ALPHA RAIDEN

~<>~

Without warning, my heart tightened, and my breath hitched, causing me to gasp in pain and shock as the wind carried those words of rejection to my ears.

… Reject you, Alpha Raiden Flockhart of the Dark Moon Pack as my mate and Alpha.

Her words of rejection.

I heard them in my soul and I felt the impact in my bones instantly.

Pain coursed through my body and god did I hate the way my soul cried out for losing its other half yet I was furious.

“Are you alright?” Larisa questioned, her voice sounding so far away even though she had been beside me, clinging to me since the party began. “Raid!” She exclaimed out of what I assumed was genuine concern.

However, I snapped ferociously, ignoring Larisa, “How dare she!”

My outburst was triggered by the rage and pain that was rapidly taking over my body and even though it was all Aurelia’s fault, I ended up ruining Larisa’s party when I barked out orders to my warriors, “Bring her to me!”

I didn't have to mention her name

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~She was nowhere to be found. It's been three months of searching for my destined mate who chose to reject me and somehow escaped the room, my mansion, and my pack without notice. My soul was still hurting and my heart still bled on a daily basis even though it's been three months. “It’s high time you give up on finding her, Raiden. She is gone.” Andrew, My Beta and closest friend said to me as he walked up to me in his overflowing dark brown robe. I frowned, glaring at him, “Why would I give up, Drew? You know what’s at stake if I don't find her.” “No, I don’t. Perhaps you should tell me.” Andrew retorted with a shrug. Although this will be the umpteenth time I will be telling him this since the search for Aurelia began three months ago, I still voiced, “No one rejects me, escapes my pack, and goes Scott-free. I have to find her to make an example out of her and make it known that I am not to be disrespected.” Andrew chuckled, stopping dead in his tracks and ve

    AURELIA~~Hiding in plain sight has always been one of my few talents. Although I have always been singled out, I have also perfected the act of blending in and making sure I was not seen by the prying eyes of anyone who could prey on me… And by anyone, I meant everybody that I had come across in the past months, including Alpha Raiden’s men. Alpha Raiden…For someone who doesn't give a shit about me, he was quite persistent to find me. I knew he was sending his men out to every corner and small town so he could trap me again and punish me. That was his style. But I beat him this time. After all, I had survived the harsh world that I found after I escaped the Dark Moon Park. I survived for eight months, moving from one rogue territory to another, from one small dangerous town to another. I discovered that there was a whole different world beyond the territory of Dark Moon Pack where I have been all twenty-one years of existing as my pathetic self. “Move it!” Someone snarled beh

    AURELIA~~Against all odds, I rose again, pushing my legs against the floor of the forest and pushing beyond the limit of any pregnant woman. “That bitch killed June. Don’t let her escape.” An angry masculine voice roared somewhere behind me. Their determination to catch me wasn’t shocking but the energy I suddenly obtained, the energy pumping through my veins as I ran, my hands on my lower belly, was alarming. Although I couldn’t see clearly in the dark forest, I let my legs carry me despite the fact that I kept falling over and over again. Every part of me was hurting, including my belly. The scratches from June’s fingers stung as my beads of sweat trickled over them.June… I killed her.She was the first person I would ever kill and as much as I hated it, her name has been etched in my memory. It would have been easier if she had remained some faceless and nameless woman… but now I knew her name and I would have to live with that for the rest of my life which might not be v

    AURELIA ~~ *FIVE YEARS LATER* “This is just the beginning, Lia. Get your ass up!” Alpha Tristan’s voice echoed through the sparing section of the field. My ringing head and sore muscles protested as I pushed myself off the floor. “Clear your head and focus on your opponent. She won’t go easy on you just because you have fallen a thousand times in the last fifteen minutes.” His voice hit my eardrums again and again, I obeyed him, forcing my gaze to stay focused on the fierce brunette who had used my body as a mop to clean the field floor since we started sparring fifteen minutes ago. The fierce brunette, Jessica, smirked at me, “Listen to the Alpha, Lia. Going easy on you isn’t an option in my cookbook.” “I can only hope killing me during training isn’t in that book of yours as well, Jesi.” I retorted with a plea but amusement flashed through Jessica’s eyes as she threw another punch my way. I dodged. Yet I found my body crashing to the floor again before I could protect

The same one that comes up every five years. Please don’t act like you haven’t seen the publications–” Of course he was about to start scolding me.“I have seen them and I chose to ignore them, Drew. So can we stop talking about it now?” I cut him off before he could even begin.But still, Andrew retorted, “We can’t drop it because you have to be there.”“I don’t have to. You’ll travel down to Black Fur pack with anyone that wants to participate in the games and also represent me. I have got better things to do with my time.” I voiced out the plans I had made in my head. Andrew didn’t seem surprised but he was able to surprise me when he countered me, stopping dead in his tracks, “I won’t be representing you, Alpha Raiden.”He has got to be kidding me? Representing me was his duty as my

    AURELIA~~For a pack that has been thriving on military power and ability, Black Fur looked festive for the first time since I became a member of the pack. The pack hasn’t welcomed anyone into its territory in the past five years… no one except my kids and I.Even for us, it took more than a year after I had my babies for the pack members to fully trust and accept us. But the Pack Games which will be kicking off tomorrow have changed the system of the pack. Ever since Alpha Tristan announced the competition to the pack last week, every pack member has been preparing to be a part of the competition. The warriors, the healers, the kids and even the older wolves have been assigned to carry out various duties and unfortunately for me, I have been assigned to the guest house that Tristan had prepared for all visiting Alphas and their men. I was to welcome them and help them settle in with some other warriors and omegas.Although I was no longer an omega because I had become a warrior,

    ALPHA RAIDEN~~I watched her walk away, chasing after her being my first instinct. That was her.Aurelia. Or was I seeing things again?“You aren’t seeing things. That’s her and I have been trying to tell you since we entered Black Fur Pack. I sensed her but–” My wolf began, his voice spreading disbelief through my system. “But I thought it was a fluke.” I completed my wolf’s statement. Truly, after we drove past the borders of Black Fur Pack, my wolf stirred within me and I felt closer to my mate than I have ever felt in years but this wasn’t the first time I would feel Aurelia like she was beside me even though she had been gone for years. Sensing and craving her was a regular occurrence to me but seeing her in flesh wasn’t. “Aurelia,” I whispered with a shaky voice, my legs moving to catch up with her. Andrew’s hand shot out to grab mine as he said into my mind, “You can’t lose control here, Alpha, and not before the most cunning Alpha in the realm.” I snatched my hand

Somewhere in the corner of my mind, I knew I should be up and getting ready for the games but I remained in my bed, dreading the reality that would slam into me the second I stepped out of bed. He was here, after all.The man who did everything he could to kill me was here in the same pack with me. The pain and hatred that the sight of him arose in me yesterday at the guesthouse kept me up all night even though Inara tried to talk me into relaxing and preparing my mind for the duel I would be participating in today. “I can’t believe you wasted your energy worrying about that prick, Relia. You could have had a good night's sleep and saved your energy for whoever you would be up against in today’s challenge.” Inara complained, stirring in the back of my mind. “You think I want to be like this?” I asked my wolf, hiding my face in my pillow. “I loathe that man, Ina and he tried to kill Katie and

    DAVIEN ~~ Dinner back home was usually quiet, and even if anyone had anything to say, it would be about Damien’s latest stunt and my dad's stressful day. Most times, I skip eating with my family, and they never force me to make an appearance unless we had guests joining us. However, dinner with the royal family was different. The long table in the dining hall was the longest I had ever seen in my entire twenty years of living. I tried to count the number of people in the hall, but I kept losing track and had to start over as the kids moved around.“They are all family?” I whispered to Princess Katie... I mean just Katie as I pull out a chair she led me to and help her get comfortable. “Yes, Davien,” She laughed, saying my name like it was part of her favorite melody. “Everyone in the pack is family, but these are my closest.” “Closest? Seriously?” I asked deadpan. There were almost thirty people in the hall, and they all had a seat at the long table. The royal family got the se

    Princess Katie Anne~~ If anyone was looking at me, he or she wouldn’t hesitate to claim that I had been sitting in silence for many hours. I was beside a man who turned his family away just so he could stay with me.However, I was sitting in everything but silence. Inside, I was anything but silent.The thoughts and voices of two distinct yet similar wolves raced through my mind like whirlwinds. The discussion might not be happening between Davien and me, but it was definitely going on between Zuri and Zoe.It all started when Zuri said to Zoe, sarcasm dripping into my mind as her cool voice bounced off the walls of my thoughts, “You still think he is a wimp? Did you see how he stood up to defend us? I’m beginning to question your decision-making ability.”“Um, you mean I’m dumb?” Zoe asked with disbelief. “And you, who didn’t question a bond, are the smart one?”“Not to brag, but I do believe I should be the decision-maker between us both. You are hotheaded and—”“Don’t even fin

    Alpha Prince Kyle In that instance, time froze, and my body did too, not just because my mate growled into my mind with conviction, “Mate,” but mostly because the conviction Rio had initially turned into confusion as we both stared at the person whose scent invaded my nostrils like never before.“T-that’s impossible.” I stuttered and staggered backward, unable to believe what was happening. “She can’t be my mate. She can’t be our mate, Rio.”I shook my head, pleading with the moon goddess to rescue me from whatever this was.I thought I was ready to find my mate. Well, until this minute. Until my mate turned out to be her—the least expected person.“She’s the only one in the library, Kyle. It’s her, and you know it.” Rio said to me, sounding just as confused as I was, even though we both knew life was about to get difficult.Did I say things happen easily for me? Well, not anymore.The familiar sweet vanilla scent mixed with the welcoming scent of books filled my nostrils again.

    Alpha Prince Kyle’~~I was no spiritual guru, and when I say that, I also mean that I wasn't really into the spiritual stuff that most of my family members enjoy. In fact, all but Katie and my Dad and perhaps Ronald. Also, I wasn’t so into the physical stuff like Katie and my Dad, and again, maybe Ronald—the little man is still juggling between both worlds and trying to find his footing. It was safe to say that I was the weirdest one in my family, but I didn’t feel weird or odd. I fit in. But to me, Davien didn’t fit into his own family. Not a spiritual expert or an energy expert, but I could sense the bad energy and vibe among the four members of that family. “For one, his brother is an idiot. Ma should have let us rip his head off.” Rio hissed.Although I was more of a diplomatic person who loves peace, my wolf can get a whole lot crazy when he is pissed, and Goddess knew he was pissed earlier when the dumbass brother of Katie’s mate tried to say shit about her."Plus, his mo

    DAVIEN~~“Do you want to become wolfless because I can make that happen with a flip of my fingers?” Damien turned white at the five-year-old prince’s threat, and I had to hold back my laughter while Prince Kyle growled at my twin brother. The only reason my parents shunned Damien was because they were still trying to hide the fact that I was wolfless from the royal family. Imagine that. Hiding something from this kind of family? Impossible! However, my parents didn’t know that yet, and I also didn’t want them to discover that I was no longer wolfless. My Dad fell on his knee before the royal family and cried out, “I apologize for my son's shortcomings. Please forgive them, your majesties.” “Your sons? I see just one with a lot of shortcomings, Jarrett, and I can’t forgive anyone who speaks down on me, even if the person is about to be family.” Alpha King Raiden seethed, controlling his rage like a pro. It was then that I realized that I was about to become part of the royal

    DAVIEN~~I still couldn’t believe that I was sitting beside her.Not just because she was the princess, but because she was my mate. The Princess of the realm was my mate, and I was talking to her even though she seemed to be lost in thought at the moment. Should she even be thinking right now? I mean, she just fainted a few hours ago and her health was fragile–“Is that worry I hear in your thought?” Dolf asked rhetorically, causing me to sigh. “What are we going to do, Dolf?” I asked my wolf. The whole idea of having a wolf still seems unreal. “I can tell you, but you have to figure this out yourself,” Dolf responded, proving that he was indeed a wise wolf spirit. “I’m flattered, Davien but I must ask you—do you want this? Do you want Katie as your mate, me as your wolf, and this new life that has been shoved down your throat?”I scoffed audibly, and Princess Katie’s gaze shifted to me. Although she didn’t say anything, I could tell that she had a whole lot to say. Maybe not

    Princess Katie Anne~~I was used to having men in my life fighting for me, but seeing the boy from Black Fur do the same against his brother brought about a different feeling that I wasn’t familiar with. His words echoed in my head: “You do not talk to my mate like that.”I could have sworn I had heard my dad say the exact words, but the effects were different because this time I was the mate and the man speaking those words was mine.“So you want him now.” Zuri chimed with amusement. I would have smiled if I didn’t see Davien’s twin brother rushing to land a hit on him. Energy surged within me, and I pushed myself off the bed, running to stand between Dvaien and his twin brother. Goddess was I fast. My speed had always been incredible despite not having a wolf, but the level I tapped into now was more than the word incredible could describe.I caught Damien’s fist in the air even though my mate had bent over to dodge the impact of his brother’s punch. Damien’s eyes widened, bu

    DAVIEN~~“What the hell have you done now, Davien?”My dad bellowed, and as always, my body began to shake because I knew this was the beginning of another episode of insults and perhaps abuse. No, if he was going to hit me, he would have done that as soon as he stepped into this room. Plus, the fact that Princess Katie was sitting on the bed beside me wouldn’t let my dad act rashly. Also, my mom was unusually quiet; I wanted to believe she was like that because the royal family was standing outside. My brother would have said something if we weren’t in the palace of the famous rulers of our realm. He would have thrown it in my face that he was the perfect son and should have been born first, just like our parents had always said. Damien would have done that if we weren’t in Dark Moon Pack. I knew all of this, yet my body trembled out of habit, fear coursing through my body. “Answer the question, Davien.” My mom pushed for answers, her eyes falling on Princess Katie, who just h

    Princess Katie Anne~~Davien held my gaze, staring at me with disbelief and perhaps confusion. That makes both of us, if I’m being honest. I couldn’t believe he was my mate and still didn’t understand how he could help me or why–Wait a minute. I think I do. I understand.If Davien was my mate, he would be able to share my pain with me, making it bearable, and with Dolf being his wolf, I would have a friend I could depend on. I wasn’t feeling any pain right now, so whatever Davien’s energy was doing to mine was good for me. “I have to see my family,” Davien uttered after staring at me in silence for the longest time.Before anyone could react to his statement, he rose from the lake and stepped out of it, wobbling as he put some space between us. Within a twinkle of an eye, I felt a pull between our bodies, one that was compelling me to go with him. Heck, it was as if it were commanding my body to stick to his body like some leech that couldn’t exist without him.“Of course, you ca
