(Please note: Whenever she's at the club or anywhere else that people don't know her real name, then the chapter would be in Rose's POV as that's the name they know. But it's actually her stage name. I hope this clears any confusion. Have a great day!:D)Aurora's POVI woke up in a dark, damp basement, tied to a chair as I slowly began to regain consciousness. The room is lit by a single candle on a table in front of me. I could make out the tall dark imposing figure standing in front of me. Why did I always seem to be caught in this position?“Where the fuck am I?” My voice sounded groggy, but I ignored it. After years of living an uncomplicated life and these bastards cane into the picture. “Get me out of here right now or—” I bagsn to demand before he cut me off.“You are in my lair.” His voice held a deep baritone as he stepped into the light. “And you've been brought here for a purpose.” Whilst saying this, he looked completely calm and collected, like he was talking about the
Aurora's POVI was currently sitting on the bed, staring at my phone as my finger hovered over Raphael's mobile number.I had decided to call Raphael instead of Maximus because I knew he would be more understanding. Maximus would throw a fit and probably hunt me down.The look they had shared earlier made me realize they could easily find out where I was. How they were able to do that, I didn't know. I finally mustered up the courage to click the dial. Raphael answered on the second ring. “Aurora? Where the hell are you? It's one am in the morning and we are worried sick.” Raphael said quietly and I heard shuffling on the other end as if he was getting out of bed. “I'm sorry, Raphael. Did I wake you?” I spoke softly.“No you didn't. I'm currently hiding in the bathroom. I don't want Max to listen in on our conversation and you calling by this hour means something's up. Is everything okay?”I took in a deep breath and dropped the bomb. “Raphael, I need to tell you something. I won't
Aurora's POV“Now Aurora, are you in or not?”“And what if I said no?”Either way, I'd still be able to do it with or without you. I only thought you might want to work together seeing SD your hatred burns deeply. He caused you pain, you'd be a fool not to take revenge on him.”“Do not talk like you have any idea of what I went through seven years ago. I hate him. I hate him more than you could ever imagine and don't stand here like you understand what pain is. You rather enjoy inflicting pain on others.” I bit back harshly, feeling my chest tighten in anger.“I apologize if I sounded inconsiderate. I would never understand the pain of losing one's child.” Now he just made it worse by reminding me of my failure. My failure as a mother. I couldn't do one thing; protect my own child and she was ripped away from me in cold blood. ““Don't bring that up. Just don't.” I didn't bother to ask how he had known about that. I never wanted to dwell or talk about that topic. Ever. It was one of
“I'm not tearing down my walls for anyone again. You want to know what's inside? CLIMB.” Aurora's POV Today is the day. Today I was so not looking forward to it. Dominic would be coming to the club today and he would be seeing me for the first time in seven years. I secretly couldn't wait for the expression I would see on his face. The club was wildly chaotic. The excessive consumption of alcohol and poor choices, as well as the certainty of future regret, were inevitable outcomes. It was surprisingly busy for a Monday night. We always had many customers on Friday nights. I passed by a scowling Raphael and Maximus. They have been giving me the cold shoulders ever since I arrived. I knew Raphael was only doing it also because of his mate. Whenever I'd ask questions, he'd respond curtly. I found it really funny but laughing would only make matters worse. They'd offered me shelter in my darkest moment and I wasn't about to pay them back by throwing them into my dangerous world. M
Aurora's POV“Uhm, excuse me?” I asked, mustering the fakest innocent look.But he wasn't buying any of it. “You're dead.” He stated bluntly.I raised an eyebrow at him. “Who the fuck are you? Do I look like a ghost to you? I don't even know the fuck you're talking about.” I lied through my teeth, folding my arms across my chest. He stared at my face for a moment. I faintly heard him murmur to himself. “Am I seeing things?” He asked himself. “Yeah, you definitely are. You can't just go around stopping random people and claiming you know them. Sounds like a creep to me.” I scoffed, as I attempted to work away.He sniffed the air. “You're a werewolf.” His words didn't sound like a question, it was a statement.Well I guess he got me there. “Obviously. Do you expect all wolves to know you? I haven't fucking met you in my entire life.” I said smoothly. Lying was a pretty easy thing for me now, seeing that I've been living for the past seven years in a lie. My name, my true identity, eve
Aurora's POVI watched in pure horror as Maximus continued throwing punches after punches at Rostov. But what shocked me the most was Rostov's reaction to everything.He just stood there with a crazed expression on his face but he didn't even attempt to fight back. I didn't know if that made me feel better or worse. If anything, he looked unaffected.“Max, stop!” I yelled as I attempted to get him off of Maximus but he didn't bulge.I looked up at Raphael and gave him a pleading eyes.He walked towards the two and gently touched Max's shoulder and he immediately calmed down. Raphael stepped in between the two, slightly pushing Maximus away.Rostov grinned with bloodied lips as he cleaned invisible dust from his shirt. He folded his arms, “Are you done? Because you hit like a bitch.” He wiped the blood from his mouth and looked at it with a gleeful expression before slipping it into his mouth with a pleased moan.“A vampire?” Maximus said in disbelief as he stared at Rostov with widene
Dominic's POVA lone figure stood in the corner of the room. The afternoon sun gave a perfect view of his perfectly chiseled jaw, he was staring out the window as the sunlight illuminates his face, but despite his phsicsl appearance, his expression was grim and his eyes are cold and unemotional. This expression had never left his face in the past seven years. He'd never smiled or showed any other positive expression over the years. His ruthlessness was what worried the entire pack, he showed no mercy. And he kills out of instinct. “When you are done staring at me, Dominic. You can as well get out.” His deep velvety voice echoed throughout the room, not looking in my direction. “My apologies, your highness. What I came for is rather important.” My voice suddenly gree serious. What I had seen last night had shocked me to the core. If I hadn't made physical contact with her, I would have thought I was hallucinating. But she was real. Very real. “I'm in no mood to have a conversation

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
