AURELIA

~<>~

My chest rose and fell rapidly and tears streamed down my face. I felt useless. Completely useless and broken, I struggled to get a glimpse of Kyle who was surrounded by healers and doctors, collectively restraining him as he kicked vigorously and cried out, horror loud in his voice.

Kyle was experiencing another episode. One of many in the past two days and I was losing my mind.

Thankfully, Katie wasn’t in the hospital to witness this particular one but sadly, my daughter had witnessed more than enough to know that her brother was suffering and the hospital wasn’t helping him.

“What’s taking him so long?” Inara sniveled and I instantly knew she was talking about Alpha Tristan who still hadn’t contacted me in the past two days.

I was becoming anxious and very scared. Seeing Kyle fight with unseen demons was killing me and I couldn’t help but hate myself for putting my son through this torment.

“Perhaps he is taking his time because there is no hope for Kyle,” I mutter

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   89. The Extinct Pack

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~Why are the women in my life stubborn and annoyingly strong? From the oldest, my mom to the youngest, Katie, they find a way to drag me through hell without lifting a finger. “Mom…” I called out again, carrying her unconscious body to the second bed in the room. Aurelia’s eyes were still wide and teary as she watched me place my mom in the bed and Kyle just seemed confused. I wouldn’t blame him. After all, he had just woken up from a long disturbing sleep to see an unfamiliar woman collapse by his bedside. Within a minute, a doctor and a healer stormed into the room as I had already asked them to stay close. It’s safe to say that I knew this would happen. I predicted that something would go wrong because my mom wasn’t fit to use her rusty abilities but she was hell-bent on saving Kyle from the dark dreams had been enduring for many days. And for that, I was grateful. But again, why do the women in my life have to be stubborn and unreasonable? “What happened her

    AURELIA~~“You’re a white wolf?” I didn’t know when those words slipped past my lips. I was experiencing the biggest shock of my life and yes, I called it that despite the crazy shocking experiences I’ve had in my twenty-six years of living.“Partially a white wolf, child,” Iris responded. “My mom was a white wolf who was born in the extinct pack and my father was a member of this pack. My parents met each other during one of the quinquennial pack games. They realized they were destined mates and my mom moved down to dark moon pack to start a family with my father. I’m their only child and instead of giving me one simple wolf, the moon goddess decided to bless me with a mixture of both worlds I originated from, Dark Moon and White shade.” I couldn’t believe my ears. In fact, I didn’t know what to make of her words. Despite my silence, Iris continued speaking, telling me more about a world I didn’t know about, “I was born with black hair but with visible white strands and I’ve ha

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   91. Path of Reconciliation

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~“Gently, Mom.”I whispered, holding her gently and guiding her steps as we walked out of the pack’s hospital. It took two days for my mom to regain the energy she used to heal Kyle’s mind and Kyle was also fully recovered which meant we could all go home. Kyle was in Hazel’s arms and Katie walked hand in hand with Aurelia. I felt at peace knowing that this was the last time any of them would be at the hospital because of me or as a result of my failures. “I hate to be the bearer of bad news but now that Kyle is healthy and discharged from the hospital, Aurelia would begin planning her return to Black Fur Pack. They would be gone, Raiden.” Lex imprinted each word into my mind. My breath caught in my nostrils as his words echoed in my head and knowing that he was right killed me but I didn’t react. Instead, I helped my mom down the sloppy exit of the hospital and sighted Andrew and a few of my men standing beside two cars. Although my home wasn’t exactly far from th

    AURELIA~~Despite being back in the apartment, I still didn’t feel at peace. Yes, I was happy to have my son with me, hale and healthy. It gladdens my heart to see Kyle and Katie playing together again. I was happy my daughter didn’t have to worry and my son didn't have to deal with trauma.But a lot doesn’t seem right. There was a void in the depth of my soul. “Are you yearning to kill Larisa?” Inara asked, trying to understand the void in our soul. She could feel it as well. “I do but that’s not all. I have tons of questions, Inara.” I responded, confusion oozing off my pores. Fortunately, Hazel entered the bedroom, saving me from myself as she uttered, “So when do we start packing?” “Packing?” I asked, blinking my confusion away. “Packing to go home, Aurelia. We have to return, right?” Hazel clarified. I nodded quickly, “Yes, of course. We are going home. Jessica needs to be buried properly and in her homeland.” Mentioning Jessica stirred buried emotions in both Hazel

    ALPHA TRISTAN’S POV~~My cell phone ringtone blared loudly as the device vibrated in my pocket, creating a distraction during an important meeting. My men and the elders of the pack looked at me while I ignored their gaze, taking out the device and saw a familiar name flashing on its screen. I exhaled, thankful that it wasn’t Aurelia calling again. A lump raised in my chest as the thought of her crossed my mind– Fuck! This is exactly why I’ve been ignoring her calls and avoiding speaking to her even though it was killing me. Talking to Aurelia would take me back to the library and I couldn’t afford to be stuck there right now. My pack needed me. Of course, it pained me to know that Kyle was still suffering because of my inability to help as Aurelia asked. I haven’t been able to find any means to help Kyle in the library and I didn’t know if I could tell Aurelia that without breaking her heart–“Stop lying to yourself.” Dolf seethed within me. “You would have found something if y

    AURELIA~~Hazel gave me a stiff smile as she stepped out of the bathroom. I smiled at her, feeling guilty because a part of me assumed she couldn’t wait to return home. I should have given her a specific date, instead of making her wonder when exactly “in a few days” meant. I couldn't deny the truth that my desire to find answers was clouding my sense of decision. Hopefully, I’ll get more answers from Iris tonight.“Let’s move.” Katie sing-song, performing a little dance to show her excitement. I chuckled at my daughter’s happiness and quickly glanced at Kyle, ruffling his hair as I asked, “Are you okay with walking or do you want Mama to carry you in her strong arms?” “I’m fine, Mama. I can walk and my only issue is my stomach.” Kyle responded, rubbing his belly as we all strolled towards the front door.My brows furrowed, “What’s wrong with your belly? Is it aching?” “No, Mama.” Kyle laughed. “It’s grumbling. I’m so so hungry and my tummy wants some delicious food.” I laughe

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~You’ve got to be kidding me!No! They have got to be fucking kidding me!“What did you just say to me?” I growled, losing every restraint I had put on myself just to enjoy dinner with the family I’d be letting go in a few days. If Jake knew what was good for him, he better not repeat those words or tell me he was just trying to pull a prank on me. As if he could read my mind, Jake opened his mouth, only to close it again, like a confused fish. I stepped closer to him, snarling, “Answer me!” “Nolan and Helan… and a few of their men escaped the cell, Alpha,” Jake answered instantly and fluently. I wasn’t surprised that he spoke without stuttering. At least he had that going for him but that didn’t reduce the intensity of the rage swelling within me as his words echoed in my head. “Tell me you don’t mean that, Jake.” Jake shook his head, holding his hand at it shook uncontrollably. “I’m sorry I let you down, Alpha. I was supposed to be on watch and I let you down.

    AURELIA~~I didn’t let my gaze off my kids even though I could sense Raiden’s men around the house. To me, his men were useless and it has become clear to me that Larisa’s parents' escape could only have been possible if someone from the inside let them out. Exactly, there was someone on the inside pulling the string for Larisa and her family. Raiden must have realized this by now, I supposed… but he could only be too livid to use his senses and put two and two together. Tale of a proud and arrogant Alpha.“I don’t like this.” Inara chimed into my mind. She was on high alert even though we were sitting in Raiden’s sitting room. I responded, “I don’t as well. I wish we could just have dinner and leave immediately or after I speak with Iris. I hate being stuck within these walls.” My eyes scanned the living room and I had to force myself to not think about the past for the thousandth time this night. That was what staying in Raiden’s mansion did to me. I hate it here.“I know ho

    Princess Katie Anne~~My feelings remained unchanged. I didn't want to leave my family, but neither did I want to be apart from my mate.However, I would have to sacrifice a few days with my family if that meant I could show Alpha Jarrett that I wasn't one to be messed with. I was no weak princess whom he could terrify.I was Katie Anne Flockhart, daughter of the powerful Aurelia Seer King Flockhart.Of course, I intended to show Alpha Jarrett that, but not before I made Davien mark me, even if I had to tie him down to get it done. I knew he could tell I was on a mission even before we entered the pool house that had become our home for the past three months."I expect a response from my dad by morning, but I better start packing before going to bed." Davien uttered as soon as I closed the main door behind me, telling me he would pack for me as well. "You can go to bed. I will join you as soon as I am done packing."Smooth.I mean, Davien's effort to avoid going to bed with me beca

    DAVIEN~~Taking Katie with me to my family’s territory was like leading a sheep into a lion's den. Katie was a strong woman, but I wouldn’t want to test just how strong she was by endangering her life—the same life that my dad had threatened so many times in the past few months just to have his way.“Aside from that, Katie wouldn’t want to leave her family. She is tied to them,” Dolf said into my mind, agreeing with me.But the other people in the living room didn’t think the same way, and I couldn’t blame them. After all, none of them knew about my dad’s threats.“Can we stop cursing and express objections in a more polite manner?” Queen Aurelia chimed in, looking at Katie and me in particular.I nodded, but before I could speak, King Raiden uttered, raising his brows, “Why are you against Katie going with you? It’s the best solution.”All eyes turned to me, and I could feel my palms dripping with sweat. Do I tell them that my dad claims he can wipe out white wolves—the only clan

    Princess Katie Anne ~~Hell no!Hell no! Hell fucking no!“You don’t have to. This is all a scheme to fish out the rebellious Alphas, but you don’t have to go back there,” I exclaimed, holding Davien’s gaze for a minute before my eyes shifted around the living room. I asked no one in particular, “Right? He doesn’t have to do this, right?”But no one responded.Everyone kept quiet as if they didn’t know what the text from Davien’s dad was all about.I mean, Alpha Jarrett had commanded my mate to return to the Black Fur pack for some unknown reason that I knew wouldn’t be good. I couldn’t let Davien go, not when we were just connecting on a deeper level.Not when my heart beat for him.And definitely not when I knew that being apart would drive my needy wolves crazy. In turn, my wolves would drive me crazier, and not to forget the hormones that have skyrocketed ever since the first time Davien made love to me.“It’s not a death sentence, Katie. Don’t you think you are reacting a litt

    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,
