CHLOE
Morning came faster than I would have liked. I was getting totally cold about this meeting with Max.
I should have refused immediately, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. He was too sweet for me to break his heart like that.
And I know what it's like to anticipate rejection. I had to put up with this for months with Aaron.
And Max has been nothing but kind and thoughtful to us. Rhea murmured in my mind. She was completely right.
Let's just get this over with and try not to hurt Max's feelings in the process, I told her. She nodded in response.
I grabbed my phone that was charging, went down to the kitchen and found Mrs. Kala there, beating eggs.
"Good morning my love. Breakfast will be ready soon,” she said, smiling warmly at me.
“Lady Kala, it is really not necessary for you to come and prepare my meals.
I told Aaron I could do it,” I told her, and she quickly dismissed me.<
CHLOEThe hours passed painfully quickly.I sat at home, thinking about whether or not I should pretend to be sick and not go to the date. But then I imagine Max getting hurt because I dumped him, and I couldn't bring myself to do it.Max has been nothing but sweet to me since the first time I met himHe took care of me, gave me a shoulder to cry on when Aaron treated me—his own partner—like trash. Why couldn't I have been mated with Max? Why was the Moon Goddess so eager to keep me and Aaron together?It was clear as day that he didn't want me. He had only recently recognized me because I might be of royal descent, which could make him king of the werewolves.Just itKnock, knock. A-Miss. Kala knocked lightly on my door.“The day is over, Lady Chloe. I'm going back to the mansion now. Shouldn't you go meet beta Max in a bit?" she asked meMy stomach churned with anxiety.“Yes
CHLOEAfter Max and Emma recovered from the shock of finding out they were partners, the bond kicked in and they were practically all over each other.Don't get me wrong, I was super excited that the two people I loved like brothers found themselves partners.Still, I couldn't help but feel a little jealous of how quickly the bond brought them together.At first, Emma was reluctant to accept that Max was her partner, as he was known for being a womanizer.But the sincerity in Max's eyes, and the hint of their mating bond had been more than enough for her to give him a chance.Afterwards, we all went back to the pack house to have a small party for the new couple.It was Aspen's idea. She was thrilled to have more women around now that Max had found his partner.Miss Kala asked the kitchen staff to prepare some snacks.Needless to say, the house was overflowing with excitement over the fact that the beta had
CHLOESomehow I managed to escape Wendell and quickly run away for over an hour, dodging trees, trying to get away from the hunters. I was trying to get back to the pack house, to warn them, but I couldn't get past the renegade bastards. and I couldn't call anyone since I wasn't in wolf form.I couldn't transform. My white wolf would be an easy target.If I had been crowned a luna, I could talk to each member of the pack if I needed to, without having to transform. Somehow, the human hunters created a barrier that muffled the gunshots, so that no wolves were able to hear them. .If they could, they would now be invading the entire forest. This had to be the work of a witch, but how did they get one to cooperate with them?I smelled nine people in total, including Wendell and Tallulah.This bitch I couldn't believe she was working with them.That's how they got to know our weaknesses. This is how they managed to cross our
CHLOEI was stunned by what had just happened. For a moment, everyone in the fields stood still, in complete shock at what had happened.Psyche, Emma's wolf, had managed to kill the humans she was fighting.She ran to where I was.How the hell did you do that? Emma's voice screamed in my head.“I really don't know,” I said, looking down at my hands.What do you mean you don't know? You just buried a man alive!“Yes, I know that, but it’s a long story,” I said.Cronnos growled at us.Well, whatever you've done, make sure you keep doing it! - said Emma.At this moment, Max's wolf came to us, snuggling up to Psyche."Love are you OK?" he asked her.“I am, thanks to Rory,” Emma told him.Cut the chat! We still have to get rid of these idiots! Aaron growled at us. We all stayed alert. Humans ran towards us, ready to attack us.But we we
AARON “The doctor's diagnosis was that the mixture the witches threw in was a combination of dogkill and nightingale serum,” Remus explained. “He said it wasn't a strong dose of dogkill, so it wasn't that harmful, but the Affected pack members may be debilitated for a few days,” he continued. We sat in my office, assessing the situation that occurred the night before. He and I took less damage than the rest of the pack. scams aimed at his newfound partner, who happened to be Chloe's best friend. What were the chances? “There haven’t been many casualties so far?” I asked my gamma, inspecting the papers the pack doctor had sent me. “Very few, alpha. Just the trackers and warriors who were on guard and Tallulah Wilhelm,” he replied. He hesitated. “We still haven’t been able to contact the Blue Moon gang. My guess is that the pack disbanded when Tallulah failed in her task.” I was also sure that was the case. So far, our attempts to contact Alpha Wilhelm and his members have been futi
CHLOE I changed back to my human form and approached the gray-eyed woman. “Are you really Eleanora Winchester? A-Eleanora. Winchester who raised my mother?” I couldn't keep the emotion out of my voice. She was the only person who could have the answers I needed. She smiled. "Yes my dear. I am. And I hear her powers have awakened, though they still seem weak. That’s why I’m here – to train you and help you become the future queen of the lycanthropes.” Eleanora's voice was sincere, melodious and almost mesmerizing. It's the kind of voice that keeps any creature under its control. “How can I be sure you’re not an imposter? A witch that the hunters sent after me?” I asked, insecurity taking over. “You have every right to be wary of me, but please believe that I am here for your good and your good alone.” She seemed genuine, but could I trust her? Yes. She's not a threat to any of us, Rhea said, and we relaxed a little. “Can you really teach me how to control my powers?” I asked. “O
CHLOE “What is the purpose of your visit here, Eleanora?” Aaron asked. After our meeting outside, Aaron took me, Eleanora and Remus straight to his office and asked Mrs Kala to bring drinks for us Eleanora, peculiar, just asked for a kettle of boiled water. She took out some kind of herbal infusion from her bag and made tea for herself. “I’m here to help my goddaughter,” she replied nonchalantly. “Goddaughter?” Aaron and I said at the same time. "Yes. Her parents did me the honor of naming me her godmother,” she said with a warm look at me. “But why now, after all these years? Before we started looking into Chloe's mother's past, we had no idea you existed,” said Remus. “I had to go on a long trip, but as soon as I heard about my dear Rebecca's death, I sent someone to look after you. Of course, I didn’t expect her to become her father’s second chance.” I couldn't help the loud sigh that escaped my lips. “Montana...” I said as a lone tear ran down my cheek. I hadn't mentioned
CHLOE Eleanora and I were on our way to my house. She talked excitedly about my mother and what it was like raising her. “Oh, and when she met Rodrick! It was love at first sight. Their partner bond connected them immediately, and they have been inseparable ever since.” "How did they meet?" I had to ask the clan even though I knew the story by heart. Dad always told me when I was a kid Still, I never got tired of hearing it “It was at the annual Silver Bow pack dance. The alpha of that time decided to invite unmated female wolves from allied packs to see if their fated one was among them. My Becky wasn't interested in meeting her partner yet. In fact, she thought she was cursed and that she would never have a chance to meet her fate.” “Cursed? Why would she be cursed?” I asked, as she opened the door to the house. “My Becky was a bit pessimistic, you know. She thought her origins cursed her, and that she was destined to die as a lone wolf. That the royal line would end with her.
