AURELIA

~<>~

I would have argued confidently if anyone had told me I would be relieved to step into Dark Moon Pack after I vouch never to return and this is not just because the pack is better.

It’s the atmosphere… it’s so much better and something about the change made me feel at ease.

We have been here for two days and the white wolves are settling into their apartment building. For some of the younger ones who were born and raised in the hidden pack, having to live in a proper building with proper toilets and other necessary amenities seemed surreal but they have been adapting.

The twins and I have spent most of our time in the white wolves building, helping them settle. Iris was also devoted to that mission and a few of the members of Dark Moon Pack have visited the building to welcome the white wolves to their pack.

“It’s been going well if you ask me.” Inara chimed into my head as I listened to Mia Lu and Lori talk about how they needed to turn the nearest lake into the new

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~I knew she would be mad at me. I haven’t been communicating with her since we arrived and even though I noticed that she wasn’t in the mansion when I got home this morning for the first time since we arrived in the pack, I couldn’t approach her in the morning. There was something urgent that needed my attention. Being away from the pack for over a month was a good vacation but it did come with consequences that I had to deal with and that hasn’t been easy as I had to interrogate Jake in hopes of getting information from him. Anything that could help us prepare for the war.I haven’t slept in two days neither have I been around anyone other than Andrew, a few elders of my pack, and a very weak Jake. Andrew definitely knew how to make him suffer without killing him–“Why would you want to move in with us?” Aurelia asked softly, looking at the ground to hide her red cheeks from me. I shoved thoughts of the war and my piled-up assignment to the back of my mind and s

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~The next morning came with a feeling that I had never experienced before. I woke up with a big smile on my face and the smile became bigger when I opened my eyes and saw my kids, sleeping soundly on my chest. I didn’t know how I got to be in their middle but Katie was on one side and Kyle on the other. Their little fingers were on my heart and never have I felt so blessed. Aurelia wasn’t in the room when I woke up and my first instinct was to leave the bed and look for her but I allowed myself to enjoy the moment with my kids. I held them longer before leaving the room to find Aurelia by following her strong scent. Aurelia smells like a lot of things at the same time. She smelled like love. Like fresh flowers. Like a bowl of vanilla. Like home. Her scent had always had effects on me but now that I was no longer under the spell of you know who, I was beginning to appreciate everything about Aurelia more and her scent had become stronger since she started training

    AURELIA~~We met with Iris in the pack’s general dining hall where the pack usually comes together to dine on special occasions such as the arrival of other packs to participate in the games; the reason I returned to the pack in the first place. I thought I was stupid for coming here with my kids after a series of events. I thought I was better off staying in Black Fur but now I knew better. The moon goddess has a twisted way of making me suffer only to make me tougher and happier. I was happier now that I knew better, now that I knew who Tristan really was, and why my journey through life had to happen the way it did. I probably wouldn’t have tapped into my abilities If Larisa hadn’t bewitched my man and made me leave. I most likely wouldn’t have known why Raiden turned out to be a nightmare of a mate if I hadn’t returned to Dark Moon. Also, I wouldn’t be enlightened spiritually if my crazy journey didn’t lead me to the white wolves even though Larisa thought she had eliminate

    AURELIA~~The party started well and even though I was tired from planning all day, I was happy to be there. Organizing a party is just as stressful as training either physically or spiritually and for someone new to the task, I did well.Although I intended to learn from Iris not because I was certain Raiden and I would get to the level where I would have to take over and become his Luna fully but because I was willing to try and put all the effort into what Raiden and I were building.When the party started, the white wolves arrived together and they all chose to occupy the empty seats on the right side of the hall, leaving members of the Dark Moon Pack to sit on the other side. But after an hour of fun group games, the two parts were beginning to mix and relate. Raiden was sitting with me. Otis and Susanna were also at the same table with us. Andrew wasn’t here yet as he had to run an errand for Raiden and I had noticed the respectful manner Raiden’s pack members were treating m

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~Now this was unexpected.The tension between Otis and Andrew was thick enough to resist the sharpness of a sword. It was a miracle that the people were still having fun and relating well or maybe it was all thanks to the delicious meals that the servants served everyone. Aurelia’s magic, if I must say. “There’s no hope for these two. I thought they would be best of friends after the way they related with each other on the two occasions they met.” Lex said to me, keenly looking at Otis and Andrew through my eyes. Andrew and Otis really hit it off and I was scared they would one day gang up on me to pull my legs but now, with Susanna in the picture, that was no longer a possibility. Despite Aurelia’s absence, the party ended well. Aurelia didn’t return to the hall so I had to take the closing address alone before everyone returned to the homes. Otis tried to join the white wolves as they moved towards the exit. “Not you, Otis. we’ve to talk.” I said to him. Jerem

    AURELIA ~~ Susanna and I didn't make it to the bedroom after we left the party last night. Although Katie and Kyle didn't make it home at all. They followed Iris, spending the night with her in the white wolves’ building. I woke up that morning and wasn't surprised to see Susanna sleeping soundly on the second couch in the living room. I had spent the night on the biggest couch. Of course, neither of us had enough sleep since we were up most of the night, discussing Susanna’s situation. I could feel her dilemma in my bones like I was in her shoes. However, regardless of how short our night was, the second I woke up and realized it was morning, I moved over to Susanna, tapping her arm lightly. “Wake up, Suzy,” I called her softly. She grumbled, trying to shake me off, “I don't want to.” “Training starts soon, Suzy. We have to train.” I argued even though I wanted nothing more than to fall into bed. Susanna whined without opening her eyes, “I don't want to leave th

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~ I haven’t visited the apartment building the white wolves have been occupying since their arrival four days ago. I thought today would be a good day to visit them because Aurelia was going as well.“You are obsessed.” Lex mocked me.I corrected him with a smile on my face, “We are obsessed.”On a more serious note, I needed to be with the white wolves for the creation of the new purifying lake and also know why none of them showed up for physical training like we initially agreed before leaving the hidden pack. The smile on my face fell when we entered the general living room in what I would like to call the white wolves’ pack house and we found almost every one of them gathered to form a circle around someone who I not Aurelia could see from where we were standing. “What’s going on?” Aurelia asked with concern as she struggled to push past the people. No one seemed to notice Aurelia, hear her question, or acknowledge her struggles as they murmured, focused on w

    AURELIA ~~ Mia Lu was down. Before I left the white wolves’ building I got to see Lori dress Mia Lu up in the same flowing green dress that I saw in my vision and she was carried into her room which was decorated just like I saw in my vision. Nothing changed. The future I saw was already happening and nothing, not even a single detail, changed. That terrified me and even as I left the building after leaving my kids with Iris who said she would be staying there for a few days, I felt my heart racing as eight words kept flashing through my mind “The future is here and it’s not changing.” Those words reminded me of my goal. The need to change the future and now that Mia Lu was down, I wouldn’t know how soon the war I saw in my visions would break out. It could be tomorrow or the next week– Raien could die soon. Oh goddess, no! “What are we doing, Relia? We have to have a solid plan. We can’t keep going with the flow.” Inara was also panicking within me. We were both lost

    Princess Katie Anne~~What has happened to us—the Seer King Flockhart family?Yes, we had troubles in the past, but none of those troubles had created this kind of mess because we always found our way back to each other.But right now, as my mom stared back at Kyle, whose privacy she had breached, I could tell that we might never find our way back to each other. Kyle was shaking with anger, and my mom, who had also realized that she had made the wrong move and broken Kyle’s trust, was frozen on the spot.I, on the other hand, didn’t know what emotion to settle on—anger, pain, worry, or the one that was eating me away but that I still couldn’t name.Although I didn’t take my eyes off Kyle, I could feel my dad’s confusion as he stood there, torn between his son and his mate.“Why would you read my memories, Ma?” Kyle hissed, his voice low and disrespectful.My mom put on a bold face and replied, “You left me no choice, Kyle. I had to know what we were dealing with—”“You didn’t have

    Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV ~~“Kyle found his mate?”That question was expected, so I wasn’t surprised when my mom blurted it out with shock and curiosity. What I didn’t expect, walking into the living room, was to hear Katie telling our parents what I had told her in confidence.Katie went still and pale as realization flashed through her eyes. She stuttered into my mind, “You haven’t told them?”I failed to contain my rage as I retorted, “Of course, I haven’t! Why would you even think that I told them?”“I suspected you wouldn’t tell them without informing me, but I was cornered. I was under the impression that you told them last night. They made me believe—”Before Katie could finish speaking through our twin bond, my dad voiced, cutting her off, “Is that why you decided to leave the pack and study in the human realm? What went wrong?”“You can talk to us, Kyle. Are you going to the human realm because she is too young and you couldn’t make it work, or do you plan to go with her?”

    Princess Katie Anne~~Walking around the pack didn’t help me clear my head; neither did it help me stop thinking about Davien. I desperately yearned to be with him, to apologize to him not just because I was in his mind but because of the hell he had to grow up in.“I feel so sad,” Zuri eventually broke the silent bubble she had popped around herself.Zoe, who had been pointing out how she was wrong since Davien ran out of the purifying hut, added, “Me too. I have been mean to him, and all of this happened because of me. I was pushy and unreasonable.”“You sure were, Zoe, but you had to. I believe this happened for a reason,” Zuri said to Zoe, comforting her even though that was the last thing I expected from her.Clearly, what happened with Davien had bridged the gap between my wolves and me, and I could only hope that this bridge wouldn’t collapse anytime soon. I mean, both Zuri and Zoe can be very unpredictable.“Still, I'm sorry,” Zoe apologized to Zuri and me.Her sincerity br

    Princess Katie Anne~~“Davien!” I called out as he ran out of the purifying hut with undiluted terror in his eyes. “Please wait, Davien.”I pushed myself out of the lake, ready to run after the man whose mind I had seen and now knew like the back of my own hands. I didn’t just have a small peek. I was in Davien’s mind long enough to have a glimpse of every memory he had stored.I still didn’t know how I did it, but I knew I saw him laugh a few times, and when I went deeper, I saw the real him. The young boy whose family failed him in all ways. I saw the real him, and my heart ached for him.My heart nearly ripped itself out of my chest when he screamed in the memory realm. Seeing him shake even in that space made me realize the kind of damage that had been done to his mind and soul.Fuck!Why was I in his mind?Before I could make it out of the lake, fatigue hit me like an enemy who was hell-bent on stopping me from going after my mate. Auntie Susanna caught me before I could lose

    DAVIEN~~At first, I thought nothing was happening because, despite how much the white wolves Gamma, Susanna, and a famous mind reader tried to instruct Katie, I felt nothing.Katie felt nothing as well.Until it happened.An electrifying sensation crackled between Katie and me, and before I knew it, my mind transitioned into a space that was completely out of the ordinary.It felt strange. I was both confused and curious, looking around for answers that seemed to be slipping out of my grasp. In fact, nothing felt familiar until my voice sliced through the thick, foggy air, invading my ears.“Mom, please,” I cried.I cried, but at the same time, the cry wasn't mine. I mean, I don't sound like that anymore. Over the years, my voice had thickened, but the voice that I heard at that point was soft.Soft yet recognizable because it was the younger version of me.“Please let me attend the party with you and Damien. I won't try to make friends. I won't disgrace you and Dad,” my younger se

    Princess Katie Anne~~"Open your damn eyes, Katie Anne." Zoe’s vicious voice snapped through my mind in a way that made me groan even though I was trying to pretend to be asleep.Even though I have been awake for the past ten minutes.I just didn't want to open my eyes—“That's because you can feel our mate waiting for you, Katie. He even went downstairs to get breakfast for you,” Zuri muttered so softly.She was such a lover girl, the opposite of Zoe, of course.“Whatever. Just get your ass up and get it to the purifying, but where we have to be to channel enough to go into Dolf’s memory,” Zoe chimed emotionlessly.Although she didn't say it, I knew she believed that Davien went to get breakfast for me because he was hoping I would change my mind about taking the trip down memory lane with him. She didn't have to say it. I have come to know that she would read meaning into every action, including the meaningless and harmless.“You should get up, Katie. I agree with Zoe on this one,

    ALPHA PRINCE KYLE~~As soon as dinner ended that day, my Ma and Pa chose to walk me to my bedroom even though they had a nighttime ritual they performed with Elora, Ronald, and Kennedy. My younger siblings weren't pleased they wouldn't have the attention tonight, but I wasn't delighted to be getting it either. I wanted to be left alone, but in this house, it seemed like I was asking for too much. “You can leave now, Ma, and you too, Pa,” I said to my parents as soon as I got to the front of my bedroom door. The walk from the dining hall was silent, and I knew they had many questions to ask me, but I wasn't in the mood to entertain them tonight. “You know I am not leaving, young man.” My Ma chimed, countering and walking past me to enter my bedroom.I looked towards my Pa for help, but he raised his hand and shrugged, saying, “I can't leave now, can I?” With that said, he also stepped into my room. I began to panic because I knew my Ma would make me break down before her in a

    DAVIEN~~After Katie decided to read Dolf’s memory the next day because she was tired and also had to join the family for dinner, I also decided to tell her about my father’s text tomorrow. It would be if she could read my memories too and find out that I wasn’t involved in whatever conspiracy my family was cooking.I would do that tomorrow. I promised myself, walking side by side with Katie into the dining hall, where I was welcomed with warmth and smiles.Elora asked me to sit by her side, and to my surprise, Ronald and Kennedy began to talk about having a date with me, individually and also together.It was a wholesome time until Luna Queen Aurelia exhaled, her eyes on Katie, who seemed to be focusing on her meal. “Your brother isn’t here again tonight, Katie. What is it you aren't telling us?”Katie tensed for a minute before she looked back at her mom and stated, “You worry too much, Mom. Kyle is fine, and I already told you I have nothing to share with you. You can ask Kyle y

    Princess Katie Anne~~“Go down memory lane with me, Katie, and if you can, let’s peek at the future while at it.”Dolf’s voice echoed in my mind, instantly resulting in a drop of my jaw, as I didn’t expect this conversation to lead us here. I thought he would be hurt, and Davien too. I knew I would be hurt if he were to tell me that he didn’t trust me, even though I had done nothing to earn his distrust.Hurt and anger were what I expected, but Davien was staring at me with those warm honey-brown eyes, and Dolf's voice was soothing in my mind.Dolf’s offer was tempting, but I wasn’t sure I wanted to do that.“And why on earth would you not?” Zoe’s voice resonated in my mind, leaving Dolf out of the conversation even though his consciousness was stirring within my mind as well.Before I could respond, Zuri chimed in, “Because if he is offering to do that, then he has nothing to hide, Zoe. We can’t keep hurting them just because of what someone in the past did to us. It’s not fair to
