AURELIA

~<>~

When I woke up a few hours later, a part of me felt at peace but a bigger part of me beat me for falling asleep right after I picked up the mysterious journal I found within the white shade’s box.

I found myself in bed with Raiden who was fast asleep until I tried to slip out of his hold.

His hoarse voice resonated through the room as his hand tightened over my stomach, pinning me to the bed, “It's still a few hours before morning, Aurelia.”

“I need to open the journal. I didn't do that before I dozed off.” I whispered to Raiden, believing that was enough reason for him to let me go.

However, Raiden chimed, “That can wait till morning. What you need is sleep.”

“Raiden—”

“I know you wouldn't have fallen asleep if you weren't scared of what you would find in the book. You fell asleep. Use the opportunity to recharge before going back to the past.” Raiden said to me, snuggling against me.

No doubt, I was scared and Raiden was right. I fell asleep while worrying about the

    AURELIA~~To people that don't know how the white wolves operated and managed the hidden pack, I could come off as an overreacting bitch who feels entitled. But I wasn't.I knew how Mia Lu and the other elders held their history dearly. They used to hold classes for the kids just to teach them the history of the white shade pack. Mia Lu used to gather everyone on a field just to tell them stories about the white shade pack while the scribes would write these tales in journals, and keep them safe in the hut library where Kyle had spent most of his time during our stay in the hidden pack.Knowing this is why I was certain that even the kids in the pack would have seen the photograph that Kyle claimed was similar to the one I was holding and even though the kids couldn't connect the dots, the grown-ups would have known. Yet they all chose to keep it to themselves even though I asked them if they could help me find my parents. I asked the elders in particular and they all lied to my

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~From where I was standing, I could feel a million and one thoughts flashing through Aurelia’s mind and see countless emotions glinting in her blue eyes which had become darker than usual. Of course, I couldn’t understand everything because I wasn’t with them when many of these issues went down at the hidden pack.But I could understand Aurelia’s pain–“All this while?” Aurelia stuttered, tears brimming in her eyes. “ All this while she knew I was family?” Susanna could only nod as she sniffled back tears and took her eyes off a distrust Aurelia. Aurelia clearly had more questions to ask but she didn’t utter a word until I saw a twinkle of realization in her eyes. It was as if she had it figured out without questioning the white wolves. She confirmed that when she said, “The last Seer was the Luna of the pack and she was Mia Lu’s goddaughter. Luna Elora Seer King.” That name rolled off Aurelia’s tongue with pain and a slight draw. “She was Elena’s daughter. Elena

    LARISA’S POV ~~ “That’s impossible!” I yelled and the five Black Fur warriors before he trembled. Yes, they were terrified. They were scared of me. As they should be. After all, I'm their Luna. Their powerful Luna who they wouldn't want to cross. I could turn them into a quick snack with the flip of my fingers. I could end their lives because I was that powerful now. Mating with Tristan and using his life force to fuel my powers have been fulfilling. I might have entered this pack as a prisoner but now? Now I was the ruler. And this ruler is pissed. All five of them stuttered, “Apologies, Luna Larisa—” “Shut the fuck up!” I seethed, rising from the golden throne that was recently made for me and placed right beside Tristan’s throne. “I gave you simple instructions. How could you have returned empty-handed?” “We searched for the exact locations. Luna but we couldn't find the warehouses. There was nothing on the land—” “That is impossible,” I repeated. M

    AURELIA~~“I introduce to you, the new Gamma of the Dark Moon Pack,” Raiden’s voice caused the earth to vibrate as he announced to the warriors on the training field, “Gamma Seth.” Raiden raised the hand of the warrior who had just defeated many opponents to become the gamma of the pack. Seth has been involved in many duels for the past week and he won the title fair and square. The Warriors cheered, applauding their new Gamma and instantly, training began properly for that day. I chose a random warrior to train with, ignoring all the familiar faces like I have been doing since I woke up, and realized that not only have I been living in darkness, but I have also changed physically.The physical changes like the color and length of my hair, I loved, but my so-called new family, I didn’t love so much at the moment. “You can’t keep avoiding them, Relia. We’ve to face this truth.” Inara said to me as I dodged my training partner’s punch, delivering mine to her ribs. I snorted, “Watc

    Kennedy… My sweet and perfect soulmate. Becoming his Luna and mate was the best thing ever to me, until I realized that being loved by a man so pure and perfect was better. The sweet goddess knew he loved me and I know too. We are older but our love hasn't aged. It has become deeper but with time, it has become newer as well. I remember when my mom said to me, “You will find a man better than your dad, Lora.” Not in a million years did I think anyone could be better than my father… Well, I found that man a few years ago, and even my Dad agrees that Kennedy is a better man. I mean, he is the Alpha of the White Shade Pack— our home. Although I was born and raised here in the best pack to ever exist, I could never get used to or tired of the scenery. The pack is blessed with nature, resources, spiritual energy, and awesome people that make being a Luna easy and fun. Yes, I’m blessed. I, Elora Seer King, am a blessed woman who was born to an ordinary family in this pack–

    AURELIA ~~ “She loved me…” I thought as my eyes took in the last words in the first part of my mother’s journal. She loved me and she was certain my father would too. Tears laced in my eyes while her words floated around my mind, creating a sense of familiarity that I never knew I would feel as long as my parents were concerned. I held the journal to my chest, inhaling deeply as I let the words sink into me, even though I was curious to read the next part which she promised would be about my father’s joy when he finds out about my existence. Gosh! “She seems like a lovely woman. I feel like I know her even though it’s only been a few pages.” Inara whimpered within me and heaven knew I felt the same. I whimpered, wiping my tears before they could fall on the pages of the journal that not only made me feel emotional but also somehow made me feel whole for the first time in days… “I have more pages, Ina. We can know them both and feel connected to the pack even though we ne

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~Somehow, I found myself in Andrew’s home even though I planned to return to Aurelia and spend the day with her after taking my bath. Initially, Andrew and I were called by Seth to one of the behest storage rooms in the pack where we found out that Jake’s information about Nolan’s warehouse was helpful. We got the weapons before Larisa could empty the warehouses. We also got some modern appliances from other realms without having to go through Alpha Clinton.I appreciated the warriors who made this possible and the white wolf trackers that went with them. But after we sorted out every weapon and appliance that was brought in, Andrew pulled me to the side and said, “Can you please have dinner with me, Otis, and Susanna,” “Why would I want to be there?” I asked immediately, ready to reject his invitation because I could tell they were having dinner together to talk about the love triangle issue.“Because I need you to back me up,” Andrew confessed. “See, I like Otis

    AURELIA~~Every day, I made sure I read at least five pages from my mother’s journal and I learned a lot about her, my dad, my grandparents, my grandparents, and Mia Lu who was still sleeping peacefully in her room. The more I read, the less angry I become. I had started relating with the white wolves again but there was still a bit of tension among us all. I was working on that as we have been training together for the past week. The Dark Moon warriors have become familiar with the military techniques of Black Fur. It would be an added advantage if the war breaks out before I find a way to stop it from happening and also because no one outside the Dark Moon Pack knew I was alive. They have also gotten used to fighting alongside the white wolves who have also become stronger physically. There was still so much to learn and everyone was keen to learn… to become stronger. Everyone but me…. In a way.I mean, I still haven't tried to tap into my strength as a descendant of the Kin

    DAVIEN~~The day had just begun, and I was already unsure of how the rest of the day would turn out. Waking up to find Alpha Prince Kyle in my mate’s bed was only one of the unexpected surprises, and I must confess that feeling Katie’s lips on mine was my favorite unexpected incident.Her lips molded against mine like they were my long-lost piece. Instantly, my lungs gave way to a deep groan, and my hands itched to touch this bold woman. I had never felt like this with any woman.If I were being honest, I would say I had never kissed a woman before.Yes, this was my first kiss, and as Katie pressed her lips against mine, I feared she would discover that I was inexperienced. Would I be seen as man enough if I didn’t live up to her sexual expectations?What are her expectations, and on what experiences are they based?Could she have—Focus, Davien!I scolded myself. A first kiss should be memorable, so I should burn this moment into my memory.Slowly, I let my hands sneak all the way

    Princess Katie Anne~~“What happened between you both?” I asked Davien after Kyle slammed my bedroom door like a child.“Nothing much.” Davien shrugged and bent down to pick up the duvet and pillow on the floor. My brows furrowed, another question swelling in my mind even though he still hadn’t answered the first one I asked him. But he did eventually, saying, “He just made me realize that I have a lot to get used to around here.”Although I didn’t understand what he said, I blurted, “You slept on the floor?”Davien nodded, and I exclaimed, “Why? Did I ask you to?”I couldn’t stop myself from wondering if I did that before I fell asleep last night.“You didn’t ask me to sleep on the floor, Princess Katie. I chose to sleep there because I assumed I was still a stranger to you even though we share a bond. You didn’t know me until yesterday. I had to respect your privacy.” Davien answered rigidly, addressing me with my title even though I had already told him not to.I didn’t know how

My eyes were heavy with sleep, but I blinked rapidly to keep them open, staring at my sister’s mate, who stood above me with a glare etched on his face.“Why are you in bed with her?” Davien, or whatever his name is, spat that question in my face. I was too exhausted for this.I didn’t get a wink of sleep until I got in Katie’s bed, and no, it wasn’t hunger that kept me up. It was the thought of having to wait six years to claim my mate or have any intimate relationship with her.I couldn’t sleep because of my thoughts, but Katie’s scent had always comforted me, and since I couldn’t crawl between my Ma and Pa, it

    DAVIEN~~To my surprise, Katie led me up the stairs to the third floor of the palace after openly rejecting Cole for the second time and hopefully for the last time because I couldn't stand the sight of that guy.We all knew Cole.He had been a boy since he was little, which explains why he and Damien immediately got along. Those two have been friends for as long as I can remember. My brother would travel all the way to Cole’s pack to spend time with him but never walk down the hallway to say hi to me unless he needed my help.“You don’t have to worry about Cole, Davien. My uncles will make sure he never shows up in front of me, and as soon as Kyle hears about this, he will track him down and bury him alive just to keep him away.”Katie muttered, chuckling sweetly as she spoke about her brother, whereas I was just thinking about my own brother, but not so sweetly.I pushed my family discourse aside and focused on Katie, with whom I will build a new family. A better one, in fact.“I

    Princess Katie Anne~~Gosh! Can this day end already?Like I was fucking exhausted. What I needed right now was some peace and quiet, and I thought I would be getting that after dinner with my family, but he just had to show up.“That asshole,” Zuri seethed within me, emanating a kind of rage that I didn’t know a white wolf like her could access. She heard my thoughts and scoffed in my mind, “I’m a white wolf, not a stupid one.”“I beg to differ,” Zoe chided, initiating another session of bickering.However, I stopped them both before it could escalate: “I do not need this right now. You either help me get rid of this idiot, or I ask my mom to put a solid and unbreakable wall between our minds.”I might not know how to do that on my own, but with a little help from my mom, my wolves would be shut out. Somehow, my wolves inherited the fear I had for my mom. Although I don’t show it often, that woman terrifies me sometimes because I know just how powerful she is.“But why get rid of

    DAVIEN ~~ Dinner back home was usually quiet, and even if anyone had anything to say, it would be about Damien’s latest stunt and my dad's stressful day. Most times, I skip eating with my family, and they never force me to make an appearance unless we had guests joining us. However, dinner with the royal family was different. The long table in the dining hall was the longest I had ever seen in my entire twenty years of living. I tried to count the number of people in the hall, but I kept losing track and had to start over as the kids moved around.“They are all family?” I whispered to Princess Katie... I mean just Katie as I pull out a chair she led me to and help her get comfortable. “Yes, Davien,” She laughed, saying my name like it was part of her favorite melody. “Everyone in the pack is family, but these are my closest.” “Closest? Seriously?” I asked deadpan. There were almost thirty people in the hall, and they all had a seat at the long table. The royal family got the se

    Princess Katie Anne~~ If anyone was looking at me, he or she wouldn’t hesitate to claim that I had been sitting in silence for many hours. I was beside a man who turned his family away just so he could stay with me.However, I was sitting in everything but silence. Inside, I was anything but silent.The thoughts and voices of two distinct yet similar wolves raced through my mind like whirlwinds. The discussion might not be happening between Davien and me, but it was definitely going on between Zuri and Zoe.It all started when Zuri said to Zoe, sarcasm dripping into my mind as her cool voice bounced off the walls of my thoughts, “You still think he is a wimp? Did you see how he stood up to defend us? I’m beginning to question your decision-making ability.”“Um, you mean I’m dumb?” Zoe asked with disbelief. “And you, who didn’t question a bond, are the smart one?”“Not to brag, but I do believe I should be the decision-maker between us both. You are hotheaded and—”“Don’t even fin

    Alpha Prince Kyle In that instance, time froze, and my body did too, not just because my mate growled into my mind with conviction, “Mate,” but mostly because the conviction Rio had initially turned into confusion as we both stared at the person whose scent invaded my nostrils like never before.“T-that’s impossible.” I stuttered and staggered backward, unable to believe what was happening. “She can’t be my mate. She can’t be our mate, Rio.”I shook my head, pleading with the moon goddess to rescue me from whatever this was.I thought I was ready to find my mate. Well, until this minute. Until my mate turned out to be her—the least expected person.“She’s the only one in the library, Kyle. It’s her, and you know it.” Rio said to me, sounding just as confused as I was, even though we both knew life was about to get difficult.Did I say things happen easily for me? Well, not anymore.The familiar sweet vanilla scent mixed with the welcoming scent of books filled my nostrils again.

    Alpha Prince Kyle’~~I was no spiritual guru, and when I say that, I also mean that I wasn't really into the spiritual stuff that most of my family members enjoy. In fact, all but Katie and my Dad and perhaps Ronald. Also, I wasn’t so into the physical stuff like Katie and my Dad, and again, maybe Ronald—the little man is still juggling between both worlds and trying to find his footing. It was safe to say that I was the weirdest one in my family, but I didn’t feel weird or odd. I fit in. But to me, Davien didn’t fit into his own family. Not a spiritual expert or an energy expert, but I could sense the bad energy and vibe among the four members of that family. “For one, his brother is an idiot. Ma should have let us rip his head off.” Rio hissed.Although I was more of a diplomatic person who loves peace, my wolf can get a whole lot crazy when he is pissed, and Goddess knew he was pissed earlier when the dumbass brother of Katie’s mate tried to say shit about her."Plus, his mo
