And another surprise chapter, hehe.
Leonardo: “Your fucking plan failed” I said, letting out a low growl as I sat on my bed in the bedroom. Anastasia was outside with Elena, and Dante was busy with Aurora while Angelina was with Alessandro, probably banging inside their room. Mom entered the room, and shaking her head in question, I motioned for her to stay quiet as I glared at the wall ahead of me. She sat on the edge of the bed beside me, the two of us have been patient enough under the shadows of Angelina, Giovanni, and Dante. This family has drained us more than we should have been, and now that my body was burning with fire and desire, I wanted nothing more than to break the man’s neck; however, Aurora appearing to be pregnant, again, made us postpone whatever we had planned. “The plan did not fail, Leonardo” Giovanni, my Alpha, and the one man that I could see myself serving, until I killed him anyway. Mom shook her head at me, and putting a hand on my knee, she squeezed it gently, wanting me to calm down. I
Dante: I smiled, entering the bedroom to find Aurora scrolling through her laptop as she lay on bed. Her hand was on her stomach as she rubbed it gently, and the laptop was on her lap. Most of her things were already here as we gradually, and silently, had her moving here, closing her apartment as she moved with me. She smiled at me, and got up from the bed. I put the necklace’s bag on the dresser. The ring was hidden with Nicolas, as I didn't want her seeing it before I knew that she was ready for this. I wrapped my arms around her, hugging her tightly. She laid her head on my chest, and I kissed the crown of her head, purring at my beauty. I pulled away and got down on my knees to kiss her stomach. Aurora smiled, and putting her hand on my hair, she ran her fingers through my strands, gently pulling on my roots. I smiled up at her, and pulled her toward the bed. The two of us sat on the edge of it as I wrapped my arm around her, pulling her to my chest. “How are you feeling?”
Mattia: “Mattia D’Angelo, you have visitors” the officer said, entering the room that Giovanni and I were staying in. The men around us looked at me, and I nodded, watching as the officer walked out of the room, waiting for me as they stood by the door. Having hung up on Giovanni earlier, both of us were worried that things got more messed up than they already were. Them being caught was something that I didn’t want to think of, especially since I didn’t know how I would be able to get them out of this if needed. Giovanni nodded at me, and walking out of the room by the officer’s side, I smiled when I entered the cafeteria to see my mate and son standing in front of me. Gabriella’s eyes lit up when she saw me; however, Leonardo looked like he saw a ghost. His eyes stared into space and his life was drained from his face, making me frown in confusion. I wrapped my arms around my mate, hugging her tightly, taking in the scent that I have missed for so long. I kissed the crown of he
Leonardo: “Are you sure that you’re okay, Leo?” Mom asked as the two of us entered the house. I turned to face her, and cupping her cheeks, I gave her a weak smile before nodding, and kissing her forehead. “I am fine, mama, I just need to process a few things” I said, taking a step back. “We are yet to discuss how you are so sure that Alessandro won’t easily find us using his compass. You do realize that he could trace us…” “He cannot, mother, as I believe that you seem to forget that I am the carrier of the eye” I said, showing her the eye that Mattia gave me the day he told me of what he’s been up to. The eye was an ancient ornament that was made by the best friend of the first compass owner. It was said that the two were inseparable, and could have been mistaken as brothers. Their main intention in making them was to contain their power, to make them the strongest of men and beings, but some stories say that the compass carrier grew greedy, and the others say that the eye’s ca
Aurora: “Angelina, what is going on?” I asked, frowning when my stomach hurt me more than it usually did. My baby, feeling my nervous state, grew more nervous by the second, kicking me as if his life depended on it. “I don’t know, Alessandro asked me to stay back…” Angelina frowned, before a choked cry escaped her lips, and following her gaze, my jaw dropped at the sight. My mate, Dante, held a limp Anastasia in his arms. Her hand, which would have normally been on her stomach if she had any control of it, was limp in the air, and blood, her blood, coated her clothes and my mate’s, making my lips quiver. I tried listening to her heartbeat only for my throat to tighten when I couldn’t hear her pulse. Seeing that, Elena, Maria and Angelina froze before Angelina wrapped her arms around her daughter, pulling her to her chest, and hiding her face on her chest, not wanting her to look at the scene before her eyes, I knew that I was not dreaming or hallucinating Nicolas and Alessandro
Nicolas: I smiled as mom handed Aurora her son before walking out of the room, giving her privacy to feed her baby, and wanting her to stay as calm as she could be after what she’s been through. The fear, and the pain that she’s passed was something that I knew was hard on her; however, I was thankful that she managed to get through this without asking too many questions. I dialed Dante’s number, trying to call him; however, again, he did not answer. Having called him seven times while searching for the things in the bathroom, I was forced to do nothing more than help Aurora through this, not wanting her to grow more nervous than she was. Hell, I wasn’t the one going through labor and seeing her in the state that she was in, I grew frightened not wanting anything to happen” “Where the fuck are you, Dante?” I hissed before throwing my phone on the couch. Mom walked out of the room and shook her head in question. She was yet to hear about what Anastasia said, but judging by everythi
Dante: I walked toward the car, my heart breaking with each step as I processed what Anastasia told me before she took her last breath before her heart stopped beating. My tears refused to fall from my eyes despite the pain that I was feeling. My chest was on fire as my heart bled, and for the first time in my life, I felt like I was stabbed in my heart, making it bleed rather than pump blood as it normally should have. Leonardo, my brother, and best friend, was betraying us this entire time? It was something that I couldn’t accept no matter how hard I tried to do so. My hands shook as I put her inside the car, laying her down in the backseat. I was aware of mom, Elena, and Alessandro following me; however, I couldn’t open my mouth to speak to any of them. I got inside the car, wanting to drive her to the hospital, wanting to prepare her for a proper burial. And it wasn’t until I put my key inside the keyhole that I broke down before hitting the steering wheel. Mom, Elena, an
Eva: “I will find her for you, mama, and we will unite as a family; but I want you to promise me that you will be patient, okay?” I heard Leonardo say, and I shook my head before I drove off. The man was stupid enough to believe that the eye that he had was the real one. Hell, I was surprised that his own idiot of a father thought that he was worthy of it; but then again, if an idiot like him believed that Giovanni wouldn’t kill him the second he got the compass, then what else was I going to expect? I drove toward Dante’s house, shaking my head at the fact that Leonardo was stupid enough to not only kill his mate, but his heir, the Eye’s Heir, and though I knew that I most likely wouldn’t be able to save the child; saving the woman would spare him the sin which would lead to his death. The man deserved to watch the man he served die first before he was killed by the man he betrayed. I watched from a distance, and my heart raced as my wolf grew anxious at the scent of my mate being
Leonardo:Fifteen years ago:“Leo, you shouldn’t be disrespecting your Alpha!” Angelina said, snapping at me. I had to fight letting out a low growl at the woman who wouldn’t even listen to me. The fact that she just assumed that I was disrespecting him simply because I was responding to him was something that I couldn’t get my head around, but then again, as mom always told me, he was her son, and I wasn’t. “I did not disrespect him! He was the one who yelled at me” I snapped, making mom growl in warning. And that was when I snapped “why don’t you ask me what happened? Why did you just assume that I disrespected him? He left ME to be bullied while he went back to Elena, and I asked why he didn’t help”“Would he have left his little sister to get hurt?” Angelina asked “the girl is six, and SHE was the one who was bullied, if you had defended her, it is because it is your duty. If that is something that you cannot get inside your head, why are you considering yourself her older brothe
Dante: “Are you sure that this is the first thing you want to do after being away from home for the past month?” I asked Alessandro who smirked as he crossed his arms over his chest. He looked at mom who smiled and nodded, knowing that he would be coming to her when he was done. “Yes, I have a few things to catch up on later, but for now, there is a little mosquito that I want to get rid of” he said, making me chuckle. I nodded and Alessandro, Nicolas, and I walked toward the cells. I knew that Aurora was in the house making us something to eat before I came, and we would be having the first family dinner together, as literally one family, for the first time since Alessandro was shot. Alpha Sebastian, who has something that he wants to tell Nicolas and I, was also here. Thankfully, we had an idea about what he was going to tell us, but being an Alpha, and Elena’s brothers above all, he knew that he needed to speak to us first before proceeding with anything. Seeing as I had no reaso
Eva: I stared at Madam Clara who was holding my child in her arms, trying to convince myself that this was not just a dream, and I won’t wake up not finding my son in front of me. “I named him Marcellus, Marcel for short” she said “I remember you telling me that you wanted to name him that when you were first pregnant if the baby was a boy” “How?” I asked, trying to stop my tears from falling from my eyes. Maria, who was sitting beside me, wrapped her arm around me as she pulled me to her chest, trying to comfort me. “Alpha Sebastian got us out that night. It turns out he lived in the same building at the time, and just as he was trying to escape the fire, he heard our voices. He broke the door and came inside. I don’t even know how he managed to get us out without getting any of us killed. But I remember waking up around a month or so later, with him holding Marcel in his arms, and looking at me in the hospital bed. I had lost consciousness during the fire” she said, making my he
Aurora: “Aurora, he’s opening his eyes, you can relax” Dante said, wrapping his arms around me from the back, stopping me from pacing as we waited in the waiting room. “What?” I asked, turning around to face him, hoping that this wasn’t something that I just imagined. “Your dad is waking up, the nurse just told me. They’re taking him to his room now, then we can go and see him” he said, and wrapping my arms around him, I hugged him tightly as tears fell from my eyes before I could stop them. Having changed the wedding dress to clothes that Maria bought for me, I was now wearing sweatpants and a white crop top and Dante’s suit jacket. He and Nicolas rolled their shirt sleeves up, and we’ve been here throughout the night, waiting for good news to come. “It means he’s fine, right? They’re not going to need to send him to the ER again…?” “Aurora, breathe, neonata” he whispered to me, stopping me “he is fine. The bullet didn’t touch his heart, and the lost blood, they donated to him,
Dante: I smiled as the doors opened, revealing my mate who was walking out wearing her beautiful white wedding dress. Alessandro had his arm looped with hers, and the smile on her face could be seen a mile away under the beautiful white veil she wore. Alessandro’s eyes met mine and he smiled, both happy and proud of the two of us for making such a choice. I knew that he was also happy that he, at least, got to have a chance of taking one role of a father, considering that he had lost so much time and had missed so much in his daughter’s life. Mom’s eyes met mine and the smile of proudness that was on her face was one that I would never forget, and looking at Nicolas who stood beside me as my best man, I smiled, thankful for the man who has entered my life so suddenly but changed so much about me. My brother, someone that I knew that I could at least lean on when I felt weak, and the best part was, he didn’t do it for anything in return, for once, I met a person who was being genuin
Aurora: My heart raced against my ribcage as I walked out of the dressing room, wearing my wedding dress. Anastasia, Eva, and Elena, who were my bridesmaids, gasped when they saw me. And catching sight of my reflection, I couldn’t help the tears that formed in my eyes. I never thought that I would ever live to see this moment, especially being a wolf, we didn’t really have weddings. “No, no, you are not going to ruin your makeup with your tears” Eva said, wiping my tears from my eyes before they fell. Her eyes met mine and I smiled, wrapping my arms around her, thankful for the help that she and the girls showed me. These were things that a girl mostly did with her mother and sisters, I was blessed with sisters of choice. “Thank you for today” I said, pulling away from the hug to look at the girls “all of you, I swear I don’t know what I would have done if it weren’t for you being there for me” Elena and Anastasia hugged me, and I smiled as tears fell from my eyes. And catchin
Nicolas: “Well, tonight went well” Eva said, smiling as we entered the house. The two of us have been sharing a house at the pack, mostly because we were growing closer with each passing day and I was growing both more attached to and protective over her. “Yes, thankfully” I said, running my fingers through my hair as I looked at her, admiring her. Her curves made my blood travel south where I really didn’t need it to right now. Having found her, I was sure not to touch another woman so as not to come home with a love bite or a female’s scent, fearing that she would grow upset. And respecting the fact that she might not want to rush things, especially after how she lost her mate. I wanted her to be sure that she wanted to be with me. My heart raced, and turning toward the room, I knew to dismiss myself before she caught the boner, and plus, it was not like she was going to say anything else anyway. Unless Nico Sandro was around us, she rarely ever opened a conversation; therefore,
Dante: “Dante!” Aurora laughed, trying to escape my grasp as I tickled her. The two of us were laying on bed, naked, need I add, and I was growing a little excited for my mate. “Yes, mi amor?” I asked, biting her earlobe, my voice above a whisper, making sure that my breath hit her neck. She giggled, trying to muffle her moan, of course, that didn’t work. I purred, and lowering my face to her neck, I kissed her sweet spot, gently sucking on it before turning her around, making her lay on her back as I hovered over her body. Her eyes met mine, and I smiled, running my finger over her cheek before I leaned in to kiss her. My beauty, having turned her on, spread her legs for me to settle between them, and smirking, I did as she desired. Her hips moved upwards, grinding against me, and it was seconds later that I pulled away from her lips to rest my forehead against hers and position myself at her entrance. She gasped before her back arched as I thrust into her, making sure to be as
Giovanni: “The fancy proposal of ‘The Billionaire D’Angelo’ to his lover and girlfriend Aurora” I read out loud, rolling my eyes as I read the news. I tapped my fingers on the armrest twice as the picture of Dante on his knee in front of Aurora as she looked at the ring as he placed it in her finger. I folded the newspaper that I was reading before throwing it aside, and shaking my head at how things got to where they were; however, it wouldn’t be long before their perfect love story ended. I just needed to find the perfect timing to do it. “Boss, she is losing it again” Santos, my new second hand, said, entering my office. The man did not bother knocking on the door, not that he needed to, the door was wide open considering that no one, aside from him, dared approach this room to begin with. I sighed and got up from my chair, picking up the newspaper and taking it with me, knowing that it would be the perfect chance, before heading toward Gabriella’s room where she was locked an
