AURELIA~~Hiding in plain sight has always been one of my few talents. Although I have always been singled out, I have also perfected the act of blending in and making sure I was not seen by the prying eyes of anyone who could prey on me… And by anyone, I meant everybody that I had come across in the past months, including Alpha Raiden’s men. Alpha Raiden…For someone who doesn't give a shit about me, he was quite persistent to find me. I knew he was sending his men out to every corner and small town so he could trap me again and punish me. That was his style. But I beat him this time. After all, I had survived the harsh world that I found after I escaped the Dark Moon Park. I survived for eight months, moving from one rogue territory to another, from one small dangerous town to another. I discovered that there was a whole different world beyond the territory of Dark Moon Pack where I have been all twenty-one years of existing as my pathetic self. “Move it!” Someone snarled beh
AURELIA~~Against all odds, I rose again, pushing my legs against the floor of the forest and pushing beyond the limit of any pregnant woman. “That bitch killed June. Don’t let her escape.” An angry masculine voice roared somewhere behind me. Their determination to catch me wasn’t shocking but the energy I suddenly obtained, the energy pumping through my veins as I ran, my hands on my lower belly, was alarming. Although I couldn’t see clearly in the dark forest, I let my legs carry me despite the fact that I kept falling over and over again. Every part of me was hurting, including my belly. The scratches from June’s fingers stung as my beads of sweat trickled over them.June… I killed her.She was the first person I would ever kill and as much as I hated it, her name has been etched in my memory. It would have been easier if she had remained some faceless and nameless woman… but now I knew her name and I would have to live with that for the rest of my life which might not be v
AURELIA ~~ *FIVE YEARS LATER* “This is just the beginning, Lia. Get your ass up!” Alpha Tristan’s voice echoed through the sparing section of the field. My ringing head and sore muscles protested as I pushed myself off the floor. “Clear your head and focus on your opponent. She won’t go easy on you just because you have fallen a thousand times in the last fifteen minutes.” His voice hit my eardrums again and again, I obeyed him, forcing my gaze to stay focused on the fierce brunette who had used my body as a mop to clean the field floor since we started sparring fifteen minutes ago. The fierce brunette, Jessica, smirked at me, “Listen to the Alpha, Lia. Going easy on you isn’t an option in my cookbook.” “I can only hope killing me during training isn’t in that book of yours as well, Jesi.” I retorted with a plea but amusement flashed through Jessica’s eyes as she threw another punch my way. I dodged. Yet I found my body crashing to the floor again before I could protect
ALPHA RAIDEN~~“Pack Games?” I asked nonchalantly. Andrew, who has been walking back to my home with me, scoffed. I could see him rolling his eyes despite the darkness surrounding us. “Yes, Alpha. The same one that comes up every five years. Please don’t act like you haven’t seen the publications–” Of course he was about to start scolding me.“I have seen them and I chose to ignore them, Drew. So can we stop talking about it now?” I cut him off before he could even begin.But still, Andrew retorted, “We can’t drop it because you have to be there.”“I don’t have to. You’ll travel down to Black Fur pack with anyone that wants to participate in the games and also represent me. I have got better things to do with my time.” I voiced out the plans I had made in my head. Andrew didn’t seem surprised but he was able to surprise me when he countered me, stopping dead in his tracks, “I won’t be representing you, Alpha Raiden.”He has got to be kidding me? Representing me was his duty as my
AURELIA~~For a pack that has been thriving on military power and ability, Black Fur looked festive for the first time since I became a member of the pack. The pack hasn’t welcomed anyone into its territory in the past five years… no one except my kids and I.Even for us, it took more than a year after I had my babies for the pack members to fully trust and accept us. But the Pack Games which will be kicking off tomorrow have changed the system of the pack. Ever since Alpha Tristan announced the competition to the pack last week, every pack member has been preparing to be a part of the competition. The warriors, the healers, the kids and even the older wolves have been assigned to carry out various duties and unfortunately for me, I have been assigned to the guest house that Tristan had prepared for all visiting Alphas and their men. I was to welcome them and help them settle in with some other warriors and omegas.Although I was no longer an omega because I had become a warrior,
ALPHA RAIDEN~~I watched her walk away, chasing after her being my first instinct. That was her.Aurelia. Or was I seeing things again?“You aren’t seeing things. That’s her and I have been trying to tell you since we entered Black Fur Pack. I sensed her but–” My wolf began, his voice spreading disbelief through my system. “But I thought it was a fluke.” I completed my wolf’s statement. Truly, after we drove past the borders of Black Fur Pack, my wolf stirred within me and I felt closer to my mate than I have ever felt in years but this wasn’t the first time I would feel Aurelia like she was beside me even though she had been gone for years. Sensing and craving her was a regular occurrence to me but seeing her in flesh wasn’t. “Aurelia,” I whispered with a shaky voice, my legs moving to catch up with her. Andrew’s hand shot out to grab mine as he said into my mind, “You can’t lose control here, Alpha, and not before the most cunning Alpha in the realm.” I snatched my hand
AURELIA~~For the umpteenth time, I tossed in my bed, ignoring the sun rays on my face. Somewhere in the corner of my mind, I knew I should be up and getting ready for the games but I remained in my bed, dreading the reality that would slam into me the second I stepped out of bed. He was here, after all.The man who did everything he could to kill me was here in the same pack with me. The pain and hatred that the sight of him arose in me yesterday at the guesthouse kept me up all night even though Inara tried to talk me into relaxing and preparing my mind for the duel I would be participating in today. “I can’t believe you wasted your energy worrying about that prick, Relia. You could have had a good night's sleep and saved your energy for whoever you would be up against in today’s challenge.” Inara complained, stirring in the back of my mind. “You think I want to be like this?” I asked my wolf, hiding my face in my pillow. “I loathe that man, Ina and he tried to kill Katie and
ALPHA RAIDEN~~My senses intensified when her gaze burned holes into my head and lingered. I knew it was her and my eyes quickly shifted to have a glimpse of her. There she was, walking confidently towards the warriors' section and dressed like one as well. Her black leather pants fitted her beautifully but it also made her appear stronger than I could remember. Heck! I couldn’t remember Aurelia as strong. She used to be everything but strong.But clearly, Andrew was right again. Aurelia was different. She has changed physically as well. The subtle curves that only I used to see in our sex room were much more visible and something inside me twisted when I realized that I wasn’t the only one looking at her right now. She used to wear her hair long and free but now, the black long hair I used to pull each time I push myself into her sweetness has been cut short, defining Aurelia’s jawline. Fuck! “Funny how you’re pissed yet horny. You want her badly but you can’t have her.” Lex
Princess Katie Anne~~“There’s something I have to tell you, baby…” My Mom breathed into my ears as we held each other and moved to the soft rhythm of the song. She still calls me baby. I was one of her eighteen years old baby. That brought a smile to my face.Also knowing that she was about to apologize to me for Dolf made the smile widen and I was about to tell her that I didn’t want to think about Dolf now... It was almost midnight…. I was almost eighteen. Like Elora said, it was a new era and the pain and anger of Dolf’s death shouldn’t go into the new era with me. However, my mom started talking again, “I know you have been challenged many times within these past two years, and as much as I hate to be the bearer of bad news, I also have to warn you so you can be prepared.” I shook my head, “No, Mom… Don’t tell me. I don’t want to know what you saw–” But I also wanted to know. Yet, I was terrified. Her tone terrified me. “I would be a bad mother if I didn’t tell you, b
Princess Katie Anne~~The eighteenth birthday of every wolf had always been unique. Even more than the sixteenth birthday when we got to have wolves– I was the exception; the only one in the entire Royal Dark Moon Pack.As expected, the grand hall where we have celebrated many wins since my parent moved us into our home, had been decorated with designs that suit the taste of not just me but also my twin brother. I don’t know how Mom does it but every year, she manages to fix a theme that satisfies both Kyle and me for our birthdays– Oh, I know how she does it. She is a Seer and a mind Reader after all. I couldn’t hold that against her though. I mean, thanks to her abilities, Kyle and I have always had the best birthdays, only compared to our siblings' birthdays, in the entire realm. And as always, I noticed guests from far and wide in the realm of the hall. My eyes lit up and I didn’t even know Elora had left my side as I saw my amazing uncles from Moon Stone Pack and of course,
Princess Katie Anne~~“You are a special girl…” Everyone tells me that. But it was exactly two years ago when I found out that everyone had been lying to me.In fact, I was just Katie Anne, the wolfLess Princess of the Werewolf Realm, not to forget the fact that I was the daughter of two powerful wolves, Alpha King Raiden and Luna Queen Aurelia Seer King. Being the daughter of the woman everyone thought was the last white wolf until she proved otherwise, found her people, and saved the realm from a witch and– argh! Being the first daughter of Aurelia Seer King was supposed to actually make me special but no. I was pathetic and an excuse for a daughter. Growing up, I used to think I would grow up to be a badass like my mom. I thought I would be able to fight, heal, fix, and bring peace to people’s hearts. I thought I would fill my mother’s shoes but I had come to realize that her shoes were too big for me. Perhaps Elora would one day fill our mother’s shoe–“C’mon Katie. You have
AURELIA~~After a few minutes of racing toward my daughter, who didn’t have to tell me where she was because I made use of my senses to find her, something she would have hated if Dolf’s life wasn’t on the line, I found her and Dolf lying in the middle of the forest.I didn’t have to ask Katie to know that she had woken up earlier than our training tie to race with Dolf.“Mom…” Katie cried out, violently moving her long black hair out of her face as she bent over Dolf’s body.The wolf’s eyes were still open but his heart rate was slow. I didn’t have to touch him to feel how weak he was. He shouldn’t have been racing with Katie.“What happened?” I asked both Katie and Dolf.Katie and Dolf have an unexplainable connection. My daughter was the only one who could talk to Katie through her mind despite showing little to no spiritual energy even after her sixteenth birthday.Katie and Dolf could speak through a mind link that no one else could access. I discovered this by accident when sh
AURELIA~~I couldn’t find her anywhere in the house. That was strange. Usually, she wakes me up and forces me into training with her but today was different and for many years now, I have been dreading change. The tiniest change spooked me because I knew the peace we have been enjoying for over a decade in the realm could be tainted by the smallest change.With ease, I glided down the stairway that I become familiar with. Raising five kids within these walls and living within it for almost eleven years simply means, I know every nook and cranny of it.But leave it to Katie to make me feel like a newbie in my own home.Thankfully, I ran into Kyle when I stepped into the living room. I sighed as I opened my arms to accommodate his much bigger, taller, and muscular frame. Ten years of growth did that to my baby. He was now a fully grown man– huh, not entirely. He was still just seventeen years old but he was taller than me and his muscles were bigger than mine even though he reluct
ALPHA RAIDEN~~The birth of Andrew’s child made me a godfather. I was elated and together, we threw another big party. I remember the sad days were I could only think of finding Aurelia or getting her and the kids back. Days were I couldn’t celebrate. But now, I could do that without hesitation.“What’s her name?” Kyle asked after Susanna and Andrew brought their daughter to their home and my family and I visited them. Susanna and Andrew exchanged looks and they announced simultaneously, “Camila.” I was sitting beside Aurelia, whose tummy was getting bigger by the day and I could tell she was about to gush over the cute name Andrew and Susanna chose for their baby while we have been unable to agree on names for ours.But before Aurelia could speak, Kyle stunned us all by saying, “Such a beautiful name for a beautiful girl.”If it had been Katie who said those words, we wouldn’t have been surprised as our daughter was a social butterfly but Kyle who would rather keep his thoughts
AURELIA~~Five months ago, I told my mate about the existence of our growing pups. Five months ago also marked the beginning of a celebration that would only end after our growing pups were born. Raiden had announced this to the entire pack after he finally left my side two days after I told him about the pregnancy. Within these five months, I had discovered that my mate could be even more clingy, more affectionate, and more… more everything that showed that he had grown to become the mate I needed and most importantly, the father our kids deserved. Also within these five months, several meetings have been held within our pack. The Alphas of every pack in the realm have visited many times to discuss the proposal that states to have Raiden and me as the King and Queen of every wolf in the realm. Seth, who was navigating the water with Phoebe, suggested this and surprisingly, everyone was okay with it and a week ago, a date was chosen for the official coronation that would install
Hi, dearest readers.I should probably begin this note by apologizing for my inconsistency this month. I'm certain some of you already hate me. Please don't. I have been busy and panicking about writing as well. Regardless, I'm sorry and I promise to complete this story within the next week. Yes, Aurelia's and Raiden's story has a few chapters left and I'm so excited for the ending. Alos I want to use this medium to thank you all for your support and love. I started writing this book ending of June 2024 and I must say, it's been a journey. A sweet one but also one that makes me worry as I plot and try to figure out what comes next in the story. However, your contributions, comments, votes, and kind words have helped me to the end. Thank you so much. I will always thank the heavens for you and this book. To be honest, I didn't expect my first book to perform this well. I was so scared when I started and I would be lying if I said I am no longer scared.But worrying is part of life, I
ALPHA RAIDEN~~I was certain I would kick Tristan’s wolf and everyone from Black Fur Pack out of my pack without thinking twice.But after everything I saw with the help of Aurelia, I knew keeping the wolf was the right thing to do, not just because he was a good wolf but because I also wanted to keep my enemy close. “I still don’t like this,” Lex grumbled within me as Aurelia and I gazed at each other, standing before our home. Let’s just say Lex has officially gotten a rival. Prior to this time, I was worried about having Tristan as a rival and in fact, wished him death. Lex was worried too but he was more worried now that Trstan’s wolf would be staying in our pack–“Not just our pack.” Lex countered. “You decided to bring him to our home. I don’t like that.” “He won’t be living with us, Lex,” I assured my wolf. But that didn’t lessen Lex's worry or should I say, jealousy.Aurelia asked me, “Are you ready?”To show my daughter that I didn’t throw Dolf out like I said I would?
