Klaus PoVGood thing I paid attention a couple of times that Aurora was nursing injured people. She was not the pack’s nurse, but she was the next best thing to the nurse, and people often came to her when the pack’s nurse was busy of had her hands filled. I made sure she was safely tucked in bed before I locked myself in the study room. Having her come in unannounced defeats the entire purpose of stashing Lisa in the study. I made sure I packed in all the supplies I’d need, and then I got to work.The first thing I did was feed her chrysanthemum tea. A tea made from the chrysanthemum flower. The flower only grows under the moonlight and is special to wolves as it helps accelerates our healing. Two tea cups of chrysanthemum tea and Lisa’s color was already returning back to her. Her pale skin began to tan until it regained its original blushed color. Then I went to work on her face. An ointment with a silky smell returned her lips to its original size.I dabbed a cloth soaked in hot
Lisa PoV“You’ll suffer,” Maximo’s voice resounded in my head.His voice, as always, reeked of hatred and anger. The hatred in his voice clearly reflected in his eyes as he came into view. His veins popped off his body and pulsated as anger flared through him. His eyes slid between that of a wolf’s and that of a man. It was terrifying and unnerving.I didn’t understand. I thought I got away. I thought I ran away from his deathly grip and fled into the forest. How did I end up back there? It has to be an illusion. I would rather die than go back there. I wouldn’t go back. How?“You think you can get away from me, huh?” he sneered as though he’d read my mind, “you think you can escape your fate?”Fear and dread simmered within me, filtering through every part of me until I was shaking with fear. Goosebumps grew and sprouted, and the hair on my body all seemed to become erect all at once. It was unimaginable that I would end up there. I couldn’t believe it. I’d almost lost my life runnin
Lisa PoVWhile I ate, Klaus told me all about Klaus’s tyranny and paranoia which led to the showdown that made Klaus defeat him and oust him as the Alpha.“That’s incredible,” I exclaimed, “so Axel is locked away in a cell?”“He certainly is,” Klaus replied with a bright grin. He seemed proud of himself. Now that my stomach was filled up once again, and I’d regained my strength, my gaze kept flickering between Klaus’s bright, dreamy blue eyes and the dick print in his trousers. His erection had softened, which was disappointing, but I was certain I could make him hard once again.“What’s wrong with me?” I murmured beneath my breath.Something was off about me. And I couldn’t quite place my finger on it. Ever since I saw Klaus’s erection, I couldn’t quite take my mind off it. In fact, I began to see him in a new light.Klaus had been the only one who truly cared for me. Ever since I was little, he was the only who would smile at me, and make me feel better about myself. I remember th
Aurora PoVIt’s funny how life can send you crashing one down to the deepest pit just when one’s soaring high in the clouds a few seconds ago.A few seconds ago, I was absolutely ecstatic. Klaus was Alpha, which made me the Luna. And while Klaus was already performing his Alpha duties, I was keen on starting my Luna duties. The plan was to go round the pack encouraging the pack and trying to get them to look to a better future. But what type of Luna would I be if I abandoned my husband to tend to the pack. So I’d woken up early to prepare Alpha’s favorite meal. I wanted to serve his food on the dining table so he’d come out to eat, but I knew Klaus might stay locked in that study all day without eating.And I decided to take his food to the study. The door was locked but there was a spare key. I expected to find my husband hunched over the table, neck buried in papers and files. But what did I find instead?Klaus was hunched against a girl, and his lips was locked against hers.A pow
Lisa PoVAll I could think about was how right Aurora was.Aurora had always been nice to me. Even more than nice, most times. She played the role of a big-sister and a mother to me on numerous occasion. And all I could ever think to repay her was trying to steal her husband.Even though I didn’t set out to intentionally to cause problems in her marriage, I couldn’t deny that the consequences of my actions would cause just that. So I wasn’t surprised when she pounced on me like an angry feral wolf trying to avenge the death of its mate.I most likely would have done the same too. I was guilty of every allegation she heaved against me, and I calmly allowed her vent her anger on me. For a while I felt like a victim. After all, Klaus had kissed me back, yet, I’m the one taking all the blame. But I knew it was no matter to a hurt wife. And Aurora was definitely hurt.Klaus finally got her off me, and I raced out of the house through the backdoor.“Lisa, wait!” Klaus tried to stop me, but
Klaus PoVI’d never seen Aurora so hurt and angry before. And it broke my heart that I was the cause of it. I never imagined that I could possibly cause Aurora pain. After all, she was the same woman I would happily give my life for. The same woman whom I always placed her happiness above mine.“Please, Aurora,” I tried to calm her down after I’d wrenched Lisa from her arms and she’d turned on me, “please calm down.”“Calm down?” she screeched, “so you can go after her?”“Aurora, please,” I wheezed, “you’re my wife. The woman I love so much. I could never go after another woman. Please, Aurora, you’re carrying our baby. Calm down.”The mention of the baby seemed to do the trick, and Aurora dissolved into tears. It took almost forever with loads of words of assurance of my love to her before she finally sobbing. And when she did, she immediately fell asleep.She’d expended all her energy and fatigue had caught up to her, though I suspected the sleep was induced by emotional stress and
Klaus PoV“What do you think did it?” Babel asked“Or who?” Eda, another member of the patrol guard, chipped in.“Surely a human couldn’t possibly do that,” Babel countered, “only a wolf can.”“But the surface area is not large enough to fit wolf, even a cub,” Eda argued, “a human did this.”“A werewolf in human form would not survive this much carnage,” Babel snorted, “the crash landing was pretty bad.”Babel was right. Lisa shouldn’t haven survived such a fall. Trees were ripped from the ground, and grass was flattened against the ground. It sure was a miracle that she was still alive after all she’d gone through these past couple of months. Her wolf must be one of a kind. Extremely determined to stay alive against all odds.“Alpha,” Babel gently nudged me, “you’ve been silent.”“Is anything wrong, Alpha?” Eda asked.“I’m just worried about what could do this,” I lied, and forced my mind back to the present.I was truly worried. The lying part was what I was worried about. I knew wh
Klaus PoVLike I suspected, I was a prisoner veiled as a guest. Maximo just needs evidence to change my status from guest to prisoner. And it was evident in our running position to Lupo pack.We were all in wolf forms as we ran to Lupo pack. Jack took the lead, I came second, and the guards took the rear. Even if I wanted to escape, it was impossible. I didn’t have time to admire their wolf forms. Rather, I was meditating on my own fate. If Maximo suspects anything, this could very well be the end. I worked on my poker face to keep my face calm and sublime no matter the questions he threw at me. The journey to Lupo pack was short and we morphed back into human form when we crossed the territory.Since the last time I was here, Yellowstone territory had undergone a massive change. The last time I came here, the atmosphere reeked of illegal mining, environmental corruption, pain, suffering, hunger, and death. But now, it was as if the whole place underwent a massive makeover. There we
