Killian’s Point of View
“Did you find anything here?” I asked one of the warriors who came with me on the location where Lucia was found on the day of her accident. The car was badly wrecked. It was a good thing that she was still alive. The doctor had already told us that we should be patient with her. The chances of her waking up are minimal right now and that news had broken Nikolai to his core. He had locked himself in the room.
Two days later, Alejandro, some of my pack warriors, and I returned to the accident site, searching for some clues. And my other warriors are looking for that car who dared to harm the most important member of my pack. She is my family and I had to bring her justice. I had already made up my mind to find that f ucker.
“Alpha, I couldn’t find anything. Lucia’s phone was damaged, and I’ve sent it for repair, but it’ll take time to get it fixed.” He reported and 1 nodded my head before dismissing him. My hands were clenched in a tight fist. I am cursing myself that whatever happened to Lucia somewhere I am responsible for this s hit.
Someone was harming the persons who were close to me only either it was my people. whom I hold dear to my heart or my aligned pack. I ran my hands through my hair taking a deep breath. I needed some time to think about what was happening right now.
“Alpha King Killian,” Alejandro called out to me. He had a laptop in his hand and a mant was standing beside him who was wearing an official police uniform. I walked towards them. Nodding to the police officer who bowed to me acknowledging my presence.
“He is the head police of this area,” Alejandro informed me. That man again bowed to
me.
“Officer,” I said nodding to him.
“He had
me with the CCTV footage which had a clear video of how the accident took place. Though the person sitting in the car is not clear, we got his nameplate and are searching for him,” Alejandro said as he turned the laptop towards me.
I saw how that f uckers car banged with Lucia’s and how he walked out of the car just to look if anyone has seen it or not. My jaws are clenched hard. It was clear from the video. that this was a planned murder but why her. Why Lucia of all the people? Did she know something which is crucial for me?
“Find him,” I growled as my alpha wanted to show his presence but I controlled him.
“Don’t worry Alpha King, we are searching for him the moment we get that rat we will drag him to you,” that man responded.

Chapter 40
“Did you talk to Aiden?” I asked as we were returning back to the Ecl*pse Pack.
“Yes and he should be already on the way to the Ecl*pse Pack,” He replied.
After two hours the car stopped in front of the Alpha’s mansion. I went down and walked in the direction of the living room. Aiden and his mate were already there sitting with Nickolai and the Alpha.
“Killian,” Aiden said but I was quick to question him..
“Before you say anything, why is Lucia so frequently visiting you?” I asked and that ceases his mouth.
“And I demand answers, Aiden. Someone is targeting my pack, and they might be among us,” I stated firmly, crossing my arms over my chest. The room was charged with my alpha aura, and Aiden growled, sensing the impact on his mate.
“Are you again accusing me for the things I didn’t do,” Aiden growled.
“Alpha….” Nickolai said.
“And you shouldn’t have left her on her own to go to visit a pack alone, Nickolai. You should have thought about the danger we are already facing from that rogue alpha,” I wanted some answers from them but I was only met with silence. I sighed they were hiding something from me and it was clear in front of me.
It was pretty late in the evening when I finally reached home. I didn’t get any answers from them. I had also asked Alejandro to look for that woman. I need to know about
her too.
The moment I stepped inside I leaned against the door and stared down the hallway. The memory came rushing to me of how Kiara usually waited for me in the living room whenever I came late home from meetings. She always sat near the bonfire with a book in her hand. I sighed. How many years have passed without her by my side?
Pushing myself away from the door I head upstairs passing our old bedroom. I pause and stare at the door. It has been four years and I haven’t used this room. Rihanna was persistent in renovating this room to her own taste and wanted to shift with me in here but I was highly against this.
I stood there for a while as the memory kept flashing in my mind like a broken movie. Why am I thinking so much about her?
“Well look who decided to come back and have the audacity to show his face,” Dad’s crisp voice makes me turn to him. I frowned at his hurting words. But what could I accept from him? When did he ever politely speak with me?

Chapter 10
“I have been busy looking at what has been going on lately,” I say quietly, not wanting to argue with him. I moved past him. I needed rest and talking to him would not give me any peace.
“Killian!” He called out to me in his alpha’s voice.
“Look what is happening in the pack. The elders and aligned packs alpha wanted answers from us. Fix it or give up your title…” my brows knitted in anger. I am the one who has given everything to this pack to make this pack better and he was threatening me in the name of title?
“I believe you’ve grown accustomed to the standards I elevated this pack to. We are simply reverting to the way it was when you were the Alpha…” I retorted back harshly.
Not wanting to listen to any of his cruel words I turned my back on him.
“Killian! Don’t dare to turn your back on me,” He warns
“NO… but I am the Alpha now and you better not disrespect me,” I snarled, my eyes. flashing with a fierce glare at him..
“Because of me, you are standing in the Alpha position…”
“It is not because of you, Dad, it is because of me. I have earned the title of Alpha King for my accomplishment and the challenges I face. I won’t spare that f ucker until I have him by his throat,” a deep growl resonated within my chest. We glared at each other and before this got out of hand I turned my back and went in the direction of one of the
guest rooms.
A week has passed since that day, and things are still extremely heated at home. We are having a meeting in my office as I started to plan to build up more security for my pack safety.
Austin still appeared sombre, but I trusted him with our responsibilities which I knew he would be able to manage. Suddenly, the room burst open with a loud bang, and my Delta rushed in, his face reflecting horror, as if he had witnessed the impossible.
“Alpha…
“Alpha, she is back…” He uttered, making my brows knitted in confusion. Who is he referring to? Just then, my phone rang, and upon hearing the words, a chilling sensation swept over my entire b*dy making my alpha growl in pleasure.
“Alpha King.. Luna… Luna Kiara is back…”
