OMG! 30k readers milestone! Thank you so much for this everyone, I really do hope that you're enjoying it! So, in other words, back to topic. Aurora grew more protective as she is pregnant, now, what would SHE do when she finds out? Don't forget, she is still very angry with Dante, and would still be a bit more emotional, and can be aggressive. So, I believe that our Alpha is in for it from his little neonata, don't you? Don't forget to vote, comment, and leave a review. Ps. My apologies for not updating yesterday without any notice, but you know, life can make us change plans at times, haha. Hope you're not too upset with me though *puppy dog eyes?* Until the next chapter. Bye.
Aurora: I frowned as I sat up to find myself inside my room, and on top of my bed. My head throbbed, and my body felt weak despite not remembering putting much of an effort. The smell of food filled my nostrils making me frown, especially since I didn’t remember myself getting up to cook, at ALL. I got up from bed, and couldn’t help the low growl that escaped my chest at the sight of Dante who stood in my kitchen, cooking. He chuckled but didn’t bother to turn to look at me, and catching sight of the roses that were in a vase, on top of the counter, I shook my head as I took a step inside the kitchen. “I take it that you’re not here to kill me just yet” he stated, turning the stove off as he looked at me. “What are you still doing here?” I asked, shaking my head at him. He didn’t respond for a few seconds, studying my expression before he sighed. “I didn’t mean to break something in you, Aurora…” “I asked a question, Dante” I said, stopping him “at this point, it doesn’t even m
Dante: “What are we going to do now?” Aurora asked, shaking her head as she placed her hand on her stomach. The two of us were heading to the hospital where Laura worked for her ultrasound, and despite her being excited about it, I could tell that she was more than just a little nervous. “We’re going to see how far our baby is, and we’re going to make sure that you and the baby are healthy. Yes, she told me yesterday that you two were, but I still want her to take some blood tests to ensure that” I said, looking at my beauty as I drove. If she was going to risk going to Giovanni, I needed to be sure that it wouldn’t be dangerous on her or the baby; otherwise, we would just drop the whole fucking thing and leave just like mom said. My mate, baby, and family were a lot more important to me than some revenge that seemed to be throwing us in random loopholes. “Then what?” She asked, biting her bottom lip. “Then, my neonata, we’re going to go home, to let mom know of this. I am sure th
Aurora:“Anything?” I asked Leo who shook his head.My heart ached, and I knew that something happened, though what it was, I couldn’t tell. Him disappearing like that, and until now. The way he hung up. I knew Dante enough to know that he wouldn’t do that unless it was important, unless, I hoped so. But judging by Leonardo’s reaction, I could tell that Dante wasn’t the type to do such a thing.“Did you at least try to call him again?” I asked, running my fingers through my hair as I did. Leonardo sat beside me, and taking my hand in his, he squeezed it gently. The two of us were already back at Dante’s apartment once we were done with all the work we had to do, and there was still no news on him. Not even a phone call. AND IT WAS A WHILE PAST NINE AT NIGHT!“You need to relax, Aurora, you’re just draining yourself. You haven’t eaten anything all day, and you’ve been pacing around…”“Dante?” I asked, stopping Leonardo, standing up from the couch that I was sitting on. “Shit…” Leona
Dante: The man’s words played in my head as I opened my eyes the next morning. My vision blurred as the light hit my eyes, and the headache that formed afterwards didn’t help much, but that was the last thing that I could care to think about right now. My heartbeat was calm, and my wound bandaged, and despite just waking up, I couldn’t help but think of the topic. The man’s words played in my head regardless of whether or not I was exhausted. I hissed, sitting up on the bed to frown when I couldn’t find Aurora anywhere. I knew that she came to my side somewhere in the night. My wolf only relaxed upon feeling her presence close to me, and judging by the fact that my wolf was as calm despite being in distress, I knew that it was due to her being by my side. The fact that I knew that she was at risk of almost losing our baby last night didn’t help me much, and knowing that Leonardo would have done everything possible to prevent that didn’t help me either. In other words, I knew that
Aurora: “Dante, you getting up right now would not be good” I said, trying to push my mate back on the bed. But of course, Dante being his stubborn-self, did not listen. I knew that his mind was on what his mum had said earlier, and putting myself in his shoes, I couldn’t blame him for it; however, right now, he needed to rest to recover. “Aurora, please…” “Please, Dante, stop” I said, straddling his lap before he could say another word “I know that your mind is in a mess, and I know that you fought hard to stay in bed for the past three days; but you’re still hurt, and would need time to recover” “She is outside, refusing to enter the room so I don’t confront her” Dante said, making my heart ache. He was right, his mum was in the house, and no matter how many times he asked for her to come, she wouldn’t, and I knew her reasons. The woman kept such a fact from him throughout his whole life, and whatever her reason was, I knew that Dante wanted to hear it. “Dante, I know that yo
Dante: I walked out of the bedroom, shocking my family, who were sitting in the living room. Mom, who expected me to come to her first, flinched, fearing my reaction; however, she was not the reason why I got out of bed. My mate and beauty was standing out alone in the veranda, staring into space, as she got lost in her thoughts. She didn’t even know how much courage it took me to come and face her after what she said. She didn’t understand how ungrateful she made me feel to what I had. I had a family by my side, regardless of the mistakes that have happened, and regardless of whatever lies or secrets, I at least knew that I could go somewhere if I needed it. I just realized that she literally had no one, and that alone broke me more than I could express. I walked toward her, my steps careful as not to catch her attention or scare her before I wrapped my arms around her. She jumped for a second before allowing herself to relax in my embrace, and resting my chin on her shoulder, I
Aurora: Never in my life did I think that I would feel as empty and betrayed as I felt right now. I couldn’t even speak to the woman who looked me in the eye, claiming to be willing to take my mom’s place, when she lied to me. My heart ached, and I wasn’t even sure how I managed to reach my house let alone leave Dante’s house. Thankfully, my mate chose to respect my need for privacy this time. I was a volcano ready to explode, and I didn’t want him to be the one I exploded on. My heart broke, and I knew that this was not healthy for my baby, but the sob that broke from my lips was one that I could not control. I screamed, thankful for the soundproof walls that I had, I screamed as loud as I could before turning the whole table, watching as the tea set, plates, and flower vase that Dante got me fell to the ground, shattering to pieces. I sat on the floor beside the shards as I covered my eyes, my chest aching more than I could handle, and screaming again, I tried to let out the pa
Nicolas: “You do realize that he would kill you the second he could, right?” Alessandro asked, raising an eyebrow at me. I sighed and sat on the floor in front of the cell that he’s been living in for as long as I could remember. “You and I both know that I have no other option, Alessandro. He would kill mom the second he can, and I did not risk everything to end up watching her die” I said, shaking my head at him “you of all people should know the struggle that we’ve lived through before he even allowed us any peace” “And have you seen any peace since then?” He asked, shaking his head at me. I stayed quiet, looking down at my lap as I recalled the struggle that he made us live through. Not only did he look at me as a bastard child, but he treated mom as a whore despite being his wife. He forced the woman to sign divorce papers, making sure to ruin her reputation as not to allow her to work anywhere to support herself or me. Had it not been for Steven, another slave to the man, we w
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
