Don't forget to leave your thoughts! I'll answer as much as I can~
Aurora's POV “Are you even listening to me?” Zane exclaimed, making me snap my head to him. “Were you saying something?” I asked sheepishly. I had been caught up in my thoughts that I didn't realize he was talking to me. Zane stared at me for a moment. He plopped down beside me on the couch. This was the first time I've ever been to his house. When I asked for his mother he said she had gone to the pack house to hang out with her friends. I just couldn't stay alone at home. Flashes of last night kept swirling in my head. I needed a place to think and breathe properly. When I was finally done with my chores at Kaizen's house, I left the house as fast as I could. “Something is wrong. Tell me.” Zane demanded looking very serious. I knew what was going to happen if I told him what Kaizen did but I was too hurt to care. Maybe it would make me feel better if someone else hurt him? Pathetic move, I know. “It's Kaizen.” I confessed, ducking my head down as my emotions threatened to resu
Aurora's POV Zane let out a hiss as I applied methylated spirit to the deep gash on his back. “Easy,” He grunted out, feeling the burn on his skin. At this point I was trying to hide the tears in my eyes from him. He's going through all of this because of me. It was all my fault. Words couldn't explain the guilt I felt. Kaizen and Zane fought so viciously that I thought they were going to kill each other. They had ripped each other apart and created multiple bruises on their body. The fight would have continued if the warriors hadn't intervened and pulled them apart. Ten men. That's right, ten men were able to rip them apart from each other. Five of them held Zane down while the other five held Kaizen down. They didn't get away without bites though. The office was a mess with dents on the walls and files scattered all around the floor. Gianna and Scarlett went to call the pack doctor to properly treat his wound. But there was so much blood that I could wait to clean it up for him
Aurora's POV “Kaizen.” I breathed out, looking at him in shock. My body pricked in awareness as his hand rubbed my bare stomach. “I-I need to go.” I stuttered, trying to get out from his grip. He tightened his hold on me as he looked at me emotionlessly. “Why are you here?” He asked huskily, still stroking my skin. Does he know what he was doing to me? If yes, then he was clearly enjoying torturing me. “I c-came to check on you. I didn't want to come, but aunt Gianna insisted. I'll take my leave now. I knew this was a bad idea.” I started backing away from him, but my back hit the door. “No.” He stated curtly, looking at me without emotions. “No?” I retorted as I felt anger taking over my body. Kaizen proceeded to lock the door. “Let me out this minute, you bastard!” I yelled, trying to open the door but the keys were clutched tightly in his hand. I glared at him so heatedly, hoping it would burn holes through his chest. “I'm not doing this right now with you, Kaizen. I d
Kaizen's POV I let out a frustrated groan as the harsh rays of sunlight hit my face. Why the fuck did I forget to close the curtains before going to bed? Right on cue, a body squirmed underneath me making me freeze. I could see white curls of hair through my peripheral vision. Fuck fuck fuck. Let it not be what I was thinking. I whipped my head to the bed and my assumptions were correct. Aurora was truly here. I hadn't imagined the night we had together. Gods, I fucked this up again, didn't I? What the fuck happened to trying to resist her? How had I let things escalate so quickly? I should have just let her leave when she wanted to, I wouldn't be in this situation right now. I was obviously thinking with my dick. I looked down at her sleeping form and my face involuntarily softened at the sight. Goddess, she was so beautiful. Too beautiful. And too good for me. What good did I do to deserve her? Knowing myself, I had never done any good in my life. And now, the only source of lig
Aurora's POV “It was a mistake. We were both in a moment of weakness and it just happened. I can assure you that it's not going to repeat itself again.” As soon as those words were out of his lips, I felt my heart break into a thousand pieces as I staggered back. Gianna's attention immediately snapped to mine and her eyes widened as she looked at me with guilt. Noticing her distraction, Kaizen turned back and met my gaze. For a moment, I thought I saw shock and guilt cloud his face as looked at me, but it was immediately replaced with a cold and emotionless expression I knew too well. Different thoughts begin to cloud my head as tears welled in my eyes. Did he really mean that? Does he think what we did last night was a mistake? How had I managed to get myself into this situation with him again? Why was he talking about our sex life to his aunt? I felt beyond embarrassed and insulted. Why does he keep hurting me again and again? And like the fool I was, I always let him in every
Kaizen's POV Red lights flood the thick air around the club. The club was filled with sweaty bodies, grinding against each other as they danced. They cowered away from me as I walked inside. My men immediately came to my side and led us to the meeting room. As soon as they opened the door to the room, a scowl immediately took over my face as I saw the bastard I was to have a meeting with. He also didn't look too pleased to see me and I'd be glad to wipe off that expression on his face. I narrowed my eyes at him, and smirked as I saw his expression drop as fear flashed through his eyes. I took a seat at the head of the table and the rest of the men sat down. They knew the rules; when the boss arrives, you stand while he sits. Aside from being the Alpha, I was also a businessman. I have built seven construction companies from scratch and owned several chains of restaurants, hotels and clubs all over the world. As a result of this, I was the most sought after CEO and gained lots
Kaizen's POV A loud bang echoed through the room as I shot the bastard between the eyes. The room was soundproofed so not a single sound could be heard from the outside. My mouth thinned in irritation as I saw his blood splatter on the wall and his eyes rolled to the back of his head. He lifeless eyes stared unblinking at me in pure horror. I chuckled internally, I would be his worst nightmare even in death. “Clean this shit up and call for someone to paint the walls.” I ordered my men as I stepped over his dead body and walked out of the room. My body was still buzzing with adrenaline. I needed a drink. I walked over to the VIP section after ordering a drink. I went to the very isolated corner, knowing if I would be disturbed if I didn't. I needed a space to think and I clearly couldn't do that in my house, knowing Aurora was there. I could never think properly with her presence. She was so infuriating and she doesn't even know it. My fist tightened around the glass of scotch a
Kaizen's POV I punched the wall and I roared in frustration as I stood alone in the dark street. I let out a growl from my chest as I stood in the middle of the road. Leo had managed to escape. How had he disappeared so fast? A lycan has faster speed than a werewolf, so it's a shock how he had managed to escape. Something wasn't adding up. There was definitely something wrong. The only way about this was that the boy was getting help from a high power. Now the real question was, who could it be? Who was helping Leo in trying to take Aurora away from me? I tugged my hair in frustration. I hated having answers to my questions. I took out my phone from my pants pocket and dialed Sébastien's number. He picked up after the second ring. “Kaizen?” His voice sounded confused. He knew I never called. I always preferred the old way of communication which was mindlinking. But seeing as I was out of the pack, the connection wouldn't go through. “Sébastien.” I started calmly. “Meer me in
SIX MONTHS LATERAurora's POVI woke up with a queasy feeling in the pit of my stomach as the urge to vomit hit me hard. Kaizen's body was pressed flush against my back as his arms draped lazily over me. I tried to ignore it and snuggle more into the warm body next to me.Just as I closed my eyes to go back to sleep, the urge to puke got so strong that I couldn't hold it in anymore. I immediately scrambled out of the bed and made a beeline into the bathroom where I hurled my guts. I tried to control my breathing as I vomited every content I ate last night. This has been going on for a while now and there was no other explanation to it than what I was thinking. “Fuck,” I groaned out, running my hands through my messy blonde hair.“Rory?” Kaizen's voice called out from the door, before I could give him a response another wave of nausea hit me suddenly and I hauled my tired ass into the water closet, puking my guts out.I dry heaved and felt a warm hand softly stroking my back. Kaizen f
Aurora's POV“You probably think I'm a horrible person,” Lucious whispered into my ear and I suddenly felt the urge to curl away from him in disgust. Thinking of everything he has done for power was enough to make me haul right there. I thought Kaizen was a monster but Lucious' was the real cold hearted monster.I felt something warm on my ear and realized Luscious' mouth was on my ear, biting and sucking on my earlobe. I fought against his grip but he was more stronger than me.“Get your fucking hands off her.” Kaizen gritted out. “Or what?” Lucious taunted with a smirk. “You and I know you're completely defenseless and powerless when she's here.” He said, pointing at a grinning Saffra. “So, I guess I'm free to do whatever I want, sí? I could decide to undress her...” He tugged at my dress. “Or I could even fuck her so hard right in front of you and you will watch in pain knowing you can do nothing about it. Would you want that, Rory?” He proceeded to run his filthy hands on my skin
Kaizen's POVA cold chill ran down my spine at the mention of her name. It was as if I could already feel her presence before even seeing her. She was here, flesh and blood. After so many decades, after ruining my life and turning me into a monster. This was my chance. The opportunity I'd always been waiting for has come right in front of me and I'll be damned to let this go in vain. It was time to get my revenge, time to revive myself, time to become a new man who doesn't have to kill to feel satisfied.And the only way to go about that is if she dies. “ Saffra is known to be the most wicked witch in our coven. She misuses her powers and abilities. Kills the innocent, binds them by her curse so they would become her puppet. The curse would only be broken if the one who placed it on you dies. Once she breathes her last breath, the chains of the curse would be broken.” Those were the exact words I was told by a witch.No matter how hard I had tried, I never got my hands on her but I k
Aurora's POVOur moment of pure Bliss was abruptly cut short as the demon charged towards us with inhumane speed. Without a second thought, Kaizen's body started to shift, his bones cracking as his muscles bulged and his black fur sprouted. I watched in awe and fear as he transformed into his beast, a fierce and powerful creature.The demon didn't hesitate, launching itself at my mate with claws extended. But Kaizen was more faster and agile, dodging the attack and striking back with his own claws. The demon snarled in frustration, its red eyes glowing with anger.The fight was brutal and intense, the demon's strength matched by Kaizen's ferocity. The ground shook with the force of their blows, furniture and decorations crashing to the floor.Despite the demon's otherworldly abilities, Kaizen was more stronger and determined. He fought with all his might, using his teeth and claws to rip into the demon's flesh. Blood spattered across the room, mixing with broken glass and shattered w
Aurora's POV “P-please don't hurt him, he has done nothing wrong! Leave him alone, please!”“This has always been his fate, little Aurora. Your mate wronged me and it's time for payback.” A raven haired woman said with a sick smile.“Dont, please! NO!” Series of loud howls pierced into the air and i jumped awake as my body body completely covered in sweat. Kaizen immediately wrapped his arms around my sweaty body. “It's fine, baby. You're fine. It was just a dream, okay?”“N-no, i don't think so... It felt so real. I could still hear your screams.” I said, my body trembling with fear. My eyes watered with tears as I looked up at him. “S-she killed you... In the dream— I can't lose you. N-never.” “Nothing will happen to me, okay? Relax. Take deep breaths. You're going to be fine. Come on, go back to bed.” He said in a soothing voice as he ran his hands through my wet hair.“Are you sure?” I murmured into his chest, my mind still replaying the horrifying nightmare. It felt so real. I
Aurora's POV“Are you okay?” I asked Kaizen as he came back to the room after going to the balcony to pick his call.He sighed. “Not really. News has gotten to me that they would be attacking in two days time. And I have a feeling it's going to be brutal.” He ran his hands through his dark matt of hair. The moon glowed around his skin and I couldn't help but worship the sign of him.I immediately snapped out of it as there were more pressing matters on ground right now. “Do you think we can trust him?” I said, finally voicing out my worries. “Rostov? You have nothing to worry about, little one. I believe we can trust him in this. Just trust me, okay?”“How can you say that? You barely even know him. He could still be working for Lucious for all we know. I just hope we aren't making a bad decision once more, Kaizen. I don't want to lose you.” I said softly, rubbing my palm on his jaw.He gently took my hand and placed a kiss on my open palm. “You're not going to lose me, baby. And I d
Rostov's POVThree days laterThe sheer shock on Lucious'face was so fucking obvious as I walked into his chambers. He dropped the glass of wine he was currently sipping as he acknowledged my presence. “They let you out?” I could see that he immediately regretted the words as soon as they were out of his mouth.I feigned confusion as I casually walked over to him and poured myself a glass of red wine. “What are you talking about? I was never caught, do you think that lowly of me?” I said with a chuckle, barely controlling myself from storming over to him and choking the life out of him.I couldn't believe this was the same man. The sane man I called a brother from another mother, the sane man who I trusted with my whole life, he has been lying and deceiving me for the better days of my life. How could I have been so fucking dumb?I was really starting to believe Kaizen's words about me being Lucious' puppet, who he uses to do his dirty jobs. I was so fucking foolish and restarted to h
I walked into the basement with Zane trailing right behind me. After telling him everything I've never told anyone, I could say there was a noticable difference in our relationship.Zane was a man I cared for deeply, his mother included. When I had 'episodes' with my deadbeat parents, he was always there. Understood me and listen to my worries like a brother would. At first he was disappointed that I would keep such a huge secret from him for so many decades. But that was immediately replaced with immense anger and rage.It felt... refreshing to finally let people in. I had been taught that telling your problems to others made you weak. I lived with that mentality for the past 300 years of my life. Never opening up to someone, while letting it eat at me and pretend I was fine.We finally stood at the middle of the basement where Rostov was tied up and badly beaten and bruised. I felt rage bubble within me as I looked at me, it took all will power not to snap his fucking neck and call
“Scarlett?” I asked in surprise as I looked at her. She looked so different and even more beautiful than I remembered. She suddenly engulfed me in a bone crushing hug. “When Zane told me, I couldn't believe it. I had to come see for myself. It still feels like I'm dreaming. I missed you so much. We all did.” She said with a sniffle.“I missed you all too. If I could change things I would have done that a long time ago. I was deceived. Deceived info thinking that my mate was my murderer.”She gasped, pulling away from me. “What? Are you serious?” I nodded my head solemnly. “Sadly, I am. I lived seven years of my life hating my own mate, plotting for revenge without even knowing the actual truth. I did this all for nothing, only to find out that Kaizen was impersonated. They made me believe he killed me by impersonating his face.” My anger grew as I explained to her. I was in doubt before, but I was starting to believe this was all a plot.And I couldn't help but suspect Lucious was i
