Chapter 136

Daniel let out a sigh as they listened to Zane scream as he crashed the room he was in.

“Wow, I’ve never seen Zane lose his calm before,” Raymond muttered. noveldrama

“When it comes to Kiara, I’m not even sure he knows what the word calm means. Especially now that he feels hopeless because we can’t seem to find her” Raymond sighed at Daniel’s word.

“So what are we going to do about him? Are we just going to let him take out his rage on the whole house? Hell by the time he’s done, everything will be in ruins” Daniel sighed.

“Don’t worry. You can leave, I’ll handle him” Raymond raised an eyebrow.

“Are you sure? He seems pretty angry. Are you sure you can calm him down?” Daniel shook his head.

“Of course I can’t calm him down. The only one that can is Kiara. The only thing I can do right now is try to reason with him. I might get a few Injuries here and there but at least I won’t die…. Hopefully” Raymond sighed as he placed his hand on Daniel’s shoulder.

“Good luck, brother” Daniel watched as Raymond walked away before turning to the door of the room Zane was in.

He flinched slightly when Zane let out a howl. He took a deep breath then knocked on the door.

“Zane, I know you are mad and you have every right to be but I think you should be putting in this energy into finding Kiara. We can do it, we just have to think like Liam. Obviously he’s working with someone else and once we find out who they are, maybe we’ll have a lead” He murmured and then silence followed afterwards.

The only thing Daniel could hear was his breathing.

“He’s working with Levi’s father” Daniel’s eyes widened when he heard Zane say.

“What? How do you know that?” He asked and after a while, the door to the room opened up and a very pitiful Zane appeared in Daniel’s view.

The memory of how broken Zane was two years ago after Kiara left flashed before Daniel’s eyes as he stared at Zane. Seeing Zane like this just felt so wrong.

“Are you okay?” Daniel questioned softly.

“Liam is working with Levi’s father” Zane muttered, totally ignoring Daniel’s question.

“And how do you sound so sure about that?” Zane sighed.

“They both have similar goals, to destroy me and also, Levi’s father’s men had attacked our pack some weeks ago” Daniel furrowed his eyebrows.

“Were they the ones that killed the wolves?” Zane shook his head.

“No, I think those are Liam’s men. They were the ones that attacked but no one got hurt. Levi says his father was just trying to see how strong we really were” Daniel’s eyes widened as he shook his head.

“So you think Liam and Levi’s father teamed up just to destroy you?” Zane shook his head.

“Not just me, all of us although I don’t think Liam wants to destroy the whole pack,he just wants you and I dead so if you think about it, they both have conflicting interests” Daniel nodded slowly even though he didn’t understand a thing Zane was saying.

“So what does that mean?” Zane turned to him.

“I need to speak with Liam. We need to reach out to him” Daniel frowned.

“You know he’s not going to listen to us and come over” Zane smirked.

“He doesn’t have to come over. No matter what, I’m still his alpha so he can’t shut me out of his head completely” Daniel nodded.

“Yes he can’t but he can choose to ignore you” Zane Scoffed.

“Don’t worry about it, I’ll get to him. You just focus on pinpointing Kiara’s location. I’ll handle the rest but with the way things are going, we are going to get attacked and we need to be ready” Daniel nodded.

“We always are”

Kiara gasped for air as the old water splashed on her face. When she opened her eyes, she saw Samantha staring at her with a smirk.

“It seems the silver isn’t doing anything for you. How can you fall asleep?” Kiara glared at her.

“Why are you here? To torture me? Taunt me?” Samantha sighed as she threw the bowl on the ground and crossed her arms.

“For some fucked up reason, I’m not allowed to hurt you and it’s pissing me off. I thought you were brought here to be killed but apparently you’re bait for Zane and if you get injured, Liam believes Zane might actually go ballistic and the plan will be ruined” Kiara furrowed her eyebrows. Liam?

“What do you mean by your statement? Is… is Liam in this with you?” Samantha giggled.

“Oh you poor little thing. It seems you haven’t been updated. Well, for your information, Liam is the monster” Kiara gasped with her eyes wide.

“What?! That… that can’t be true” Samantha tilted her head.

“I don’t fucking care if you don’t believe but he is the monster and guess what he wants? Zane and Daniel dead. I don’t care about Zane anymore so Liam can pretty much do whatever he wants with him but you, you’re mine. I want to make you bleed over and over again” Samantha murmured then smiled so wildly that Kiara couldn’t help but shiver at how sinister it was.

“No matter what Liam is, he can’t defeat Zane and you know that” Samantha scoffed.

“Really? Is that what you think? Liam is ten times stronger than any wolf alive and that includes Zane. He could have killed him since but I guess Liam wanted it to be more dramatic” Kiara glared at her.

“Liam may be stronger but he’s definitely not smarter. Let’s watch and see who wins the battle shall we? And while we do that, I’ll make sure I drag you to hell where you belong” Samantha frowned then a smirk appeared on her face.

“As long as you’re coming with me, I don’t mind going to hell” Kiara grinned.

“Oh honey, that’s the thing. You’re going to be all alone here and in hell”…

Chapter 137

Samantha glared at her.

“You!” She raised her hand to slap Kiara across the face but a man appeared and grabbed her hand.

“I thought you were told not to hurt her anymore?” Kiara turned towards the man and saw that it was that man she met yesterday that looked familiar.

“But Lucien, she needs to be taught a lesson. She can’t talk to me like that” Samantha whined while he rolled his eyes.

“Go outside, Samantha. If you can’t stand her then stop coming here” Samantha stared at him with wide eyes then scoffed before stomping her way out of the room, banging the door behind her.

“Lucien? Why does that name sound so familiar?” Kiara uttered, turning his attention to her. He smiled slightly.

“Well I am Levi’s brother” She gasped as her eyes widened.

“What? Why are you keeping me here? This is all your father’s plan isn’t it? Where is Heather?” She questioned and he sighed.

“Don’t worry about Heather, she’s with Liam” Kiara’s eyes widened with fear.

“What?! He’s going to kill her. He’s the monster” Lucien shook his head then pace his hand on her shoulder to calm down.

“I don’t know about the relationship between them but he didn’t seem like he wanted to hurt her” Kiara shook her head frantically.

“Please I need to know she’s okay, I don’t trust him. Please” Lucien sighed then nodded.

“I’ll check on her for you but you have to calm down, okay?” Kiara furrowed her eyebrows with confusion written on her face.

“Why are you talking to me like that?” He raised an eyebrow.

“Like what?”

“You kidnapped me and you are trying to use me as bait to kill Zane so why are you talking to me like I’m not a prisoner?” Lucien smiled.

“Look, I didn’t want any part in this. Heck, I don’t even know what happened between my father and wolves, I was never told but I’m doing this all for my brother who is in a lot of trouble now because he’s associated with your kind. He likes you therefore I’m not going to hurt you and I’m not going to let anyone else hurt you” She frowned.

“What do you mean Levi is in trouble?” He sighed.

“Our father wants him dead along with you guys and we can’t let that happen. Not only is he our brother but he’s the next leader of the mafia” Kiara was still confused about the whole situation.

“How does capturing me help him? If he finds out I’m here, he’s going to get me out” He sighed.

“I’ll convince him somehow. We are not going to hurt you but I want my father to believe Levi was the one who captured you when he arrives tomorrow. I want him to believe that Levi has totally turned his back on your kind. Only then can he be saved” Kiara stared at him for a while then let out a scoff.

“Have you told Levi about your plan? And what makes you think he can’t protect himself? What makes you think he can’t come up with a plan himself?” Lucien frowned.

“Of course I know he can but…”

“You don’t trust him, you don’t trust that he’s going to make the right decision, do you?” He sighed.

“Kiara…”

“No, you listen to me. Levi is smart and he’s brave for going against your father to save me despite all the trauma he had been out through but if you guys keep making him feel like he can’t do anything right or nothing he ever does is the right way, he’s going to retreat back into his shell and he would be afraid to voice out his opinion. I’m not saying you shouldn’t care for him but speak with him first before you do certain things and make sure he understands and is in support. He already hatched a plan with Zane to defeat your father but now that your father and Liam know I’m here, that plan won’t work out anymore” Lucien’s frown deepened as he thought over what she said then he let out a smile.

“I can see why Levi is in love with you, Kiara” Her eyes widened slightly.

“Oh… erm I don’t think he’s in love with me anymore” Lucien rolled his eyes.

“Keep telling yourself that. I’ll take your advice and I’ll talk to him with Sebastian. Levi must be very angry” She nodded.

“As he should. I’m sure you all can come up with a plan and if you can, Zane should be on board as well since he’s the one they’re really after” Lucien nodded.

“I’m sorry you got dragged into this” She smiled.

“Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine. Talk to Levi” Lucien nodded.

“I’ll ask someone to bring you food, okay?” She nodded immediately because she was starving.

As soon as Lucien was gone, she let out a sigh. Well it was a good thing Levi’s brother wasn’t bad but what was she going to do about Samantha and that torturer?

She couldn’t help thinking about Zane. She hoped he was alright.

[Let’s meet up] Zane said through the mind link then waited for a few minutes before Liam replied back.

[Don’t be so eager to see me, Zane. We’ll meet soon and have a proper chat] Zane rolled his eyes at his words. noveldrama

[If you believe you’re stronger than me Liam, you won’t be hiding. Unless, you are still scared of me] Zane had a smirk on his face. He knew taunting Liam was the only way to get him to break.

[Where should we meet up?] Zane grinned.

[Meet me in front of that old school we used to hang out tonight at eight. You are free to come with back ups if you want. I know fighting alone with Me can be pretty scary] Then Zane blocked him before Liam could reply then he glanced at the mirror in front of him and his face and eyes hardened.

“I’m coming for you, Kiara. Please be okay”…

Chapter 138

Heather raised her head as she heard the door open and watched as Liam walked into the room, locking the door with a key behind him.

His eyes trailed towards the tray of untouched food on the table and a frown appeared on his face.

“You didn’t eat, why?” She scoffed then turned to him.

“Why? How about you tell me why I’m being locked up in here like a criminal? Let me out, I need to make sure Kiara is safe” He sighed then walked up to the table, grabbed the plate of food before walking back to her.

“Open your mouth and eat. Think about the child, Heather” But she just glared at him, refusing to open her mouth.

“Heather!” He called out more firmly this time and even though his tone made her flinch, she stood her ground.

“What? Are you going to hit me and force me to eat, huh?” He frowned.

“You know I would never hurt you” She scoffed.

“I know? Liam I don’t know anything anymore. Some days ago, I thought you were madly in love with me and I thought we were going to have a family together” He dropped the tray on the table then squatted in front of her and wiped away her tears with his thumbs.

“We can still be a family, Heather. As long as the baby is mine, we will be a family and so much more” She frowned. noveldrama

“So if the baby isn’t yours, what then?” His face suddenly turned cold and she saw someone else, someone she didn’t know and wouldn’t like to know.

“It has to be” She didn’t say anything after that and they just kept staring at each other. After a while, he smiled then caressed her cheek.

“To make you happy, I’ll take you to go see Kiara, okay?” Her eyes widened.

“Really?” He nodded.

“Yes but you have to eat if not we won’t leave” She frowned.

“How do I know after I eat, you won’t lock me up in here?” He rolled his eyes.

“Give me some credit, Heather. Eat up, you don’t want to starve yourself and the baby” She sighed then reluctantly began eating with Kiara on her mind. She felt like throwing up halfway through because she really wasn’t hungry but held it in. She really hoped that wasn’t a bad thing.

“That’s enough, I can’t eat anymore” She muttered as she turned her head away from him. Liam stared at her for a while then sighed before dropping the plate on the table.

“Fine but you are finishing that when we come back, okay?” She sighed. She really didn’t like him bossing her around but she didn’t want to offend him so he wouldn’t go back on his word.

“Okay” He smiled then reached out a hand towards her as he stood up from the chair.

“Let’s get this over with” He muttered then led her out of the room and towards where Kiara was being kept.

As they walked, Heather kept glancing around for landmarks because she was going to escape here with Kiara. She just needed a plan.

They passed by some men in the hallway but they just stared and said nothing and Heather knew it was probably because they were scared of Liam. They weren’t wolves so she could understand.

Liam opened a door and her eyes widened at how dark the stairs were. Was Kiara being kept there?

Chills ran Down her spine as they walked into the dark. She couldn’t hear or see anything.

“Is… is Kiara being kept down here?” She couldn’t help but ask but instead of replying to her, Liam opened up a door and she gasped when she saw Kiara sitting on a chair with silver chains wrapped around her body. She was asleep but Heather knew she was in terrible and uncomfortable pain.

“Kiara!” She called out loudly as she ran towards her. Her voice jolted Kiara awake and her eyes widened when she saw Heather.

“Don’t come any closer, you’ll hurt yourself” Kiara uttered, making Heather stop right in front of her.

Tears rolled down Heather’s cheeks as she stared down at her friend who had been glowing just a few days ago, looking so worn out and tired.

“Why… why is she tied up with chains Liam?!!” Heather screamed as she turned to Liam whilst still crying but Liam just stared back at her with no emotion in his eyes.

“It’s okay, Heather. I’m going to be okay so don’t worry about me and don’t stress yourself too much. It’s not going to be good for the baby and…”

“Oh for fuck sake, stop worrying about my child! You’re the one in pain, not me and I can’t bear watching you sit there while those chains burn your skin off. Why are you letting this happen, Liam? Even if you want to take revenge on Zane and Daniel, Kiara has nothing to do with this! She has suffered enough!” Heather screamed as she cried. Kiara bit her lower lip to stop herself from crying but it slipped out before she could stop it.

Even though she was in a lot of pain, she didn’t want to show it and give them the satisfaction of seeing her in pain.

“Liam please take her out of here, this won’t be good for the baby” Kiara muttered and he nodded but before he could take a step further, Heather pulled out a butter knife she had placed inside her dress when Liam was looking and held it above her stomach with both hands.

“Heather, what the fuck are you doing?!” Kiara screamed with her eyes wide in shock and fear and Liam’s expression mirrored hers.

“Heather, don’t be stupid. Drop the knife down now!” Liam yelled but she just scoffed.

“This child is the only reason I’m not dead or strapped to a chair, right Liam? If I kill it, would you kill me?” He glared at her.

“I said don’t be stupid, Heather! What do you hope to gain by doing that?! Because I can assure you Kiara isn’t getting out of here till Zane is captured and killed so stop acting like a fucking child!” The tears flowed freely down her cheeks and her heart clenched with pain.

“You don’t love me anymore, do you?” Heather muttered and before she could hear a reply, an aching pain shot right through her stomach and she fell on her knees groaning in pain…

Chapter 139

Kiara screamed as she tried standing up from the chair and rushing towards Heather but the silver chains were binding her back.

“Heather!” She screamed as Liam rushed towards Heather and gathered her in his arms.

“Wait, I need to be with her! Liam!” Kiara screamed as tears streamed down her cheeks as Liam walked away with Heather.

“Shut the hell up! This is all your fault! You better hope nothing happens to her or else” Liam muttered as he glared at Kiara before rushing out of the dark room, closing the door behind him.

“Liam! Don’t leave me here! I need to make sure she’s okay! Someone please!” Kiara yelled but it seemed no one could hear her. She couldn’t even hear Liam’s footsteps anymore and it felt like her heart was breaking into pieces.

“Moon goddess, please I’m begging you, don’t let what happened to me happen to Heather. Please, I’m begging you” Kiara silently prayed while crying as her head hung low.

Where was Lucien when she needed him?!

Levi stared straight ahead, refusing to glance at Lucien and Sebastian who were standing at the side.

Lucien glanced at Sebastian then let out a sigh before walking over to stand in front of Levi.

“We know you’re mad at us but you need to understand that we had your best interest at heart” Levi scoffed but didn’t say anything in return.

“Listen, we don’t have time for this, Levi. Father comes in tonight and you need to be prepared for him” Sebastian uttered and Levi turned to him.

“Oh? Haven’t you guys already prepared me for him or is there something else I need to do?” Every word he uttered, dripped with Sarcasm which made Lucien sigh.

“Listen, I understand now that we should have spoken to you about this before taking actions, okay? It’s not because we don’t trust you, Levi. That’s far from it because Sebastian and I both know you’re going to be a great leader but we are just scared for you and if there’s any way we can lift your burden, we’ll do it in a heartbeat” Levi sighed then he turned to Levi.

“But what can be done now? It seems father already has a plan and now that he’s working with Liam, anything is possible” Sebastian was about to speak but Lucien stopped him.

“I know you can think of a plan, Levi. Kiara said we should listen to you and that’s what we are going to do” Levi furrowed his eyebrows.

“Kiara? When did you speak with Kiara?” Sebastian laughed nervously.

“You see we might have kidnapped her and her friend” Levi abruptly stood up from his chair as he glared at them.

“You what?!” Lucien sighed.

“Father and Liam want to use her as bait” Levi scoffed.

“I’d rather die than put her in trouble. Take me to her” Lucien frowned.

“Levi, she’s…” Levi grabbed onto Lucien’s collar as he pulled him close while staring intently into his eyes.

“Take me to her, now!” Lucien sighed then nodded before leading Levi out of the room and towards the dark basement Kiara was being kept in.

From the outside, they could hear her screaming and crying for help which made Levi’s heart skip a beat. He barged into the room and his eyes widened when he took in the sight in front of him.

Kiara’s shirt was stained with her blood and she was sweating and crying profusely. He rushed up to her and squatted in front of her.

“Are you okay? Did they hurt you? Lucien, get this chain off her, now” She shook her head frantically as she grabbed Levi’s hand.

“Forget about me, I need to know if Heather is okay. Please find out if she’s okay” Levi nodded.

“Okay what happened to her? Where is she?” He questioned as he wiped away her tears.

“Her stomach suddenly began to ache and she fell to her knees. Liam rushed her out of here and I’m sure he took her to the doctor but I’m worried, Levi. I need to know she’s okay, I need to know the child is okay” Levi nodded.

“Calm down, okay? Sebastian, go find out how Heather is doing now” Sebastian nodded and immediately ran out of the room while Levi tried to calm Kiara down.

“She’s going to be okay, alright? The child is going to be okay” Levi murmured then straightened up then turned to Lucien.

“Get these chains off her right now” Before Lucien could say anything, Samantha walked into the room. noveldrama

“He can’t do that. She stays like that” Levi turned to her with a raised eyebrow.

“And who are you?” She scoffed.

“I guess you won’t remember me but I’m Kiara’s sister unfortunately” He rolled his eyes then turned to Lucien.

“The Keys, now” Samantha smiled.

“The key isn’t with him, silly. Liam wasn’t sure he could trust him so he handed the keys over to me and no, I’m not giving them to you” Levi sighed as he massaged his temples then he glanced around the room till his eyes caught something glinting by the side.

He walked up to it and fortunately, it was a silver rod. He picked it up then turned to Samantha with craziness in his eyes.

“You see, I don’t usually hurt girls, I don’t hurt anyone in general but if you don’t hand me the key, I’m going to show you why I’m going to be the next leader of the most powerful mafia in the world” Fear flashed through Samantha’s eyes but she covered it up with a snort.

“I’m a wolf, a filthy human like you can’t defeat me even with silver” Levi smiled.

“Do you want to test out your theory, Samantha?” She pursed her lips then glanced at Kiara before glancing back at him.

“You can’t release her. Liam is going to kill you if you do” He rolled his eyes then walked over to her and outstretched his hand.

“The key, I won’t ask again”…

Chapter 140

Samantha huffed as she gave the key to Levi then she glared at them before storming her way out of the room.

Levi rolled his eyes then turned towards Kiara and unlocked the chains around her.

“Levi, I don’t want to say this but I don’t think releasing her is going to be a good idea” Lucien commented earning a sigh from Levi.

“I know that” Levi muttered then turned to Levi.

“Get me a rope, okay?” Lucien nodded, then left the room to get a rope, leaving Levi and Kiara alone.

“I’m sorry I have to do this but Kiara, you’re going to be used as bait again. You need to keep being here for my plan to work but I’ll make sure you don’t get hurt, okay?” Kiara stared into his eyes then nodded with a smile.

“I trust you” A wide smile appeared on his face and at that moment, Sebastian walked into the room with a smile.

“You don’t have to worry, Kiara. The doctor Liam had made stay here for Heather is having her checked up and he said she just has to rest but all in all, there’s nothing wrong with her and her baby” Kiara heaved a loud sigh of relief as tears of joy ran down her cheeks.

Levi immediately wrapped his arms around her and began patting her back.

“I told you it was going to be okay, didn’t I? Now stop worrying yourself, okay? I’m going to take care of this and make sure we all win in the end” Levi murmured, then pulled away from her and wiped away her tears with his thumb.

“Are you going to work with Zane? Can you please help me check up on him and make him know that I’m okay?” Levi was about to say something when Lucien walked in with the rope.

“This was the only rope I could find” Levi turned to him and sighed when he saw the deadbeat rope in Lucien’s hand.

“Just give it to me” Lucien handed the rope over to Levi and he gently tied the rope around Kiara.

“Just know that, anything I say starting from now, I don’t mean it, okay?” He whispered so lowly that she was sure she was the only one that heard him. Before he could ask what he meant, Liam walked into the room.

“I thought I made it clear that I didn’t want to see Levi anywhere near her?” They all turned towards him and Levi let out a sigh before getting up from his squatting position and walking up to Liam.

Before he could get closer to Liam, Sebastian stopped him.

“He’s dangerous,I don’t think you should go close to him” Liam smirked.

“You should listen to your brother, Levi” Levi pushed Sebastian aside as he walked forward.

“Kiara did nothing wrong to you” He uttered and Liam nodded.

“Yeah she didn’t but she’s connected to people that did and….”

“Okay I get it, you’re making Kiara suffer because Zane loves her which means, if Heather wasn’t pregnant with your child, she would be suffering the same fate as Kiara?” Liam frowned.

“You don’t know what you’re talking about,” Levi smiled.

“Look, I really don’t care about any of this but what I do care about is Kiara and if you think about it, we are so much alike. I’ve also been looked down on by everyone around me and the girl I happened to

fall in love with was the lover of another man” Liam furrowed his eyebrows.

“So what are you trying to say?” Levi smiled then moved closer to him.

“Kiara will be used as bait but I don’t want her getting hurt. If you can make sure your people or her sister don’t touch her, I’ll help you bring down Zane and Daniel” Liam stared at him for a while then let out a scoff.

“No thank you, your father seems much more capable than you and less attached to the situation and I don’t know if I’m willing to trust Kiara’s little puppy” Levi stared at him for a while then shrugged.

“Suit yourself then but just so you know, you and my father have different goals while your goal and mine are the same. Choose your allies wisely or it might lead to your downfall” Levi muttered then turned around to glance at Kiara.

Just one look in his eyes and she knew he was already carrying out his plans.

After that, Levi walked out of the room with his brothers behind him, leaving Liam and Kiara alone.

Kiara noticed the complex look on his face and knew that Levi’s words had gotten to him.

“No matter what you do, you won’t be able to defeat Zane” She needed to act like she wasn’t on any of their sides to make what Levi said more believable.

“Excuse me?” Liam muttered as he turned to her.

“You, Levi and his father won’t succeed with your plans even if you all come together to defeat Zane, he’ll still win because he’s a true Alpha, something you will never become” Liam scoffed then walked up to her and grabbed her face.

“Really? Well tonight, your Zane and I will be having a little battle. Why don’t we use this to test out your beliefs, huh? I’ll try my best not to kill him right away” Kiara’s eyes widened as she saw the sinister smirk on Liam’s face. Why was Zane going to meet up with him?

“Liam, there’s still time for you to stop this. I’m sure if you apologize, they’ll…” noveldrama

“Apologize? To whom? Zane? You must be really dumb to think that I would want to apologize for what I am right now. You can’t begin to comprehend how long I’ve been thinking of this and you want me to apologize and throw it all away? Not a chance in hell. I’m going to have the last laugh and if you’re not dead by then, you’ll get to watch me kill your precious true alpha”….
