“You shouldn’t be here, you're the Alpha King and Liam's uncle.” I managed to say, trying to resist his touch. He chuckled deeply, “You forgot one more thing” he said simply, brushing his thumb over my lower lips. “What is that?” I whispered almost inaudibly. “I'm also your mate.” He murmured, leaning towards me. “What do you want from me?” I asked, feeling so confused. “Isn't it obvious?” He asked with a smirk, “I want you.” . . Aria is heartbroken, when her fated mate, the Alpha's son, betrays and brutally rejects her. Seeking for temporary comfort, she finds herself in the arms of a mysterious stranger who offers her the comfort she desperately craves that night, under the influence of a sexual stimulant and she flees the next morning. To her shock, she discovers her passionate night was spent with her ex-mate's uncle, the Alpha King, Alpha Knox Blackwood, who is also her second chance mate. Knox however is not willing to let her go. He has had a taste, and wants her for himself. Knox offers her a second chance — an opportunity to leave her past as an omega behind, and she quickly accepts. However, there are so many people not happy about this, and Knox has a dark secret. What happens when their dark pasts rise up to haunt them?
view moreAria’s POVI walked back to my room with a skip in my step, and a grin on my face. My meeting with Fenrir had been a very huge success, and even Knox couldn’t deny it.Knox walked beside me, shaking his head at the ridiculous smile on my face. “Come on, stop being so overexcited. It’s not a very big deal.”I snorted. “Oh, but it is. Because it means that in a few days, you’ll mark me. So, excuse me if I’m overexcited, Knox.” I retorted, my grin widening.Knox sighed, “You just saw the tame side of Fenrir. Trust me, when you see his wild side, you’ll understand what I’m trying to say.”I wrapped my arm around his. “You are not going to spoil my very happy mood, Knox.” I replied, leaning my head on his shoulder, and he chuckled in response.I thought nothing could ruin my mood.Oh, how wrong I was.The sound of sobbing reached my ears, and I could feel Knox tensing from beside me. “Astrid,” he muttered under his breath, his voice sounding concerned.Before I knew what was happening, he
Aria’s POVAs I got to the secret room inside Knox’s room, I frowned. Knox wasn’t here yet, even though I was ten minutes late. He had better not cancel today’s meeting like he did yesterday. I thought to myself with a scowl.I folded my arms as I tapped my foot impatiently, staring at the door, waiting for Knox to walk through it. However, after I waited for an extra ten minutes, I lost patience. I released a groan of annoyance. Knox must be trying to avoid this meeting. I wasn’t going to accept that.I stormed to the door, ready to search for Knox, to drag him over here for the meeting. However, the door opened as I reached it, and Knox walked in with a sheepish smile on his face.“Hey, I’m very sorry that I’m late.” Knox apologized, leaning forward to place a kiss on my lips, but I turned my head, and he kissed my cheeks instead.Knox cringed slightly, “I’m sorry, my little angel. I know I kept you waiting, but it wasn’t my fault. I was trying to console Astrid and–”“I’m sorry, wh
Aria’s POVThe man was barely conscious, and from what I could see. He was barely holding on.Cole’s words echoed in my head.“Think about how many people you could help.”I ran a hand through my hair as my mind raced with several thoughts.Could I really do this?I shook my head, and forced myself to continue walking.No, I was just getting ahead of myself. I couldn’t go around healing people.‘These are not just people,’ Jade murmured in my head. ‘Some are fathers, mothers, children, and most importantly, they are your pack members.’I paused with a frown on my face, genuinely surprised. “Woah, when did you suddenly grow a conscience, Jade?” I asked, glancing around to make sure no one saw me talking to myself.Jade chuckled sarcastically, ‘Oh please, I’m just trying to convince you to think about healing people.’ She admitted.I furrowed my eyebrows in curiosity. “Why?”‘Why else? Because I want to get better at it.’ Jade replied.I released a small chuckle. “I should have known th
Aria’s POVI closed the door, my mind racing with several thoughts as I made my way to the chair beside his bed.“So, what is it, buddy?” I asked, placing my hand gently on his.Cole gave me a look, with a serious expression on his face. “I know what you did,” he said quietly.His words were unexpected, and my heart pounded as worry settled within me. What was he talking about?I furrowed my brows. “Cole? What are you talking about?” I asked. I placed the back of my hand on his forehead to check his temperature. “Are you sure you’re okay?”Cole gently removed my hand with a sigh that sounded far too mature for his age. “Yes, Luna. I’m perfectly fine, thanks to you.” He lifted his eyebrow with a pointed look in his eyes.‘Busted,’ Jade whispered in my head.My eyes widened slightly as realization dawned on me. He was talking about the healing—what Jade had done through me. But I wasn’t about to admit it that easily.“Thanks to me?” I repeated, feigning confusion. “Cole, what are you tr
Aria’s POV “You’re pregnant.” The moment the words left Hunter’s mouth, the training field felt deathly silent. Even the twins, who had been laughing moments ago, stiffened. I gulped. “I thought Knox told you.” Hunter’s nostrils flared again, and he clenched his fist. “No, he didn’t.” His voice was calm, but there was a sharp edge in his tone that made me know that he was anything but calm. My mind flashed back to my discussion with Knox about telling Hunter my pregnancy. I had made him trust me that I was going to tell Hunter myself, but honestly, I hadn’t wanted to tell Hunter just yet. I didn’t want him to go too easy on me, but it had later skipped my mind later on to tell him. Zane and Zander exchanged nervous glances before they stepped back with panic in their eyes, like people that had unknowingly committed a crime. “We didn’t know, Luna—” Hunter shot them a glare, and they went silent instantly. He turned to me with an accusing glare. “And you still trained this way?”
Aria’s POVI walked to the training area with my heart pounding in anticipation. Hunter had told me yesterday that today’s session was going to be different. I was eager to see what was going to be different.Immediately I walked in, I was surprised to see two faces that I vaguely remembered. They were the muscular identical twins that had opened the large doors the day that Knox had announced me as the Luna Queen. I racked my brain, trying to remember their names. I knew they started with ‘X’, or was it ‘Z’.“Good morning, Your Majesty,” they both greeted in unison.“Good morning, Z... Zane, and Z... Zander? Right?” I asked, tilting my head, hoping I had gotten it right.Identical grins appeared across their faces, and they nodded eagerly. They looked pleased that I had remembered their names. “Yes, Luna.”“It’s so good to see you,” I said, with a warm smile on my face, as I shook their hands.I turned to Hunter, who stood there with his signature blank look on his face as he waited
Aria’s POV“Good morning, Alpha Blackwood, Luna Blackwood”“Good morning, Your Majesties.”“Good morning, Alpha, Luna.”The whole clinic was surprised to see Knox there. From their reactions, it was clear that Knox hadn’t been here in a very long time.The healers and patients in the clinic watched with wide eyes as Knox walked beside me. Some had fear in their eyes, some had awe in their eyes, while the rest were just curious.Knox walked calmly beside me like he didn’t notice any of this, even though I knew he did.“You look very good in those jeans,” I muttered softly, giving him a sideways glance.“Really?” he asked with amusement in his voice.I nodded. “Yes. Why haven’t I ever seen you in jeans before?” I asked, leading him through the hallway.He shrugged. “I prefer suits, they make people look sophisticated.”I glanced at him again. “You don’t need a suit to make you look sophisticated, Knox. You could be naked and still look sophisticated,” I replied.Knox paused, and he grab
Aria's POVBefore I could even blink, Hunter threw a punch straight at my face. I barely dodged, stumbling back a few steps, almost losing my balance.“Too slow,” Hunter said, folding his arms. “Speed over strength, remember? You cannot win by overpowering anyone. Not with your build. You need to be faster, smarter—hit when they’re vulnerable and avoid attacks that’ll take you out in one shot.”I nodded, breathing heavily and sweating profusely. “Got it.”Hunter ran a hand through his hair. He wasn't even breathing heavily, or sweating. It wasn't fair. We had been training for hours, yet I was the only one looking like a mess.“We're done for today.” He said, glancing up at the sky that was getting brighter.I released a deep breath of relief, and relaxed my tense muscles.“Oh, thank the moon goddess.” I breathed, collapsing to my knees.Hunter stared down at me with an unimpressed look on his face.“Stop being dramatic.” He said flatly, handing me a water bottle.I took it from his h
Aria's POVSurprise surged through me at his words. “What?” I gaped stupidly.An amused look crossed his face, but it disappeared so fast that I thought that I had imagined it.“I am sorry for my sister’s behaviour,” he repeated, then he sighed. “Please don’t tell the alpha about it.” He said.I was getting so surprised and confused that I couldn’t hold in my surprise. “What is causing the sudden change of mind? Did you suddenly grow a conscience, and decide that I didn’t deserve all the unnecessary hate? Why are you suddenly so scared that I would tell the Alpha?” I spat as annoyance flickered through me.What was his end game? Why was he acting this way?Hunter released a sigh, and he placed his hands in the pockets of his sweatpants.“The Alpha has come such a long way to finally becoming the Alpha King. It wasn’t an easy task, and there are so many people that will love to see him go down. But that day hasn’t come, and I doubt it will ever come.” He started.“When I found out that
Aria's POVLiam clinked his glass with a spoon and a handsome smile on his face “Can I have everyone's attention please?”.Everyone paused and gave him their full attention, including me. I was supposed to be serving drinks at the party, but I couldn't resist watching HIM.Liam Reed, the son of the Alpha of the Grey Moon pack, and my mate.I knew I had a stupid smile on my face, but I couldn't help it.Many times, I wondered how I got so lucky, how an omega like me got blessed with an alpha-to-be for a mate, an alpha that loved me so much.“Aria…” my friend, Claire whispered harshly, trying to grab my attention.I blinked my eyes as I came out from my daydreaming. I was still holding a tray of drinks in my hands.“You're supposed to be serving drinks, not drooling over Liam Reed” she teased.I rolled my eyes jokingly, “I'm not drooling,” I replied, but I got distracted again when Liam started speaking.“Today is a very special day for me and for this pack.” Liam stated, and my heart s...
