Aurora’s P.O.V

When I opened my eyes to a room filled with sunlight and pretty things that I could never afford in my life…I knew that what had happened last night hadn’t been a dream at all.

My mind tried to cope with the reality, but somehow, the nagging feeling at the back of my consciousness that kept telling me that this was all a dream, it was still there. Maybe it was some kind of a coping mechanism that I was holding on to? Wouldn’t anyone in my situation do the same?

Sitting up in bed, I looked around at my surroundings once again, taking in the beauty of the luxuries. Surprisingly, it hurt a lot less than what I had expected it would be like. My arm was still in a plaster, but it wasn’t hurting thanks to the painkillers I was given. Even the stitches on my back were nothing more than an ache that itched a bit, but otherwise felt fine.

Wolf medication was stronger than human medication, that much Caroline had already filled me in about. But now that I was able to think past t

    Aurora’s P.O.VRight after Caleb had left, after showing Riley his new room and handing me a bag of clothes that he said were donated items, which I was highly suspicious of, a woman came into my room and placed a large box on my bed, which was tied up with a pretty pink ribbon.“Mrs. Blackburn had requested you to dress in this. She has prepared a special luncheon for you.” The woman gave me a kind smile before she left.A bit hesitant, I went to my bed where she had placed the box, not really sure if I should accept this gift or not. But soon enough, my curiosity got the best of me and I ended up unable to hold myself back from inspecting what was inside the box.Upon opening the box, I came face to face with a beautiful white dress that reached my knees and had large pink flowers printed all over them. The fabric was unbelievably soft and no doubt, hella expensive.I wanted to turn down the dress, too afraid to spoil it, but I also didn’t want to insult Caleb’s mother and their gen

    Aurora’s P.O.V“Here,” Maya held a spoonful of saffron rice to my lips. “Taste this. I made it especially for you today.”Giving her a smile, I graciously accepted the bite and it felt like an explosion of flavours as soon as the rice hit my taste buds. It was buttery, sweet and savoury at the same time. “This is so good!” I told her, covering my mouth so I don’t seem unladylike.“I’m glad you like it!” Malay beamed at me before turning to her husband/mate with a frown. “See? She appreciated my cooking. The two of you ungrateful brats just sit and stuff your faces without saying a word!”“Hey!” Caleb protested. “That’s not fair! I tell you all the time that you’re an amazing cook!”“Do you, now? When? In your dreams?” Maya turned to glare at her son, who simply huffed and went back to eating his lunch.Camden only shook his head with a smile on his face, but didn’t protest.There was all kinds of dishes at the table that I could’ve never dreamt of having before, especially because the

    Aurora’s P.O.V“You don’t have to show me around.” I told Caleb, as we walked side by side down the main hallway. “I mean…we could just go back to my room and you can catch a break?”As per his parent’s ‘suggestion’, Caleb was taking me around on a tour of the pack house, but if I was being honest, I just wanted to lie down and rest. My mind was full of the new information that I had received during the lunch conversation with Caleb’s parents and I needed time to digest all of that.It wasn’t easy to just wake up one day and be told that not only were the creatures of the dark a reality, but that I was now ‘bound’ to one by a Goddess herself.It should’ve been like the fairytale that I had always wanted…but it wasn’t. Because I was afraid that once I opened my eyes, all this would have been a dream and my life would just go back to being a never-ending nightmare.“Not yet, I have a place to show you,” Caleb spoke softly, guiding me towards the back of the house and into the elevator t

    Aurora’s P.O.VA knock sounded at my door around nine o’ clock at night. Hoping that it might be Caleb coming to take me to dinner, I got up from my bed to open the door, a skip to my steps as I made my way across the room. It felt like I finally had something to look forward to after so many years of living in fear. But that tiny hope inside my chest vanished as soon as I saw who was on the other side of the door.Trisha, Laura, Cindy…and Mia. The devil squad were standing outside with a big bouquet of roses and wide grins on their faces. Even before I moved aside to let them in…I knew this wasn’t going to end well.“How are you, love?” Cindy asked with fake sweetness as she handed me the bouquet of white roses. “Don’t worry, we come in peace.”I kept the door open as I took the bouquet and placed it on a nearby table. Forcing a smile, I looked up at them, who were currently a foot taller than me because of their heels. “Thank you.”“Of course!” Laura giggled. “We want to make up fo

    Aurora’s P.O.V“I want to leave.” I told everyone at the dinner table, forcing the words past the lump forming in my throat.Caleb and Caroline exchanged concerned glances for a second before turning to Jade. “Ask the front desk about Aurora’s visitors for today.” Caleb asked, making my heart thrash against my ribcage.“Cindy, Trisha, Laura and Mia.” Jade answered almost immediately, and it once again struck me just how big of a difference we had. Human and the supernatural. It was a bridge that I couldn’t cross easily. They could just reach out with their minds and find out exactly what was happening…a gift I would die to have.Any gift actually…a gift that could help Caleb get stronger. But instead, all I’ve been doing was dragging him down with me.“What did they say to you?” Caroline placed a hand on my shoulder gently. “Did they try to threaten yo-”“No.” I cut her off before she could finish her sentence. “It wasn’t a threat…what they said made perfect sense.”“What made sense?

    Caleb’s P.O.VI didn’t get it. I didn’t understand what could’ve happened to make Aurora think that I wasn’t capable enough to handle my own pack.What Mia had told her hadn’t been wrong, but her words had been coloured with her own insecurities about losing Shane and her loss of faith in me. She hadn’t had the strength to ask me directly, so she had gone to Aurora instead, to try to poison her mind against me. And it had worked.But what I found surprising was the fact that I was disappointed in her just as I was disappointed in myself. Did she truly think I wasn’t capable of handing my pack? The question had haunted me again and again. It had been on my mind ever since I stormed out of the dining room, trying to find an outlet for my anger.It hadn’t helped when I had gone out into the woods for a run in my wolf form; it hadn’t helped when I had taken an ice-cold shower and it bloody hell wasn’t helping now that I was trying to get some rest. I thought we had been making progress…th

    Aurora’s P.O.VIt felt like a fire had been ignited in my entire body, burning me up from the inside out.The instant Caleb’s lips touched mine, my mind exploded into a kaleidoscope of colours and fireworks that I had never thought possible in my entire life. My breath caught in my throat as I froze up for a second, my mind going completely numb…before my brain started working on overdrive.It felt like I’d come alive after being starved for ages…and Caleb was my oasis in the desert.My hands reached for him of their own accord, clutching at his shirt as his hands came up to cup my cheeks, holding me in place as he guided his lips over mine, showing me how it was done. I hadn’t imagined them to be so soft…his lips.They moved over mine with the gentlest of caresses, taking down my inhibitions one by one. It was better than anything I had imagined it to be…and I didn’t want it to stop. I felt myself melt in his arms, felt myself move closer to him of my own accord. It was as if…I could

    Aurora’s P.O.V“Caleb told me what happened yesterday.” Caroline sat on the bed opposite to me, reapplying the bandage on my arm. It was almost healed, that too in a matter of a couple of days, but she insisted that I keep it on for another day or two, so it can heal properly without any permanent bone damage.“Are you going to tell me that it’s just a kiss?” I asked, looking at her beautiful face to see her reaction. “Are you going to tell me to give him another chance as well?”Caleb’s kiss had taken me by surprise; caught me completely off-guard. But if I was being very honest, it had left me breathless and wanting more at the same time…until the realization of what he had stolen had set in. It hadn’t been just a kiss; it had been a dream for me, to kiss the boy I love on my first proper date. However, I had soon realized that there had been another completely different reason for my disappointment in Caleb. And it hadn’t just been because of a stolen first kiss. If Caroline asked

    Aurora’s P.O.VMy heart was pounding in my chest, each beat echoing louder than the last as Caleb’s lips met mine. It started soft, almost hesitant, but quickly turned into something more intense, more consuming. I tangled my fingers in his hair, pulling him closer, needing more. His hands, strong and steady, gripped my waist, then slid up my back, leaving a trail of warmth wherever he touched.Every nerve in my body felt like it was buzzing, my skin tingling and burning under his touch. The kiss deepened, his tongue teasing mine, and I could barely think beyond the rush of sensations flooding me.A soft moan escaped my lips as I pressed myself against him, feeling his warmth and strength. My hands roamed over his shoulders, down his chest, unable to get enough. I was drowning in the taste of him, the feel of him. It was overwhelming, addictive. I’d never felt so alive, so on fire. Caleb’s hand slid under the robe, his fingers grazing my skin, and I shivered, arching into his touch. M

    Caleb’s P.O.VI had no idea what else to do, so I led Aurora back to my room instead of hers. It felt safer this way, like keeping her close would keep her out of harm's reach, at least for the moment. "Here," I said, handing her a towel."You should dry your hair off." I tried to keep my voice steady, though everything felt off, like I was walking a razor-thin line. Aurora took the towel from me without a word and started dabbing at her damp hair."You can head to the bathroom while I find you something to change into," I added, feeling like I had to keep busy, to keep my mind off the fact that I had her in my room. I turned to leave, but just as I opened the door to head out, I heard her voice."Caleb?"I paused, glancing over my shoulder at her. Her eyes locked with mine, the vulnerability in them almost too much to bear."Yeah?" I asked, trying to sound calm."I... I need you," she said, her voice low, but desperate, and it hit me like a punch to the gut. "Please... help me forget

    Aurora’s P.O.VI opened my eyes, gasping for air, but all I could feel was the pressure in my chest, the burning sensation in my lungs as the water surrounded me. I tried to flail my arms, desperate to push myself up, but it was like the water was pulling me deeper. Panic surged through me. I can't breathe, I can't breathe, my mind screamed, the darkness creeping in at the edges of my vision. I didn't know where I was, or if anyone could hear me, or if anyone would find me in time.I could barely make sense of anything, but just as I thought I was about to slip under for good, I felt something—a hand, warm and firm, grabbing mine. Who...? Before I could make sense of it, I was being yanked up, and the water rushed off of my face as my head broke the surface. My body was pulled upward, and with a sharp inhale, I was suddenly hoisted onto the side of the pool. I coughed, sputtering, my body shaking as I tried to steady myself, gasping for air like it was the first time I’d ever had it.

    Aurora’s P.O.VI woke up with a jolt, my body drenched in cold sweat. My heart hammered in my chest, and I was gasping for breath, the dark, suffocating feeling of my nightmare still lingering around me. My eyes darted around, but all I could see was blackness. No light, no sounds—just that endless void. Panic flooded through me, and I fought against the overwhelming sense of being trapped. I couldn’t let it take me again. I couldn’t stay in that place, that dark abyss.I tried to stand, but something was different. My feet met solid ground. Soft, familiar ground. Slowly, I blinked, trying to make sense of it all. I wasn't standing in the dark anymore. I wasn't in the place I had been before. I was... lying down? My hands brushed over the fabric beneath me, and the realization hit me like a punch to the gut.This wasn’t my room.I sat up, confusion clouding my mind. The room around me came into focus, a slow, creeping clarity. It was small, cozy, and had a certain warmth to it, someth

    Caroline’s P.O.VI sat across from Alpha Camden, my mind racing as I tried to piece everything together."But…Alpha Camden, this seems impossible," I began, my voice shaky but determined. "For so long, we couldn't make sense of the whole Lunar Sisters theory. I mean, Aurora’s human. How could she possibly be tied to me in that way, right? There’s no way she could be my Lunar Sister, not with her being... human."Alpha Camden leaned forward, his eyes locked on mine. "But you're starting to think there's something more to it, aren't you?"I nodded slowly, trying to keep my thoughts in order as I spoke. "Yes. At first, I couldn't wrap my head around it. But now, everything we've learned, everything that’s been happening, it might actually make sense." I paused, my voice growing more intense with each word."If it was a witch, someone tied to use magic, then that could explain everything. Maybe that person was connected to Aurora, in some way. And that’s why they targeted her father, hopi

    Caroline’s P.O.VI watched in silence as Alpha Camden stepped forward, his commanding presence filling the room. He gestured toward the door, and in walked a woman—at first glance, she looked like any ordinary middle-aged woman. Her pale skin and platinum blonde hair were unremarkable, but there was something about her, an energy that I couldn't quite place. She had an aura that made me feel unsettled, like she wasn’t quite human.Alpha Camden’s voice broke through my thoughts. “This is Harmona,” he said, his tone respectful.“She’s a witch, and she’s here to help us understand something we’ve found. The symbol we discovered on the body of Aurora’s father.”I glanced at the others, but my eyes kept returning to Harmona. She didn’t speak right away. Instead, she stood there, observing us with an intensity that made me feel like she was weighing each of us, seeing straight through to our core.Finally, she spoke, her voice smooth, almost melodic. “I’ve studied the symbol,” she began, he

    Caroline’s P.O.VAs soon as the car skidded to a stop in front of the pack house, I barely waited for the engine to turn off before I was out, my feet hitting the ground hard and fast. “Hey! Slow down, Care!” Jade shouted after me, his longer strides catching up with mine effortlessly.“Jade, you don’t understand! If he knows—if they know, this is bad. This is so, so bad!” My voice cracked, and I hated the way my panic was bleeding through, but it was impossible to hold it back. My legs felt like jelly, but I didn’t stop moving. I couldn’t.“You’re not going in there alone. I said I’ve got your back, and I meant it.” His voice was steady, calm—so unlike my own frantic rambling. He gripped my arm for just a second to slow me down, but I yanked it free, practically sprinting up the stairs leading to the Alpha’s office.“You don’t get it, Jade!” I snapped over my shoulder. “This isn’t about whether someone has my back. If Alpha Camden knows, if my dad—” My throat tightened, cutting off

    Aurora’s P.O.VI didn’t know how it happened, not really. One moment, Caleb and I were sitting there, our eyes locked, the silence between us loaded with something unspoken but palpable. Then, without a second thought, I leaned in, and his lips met mine. It was warm, electrifying, and utterly intoxicating. My entire world narrowed down to that moment—Caleb's arms wrapping around me, pulling me closer as if he never wanted to let go. The way his hand gently rested against the small of my back sent shivers racing up my spine. For the first time in forever, I felt fearless, as if nothing else mattered. But then, like a cruel interruption, the shrill sound of a phone ringing sliced through the quiet. It felt jarring, almost offensive, in its timing. Caleb and I broke apart, breathless, our gazes darting everywhere except at each other. Jade rose from his seat at the table, muttering something about it being an important call, and stepped away to answer it. The absence of his presence onl

    Aurora’s P.O.VI step forward, my gaze hard, my voice cold. "Step aside," I tell the girls, my tone leaving no room for negotiation."I have nothing to say to you, and I certainly don’t owe you any explanations. So move."But Taylor takes a step toward me, her eyes narrowed. I feel the air shift before she even speaks, the challenge in her eyes obvious."You think you can just walk in here and act like you're above all of us now?" she sneers, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Just because you’ve changed your hair, changed your clothes, doesn’t mean you’ve changed your place."Before I can process what’s happening, she raises her hand and slaps me across the face. The sting is sharp, but I’m too stunned to move for a second. I cradle my cheek in disbelief, my fingers trembling for a moment. Did she really just...?But as I turn to look at the girls, they both seem to have a look of smug satisfaction on their face, like they had just won the lottery. Their confidence in doing something
