ALPHA RAIDEN~~“You don’t want to know how hard it has been to keep a straight face.” After leaving Aurelia in the apartment, I exhaled as soon as I saw Andrew, ignoring the hurt in her stormy blue eyes.“The look on her face when she realizes your surprise will be worth it. Trust me, Raid.” Andrew muttered.“I hope so.” I told my best friend, ignoring the discomfort the nickname ‘Raid’ caused in my heart. I was beginning to hate that version of my name thanks to Larisa whose name I shouldn’t be thinking on my woman’s birthday. I looked at Andrew and asked, “Are you certain you want to celebrate Susanna today? I don’t see why you can’t wait till her birthday. It’s just seven days away.”Andrew shook his head, “I’m certain. I have to do this today if I want it to still be a surprise. I mean if you surprise Aurelia today and I don’t do the same for my mate, she would see it coming on her birthday. I want her to be surprised.”“That makes a lot of sense,” I mumbled, walking to the mid
AURELIA~~Using the word “Breathtaking” to describe myself or more precisely, the reflection of me that I was staring at in the mirror would be an understatement. All my life, I had been basic. Basic Luna. Basic Mate. Basic warrior and perhaps a basic friend. The one thing I did right was being more than basic to my babies– Katie and Kyle.But as soon as I wore this dress, I could feel myself transitioning from mere basic to extraordinary. From this moment onward, the old basic me ceased to exist. I stepped out of the room with Iris and Susanna beside me and for some reason, neither of them mentioned Raiden while they were dressing me up. It was as if he wasn’t supposed to be here… as if they knew he wouldn’t be here. If I wasn’t too afraid to know more, I would have asked Iris but I’d rather hold my tongue.“Mama!” Kyle gasped when he saw me. “You look like a bride! Ouch–” I couldn’t see what happened between the twins but Kyle’s cry caught my attention and I frowned at Katie
ALPHA RAIDEN~~I saw and felt every emotion zapping through my mate as her eyes shifted from one part of the hall to another. Fuck! Hall. I quickly corrected myself even though I knew Aurelia understood me, “Welcome to the grand hall built within our home as you will be–” Perhaps she did it to save me from stuttering as her beauty made it hard for my brain to function. Whatever her reason was, Aurelia tiptoed and captured my lips right there before everyone, including our silly kids whose giggles filled my ears like music while I held on to their breathtaking mother. I could taste the flavor of her lipgloss as I deepened the kiss, thinking about how I would peel this dress off her later, in our new room… In our new home. The kiss lasted until Mia Lu walked up to us and said, “We have to get started before we can end the ceremony and you both can eat each other’s face for as long as you want.” True, kissing the bride should be reserved for the end of the ceremony. But what i
ALPHA RAIDEN~~Thankfully, before I could forget that today was meant for celebration, Mia Lu voiced, her words resonating through the hall, “This water now carries the essence of the soul of every white wolf alive, Aurelia Seer King and to become our Alpha, you have to be capable of holding this essence within you. Do you dare to drink this water?”Aurelia took the bowl from Mia Lu and at that instant, I could see that her eyes had turned white like it did when she transformed weeks ago. Her voice came out with peace and confidence, “I, Aurelia Seer King dare to become your Alpha, White Wolves of the Great White Shade Pack.” As soon as she said those words, she brought the bowl to her lips and right before our eyes, she drank the water. She didn’t stop until she emptied the bowl and returned it to Mia Lu, her eyes still glowing. “It’s time to take the Alpha’s pledge, Aurelia Seer King.” Mia Lu muttered. “Repeat after me.” Aurelia did as told. She repeated these words, “I, Aureli
AURELIA~~That wasn’t the birthday I expected. I mean, how do I go from being sad this morning to being this happy? The kind of happiness flowing with my blood could be enough to make a thousand people laugh for days like they inhaled laughing gas, I was on cloud ten, and still ascending.“I can barely contain it. I want to shift, Relia, and run around the house with the loudest howl.” Inara uttered happily, jumping around in my head.“Thank you for telling me. Now I know to keep you locked up. I can’t have you forcing a shift on my wedding night or running around when I could be getting pleasured in bed.” I muttered to my wolf, the smell of my arousal hitting my nostrils way before Raiden let out a deep growl.He etched, looking back at me as his hold on my hand tightened, “I thought I should show you around our new home before taking you to the room but smelling like that? Relia, we won’t make it past the hallway.” Consummating our wedding in the hallway? That sounds eroticall
ALPHA RAIDEN~~The war was here. The same one that would claim my life and make my kids fatherless. The same one that would make the woman I love a widow– mateless. The same one I have been dreading since Aurelia started falling in love with me again. The same one–“Snap out of it, Raiden. Death or not we still have to fight!” My wolf barked at me as I mindlessly stood beside Aurelia in the same hall where we married. “Aurelia is right. You gave up even before the war. It’s like you are willing to die–” “If that will keep them safe, then yes, I’ll die.” I cut my wolf off. “You can’t keep them safe by being a living dead!” Lex seethed. “Look at her taking over and leading alone even though you are still here. Wake up, Raiden or Aurelia will die before the so-called predicted death gets to you!” My wolf’s words hit me hard.I tried to pull myself together just as Aurelia started addressing the people in the hall. When I built the hall and had some of my pack engineers work on it
ALPHA RAIDEN~~Without hesitation, I agreed with Lex because I couldn’t imagine my family without me even though they lived well without me in the past…I couldn’t imagine living in the Great Beyond without them– if there was a Great Beyond. Heck, nothing would be great about a place where my family wouldn’t be–Katie etched, calling me back to reality, “Can I go with you? I can fight too.” Truly, she could fight. She has been training with Seth and Tara, the strongest female warrior if Aurelia isn’t in the group. My daughter was a little warrior but she was one I wouldn’t want on the battlefield.Her innocence was to be protected for as long as possible so I answered, “You will fight right here beside Mia Lu and every others that will be staying behind. They need you to protect them.” Katie didn’t seem convinced but she nodded regardless while Kyle just looked at us. He didn’t utter a word, not until I asked him, “Everything okay, buddy?” My son held my gaze for a second before
AURELIA~~I heard him scream. I heard him plead. I heard him lose his cool. Scratch that, I felt it more, his emotions pushing through our bond in a way that had me standing outside the shield for what seemed like forever even though I had no time to waste. I just couldn’t bring myself to move away from the house even though it was hidden perfectly within Tamia’s shield. I could see beyond the shield if I wanted to but I was scared I would change my mind if I was to see Raiden again. I was afraid I would let him out because he doesn't deserve to be locked up against his will–“We have to move now, Luna Aurelia,” Seth said to me, without asking questions about why I had to lock Raiden up. Even Andrew who was standing on my other side didn’t question me. It was as if they knew. I also didn’t ask them any questions as my feet failed to move away from the shield. I didn’t realize Andrew was experiencing the same until I heard him groan in pain. Susanna was also beyond his reach a
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 hav
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 acc
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
Hi, dearest readers.I should probably begin this note by apologizing for my inconsistency this month. I'm certain some of you already hate me. Please don't. I have been busy and panicking about writing as well. Regardless, I'm sorry and I promise to complete this story within the next week. Yes, Aurelia's and Raiden's story has a few chapters left and I'm so excited for the ending. Alos I want to use this medium to thank you all for your support and love. I started writing this book ending of June 2024 and I must say, it's been a journey. A sweet one but also one that makes me worry as I plot and try to figure out what comes next in the story. However, your contributions, comments, votes, and kind words have helped me to the end. Thank you so much. I will always thank the heavens for you and this book. To be honest, I didn't expect my first book to perform this well. I was so scared when I started and I would be lying if I said I am no longer scared.But worrying is part of life, I
ALPHA RAIDEN~~I was certain I would kick Tristan’s wolf and everyone from Black Fur Pack out of my pack without thinking twice.But after everything I saw with the help of Aurelia, I knew keeping the wolf was the right thing to do, not just because he was a good wolf but because I also wanted to keep my enemy close. “I still don’t like this,” Lex grumbled within me as Aurelia and I gazed at each other, standing before our home. Let’s just say Lex has officially gotten a rival. Prior to this time, I was worried about having Tristan as a rival and in fact, wished him death. Lex was worried too but he was more worried now that Trstan’s wolf would be staying in our pack–“Not just our pack.” Lex countered. “You decided to bring him to our home. I don’t like that.” “He won’t be living with us, Lex,” I assured my wolf. But that didn’t lessen Lex's worry or should I say, jealousy.Aurelia asked me, “Are you ready?”To show my daughter that I didn’t throw Dolf out like I said I would?
LOUIS’S POV ~~ Despite being a terrible person, I made that decision the minute I challenged Alpha Tristan to the battle of Alphas. I decided to step down if I won and if I lost, it would have been a dream come true as I had wanted to die for the part I played in crippling Black Fur Pack. Yes, before I stepped on the battleground with Alpha Tristan, I knew what to do but what I didn’t know was the fact that I would find my mate. My destined mate. A beautiful woman– the most beautiful I had ever set my eyes on. The moon goddess counted me worthy of a mate after she tied me to Larisa. Why would she even tie me to Larisa in the first place? Perhaps she did that to punish me and I deserve to be punished but tieng me with this amazingly calm woman who was standing behind Luna Aurelia couldn’t be a punishment unless the moon goddess planned to punish the woman and not me. “Does she look like someone that has to be punished?” My wolf asked his voice light as a feather. I look
AURELIA~~“Can Dolf stay, Daddy?” Katie asked. But before Raiden could answer our daughter’s question. I already knew what his answer would be, not because I could read his mind but because I knew how uncomfortable he was about the entire idea of having Tristan in our pack. “You would too if it’s Larisa instead of Tristan. Imagine Dolf was Larisa’s wolf, would you want her to be kept alive and even close to Raiden?” Inara said into my mind. I knew I wouldn’t like that but this was Dolf. I knew he had saved me many times. The last time I saw Tristan when he showed up at the the border of my pack, I perceived the pureness of his wolf’s spirit. That has to be why I was so worried, right?It couldn’t be because I have some sick feelings for Tristan. Right?“I’m sorry, baby, but he can’t stay here.” Raiden finally broke the news to Katie. My daughter’s lips began to tremble just as Dolf, a gigantic black wolf was carried into the hall by six men. Despite the number of men carrying
