Aria’s POV

Jade sat on the white floor with a sigh. “Okay, where do I begin?” she murmured to herself.

“From the beginning,” I replied, folding my arms.

She scratched her head. “Well, which beginning? Mine? Or–”

I interrupted her impatiently. “From the beginning of everything, Jade. Stop stalling, and start speaking.”

Jade rolled her eyes. “Okay, fine.

She looked away for a moment before she finally met my gaze. “I’ve been here, in your subconscious, for a long time, Aria. Just like Rhea. But unlike her, I was… asleep.”

I frowned, processing her words. “What do you mean?”

“I don’t know how I got here. I don’t know why I exist inside you,” she admitted. “But for as long as I can remember, I’ve been stuck here in a deep sleep. I could hear things happening around you, but I couldn’t do anything. Not until something woke me up.”

“What woke you up?” I inquired.

Jade shook her head. “I don’t know, and I know that it wasn’t just random—I’m sure of that. One day, I just… woke up.” She hesitat

    Aria’s POV“How is she feeling that way? What's making her feel that way?”Jade’s voice softened. “This matter with Astrid and Knox is making her feel like she’s losing Knox, like she's losing her mate all over again.”I squeezed my eyes shut.“Your pregnancy hormones aren’t helping either,” Jade continued. “Your emotions are all over the place, and it’s making Rhea’s pain worse. You’re hurting, and she’s feeling it ten times over, because it's reminding her too much of Liam's rejection caused by a beta's daughter, though this time it's a beta's sister.”Rhea whimpered in pain again, and my heart clenched as I looked down at her, “So she’s… reliving it?” I whispered, my throat tight. “The rejection?”Jade sighed, crossing her arms. “Not exactly. But it feels the same to her. She lost one mate because of a beta’s daughter, and now, she thinks she’s losing another because of a beta’s sister.”I swallowed hard, and my hands shook as I stroked Rhea’s fur. “But that’s not true. Knox isn’t l

    Aria’s POVI could hear Knox’s voice as he discussed with Healer Felicia with a low voice, so I kept my eyes closed.“Do you think it’s just because of the pregnancy?” Knox asked with a concerned voice, “Because it felt a whole lot more than that. Before she passed out, she was acting completely different. I have never seen her like that before.”“I understand what you’re trying to say, Alpha,” Felicia said, “But trust me, these hormones can change someone’s personality totally, especially in....unmarked females.” She said reluctantly.Knox cleared his throat uncomfortably. “Oh,” he said simply.There was an awkward silence, before Felicia broke it. “But, may I ask why you haven’t–”“No,” Knox said coldly, “You may not ask.”Another voice spoke up. “Calm down, Alpha. You know that she means no harm, she’s just being curious.”My eyes flew open instantly. It was Astrid. She was here, in the hospital room with Knox.I clenched my fist, as annoyance surged through me.Jade’s voice echoed

    Aria’s POVI put on the large hoodie, making sure it kept my face hidden.“So, why do you want me to go there? Do you want to heal him?” I asked.‘Something like that,’ Jade replied vaguely.“How do you do it?” I asked, sitting on the bench, to put on the sneakers.‘Do what?’ she asked.“The healing stuff,” I clarified, tying the laces. “It’s something I can’t find an explanation for.”There was silence, and I paused. She wasn’t going to answer.However, she sighed. ‘I don’t even know. I just knew that I could do it, and just like that, I did it.’I frowned. “You don’t know?”‘I know it doesn’t sound convincing, but that’s the truth. There are so many things I can’t even begin to explain about myself or what I can do.’I ran a hand through my hair, shaking my head in exasperation. “I want to believe you, Jade. I really do.” I sighed.I sneaked out of the storage room where I had borrowed (stolen) some clothes and walked through the clinic hallways, keeping my head down under the hoodie

    Pain.It slammed into me like a wave. It crashed through my body, and I clenched my jaw, trying to endure it.But this pain felt so different, as though it wasn't coming from me.“Jade,” I whimpered, gasping for air. “I think I can feel his pain.”‘What?!’ Jade sounded panicked. ‘What the hell? That’s not supposed to happen!’My chest tightened even further. I could feel every ache and suffering that the man had been enduring—his sickness, his exhaustion, everything was pouring into me.I squeezed my eyes shut, “J-Jade,” I gasped out, my voice shaking. “What do I do?”‘I don’t know!’ she snapped, sounding frantic. ‘I don’t understand what’s happening. Let go, before something bad happens.’However, I didn't want to. Maybe there was something I could do.‘Aria, let go now!’ Jade yelled.I didn't let go. I was looking for something.‘Aria, you will kill yourself, is that what you want?!’ She yelled.I could feel something. I could feel it, I just needed to reach further.‘Aria!’ Jade's v

    Aria's POV“I'm really sorry for everything, Aria?” Knox murmured softly.I kept my eyes on him. “What are you sorry for?” I asked.“Everything,” he replied.I shook my head. “No, you have to be specific.”Knox paused for a moment, then he nodded. “I’m sorry for not telling you about Astrid before. I should have. I didn’t think it mattered, but I see now that it did.”I swallowed, my throat was still dry, but I didn't care about water now. “And?”His grip on my waist tightened slightly. “I’m sorry for dismissing your feelings, for making you feel like you were overreacting when you weren’t. I know that I would have reacted worse than that.”I looked away from his earnest eyes. I wanted to believe him, but a part of me still felt hurt and betrayed. “And?”Knox bit his lips. “I'm sorry for making you feel like you needed to compete for my attention, when I'm already yours. I never meant to do that.”He sighed, his voice softening even more. “I’m sorry for leaving you here. I shouldn't ha

    Aria's POVMy furrow deepened as I got even more confused. “What?” I asked. I didn't remember any of that happening.“You were crying and writhing on the bed, like you were in a lot of pain. I tried waking you up, but you wouldn't wake up no matter how I called or shook you. It was so scary. I called Felicia, she’s on her way.”I stared at Knox, my heart pounding in my chest. “But, I… I don’t remember any of that.”Knox pulled back slightly to look at me. His eyebrows were furrowed in concern. “What do you mean?”I shook my head, still trying to process what he was saying. “I remember falling asleep. I remember feeling exhausted, but nothing else. I didn’t feel any pain. At least… I don’t think I did.”Knox’s grip on me tightened. “Aria, you were crying. You kept saying it hurt everywhere—your chest, your head, your whole body. I tried everything to wake you up, but you wouldn’t respond.”I opened my mouth, but I didn’t know what to say.None of this made sense.The door opened, and we

    Aria’s POV“What?”Knox frowned slightly. “Jade? Who is she?”I blinked, still in shock. “Where did you hear that name?”His frown deepened slightly. “When you were screaming and writhing in pain, you were muttering her name,” he replied.I racked my brain as I tried to remember what would have made me call her name, but I came up blank. The only thing I could remember was that darkness, and the feeling that something was wrong, but nothing else. I would ask Jade later what was going on.Knox must have been getting suspicious because of my reaction, and lack of response, because his gaze sharpened. “Aria? What’s going on? You’re acting weird,” he commented.I still didn't respond, as my mind raced. How was I going to tell him about a voice in my head? How was I going to tell him other things concerning the voice?‘Don’t even dare it.’ Jade hissed, and I almost flinched at the harshness of her voice.I couldn’t reply to her, because of Knox.‘Do you know how many things could go wrong i

    Aria’s POVImmediately Knox heard my voice, he whirled around with concern in his eyes. I ignored the looks that others were giving me, and kept my eyes on him.His brows furrowed as he quickly made his way back to me. He looked tense. “Aria, are you okay?” he murmured, and his hands immediately started scanning my arms, my shoulders, my face, to check for any signs of harm.I started to nod at first, then I shook my head. “No, Knox, I… I am not.” I admitted softly. “I…I have something to tell you.” I muttered.His frown deepened as he watched me. I avoided his eyes, turning away. “Please come inside,” I said quietly, even as my heart pounded.Even as I spoke, my throat felt tight. Fear clawed at me. I was scared of how he would react, and I was scared of what this conversation would mean for us.Knox hesitated only for a moment before he nodded, and followed me inside, locking the door behind him. A strange shiver ran down my spine. There was no turning back now.I took a deep breath,

    Aria's POVI opened my eyes to see Knox hovering over me, his gray eyes with worry. His hands were holding onto mine tightly, like he was afraid I would disappear if he let go.“Aria?” He said softly, and I smiled.“Hey,”He exhaled sharply in relief, and his shoulder sagged as if he had been holding his breath this whole time.“Thank the moon goddess.” He breathed, running a hand through his hair. “Even though you had told me what to expect, I didn’t expect it to be that scary, Aria.” He admitted, gripping my hand tighter.I lifted an eyebrow at him. “Did you freak out?” I asked with a small smile.He scoffed as though I had asked a ridiculous question, “Of course I did. Do you have any idea how scary it was to watch you pass out so abruptly?”I furrowed my eyebrows in thought. “How long was I unconscious?” I asked.“Four hours, Aria. You were unconscious for four damn hours,” he replied, clenching his jaw.I blinked in surprise, “Four hours? Really? But it didn’t feel like that over

    Aria's POVI swallowed. “So… is that why I passed out?” I had been worried that something had gone wrong.“Of course it is,” Mama Felz said dryly, taking another sip of whiskey. “If you weren’t such a stubborn little shit, you would have stopped before it got this bad. Your body must have been giving you fucking signs.”I winced. It had been a long time since I had been called a ‘little shit’.Gosh, I was already missing Knox—he called me little angel.“So, what do I do now?” I asked her.She sighed and leaned back. “You wait. You rest. Your body needs time to recover. There ain't no quick fix for this, kid.”I pressed my lips together. I didn’t like that answer. Knox was probably losing his mind right now, and Hunter.My stomach clenched. “Will the person I was healing be okay?”She eyed me for a moment, then nodded. “Yeah. What you did should hold. But if you push yourself like that again too soon, you might fall into a magical exhaustion coma, and those are fucking pains in the ass

    Aria's POVMy mouth gaped open in shock as I stared at the glaring woman in front of me.Mama Felz looked me up and down like I was a stray dog that had just pissed on her doorstep.Was I hallucinating? Because there was no way I was back at the Gray Moon Pack.My heart skipped a beat. What if I was?“Hey!” Mama Felz snapped, “I asked you a fucking question! What the fuck are you doing here?”Panic gripped me as I imagined what would happen if I was back at the Gray Moon Pack.“Where… Where am I?” I asked shakily, glancing around as I prayed internally that I was hallucinating. “Am I really back at the Gray Moon Pack?”She frowned at me. “Of course not! What kind of stupid question is that? Have you started teleporting?”I shook my head slowly. “I don’t…I don’t think so.” I muttered slowly. I wasn’t sure, because I hadn’t even known that I could heal people.Mama Felz must have seen something on my face because she sighed. “You’re not here physically. This is just a projection.” She e

    Aria's POVKnox had ordered everyone out of the room, claiming that the Alpha King and Luna Queen needed to pay their last respects to the Beta. At this point, Hunter was paralyzed.A small thrill of satisfaction coursed through me when Astrid rushed to Knox with tears running down her face, and he stepped away, coldly telling her to step outside too. I knew I shouldn’t be feeling that way, but I couldn’t help it. Knox wasn’t a comforting shoulder for her to lean on, and it wasn’t like Hunter was going to die.She sobbed, looking confused. “But… he’s my brother. He’s dying, and I need somebody to—”“My mate and I are here to pay our last respects. Step outside.” Knox interrupted coldly.It was probably cruel of Knox, as Hunter was her only living relative who was currently dying, but Knox knew how I felt about his relationship with Astrid. Besides, he knew that there was a probability that Hunter wasn’t going to die, so he wasn’t as cruel as they were probably thinking.Immediately the

    Aria's POVKnox clenched his fists. “And I can’t stand by and watch you hurt yourself… you're too precious for that, I can't lose you.” he said softly.The room was silent, and the air was thick with tension.This was about Knox’s fear of losing me.I reached for his hand. “Please,” I whispered. “Trust me.”Knox’s jaw tightened stubbornly.“I won't be able to live with myself if Hunter dies, when I know I could have done something to help him. It will haunt me forever, please.” I pleaded, placing my palm on his chest.His eyes stayed on mine, filled with worry, frustration and desperation.After what felt like an eternity, he released a shaky breath.“Damn it,” he muttered.My heart pounded. “Knox—”“I’ll be there,” he said firmly, “And if I notice that anything is about to go wrong, you'll have to stop.”Relief flooded through me, and I nodded. “Okay.”Knox pulled me into his arms again. This time he held me tightly like he was scared of losing me. I closed my eyes, enjoying the warmt

    Aria's POV“Absolutely not!” Knox snapped, and I flinched at his harsh tone.~Jade kept cursing me internally. She had wanted me to heal Hunter first, before telling Knox, but I was done with keeping secrets. So immediately I heard that Knox had returned and was in Hunter’s room. I quickly made my decision, and rushed out to meet him.Knox was on his way to my room when I met him. His clothes were torn and stained with blood. However, there were no scratches or bites on him. Relief flooded through me, and my tense muscles relaxed. Knox was alright.I knew we still had a few unresolved issues, but those could wait for now. I threw my arms around him as a sob escaped me. “Oh, thank the moon goddess, you’re alive”, I sobbed, tightening my arms around him.I could feel as the tension in his body melted away, and he relaxed, wrapping his arms around my body.“My little angel,” he murmured, burying his nose into my air and inhaled deeply, relaxing even moreAfter a few minutes, we pulled aw

I thought to myself.‘You can go heal him.’ Jade said.I frowned in confusion. “I’m sorry, what are you saying?” I asked.‘I think you should try to save his life.’ She replied.“What do you mean? You just persuaded me from doing so, reminding me that I was risking the life of my unborn child. Now you want me to go ahead?”‘No, no. I'm not asking you to risk your life or your pregnancy. There's something I want us to try. If it works, there's a high possibility that we can heal him—without harming you or the baby.’My heart skipped a beat. “What?”Jade pressed. “When you healed that man, you took his sickness. You absorbed it. But this isn’t just sickness—it’s venom. Something entirely different.”I swallowed hard, glancing at Hunter’s trembling body. “So what are you saying?”‘I’m saying that we need to do things differently.’ She re

    Aria's POVTwo healers rushed in, carrying a man. Blood dripped from his arm, soaking his shirt. He was gasping, and struggling to breathe.My stomach clenched. Something was wrong.He looked worse than someone who had just been injured in a fight. His body shook violently, his skin was pale, and sweat poured from his face like someone who had a high fever.Then someone spoke the words that made my heart drop.“Vampire bite.”Everything froze.There was a chilling silence that settled over the room as everyone realized what those two words meant.Felicia pushed through the crowd, with a pale face. “Get him inside, now!”The healers hurried him into one of the rooms, but I couldn’t move as fear gripped me.A vampire bite.Where was Knox?My chest tightened. My mind raced with several horrible scenarios. What if he was out there, fighting, and got bitten too? What if—“No. Stop. He’s fine. He has to be fine.” I muttered to myself.I clenched my hands, trying to focus, but my heart pound

    Aria’s POVKnox’s gray eyes changed to crimson, and the atmosphere in the room changed instantly. Something shifted in him, and a deep growl escaped him.My heart pounded. Vampires? How?“Where?” He snarled, his voice sounded different, like he and Fenrir were speaking at the same time.The hair on my arms stood, and a shiver ran down my spine. My instincts screamed at me to step back, to lower my head, to submit.I didn’t.Shawn, however, lowered his head, visibly shaking as he stammered. “At the northern border. The pack patrol warriors are already there, but they need backup.”Knox’s body tensed, and his fists were clenched so tightly. He was struggling to keep Fenrir contained. Fenrir was clawing at the surface, ready to tear something apart.“Let’s go now. Gather more pack warriors,” Knox ordered, and Shawn nodded, leaving to do as he was ordered.Knox turned to leave, but he hesitated. His fists were clenched at his sides, and his jaw was tight as if he were holding something bac
