Chasing His Betrayed Luna 129. As a Family
AURELIA~~Katie and Kyle were beginning to get used to the uniqueness of this pack. They weren’t exactly surprised when Raiden’s eyes closed and his body went limp together with Susanna’s. My heart was racing as a result of curiosity but it was more of uncertainty. To my surprise, Katie held on to Raiden’s free hand, caressing it with gentility. Clearly, she was no longer mad at her Dad but it was quite the opposite for Kyle who wouldn’t leave my side. “Can we let him stay, Mom?” Katie asked a question I knew she would throw at me. However, before I could answer, Kyle grumbled with a pout of his own, “We agreed not to forgive anyone that hurt Mama, Katie. Why are you breaking our promise?” “Because Mom taught us to forgive and Dad is sorry, Kyle. Can’t you feel it?” Katie muttered with conviction which made me look at Mia Lu with questions in my eyes. Since when did Katie start feeling Raiden's emotions? That’s highly impossible unless holding Raiden's hand while he was holdin
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 130. Alpha Tristan's POV (9)
ALPHA TRISTAN’S POV ~~Anger was the only emotion I had been feeling for the entire week. It was zapping through me and eating me up, leaving no space for any other feeling or thought. I felt disgusted and couldn’t look at myself in the mirror–“But you still enjoyed the sex.” Dolf scoffed. My wolf had become the biggest opponent I had to deal with but the feeling of betrayal was bigger than the tension between my wolf and me.“Oh, you feel betrayed?” Dolf chuckled with mockery. “I wonder what Aurelia would be feeling–” “She is dead, Dolf! She died. She can’t feel nothing.” I snapped at my wolf. As if it wasn’t bad enough that I have been a mess since I woke up in my bedroom with a smile on my face and with the assumption that I had just made love to Aurelia, only to open my eyes and find Larisa snoring softly and peacefully in my bed… In my fucking arms. As if it wasn’t bad enough that I actually enjoyed the sex with her… In my defense, I thought she was Aurelia. Throughout
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 131. Alpha Tristan's POV (10)
ALPHA TRISTAN’S POV ~~“Release him and clean him up,” I commanded the guards at the gate as I walked out of my pack’s holding ground. With no question asked, the guards nodded and they jumped into action.Before I went into the cell and heard Louis out, the plan was to have him killed in any way he chose but fortunately for him, he presented his case well. Perhaps I should have listened to him a week ago and saved us all the pain and drama. And fortunately for him, his decision to stay alive rather than choose death sounded great to me. Yes, I could have had him killed regardless. I didn’t need him. I could get another Beta within a twinkle of an eye but to be honest, I didn’t want someone else. Louis would be punished but he’d live on as my Beta and together we would revive the dead dreams of our parents.With the newfound determination, I returned to my home where I hadn’t been in a week all because I wanted to avoid Larisa who had been locked and kept in her room. My home w
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 132. A Dreadful Future
ALPHA RAIDEN~~Taking a trip down memory lane with a mysterious white wolf had opened my eyes to many things but nothing compared to the kind of peace, love, and harmony radiating within this pack. I was sitting in front of my hut like I have been doing every evening since I was able to leave the bed and I could feel the genuine joy once again. This pack was smaller compared to mine but it felt bigger than mine because everyone here has a big heart. Of course, they have been wary of me and I wouldn’t blame them. They never cease to offer me a smile or invite me to any gathering even though I was an outsider in their pack. Jeremy was still an ass though. I guess there would always be a Jeremy regardless of how pure a pack is. “There she is.” Lex chimed happily into my mind as he sighted Aurelia through my eyes. He had been looking around for her while I looked at the little kids as they played around. While Katie and Kyle got bullied in my pack and mostly had to hang with Hazel
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 133. To My Heart
AURELIA~~“Much better. You are almost as good as new.” Mia Lu applauded. I gasped, panting due to shortness of breath, “Really?” “Hmm hmm…” Mia Lu confirmed to me. “Your heart is almost healed and you are almost ready to use your spiritual energy.” The excitement I felt initially kinda died as the word almost became less satisfying. Almost wasn't enough anymore. I wanted to be able to do things like everyone else. I wanted to start training fully but as it is, I’ve to focus on opening myself to the spiritual energy Tristan was hell bent on blocking for his own benefit. “What do I do to be ready? Why is my heart healing as slow as a snail and can’t I practice healing tricks or seer's abilities with the current level of my spiritual force?” I asked Mia Lu. “I suppose you can but you will be drained before you can master even the simplest tricks and we are not sure if you are a seer or a spiritual guardian like me.” Mia Lu stated as she replied. “The spiritual shield your wolf c
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 134. To Love Again
AURELIA~~Raiden led me to a more private area of the pack in silence. I tried to ignore the bile in my throat as Mia Lu’s words echoed in my mind. Mia Lu had made me realize that Raiden wasn’t the only one at fault. I was too.Yes, he hurt me– physically, mentally and emotionally.Yes, he failed me as my mate. Yes, he was wrong in many ways. However, for how long would I hold on to the past? How long would I deprive myself of true happiness? I don’t have to fall in love with him but I could at least stop holding on to hate. I could give him a chance to prove himself to me and most especially the kids. Doing that could also help me acquire massive spiritual energy–“Please have a seat.” Raiden’s gentle tone called me out of my thoughts. Our eyes met before mine fell to the fallen log of a tree he asked me to sit on. I sat and he did too, putting space between us. “I’m sorry for making you feel uncomfortable by asking you–” Raiden began with a sigh.I cut in, gazing at the tre
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 135. My Bigger Girl
ALPHA RAIDEN~~“Someone looks happy and radiant this morning.” Otis crackled as I stepped onto the small training field the pack had. The big smile on my face grew even bigger as I shook his hand, paying zero attention to Jeremy who simply grumbled at my presence. “You are talking about you, right?” I feign ignorance and it is chuckled, shaking his head. “Stop fooling around. I'm certain your—” Otis began to counter.However, Jeremy snickered without an iota of niceness, “Yes, stop fooling around. We have to train. We have to be ready.” My brows furrowed, “Ready for what?”Otis and Jereney exchanged looks and I figured Otis lied to me when he responded, “Ready to go hunting for the week, Alpha Raiden.”I didn't push any further, as he invited me to duel with him. But at that moment, Aurelia, the reason for the happiness I had been drowning in, sauntered to the training field with Susanna beside her and, of course, my little girl, Katie. Why wouldn't I be happier? Aurelia has
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 136. Remembrance Ceremony
AURELIA~~When I said I didn't remember the kids’ birthday until yesterday, I lied. I lied to Raiden.My heart was heavy as I left Raiden’s side, and walked back to Susanna who had become my training partner in place of Jessica. Of course, she couldn’t replace Jessica because she was physically weaker in comparison and because there would only be one Jessica. “You could have told him. He could sense the lie and your sadness–” Inara began just as I reached Susanna’s side and she looped our hands together. “How could I? I doubt he recalls anything about Dakota. Phoebe is the only living person who would know and sadly, we aren’t in the same pack and won’t be able to hold a proper ceremony for Dakota together.” I interjected my wolf.Dakota’s remembrance ritual should be held on the same day my kids turn six but I couldn’t do it alone and I wasn’t sure it was advisable to hold a death remembrance ceremony on the same day as the twins' birth remembrance. I could be jinxing the live

Chasing His Betrayed Luna 247. Rhythm of Pleasure.
ALPHA RAIDEN~~The number of times I had blinked since I woke up beside Aurelia was countless and even as I exited the bathroom in a robe, I still kept blinking just so I could be sure that this wasn’t another sick game. That this scene where Aurelia was guiding my weak steps and my kids were jumping in our bedroom wasn’t some sick game that my mind was playing again just to torture me like it has been doing since the very day I felt Aurelia’s energy zapping through my dead veins and mending my crushed heart… bring me back to life. I was conscious of that moment and everyone that came after. I was conscious but I couldn’t open my eyes. I did lose track of time but it felt like I had been trapped for eternity and not eighty days. Also, I couldn’t feel much or hear much. Not even Aurelia even though she must have been spending time with me. That scared me so much that I stopped fighting my own mind and my consciousness was shoved into the darkest pit that existed there. I coul
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 246. Intimate Night
AURELIA~~Due to the fear in my heart, I couldn’t sleep deeply but when I did it didn’t last up to an hour. I jolted into a sitting position and as soon as I realized that it was morning, I turned around to wake Raiden up. I thought to myself, “He has had enough sleep.”However, Raiden wasn’t in bed when I turned to wake him up. I can boldly say that today was the first time I smiled despite waking up to an empty bed. This is the first time I was happy that Raiden left me in bed after what I would define as an intimate night. Because his absence told me that truly, he was awake. Unless I was still dreaming–“It’s not a dream, Baby. I’m awake.” Raiden’s voice sent sparks through my body as it bounced off my mind, assuring me that this moment and every feeling that came with it, was very real.I got off the bed and threw on the first flimsy gown that I saw as I asked him, “Where are you?” Gosh, I couldn’t wait to see our babies' reaction when they see their daddy, and neither co
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 245. Favorite Meal
AURELIA~~A loud cry escaped my lips as my body and mind woke up. Or so I thought. I recalled crying to bed and I understood why that happened but nothing prepared me for the kind of cry that slipped past my lips as my eyes fluttered open, taking in the darkness in the room. It wasn’t morning yet. My body stiffened as I considered the possibility of this being a dream.But as soon as that thought crossed my mind, I felt the sensation that made me cry in the first place. I felt it again. In the same spot and just as prominent as the previous one. Rather than cry this time, my breath hitched and raw pleasure traveled up my spine, leaving me panting like I had been swimming laps in the longest pool in the realm. Was there even a pool–My thoughts, mind, body, soul, and spirit froze at that moment as realization hit my core, dragging me into reality as my eyes adjusted to the dark room. Inara resurfaced in my mind and uttered one word I thought I would never hear her say again… I m
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 244. Night In Bed
AURELIA~~“Why can’t we spend the night here at home, Mama?” Kyle asked with an attitude that he definitely got from his sister.“Yes, mom. Why do we have to spend the night at grandma’s? I want to stay here with you and Dad.” Katie backed up her brother. Iris who was standing behind the twins placed one hand on her heart, “Ouch. Grandma has feelings, you know?”Together, they muttered an apology to Iris who stared at them with the same love she had in her eyes the first time she saw them. Despite Raiden’s state, Iris had maintained her confident aura. Although we all knew she was struggling, she didn’t let it consume her like I once did. I gazed at my kids, thinking of a better and less 18+-rated explanation– something that doesn’t say “I’ll be having sex with your daddy tonight in hopes of waking him up so we can all live happily ever after.”I eventually settled for telling a white lie to protect my kids' innocence. I told them, “Grandma miss having you guys over for the night
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 243. Potato, Potahto
AURELIA~~Today makes it eighty days since the war and eighty days since I failed to wake Raiden up. Today also made it five days since I found a way to stop blaming myself for Raiden’s condition. I had gotten to the stage where I accepted and affirmed that I did all I could to save him and his beating heart was evidence. Heck, I gave him more than half of my own soul and didn’t recover for weeks after the war. Heck, he was the one choosing not to wake up and I was so over blaming myself. “Say something, Lori,” Iris stated, urging Lori who had come into the house to examine Raiden after I cleaned his body and dressed him up.I had given the responsibility of examining Raiden to Lori. After all, at some point, I thought he wasn’t waking up because I was doing something wrong. Lori sighed, her gaze shifting from me to Iris and then to the other people in the room– Andrew, Susanna, Tamia, Seth, Otis, Benji, Jeremy, and Pheobe. She looked at every one of us before she chimed, “This
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 242. My Broken Heart
AURELIA~~“I thought we would take it all out on him?” Inara etched into my mind as I slowly made my way home after seeing Tristan. She was referring to the anger still very much alive within me. “You have so much left. I suggest we visit the witch tonight–” I stunned myself and Inara when I said, “I think I’d rather stay at home with my family tonight.” Usually, or more accurately, most nights, I visit Larisa’s cell and our at my anger on her. But I didn’t have the will to hear her cry tonight, not that she has suddenly become less deserving of torture but my kids deserve to see me before going to bed tonight. They deserve their mama.“They do, don’t they?” Inara affirmed sadly. I knew my wolf was worried I would break down when I saw Raiden just lying in bed again but I was determined to be with Katie and Kyle even if that meant I had to stare at Raiden– evidence of my failure. A part of my consciousness pumped these words into my mind, “Doesn’t Raiden deserve to feel your p
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 241. Alpha Tristan's POV (14)
ALPHA TRISTAN~~“You should take your leave.” The he-wolf who smelled like a strong gamma seethed at me. “She doesn’t want to see you.”Although I had been standing by the border of Dark Moon Pack for hours, I intended to remain there until I got to see Aurelia. “C’mon, Gamma Seth. You know we mean no harm.” Louis, who had officially resumed his duties as my Beta after I was reinstalled as Alpha, said to the strong Gamma. “This is a peaceful visit.”I simply listened as my Beta negotiated with the Gamma, feeling more like Louis was the Alpha. I would be lying if I said I haven’t felt useless these past few days. After regaining consciousness, I found out that Louis had become more influential, not only in my pack. Obviously. “Your ego is bruised?” Dolf mocked me. But his assumptions weren’t exactly the case. I just couldn’t wait to get back my strength and become myself again. “This isn’t about your intention, Beta Louis. It’s about my Alpha and Luna's wishes.” The Gamma answere
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 240. Living Dead
AURELIA~~Perhaps it was anger or hate, I couldn’t tell. Or maybe it was both. I was angry that Tristan was back to his feet even though I permitted Lori to send some Mender to Black Fur Pack to help him after Beta Louis took the oath, signed the peace treaty, and pleaded for help. I was so angry that my mate had to fall and Tristan got to rise again even though he didn’t deserve it.And for the hate, it was simple– I hated Tristan.Although my hate for Larisa was greater, Tristan wasn’t far from being another Larisa to me–“Talking about that bitch. She has had enough peace, don’t you think? It’s time we pay her another visit.” Inara snarled into my mind, fueling the hatred in my heart. My wolf had taken a hobby in tearing Larisa apart since she had become our prisoner– one that I wasn’t ready to kill just yet. Each time we pay her a visit in her cell, we torture her until death flashes before her eyes, leave her to healers to heal her, and return to start the process all over
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 239. Hell. Fucking. No!
AURELIA~~Life was different now. Before the war, I simply trained to get better and increase our chances of winning, but now, I am the leader of two packs and have more duties than I could have imagined. Life was different but one thing remained constant– my life was difficult.“Are you with me, Luna?” Andrew’s voice called me out of my self-pitying thoughts. I blinked rapidly, composing myself despite my desire to just go home, be with my kids, and–“Do you want to take the day off? I can handle the pack affairs while you recuperate.” Andrew offered and Seth who was sitting on the chair beside him nodded in agreement.But to be honest, I have rested enough. It’s been two months after the war and while a lot still needed to be fixed, the pack was recovering better than I thought it would, thanks to the help I have gotten from both sides– White Shade and Dark Moon.Andrew and Seth have been helping with Dark Moon’s affair and the elders of the White Wolves have been very helpful
