Fated To Three Betrayed By All Until She Rose (Leilani) by Ahvahh novel Chapter 360

Chapter 360: No way in hell.

Leilani.

It was several hours since I left the abandoned house where I had met with Zevran and arrived back at my hotel room, but for some reason, I remained restless for the rest of the night.

I couldn’t sleep... I couldn’t close my eyes without seeing Agnes’ face floating just behind my closed eyelids like a big fat banner.

The thoughts of her haunted me, but do you know what haunted me the most?

The fact that I never gave her all that she deserved.

The fact that she put herself in harm’s way over and over again just to make things easier for me.

I could remember when she’d helped me with the case with my parents retrieving old footage, and then with Chalice’s and Louis’ case. Many times, she’d been selfless and protected me... yet, she’d died in my stead.

It should have been the other way round.

While on one hand, I was grieving the loss of a friend, on the other hand, my stupid wolf was busy beating herself up over Zevran’s kiss.

She replayed every second of the kiss like it was a movie scene she wanted to keep tattooed into her memory... but at the moment, the only thing I could think about were the words he’d said to me before the kiss.

"What if I am not there? What if my brothers are not there and there is no Alpha Frostclaw as well? Would you just let your enemies beat your ass? Would you let them hurt you despite everything they’ve done so far? Everyone says that you are the legendary all powerful hybrid, yet I do not see it. All I see is a young woman who is hurt by everything she’s been put through. All I see is a girl who has so much potential. But do you know what she would do rather than make use of those said potential?"

"...she would rather whine and cry, and would let everyone else do the job... the job that only she could ever do so perfectly."

Those words however, were the only things I wanted to keep tattooed to the back of my skull. They were the only thing my mind kept on loop, replaying over and over again until I began to feel on top of the world.

The world grew silent, reducing into nothing but white noise at the back of my head. Lines blurred into one another until in place of the kiss, all I could think of were his words... the firmness in his eyes when he said them... the admiration. The sureness.

I balled my hands into fists as I rose slowly to my feet and walked over to the only window my hotel room possessed.

"I need to stop being a whining weakling," I hissed. "I need to do better. I need to avenge Agnes’ death."

As the words slipped out of my mouth, taking form, I felt a sudden strange energy rush through every vein in my body. It zapped from the roots of my hair to the sole of my feet, causing all the hairs on my body to stand on end.

I let out a gasp and fell to my knees when it became too much to handle, but rather than passing out like I always would when things like this happened, I didn’t. Instead I felt stronger. Better. Sharper.

I crawled to my feet and stumbled towards the mirror, and when I looked in, my breath caught in my chest.

Why?

Because standing in front of me wasn’t me. It was a girl who looked exactly like me, alright, but she was more badass. More beautiful even. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

The roots of her hair were not like mine and had darkened, and a strange bright light ran through each strand of her hair like a gazillion fairy lights.

I touched my hair tentatively, feeling the tips of my finders thrum with power, then I whispered;

"What the fuck?"

My voice echoed back at me.
