Chapter 73 – The Warning “One cannot answer for his courage when he has never been in danger.“–Francots de La Rochefoucauld Neron I stood by the window in my office, watching the training sessions on the lush grass. The pup trainees combat each other, getting stronger each day. Small hands and feet swing and land on their targets joined with shouts of power and pride intermingling in the sweaty atmosphere. A small smile creeps on my face at their progress, the pups were becoming stronger every day. Soon, they’ll be on par with their adult counterparts. It was all thanks to Kiya’s talent and leadership. Despite missing sessions because of situations out of her control, she bounced back and so did the pups. I couldn’t be any prouder. I needed to protect her at all costs. After last night’s debacle, I boosted border security to the max. Some former warriors came out of their retirement to act as agents of protection. No matter how much I disagreed, they insisted firmly, it was for protecting and preserving the future of Zircon Moon. And to protect their Luna. That statement still irks me, I had every right to shoot it down, but I didn’t. No one else, besides my father and I, knew of Kiya’s refusal. In due course, I’ll announce it to the entire pack. Zircon Moon had gone for so long without a proper Luna, and it was my fault. I drove the true Luna away, and the false Luna couldn’t be any more incompetent to assume the role. We were still a powerful pack, but we were incomplete. Kiya becoming my Luna was the last thing on my mind. My principal focus was protecting her from that…thing in case it ever comes back. I’ve never seen a human–like–no. That thing was not human. It was akin to a war machine. It was unstoppable, nearly taking me out every chance it got, and I was the fucking Alpha. I was the strongest in my pack and I couldn’t take it down on my own. When I got up close, its face scared me more than its fists. The entity was…empty, soulless. There was no humanity in those horrific red eyes, its face was haunting That thing was inhuman, Judging by its atypical scent, I could be right. It was a soldier on a mission and every soldier had their commander calling the shots. There was someone bigger out there, lurking in the shadows and watching our every move, and they squared their eyes on Kiya. “Whoever the fuck they are, they’ll not touch her,” Onyx snarled. His voice was laced with rage and death. “I’ll tear everyone apart for wanting to harm our mate.” “Test you and I agree on something.” Sitting back at my desk, I examine the various documents on my desk. Transactions from various investments across Nevada, progress reports, written requests from pack members, notes from other Alphas, the works. I noted down the recent rogue attacks from neighboring packs in the Tri–state area. Attacks had not calmed down. Alphas were sending warnings to other packs to beware and prepare, something I was all too familiar with. Many smaller packs and refugees were heading to safer zones, including Garnet Moon. However, because of the recent attacks, it was inappropriate to take in evacuees and throw them in danger once more. “Pardon my intrusion, Alpha Neron, but I have a young woman at our gates demanding to speak with our trainers.” That stole my attention. Who the hell was this woman and how did she know about the trainers? The thought of another potential threat to not only my pack but Kiya set my blood on fire. “Keep her there, Geo. I’m on my way. What’s your take on this outsider?” “She smells like a witch.” My mind recalled the discoveries from both Kwame and Valerian at the Witching Hour some time back. Witches were angry about the taboo magic used to revive dead wolves yet supplied no other leads to a rumored coven of corrupt witches. The woman on the outer steps of my territory could be one of them. With haste, I jogged to the border where two of my border agents held the witch by the arms. Dressed in a maroon blouse and a black pleated skirt, awesome power radiated from the small woman, catching me completely off guard. Her strawberry–blond hair laid over her shoulders in braids and her eyes… Her eyes were abnormally purple. How unique. “State your business, witch,” I growled. It was not that I had anything against witches. I hate having outsiders. imposing themselves on my land without my knowledge. “I’m here to see the Garnet Moon warriors.” She avowed in confidence as her eyes held mine. “There’s something urgent I need to speak with them about.” “Whatever you need to say, you can say it to me.” I crossed my arms. The witch was growing more panicked but continued to hold a firm gaze. She appeared to be sincere, but I was not taking any chances of potential threats. “How did you know they’re here?” “I’ll show you if your brutish men would release my arms!” She demanded. “It’s getting uncomfortable.” Through the mind–link, I ordered my men to release the witch but to remain on guard in case she tries something. She wiggled her arms to get some feeling back into them before unbuttoning the maroon blouse she wore and exposed the mark over her left breast, She held the Garnet Moon pack mark, in the same area as Kiya’s. Although, it was strange for a witch to bond to a werewolf pack, but it wasn’t impossible. “Name?” “Phoebe Lacey.” Kiya “Phoebe!” There was no way she was standing in front of me. Phoebe engulfed me into a tight hug, her head burrowing in my shoulder. Some pup trainees stopped to see the reunion with their trainer and the strange woman. “What are you doing here?” “We have to talk.” She stated with her purple eyes quivering in fear. Wasting no time, I asked Adama, Kwame’s brother, to lead the next training sessions. Jackie and the others caught up as soon as they got a whiff of Phoebe’s wild berry scent. In no time, the six of us sat in Neron’s office with him. Kwame and Valerian joined “Does Alpha Anthony know that you’re here?” Sapphire asked. “Um.” Her eyes darted to the side. “No?” “How did you get here? Galen asked, crossing his arms, “Teleportation. I’m not sitting in a car for five hours.” “You could have called us.” Abigail smiled. “This is such a surprise,” “I didn’t have time. This is too urgent for a phone call.” Phoebe’s eyes found mine. “Because I know you’ve awakened, Kiya.” My eyes widened. How? There was no way she could have known. She couldn’t detect that power from afar! Then again, witches were powerful. They had magle and senses beyond that of a werewolf. “Yeah…I did.” … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 73” »

“N-no! It’s not like that!” I pleaded, tears swimming down my face. “I don’t want this!

I coughed; choked as his anger burned through my pores and incinerated me internally.

Chapter 72 – The Hunter www.com “You can be the hunter, or you can be the hunted.” be the hunted.“– Lisa Gardner Kiya “We shouldn’t have done that.” “No shit, Sherlock.” My lips were still swollen from our kiss, the dull throbs pulsating as vivid reminders. The excited chatter of the amusement park muffled in my ears as my heart beats against my ribcage like a drum. Neron and I crossed a line that should’ve never been crossed. A line I promised myself I would never cross. We kissed, and we kept kissing until the ride operator opened the side door for us and awkwardly cleared his throat. Blaring heat made its home under my skin as I thought about it. His hands roaming my body felt like heaven, his heat held mine in a tight embrace, and his lips. Goddess, his lips were witchcraft incarnate! They ignited a fire I didn’t know I had. Coupled with his skillful tongue, I was a goner. An absolute goner. It felt so good. So right. So…loved. But even what felt good could be wrong. The kiss shouldn’t have happened. At all. All my internal promises and determination went down the drain, and I only had myself to blame. I wavered. I let the bond take over me. I let this all happen. I’m weak. I’ve always been weak. How could I fool myself all these years thinking I was strong? One stupid kiss and I threw away all I worked hard to achieve. I was an idiot, a fucking fool. Everything just became more complicated. Neron and I walked towards his car with me following a few steps behind. I didn’t want him to see my face. I was ashamed of myself. Hot tears slowly blurred my vision. I hugged my teddy bear against my chest, the only source for my comfort I had now. The softness of the pelt relayed a message that I could cry into it when I was in private. That it was here to soak up my sadness and self–guilt. That was all I could do now–relish in my stupidity. We entered his car in silence, neither of us daring to address the elephant in the room. Shame rolled off Neron in waves as he struggled to focus on starting the car. He dropped his keys several times before he was able to turn on the ignition, gradually driving away from the park into the silent night. Needing a distraction, I reached for the radio. He did too. Our hands jerked away like we’ve touched an open flame when our fingers touched. Goddamnit! Huffing, I turn the volume knob as Los Delphines thumped through the car. It reminded me to look up where Violetta and her band were playing next. Silence persisted. Anxiety persisted. But it didn’t change the fact that we kissed and potentially strengthened the bond when there was no need to. How were we going to manage this? The lines were too blurred, and I felt the deep desire to kiss him again. The desire for his lips to set ablaze my core. To surrender into our animalistic lust and just… “FUCK!” My fists slammed on the dashboard, shaking under the force of my hands. “Why the hell did you have to kiss me, Neron?” “I didn’t mean to, Kiya.” He admitted with his tired eyes glued to the road. “I… I got caught up in the moment. Onyx fighting with me didn’t help and…” He sighs. “It shouldn’t have happened.” “What are we going to do?” I mutter. “We can’t pretend like the kiss hasn’t happened.” “We have to,” Neron replied, his voice void of amusement. “Especially around Dad. Once he catches a whiff that something’s happened between us, he’ll use it to further his agenda.” “Right. Because he still wants me to be Luna.” “But it felt good.” I arch an eyebrow, catching sight of Neron’s reddening cheeks. “The kiss?” He nodded, timid. I groan miserably because I agreed. The damn thing felt so good and that’s what was wrong with it. How long until I completely surrender to the bond? Could I hold out for much longer? Judging from Neron’s side view, there was turmoil in him. Why did he ask me to reject him? If this was when I first arrived on Zircon territory, I’d be more than happy to do just that and call it a day. Now? I was not sure. My indecisiveness to reject him would be my downfall. The road back home was lengthy, but I was grateful for it. Since we live some distance away from human towns, we must remain as disguised as possible. However, something felt off. The music was blaring inside of the car, but outside was so still. I’d typically spot a few animals or insects mingling in the dark woods, uncaring to the world around them. But there was not an animal or bug in sight. This was too strange, added with an unidentifiable stench that assaulted my nostrils. Chills equal to the Arctic slid down my spine, forcing an involuntary shiver. The longer the feeling marinated, the more I felt on edge. Neron had to be feeling this too, right? My eyes caught his eyes darting from the rear–view mirror to the side mirror with his jaw working tight. “Something’s wrong.” His hands tightened around the steering wheel, “We’re going to take a detour back to pack territory.” “Good idea.” Well, someone sure as fuck didn’t think so. Suddenly, we both jerked forward from the forced stop of the car. It caught me off guard, stopping so fast I got whiplash. A heavy thump on the hood of the car caught our attention, but the night and the thick trees lining the road was a skillful camouflage. We couldn’t see the head of whoever or whatever we might have hit because the front lights only illuminated the bottom half of the unknown entity. Sooner rather than later, I found out what the thing was. An impossibly powerful person busted their fist through the windshield, grabbed me by my shirt collar, and threw me from the car. I hit the ground hard, back first. Glass shards rained all around me with a few inhabiting my skin. “Kiya!” my ears I slowly rolled to my side, gasping as more shards sliced my skin. Loud, heavyweight boots echoed in my e as the pursuer made his way to me. I found myself lifted in the air once more by a metallic gloved hand. That was when I was able to get a look at the perpetrator. to kiss me. Neron?” “I didn’t mean to, Kiya.” He admitted with his tired eyes glued to the road. “I… I got caught up in the moment.

I’m not her and never would be again.” “I apologize.” He whispered. “How are you here now?” “Selene was merciful,” I brush my fingers through my teddy bear’s sandy pelt. “I died before my time. After some conversation, she sent me back to Earth for another life. She said I have a purpose to fulfill.” I laughed. “I guess she meant this avatar stuff, huh?” “Goodness…” Neron buried his face in his hands, shielding his eyes. As if he didn’t want me to see his physical shame. “Kiya, I want to know. I want to know what happened after you survived.” “Why?” “So, I could truly understand how my actions fucked up your life, and how your pack gave you the life your deserved.” He suddenly looked at me, his eyes brimming with intense emotion. “Tell me how much I and my pack failed you.” “Everything?” “Everything.” Neron got what he asked, albeit with some hesitation. From my grueling recovery to mental health counseling to getting back in school to where I am today, I told all. Neron listened in silence until I finished but failed to keep a neutral expression. Emotions were easy to read on his face, I could read him like an open book. I saw sadness. Shock. Frustration. Anger. Guilt. Substantial guilt like a dark storm cloud. It rained on him and added more weight to his shoulders. Neron looked as if someone shot him in the chest and the pain hasn’t registered in him yet. I spared no detail. I wanted him to imagine how hard my life was. How hard my recovery was and still is. Many times, in the past five years I wanted to give up and end it all, but it was only with the support of my friends and family that I was alive today. He had to know that. I could go on and on about how Zircon Moon destroyed me. But that’s not the focus. At least talking about it would help Neron reflect on his past actions. Maybe he feels like he hasn’t done enough? I don’t know. In a flash, I was pulled into a hug. A tight one. Neron’s trembling body swallowed me whole, jerking with every silent sob. Hot tears rained like acid rain on my bare shoulder, blistering and powerful. He buries his large head in the crook of my neck with the atmosphere of the cabin thick with intensity. It was overwhelming. I didn’t know what to do, it even conflicted Artemis whether to comfort Onyx, who was also howling deep in shame. I couldn’t hug Neron back, mostly because my arms were trapped in his hold like a boa constrictor. “You went through so much, and I did that to you. You shouldn’t have gone through it. I’m sorry. I’m deeply, incredibly sorry, Kiya. I’m sorry for hurting you. For forcing you to choose to end your life. I’m happy that you found your place and have people that love you deeply. They did the job that I and my pack should have done. Goddess…” “Neron, I’m scared,” I confessed to his shoulder. He releases me, pulling me back cautiously. “Of what?” “Of this…whatever the hell this is.” I motioned to the space between us. “I can’t afford any of this happening.” “I’m not sure I follow.” “You can feel the bond and so can 1,” I explained, running a hand through my hair. “That’s the most irritating thing right now. You’re apologizing and doing so much for me, and I hate it. Over this past month, it’s becoming harder to hate you. I am terrified of opening my heart out further because I’m afraid you’re going to turn around and crush it. I’m afraid this is all some trick. Many have taken advantage of my heart and I’ll protect it, always.” “Your second chance mate deserves your heart, Kiya. They are out there and-!” “They aren’t,” I whisper. “I asked Selene not to give me one.” Neron looked at me, aghast. “Why the hell would you do that? You deserve a mate, Kiya, one who hasn’t N … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 71” »
Chapter 70 – The Date “Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.“–Dalai Lama XIV Kiyn I was going to regret going on this date, wasn’t I? It shouldn’t be considered a ‘date‘ because we weren’t in a relationship. We were going as friends. Nothing more, nothing less. Odessa, unfortunately, got a whiff of the news. She lurked from the wall when I spoke about it with my friends. Lorelai, an angel, offered to take me shopping for a ‘date‘ outfit, despite telling her it was not a romantic date, only to find the outfit destroyed after dinner. She covered it in blue ink, deeming it unwearable. I was sure she did this! My dumb ass forgot to lock my door. again, granting Odessa full access for her destruction. Her scent remained long after she left. I was hurt because Lorelai spent her money on it, and it went to waste. So, what did 1 do? Nothing. I couldn’t prove it was Odessa who did this, despite my gut telling me otherwise. I had the idea of throwing the destroyed outfit back at her face, but I didn’t want to stoop to her level. Causing trouble with her wasn’t worth it in the end. With a heavy sigh, I mourned the outfit for a minute longer before tossing it in the trash. This high school bullshit was getting on my last nerve. I couldn’t bear to tell Lorelai the truth, not without solid evidence. She worked so hard to pick out an outfit for me and I don’t know if I could handle her disappointment. But there wasn’t much I could do, and this is the first date I’ve ever been on. I needed her fashion advice. Eventually, I sucked it up and told her what had happened. “Oh…” Both disappointment and suspicion swam across her youthful face before breaking out into a small smile. “No worries, hun. It is too late to head to the mall, so let us look in your closet for an emergency outfit.” “You think I have something date appropriate in there?” I asked, quirking an eyebrow. Lorelai chuckled and nodded. “We can make it work. We just need to tweak and add a few things and it’ll be perfect!” We spent the next hour going through all the clothes in my closet before she tossed a couple of her chosen pieces on the bed. Lorelai also worked on matching my jewelry with the outfit and offered me one of her flat irons to use, commenting that I needed more gold. Despite it being a time for her to help me, I was more than happy to spend more time with the Gamma Female. There was something about her energy and aura that made me comfortable enough to trust her, even when we went to the mall last week. Ah, I love her already! Nightfall fell over the territory and the stars twinkled to their silent tune around the silvery moon. An unexpected visitor flew into my room, wings fluttering as she walked around on my vanity, narrowing Chapter 70 – The Date avoiding my bracelet stands and makeup palettes. I smiled and petted Diana on the head as she explored. I stood in front of my vanity mirror with my hair completely straightened to my mid–back. I wore blue ripped skinny jeans, an off–shoulder long–sleeved black–and–white striped crop top, and ankle–high black boots. My selenite bracelet jingled on my wrist. I left my necklace for tonight. Diana hobbled over with one of my tied headbands in her beak. “Oh! Thank you, love.” I took it from her beak and tie my hair. A sense of completion washed over me while I stared at my finished look. I look good and feel good! “Thanks for your help, Diana.” “Hoo!” She nuzzled her head into my palm and departed through the window. I stuffed a pocketknife in my pant pocket in case someone tried something with me tonight. A woman must be prepared for anything. I grabbed my off–shoulder purse from the hook and walked to the common room where I saw my friends and their mates chilling in the common room. Odessa shot me a dirty look, which Darien was oblivious to. I shook my head, not wanting to start a scene, so I turned to the others. “So, how do I look?” I asked the group. All pondered in silence for a moment before I saw Jackie’s face twist into amusement. Oh, Goddess. “Badonkers.” She gestured to her breasts. Both Abigail and I hit her with pillows while laughing. “What? They look amazing in that top!” “You look lovely, Miss Kiya.” Mikhail, Galen’s mate, grinned. “Where is Alpha Neron taking you?” “Odyssey Park.” “The amusement park?” Sapphire’s eyes lit up. “Oh, you’re going to have so much fun!” It had been a while since I’ve been to an amusement park. Memories of sweet, greasy food and excited screaming echoed in my mind and ears. Ashley and Steven took Raina and I to Odyssey Park when I was six and she was eight. We road in bumper cars, carousals, and filled our stomachs up with funnel cake until we got sick. We’d always complain about not being able to ride the roller coasters because we were too young and short for it. Afraid of heights? Not us. Yet, I always wanted to go on the Ferris Wheel and look down at the world from high above. A small smile rested on my face as the memories faded like smoke in the wind, but the nostalgia remained. It was a good time. I wondered why Neron picked this spot for our date. Better than a fancy dinner–Selene knew how awkward I was at formal events. Plus, what was the harm in acting like a kid for a little while? I admit I like the idea. No pressure, just fun! “Holy shit.” I whipped around in surprise to see Neron standing directly behind me, dressed in dark blue jeans with a grey buttoned–up shirt with the first two buttons open. He adorned a silver–chain necklace with a triangle pendant. His long, black tresses rested on his shoulders with some strands brushing up against his stubble. My eyes maneuvered down to see black Varese shoes. His eyes continued to gaze, like a hawk to its prey. “What?” I asked, ignoring the rising heat on my cheeks. “You’re beautiful.” His hand gently takes a lock of my hair. “How long did it take you to do this?” “Uh… let’s see. Between shampooing, conditioning, deep conditioning, the blowout, heat protectant, and the Chapter 71 flat–iron…it took about four hours.” His eyes widened in shock as I burst out laughing. “Coily hair requires: care on an entirely different level.” Isaiah, Abigail, and Jacqueline snapped in agreement. still the same “Well.” Neron smiled, “You didn’t need to do all of that for our date. Curly or straight, you’re still the same Kiya I adore. I got you something.” “Neron, please. No gifts.” “No, take it, I insist. And before you say anything, I can’t return it because I got it engraved.” From behind. him, he gave me a small velvet box. I raised an eyebrow, opened it, and rested inside a full–moon phase necklace. I was born under a full moon. The silver chain glittered and next to the pendant was a gold star charm with the letter “K“. Engraved behind the pendant was my birthdate, October 1st. “Neron…” I whispered, tears pricking my eyes. “This is…really thoughtful.” … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 70” »
Chapter 69 – The Promise “Keep every promise you make and only make promises you can keep.” – Anthony Hitt Kiya I woke up in my bed with a splitting headache. Exerting my newfound powers must have drained me and knocked me out cold. The last thing I remembered before blacking out was Neron’s arms grabbing me before I dropped to the floor. Thank goodness he had been there, or else I would have woken up with worse pain. Rising from my pillow, I ruffled my hair and stretched the corkscrew curls to examine them. My hair had changed back to my natural color as I slept. Not only have I fully awoken‘ as Selene called it, but my appearance dramatically changed when I did. “Good Goddess…” I mumbled, rubbing my forehead. Selene’s power seethed beneath my flesh, warming sensations more prominent than before. I felt weird like I wasn’t in my own body. Having a separate energy source that was out of my control weighed on me mentally. How much power was stored inside my body? Was I like a ticking time bomb? Could my powers hurt me or others? I wish Phoebe were here. She would help me, especially since she was a fellow avatar. She always made me feel safe. Her motherly energy, despite being four months older than me, was something I needed now. “You’re awake.” I jumped, spotting Neron sitting at my desk. His large body in a smaller chair was an interesting sight. “Yeah, I assume you brought me here?” He nodded. “You fainted at the hospital. It seemed fitting to bring you here.” “I’m half surprised you didn’t take me to your room. Now that I’ve mentioned it, I’ve never seen his room. I was never allowed near it, not even to clean it. Curiosity piqued my interest, what sort of things would Neron have in his room? Pictures of women? Was everything carved out of wood? Was it made to fit royalty? “That thought crossed my mind.” He confessed. “But I thought it’d be best for you to wake up in a familiar room.” “How did you get in?” “Door was unlocked.” “Oh…” Right. I rushed out as soon as I heard the screams. Locking my door was the least of my worries. “Um…thank you, I guess.” “It is my pleasure.” He shuffled out of the chair, albeit noisily, and stretched his arms toward the ceiling, almost touching the ceiling. Goddamnit, he was so tall. Fucking skyscraper. “How are you feeling?” I shrug my shoulders. “Okay, I guess.” Honestly, it was difficult to put my feelings into words. The only word I could describe was strange. I transformed into something else. Instead of shifting to a wolf, I shifted to this…being who shares power with Selene. I didn’t notice Neron moved to sit on my bed until it dipped under his weight. “Something’s on your mind.” He folded his hands in his lap. “You must have so many questions about what Chapter 69. The Promise happened to you. Believe me, I do too.” I stay silent, unable to find the words to reply, so he continued, “How long have you known that you’re an “For a while,” I answered, not willing to reveal the complete truth. “My powers came about 2-3 years ago during training back home. I accidentally hurt a fellow warrior, but I thought I figured out how to control it through a friend.” “A friend?” I nodded. “Phoebe is her name and she’s amazing. She’s a witch whose part of my pack and the avatar of Hekate, the Goddess of Magic.” His eyes widened in shock. “There are more avatars out there?” “It looks like it. But I haven’t met anyone else outside of Phoebe.” I sighed, rubbing my temple as my headache throbbed. “Goodness, this is too much.” Neron bit his lip, pondering deep in thought “I know how you feel.” I eyed him incredulity as he continued, “Being overwhelmed with the sudden weight of responsibility put on your shoulders like there’s already so much you have to do, but then life throws you in for another loop. It makes you feel like… you’re not in control.” “Dude, you’re in control of everything.” I retorted. “You’re an Alpha by birthright, inheriting this entire pack. You have the power that other low–ranking wolves would kill for. You’re telling me you felt burdened by it?” “Believe it or not, Kiya, I never wanted to become Alpha.” My eyes grew a bit wide at his confession. “I hated the lessons and training my father instilled in me since childhood. He carved me out to be his perfect son and the perfect Alpha when all I wanted is to be a normal werewolf. Mom used to tell my Dad to lighten up, to allow me to enjoy being a kid.” My hear a pool of pain at the thought of Luna Celeste, a beautiful woman that I looked up to along sunk I with my birth mother. She was firm, but never overbearing. She cared deeply for everyone, treating all pack children like her own children. She truly was the embodiment of what a true Luna should be. I miss her. I miss Nuria too, my spunky partner–in–crime. “Your Mom would have been proud of you,” I whispered, “Even though you didn’t want to be Alpha, I think. she still would have been proud.” Neron shook his head with a sad frown on his lips, “No, she wouldn’t. I broke the one promise I made to her. That if I ever found my mate, I’d treat her right and never make her question my love for her. I’m sure she’d be ashamed of me. Nuria too.” He smiled bitterly. “She’d probably smack me upside the head with something harder than her stuffed puppy toy.” Old memories rose to the surface at the mention of the toy. Nuria carried that thing everywhere, even when we’d have a sleepover in each other’s bedrooms. It was a big, black and white dog, with stuffing that made it as soft as the clouds in the sky. We would tease each other about who had the better toy, her with her puppy or me with my bear. I hated how my heart twisted at every thought of her, my first best friend. Why did those with good hearts have to die? I was convinced the Grim Reaper was a confused son–of–a–bitch. “Kiya.” Neron held my gaze for a moment. In his eyes, many emotions swam in his cobalts, but the one I saw most was griel, “You have every right to hate me as you do now. I was a terrible person back then, and | deserve every ounce of your hatred. I’m surprised you stuck around me for this long.” “It’s not like I had a choice,” I shrugged again, calm. “We’re living with each other until the end of summer.” His eyes looked pained. “…I’m not looking forward to when that day comes.” “Neton…” I sighed, closing my eyes, “You helped me, even when I pushed you away. You helped me through my heat, my poisoning, and now, with this… awakening of mine. I want to believe that you’re doing this out of the kindness of your heart, but I can’t help but think you’re doing because you’re compelled to.” “The bond has a little to do with it, yes.” He nodded. “But I also know that my feelings for you are true. I love you, Kiya and I’m a fucking idiot for realizing … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 69” »
Chapter 68 – The Awakening “Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.” -Max Holloway Neron pure energy An epic force of blasted my body into the walls of the packhouse. Bricks groaned on impact, shifting out of place. Kiya’s scream rebounded through the territory, shaking the windows to their breaking point. I slumped to my knees, weakened by the searing pain through my torso. The hole was healing, but slowly. I tried to push the pain aside as I squinted through the bright light before me, trying to spot Kiya. Moon Goddess, please tell me that thing didn’t take her! The light began to fade and all that was left was thick dust. I prayed desperately for a sign that she was still there. That she was safely away from that monstrous thing that sprouted from my undead uncle. Please, oh Goddess, please! When the dust cleared, my eyes widened like saucers at the scene before me.. It was Kiya, yet it wasn’t. My Kiya’s beautiful curls were black as obsidian, but the curls I saw before me were white as moonstone. They gently danced with the wind, waltzing to a silent melody. White markings delineated with glowing blue etched into her brown skin. The prominent contrast of the colors enhanced her beauty. The markings swirled and danced across her skin, like tribal makeup or henna. Kiya lifted her hands to examine them. “Kiya…?” I had to be sure she was still in there. She turned around. It was her, no doubt. Now, instead of deep brown, her eyes were the brightest, most electric of all blues. The same white markings on her arms and back were present on her face, exposed chest, and stomach. She looked like an actual goddess. “Neron?” Kiya asked, her voice layered with Artemis, echoing with each syllable. “What happened to me?” I couldn’t answer her. I didn’t know what was going on either, but the power radiating from her was intense. Her beauty was enamoring; she looked beyond radiant. I tenderly pushed myself back upon my feet and moved closer, my hand reached out and cupped her cheek. Her skin felt warmer. It was a soothing warmth, like hot tea before bed. Her eyes bore into mine, concern swimming behind the lens. I don’t know what happened to her. The rogues slowly began to reform around us. They circled and snarled until one of them broke form to charge at Kiya. Her concern melted away as she tore her eyes from mine, attention back to the rogues. “Leave!” Her voice was firm and powerful as an ancient deity. The mutts whimpered and writhed before falling, their bodies deteriorating like wet paper. Mangled limbs of different wolves rotted away. My uncle’s dismembered body rotted along with them, already adding to the foul stench in the air. Kiya’s eyes widened in shock, pointing at what she did. It was unbelievable. She ended the ambush as it started with a simple command. Chapter 68–The Awakening “What’s happening?” She whispered in wide–eyed shock. “What the hell is going on? How was I able to do that?” “I think you have the goddess’s power,” I noted flinching on the last word. I rubbed my chest, careful to not graze the wound. Her worried gaze went to the wound in my chest, “You’re not healing fast enough. Does it still hurt?” “A little.” I lied, it fucking hurt a lot. I knew she detected my dishonesty. Her fingers lightly graze across the wound, fingertips staining red. I was about to stop her, to let her know I was fine and that she didn’t need to worry about me when suddenly, I was bathed in a cooling sensation. It was like swallowing cold water after chewing mint gum. The skin around my wound began to regenerate faster than ever before, until it closed completely, leaving behind a barely noticeable scar. My eyes widened in absolute dismay. Did…she heal me? “She did!” Onyx yipped in pride. “Our mate is amazing! She is special!” “Holy shit! I just healed you!” She smiled in dismay. Her eyes held a sparkle of excitement at her newfound ability. She was adorable, I could watch her like that all day. “Selene’s beloved avatar has finally awoken.” I turn my head to see my father standing tall in the clearing, surrounded by rotting rogue corpses. I scowled at him, remembering what he had the nerve to say to me at the hospital. Whispers of commotion from warriors and remaining pack members breezed around us. “She is Selene’s avatar? What a beauty!” “Our Moon Goddess blessed us with her grace and protection!” “A goddess in her own right…she holds more power than many packs combined!” “Holy crap, Little Bit…” Kiya turned to face her friends. Sapphire’s smile widened, “So, this was hiding in you all this time? I knew you were a powerhouse, but this…” “I’m still so confused…” Kiya whispered, examining her hands again like she was expecting something to sprout out. “How do you feel?” I asked her in a whisper. “…Powerful.” Her friends got on one knee in front of her, their gazes full of wonder and happiness. My warriors followed suit; their heads bowed to Kiya. Pack members that were hiding inside the pack house filed out of the house to observe what took place. One look at Kiya and they knew, they dropped to one knee and bowed their heads in respect. The respect that always should have been hers. “The avatar of our beloved matron goddess in our presence! This is a sign of good things to come for those who bear witness to her true glory.” My father gushed with a smile in his voice. “And she is the fated mate to your Alpha. Our newest Luna is as beautiful as she is fearsome! She deserves nothing less than our respect!” There was something in his voice that I didn’t like, especially when he regarded Kiya as my Luna. Yes, she was my mate and rightful Luna, but she doesn’t want to be. It was her choice to accept the position and my father was pushing it onto her in front of everyone. The pack members all praised Kiya as their new Luna, I felt her twitch slightly beside me with discomfort. Chapter – The Awakening How much do I know about our Moon Goddess‘ avatars? Not much. I admit, I slacked heavily with my historical lessons, but what I did know was that her avatar, the More White wolf, holds incredible: powerful than all the Alphas combined because she was directly created from Selene’s own body. The wolf’s power was Selene’s power. They symbolize good luck, prosperity, wealth, and unimaginable strength. I didn’t deserve Kiya. How was I destined to be the mate of the legendary white wolf, given my past actions? Kiya, my love, she deserves better. Better than me. I dropped to one knee, taking her hand into mine. I placed a soft kiss on her palm, her skin war against my lips. My eyes found hers once again, relaying a silent message of loyalty and protection.. I’d give my life for her. “Whoa, whoa, whoa!” She shouted, her head darting all around the territory. “This is what we’re NOT going to do! I’m not royalty and would never be royalty, so don’t treat me like I’m someone important. Dvol—!” I stood, furious at her self–depreciation. “You are important! You are special. Kiya, and our goddess clearly believes so too.” “Don’t put me on a higher pedestal, Neron.” She growled, jerking her hand away. “I don’t want special treatment from you or anyone!” Her head jerked to her friends. “As for you four, treat me any different, and 1 will kick all of your asses!” All four shot to their feet, dusting off their knees. Kiya sighed, running her fingers through her clean, white curls. “Jackie, Abigail is in the hospital. Orion took her there when- Beta Jacqueline shot off the battlegrounds in a blur, taking huge strides toward the hospital. Her friends trailed behind her. Kiya wasted no time running after her group, her hair Bailing behind her in the wind. … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 68” »
Chapter 67 – The Ambush “When the going gets tough, put one foot in front of the other and just keep going. Don’t give up.“–Roy T. Bennett Kiya The element of surprise. It was the sole advantage our opponents have, and it worked swimmingly. Many pack members panicked from the chaos, grabbing their children and/or loved ones as they fled to the underground bunkers. Bodies of all shapes and sizes spilled into the packhouse alongside the storm of hurried footsteps, barely covering the screams and disembodied roars outside. I must be out there. I needed to be in this battle. Damn the doctor’s orders; people’s lives were on the line! Sucking in a deep breath, my chest expanded with my resolve. Hiding was not an option. I was here to do my job and I won’t let some poison stop me from doing so. I sucked in a deep breath and bolted out my bedroom door. Dodging the panicked bodies, I emerged onto the grisly battlefield. Zombified rogues spilled from all corners of the woodlands, group after group. Just like the previous battles. All warriors fought valiantly, cutting down their numbers as fast as the enemy replenishes them. But it came with a price. Many held injuries. There was no shortage of red spilled. My friends and ranked wolves fought harmoniously on the front lines, killing every rogue on sight. The stench of decay was worse than before, now mixed with fresh blood. My observations violently halted when Abigail, our formidable fighter, dropped to the ground with a deep gash on her stomach. Jackie howled in pain and volcanic anger, charging into the beasts with murder on her mind. This insanity had to stop! I ran to Abigail and dragged her away by the shoulders towards the stairs. Iron assaulted my nose and a retch came out of my mouth. She whimpered weakly with my every step, pressing her hands against the wound that rapidly flowed with blood. “It fucking hurts…” Abigail moaned, eyes squeezing shut. She never cursed, which enforced the gravity of the situation. I stripped offi buttoned–up shirt and pressed it against the wound as hard as I could, despite her blood seeping through the fabric and between my fingers. Being in a bra didn’t matter. My friend’s well–being outweighed my self–consciousness. ‘Stay with me, Abi! You’re going to be okay!” I whispered, tears pricking my eyes. I darted my head around, hoping to find someone not being man–handled by a rouge to help me. “Orion!” I shouted, spotting him near me. Immediately, he jogged up to me, eyes widening at the state of Abigail. “Take her to the pack hospital, now!” “But what about you, Delta Kiya?” He asked. After our showdown a while back, Orion gave me nothing but respect. “You’re recovering, you can’t fight!” “Don’t worry about me. Take her, or else Beta Jacqueline would rip you apart for not helping her mate!” Picking Abigail up, I thrust her into his arms. “Now, go!” As if a greater power influenced him, Orion ran towards the hospital, dodging the calamity. Praying silently for Abigail’s recovery, I donned my fighter face and joined the battle. Punching, stamping, flinging, and tearing the rogues apart as I could. Chapter 67 The Ambush face imprinted in my mind, failing to stifle the powerful emotions within me. I could feel Jacqueline’s sadness and frustration over her beloved, Galen and Darien’s struggle, and Sapphire’s pain. The enemy grew stronger. They learned a lot since our last encounter. One rogue suddenly struck my arm with their decaying claws, slashing through brown flesh. Four slash marks. presented themselves on my upper arm, blood gushed down like a raging river. Another got me on the leg and used their unfathomable force to headbutt my stomach. I went flying onto the dirty ground, dust flying on impact. “Goddamnit!” I shouted in my head, wincing at my open wounds. Now, I looked like many of the warriors, bloodied and nearly defeated. Zombies advanced towards me, rotten jaws drooling bright green and red. Their hollowed eyes bared down into mine, pushing the reminder they’re soulless creatures. They’re reanimated to fight and to kill. That’s their purpose. But, why? Who was commanding them? Before any could grant me death, a pitch–black wolf barreled hard into them. His jaws tore through them mercilessly, his large body shielding me from harm. Many fruitfully fought him but fell to his Alpha might. No one challenges the Alpha and lives. Neron’s wolf, Onyx, turned to me, golden eyes carved from concern. His snout nuzzled into my stomach, good feelings overriding the sinister pain “I–I’m fine…” I say, patting his snout. Slowly, but surely, I rose from the ground. Onyx’s nose didn’t leave me until I was steady on my feet. He disappears behind the stone statutes, and Neron appeared before me wearing only boxing shorts, “Kiya, what are you thinking? You shouldn’t be out here!” “Well, I am!” I huffed, my wounds starting to gradually close. “Neron, what the fuck happened? How did these beasts get past the border patrols?” “They killed them.” My jaw dropped. “It’s an ambush. We didn’t know of the attack until they sounded the horn, but by then, the rogues were less than half a mile from our grounds.” “Fuck!” People were dead! The patrols were blindsided, and Zircon Moon has no further defense besides us! The battlefield was growing, increasing in brutality and violence, blood, and guts staining the once lush–green grass. “We’ll deal with this after the fight.” “No, I’ll deal with this after the fight. You need to go back inside to safety.” His hands grabbed my shoulders, holding me still. “You’re not fit to fight, not while recovering from poison.” “Recovery is the last thing on my mind when Abigail’s in the hospital, bleeding from her belly!” I shrug his hands off me. “I cannot sit and hide while everyone I care about is risking their lives out here!” “But you cannot risk your health alongside it, Kiya!” Neron brushes his hand through his frazzled hair, his eyes carrying the weight of the world. “For once, listen to me! Get out of here! I’m losing wolves as we speak, and I can’t bear to lose you in the process!” “What a beautiful display of a lover’s quarrel. I wish I could see more, but alas, there are more pressing matters.” Both of us jerked our heads to the gruff voice owner and for that moment, I wanted to vomit my breakfast. The bastard reeked of death. Just like the wolves, his skin was patched like a sewn–up doll. Glowing purple outlined the fleshly blotches, giving him more of a menacing look. He walked through the battlefield towards. Chapter 67 – The Ambush us, ignoring the calamity that went around him. The undead wolves kept everyone else busy, allowing for their master to make his grand entrance. Deep growls erupted next to me from Neron, his face contorting in deep anger and loathing. Blue flashed to gold and gold flashed to black in rapid succession, his large hands balling up into fists. Red painted his skin, fury erupting beneath the epidermis. “You…!” “Surprise, Neron. Happy to see me again?” The man quirked an eyebrow. Dead blue squared onto me. “I’ve come for the girl. Hand her over and I’ll let you live.” Neron jerked me behind his muscled body. He was large enough to shield me completely from him, giving me a full view of his rippling back muscles. Not a blemish in sight. After this was over, I wanted nothing more than to run my hands over him, every crevice and bulge. Wait, what the hell am I saying? Kiya, focus! My stomach did backflips and the edges of my vision blurred, reminding me that I’m in the middle of a battlefield. This was no time for tomfoolery. Pain rocketed through the gashes on my arms and the cacophony of blood- curling screaming and grunts faded into background noise. “Like hell, I’ll be handing my mate over!” He shouted with raw power. “How the fuck are you alive? Dad killed you three years ago!” “Oh, please. Nephew, you know by now that the demons of the past never escape their victims. A very handy tool called necromancy magic revitalized me to both exact my revenge and to bring the girl to my master.” Wait a damn minute! Nephew? He was Neron’s uncle? The notorious Zain! He was the one who killed Luna Celeste and Nuria, then pinned their murders on me. Holy shit! “Now, be a good boy and hand the bitch over.” … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 67” »
Chapter 66 – The Avatar +10 Bonu 00:0 “The world, even the smallest parts of it, is filled with things you don’t know.” Sherman Alexie Κίνα The sounds of book pages turning resounded through the quiet atmosphere of the library. This book didn’t have what I was looking for, so I ditched it and looked in another. I was discharged after a few days, under strict doctor’s orders to take it easy. I couldn’t strain myself because I was still in recovery. Fortunately, I was clear to train the pup trainees but cannot assert much physically. It sucked. I felt like half a wolf. Weakness was something I loathe. My healing ability remained, but wolves must take time healing from poison. My friends brought me home, yet Neron was bending over backward to ensure that I wouldn’t stress myself out. It was weird of him to watch my every move. He took my recovery seriously, ensuring that I wouldn’t lift a finger around him. Neron became an overbearing mother, fussing over my health. As much as I appreciated the care, I was not helpless. For example, I could walk up the stairs myself, but he was so insistent on carrying me up there. Any excuse to get closer to me, I guess. Shaking my thoughts free from the Alpha, I rummaged through historical records, focusing on the timeless existence of werewolves. In this sea of books, one held information on white wolves. I needed to find it. The Zircon Library was a large place in the very back of the pack house. It took a minute to find this place after such a long time. Using the rolling ladder, I climbed to the top of several bookshelves, eyeing the myriad of titles on book spines. None catch my interest. Werewolf shifting, full moon lunacy, werewolf hierarchy, I didn’t care about that. I needed to know what I was. If white wolves were so rare, there must be other reasons besides being the embodiment of Selene. I wanted to know why I was born a white wolf. Why did Selene choose me as her avatar? As I was about to part with my search, a particular book captured my attention. Hidden in plain sight, it was the only book without its title on its spine. I jerked the rolling ladder forward, pulling the dusty book from its confinements.. Several sneezes later, at a table, I examined the old, brown, leather–bound book. Nothing about it hinted to the subject within. It was cloaked in mystery. Despite its ancient appearance, there was a silvered lock that bound the book shut. A lock without a keyhole. “What the hell?” I whispered, searching for a way to unlock the book. But there was none. The one book that captured my attention in the endless sea of literature is the one book I couldn’t crack open. “Fuck!” Something in this book was calling to me, urging me to keep this piece of history. Was it instinct? Was it the weird pull I have to it? Or am I going crazy? My desperation is showing. The desire to learn my identity had never been stronger, and it was affecting my focus. Slumping in my chair, I huffed, my breath flailing my curly fringe in the air. “The journey of self–discovery is more complicated than I thought.” Chuckling to myself, I continue to 1/5 examine the book. I was so ensnared that my finger got caught in a sharp corner of the lock, nicking it. “Ow! Shit!” I waved my damn finger in the air, blood dribbling fast from the tiny wound. Some crimson droplets flung from the cut, landing on the book. One lone drop of blood landed at the sleek squared center, seeping into the metallic. Click! My mouth gaped open in shock. Did…did my blood just… “What kind of sorcery is this?” The book opened with my blood. My blood was the key. Could shit get any freakier? I cracked open the book–sputtering a little because of the ridiculous amount of dust this thing accumulated- and started flipping through the pages. Page upon page, images drawn by the delicate stroke of a brush. I see a howling wolf. Two wolves. An infant cradled inside a blanket. Goddess Selene. Many images tell at silent, wordless story. I became engrossed, the book imprisoning my focus into the tan, wrinkling pages. The world around me faded into darkness. For that moment, it was just me and the book. My breath hitched in my throat when I came across the first page with writing. The calligraphy penmanship was ancient, old as time itself. Small words filled the entire page. Every sword I read sent a droplet of an icy chill down my spine. White wolves are revered in werewolf society as perfect embodiments of their matron goddess, Selene. She, who treasures her creations dearly, made one creation that would take on her roles on the very earth she and Mother Earth watch over. The rare and sacred white wolf. The wolf blessed by beloved Selene holds power beyond imagination. They can heal. they grant protection, grant wishes, and hold the moon mysticism within their bodies. They are the physical embodiments of the wolves‘ beloved goddess. It is said that those who are granted the chance to see a white wolf would forever live in prosperity and luck. However, because the white wolf is so powerful, they are hunted by those with blackened hearts. They seek to exploit the white wolf for their selfish, sometimes deadly needs. Many white wolves in the ancient past are killed by their captors or commit suicide to escape their dreaded fates. Selene, hurt by her treasures who stray on the path of evil, vowed to only bless the world with one white wolf every century for their protection. No one shall know who the white wolf is until they shift after puberty. Even then, they do not hold the immense power history has reverend them to. Only when they awaken, could they channel the true might of the Moon Goddess. The white wolf is Selene’s avatar, her representative and most sacred child. How Selene chooses her successor is and would remain a mystery. The contents of this book are meant to be protected from the evil eye of those filled with greed. Only the next century’s avatar, whoever he or she may be, could unlock the sacred contents of this book. Chapter 66 The Avatar done by ancient magic. Sighing, I closed the book, locking it in place. Could I trust anyone with its contents? Surely, I could tell my friends, right? They always treated me like an equal. They’re the only ones who I’d allow to see this book. No one else. My mind suddenly went to Neron and the words he said when I was unconscious. Does he care that I was a white wolf? His father insisted on him mating with me to gain power. What happens when a wolf mates with a white wolf? Or an avatar in general? How many of us were out there? There was Phoebe, but that was it, as far as I knew. I left the library, hugging the book to my chest. The book was about as large as a school textbook, but the weight of the material didn’t compare to the amount of power inside. 1 “I need to hide this in my room‘ I thought to myself, beginning my journey back into my room. This large pack house doesn’t compare to the house back home, but I digress. … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 66” »
“Everything that happens to you matters to me.“– Cassandra Clare Kiya Never get poisoned. The recuperation is brutal. +105 Bonus 00:20 I feel like I’ve been hit by a freight train. Twice! My head feels like a jackhammer to concrete with my muscles feel like a mass of limp noodles, and my chest aches with every breath. My treatments will continue there was still cyanide in my system. It shocked the doctors and nurses that I survived ingesting an astronomical amount of poison. However, I knew that if I died again, Selene would just toss me back to Earth again. Adonis was cuddled at my side when I woke up, curled in a ball with an arm over my stomach. Raina revealed that he wouldn’t leave my side. My heart fluttered like bird wings. Raina stayed by my side all night, too. Deep happiness sprouted underneath the soil in my heart. I appreciate my sister and my nephew staying with me. Adonis said he did it to protect me from the bad people who wanted to hurt me. Oh, little guy, I’m the one doing the protecting! After they left, Dr. Jackson and Nurse Amara came in to draw more blood and to check my vitals. I never liked Dr. Jackson. He was the doctor that did nothing to treat my injuries when I was a slave. Many wounds and cuts festered and got infected because of his improper care. Now, he was making sure my stay in the hospital was as comfortable as possible. I must stay for a couple of days before I’m cleared for discharge. That means I’ll get many visitors. Including my favorite ones! My friends were camping out in my room with Criminal Minds blaring from the television. They brought takeout too! I may be sick, but not sick enough to indulge in Chinese chicken dumplings! “Your Alpha is going to kill the bartender who poisoned you by the end of the week,” Galen revealed, chopsticks digging at his noodles. “He’s not my Alpha, Gal.” I rolled my eyes. “As for the bartender, I heard she confessed to the crime. But I don’t know if killing her would serve any justice. I’m still breathing.” “You’re laid up in that hospital bed because she laced your drink with enough cyanide to kill a cow,” Jackie replied, folding one leg over the other. “The bitch deserves it for hurting you.” Okay, I know she deserves punishment for what she did, but I feel as though there was something else going on. This was bigger than Emily. I remember that blond bartender, but our interactions before that were non- existent. Why would she want me dead? The only person who I knew hated my guts to the point of harm was Odessa. But was she capable of taking me out? I don’t know. “Neron worked fast. I admire that.” Sapphire hopped on my bed. She was careful not to snag herself in the IV tubes. “He wasted no time hunting Emily down and securing the crime scene. Gamma Kwame found the glass with her fingerprints. She didn’t clean it in the chaos.” “That’s so sloppy,” Darien grunted, scooping up some rice. “Speaking hypothetically, if I wanted to poison Chapter 65–The Flowers +10% Bonus someone and save my ass, I’d get rid of the evidence as fast as I could. They have the glass and found potassium cyanide in her room. She didn’t plan her escape through.” 00:17 “Maybe she’s dumber than we originally thought.” Jackie shrugged. “She’s a blond.” Sapphire shot up. “Hey!” “Except you, babe. You’re so smart. The Beta shot a wink at her friend, who rolled her eyes before settling. All of this left a foul taste in my mouth. Did Emily want to be caught? Or was she working for someone else? So many questions, but so few answers! “Kiya, I wanted to ask.” I perked up as Abigail tossed her empty water bottle in the trash. “What happened before the poisoning? You came back to the party looking like a disheveled mess.” I dreaded this. The memory of Neron’s lips brushing against mine seared itself in my memory. The imprint refuses to disappear. The interse emotions, his touches–everything about it, I recall every detail. Even his eyes, looking at me with so much love. My hands covered my face while I groaned in irritation. “Something happened between Neron and me.” “Do we need to fight him?” Jackie asked, already rolling up her sleeves. “Do we need to kill him?” Sapphire inquired, crossing her arms. “Want me to castrate him?” Galen grinned, holding up a flimsy plastic knife. “Want me to spoon his eyes out of their orbitals?” Darien implored, holding up his spoon. “Must we resort to violence?” Abigail sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. “No! To all of your questions!” I yelled. “It isn’t anything bad. We almost kissed and- “Hol‘ up. Everyone responded in unison. Darien shut off the television and everyone scooted their chairs closer to my bed. L now, had five pairs of colorful eyes staring me down. Goddess, I hate being the center of attention. “…You kissed him?” Sapphire asked, the corner of her lips rising to a smirk. “No!” I defended. “I–I don’t know, almost? An actual kiss didn’t happen!” “Did your lips touch?” Galen asked. I nodded, cheeks heating up like a bonfire. “Little Bit, that is considered a kiss! “No, it is not!! Who made that a rule, anyway?” “Focus!” Abigail ordered, silencing everyone. “Kiki, tell us what happened from the beginning.” I told everything. I spared no detail. Their eyes widened the more I told. I revealed that Odessa interrupted us, which made Darien arch an eyebrow in confusion, but I went no further than that. I ran off before I could see ber and Neron argue or not. … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 65” »
Chapter 64 – The Investigation “Promises are only as strong as the person who gives them.” -Stephen Richards Neron “If my mate dies on your fucking watch, I will tear you apart! Save her!” +107 Волиз 00:37 Dr. Jackson’s amber eyes stared in mine with sheer terror, stuttering his promise to save Kiya. Nurses and doctors rush past me towards my beloved, hooking her to IVs as they work quickly. Running my hand through my hair, I roar in frustration. I don’t know how this happened! In the blink of an eye, everything changed for the worst. One moment I almost kissed Kiya for the first time, and the next, she was fighting for her life. The screams from my pack alerted me to the commotion, and there I saw Kiya convulsing in Galen’s arms. I’ve never acted so quickly in my life in a sea of chaos. Her wellbeing became my priority as I rushed her to the emergency room. Nothing else mattered to me. The pool party was shut down at once to preserve the crime scene. This wasn’t an accident. Someone did something to Kiya. Someone harmed my mate. When I find the bastard, they will pay with their life. I swear on my honor! “Neron, the investigation is underway,” Kwame told me through the mind–link. “Valerian and I are speaking to witnesses and they say before Kiya collapsed, she was at the bar.” “Tear it apart. Investigate every nook and cranny and report back to me as soon as you find something. Don’t stop questioning, press if you must!” A stampede of footsteps echoed behind me, belonging to Kiya’s friends, Raina, and oddly enough, her parents. “How is she?” Raina asked, throwing her hands on her knees to catch her breath. “I don’t know. The doctors are working on her right now.” I answered, trying my best to suppress my anger. Onyx was beyond pissed. He was enraged and out for blood. Our mate being hurt was equivalent to stabbing silver in my chest, it fucking hurt! Through the bond, her pain became my pain. It was burning as if someone lit her on fire. The culprit is dead man. Point blank. They signed their death certificate the moment they hurt my beloved! Kiya must pull through. She is too strong to go out like this. My lips still tingled from our almost–kiss. I felt nothing like that before. It was like being bathed in the purest, cleanest of enchanted waters. Her body fit perfectly in mine and her scent held me prisoner. It felt right. I wanted to feel that again. I wanted her in my arms again, to touch her, to feel her, to breathe her into me. Goddess, if I lose her again, I’ll lose my mind! “I need to see her! Raina, let me go!” Ashley shouted, trying to push through the crowd but was held back by her daughter. “Mom, please. Let the doctors do their job! There is not much we could do without getting in their way.” 1/5 Chapter 6–The Investigation Raina soothed, pulling her mother to an empty chair. “Who would do this to her?” The older woman whimpered. “Why? Why did this have to happen to her?” “Alpha.” Steven walked up to me, his neck vein throbbing with anger, “I won’t hesitate to tear their throats out for harming my baby girl. That evil being is still out there! Please find them or I will.” “That is if you get your hands on them first, Jacqueline growled before looking at me. “Remember the promise you made to our Alpha. If it was one of your wolves that harmed Kiya on your territory, Alpha Anthony will hold you responsible for your failure in the agreement.” +10 Bonu 00:3 She’s right. Per our agreement for allowing his soldiers to remain on my territory, I must ensure their safety. And I already fucking failed, and with my mate, nonetheless. This realization only enrages me even more. I ball up my fists and bite my lower lip. “I realize this, Beta Jacqueline. I will find the person responsible and their punishment will be swift.” “Alpha.” I jerk around to see Dr. Jackson standing with his clipboard. “I have news on Delta Kiya’s condition.” That was fast! I kept my mind–link open so Valerian and Kwame could listen in. “Spit it out.” “She was poisoned. Her blood analysis results detected high amounts of potassium cyanide. She ingested the poison through an alcoholic drink because her Blood Alcohol Content is elevated. If you acted a couple of minutes later, she would have died. We’ve supplied the applicable antidotes intravenously and oxygen therapy. Unfortunately, to flush the poison from her system, she must remain here for a few days.” The bartenders,” I revealed to Valerian and Kwame. “Every single one of them. Bring them to my office and bag all the glasses and send them to the lab. I want to know which glass Kiya drank out of. It should have traces of cyanide.” Valerian exclaimed. “Someone wanted her dead quickly.” Valerian concluded with a low growl “That shit kills humans within minutes.” “We’re on it, Alpha, Kwame reassured me. “We’ll alert you when ready.” “Couldn’t she have detected the cyanide in her drink?” Abigail asked curiously. “Unfortunately, not everyone can detect cyanide. This goes for both humans and werewolves. She wouldn’t have known until it was too late. Not all types of cyanide carry a scent or a taste. Potassium cyanide carries a bitter taste, but most likely the alcohol disguised it.” “Can we see her?” Sapphire asked, clutching Isaiah’s hand. “Is she awake?” Dr. Jackson shook his head. “No. She’s unconscious now, but her room is open for visitors. I recommend one person at a time! Ignoring the complaints and protests behind me, I rushed past everyone, barging into. Kiya’s room. … Read More “Untouchable Online Novel CHAPTER 64” »
