Kiki JonesI kinda got my first negative and one-star review on this book and to be honest, it made me sad. I lost inspiration for a while but I'm back. Thank you for reading. Love, Kiki.

AURELIA~~“Let her be!” I shouted despite the commotion around me. “Leave her to me.” I recognized them as Raiden’s men but how could I ever leave Jessica to them? “We’ve to take her so you can focus on getting the boy to the healers. There’s no hope for her but your son is still breathing and you need to get treated–” One of Raiden’s men voiced with a bit of frustration and concern.“How many times do I have to tell you that I can fix her? I can fix all of these so just leave us alone.” I barked with tears streaming down my face and I held on to the hope that despite the time that had passed, Inara and I could find a way to make Jessica’s heart start beating again.Yes, there was a fucking hole in the middle of her head and blood was leaking out of her in a way that made my heart constrict. Kyle was unconscious and my back still ached from where the arrows were of course still poking out. No one would rip them out. “Alpha! Alpha!” I heard someone screaming from behind me and th
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 78. Rage And Hatred
AURELIA~~The last two days in Dark Moon pack have been chaotic. The situation in the pack is what can be described as unpeaceful due to many factors. The most important factor is Raiden’s unavailability.Yes, Raiden was still unconscious.I didn’t expect Raiden to stay unconscious for two days. It was expected on Kyle’s part because my son was malnourished and had been deprived of good sleep but since Inara healed Raiden and helped get rid of the silver in his body, I thought he would be awake by now. “I might have left some of the toxic in his body to teach him a lesson,” Inara muttered into my mind, causing my eyes to snap to Raiden who I had never seen in such a peaceful state, not even during our marriage years. “You’re kidding, right?” I queried. “Yes, Relia. I’m not a toxic wolf and since I know you are dying to leave Dark Moon Pack as soon as Kyle is fit to travel and Raiden is up, I wouldn’t do anything to disrupt your plans.” Inara retorted and I sighed. It was good t
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 79. A Deadly Trap
ALPHA RAIDEN~~I didn’t realize what the first set of words that escaped my dry lips meant or perhaps my mind chose to forget them as memories of how Larisa kidnapped my son, shot me, and confessed to every bad thing imaginable, flooded my mind, leaving no room for me to think about how I was saved from the grasp of death.“How long have I been here?” I didn’t hesitate to ask Aurelia as my mind registered the fact that I was in my pack’s hospital. Aurelia rubberneck at me, making me question myself for a second. “Say something, please.’ She blinked rapidly and stuttered, “T-two days. You were out for two days.”Considering the fact that I assumed I’d be dead, I was amazed that I recovered from a silver bullet within two days. How on earth is that possible?My wolf’s gruff voice echoed in my head, confirming that I was truly free from the silver, “She did something to us that day. I could feel it but I can’t explain it.”At that moment, I could only stare at Aurelia with suspicion g
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 80. Underground
AURELIA~~I lied to Raiden and I wasn’t sorry.I couldn’t bring myself to be sorry even though my heart ached to be with my son or at least see Katie for the first time in days. I felt sorry for my kids but my legs didn’t stop moving towards the same place Larisa clawed at my already fragile life. The same place Jess had her last breath.“Are you sure about this?” Even Inara asked me. My wolf knew I was determined to check every corner of the forest. I’ve to find Larisa and skin her alive, bit by fucking bit before anyone else finds her. “I’ve no doubts. Killing that bitch is important and I can’t put anyone else at risk.” I responded the second I arrived in the vicinity. I could feel the strange energy I felt that day radiating, however, I couldn’t see the source. I added, giving the control of my senses to my wolf, “I trust you to help me find her.” “I’ll help but I don’t think we’ll find her here. I can’t sense her.” Inara explained, sniffing the air through my nostrils. “Yo

AURELIA~~My curiosity hung in the air as I let my legs carry me towards the voice. With every step I took, my broken heart fell piece by piece. With every cell I looked into, I hurled, the foul smell irritating me. “How heartless is she really? She clearly had people locked in here.” Inara heaved without hiding her disgust. In spite of her words, my wolf’s curiosity coursed through me and it only intensified when the same soft whimper reached my ears again, “I can smell y-you. It’s really you…” Strangely, a tiny part of me seemed to recognize that voice. The feminine ring sounded familiar but I couldn’t place my finger on it. “Who’re you?” I questioned, taking cautious steps as the space became darker.As my voice echoed, sending waves back to my eardrums, there came no response from the oddly familiar voice but to my surprise, another voice, not a familiar one, cried out, “Please let me out. Please.” I inhaled sharply, ignoring the foul smell around me. Inara’s sense of smell

AURELIA~~“I came here to fetch you,” Andrew responded after he recovered from what I presumed was the smell and the sight of those behind me. “Alpha Raiden asked me to come after you after he realized that you were missing.” Fuck! Raiden knew I wasn’t with Katie. How did he find out?“How did you find me or this place?” I finally asked the question in my subconsciousness. Andrew’s eyes shifted from one dark corner of the basement to another, shock glinting in his eyes. “Raiden told me you’d be around here but I didn’t expect to see a hut or whatever this place is. I’ve never come across this structure. It was never here.” It was clear to me that Andrew was still trying to wrap his mind around the very existence of this place and he further confirmed it when he said, “What the hell is this place?”Iris’s weak voice broke out, beating me to respond, “A dark place Larisa created to keep innocent people… just to use them as leverage.” Andrew’s brows furrowed and he stepped closer,
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 83. Deep Hatred
ALPHA RAIDEN~~I was pacing outside Kyle’s room with Katie in my arms. I could still hear Kyle’s cries and sense my daughter’s fear as she buried her face in the crook of my neck. I didn’t know what was taking Andrew so long to get Aurelia back to the hospital and I was too worried to begin tracing Andrew through the mind link. In fact, My mind was full of nothing but worries. “Please, Dad. Let me stay with Kyle. My presence in his room would help him relax.” Katie whimpered. “But the healer and doctor asked us to leave, Katie. We’ve to stay here until they let us in.” I patted my daughter’s back“But why? Mom always lets me stay beside Kyle when he is ill.” Katie cried out. I didn’t know how to comfort her as he small body shook in my arms and I tried my best to not wince each time her leg hit or move over the bullet wound on my side. If only Aurelia was here–“She’s here,” Lex announced into my mind the second he perceived Aurelia’s presence in the hospital. However, I felt h
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 84. Larisa's POV (8)
LARISA’S POV ~~It’s been three days of no news from Dark Moon Pack. The news I expected to hear the most was the death of Raiden and Aurelia because even though I didn’t shoot her with a silver bullet, the poison I asked my men to soak the arrows in wasn’t exactly curable… I believed Aurelia would die slowly and I’d be able to return home. However, after days of silence from my aide, I was beginning to get impatient. I stared at the phone he and I had exchanged years ago in case of emergencies such as this one, hoping to hear it ring and see his name flash on the screen. “Aahhh…” I screamed. I have been staying in one of my father’s storage houses on the outskirts of the pack. I didn’t see myself spending two nights here not to think of more. I wanted comfort and this place wasn’t giving me that–My raging thoughts were interrupted by the sound of my cell phone ringtone. The sound blared through the small space I had made for myself in the storage and I rushed to pick it up fr

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
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 236. A Dead Child
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
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 233. Hello, My Love
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
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 232. Changing His Fate
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
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 231. Larisa's POV (20)
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
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 230. Fight To Live
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
