The Alpha's Curse The Enemy Within

"It's good to be back. I will take my leave now." His eyes moved from Killian to mine, his smile

deepening amusingly. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Sheila. I will most definitely see you around." He

said before walking away.

"Who is he?" I turned to Killian.

His thick, perfect brows knitted together. "He just told you, didn't he?"

I could see the sarcasm in there, as well as the jealousy laced in his tone. With each passing day, I

could feel Killian's growing possessiveness of me. He always gets angry and jealous, especially

whenever I am with the pack’s male warriors.

Frankly, I could understand him. I also feel that way, so possessive of him that I am struggling so hard

not to show it. I don't think I can handle him being with someone else like before when he was with

Thea. Even though I hated the fact that Thea was still here in the pack, there was nothing I could do

about it. And Killian hasn't given me a reason to worry. In fact, he has stayed far away from her. I don't

know what I would do if he ever betrayed me again with someone else.

'Well, we will just have to kill him,' Adie grunted, making me chuckle internally. 'I really mean it'

"Thanks to you, I couldn't ask more questions." I shook out of my thoughts, ignoring the silly words of

my wolf.

"He is a witch of the coven. He went away some time back. But I guess he's back." Killian said, pulling

me into his arms. He kissed my lips.

"We are having a meeting in an hour along with the witches. I want you to be there." He kissed me

again.

"As you wish, Alpha." I kissed him back. We made our way inside, and I rushed to my chamber for a

quick shower. I chose a green velvet dress from the rack and hitched it up, adjusting the off-the-

shoulder sleeve that stopped at my elbows. I put on my ankle boots and brushed my hair neatly, letting

my brown hair fall down my shoulders.

I met up with Ria, Allen, and Morgan in the hallways. They were heading outside the castle. Ria and

Allen had patrolling to do this evening. I walked with them as we reached the outside of the castle. I

was about to say something when I felt an excruciating pain in my chest. I almost collapsed on the

ground clutching my chest, but Morgan's firm hands snaked around me and caught me. Ria and Allen

also rushed to my side.

"Luna!" Ria was almost yelling.

I groaned more at the pain choking my chest, burning me. "What the hell is happening to me?" I asked,

almost in tears.

I kept writhing in agony. Morgan's hold on me became cold. He bore down on me deeply.

I tightened my grip on him.

"Sheila, have you and my brother been together?" I heard his voice over me.

I was in so much pain that I couldn't speak. I only nodded my head.

Morgan looked at me in horror, while Ria and Allen studied me.

"What are you guys staring at? I am in pain." My words sounded in a whisper.

Slowly, the pain disappeared. I was panting so hard. Morgan helped me stand up.

I could no longer feel the pain again. "What happened?" I asked. Even though Adie felt it, I had never

experienced such kind of pain before.

No one spoke. Morgan looked furious, on the verge of exploding, while Ria and Allen just stared at me

nervously.

"What's wrong?" I asked Allen when everyone refused to say something.

Morgan stiffened, and a low growl escaped his throat.

I turned to him. His expression looked like he had realized something, and his rage intensified as his

eyes turned bright yellow.

"Killian. It's Killian. That stupid brother of mine is currently cheating on you, Sheila." Morgan roared.

I was caught by surprise by what Morgan said. I looked at Ria and Allen.

"The pain you feel is the pain of betrayal. It is felt when your mate is cheating on you. I am sorry

Sheila," Ria said, looking at his feet.

Slowly, everything they said sank in. Killian was cheating on me. Pain enveloped my heart. Somehow, I

felt anguish. I know that for someone whose mate had a lover, I should have been used to his betrayal

by now, but somehow, I felt things were different between us. Little by little, the pain morphed into rage.

I felt absolute anger spreading through my body. It felt like my blood was beginning to boil at an

extreme rate.

Adie was already enraged. She was growling furiously in my head and wanted to murder someone.

I couldn't even make out my emotions; I didn't know when I became this violent. I took some steps

backwards. Ria wanted to follow me, but I insisted I be left alone. I stormed into the woods. I needed to

release this intense rage I felt or else I was really going to murder someone.

Killian's point of view

I just took my bath. My hair and body were still wet. I tied a towel around my waist, roving to the

clothing rack to pick out some clothes.

I was so lost in thoughts that I didn't notice someone coming into my chamber. I snapped back to reality

when a hand brushed through my arms. I looked up to see that it was Thea.

"Thea, why are you here?" I asked her.

She smiled temptingly. I noticed that she was in her silk robe. And I think she was not wearing anything

underneath.

"Killian baby. I want you. " She purred, moving closer to me.

I moved around the room, brushing the back of my neck with my palm.

"Thea, please. Not now. We have a meeting with the witches soon. " I told her

She pouted. "Come on, Killian. I know you want me too. That's why I am here for you," she said.

Her brown eyes gleamed darkly with lust. She motioned to me, and with a finger, pushed me onto the

bed. The towel around my waist fell to the cold floor.

Slowly, her fingers untied her robe and it fell to the floor. I was right. She was naked. She stood in front

of me, her naked skin and full breasts exposed to me.

The smile on her lips deepened. " I am going to make you feel good. I promise." She cooed.
