FIVE MONTHS LATER…Aurora walked with slight difficulty as she entered the Pack’s cafeteria to have her breakfast. Her two omegas watched her anxiously as they followed right beside her, ready to assist her in case she suddenly needed their help. Aurora rested her hand protectively around her rounded belly which is now big and almost popping. Each step she takes seems to require an extra effort, and she walks slower than usual. Still, she refuses to accept help from her omegas, not even asking them for their hand for added support.The faces of the people inside the cafeteria lighted up when they saw their Luna coming. In the five months of Aurora’s stay here, all the Pack members had grown closer to her and they all fell in love with her. Aurora couldn’t forget what she had felt when they first welcomed her to their pack. At first, Aurora was afraid that no one would like her. She had her own fears and trauma from her previous Pack, and she was initially afraid that the same reject
MEANWHILE AT THE MOONVALLEY PACK…Kissa’s heart was heavy, her expression hard as stone as she stared at Raven’’s full name engraved on the stone. As Kissa stood there with a solemn expression on her face, she blinked away the tears that threatened to come out from the corner of her eyes again. Kissa sighed, and then something tugged at the corner of her lips. “It’s been five months,” Kissa whispered. “But your death still feels fresh to me.”Kissa lowered her head, her hold on the flower basket grew tight as she steeled herself. She’s not going to cry, it’s time to move on. Everybody has already moved on except for her. Kissa softly placed the basket of white tulips, lavenders, and other random flowers that she could only pick for free at the Packhouse Garden without getting punished. Since Kissa is just a lowly omega, she didn’t have enough money to buy Raven flowers, she could just secretly pick them for free from her workplace. Kissa crouched down as she took out one white can
Lorcan has been working non-stop from dawn until midnight with only few hours of sleep, yet his work still seemed to never end. Every day, Beta Jericho would bring him more issues he had to handle, and files that he had to read over. However, Lorcan never felt tired doing his work. In fact, he found solace in his workload. It helped him keep his mind off things and temporarily forget about Raven. Once he is done with his job, everything falls back to him, and reality hits him like a ton of bricks.No matter how tired he is, he couldn’t bring his body to sleep. Whenever he closes his eyes, he is only reminded of Raven. So, there were times he would rather stay the whole night in his office and work for days straight without sleeping. He would only find himself snoring at times after he exhausts his body too much that his brain would just decide to shutdown on its own. Lorcan is aware that he could die if he continues to abuse his body like this. He could feel his health deteriorati
Lorcan’s ears rang as he emptily gazed at the empty spot on the table before him. His diluted eyes remained unmoved as he listened to his parents talk on and on again about Celia.“Lorcan, your mother and I had stayed quiet all this time. Do you think we haven’t noticed how you were pushing everyone away?” Axel questioned Lorcan making his gaze fall to the ground. “You are not the only one who lost someone. All of us were hurt when Raven died.” Axel continued gently, his voice tinged with a touch of vulnerability. “We are here for you. I, your mother, and Celia are trying our best to be strong for you, but you are pushing us away. We want to be there for you, to carry your burden with you, but you have to let us in. You need to be considerate of our feelings, Lorcan, especially for Celia. You don’t know this, but she’s also hurting too. She lost her best friend before she could have asked her for forgiveness, and before she could thank her for saving her life. Raven’s death was also
Lorcan looked like cold water was poured down on him when he heard his father’s words. His expressionless face turned rigid, and his father had his full attention. His head snapped towards him with a wide look in his eyes. “A companion?” Lorcan asked in disbelief. “What are you talking about it?”Lorcan stared at his father like his words were the most stupid thing he had ever heard. He can’t believe that his parents would suggest him to replace Raven. They are practically asking him to forget that Raven existed.“I’m talking about how you should look for a new Luna, Lorcan. This Pack can’t hold off without a Luna any longer. It’s evident that you can’t handle everything on your own. Why don’t you let Celia help you? It’s time for you to think about the Pack’s future.”“I’m not going to take someone else as my Luna, that’s final!” Lorcan yelled, he couldn’t believe that he was having this conversation with his father. Just because Raven is dead, it doesn’t mean it’s right to give wh
Being pregnant with two full-blooded Alphas is no joke especially when the person who made you pregnant is not even there to help you. Luckily for Aurora, she found a big family who truly cared for her. Wherever she goes, people would help her everywhere. They were even more excited about her giving birth than she was. They say that giving birth hurts like hell, but giving birth to two full-blooded Alphas? Aurora doesn’t know what kind of hell is waiting ahead of her. Aurora gave soft caresses to her belly as her omega pushed her wheelchair. Aurora’s belly is growing so fast, and it’s no longer safe for her to walk on legs around anymore so the Pack Doctor suggests that she go around in a wheelchair. Being brought around in a wheelchair made her feel like she was disabled and not pregnant. This is ironic because she used to tell everyone that she was pregnant and not disabled. Now, she had to go around, and the people who heard her say that would see her in a wheelchair. They wou
Sebastian turned his head away when Beta Ethan had already answered for him. His answer was exactly right. It is the reason why he did not tell Aurora about the truth. Sebastian looked at Aurora carefully while her complete attention was on Beta Ethan. Sebastian’s eyes narrowed as he tried to look past her almost serene and unaffected facial expression. He tried to search for any signs of distress or sorrow that would show what she’s really feeling inside, but he couldn’t see anything through her. A flicker of confusion danced across Sebastian’s features as he struggled to understand her lack of emotional response. She just found out that her mate is going to replace her with someone else, doesn’t she feel anything about that?Sebastian’s gaze lingered on Aurora longer than he had wanted. Before he could take back his gaze, Aurora had already caught him staring at her.She raised an eyebrow at him, to question his weird behavior. Aurora wanted her older brother to explain for himse
FIVE YEARS LATER…With Sebastian as the Alpha and Aurora as the Luna, the Nightshade Pack continued to grow through the years with Aurora’s experience and sound leadership. Although Nightshade Pack used to be a bustling place and a highly developed Pack, it all changed after the Rogue attack. The Nightshade Pack turned into an overlooked village nestled in a lush forest and the Pack has been struggling to rise to power ever since. Now, Nightshade Pack had a remarkable transformation. In just five years, Raven is able to turn the Pack around, turning it into a thriving Pack Their economy flourished, and the lives of the Pack members turned better than the way they used to before. With this, the Nightshade Pack’s reputation had changed also. It’s no longer recognized as an unfortunate Pack that experienced downfall, but it is now recognized again as a powerful Pack that is able to turn the tides around. The development of the Nightshade Pack is considered a miracle. Everyone had lo
