Aurora watched the tension creep into the room along with the woman with jet black hair that hung around her shoulders and piecing grey eyes. This must be Lila, Aurora thought. The woman's energy seeped from her. Aurora was unsure how Arden's father felt it. Eli moved closer to Aurora upon the woman's entrance into the room. Aurora instinctively put an arm around her son. The movement caught Lila's eye. Her gaze swung to Aurora and her family as they sat on the couch. Lila's back straightened even more before turning back to Arden. "Why would you think that you have any claim over this pack?" Lila asked Arden. "I left in order to find my mate," Arden answered. "I did not reject the Northern Pack." The animosity that Arden felt towards this woman was hard to keep at bay. But he knew that he was not going to get anywhere with his father by arguing with her. He needed to keep the peace in a sense until he could talk to his father alone. Mason nodded his head. "You and I will talk

The morning sun shone through the curtains in Arden's room. He blinked a couple of times as he tried to recall where he was. The small body next to him moved as Eli began to wake as well. Arden quickly recalled their trip back to the Northern Pack and his father and stepmother's icy reception. Arden pulled his arm out from under Eli. At some point in the night the child nestled himself close to Arden. Aurora was turned towards the two of them and Arden saw that she was still sleeping. Arden looked down and Eli's small face was turned up towards Arden. Eli smiled when Arden's eyes connected with his. "Good morning, Eli," Arden chuckled as he moved to the side of the bed. Eli moved with him and mimicked his motions. Arden and Eli both sat on the edge of the bed. Arden’s feet touched the ground, whereas Eli's swung as he was not quite tall enough to reach the ground like Arden. "Can you show me around our new home?" Eli whispered to Arden. He was curious about the very large house.

Arden was not surprised at his father's brassiness. He expected no less since his departure years before. Arden debated on how best to broach the subject but finally decided that the closest to the truth would be better. "I went in search of my mate, father," Arden answered as he sat in the chair across from Mason. Mason rolled his eyes at his son, "That might be part of the reason but not the whole of it. Why don't you tell me?" Mason had been upset when he had found out that Arden had left the pack abruptly. Mason knew that Arden had been upset about Mason remarrying, but he had not realized how upset it had made Arden. Arden squared his shoulders and regarded his father. He knew that Mason was not up for the Lila discussion yet and decided to stick to the edge of the truth once more. "It was difficult to wath you with another woman besides my mother, yes," Arden said. Mason slowly nodded as he understood. "I am sorry for that son, but I do not believe that your mother would h

"What the hell!?" Thor roared in Arden's mind. They were both upset over the conversation that Arden had just had with his father. There had never been stipulations put on an Alpha such as these for some time. Arden knew that Lila was behind it. His father would not think twice about putting Arden and Aurora in charge before that woman came along. "I need to run," Thor said. Arden agreed. They needed to do something to release the anger before confronting anyone else. Arden stalked towards the woods behind the pack house and deposited his clothes on a nearby rock. Thor wasted no time pushing forward. In a matter of seconds, the pair were running through the forest. The wind whipping at Thor's fur. His paws pounded the earth beneath their feet as he made his way to the center of the forest. Thor finally slowed we he got to the center of the clearing. He drew air into his lungs. The familiar scent of the woods around him helped to calm him slightly. Arden craved Aurora's scent. It

"You are looking for what kind of spell?" Veronica asked Lila. Veronica was starting to become very irritated with Lila's visits. It seemed that Lila believed herself more knowledgeable than she was. Lila's incompetence was beginning to ride on Veronica's nerves. "A spell to make one infertile," Lila knew that Veronica would not help her if she told her the true reason for the spell. "And why, pray tell, would you need a spell like that?" Veronica was no innocent when it came to casting spells, however, she never went out of her way to harm those who had not done her wrong. To those that had done something, let us just say that Veronica did not quite know when to draw the line. "I cannot wrap my head around the idea of having a child. I want to make sure that I do not have children with the current Alpha," Lila said. Veronica had a feeling that it was not the whole truth. "You are a Luna now. Is it not your role to secure his line?" Veronica tried to keep the mocking from her

Arden and Aurora sat in their room for some time going over the pack and pack rules. The first test would be to see how Aurora would handle situations that would be brought to her as a Luna. Arden ran through a few situations and Aurora answered honestly how she would deal with the situation at hand. Faith had offered to take Eli for a walk around the grounds close to the pack house. Arden had linked Rich and asked him to stay close to Aurora's son and mother. Arden did not trust Lila. He was not about to put anything past the woman. "One topic of discussion that does cause some controversy is Omega's. Some pack treat them poorly because they are the lowest rank amongst the packs. How would you handle an Omega wolf being mistreated within your pack?" Arden asked Aurora. Aurora tapped her chin for a moment in concentration. "Well, first I would want to know the whole story for both points of view. It would be unfair to punish either side without the whole story. If it was found t

Lila sat at her acrylic desk looking down at the paper in her hand. It held the scenarios that she would ask Aurora. Lila had no doubt that Arden had tried to prep Aurora as much as possible the day before. Lila chuckled. She had a couple up her sleeve that would no doubt through the want to be Luna off. There was a stern knock at the door. Lila beckoned for them to enter. Aurora and Arden stood in the doorway. Lila knew that Mason and Roger were not far behind as they had asked to sit in as well. “Please,” Lila smiled and extended her hand towards the two chairs that sat opposite if her desk. Aurora kept her gaze on Lila. She did not plan to back down to this woman. Aurora had been in intense customer meetings in her life to know that the first one who looked away lost. Aurora sat down in the chair and heard two sets of heavy feet falls from down the hall. “Hello, my love,” Mason walked into the office and walked around the back to plant a kiss on Lila’s cheek. Lila finally broke

"You did very well," Arden said as he and Aurora came to the top of the staircase above the foyer. Arden drew Aurora to him. He held her for a moment before placing a light kiss on her forehead. "We are not out of the wood yet," Aurora said quietly. If there was anything that she was aware of, it was the fact that werewolves had very good hearing. Aurora pulled Arden further down the hallway to the room that they were currently sharing with Eli. Aurora knocked on the door and Faith opened it from the inside. “Are you finally done, momma?” Eli asked as he got off the large bed and rushed over to the doorway as well. “We are. For now, at least,” Aurora said the last bit under her breath. “Can we go see if we can help in the garden now?” Eli turned and asked Arden. Arden smiled down at the boy and nodded his head. “We have a little time before lunch. Why not?” Arden held the door open enough so that Eli could leave the room between Arden and Aurora. Eli jumped out of the door a

Eli's wolf, Hermes, ran through the forest at top speed. Eli had just received his wolf. The full moon sat high in the sky. Arden had asked if Eli wanted him to run with him, but Eli had kindly rejected the offer. Eli wanted to get to know his wolf on his own. He was currently sixteen years old and was doing well in school. Eli trained everyday with Arden in order to make sure that he was in the best shape before getting his wolf. Hermes’ voice had run through Eli's mind as soon as the clock had struck twelve. Aurora smiled as her son waved to his mother and father before running into the woods to shift for the first time. His father had been right. It hurt like a son of bitch, but it ended quickly, and Eli’s wolf stood tall and howled deeply. Alerting Arden that everything was alright. "Have a good run son," Arden mind linked with Eli. Eli laughed and let his wolf run free. As Hermes rounded the bend in the trees, he suddenly caught a scent. It was the tastiest scent ever. Almost

Charles Brown stood at the front door of the pack house once again. He knocked lightly and when the door opened her was met by Eli. A broad smile appeared on his face. "Charlie Brown!" he exclaimed as he hugged Charles around the waist. Charles had been surprised at the child's actions but patted his back none the less. "Hello, Elijah. It is nice to see you again. Where are your parents?" Charles asked the boy. Eli stepped back and pointed upstairs. Charles's brows knitted together as he walked through the foyer of the pack house. "Hello, Charles. I will see you to the Alpha office while we wait for the Alpha and Luna," Rich, Arden's Beta said as he extended his hand in the direction of the Alpha office. Charles nodded and followed the Beta. As soon as Charles sat down in the large chair on the other side of the desk, the door opened, and Arden and Aurora walked through the doorway. "Apologies for the delay, Charles," Arden said. He glanced back at Aurora quickly and then back at

Aurora walked back into the pack house. She never imagined that she would be able to have another child again after what Lila had done to her. Aurora walked through the pack house in a daze until she got to Eli's room where Arden and Eli were currently playing with Eli's action figures. Arden noticed Aurora's demeanor and stood up. "Are you alright?" Arden asked concerned. Aurora finally looked up at him. A smile spread across her face and tears began to cascade down her face. Arden was unsure how to proceed. Was she okay, was she in denial, what had happened out there with the witches? "Sweetheart, are you okay?" Arden asked again. "I am better than okay. I am wonderful. The witches, they helped us. They said that it was a show of good faith between their coven and our pack and to show how grateful they were for letting them into our territory and taking care of Veronica," Aurora said. "What was?" Arden asked. "They gave me back the ability to have children," Aurora said qui

Aurora woke the next morning. Eli was cuddled to her side. They had fallen asleep to the movie that Eli had put on after they had eaten their dinner. Aurora's hand fell behind her, but Arden was not in bed with them. He must have already woken for the day. Aurora assumed that he had several things to do after yesterday. Aurora's mind went to Lila once more. What a turn of events? Aurora looked down at Eli. His breathing was still even. She slowly and gently pulled her arm out from under his head. She quietly tiptoed towards the bathroom to do her morning rituals. When she opened the door to the bedroom was more, she smiled when she saw that Eli was still sound asleep. She grabbed her long robe and went to the door. She was sure that he would be up soon enough. She would let him stay home from school today, she would be lying if she said it was just so he could rest. She wanted him around as well. Aurora made her way down to the kitchen. It looked as though breakfast had just ended.

Lila woke to a lovely aroma coming from Mason's kitchen. She sat up and let the blanket fall to her waist. She remembered that Mason had offered to let her sleep on the couch. After teleporting so much her body was screaming for rest and Mason must have noticed. She sniffed the air again and followed the smell into the kitchen where she saw Mason standing at the stove cooking dinner. Mason had heard her moving around in the living room. He knew that she would not stay asleep much longer without eating. "Rested?" Mason asked without turning around to look at her. "Yes, thank you," Lila said. She felt unsure what to do with herself. Mason did not exactly make her feel welcomed, but he was not kicking her out either. "Dinner is almost ready if you would like to take a seat," Mason said as if reading her conflicted mind. Lila walked over to the small table and noticed that it as set. "Since when did you cook?" Lila asked Mason to make conversation. "There is actually quite a bit you

Lila had seen Arden take Aurora upstairs. She wasted no time teleporting back to Mason's cabin. She did not want to be around Rich and Roger more than was necessary. As Lila appeared in the center of the room, Mason had a question look on his face, but he also remembered his grandson sitting on the couch next to him. Mason refrained from asking. Lila bent down and looked at Eli. What she saw surprised her. His eyes shone brightly like a wolf. Lila looked up at Mason who did not seem to notice it. Lila looked back and just as clearly, she could see hiseyes, they were back to their usual color. Lila thought maybe she had imagined it. She thought about the curse that had been lifted from him with the death of Veronica. Perhaps that is what she had just witnessed. Suddenly a large man barged through the cabin door. Jack gave Mason an apologetic look, "Sorry but the Alpha would like me to get Eli home," he tried to explain. Mason shook his head and stood up from the couch. "Understoo

Lila teleported Arden and Aurora back to the pack house. She landed them in the center of the foyer. Rich and Roger both looked at each other when they saw the trio. It was time to move. Rich called out to the warriors that he knew he could trust. Seven men all walked forward and stood at attention. "I hope this is enough," Lila said under her breath. She looked out at the seven men including Arden, Rich and Roger. Lila looked at Aurora then. "Would it be safer if you stayed here as well?" Lila asked. Aurora was surprised that it was not dripping with mockery. Aurora noticed that Lila actually looked genuine in her question. "I only ask because it will cause Arden ti be distracted when dealing with the witch," Lila explained. Again, Aurora was shocked by her actions and how she was talking with Aurora. "I go where my mate goes," Aurora said. Lila did not argue with her but instead looked back at the group of men. "We are ready," Rich said to Arden. Arden nodded his head and turne
His Distant Human Mate 93
Lila was in the living room and standing at a pitcher of lemonade. She had asked the maid if she was able to leave the guest room that she was currently occupying. The maid had smiled and said of course. However, as they left the room, Lila noticed that the maid was never more than three steps behind her. Lila scoffed quietly to herself. Lila walked around the house until finally coming to the living room area. Veronica had already been away for a couple of hours. Lila wondered when she would return. Lila turned towards the maid. "I am sorry to ask but would it be too much trouble to get a pitcher of lemonade? Pregnancy cravings," Lila shrugged her shoulders in apology. The maid smiled and shook her head. "No trouble at all. I will see what the kitchen can come up with. Be right back," with that the maid took off down a hall. Lila sat down heavily on the couch and looked around the gothic room. It was dark with not a lot of sunlight coming through. Lila noticed the large firepla

Aurora was sitting on the back patio and looking up at the stars. She had just put Eli to bed but sleep was evading her. Especially after finding out the shadow was still visiting Eli during the night. It made it hard for her to sleep when all she wanted to do was sit outside of his door and wait for the thing to show up so she could take action. Arden and Rich had been in the office most of the evening. They were going over their plans to take out Veronica was they arrived at her home and any issues they might run into. Aurora had grown tired of listening and had made her way outside. From behind her the leaves of the trees moved. The noise caused Aurora to look over her shoulder. As she did so, a movement caught her eye. Auror stood up quickly. She thought she had seen a girl. Not just any girl, but the one who had given her the vile for Veronica. Aurora looked back at the pack house. She knew that she should call someone. Arden and Rich were busy, and Aurora did not know wher
