Cian and Kiara
“Kiara!”
It was Cian’s voice, how sweet of him to try to stop her, but she wasn’t in the mood for any of his
gestures, she needs to leave this place, and she needs to do it now. She didn’t even bother to turn
back, ignored him and continued walking her path. He ran fast until he reached where she was.
“What are you doing Kiara? It’s night, and it’s not safe for you alone out there with all those rogues
on the loose, alpha Lucas will kill me if anything happens to you!”
She turned.
“Thanks for worrying about me Cian, but I think I can handle myself out there. Nothing is worse
than staying here.”
“Are you kidding? So, you’re just going to let what just happened allow you to endanger your life?
All because you kissed someone you shouldn’t have?”
“You don’t know how it feels Cian, you don’t know how it feels to live in sorrow and regret every
day for something that’s not even your fault, if you were me, you’d wish you were dead!” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“Maybe I don’t know what it’s like, but still, I don’t think anything is worth your life, please come
back, we’ll leave first thing in the morning, Okay?”
“I’m not going back there Cian, and you can’t make me!” She spat and continued walking.
Cian ran in front of her, still trying to persuade.
“Please Kiara, don’t do this…”
“Please Cian don’t try to stop me, I am leaving this place tonight and there’s nothing you can do to
try and stop me!!!”
He realized he wasn’t getting anywhere with her with this argument, so he thought of something,
he decided to suggest a way they would both get what they want.
“Ok, how about this; since you want to leave this place now by all means and I can’t leave you to
go all by yourself, why don’t I drive you back home in one of the trucks tonight? It’ll be much faster and
safer for you,” besides the fact that his heart would be safe from alpha Lucas’s claws.
The anger cleared away from her face at his words, now he was beginning to make some sense.
He was tired, they both were, but he still offered to help her.
“You’d do that, to protect me?”
“Yes.”
“Ok, thank you. Let’s go now.”
**********
They were back on the way home, it was a tiresome distance, but since it was night, the paths
were cleared so it was a smooth drive, the insides of the truck filled with the swirling night breeze. Cian
and Kiara never exchanged words as he drove, and he hadn’t driven a few miles away from their
departure before Kiara suddenly burst into tears. She was crying uncontrollably, and Cian didn’t know
what to do to comfort her, he couldn’t take his hands off the wheel, neither could he stop driving.
Kiara couldn’t take it anymore.
“Stop the truck!” She demanded, amidst racking sobs.
“But its…”
“I SAID STOP THIS DAMN TRUCK RIGHT NOW, BETA CIAN!!!!”
Her angry words and the tone she used made him shakily bring the vehicle to a halt, in the middle
of nowhere. As soon as he stopped the car, she came down, slamming the door and began walking
towards no direction in particular. He came down from the truck too.
“Where are you going?” He asked her.
“I don’t know, maybe to find a cliff so I can jump off it,” she said, wiping her tears.
He ran towards her and grabbed her hand, continuing with the persuasions.
“Please Kiara, just get back in the truck, don’t make this any more difficult for both of us; it’s the
middle of the night, we are both tired and you shouldn’t be out here.”
“NO!!! I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE ME ALONE!” Kiara yelled at him stubbornly.
That’s it, no more Mr. Nice guy. He’s been more than patient with her, Cian could be a very nice
humble beta, but when you push your limits with him, you get to see his ugly side. He knew how to
handle women like this; he grabbed, carried her and hoisted her up on his shoulder, walking back to the
truck, she struggled, pounding his back with her fists with as much force as he could but it only felt like
she was giving him a soft massage.
Upon reaching the truck, he opened the passenger’s seat, dropping her to sit on it, he then
strapped the seatbelt tight on her and locked the truck door, smashing the door handle with his fist so
she wouldn’t be able to open, before taking his place on the driver’s seat.
“How dare you do that to me Cian?” She grumbled as soon as he got in beside her.
“I’m sorry, I wish the forbidden lake was still in existence so you’d have an easier option to kill
yourself when we return to the packhouse, but you can’t die now, not with me, at least wait till we get
back home before you kill yourself, so that alpha Lucas won’t blame me or say I was with you when
you committed suicide. Got that?”
Kiara was astounded, it was the nerve and audacity of Cian for her. How dare he? How dare he do
this to her? She grudgingly removed the seatbelt and tried to open the truck door but Cian had already
smashed the lock, trapping the door. Thus, she could only get out of the truck from the driver’s side,
and there was no way in hell Cian would let her.
He started the truck again and drove off with Kiara right beside him, fuming with
anger.
