Kayden’s POV
I walked into my room, into the bathroom and splashed cold water on my face, I needed it.
I could not understand how I was feeling precisely, yeah, I had kind of felt this before but then it just could not be.
“Kayden,” Jay called.
“Jay, can you please not question me right now? I am also at a confusing point.” I replied him knowing very well what would follow.
I stared at my reflection in the mirror and pressed my lips into a thin line. I walked away from the bathroom and grabbed my bag, I yanked out my laptop from it and prepared to do some work.
Work as usual would take me out of this world of total unseriousness, this world of useless fun that I had long given up.
A knock came on the door a couple of times.
“In.” I groaned and somehow I wanted it to be Mantha.
But hell! How stupid that thought was!
The door opened and he walked in, James.
“Alpha Kayden, I have escorted them there and they very well do seem to like the place,” he said to me with a bow.
“Good, you can leave,” I said to him but he waited a moment.
“Alpha Carl was here yesterday to check on you,” he added and I sat up immediately, placing my laptop aside, my brows creasing at the same moment.
Alpha Carl was not someone I would love to see at all. A once upon Time friend was not my choice of person to see.
“I don’t want him coming into this place. His presence is prohibited.” I warned.
“Yes, Alpha Kayden,” James replied and walked away.
I looked forward sharply as I remembered the good old days when I was living in the pure deceit that there was good, love in the world but not I have my eyes opened, there’s no such thing as good or love in this world. Carl was proof, Diane was proof, everyone was!
Samantha’s POV
“What the heck are you talking about?” I asked, quite shyly.
“You have no idea? You are just too clueless! If I was the one he treated so specially, I would… I would throw away all these huge big clothing.” Cassie said, holding onto my gown.
“What do you mean?”I furrowed my brows.
“All I mean is that you have to be beautiful and elegant, how can you do that if it’s not by wearing sexy clothes? Just take a look at Miss. Lauren, is she as beautiful as you are? No! Is she curvy? No! But then she wears some skin-tight clothes to show off her little curves.”
“So you mean…..”
“That’s right! I mean you also should wear clothes like that. Make Alpha Kayden see how beautiful you are, let him talk heads over heels for you.”
“What the….. why am I even listening to you? Alpha Kayden is just helping me.”
“As for what?”
“As his sister… I guess.”I replied to her even though I also wished that it would not be so but again that was my wishful thinking.
“His sister….. What the heck are you talking about? Back then, when the both of you kissed… Do siblings kiss so romantically?” She asked and I hit her shoulders.
“Stop thinking that way, it was… t was just a rush of emotions I guess,” I replied.
“Wow, you’re even blushing.” she pointed out and I buried my face in my palm.
“Forget about it, Alpha Kayden is too good to be mine,” I mumbled, being serious now.
That was the reality, no matter how many times I tried to think of it I could not just see how he would pick me especially when he gets his
“What the heck are you saying? Do you realize how many ladies want to even be….”
“Cassie, that’s enough! Please let’s talk about something else.” I cut her off in a quite rude manner.
Her words, she thought were advice and comforting words were making me feel uncomfortable as I just keep on thinking about how not good enough I am.
“I am sorry I yelled at you.” I apologized to her.
“It… It’s okay… I was talking too much anyway.” she replied.
“What do you think we should do next? Seems like we are the only maids here for now….. so we would have to meet James to tell is what we are going to do, right?” Cassie asked.
“Probably, he seems to be the butler here,” I replied with a chuckle and Cassie too did the same.
We settled in our little luggage and held hands, walking out of the quarters.
We walked for a while but we could not find James anywhere, this went on till it was clear that we were both fed up of searching for James anywhere.
“How about we just take a small walk around and take a look at our new environment?” Cassie asked.
“Okay… Sure but then what if we get into some areas where Alpha Kayden forbids anyone from going to?” I asked.
“You are too scared, why would there be a forbidden place in this beautiful place? C’mon, let’s go.” Cassie urged.
“Life is all about risks.” Cara too urged.
Okay then!
“Let’s move.”
We both jogged and leapt, walking around till we got out of the quarters surroundings entirely. It led to a small garden, the garden seemed to be the most beautiful one I had ever seen.
It was small, very small but very beautiful you made me believe that good thing as usual does not come in huge quantities and even when they do, they do not last, just as Alpha Kayden being good to me would not last when he gets his mate.
“Take a look….. an orange tree.” chuckled remembering the day when I had hurriedly climbed onto an orange tree.
I blew a kiss into the air and breathed out.
Just then, I felt a sharp pain, my bones cracked and I instantly fell to the floor.
“Aaaargh” I groaned and writhed in pains.
It felt like a million bones in me were breaking and that was when it came to me…..
I was having my first shape-shift
