1. Heaven & Hell

KIAN

The following morning, I left Morgana with my journals. Not something I wanted to do, but… she’s mine and if she wants to know my past, she has the fucking right to. I just didn’t want to be around before she discovered all my fucking secrets, especially my doubts and my doodles.

I was trying to remember everything I’d written, when I froze. Wait… I’m sure there were some passages about Sage. Fuck! Before I could even get up from my office chair, there was a knock on the door and Kai stepped inside.

“You called for me, Kian?” He asked.

I ran my hand down my face, massaging my jaw. The chances she’d read those chapters were minimal… right? There were several journals, I better make this fucking quick.

“I did, take a seat.” I said, motioning with a jerk of my head towards the seats opposite. “I know things have changed between us with time… Our priorities and decisions shaped our future and it, in turn, made us take different paths… but you are a good person Kai. Let’s work on our bonds before it’s too late.”

Kai nodded.

“Thank you, Kian… I’m just grateful to get to be around. What you did for Cain’s family speaks highly of the king you are, one that our parents would have been so proud of.” He said with a smile.

“Tell me, Kai, what should a good king be? Feared, loved, just or respected?”

He seemed uncertain about my question before he became thoughtful.

“A good king is loved and respected, a fair king is just and feared, but the best of kings is the one who puts his people before everything, the one willing to let go of everything as long as it means their safety. You should go to the capital city, Kian. People are singing praises of yours and Lady Morgana’s deeds, your venture to Elandorr and The Sanguine Empire. You are not a good king, neither are you a fair king, but you are the greatest king we‘ve ever had, and I’m proud of you.” He said, a smile on his face.

Too innocent for this life, but his words still moved something inside.

“Have you heard of that saying, behind every successful man is a great woman?”

“Yeah, like you and your Luna.” Kai said.

I shook my head, thinking of my little she-devil’s smile.

‘She’s fucking gorgeous.’ Thanatos added.

I agree.

“No, not like Morgana and I, because she isn’t behind me. She is always right beside me, we are one and fucking equal.” I said with pride.

Kai grinned,

“Damn, the sexist, arrogant Kian treating a woman as an equal, I’m surprised but proud.” He said before realising what he had just said, “Sorry, that was uncalled for-”

“It’s fine. In fact, you’re not wrong. She changed me. We were like heaven and hell, clashing over everything. I hated her for who she was, not knowing it was what she was that I needed.” I said quietly, “Anyway, enough about me. The reason I called you here is because I’ve decided to make you my Beta.”

His eyes flew open, and he looked at me in complete shock.

“Me as Beta? But…”

“I trust you Kai, I believe you can be the Beta my pack needs, this kingdom needs. Let’s forget the past and start afresh.” I said quietly.

He looked at me, hesitating for a moment before determination settled into his eyes and he nodded.

“I won’t let you down.”

“You won’t, or I’ll fucking have your head.” I said smirking, as I stood up.

He grinned. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

“We’ll have a small initiation soon.” I said, “Now I need to go do something.”

He nodded and I left my office, wondering how much Morgana had read…

‘Serves you fucking right if she gets angry at you, I just hope she doesn’t get angry at me too for your deed! Thanatos growled. ‘But I can take over if she’s angry and you can be on time out. Mate would like that.’
