ALPHA RAIDEN~~I stood in front of my mansion, pacing as I deeply considered my options. I have been standing here ever since I watched Aurelia drive away with my kids… with Tristan who she should never have trusted. I pulled at the root of my hair when I felt Andrew’s consciousness in my head again. He has been asking me for permission to attack as we both felt Tristan and his entourage drawing closer to the border where Andrew had stationed troops. It was hard to make a decision that I knew would come back to bite me in the ass.But my failure to give the last order would also tear my ass off as soon as Aurelia and my kids get past my borders. It would be hard to get them back. I allowed Andrew into my head and said to him through the mind link, “Keep Aurelia and the kids safe during the attack–” “They didn’t make it to the border, Alpha.” Andrew’s voice echoed in my mind. My feet froze and my breath hitched as I said, “They didn’t?” “Yes, Alpha. I’ve been trying to communi
AURELIA~~My heart skipped and a part of me sort of died when I saw my daughter’s terrified face. Beads of tears escaped her eyes as she blinked rapidly. I could hear the murmurs from the small crowd behind Katie and I completely avoided Hazel’s gaze for obvious reasons.“Dad?” I asked with disbelief loud in my voice. How could she call him dad? Why would she call him–“I know he’s my dad, mom.” Katie cried, sniffling as she added, “Kyle told me everything, Mom.” Her heart plummeted to the bottom of my soul. Two of my fears were manifesting before my eyes. One is Katie’s reaction when she finds out the truth and the second is Black Fur members finding out the truth about my past.However, my focus remained on my wailing child. “Baby–”Katie muttered an objection, “Can you stop hurting him? He didn’t take Kyle.” Although I had many other questions, I settled for one to avoid overwhelming Katie. “Where is your brother?” Katie wiped her wet face as she began to explain, revealing s
ALPHA RAIDEN~~My son was kidnapped within the walls of my home… I was still getting used to having a son but there was no getting used to the fact that my home was not safe for my son and neither was my pack safe for my daughter. How did anyone get into the mansion without alerting my senses? For fuck’s sake, I’ve been standing in front of the mansion for what seemed like forever. Even though I couldn’t perceive Kyle for some unknown reason, I should have perceived the person who kidnapped him. But strangely, there was no scent to lead me to the kidnapper… Just a flimsy note with words that were obviously scribbled hastily. “You want to see your son again? Await further instructions. Your ability to obey the instructions given would determine if you’d see him alive or dead, Alpha Raiden…. And oh! Congratulations on finding your long-lost destined mate.”Those were the words in the note left in my office by whoever took Kyle. I held on to Kyle’s mask as I fumed. How did I go w
LARISA’S POV~~I was aware that Aurelia returned to the pack with a powerful Alpha and a strong pack behind her. I was also aware that she had kids with this powerful Alpha which was Tristan… not My Raiden. Finding out that Raiden was the father of Aurelia’s twins put a glitch in my plans. I mean, after Tristan proposed to Aurelia publicly, I assumed I wouldn’t have to kill anyone to keep Raiden… at least not anymore which was why I threw Aurelia a party to send her off my territory and life.But this new development meant that I had three new obstacles to knock down– Aurelia and her two bastard kids. I have to kill them. No other option. It killed me to find Aurelia’s son in Raiden’s office when I returned home, hoping that Rauden had not noticed that I had been gone all night. I hid my scent and went to his office intending to surprise him and hopefully, get him to mark me since Aurelia was on her way out of the pack.Heck, that was the plan!But instead of Raiden, I found a li
AURELIA ~~ It's been over twenty-four hours since Kyle went missing and even though neither Katie nor I could feel the bond we shared with him stretching, Katie was becoming restless and worry was eating me away as seconds ticked into hours. Although Alpha Tristan has been receiving calls from Black Fur Pack because he was needed back at the Pack, he has refused to leave me and the kids behind. He and the little group of warriors that traveled down with us were out all night searching for Kyle together with Raiden’s men yet my son hasn’t been found. Where could he be? I cried to myself. “Katie is watching, Relia. Please don’t break down now. Kyle is missing but he is alright. I can sense that.” Inara consoled me. “I just want to see him and hold him. He must be scared, Ina.” I whimpered to my wolf. I thought since Inara could sense Kyle, she’d be able to trace him and lead us to him but after so many failed attempts, we’ve given up on that method. “I still don’t understa
ALPHA TRISTAN’S POV~~I fucking hate the thought of leaving Lia here in Raiden’s pack but that thought just became my fucking reality because I had to return to my pack. “I can’t believe you’re choosing the smooth running of your plan over staying to find Kyle. You claim to love Aurelia and the kids but you’re–” Dolf began to lecture me like always.“Do you ever get tired of advising me knowing that I won’t listen?” I interrupted my wolf as I stepped towards my men. Louis grabbed the door for me and I entered the car before Dolf retorted, “Do you ever get tired of coming up with stupid plans that would simply ruin your life?”I blocked Dolf out of my head as Louis made himself comfortable behind the wheel. He and I would be driving home in the same car and even though Louis and I were pretty close, I’d have preferred traveling with my shy Lia, loud Katie, and reserved Kyle.It would have been a memorable trip because I planned to enlighten Lia about her powers as soon as she opene
AURELIA~~“How much longer do I have to lie to her? She has lost trust in me, Hazel.” I compalined to my bestfriend. It’s been three days of unending search yet Kyle hasn’t been found. From what I heard, Tristan and the others had arrived in Black Fur territory earlier today, and hearing that filled me up with a bittersweet emotion. I was happy and relieved to know Tristan was home safe but it broke me each time I think about how my kids and I should have been with him.Although I hadn’t seen much of Raiden in the past three days, I still hated being here. Katie was beginning to hate me for keeping her from Kyle just like I kept her from Raiden all her life. Although she hasn’t voiced her hatred, I could see it in her eyes, and goddess did it make me feel awful. “Have you considered telling her the truth? Katie is a bright child.” Hazel took her time before she let out those words. We were both in the living room. The apartment has become too big for just us but even the space
ALPHA RAIDEN~~I saw Aurelia walking out of the apartment for the first time in days that night and I followed her, careful not to spook her as she mindlessly navigated the forest. I’ve made it my duty to stand guard of the building for the past few days even though I had men stationed around the building. If Kyle was kidnapped under my nose and Katie bullied to near death, it was only right to strengthen the security around the building. I have also begun to look into the kids that almost killed my daughter. I’d use them as examples to others when I get to punish them. The search for Kyle had taken over my time but finding the bullies was also important. I need to make my pack a better and safer place for anyone to reside. After watching Aurelia sit by the still water, moving her hands around and eventually burst into tears, I apparached her. “You have a thing for crying in the middle of the forest at an ungodly hour, Aurelia,” I announced my presence. Aurelia’s eyes were swol
Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV ~~“Are you serious?” Camila asked after a few minutes of silence that must have made her realize that I wasn’t trying to be funny.I nodded, “Yes, I am, Mila. That letter has to be opened in five years when you turn eighteen years old.”The plan was simple—write letters to her on every birthday, and in each letter, I would tell her what I did the entire year. This particular letter contained how I found out she was my mate and everything I had to do so we could both have a normal life.I chose to do this because it was the only way I believed Camila would understand what had happened and why I had to do what I did. I didn’t want to risk losing our bond forever when she turned eighteen and hated me.“Exactly, Kyle. It’s five years away. Why give me a letter I can’t read for the next five years as a gift?”Of course, my brothers understood why, but they didn’t say a word, giving me the chance to say, “Because I am trying to teach you patience, Camila. Now do
Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV~~While my family and Camila’s parents planned a surprise birthday party and forced me to be a part of it, I wanted to tell them that she would rather spend her birthday in a haven where books are unlimited and with a few friends.But they wouldn’t listen to me. That was why I let them plan the party, but that didn’t stop me from planning a different party for Camila.And of course, the venue we needed was my private library. Only a few people were invited. By "few," I meant Ronald, who was there because he wouldn’t miss his best friend's real birthday party; Kennedy, who still enjoyed reading; and Soraya, because she was the only female friend of Camila who wouldn’t spend the entire night trying to get my attention or that of my brothers, who weren’t even teenagers yet.We celebrated Camila by reading her favorite book, and soon it was time to gift her.Ronald took the lead, presenting a fancy box and saying, “You have been talking about these sneakers, so
Princess Katie Anne~~Three months went by in the twinkling of an eye.I had been training and had gotten better at using my spiritual energy. Although my physical strength was still so much better, my spiritual strength had grown strong enough for me to train confidently with Elora.Yeah, Elora, my little sister.She had rubbed it in my face a few times, but she was also a darling, helping me to train alongside the greatest trainers that I had been assigned to.Another thing I had achieved within the past three months was peace and happiness. I found all of that even though I now had to live away from my childhood home. I wouldn’t trade our little home for anything.I had come to love having a space that Davien and I could share despite my initial emotional outburst, and clearly, I wasn’t far enough away from my annoying siblings.“Right now, I want to be far away from everyone and break a few things,” Zoe seethed within me just as Davien’s scent hit my nostrils.My mate walked in
DAVIEN~~“I am sorry I undermined you before my family. Although that wasn't my intention, I did it regardless, and I am so sorry, Davien,” Katie said, her voice filled with sincerity even though we were lashing out at each other a few seconds ago.My chest rose and fell as if my heart were on the verge of stopping. I hated confrontations, and it was all because I had never gotten to speak my mind or express myself during any confrontation until now.I expressed myself, and Katie listened. She understood me. She set her emotions aside and chose to apologize to me.That made me feel like the luckiest man alive.I knew this would happen, and I might have been rehearsing the words I would say to Katie all day, even though I still couldn’t get my dad’s threat to kill her and the other white wolves out of my mind.Never had I been involved in politics. Until now, and I spent the whole day with Raiden and Aurelia. Yes, they finally made me call them by their names. After getting correcte
Princess Katie Anne~~It was no secret that Davien and I weren’t on the same page about the pool house that my parents wanted us to move into. Even though we had both spent the day away from each other, I couldn’t get him out of my mind.Mostly, this was due to the steamy love-making sessions we had enjoyed overnight. However, I still couldn’t shake off or ignore the annoyance simmering beneath my desire. I felt like Davien could have taken my side during breakfast this morning.I certainly wasn’t committing a crime by having sex with him, and no one saw me complaining about my parents, who we all knew had been in the game since before I was born—I mean, it’s the very reason I was conceived in the first place. Every member of my family knew me well enough to anticipate that Davien and I would eventually have a confrontation as soon as we were alone together. Unfortunately, we had been apart all day, and this issue kept burning within me, leaving me unfocused during both my physical
ALPHA PRINCE KYLE ~~“Ronald told me you would be here to bribe me, so I am not stunned to see you,” Camila stated, folding her arms around her small frame with a look of playful defiance.“It’s a gift, Mila. Reading the journal to you is not a bribe; it’s a gift,” I argued with a bright smile, mentally firing curse words at Ronald through our mental link.Of course, he told her. He was such a talker, always eager to spill whatever secrets he thought would spice up the atmosphere between him and his best friend.“Whatever, Prince Kyle,” she replied, rolling her eyes, even though a mischievous twinkle danced in them. “Whether this is a bribe or a gift, I will accept it, but I also have some conditions. Since you are the charming prince, you don’t have to—”“I will do anything if that means you will forgive me and stop being mad at me, Camila. I am not a charming prince with you. I am simply Kyle, your nerdy godbrother.” I cut her off, exhilarated by the freedom I felt around Camila,
ALPHA PRINCE KYLE (14)~~Unfortunately, breakfast wasn’t jolly this morning, and it all started with the argument between Katie and my Pa.As much as I envy Katie, who seemed to be on the path to completing her mate bond, I do not want to be in her shoes. Heck! I am glad I won't have to be for a long time. Discussing my sex life with my parents wasn’t on my to-do list.Speaking of my to-do list, I have one important task to do today. I left the palace after breakfast to get the task done.“You can’t go empty-handed though,” my wolf muttered, causing me to stop dead in my tracks.“Right, but what can I get for her?” I asked my wolf with confusion.I was heading over to the white wolves’ settlement to find Camila, who usually spends her mornings with other white wolf kids. Since our schedule hasn’t been the same since my birthday, I wasn’t sure she would be in my library after her morning routine, so I decided to find her this morning.“How about the rewrite of Grandma Elora’s journa
DAVIEN~~“We are kicking you out, Katie,” Queen Aurelia said after a minute of uncomfortable silence. “See it as a gift.”“How is the pool house a gift? It’s nothing compared to my room, Mom,” Katie countered, her voice barely a whisper.I held her hand under the table, waiting to understand the situation before butting in.“It’s a gift because we are giving you your place and privacy. We don’t have to hear you and your mate all night and have this weird conversation every day—” Alpha King Raiden chimed in.However, Katie cut him off. “We don’t have to talk about it, Dad. It’s weird to you, but to me, it is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Stop making it seem—”“Please don’t discuss this further, Katie. I am begging you,” King Raiden pleaded, his face turning white.I could imagine being in his shoes and having to hear my daughter moaning all through the night. While I wouldn’t find it disgusting, I would find it disturbing. Katie was his daughter. Once upon a time, she
Princess Katie Anne~~Goddess!I could just ride him forever. The tingling feelings that erupted within me every time he touched me were addictive, and I found myself wanting more. And more. And more!But sadly, my body failed me after I had burned all the energy I had. I wanted more of Davien but also needed to eat, and so did Davien, who had collapsed over me, pressing me into the bed.“For someone who just lost her virginity, that was incredible,” I heard Zoe comment as her words echoed through my fuzzy mind.Despite hearing her snide comment, I could only focus on the fact that I lost my virginity last night. I didn't wake up to a bloodstained sheet or sticky legs because Davien cleaned me up after our first time.“He is as sweet as his monster cock,” Zoe moaned within me, sending sparks through me.I whimpered to my freaky wolf, my sensitive core craving more friction, “Stop doing that, Zoe.”“I beg to differ. I love it,” Zuri said, sounding just as horny as I felt.I couldn't
