla's whine is beginning to irritate me, I wouldn't blame her, though. It's been so long since she experienced any form of stretching. It's one of the things she can't resist doing. “Alright, Ayla. I'm heading out now.” I said tiredlyGetting myself ready, I stepped out of the room, not bothering to exchange pleasantries with anyone I ran into. I didn't realize how much I missed the natural space until I shifted and ran through the woods like a free bird. It's been precisely a week since my father, the Alpha of Blackstone pack, got buried. It still feels so surreal. I tried not to think of it, admitting he has gone to rest for good. He deserves the peaceful moment away from the ruckus of living. However, mum appears to be obl
