Chapter 36
The King's Rage RAVEN Kiara’s pain lingered , even when she jumped from that window . I hated seeing her like this, I just wish I could do more for her . I sat on the ground feeling a little lost , I wanted to go down and beat that big, bad Alpha up . He really needed to remove the stick that was stuck up his ass and stop being such a dick ! How could he just do that to Kiara ? I wish she understood this wasn't like the Damon and her situation , it was clear she liked the king more than just sexually . I mean , yes, the man had a fine ass that made you want to squeeze it — not to mention , he was absolutely tasty looking — but for him to hurt Kiara like this , outshone all his hot looks .
I sighed deeply wishing I could ask Liam for advice , but I knew I couldn't. I missed him and Damon . Things seemed so much calmer knowing they were there looking out for us both . I was torn out of my thoughts when I felt the entire ground shake . Something had happened . I hurried to the door and left the room , shuddering when I heard the scariest growl I had ever heard . It filled m e with fear, I felt myself tremble under the power that seemed to seep into every corner of the mansion . I hesitated . Should I go see ? I could hear things breaking and shouting .
I slowly made my way out of the room . ” Alpha ! Stop ! ” “ Alejandro ! You will kill him ! * Darien’s voice came . I stopped at the top of the stairs ; my heart seemed to pause at the sight before me The entire hall was unrecognisable , whilst a wolf and Lycan were fighting . I had never seen such a terrifying sight in my life . A Lycan ... It was true ... He was something completely different ... He towered far above his human height of 6 foot 5 inches . His fur was so black it looked almost blue and the suffocating aura that rolled off of him made my knees weak . Twelve warriors were trying to stop him from killing the large glossy black wolf .
Rayhan ... I could smell the blood and my heart thumped , feeling a fear I had never felt before . I saw Serena making her way around the warriors and Darien as she hurried upstairs to me . “ What happened ?! Claire mind linked Darien . “ She whispered , dragging me back down the hall .. “ He ... He kissed Kiara ... Although he’s engaged to Jasmin ... and then I don't know what Rayhan must have said ... " I said . Kiara needed to stay away from him , he was dangerous ... “ What ? Engaged to Jasmin ? That ... Oh hell ... but I thought ... ” Serena shook her head . ” Stay with Kiara . When he’s like this, it's better everyone is out of his way . Jasmin took Raihana out the window and is staying away . It's better if you come with me too . The both of you.” “ Umm, Kiara went fora run...” I said . I felt a little unsettled . Serena frowned , before we both flinched as the entire ground shook once more .
" Get Rayhan to the hospital now ! “ Darien growled . My heart sank . Was he ok ? Goddess , this Alpha really was an A — grade asshole ! “ Ok girl, come on we need to leave . I'll find Kiara ... Can she ... I mean, she can't see at night, can she ? “ Serena asked me as she pulled me towards Kiara's room, clearly not wanting to come off as offensive in any way . ” We will leave out the window . I'll tell someone to find Kiara . You can stay at mine until things are ok, Raihana’s already there." I nodded ; this trip was turning into a nightmare ... I just hoped Kiara and Rayhan were ok ... KIARA I don't know how long I've been running .
Blindly knocking into things at times , not that I cared . The pain took the edge off the one in my chest . I had ignored the patrol wolves around his territory and just ran past them . My leg was hurting now and my limp was worse . I finally sunk down near a river, but I didn't get to rest when Greg's voice filled my head . * Princess , where are you ? There's an entire squad out searching for you ! It's not safe out there ! * He sounded alarmed and I cursed internally , hoping he didn't tell dad ." Relax Greg , I'm just chilling near the river.” * The Beta says you need to tell us your exact location . We need to make sure you are safe . Alpha Elijah will have our heads . * I sighed . I'm not sure where exactly , I can't see remember ? Just, near a river ... * I replied
They'd probably find me soon, I'm sure the border patrol would probably know what direction I went in . I covered my eyes with my paws although all I could see was the glow of the moon . The pain I had felt had eased up a little , I was now angrier at the fact that he had gotten to me again . I swear by Selene the Goddess , I won't let it happen again . I would focus on Valentin and the hospital , leave early in the morning and return late at night . Hopefully , when aunty Indigo comes , we can go stay at hers . I'm sure she'd happily let Raihana stay too ... I sighed deeply, trying to ignore the anguish that was eating me up from inside * * Princess ! Harry's voice came . I resisted a groan and stood up , trying not to limp .
I had overworked myself. * Come.’ He said . I felt him brush my side , urging me forward . I took a few steps before I stumbled , he growled . “ He said . * Shift . I'll carry you . “I don't have clothes." I whined . I preferred Greg, he was nicer . Harry was a meanie ! I could sense a few other wolves around and then heard Serena's voice . ” You're in pain Kiara . Here , change into this, ” She pushed something against my mouth and I caught it before I stumbled , unsure where to change . ” All of you turn around . ” She commanded . I loved the Beta female , she was cool . Her commanding voice was clear and I was happy when she told me I was ok to change . I shifted , wincing at the pain that was spasming up my ankle to my knee .
She helped me put the oversized shirt on . “ Right . She's dressed . “ She said . I felt her shift and the sound of bones breaking , then Harry's annoying muzzle prodding my back . * Get on . I made a face and got onto his back . The man was annoying ! But in all fairness, I was glad , I could barely walk . The Alpha got angry . Is that why you left ? Greg and I saw several warriors go to restrain him ; he was going to kill his nephew from what we heard . * My blood ran cold . * Oh no ! Is Rayhan ok ?! ** He was taken to the hospital . He was impressive and actually attacked back, got a few hits in too, but the Lycan king is a beast . * Harry said . “ I'm not happy with you staying there ... " * He won't attack me . * I said through the link with such conviction that I wondered why I was so sure .
He had hurt me emotionally ... What's to stop him from hurting me physically too ? ” Take me to the hospital . * I sensed his disapproval through the link . I'm not sure that's a good idea." ” That's an order . My command resonated strongly and he didn't reply . If the situation wasn't so dire, I'd have smiled at how quickly he submitted . After all , I was the daughter of two Alphas . Blood , wounds and broken bones . Rayhan had it all . Three doctors were rushing around tending to him as I stared through the glass . We had reached the hospital quick enough and I was shocked a t the state he was in . “ He's bleeding too quickly ! “ Blood pressure is to low . “ * His heart rate is dropping ! “I simply stood outside the door, knowing h e was in this condition because of me
I had to help . I could see Doctor Callum rushing around . Would he let me help ? The urge to go to Rayhan was growing , without even bothering with Serena and Harry , I pushed the door open and stepped inside .. “ Kiara ! You can't go in ! “ Serena called , alarmed . Doctor Callum looked at me and motioned for Serena to leave . I didn't speak to him and made my way over to the bed . I placed my hand on Rayhan’s bleeding chest, looking at three large gashes that ran across it from his shoulder to his waist . How could Alejandro have done this ? I saw him flinch when my hand touched the open gashes . Yeah , I knew this was not hygienic or smart but there was something deep inside me urging me along . I wanted him to get better .
Blood coated my hands like water and I didn’t even notice that the doctors had stopped working and moving , “ Kia uh ... " Rayhan groaned . His eyes fluttered open slightly . “ What are you ... ? “ He looked down at his stomach, then back into my eyes that were fixed on him . I didn't realise what else he said because suddenly I felt my energy drain as I collapsed . All I remembered was someone catching me before I hit the ground ...
