Damon, Vlad, and Mikhail arrived at the pack grounds, their faces etched with determination and concern. The sight before them was heart-wrenching: homes reduced to rubble, the remains of burned structures scattered around, and the groans of the wounded interspersed with the frantic cries of those still fighting.Without hesitation, the three Alphas joined the pack warriors already engaged in battle. The Rogues, seeing the sheer power and coordination of the combined forces of the three Alphas, they began to falter. Their numbers dwindled rapidly under the relentless assault of the pack's defenders. But desperation turned the tide; the Rogues, now cornered, resorted to throwing explosives into the pack’s homes.The air was soon filled with the sharp staccato of detonations. The explosions shattered windows, tore apart walls, and ignited fires. The Pack members scrambled to evacuate, their faces masks of fear and determination. The warriors fought bravely, their growls and roars mingl
8pm..April emerged from the bathroom, her mind still spinning from the events of the day. She had tried to shake off the weight of her encounter with Jessica and Lucifer, focusing instead on the present. But as she stepped out, she noticed Aiden sitting on the edge of the bed, his shoulders slumped and his face drawn in a deep sadness.Concern etched on her features, April hurried over. “Aiden, what’s wrong? You look... devastated.”Aiden looked up, his eyes dark and hollow. He hesitated, struggling to find the right words. “It’s nothing, April. Just... some bad news.”She sat down next to him, her hand resting gently on his arm. “You can tell me. What happened?”Aiden took a deep breath, forcing himself to meet her gaze. “Aside from Lucifer’s pack, there’s another pack—Damon’s pack. I found out today that there was a war. Damon’s mother... she was killed.”April’s eyes widened in shock. “ Yes, I know about Damon. He's Lucifer's sworn enemy. I guess they were dragging the company bac
★ NEXT MORNING★April was in the bedroom, buttoning her blouse and getting ready for work when her eyes fell on Aiden’s necklace lying on the dresser. She picked it up and read the inscription: *Nosce Hostem - Know Your Enemy*. The words seemed to glint ominously in the morning light. She called out to Aiden, who was in the kitchen preparing breakfast for the kids. “Aiden,” she said, holding up the necklace, “you left this here.”Aiden walked over, took the necklace, and slipped it back around his neck without a second thought. He gave April a quick kiss on the forehead. "Thanks. Don’t forget to grab something to eat at the office, okay?"April smiled, nodding as she picked up her purse. “I will. I’ll see you tonight.”With that, April left for work, while Aiden turned his attention to the twins. He had promised April he would enroll Alex and Sophia in the same school as Sergei. He called out to Katya, who was gathering the kids’ things by the front door. “Katya, let's get the kids
Aiden kept his footsteps quiet as he moved further into the dense forest, the shadows enveloping him like an old friend. He hadn’t intended to stay so long, hadn’t planned to witness the heartache of the pack he had once been a part of. But seeing Damon’s grief up close had stirred something deep within him—a longing to mend what was broken, though he knew it was impossible.The wind rustled through the trees, carrying the lingering scent of smoke and sorrow. Aiden paused, leaning against a tree, his chest heaving with the effort of holding back his emotions. His thoughts drifted to Luna Light, her gentle voice and warm smile still vivid in his memory. She had been one of the few who had seen the good in him, even when he couldn’t see it himself. The loss weighed heavily on his heart, and the pain of her death mixed with his own unresolved guilt.As Aiden continued to walk, the sounds of the pack’s mourning faded behind him. He didn’t know where he was going—only that he needed to put
Aiden stood by the window, staring out into the darkening sky. He had lost track of time, the hours blurring together as he wrestled with his thoughts. His mind was a storm of memories, plans, and regrets, each one cutting deeper than the last. The guilt of Luna Light’s death weighed heavily on him, a constant reminder of the decisions that had led him to this point. He felt trapped in his own mind, unable to shake the burden of his choices.The sound of the front door opening snapped him out of his reverie. He heard April’s voice downstairs, the familiar cadence that usually brought him comfort now only adding to his anxiety. " Vina!! Change the kids into something better and severe them something light to eat. Make sure they sleep okay?" April told the maid, who was carrying Sergei." Yes ma'am" as she turned to leave with the kids, April suddenly remembered something. " Vina? Where is your boss's brother? My husband Aiden?" She asked, with a mixed feeling." Sir Aiden had been in
As Aiden sat by the bed, his hand still clutching April’s, the soft padding of tiny footsteps caught his attention. He turned to see Alex and Sophia standing hesitantly at the doorway, their wide eyes taking in the sight of their father’s tear-streaked face and their mother lying still on the bed. The innocent confusion on their faces tugged at Aiden’s heartstrings, adding another layer of guilt to the already heavy burden he carried.“Dad?” Alex asked, his voice small and tentative. “Why are you crying? Is Mom… is she dead?”Aiden’s chest tightened at the question, and he quickly forced a smile, though it didn’t quite reach his eyes. He could see the worry etched on his children’s faces, their young minds struggling to process the scene before them. The last thing he wanted was to scare them, to add to their own fears. He took a deep breath, composing himself as best he could, before standing up and walking over to them.“No, no, sweethearts,” Aiden said softly, kneeling down to thei
The garden of the Feral Fury Pack was alive with laughter and chatter, a rare moment of warmth amidst the usually tense atmosphere. It was a rare sight to see everyone gathered together like this—Mikhail, Jessica, Genevieve, Spike, Luciano, Gift, Damon, and Lucifer, all sharing in the lightness of the moment. The day was perfect; the sun was setting, casting a golden glow over the flowers, and for once, it felt like a true family reunion, despite the many wounds they all carried.Luna Loveth was at the center of it all, radiating a sense of calm that everyone had missed. She was smiling, watching as her pack enjoyed a peaceful evening. But the serenity of the moment shifted when Jessica spoke up, her voice tinged with curiosity and something else—a hint of suspicion.“You know,” Jessica started, her eyes darting to everyone gathered, “I saw a child today who looks just like April. And there was a boy with her...he looks like his father, but he has Lucifer’s eyes.”
7pmShadows moved silently along the perimeter of a desolate compound. A moonless sky offered the perfect cover as a group of men dressed entirely in black, faces concealed behind masks, scaled the high fence with the agility of trained operatives. Each man moved with precision, landing softly on the other side, their presence marked only by the faint rustle of leaves underfoot.They spread out, synchronizing their movements as they approached the main entrance. The leader, identifiable only by a subtle nod, signaled for the men to halt. With a silent hand gesture, he directed two of them to take out the guards patrolling the area. They crept forward, knives glinting briefly in the dim security lights. There was no struggle, just the swift, efficient elimination of the guards whose throats were slit in one fluid motion, their bodies lowered gently to the ground to avoid any noise that might alert the others. The faint scent of iron mingled with the stench of deca
