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

If her wolf would allow Raiden to feel the bond to his children he would probably have already found him!

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   59. Into My Arms

    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

    AURELIA~~Anxious blue eyes stared back at me, curiosity and anxiety deeply etched within them. Katie shifted her gaze from my face to Raiden’s. We were sitting in the living room in uncomfortable silence.Raiden’s presence was unusual and I wouldn’t have allowed it if I didn't need his help as I revealed to him last night. “I’ll do anything for you, Aurelia. Just name it.” Raiden had answered, clearly convinced that he had the full capability to help me. Tell me why he looked extremely nervous and uncomfortable now that he was sitting in the presence of Katie. It’s been over five minutes of silence and Katie was beginning to assume the worse. I could sense that from the way her heart was throbbing loudly. Since Raiden seemed incapacitated, I decided to start the process myself. “We have something to tell you, baby,” I announced, twisting my body on the sofa so I could stare directly at my daughter who was sitting on the other end of the dark brown sofa.Katie’s breath hitched, h

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   61. Finding Kyle

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~She has got to be kidding me!“Are you bipolar?” I blurted before I could stop myself from offending her even more. I did her a favor. Telling Katie that Kyle was kidnapped was clearly a bad idea and it would have caused more issues for her to worry about but rather than thank me, she lashed out at me. In fact, she’s kicking me out.Aurelia’s eyes widened and Lex chimed in my head, “Wrong move, Man.”“What did you say to me?” Aurelia asked. Her stance and scent made it known that she was more than ready to rip my head off. “I asked if you have ever been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, Aurelia.” Rather than take back my words as my wolf advised, I kinda made more emphasis. Aurelia’s eyes narrowed as she stood akimbo, glaring at me, “You’re the crazy and mentally unfit one, Raiden. I should have known better than to ask you to help. When have you ever done anything right?”Her words stung. I lost control and barked, “Yes, I fucked up. I messed up our lives but I wo

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   62. Larisa's POV (4)

    LARISA’S POV~~“Why won’t he stop coughing!” I groaned. Completely frustrated. The little boy has been more of a pain in my ass than I thought he would. Fucj that! I thought he was the safer twin to kidnap because he was gentle and sweet unlike his sister but I’ve come to realize that it would have been better to take the girl instead. After all, I could easily knock her out with drugs and seal her mouth with a tape just to keep her from talking my ears off. The little boy has reminded me why it is safer for me not to have kids even though I still desire to carry Raiden kids in the future.I was nice enough to give him freshly made meals from my parents' mansion yet he refused to eat. I bought him snacks, but he didn’t take them and each time he wakes up from the drug-induced sleep, he wails about his mom and sister. Somehow, I managed to endure him until he started coughing last night. Before the cold started, I noticed his cries became less loud and frequent. I assumed he had

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   63. To Find Kyle

    AURELIA~~Keeping my wolf’s breed a secret has been difficult. Sometimes, Inara experiences a dominating boost of her spiritual energy and if I fail to be on guard, she would force me to shift and do as she pleases. Although I usually find a secluded place to shift and let her roam around while no one is watching, I haven’t been able to do that in over a month. Precisely, I haven’t been able to let Inara out since I arrived in Dark Moon Pack. It was safer that way. But after a month of keeping her locked in, I could feel her energy crackling within. Inara was also doing her best to remain at ease because neither of us could risk getting discovered and Kyle was still missing. Six days. My son has been missing for six days.Yet I stood before the mirror in the bathroom, mixing a hair dye. Dying my hair was one of the many things I had to do to keep my wolf’s breed hidden. “To think you used to believe your natural white hair made you a freak.” Inara made fun of me, speaking to

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   64. Mateo And Leo

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~Aurelia had successfully plastered fear all over my heart. I didn’t know Kyle well enough. Yes. I have no bond with him. Quite alright. If anything was to happen to Kyle, I wouldn’t feel the pain but that wasn’t comforting. Katie would feel it and Aurelia would as well and that is the reason I have been even more restless since I found out about Kyle’s lung disease. I was scared. “This is crazy, Raiden.” Andrew blurted, throwing his hand in frustration. “I can’t believe the boy is within the pack and we still haven’t found him. Six days down the drain. Sox days of wasted efforts. We’ve searched everywhere, man. Every house has been turned upside down.” My Beta complained. He had dark circles under his eyes and his hair looked like a brush hadn’t touched the strands in days. Andrew and I haven’t been seeing each other for the past three days. We mostly communicated through the mind but seeing him now, it was obvious that he had been searching for Kyle restlessly

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   65. Larisa's POV (5)

    LARISA’S POV ~~After tending to Aurelia’s abomination alone all night, I decided to visit Raiden without taking care of my appearance. I thought it would be good for my plans if he saw me looking haggard… I thought his heart would beat for me again if he realized that I was under a lot of stress because of his missing son…Which was true even though it wasn’t in the same sense. “... I’m putting you on the resting list though…” Those words were a testament to the fact that he still cared about me… that he still saw the good in me and that I was happy. I got carried away by the love I had always carried in my heart for him and I hugged him, kissing his neck even though his skin reeks.He clearly hasn’t showered today. Yet I loved him.“I have missed you, Raid. I’ve missed us.” I sighed, inhaling his musky scent as I held him, hoping that he would wrap his arms around me as well. But Raiden tried to push me away instead of holding me. “Larisa.” He called my full name despite kno

    AURELIA~~Alpha Tristan and I spoke at length. He assured me that Kyle would be alright even though he was far from us and he explained how I could use my gift to track Kyle after I promised him I would be careful and not get discovered.“Call me when you find a place to perform the process. I’ll be with you.” Alpha Tristan had said those words to me before ending the call because he had something to do. I noticed how versed Alpha Tristan was when it came to my abilities and during the call, I asked him how he knew so much about me when I knew little to nothing about myself. His answer still had me blushing even though the call had ended hours ago, “I had to study you, Lia because you stole my heart.” Tristan also told me that he acquired some books that explained the biology of a White Werewolf and he promised to give them to me when I return to the pack with the twins. I looked forward to that moment and even though I was hesitant to call him at first, I felt at ease after spe

    ALPHA TRISTAN’S POV~~As my eyes fluttered open, I could have sworn that my body had forgotten what it meant to be alive. Opening my eyes was harder than it should ever be for anyone but adjusting my eyes to the brightness around me was way harder than opening them. I let out a groan when I tried to lift a finger and pain consumed me. My entire body ached. I felt so heavy.“Alpha. You are awake.” Louis. That was his voice but it sounded more like noise to me as his voice sent a sharp ring through my aching head, making me groan again. At the moment, I didn’t feel like an Alpha. It took forever before I could see clearly and Louis's face was the first thing I saw. He was hovering above me, looking at me like he was scanning me for damages. “Thank the Goddess. I was beginning to worry that you might never wake up–” Louis stated, smiling. But seeing him so close to me sent flashes of what I knew was the past through my mind. I recalled everything. How he joined forces with Laris

    aryAURELIA~~“We can’t give up like this, Relia. You shouldn’t give up like this. Mend him. Do something.” Inara uttered, urging me even though Raiden was gone. Do something… I couldn’t count the number of times I had heard those two words today and I hated the sound of it, mostly because I couldn’t do anything. “Yes you can, Alpha.” Tamia’s voice echoed in my mind. I didn’t know how she managed to reach me despite the turmoil my mind had become but she did and her voice would have given me some sort of peace if I wasn’t mourning my mate… My teary eyes found Tamia and Lori beside me, making me wonder how long I had sat in the dirt with Raiden’s body. For how long has his heart been crushed right there in my presence? For how much longer can I keep this devastating news from my kids–“Oh, my kids.” I cried out, undiluted misery settling within my being, making itself at home. They just got their father. How do I tell them it would be just us from now on? How do I manage this

    AURELIA~~I knew I screamed. I felt my lips parting and my lungs pushing out air as my mouth widened. I knew I screamed but I heard nothing. The world went still while Raiden kept falling. Faster than my brain could register. Faster than my body could react. Although I was still standing, I fell with him. Although my eyes were still open, they closed the second his eyes did. I saw the same darkness he saw when he closed his eyes. I felt the same pain he felt when his heart was engulfed by a strong force and maybe I screamed because I knew there would be no going back as that force crushed his heart before I could even blink. “No!” Inara’s cry burst through my crushed soul as she exclaimed, “Do something, Relia.” But what could I have done? After draining Larisa as my wolf suggested, I didn’t expect any sudden movement from her. Heck, she was as good as dead and when Louis screamed those warning words, I was too tired to react quickly. Converting Larisa’s dark energy to pure

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   235. Damsel In Distress

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~It took seeing Larisa and Aurelia in a fight for me to realize that I was wrong to assume that I could take down Larisa just because I was the most powerful Alpha in the realm… Physical strength was no use against Larisa because she had soaked my soul in dark energy. She wasn’t even touching me and I was feeling pain despite floating in the air like gravity had decided to take a break.Sadly I realized that I was of no use in this war. In fact, I was merely a weak link that Larisa wanted to use to defeat Aurelia and have her way in the realm. I was trying so hard not to scream and came off as a powerless puny before my exhausted mate and my warriors but this pain was eating me alive. It was everywhere. Digging deep into me. I have been trying to block the pain from getting to Aurelia as I could tell that she didn’t need that right now. If I couldn’t contribute power, I shouldn’t add pain either.But of course, that wasn’t easy to achieve. I could feel the pain slip

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   234. The Better Party

    AURELIA~~Raiden’s scream was heard by every warrior. I could feel every one of our friends and pack members freezing for a moment as we all understood that for an Alpha; in fact, the strongest Alpha in the realm; to scream like that, hell was coursing through him. We all understood. I, as his mate and Luna, knew even better because the second the hell burst out within him, I felt it burning me from within and it was only a matter of time before I let out a scream of my own. “You dare not, Relia.” Inara’s voice echoed, breaking through whatever Larisa was doing to Raiden which was affecting me greatly as I tried to keep the spiritual link between me and the warriors open. If those links should close, they would all die as they would be no match for Larisa’s fortified warriors. “It hurt. I’m burning from within and–” I cried to my wolf even though Phoebe was still right behind me, healing me and Otis keeping me out of sight.“Do you know why she is coming at you hard?” Inara as

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~My feet couldn’t carry my body weight fast enough as I ran through the forest, noticing how deserted my pack was. Those pack members who were not in the hall with Mia Lu were with Aurelia on the battlefront where my body was literally yanking me toward.I was on high alert and if I was being honest with myself, I would admit that I wasn’t in my right senses but how do I even think when all I felt was the urgent and dying need to be with Aurelia? It was like a pull.The kind of pull a mate should feel only when his mate is in grave danger. The kind that makes a man’s heart bleed and every nerve in his body go out of control.Yes, I was losing it. I had lost it from the second I regained consciousness and felt the strange burn on Aurelia’s mark which was sitting on my neck.I woke up with the need to get out. To break free and get to Aurelia even though my kids were in the hall and beside me. The second I saw Mia Lu stagger due to exhaustion, I ran and hadn't stopped

    AURELIA~~“You did it, Alpha.” Jeremy’s words echoed in my mind. He was satisfied. I could tell, even though I wasn’t looking at his face, that he was smiling. Together we have extended our spiritual energy and every warrior with his now has enough to fight against Larisa’s warriors. I have been trying to study their behavior and movement since we arrived. They seemed strange and I had also reported everything I noticed to Tamia and Lori through the mind link. The duo promised to start working on breaking Larisa’s hold on the warriors of Black Fur who might still decide to fight us afterward but when we get to that bridge we will cross it.“Stay with me, Alpha. You can’t be distracted now that you have announced yourself to the witch.” Jeremy warned me, becoming a friend faster than I could ever imagine. He had my back.I felt safe with him.“For how long can we keep this going?” I asked Jeremy through the mind link, my eyes on Andrew who has his hand on one of our opponent’s hea

    LARISA’S POV ~~That bastard Jake!He couldn’t do anything right!He failed to save my parents and now he even failed to kill this bitch…I didn’t see this coming and I hated the sight of her. I felt like pulling all my hair out just because she was standing there and wasn’t an illusion. And did that warrior just refer to her as the Luna of Dark Moon Pack? This has to be wrong. I was hallucinating–“Oh, I’m very real, Larisa,” Aurelia said to me like she could hear my thoughts. Yes, I was screaming them in my head but still, she…Argh! Aurelia chuckled, fueling my rage as she said, “For me, it’s good to see you again, Larisa because not only have I taken my rightful place as Raiden’s mate and Luna of this pack but I’m also his wife and the mother of his kids.” Her words ripped me apart, limb by limb. That was my biggest dream. To be everything to Raiden but she had always been in the way and now? Now she was living my dreams–“And of course, that’s the least of my achievements

    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
