AuroraWhat? He knew about that too?My head snapped at the speed of light once I processed what he just said. I was just as shocked as everyone except that mine was for a different reason. Ethan nodded at me reassuringly before returning his gaze to the crowd, “Yes, you heard me right. Aurora found out the mysterious powers of Arne's blood and she used it to cure every sick person in the pack. I don't need to explain to you how sacred this information is, this only goes to prove that Arne is the true heir of the pack and without him, the pack would not be able to survive it. The plague was a punishment from the moon goddess because our pack had abandoned our Luna and heir. The solution was bringing them back and good thing we did. Asides that, an heir with such blood shows that he is no ordinary alpha, who knows what else he could do? With him our pack will definitely grow into greater heights.” His voice was neither firm nor soft, but it seemed to resonate through the hearts of ev

EthanThere was excitement in the air and I knew why, I was getting discharged from the hospital today.As I stepped out with Sam by my side, I arrived at the Palace to see the crowd of people gathered, cheerful and happy that their king was back. I wasn't surprised, I had called for the gathering because it was time for me to tell them about Aurora as Luna.I wanted to address it immediately, no time wasted and no hesitation. Aurora would be completely mine and so I was impatient.“Long live the alpha” Everyone chanted happily as I made my way to sit on the throne that faced everyone. My family sat on lower chairs beside me with Sam standing at my other side.I raised my hand and there was immediate silence before I started saying “Greetings everyone. Thank you for your love and well wishes towards me while I was in the hospital. These past one year has been a trying time for everyone of us and I am very glad that we were able to scale through it. After everything, we came out stron

Aurora“Ethan, you are awake, thank the goddess.” I came to his side in a flash, grabbing his hands and rubbing them gently against my cheek. My eyes were already clouded with tears of joy, I felt so relieved to see him. “Aurora, I… you” he tried to speak with his hoarse voice.“Shh… Don’t say anything, let me check your vitals” I said as I began the check up. He fell quiet, his eyes were on me, following my every movement. I pushed aside the fluttering feeling in my heart from his gaze and finished the check up.Thankfully, everything was fine and his injury was healing properly.“I’m sorry, Aurora” Ethan spoke up as soon as I helped him go sit up on the bed.I rolled my eyes at him and replied, “How many times are you going to say sorry? Come on now, I have forgiven you” it was the truth, the past few days had been to reflect on everything and I have forgiven Ethan in my heart, I had let go of the past and the only thing I was concerned about now was the future. What happens now?

AuroraIt wasn't a dream. When I returned to the light, I realized I was in a hospital. I was admitted after I fell unconscious.The first person that came to mind was Ethan and I rushed out of my ward to go see him. When I arrived at the ICU where he was supposed to be in, I met his family, Sam and even Arne at the waiting area.“Mum, you are awake” Arne was the first to see and he immediately came to hug me. I hugged him back passionately, “I’m sorry, Arne, for lying to you. I hope you can forgive mummy” I said, holding back unshed tears.“It’s okay, mum. I forgive you. But I don't want to leave…” he said“We won't leave okay? Don't worry” I assured him before hugging him again.The others were looking at me, probably wondering what we were talking about but I ignored their questioning gaze and walked forward holding Arne's hand. They would soon know the truth and I wanted to wait to do it after Ethan recovered.“What’s going on in there? How long has the surgery been going on?” I

AURORA“Ethan!” I screamed out in shock as Isadora reached him and plunged the knife into his chest. Blood spilled out almost immediately and I quickly ran to his aid, holding him so he doesn't slump to the ground heavily.“Ethan, stay with me okay? You will be fine just stay with me” Tears voluntarily poured out of my eyes as I spoke. Ethan couldn't speak, he just continued to gasp for air.“Arne, get help quickly, run!” I instructed Arne whose face was already wet with tears from the onset. The child ran out of the room immediately while Isadora burst out laughing like a maniac.“It’s no use little sister, you can't save him, he will die for sure” she said amidst her laughter.I was livid, I raised my tear stained face to look at her before saying, “I am not your sister. I am no sister to a monster and killer” With Ethan jerking on my lap, I immediately returned my attention to him. I tried to apply pressure on the wound but to properly do that I had to take out the knife, it was g

AuroraEthan knocked Isadora off me with one hit and she fell to the ground, slumping unconscious from impact. I glanced at my unconscious sister and then back at the raging Ethan, my heart was beating wildly in my chest. He turned to look at me and his gaze softened almost immediately. I couldn't handle the way he was looking at me so I looked away and got up from the ground.“Aurora, are you okay? I hope Isadora did not hurt you” Ethan said as he came closer and searched my body worriedly.“No, I'm fine” I answered plainly before walking away to where Arne was, I engulfed him in a hug and kissed his forehead. These past days has been rough on him, he didn't deserve it one bit. If I continue to stay here, I fear that he would never be safe and I couldn't afford that. So I did what I felt was right… leave.I placed another long kiss on Arne's forehead before walking to the wardrobe, brought out our empty boxes then I began packing our clothes in it as fast as I could. “What are you

Eve “Hello, were you able to see it?” I asked the person on the other end of the phone.“Yes, but only half of it. It says Transfer of temporary ownership… something along those lines” she said.“Alright. Thank you, Jasmine, you did well” I replied and hung up the phone. I found it cute how Sinclair thought he could sneak into the office and I wouldn't know about it. I had eyes everywhere, so immediately he stepped out of the house, I was already tracking his movement.Jasmine had called me to inform me that he had just entered his office, and I instructed her to devise whatever means possible to see what he had come to take. She impressed me by getting the job done a few minutes later, and I just found out Sinclair went to take the transfer papers that were probably signed between him and my father. It was exactly what I wanted to see but how do I take it from him?I guessed my questioning yesterday had made him apprehensive and paranoid, so much so that he had to go retrieve those

SinclairI stepped out of the car and winced from the bright sunlight, almost blinding my eyes. The nagging headache had started again this morning; perhaps it was time I took aspirin for it. I looked at the precious company that I have been managing for more than five years. It has always been my number one priority but now I was starting to think that I made a mistake.I shook my head to clear my thoughts. Right now, I need to go get those papers in my office before Eve finds them. I couldn't risk the secret I was hiding for years from leaking out. I was ready to take it to the grave… I made a promise.I don't know how Eve heard about it, but her questions were a wake-up call, and with her inquisitive mind, it would only be a matter of time for her to find out everything. I couldn't sit around and let that happen. I walked into the building, avoiding conversations from the employees and heading straight to my office. I know Eve wasn’t in, I had left her at home to tend to my mothe

Eve “Oh, that's not yours, that's meant for Sinclair” I added in a considerably lower voice. I walked to Bill despite the suspicious stares I got and continued, “I added some soda water to it because Sinclair loves to drink red wine that way,” I lied, and carefully took the glass from him and handed him another one. Maybe I shouldn't have laced it when everyone was having a drink too, I thought, and took a mental note. I couldn't have this happen again. What if Bill and, worse still, Wilfred take it? No no no… I need to be more careful. I didn't want anybody to die on my hands, even if that person was Sinclair. I just needed him to be unable to fight back for the company for a short time while I transfer everything to my name.“Oh, yeah… that is true. Thank you for remembering, sweetheart” Sinclair replied after a few painful seconds. His reply seemed to whisk all their suspicions away and I subtly breathed out in relief. They all went back to their movie as if nothing had happened;

Eve I stepped into the office with Mr. Khalif, Blackwood, and Richard, and we all took our seats. I had already informed my secretary not to allow any visitors because I didn't want to be disturbed. I can't have anyone eavesdropping on our conversation.“So, the plan has been coming along smoothly yes?” I asked once we all settled in.“Yes it seems so, but we have to ask how your part in the plan is coming along, have you been able to gain Sinclair's trust?” Khalif asked.I smiled, “Well as you can see, I am here because Sinclair told me to temporarily take care of the company while he stays by his sick mother's side. If that doesn't scream trust, then I don't know what is,” I said proudly. “You are right. And that also means that it is time” Brando said with a knowing look. I nodded in response with a knowing look as well, I felt a creeping anxiety as I thought of what was to come.Brando shared a look with Khalif before bringing out a small-looking box from his suitcase. He placed

Eve A week passed by quickly and the doctor finally approved for Wilfred to be discharged to receive medical care at home.Sinclair was very thorough with her medical care; he hired a nurse to take care of her 24/7, and he purchased all the necessary medical equipment that she might need in a crisis, should she have one at home.“My son is so extra, isn't he? I mean, look at all that, his stuff, the room looks like a freaking hospital ICU.” Wilfred grumbled under her breath with a frown, but I could still hear her.I was escorting her to her room; which was moved downstairs for easy access, for some rest.I chuckled softly and replied as I observed the room setup, “He is just very worried about you…”“I know” she murmured without missing a beat.After getting her tucked in for a nap, I returned to my room to see Sinclair lying down to rest his head.“Is she asleep now?” he asked as soon as I stepped in but his eyes were closed.“Yes, she is. It didn't take long, as soon as she hit th

Eve“Why did you want to see me? Is there a problem?” Mrs Duncan asked once we got settled in my office.“It’s not a problem per se, I just wanted to ask some questions that had to do with when my father was alive and worked here many years ago. I understand that you are one of the oldest employees who worked with him, so you must have some information that can be useful to me,” I said in a low but audible voice. For some reason, I didn't want someone to hear our conversation.Mrs Duncan moved restlessly in her seat, and it made me squint my eyes in suspicion. Why was she acting like she knew something? I hadn't even asked her my question. And it happened in a split second so it was almost like I imagined it.“Do you have something to tell me, Mrs Duncan?” I asked, my eyes observing her every move.“I don't know what you are talking about, but ask your questions first, and I'll see if I can give you an answer to them,” she replied without missing a beat.Maybe I was mistaken… I said t
