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

    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

    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

    AURELIA~~Katie called the terrified kids out and I watched them move forward like spineless chicks. Two boys and a lanky girl. They appeared to be about ten years old each and from the striking resemblance between them and the two useless men I sighted earlier, I could connect the dots. The kids that bullied my kid were Matoe and Leo’s kids. They were just as rotten as their fathers. Of course, the kids weren’t trained properly which was why they chose to bully a girl who was five years younger than them. Shameful! “Are you sure they were the ones that dragged you to the forest and left you thereafter injuring you, Katie?” Raiden asked Katie not because he doubted her but because he was trying to enlighten the pack members that had gathered to witness the punishment the bad kids would receive. Katie nodded, “Yes, Daddy. Thank you for finding them for me.” My daughter was really happy and neither she nor Raiden seemed to care when the crowd gasped in response to Katie calling

    AURELIA~~Today makes it eighty days since the war and eighty days since I failed to wake Raiden up. Today also made it five days since I found a way to stop blaming myself for Raiden’s condition. I had gotten to the stage where I accepted and affirmed that I did all I could to save him and his beating heart was evidence. Heck, I gave him more than half of my own soul and didn’t recover for weeks after the war. Heck, he was the one choosing not to wake up and I was so over blaming myself. “Say something, Lori,” Iris stated, urging Lori who had come into the house to examine Raiden after I cleaned his body and dressed him up.I had given the responsibility of examining Raiden to Lori. After all, at some point, I thought he wasn’t waking up because I was doing something wrong. Lori sighed, her gaze shifting from me to Iris and then to the other people in the room– Andrew, Susanna, Tamia, Seth, Otis, Benji, Jeremy, and Pheobe. She looked at every one of us before she chimed, “This

    AURELIA~~“I thought we would take it all out on him?” Inara etched into my mind as I slowly made my way home after seeing Tristan. She was referring to the anger still very much alive within me. “You have so much left. I suggest we visit the witch tonight–” I stunned myself and Inara when I said, “I think I’d rather stay at home with my family tonight.” Usually, or more accurately, most nights, I visit Larisa’s cell and our at my anger on her. But I didn’t have the will to hear her cry tonight, not that she has suddenly become less deserving of torture but my kids deserve to see me before going to bed tonight. They deserve their mama.“They do, don’t they?” Inara affirmed sadly. I knew my wolf was worried I would break down when I saw Raiden just lying in bed again but I was determined to be with Katie and Kyle even if that meant I had to stare at Raiden– evidence of my failure. A part of my consciousness pumped these words into my mind, “Doesn’t Raiden deserve to feel your p

    ALPHA TRISTAN~~“You should take your leave.” The he-wolf who smelled like a strong gamma seethed at me. “She doesn’t want to see you.”Although I had been standing by the border of Dark Moon Pack for hours, I intended to remain there until I got to see Aurelia. “C’mon, Gamma Seth. You know we mean no harm.” Louis, who had officially resumed his duties as my Beta after I was reinstalled as Alpha, said to the strong Gamma. “This is a peaceful visit.”I simply listened as my Beta negotiated with the Gamma, feeling more like Louis was the Alpha. I would be lying if I said I haven’t felt useless these past few days. After regaining consciousness, I found out that Louis had become more influential, not only in my pack. Obviously. “Your ego is bruised?” Dolf mocked me. But his assumptions weren’t exactly the case. I just couldn’t wait to get back my strength and become myself again. “This isn’t about your intention, Beta Louis. It’s about my Alpha and Luna's wishes.” The Gamma answere

    AURELIA~~Perhaps it was anger or hate, I couldn’t tell. Or maybe it was both. I was angry that Tristan was back to his feet even though I permitted Lori to send some Mender to Black Fur Pack to help him after Beta Louis took the oath, signed the peace treaty, and pleaded for help. I was so angry that my mate had to fall and Tristan got to rise again even though he didn’t deserve it.And for the hate, it was simple– I hated Tristan.Although my hate for Larisa was greater, Tristan wasn’t far from being another Larisa to me–“Talking about that bitch. She has had enough peace, don’t you think? It’s time we pay her another visit.” Inara snarled into my mind, fueling the hatred in my heart. My wolf had taken a hobby in tearing Larisa apart since she had become our prisoner– one that I wasn’t ready to kill just yet. Each time we pay her a visit in her cell, we torture her until death flashes before her eyes, leave her to healers to heal her, and return to start the process all over

    AURELIA~~Life was different now. Before the war, I simply trained to get better and increase our chances of winning, but now, I am the leader of two packs and have more duties than I could have imagined. Life was different but one thing remained constant– my life was difficult.“Are you with me, Luna?” Andrew’s voice called me out of my self-pitying thoughts. I blinked rapidly, composing myself despite my desire to just go home, be with my kids, and–“Do you want to take the day off? I can handle the pack affairs while you recuperate.” Andrew offered and Seth who was sitting on the chair beside him nodded in agreement.But to be honest, I have rested enough. It’s been two months after the war and while a lot still needed to be fixed, the pack was recovering better than I thought it would, thanks to the help I have gotten from both sides– White Shade and Dark Moon.Andrew and Seth have been helping with Dark Moon’s affair and the elders of the White Wolves have been very helpful

    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 Larisa

    AURELIA~~“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 rea

    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

    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
