Chasing His Betrayed Luna 93. Alpha Tristan's POV (5)
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
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 94. My Dad's Mom
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.
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 96. In Your Heart
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
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 97. Light of the Realm
AURELIA~~“We can’t be honest with her. You’ve to come up with a lie.” Inara chimed her argument into my head as I fought a mental battle in order to decide the path I would be taking with Iris’s words echoing in my mind as a reminder of my situation.“But for how long would I keep lying? Think about it, Ina.” I countered my wolf despite the battle going on within me. “Iris seems like the only person who can help me get answers. She’s partially like us and she can lead us home, help us get better with our abilities, maybe, I can know my parents.”“They are dead, Relia. What’s the point of digging up the dead past? Whereas we have Tristan to do more than Iris could ever do. He brought us this far.” Inara argued convincingly. I frowned, annoyance zapping through me. “I thought you were on my side this time. You motivated me to find answers.” “What’s wrong with you! I’m always on your side and yes, I support getting answers but not revealing who we are. Think about the risk we’d be
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 98. Cobra's Tail
ALPHA RAIDEN~~After what seemed like a split second but most definitely not, I arrived in front of the one place I knew Nolan and his wife would be hiding… the one place no one else would think to check. The Wellington’s mansion. Nolan’s home. The idea could sound silly to anyone and perhaps that was why I didn’t inform my men about my suspicions, not even when I forcefully kicked down the front door. After Larisa played me, I was certain Nolan would try to as well but unfortunately for him, I was prepared. Alone, yes but still prepared to face whatever was thrown at me. On clue, Lex sniffed the house as I stepped inside and he instantly announced, “They are here. I knew it!” They must take me for a fool… “At least this one time you aren’t stupid.” Lex mocked despite the seriousness of the moment. For goddess’s sake, I could be walking into a trap that would kill me.Lex scoffed, “Like Nolan could kill you. That would be an insult.” “Well quit chitchatting, we’ve got to f
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 99. Now or Never
AURELIA~~I was invited to the public execution of Larisa’s parents but since the scene wouldn’t be appropriate for kids, I decided to stay back at the apartment and pack in preparation for the journey back home.Hazel was helping me pack while Katie and Kyle played a game in the corner of the room. “What do you think he’d do to them?” Hazel asked me, folding her clothes into a duffel bag, Instantly, I figured she was talking about how Raiden would handle Larisa’s parents. I wasn’t certain but after Ronald’s death and Iris’s near-death experience, I knew Raiden wouldn’t go easy on Larisa’s parents. Was I okay with their possible death? Yes, I was. Larisa was okay with killing my friend and almost killing my son and me, so why should I care about what happens to her crazy parents?“I hope he kills them. The world doesn’t need people like them and Larisa deserves to feel the pain that comes with losing someone she loves. She damaged so many families.” I said to Hazel. But she sn
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 100. Bad To You
AURELIA~~“Come sit with me,” I muttered to the twins, feeling the weight of the past crushing my mind as I let the painful memories flow.“Are you sure you want to tell them?” Inara asked me, worried about the same thing I have been worried about– Protecting the kids from the darkness I experienced in the past. “If not all, they still need to know some. I can’t keep lying to them. Especially Katie. She already thinks Raiden is her Hero.” I snorted, feeling a bit jealous. Was I doing this because I was jealous of the relationship the kids were building with Raiden? Maybe. Despite the few good he had done during our forced stay, I still didn’t want him to steal my kids from me. The Raiden I married always had an ulterior motive. I was finding it difficult to believe that he had really changed. I moved some of the clothes on the bed to another side, creating a place for me and the twins to sit. Katie had stopped crying but her eyes were wet and Kyle stared at me with interest as

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
Chasing His Betrayed Luna 237. Back To Life
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
