CHAPTER 58

Killian's pov
It had been days since I saw Edna, touched her and felt how much she felt for me and I missed her so much. I was running errands for one of the members of the elders council of the blood moon pack so I barely had the time to communicate with her these past few days. Once I got the chance and I wasn't occupied, I took the opportunity and quickly took my phone out of my pocket to send a message to her, I asked how she was and I told her how much I missed her and wished I could spend more time with her, I went on to assure her that with time I was going to be done with my mission at the blood moon pack and we would be together all the time then I ended the text by telling her I looked forward to the next time we'd meet.
I was really excited when Asher asked me to come to the Royal pack for reasons unknown to me days ago because I knew I would have the chance to see Edna and speak to her after such a long time since she left the pack after Asher saved her and Maya when they got kidnapped. I put on my best outfit and wore a perfume this time to smell great for her. Only to get there and get a surprise. I wasn't expecting it as much as she wasn't when we both found out they planned it all along to let us go on a date and spend the rest of the day the way we wanted it. It was perfect, the date, the way we talked and looked at each other… her eyes were killing me because I could see the lust in them. They were filled with want just as mine were too and I felt like I was in paradise when we got back to the pack and I took her, her moans and kisses and touches all turned me on and it felt like my skin was on fire; a good kind of fire.
I wanted to have a million more moment like that with her but the situation on ground gave no space for that so I planned I was going to make her feel like my queen once I got back to the Royal pack after completing my mission of being Asher's spy, I was going to make her feel extremely loved that she'd want me as much as I wanted her all the time. Even at this moment as I sent this message to her.
I could still remember how sad she was when I was leaving. It made it harder for me to go but I had to, her eyes were teary and her voice was shaky as she hugged me and kept on repeating how much she would miss me. I told her I would miss her a lot too and we shared a longing kiss before I left even though I didn't want to, but I had a responsibility to fulfill and her safety was involved too so even if it would take me years to fulfill my duty towards the Royal pack, I was going to do it to keep her safe.
I waited for a reply from her after sending the message but nothing came through so I called her assuming she didn't hear the phone beep but I knew she would definitely hear it ring if I called. It rang on and on but she didn't pick it up and I began to get worried.
I quickly completed my errand and left for somewhere private so I wouldn't incur anyone's attention while I tried to call Edna. I called again and again but it all kept going to her voicemail making me wonder why she was ignoring my calls. I tried to think of something I had probably done but nothing was coming up as a reason which made me more confused.
Was she safe or not? What if she had left the pack a long time ago and was in danger now? So many thoughts ran through my mind and I kept getting more panicked as the minutes passed and I didn't know what to think anymore. I went to my room and took off my shirt then sat on my bed, was she ignoring me? Was she tired of me already? I thought unintentionally again and sighed before I laid on my bed, an arm resting underneath my head while I stared at the ceiling and kept on thinking. I missed her that much to even let my head take complete control of my thoughts and make me overthink it all. More thoughts were still coming up and I couldn't keep up with them anymore, I was losing my mind.
I tried to sleep but all I thought of was Edna. My body was weak and needed rest but my head wouldn't let me have my nap because of Edna. I was scared that maybe she didn't want to have anything to do with me anymore, maybe I did something wrong during our date; that was definitely going to kill me if it ended up being true.
I tossed and turned repeatedly in my bed but still I couldn't sleep. With a groan I sat up in bed and tried calling Edna again but it still went to voicemail. I dropped the phone and ran my hand through my hair to calm my nerves and prevent myself from panicking. She was in good hands, Alpha Asher was a protective Alpha that would never let the people in his pack get into danger, especially if it was Edna… they were that close and had been together from the beginning, he was definitely going to ensure her safety all the time.
I sighed and bent my head. I needed to sleep to regain lost energy but I couldn't because not hearing a word from Edna had destroyed my chances at taking a nap.
A knock came on my door and I answered, the door opened slightly and a lady dressed in a slave's uniform looked inside. Her eyes met mine and she bowed her head "the younger master and mistress request for your presence" she said fearfully and I smiled at her "of course, I'll be there soon" I replied, she smiled back and left after closing my door.
I wondered why they wanted to see me but I couldn't refuse their order so I dressed in something else and left for the headquarters where they stayed.
It happened just like that, in a weird way, how Melissa just began to speak to me. I hated the look in her eyes whenever she spoke to me and I knew she wanted me, but I was only for Edna. I wasn't going to fall for any scheme of hers that she was probably planning to have me or make me fall for her. She disgusted me, with how pretty but wicked and soulless she was, it was definitely a turn off for any man like me and I knew I deserved better in a woman, a woman like Edna was the perfect description of what sort of woman I wanted so Melissa's plans or advances were eventually going to be futile.
I was only trying to save my head by speaking to her, because I knew she could make my life a living hell if I refused to be a friend of hers, but it was all going to end soon, once I left the blood moon pack after completing my purpose there. She probably wouldn't even be alive then.
I got to the headquarters in a jiffy and Jason and Melissa were already outside, dressed up like they were heading for a party… Then why was I called? Melissa sighted me and smiled immediately as she waved at me to come over. I sighed and rolled my eyes in my head before going towards them. I really despised being around these people, only that I didn't have a choice, they always got what they wanted… mostly forcefully at most times. "Hiiii Killian'' she said in a high pitched voice that made her sound like a hyena… I only smiled at her and she began to laugh out loud. I tried my hardest not to look irritated and just kept on a fake smile that I hoped looked real enough.
Melissa came closer to me and rested a hand on my shoulder while she eyed me with pure disgusting want in her eyes. She felt like a leech that I should slap off my shoulder… but I couldn't do that. At that moment, I was glad people couldn't read minds, or we'd all be enemies. "We're going to a party Killian, drive us there?" She asked like I could actually say no, she was going to have my head if I declined, so I just stretched out my hand for the key.
"Of course" I replied as she gave me the key and I went to the driver's seat to start the car.
Jason came forth too and after they had taken a few pictures, they got into the backseat of the car, ready for us to leave for the party.
I put the location in the GPS and drove off, as I followed its instructions until we got to the party and Melissa invited me to come in with them too. I still couldn't refuse her request so I silently obeyed and we went in. It was a club themed party, I noticed as I looked around for a place to sit. Melissa and Jason soon left me as they hugged and met a lot of people. I went to the bar counter and sat down then took my phone out of my pocket and checked to see if there was any message from Edna… still nothing. I groaned and dropped the phone on the counter
"Hard night?" The bar attendant, a lady asked with a smile and I nodded "kinda" I replied and she recommended a few drinks that could help me calm down and feel better but I didn't think taking any of them would be a good idea because I was driving Melissa and Jason home. I couldn't afford to make any mistakes because I didn't want to go through any shitty situations in their hands. They were very good at switching up on people. "Are they alcoholic?" I asked the bar attendant and she nodded.
I shook my head "I can't have them then, I'm driving but I'll take soda" I told her over the music blaring in the club and threatening to give me a headache. She smiled and in a few seconds, she placed a can of coke in my front with a straw already dipped in it "thanks" I told her and pulled out my wallet to pay but she held my hand to stop me
"It's on me" she said and winked… red flag!!! I had to leave there immediately before she would think I was Interested in her advances. I forced a smile at her and gently pulled her hand off mine
"I'll pay, I insist" I replied and dropped the bill with a tip then left. She could curse me if she wanted but I had zero interest in whatever she was offering.
Once I was done with my drink, I disposed of the can and left for the restroom. I finished my business, rinsed my hands and face and walked out only to bump into Melissa. She was standing there obviously waiting for me "where were you? You're missing out without us" she told me and took my hand then began to drag me off to a table where she, Jason and some people I'd never met sat. She introduced me and soon we were all chatting and taking shots.
Suddenly my phone beeped in my pocket, I took it out and scooted away from the table but not too far away and checked the phone. It was a message from Edna; she apologized and explained how busy she was throughout the day and she said we could talk now. I felt relieved on seeing her message and smiled…
