ALPHA RAIDEN

~<>~

“You are fucking crazy, Jeremy.”

How I wished those words were mine but Otis beat me to calling Jeremy what he is– A crazy but highly observant man. He must have been observing everyone in this pack to ensure the survival of his kind all these years for him to have noticed that Otis and I were gone.

“Susanna wouldn’t have made it easy for him to notice but he did regardless.” Even my wolf agreed with me.

Susanna chimed with relief, “Oh, look. There they are. You were just being loud for nothing.”

Jeremy’s face twisted into a frown and I knew he couldn’t believe his eyes. Truth was, we would have executed the plan and made Jeremy look like a foolish and crazy man who was obsessed with me if my mom wasn’t standing behind me.

Yes, she followed Otis and me here because she didn’t want to miss the twins’ birthday and she was also excited about seeing Mia Lu again. Apparently, they used to know each other.

“Well, you are not completely crazy, Jeremy. You were partially

    AURELIA~~“Happy Birthday!”This is the ritual. It has been for the past six years. I gather people the twins are familiar with and wait outside my bedroom door, In Tristan’s pack it was a mini apartment but here in the hidden pack, it was a wooden hut. Yet the ritual remains the same. We waited for Katie and Kyle to come out of the hut together, as I knew they would, and blurted those two words with bright smiles, warm hearts, and all the energy we could summon. However, unlike their previous birthdays, I wasn’t alone at the front of the familiar crowd. Raiden was with me and we stood side by side with outstretched arms. Katie ran into my arms and Kyle went to Raiden their faces reflecting their joy. Also, Iris who had tears in her eyes, stood behind me, her voice being the loudest as we collectively sang for Katie and Kyle. Iris could have passed for the happiest person today if Katie wasn’t squealing… Loudly.“It’s our birthday?” Kyle couldn’t believe it as he grinned from ea

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~I enjoyed every second with Katie and Kyle. I bathed them and brought out my first set of gifts which was a light blue ball gown for Katie and a nice brown two-piece for Kyle. My Mom helped me pick out these gifts and the twins loved it.“You look like a real princess, Katie,” Kyle exclaimed, placing his small hands over his mouth as he stared at his sister who was teaching me how to style her hair the way she likes it.Katie pouted, “I want to be a strong warrior instead but I can be a princess for today.” I quickly chirped in for clarity's sake, “Who says you can’t be both, darling? You can be the strongest Warrior Princess in the realm. It’s okay to love dresses even as a warrior, baby.”Katie’s eyes twinkled, “Really? I thought warriors couldn’t be princesses. Tristan used to–” “Princesses can be warriors and you are my princess, baby.” I cut in before she could say any other word about Tristan. He shouldn’t be brought up today. Not on my watch.“Alpha Princess

    AURELIA~~Gosh, I tried. I tried not to lose it on my kids’ big day but I couldn’t help it not when Raiden didn’t understand what he was doing and those he understood, he chose to manipulate me in those areas.“But she has been wanting one and I’ll provide a personal trainer who will help her train and keep her safe at all times.” Raiden defended himself. But that wasn’t enough. To be honest, the sword he planned to give Katie wasn’t the main problem, and gifting Kyle a personal library was thoughtful but how could he try to manipulate me while at it? That was what pissed me off. “I understand that you wanted to make the day special and I’m grateful that you are here with us–” “You don’t seem like it, Aurelia. I have to tiptoe around you all the time because I know you will explode in my face just like you are doing now even though all I did was present gifts to our kids on our behalf–” “You are manipulating me, Raiden!” I snapped as he was already pointing fingers at me.

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~The white wolves still feasted on the resources I brought from my pack for the next five days. The hunters were relieved and everyone could relax. Everyone but Aurelia and I, of course. The mother of my kids has been doing what she knew how to do best– Pretend like I wasn’t in her life. Aurelia has been avoiding me and that wasn’t new but what was new was how she had gradually become paler and she seemed to be avoiding everyone aside from the twins. It was almost as if her skin color was fading along with that of her hair. How I wished she would talk to me. But at least Katie and Kyle were talking to me and my mom was making herself at home with the white wolves. She looked more alive now and I couldn’t be more grateful–Fuck that. I could be more grateful If Aurelia would just meet my eyes or talk to me and let me in. She was driving me crazy.“Perhaps you shouldn’t have asked to kiss her,” Lex grumbled, watching Aurelia through my eyes as she followed Mia Lu a

    AURELIA~~The weight of the world crashed into me. My chest rose and fell in a way that made my chest hurt. My eyes stung but soon became blurry and the solid floor shifted underneath my feet. I was tired. I was drained of spiritual and physical energy but didn't know when to stop… when to stop trying to see more than the goddess had already revealed to me.Emotionally, I was drained and It was not surprising when I felt myself falling backward. In fact, I embraced the feeling and let myself go for the first time since I unlocked my powers as a Seer. “Aurelia!” Raiden. He screamed but that didn’t stop my body from crashing into a body of water that I knew was the purifying lake not just because I had been standing closer to it but because Its perfect temperature embraced me and it felt like I was home, once again. “Hey. I’m here.” Raiden muttered to me as he gathered my body in his arms, joining me in the lake. “You are alright.” It was hard to tell if he was reassuring hims

    AURELIA~~“He’s right. Moving into Dark Moon Pack will protect everyone and we can learn to become even more powerful physically.” I voiced in support of Raiden. I knew he was stunned by the way his body tensed behind me. He didn’t expect me to back him up, not after I called him a manipulator the last time he mentioned returning to his pack.“So we are supposed to trust him with the lives of our people?” I rolled my eyes and everyone else in the hut groaned, shutting Jeremy up. Mia Lu sighed as she started speaking our minds, “For once, Jeremy can you just stop? Alpha Raiden just tried to expatiate the same point you were making and he suggested a solution but you are against him? I know your intentions are pure, child but this negativity you hold in your chest has to go.” Jeremy grumbled but he didn’t dare make a comeback. Mia Lu shook her head before looking at Raiden and me. She sighed, “We appreciate your offer, Alpha Raiden and we will have a meeting to decide if we woul

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~She was staring at me with dreamy eyes.She was looking at me like I was her favorite snack and heck was she confusing me. Why would she look at me like that as she ate and make me want to be her food or her cutlery? Why would she–“She wants you, that’s why.” Lex spewed nonsense into my mind. I cautioned him instantly, “Please don’t start with me. I’m boiling up here and I recall how she ran away the last time I asked to kiss her.” Perhaps it was all just in my head. Perhaps she was just still sleepy and what she needed was space. I should take things slow with her. She hasn’t even taken me back or agreed to ever take me back–“In my opinion, you are too slow and you should close the space between you both not widen it. You are a fucking Alpha for goddess’s sake and Alphas have needs. Don’t be a puny, Raid.” Lex practically rolled his eyes in my mind, fueling the sudden hotness that was rapidly taking over my body. At that same moment, Aurelia rolled her tongue o

    AURELIA~~Why? Why can’t I be happy? Why can’t my happiness last? Why does life have to keep kicking me in the gut, hard, like there was no one else to kick? This was becoming too much for me, and I no longer knew how to handle life. All I wanted was a kiss that would help me decide if I could choose Raiden and forget the past like it never happened. And to be honest, I almost believed we could be happy together when he touched my face and stared at me like I was the most beautiful and precious woman he had ever set his eyes on. He looked at me like he could see the moon in my eyes and smell heaven on my face… He looked at me like I owned him even though I had rejected him many times. Raiden looked at me and I loved it. I wanted everything he could offer. However, I was denied the satisfaction of taking him when I felt myself getting transported into the familiar realm– the same realm I had been trying to access so I could get a clearer glimpse of the visions– The Seer Realm

    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
