Claimed By The Lycan King (Kaia) novel Chapter 53

Chapter 53

Kaia's POV

Lylah was giving the silent treatment I deserved. After leaving the hospital, I made sure my block was up and also hid my smell so that it wouldn't be possible for anyone to trace.

I had no idea where I was going but I knew I had to avoid the patrol warriors and they were a lot, especially with their new routine. And to keep myself going despite how many times my body wanted to turn around and run into his arms was that he was better off without me by his side.

Laura was right, unlike her who had an advantage and could provide help when needed, I didn't have anything. Since I left my former pack, I'm certain no one looked for me. They probably threw a party when they realized I was gone.

“Fuck!" I cried out, when I felt something pierce my leg.

It was dark and I could barely see anything. My only source of light was the moon, but because of my grudge against her, it wasn't a full moon.

And since Lylah refused to surface, using my wolf's vision wasn't an option when she was nowhere to be found.

I didn't know how I had walked, but I decided to call it a night.

“Come on, Lylah. I'm sorry." I apologized, but there was nothing.

I found a big tree which was going to serve as my bed for the night and hopefully it was well covered. I rested my back against the tree, using the bag I had with me as a pillow, I tried to make myself as comfortable as the tree would allow.

My stomach was rumbling and in all my packing, I didn't bring along anything edible, not even a bottle of water. Dylan was right, my survival skill was zero.

A small smile crossed my face when I thought about it. But I was in a hurry to leave so those were the last things I thought about.

Everywhere was quiet except for the rustling of leaves and sounds made by other animals. I knew I was still inside the pack, so my worry about rogues reduced. But it didn't make me any less afraid of being alone.

It reminded me of how alone I used to be only that I chose this one myself.

“Was Kieran looking for me? Or was he already going ahead to make Laura his Luna?" I wondered.

Pushing the thought aside because the more I thought about it, the more heartbroken it made me.

“Lylah!" I tried again and this time she responded but her voice came back weakly.

“Kaia…”

I frowned, “what's wrong?"

She shook her head, “I don't know, but something is wrong.” She replied.

I sat upright, at a loss of what to do. I've never regretted a decision so fast. I should've listened to her when she asked me to think it through. Now that something is wrong, there was no one to ask for help.

“I'm sorry, this is my fault, I should've listened to you." I cried. “What do we do?" I asked her.

“I just need to rest. It'll probably be better in the morning.”

I nodded, “nothing must happen to her.” I thought, even if I have to return to Kieran, he'd know what to do. A question I was avoiding was if he'd still want me after this.
