TYLA’S POV“I love your confidence and what you did and don’t worry…I have a perfect plan we can use in getting back at the Alpha.”“Lilian…I really don’t want any of that and besides I was the reason why Thane reacted the way he did.” I said.“Don’t say that..he had no right accusing you of enjoying the kiss anyway when it was Aurelius who started it.”“You think so??” I asked.“I know so…now you are going to do everything I ask you to do okay and you can’t object to any of it…promise.”“Why does this sound like a trap??” I asked with my eyebrow raised.“Do you trust me??” “Of course I trust you Lilian.”“The promise you are going to do exactly as I instruct.”“Alright, I promise.” I said.“First we need to give you a makeover and look for a means to cover that nasty bruise on your stomach before it heals.” she said.“Okay, that’s not bad.” I said with a smile.“And also, Aurelius has a huge part to play in my plans.” Lilian said.“No..no..no…I am done with Aurel…I don’t even want t
TYLA'S POV“It can’t be…that’s the same time my parents died!!!”“Really??? Do you have any idea how they died??” Aurelius asked.“No…I was too young and I only knew they died alongside my sister.”“I am so sorry about that.” “I am sorry too about your parents getting murdered by rogues.” I said.“It's all good…that experience has only made me stronger.”“Yeah…speaking of rogues, I have been attacked by one before…and as a matter of fact, it happened when I came into this pack.” I said.“Really?? How???”“When Thane brought me here, I didn't want to stay and so I tried escaping and when I got close to the pack border, I met one who bite me by the way.” I said.“A rogue bite you??” Aurelius asked as he burst into laughter.“It's not funny.” I said as I playfully hit him.“I am sorry…it just sounded so funny in my head…I've heard of rogues ripping one apart, using silver stakes but biting?? That's a new one.” “Have you ever been attacked by a rogue before??” I asked.“Not really.”“It
WRITER'S POVAurelius didn't quite understand what Tyla meant by saying Thane was with another and so he quickly carried her bridal style and raced down to the pack clinic.“Someone take her!!!!” He boomed in rage and confusion as he handed her to one of the pack healers.Just as they took her away, Aurelius saw the dress Tyla was wore raised a bit as he opened his eyes wide in shock seeing the bruise on Tyla's stomach.“That bastard!!!” He yelled as he stormed out of the clinic and headed to the pack house.As soon as he arrived at the pack house, Aurelius headed straight to Thane's room and he could hear moaning sounds coming out of it.“Open the fucking door you dirty piece of shit!!!!!” Aurelius boomed in anger as he banged harshly on Thane's door.The banging was loud enough to bring down the entire pack house.Thane on the other hand went on with his business and as Aurelius grew restless waiting for Thane to open the door, he took the Matter into his own hands as he burst the d
WRITER'S POV“That’s enough from the both of you!!!!!!!” someone yelled from the hallway.Thane and Aurelius's heads snapped to the hallway as they met their furious Mother standing there.She walked closer to them in rage.“Let go of Thane's hand, now!!” She commanded Aurelius as he dropped her hand.“Mother..we…”“I don't want to hear it from the both of you!!!! You all have turned me into a thing of mockery in my own pack or have you forgotten so soon I was once a Luna of this pack???!!! Now anywhere I go, I hear whispers of how I can't control my own children!!!”“Mother, we are sorry.” Thane said.“I don't want to hear it…where's the pack healer??” she asked.“Hello Alpha Mother…I am the healer in charge of the young lady that was brought in.”“Tell me…what is going on with her???”“She was brought in here unconscious and had some terrible bruises on her stomach…I ask who was her mate amongst them as she needs her mate's touch to heal faster but the Alpha and his brother have yet
THANE'S POV“Wh..who..are you???” Tyla asked as she looked at me with a confused expression on her face.I on the other hand kept the same confused look at her because I didn't understand why she was asking me who I was.“Don't you know who I am??” I asked.“No I don't..I am sorry.” She said.“Look, Tyla, I understand that I hurt you and I am deeply sorry about it but if this is a joke, please stop it because it's not funny.” I said.“Joke?? I don't understand what you are saying sir…I don't know who you are.” She said again and with a serious look on her face.I knew she was serious this time around and so I stood up and ran out to get the pack healer.“Alpha, what is it??? Did something happen to your mate??” The healer asked as she noticed the urgency I used in getting over to her.“She opened her eyes a while ago and when I tried speaking to her, she told me she doesn't know me.” I said.“What?? Are you sure about that Alpha??”“Do I look like I am joking??? I said my mate told me
ARSENIO'S POV“Yes, of course I remember you, Aurelius.” Tyla said.“This has got to be a fucking joke!!!!” I yelled in anger as Tyla flinched.“Thane,keep your voice down!!” My Mother warned.“She is pretending to have lost her memory Mother…she didn't lose her memory at all!! How come she knows who Aurelius is and doesn't know her own mate??!!”“You can't be so sure son.”“The healer told me a while ago that she only remembers memories of her being in her previous pack and that she doesn't remember any of the memories she had here since the day she stepped foot into this pack and if I am correct, she met Aurelius for the first time here so how come she remembers him??” I asked as my blood boiled.“Look Thane, yelling or getting all angry and worked up isn't going to solve anything…we have to figure out what exactly is wrong with Tyla and why this is happening.” My Mother said.“This is all bullshit!!!” I said as I stormed out of the clinic and headed back to the pack house.I opened
TYLA'S POVAfter Thane stormed out of the clinic due to my outburst of not knowing who he was, I sighed deeply in relief.The truth was that I never lost my memory and I knew everyone and everything even down to how I ended up in the Clinic.What Thane did to me hurt me deeply and I could have died if it wasn't for Aurelius's quick actions and so I thought deeply about what to do and how to pay him back and then the idea of me pretending to have lost my memory came to me.I could tell ma'am Sherleen was worried as she looked at me and at that moment, I contemplated on whether I should tell her the truth or not.She has been to me from the onset and has even defended me against her own son.“Ma'am??” I called.“Yes dear??”“Can I speak to you, alone?? I have some personal questions for you.” I said.“Of course dear, Aurelius, please excuse us.” “Sure.” Aurelius said with a smile as he walked away.I could tell he was extremely excited due to the fact that I said I could only recognize
WRITER'S POV“Are you ready to officially become the Luna of the Tiger wood blood pack??” The pack elder asked Tyla as she hung her mouth open in shock.She looked at Sherleen who had a wide smile on her face.Suddenly memories of before came flooding into Tyla's mind as she remembered all of Lilian's words in regards to the responsibilities of a Luna and now that Aurelius was involved in the strange mess she was in, she knew it would be difficult.“I am not ready to become Luna.” Tyla bit out.“But why?? Everything is…” Sherleen asked but was stopped by the Elder's hand gesture.“My dear, I understand your plight and to be honest, the responsibility of a Luna is not an easy one…Sherleen can definitely attest to that but you don't have to be scared ..you have people who would back you up in a heartbeat.” The elder said.“But I don't think I possess the qualities of being a good Luna.” Tyla said.“The first quality of being a good Luna is to take up the responsibility of helping others
TYLA'S POVAs I walked back to the pack house, I couldn't help but think about what Lilian had told me.As much as I hated Bridget for playing such a cruel game with me and Thane, I still couldn't help but feel pity on her because infertility was something that was pretty serious.“Hello, Tyla.” A voice said as I gasped in shock.I assumed it was someone maybe from the pack seeing as though I was already Luna and I could be mind linked by anyone in the pack.“Who is it??” I asked.“Has it been so long that you don't recognize the voice of your own wolf??”“Lyra???!!” I asked in amazement.“Hello to you too Tyla.”“Oh goodness!!! It's been so long and I have missed you!! You just went mute on me when I needed you the most and it isn't fair to be honest.” I said.“I didn't go mute on purpose..I told you what needed to be done to get me back but you didn't.” Lyra said.“It's not my fault Lyra..Thane was so unpredictable as at that time and I just couldn't do what you asked until I was su
BRIDGET'S POVAfter Thane and Tyla walked out of Sherleen's room, I turned to her with a sad look on my face.“Mother, all of this drama happening in the pack isn't good for me or my unborn child.” I said with a pretended sad look on my face.“I will handle everything…you just get some rest and tomorrow hand me the pregnancy results.” Sherleen said as I mentally rolled my eyes.“Thank you mother.”“Sleep well Mom.” Emmy said as we walked back into our room.As soon as I closed the door behind me, Emmy's voice hit me like a slap to the face."You lied to me, Bridget!" Emmy yelled as I flinched. He rarely ever raised his voice at me, but now his eyes were wild with fury. He paced the room like a caged animal, and I could feel the anger radiating off him in waves."Emmy, please." I started, walking toward him slowly. "You have to understand, I had no choice.""No choice?" he barked. "You told the Alpha and his mate that you were pregnant. Do you know what kind of chaos that could cau
TYLA'S POV Thane and I walked silently back to the pack. The weight of the day’s events sat heavily between us, neither of us quite ready to speak but I couldn’t keep quiet any longer. My thoughts were too loud, too painful, too confusing.I had an uneasy feeling in my stomach and I couldn't detect why because just when I think I know Bridget and have caught her in her own games, she suddenly moves around and does something else more shocking.“Thane…” I started softly, not even sure I wanted to hear the answer. “Do you think Bridget is really pregnant? Or is this just another part of her twisted plan to escape whatever punishment is coming for her?”Thane’s brows pulled together as he stopped walking. He didn’t answer right away. He looked ahead, jaw clenched tightly, like he was sifting through years of memories, searching for a truth even he wasn’t sure he wanted to find.“She’s always been like this.” he finally said. “From the moment she joined the pack as Emmy’s mate,she
WRITER'S POVThe tension in the air could have sliced through stone. Sherleen's expression was unreadable, but her narrowed eyes said enough. Thane stepped forward cautiously, his hand brushing Tyla's as if to reassure her."Mother," he said with a slight bow of his head. "You called for us?"Sherleen gave a curt nod. "We need to talk…All of us."Tyla exchanged a glance with Thane, her gut knotting tighter with each second."What is this about?" Thane asked, his voice careful, controlled.Bridget stepped forward, feigning a nervous expression. "We didn't mean to cause any trouble..we only came to ask what you both are going to do with the child.” she began, her tone soft and uncharacteristically meek.Tyla watched her with narrowed eyes. The same woman who brought an imposter as Thane's child.. The same woman whose every word now made her skin crawl."Is that why you are here?" Tyla asked coldly.Bridget hesitated for dramatic effect, glancing at Emmy, who stood beside her with
TYLA'S POVWarm steam rose from the water as Thane gently carried me into the bathroom. I leaned my head against his shoulder, still feeling the weight of everything that had happened…the lies, the child, the pain and the pleasure but something in his touch told me we were crossing into a new place now. One where truth mattered more than pride.He set me down softly into the bathtub, his arms still wrapped around me like he was afraid to let go.For a moment, we sat in silence, the water lapping quietly around us.Then, at the same time, we both said. “I have something I want to tell you.”We blinked at each other in surprise. I gave a small laugh and shook my head.“You first.” I said, brushing a wet strand of hair from my face.“No, you.” he insisted, his tone gentle but serious.I hesitated for a moment as my heart thudded in my chest. Would he believe me? Could we really trust each other after everything? I took a deep breath and stared into his eyes.“Alright, It’s about the
TYLA'S POVThane was the only person who has successfully confused the hell out of me.I couldn't think straight whenever I was with him and I couldn't understand how I could love and fear someone at the same time.“Because I want you too, Thane!!! Amidst my fears and uncertainties, I want you!!” I said.Everything I said was true because I did want Thane more than anyone and the fact that I choose him to the moon goddess's second chance mate she had given to me proves that what I felt was real.“Then say no more, Tyla.” Thane said as he kissed me.I wrapped my arms around his shoulders as I pulled him closer and kissed him back with the same intensity and desire he had kissed me.Thane held my legs around his waist as he shoved away everything on his study table and Continued assaulting my face with kisses.He kissed my lips, eyes, nose, forehead and he kept on saying I was enough for him.Suddenly I noticed his eyes switched colours and I knew his wolf was in full mood and without a
THANE'S POV“A while back, I got a letter like this…it slipped through the door and it had this similar content where the person said I chose wrong by choosing you instead of Aurelius.” Tyla said as I looked at her in shock.“Wait what??? When did this happen??”“It's been quite a while but it wasn't too long ago..it was the night of my Luna ceremony.”“And you are just telling me about this now??!!” I asked in anger.This could have gotten worse and the fact that Tyla choose to keep this important information from me only just made me question the kind of relationship we share. “I didn't think it fit ro tell you because you had a lot on your plate too and besides I thought it was just someone playing tricks on me.” Tyla said as I scoffed.I walked around the room as I paced back and forth restlessly while running my hands through my hair.“Tyla, the essence of this relationship that we both share isn't only about the pack responsibilities…one of the major responsibility we both have
WRITER'S POVBridget smiled like everything was normal, like the world wasn’t crashing down around Thane.His gut told him something was off the second Bridget handed him the result at the clinic but what hit the hardest was how convincing the whole lie looked.He stood in the hallway for a long while, his mind a storm of confusion.Should he tell Tyla now or should he wait?She was already breaking.The look on her face earlier hurt, betrayal, pain…Thane’s heart clenched and he couldn’t bear to see her like that again.He walked back to the room and sat on the edge of the couch, staring at the white envelope on the table like it was a ticking bomb.“Shawn?” he whispered aloud, needing Shawn, his wolf who could understand him. “What now?”“I am sure you must have known what has been going on and now I got the results.” Thane said aloud. “But it’s fake…Bridget gave me a fake result.”“You’re sure?” Shawn asked.“Positive…The pack healer sent me the real result and this one, this one’
THANE'S POVThe morning light cut through the clouds, but it felt too bright for the heaviness in my chest. I stood outside the clinic, hands in my pockets, staring at the building like it held the answers to everything..or maybe the end of everything.I wasn’t ready for the truth. But I needed it.My shoes hit the floor harder than I meant as I walked in. The pack nurse at the front desk gave me a polite nod, clearly recognizing me. “Alpha Thane, the pack healer will be with you shortly.”I nodded back but didn’t sit down as I couldn't. My whole body was tense, like I was preparing for war. Tyla’s face flashed in my mind and how hurt she looked when I asked for the test. How she walked away from me, again and how I swallowed the guilt.I was doing this for the truth, For her, For the pack, and for the child. “Thane?” a soft voice called. I turned. It wasn’t the pack healer.It was Bridget.She looked calm, too calm. Her hands were clasped in front of her, and her eyes held t
