AURELIA

~<>~

I looked at the space where I had slept, cried, laughed, and felt many emotions in the past month for the last time. My kids and Hazel were already outside, and I was holding our last bag, ready to join them.

I sighed as I began to walk toward the door but I stopped when I heard the sound of a cell phone ringing. My brows furrowed because the sound wasn’t coming from my handbag where my cellphone was safely tucked away and switched off as I didn’t want to hear from Tristan who must have been notified of our departure by Raiden’s men.

There was no way anyone from Dark Moon would travel to Black Fur without informing Tristan.

Out of curiosity, I traced the ringing sound to the bedside drawer on Hazel’s side of the bed, and lo and behold, I found a phone. I didn’t know how that was possible and how I had never noticed it until now.

As I tried to read the unknown number, I perceived Hazel’s scent before I heard footsteps. Within a second, Hazel opened the door and entered t

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~They were gone… I stood in front of the apartment they once occupied until I couldn’t see the cars anymore… not even the trail of dust the car tires evoked as they zoomed off.My mate and my kids were gone.“It’s never too late to stop them from leaving. They are still within pack territory–” Lex began to utter words that he thought would change my mind about letting Aurelia go if that was what she wanted.But I shook my head, sadness crawling into my entire being as I countered, “No, Lex. It’s too late and this is where we say our goodbye. I can never get her back but I can still be a part of their lives.”“That’s not enough. What about the mate bond? What about the dreams you have–” Oh, the half-broken bond that I had stubbornly held on to? The dreams that can’t come true because I fucked up? I etched, “It’s time to let the bond and the dream of having my own family go.” There was no way I would give up on being an awesome father to my kids. I also won’t let Au

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~My legs grew a mind of their own as I ran towards my pack’s prison. I was beating myself up for my foolishness but I still focused on running as fast as possible. I was wrong. I was fucking wrong and Andrew did tell me but my head was so up my ass that I didn’t care to listen. My emotions spiraled and now I had made a huge mistake. I broke the one man who would do anything to stand with me and make sure my back was protected. How could I have assumed Andrew would stab me in the back? “The thought of it hurt you and you were blinded by that feeling and the feeling of loss.” Lex whimpered within me, reminding me about the emptiness I felt within. All these years, I thought I was empty without Aurelia and a complete bond but I was just beginning to understand the real meaning of the word empty. I pushed my pain out of my mind as Alpha Clinton’s words echoed in my head, forcing me to run faster. “I called your Beta yesterday because I got some news and I didn’t wan

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   108. The Other Side

    AURELIA~~I felt it… The second Raiden accepted my long-standing rejection, I felt it in my bones. Mostly, I felt relieved that it was finally over with him but still, a tiny part of me grieved what could have been… what the both of us could have been, what our life would have been like with our kids if we didn’t start on the wrong track.I found myself thinking about the unknown future that stood before us all and I felt fear sinking into my bones as I wondered if I’d ever be happy.But that wasn’t all I felt. I felt suspicious as well. It’s been almost an hour since we left Raiden’s territory and even though we still had a long journey before us, something seemed off. Not only was the car in front speeding off like it wanted to get to Black Fur before the rest. Could Hazel be so excited that she told the driver to go faster than usual? I wouldn’t put it past her but I wished I could tell her to think about safety first.Aside from that, the driver of our car seemed to be stru

    AURELIA~~I screamed in hopes that I would be able to get the other driver to use the dam brakes if they were still working.But my scream was cut short when the third car hit ours with a loud bang that had the car spinning so fast. Before I could jump out of the way, I saw my driver’s head hit the steering wheel and window as the car tumbled, His blood tinted the windscreen and my heart cried for him but I still had to jump to protect my kids.I jumped, making the mistake of backing the edge of the hill but that wasn’t the end. I mean, right there and then, the third car did a quick reverse and I almost let out a sigh of relief, thinking the car’s driver was finally back to his scenes.However, he drove straight and fast into our car again. I couldn’t escape the quick impact as the car tumbled again, slamming into me. The impact knocked air out of my lungs but somehow, my hold on my babies was stronger than ever. “Mom…” “Mama…” The twins screamed simultaneously. I didn’t reali

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~I COULDN’T SAVE THEM!I tried. I ran. I caught up with them but not in time to save my family… Unfortunately, I was in time to witness the earthshattering explosion and that took my heart out. I lost all senses as my eyes reflected the tall flame and my brain registered the fact that I was too late… “He didn’t plan to kill them here. They’ve to be here somewhere.” Lex cried, agony taking over us both as I scanned the area through my wolf’s eyes in search of Aurelia and the kids. If only I could sense them. If only I feel some sort of connection to them…. I had no links with the kids and the only link I had with Aurelia had been severed about an hour ago. Despite being in my wolf’s form, I still couldn’t get a whiff of them… not even with the smoke that had filled the air.Fuck! Not knowing what could have happened to them or where they could be was killing me. However, Jake didn’t seem to share in my worries. In fact, he didn’t even notice that I was standing beh

    ALPHA TRISTAN'S POV~~I got the news of Larisa’s plan from my men a few days ago and I have been trying to reach someone… anyone from Dark Moon Pack so I could warn them but no one answered their damn phone. Not Hazel!Not Aurelia herself!Not even her dumb ex-mate who was a goddamn Alpha! I also haven’t heard from any of them in days.Heck! I wanted to believe they were still in Dark Moon Pack but I’d be a fool to think that, especially after I got the news that Hazel was found unconscious in the middle of the road with a coffin and there was no sign of Aurelia and the twins. “I still don’t understand why we are still here instead of going out there to search for them,” Dolf grumbled impatiently even though the men I sent out were on their way back to the pack with Hazel and Jessica’s body. “Sending men out isn’t enough–” “You do know I have an advantage, right? It’s clear that Larisa’s plan already went through and her people have Aurelia and the kids.” I retorted, hoping to

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   112. Larisa's POV (10)

    LARISA’S POV ~~In all my years of relating with Raiden, first as his lover and then as his Luna, I have never been disrespected by him. After living with him for over six years, I can boldly say he was nothing like the savage that Tristan was. That son of a shit slapped me like he was trying to break my face. I didn’t see those jaw-crushing slaps coming even though I had realized that the people who took me were not Raiden’s men before Alpha Tristan removed the blindfold. Raiden men would have still treated me like I was human but these ones didn’t give a fuck about me. I presumed the only reason they didn’t kill me on sight was because Tristan wanted to have the honor to himself.My heart was racing like the continuity of my life depended on how fast it could beat as I thought about what my life had become overnight. I, Larisa Wellington, Dark Moon’s precious Princess who later became their most wanted Luna candidate was now a prisoner to someone who seemed to only care about A

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~I stared at the cell phone for the longest time, shaking visibly yet doing my best to contain the rage rushing through my veins, poisoning my mind and contaminating my broken soul yet keeping me alive. That rage was the only thing that had kept me breathing for the past few days and letting it out on Jake who I had tied to a pole in the pack square, was one way to keep myself sane.Mostly, I was mad at Larisa and Jake. However, I was mad at myself as well. Do I always have to be a failure? Why can’t I do one thing right? I had commanded my men to stretch out and search the area where the accident happened. I had been searching with them but there was no sign of Aurelia and the kids. We found no sign of life, except for a few of their belongings scattered around the explosion spot.This brings me to the struggle that I have been dealing with… The struggle of accepting that they were gone–“They can’t be gone.” Lex countered with a ferocious whimper.

    DAVIEN~~This was very weird. I’m not one to step forward in a crowded hall and offer to help a Princess in pain. That could have been Damian, my twin brother, but not me, and everyone who knew me because they were close to the family or part of my family could testify to this. But here I was, holding the ‘Princess Katie’… the very one. She was known for many things.Her strength. Her confidence. Her beauty. Her sharp tongue. Her hot temper. But most importantly, her lack of wolf. Everyone in the realm knew that, and she had been labeled the only noble wolf without a wolf. However, that wasn’t entirely true–“How is his temperature on your body, Sweetie?” Alpha King Raiden asked his daughter, who had buried her face in my belly while I was lost in thought. The Princess opened her eyes, blowing me away with the stormy blue eyes that she was known for. I could see the wide sea in her eyes and the wide sky as well. However, I could also tell that she wasn’t stable at the moment.

    Princess Katie Anne~~I was burning up from within and all I could do was scream. Soon enough, my parents were beside me and as I teared up, I saw Cole’s parent with him as well. My Dad gathered me in his arms, rocking me like he used to do when I was seven. “You will be alright, Sweetie. We are here.” He whispered into my ears, sitting on the bare floor of the grand hall even though he was the King… Yes, I was his daughter so I was more important to him.“What’s happening to her Ma?” Kyle cried out. “This can’t be because of the rejection. She doesn’t even have a wolf.” I could feel my brother’s worry through the twins’ bond and the urge to reach out to him and assure him that I was fine was strong, but not as strong as the force splitting me into two equal halves. How do I know it was equal halves? I could tell.. Somehow. I screamed again… and again… and again.I nearly missed my mom’s statement as pain dulled my mind, but thankfully, I didn’t, “It’s happening, Tamia. Lori

    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, ba

    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
