In labor

AURORA

What happened wasn’t child’s play at all. I have to look into it because something just doesn’t feel right, and I need to figure it out. I wouldn’t want to risk the safety of my family just because of my negligence.

Bringing up the matter to my mate, I will have to talk to him about it. He needs to know how I feel about the sudden occurrence, but ever since the naming rites had ended, I haven’t gotten the chance to do so.

We all went into the hall, the throne room. People threw congratulatory messages at us. Some people greeted us with handshakes and bows, some people greeted us with prayers, while some greeted us with gifts.

Ralph and I accepted them all. We moved to the table where family and friends were sitting, waiting for us.

“Congratulations, sister,” Annora said with a smile. I tried to hug her, but her big stomach was preventing me from getting close, so I just gave her a side warm hug. She has been with me all the way, very supportive.

    AURORAThe scream from Annora sent me almost flying to God knows where. Why is this happening? Why now of all times? Annora chose to go into labor at this critical time?I went still on the chair I was sitting on. My brain refused to process any new things at the moment. I felt like I zoned out the moment I heard Annora’s scream.I mean, why are all these happening? I knew it. The dark sky that happened earlier must definitely have something to do with these unfortunate events taking turns. First, it was Adrian that escaped from the cell, and now, it is Annora in labor. Who knows what will be next?For goddess’s sake, I was right here enjoying my peaceful life. There were no difficulties, no casualties, no cause to think or be afraid of whatever might happen because everything was so perfect.I had my happy family and friends surrounding me with love. There was unity and so much happiness, but all this will get ruined in one night? How did my fate suddenly turn out like this?Annora’s

    AURORA This wasn’t happening. This can’t be happening. For gods sake, this shouldn’t be happening. Annora was trying hard. She was trying. She was giving it her best shot. She was right on it, almost there. Annora was doing very well. She was pushing, screaming, giving it her best! The baby was supposed to be out by now with the way her screams were loud and heavy, the baby was supposed to be out crying and we should be in jubilation that it was a safe delivery.Why did this have to happen? I mean, why all of a sudden? Danisa said she could see the head of the baby earlier and the next thing I expected when she managed to convince Annora to give the last push was for the baby to drop out of her with a loud cry.But reverse was the case. Annora has freaking passed out and I am freaking out. My body was shaking as I held Jasmine tightly. It wasn’t supposed to be this hard to get a delivery done.Annora was already close to delivery or I would have considered the delivery a pre deliver

    ANNORAThe push wasn’t easy at all. I pushed like my life was solely dependent on it. The child made it so difficult because it refused to come out no matter how hard I pushed.I passed out and woke up again. My moans of pain weren’t enough because I started screaming at each count of push I heard and still, the baby never came out.At last, Brian rushed in. I almost burst into tears upon seeing him because if he had been here earlier, it wouldn’t have been this difficult.“Calm down, Nora. It will be fine.” Brian whispered in my ear, and I nodded aggressively.It would. Now that he is here, it will be fine. His soothing words came at the right time as I tried to regulate my breathing because I was already sweating. The wet towel on my forehead was concealing the beads of sweat that were on my head.“Relax. Everything will be fine.” Brian repeated.I wanted to yell at him for putting me in this position, but I couldn’t blame him because I wanted to birth children for him too. Delivery

  • Aurora: The Betrayed Luna   Escape

    RALPH The thoughts of the dark clouds were itching my mind as I stared at my mate. Aurora was equally worried. I knew she would be. Dark clouds appearing on your child’s naming ceremony and you would remain unworried? It isn’t possible. I thought what the cause could be, back and forth but I couldn’t find a reasonable reason. It just happened. I was sure it isn’t just an ordinary thing because it has never happened before and it had to happen in the exact day of the celebration, the exact time my child was about to be named. Wasn’t that enough to consider? We pushed the strange occurrence aside and decided to adjust to the current atmosphere which was the joyous celebration we were having. Even if I was worried, I still had to push the thoughts aside and live tonight to the best. I teased Brian particularly about his pregnant mate. He would soon be a father just like me and would soon begin to face the responsibilities. All of a sudden, some guards rushed in. I knew something

  • Aurora: The Betrayed Luna   I released Adrian

    BRIAN The news was a shock. We didn’t expect it at all. How was it possible that Adrian escaped? I mean, the cell was safely locked, and there was no way he could have slipped out. The guards were also highly skilled ones. How could he have escaped while their eyes were wide open?I was lost for words when the guards came to inform us of the latest development, which was the escape of Adrian. Earlier on, at the naming ceremony ground, that was where the sky suddenly turned dark.At first, I thought it was just climate change, but when I looked at it closely, it didn’t seem like a natural thing at all. It was a strange occurrence that happened. I was glad when Ralph gave his son, Jasper, to me to take care of while he went to his mate and other child.I was uncertain about what the possibilities would turn out to be. Today was a day of celebration that everyone had looked forward to. Now that we were all trying to forget our problems and live a little, that was the exact time for Adri

    Ralph "What is she doing here? I mean, I didn’t summon her. I didn’t need her help, so I didn’t ask her to come. What exactly is she doing here? “What are you doing here, Seraphina?” I asked, straddling Jasmine in my arms so she wouldn’t cry. It seems she wants to sleep, but this isn’t the time for Aurora to feed her yet as there are still many things going on that need to be sorted. An example is why Seraphina is here. “I released Adrian,” Seraphina said. Gasps sounded in the room while it seemed I didn’t hear her well. What did she just say? Because the only thing I heard was ‘I’ and ‘Adrian.' Was it a problem with my hearing, or did my brain just fail to process it? I took one step closer. “What did you say?” My tone was rigid. Seraphina’s eyes wavered like she was afraid. Of course, she should be! “I released Adrian from his cell,” she repeated. My nose flared in anger. She was the reason Adrian escaped. Like, she helped him escape? Exactly! She was the reason why the cell w

It has been a while since we have had vegetables, so I decided to check the ones in my garden out; maybe they were okay enough to be used for dinner tonight.My daughter has been reminding me for almost a week now about these same vegetables. I didn’t want to go to the market because I didn’t have enough money to purchase the vegetables, and I didn’t want to upset her.The garden that was a few meters away from my house was built by me. I had it as a way to find something to do when there was nothing at all. Tomatoes, peppers, spinach, onions, vegetables, fruits like grapes and carrots were planted, to mention a few of them.Those were what my daughter and I survived on for years. I was banished. I was exiled with peace. I did wrong things, but instead of me being killed, I was sent away.Manipulating the Alpha was what I did. I assisted evil instead of exposing it. If it had been do

    Ralph“My daughter was abducted.” Seraphina said, and I scoffed.Why didn’t she come to me when her daughter was abducted? Why is she just coming now after she had freed Adrian? It is like crying over spilled milk.“I tried to reason with them about what they wanted. They told me they wanted me to cast spells so Adrian would break free from the cell. I swear, I didn’t want to agree to it.” Seraphina began to explain.She paused and continued, “But I did agree to it when they threatened to kill Ema, my daughter. It wasn’t my intention. I was on my own when they came. My daughter was already involved; there was nothing I could have done but agree to their terms so my daughter wouldn’t die.”“Was she killed or not?” I cut into the explanation she was making.Seraphina shook her head negatively. “They didn’t kill her, but even after doing what they wanted, they still took Ema with them. That was when I realized they were going to make me do more spells or hurt more people by using my daug

    Aurora I watched the faces of the crowd go pale as they saw her head drop to a side and everywhere erupted in chaos as someone shouted. "A dead Alpha!" People stood to leave in a rush knowing the meaning of the very clear statement yet I watched closely. I knew they would come for her.The chaos and noise woke her from her slumber.It took her a while to adjust her eyes to the light but she eventually did and looked around frantically. I had let her sit freely without binding her to the chair so she could lead me to my target. 'Where is he?' I was in her head not as a mind link but as a torment perks of being the blue blood leader actually, I could invade their heads and get them to do my bidding but I rarely used my powers out of courtesy. This was one of the rare occasions. She held her head as if to silence my voice and jumped to her feet. On seeing this most people paused seeing she was alive."She's alive!" Cheers erupted so the ceremony could continue. "Please mount the podi

He said getting down from the bed to leave."Don't force me to get the information from you because I can and I bet you already know who I am." I stopped him."Just leave me the fuck alone. I said I'm not who you think I am."He was getting agitated, maybe he thought I was pulling his legs and trying to frame him like they had done his mum before he suddenly went missing. "Liar." I lifted his shirt to reveal the mark of my mother's bloodline .I had the same matk in the same spot."Do you still have anything to say for yourself?" I asked when he didn't deny further."What do you want from me? My past is buried." He looked sad and lost. I threw my hand around him and hugged him.He was much older than me but he had suffered a lot and I heard the stories growing up and only got to spend a few years with him durin

    AuroraI had less than twenty four hours to either get it right or get it wrong, I realized my heart wasn't beating irregularly because I knew I was in full control yet still I wasn't ready for the worst to come."What are you going to do with her?" Connie asked me as she and Lyon watched the unconscious Zendaya lie in state."Wait, I'll wait for her to come around and snitch on us." I said actually meaning it.I needed her to regain consciousness and call for back up. I was going to end it all where it began. "Then?" Lyon was quite curious."Then the party begins." I told them"Alright now you're beginning to sound exactly as the Alpha would and that's wierd as fuck." Lyon cringed and I laughed but my heart was sad, I hoped the news got to him as well and he made an effort to come see for himself. "Do you think he'll come?" I asked none of them in particular. "I can't say for sure that the news will get to him given that he is not in his pack." Lyon shrugged. He was right, Ralph w

He was also cautious not to start the war first and I suspected that he still wasn't confident enough in his fortification. No matter the elements including magic, an Alpha remained an Alpha with the blessings of the goddess and several different other gifts. I needed to find Aurora and rescue Lyon, those were the most important things to me at the time. I returned with Kristen to where Brian held up with the rest after getting Annora to safety and I realized why Adrian was playing safe,He was already quite outnumbered seeing that we had two Alphas on our side.Completely exhausted I tried to communicate wi

    AuroraIt took a while, lots of effort and all what not to get things out of Zendaya and surprisingly she had still not given me the answers I wanted.She had only given a silly condition for a bargain and I thought it quite fair."Just kill me because my tongue swore an oat not to disclose that information so I wont." She had boldly said that when I plucked her tooth one after the other with a plier and got my alibi to pull out her nails one after the other.A beautiful feel of satisfaction I got watching her writhe in pain but it wasn't exactly enough for me.Seeing the lifeless body of father had definitely brought a chill to my spine and blood, I had become cold hearted towards the parties involved and all I wanted to know was who was in charge.After much operations, Zendaya had offered to take us to the location. "Do you think we can trust her?" Connie asked me when I told her we were going to return to ny dad's pack and recover the seat of power since it was still vacant. Conn

    RalphIt was like a movie where you watched lovers tear at each other's throats but what did I care?Adrian laid his bed and he was going to lie in it. Hopefully he was going to rest in peace with his father.I watched the tournament and observed Adrian's strength and weaknesses. He healed very fast, his speed was primal too and his attacks very accurate.Definitely, something had happened to him and I could see that he wasn't even fighting Kylie, he was just defending himself and pushing her away so he didn't hurt her until she found the dagger again."Good girl," I muttered as I saw her hand swing very fast before he could notice to stab him from the back as he laid on her trying to subdue her with his huge frame and weight.Like I said, his speed had greatly improved and in a split second, he rolled off her when he finally saw the dagger.I saw the look of shock on Kylie's face when his weight was lifted off her but she was already in full motion and she couldn't stop herself."Kyl

Kylie mouthed.I saw everything I stood for and fought for, fall to the ground but I couldn't rush in and pull out the stake to start treatment for him.It was a bloody scene, my Dad was still not close enough for me to trespass. I felt my head become light."Kylie why?" I felt a hand squeeze my heart tight that she of all people would betray me this much."Oh common, he's a prisoner charged with treason with a death penalty hanging over his head all this while. He was bound to die sooner or later." Ralph said smiling like the devil himself. I didn't see it coming. I knew had a devil side to him.Ralph had raised my hopes very high and taken me to a vulnerable state only to crash me at lightning speed with the worse thunder bolt; my mate.If it was someone else then I would have wasted no time to rip the person into two with the powers I had attained."I guess you can commend me for being a good Alpha now not so?" He paused and grinned like a child. "I have served

    AdrianThe shock I received ran through to my bone marrow when my eyes fell on my mate Kylie, what was she doing here?I had picked her scent first but Ralph's blow had destabilized me in my distracted state and I felt the impact move me meters away but I was least bothered about that."Kylie," I called her name but she stood in her spot at his side. What a dirty game Ralph was playing, I knew him as a principled man and the last thing I expected was for him to drag my innocent mate into all of this."Addy, stop all of this please," she had tears in her eyes as Kristen held her hands to the back not letting her run into my longing arms."Baby I..." I lost the words, I could feel the bond pulling me to her, dampening all my vigor and lust for revenge Damn the goddess for such strong bonds of love that came with fated mates, love was the greatest force of attraction but I couldn't back down from my course simply because she asked, I had gone far deep and there was no redemption for me

His voice was different too, I would have blamed it on magic but I already picked his scent from a mile away."Somewhere in my head I still thought that you'll be decent enough to address me as Alpha but I see that you already severed all the ties." I replied quite calm."There's not much to gain from given that I'm never going to kneel before you." "Bastard," I threw it at him utterly disgusted by his audacity. "More like the Ralph I know, calm doesn't suit you at all." Something was wrong, they had done things to Adrian and he had the look of a murderous monster in his eyes."Where's my mate?" I asked going straight to the point. "Your mate?"
