Neon's perspectiveI swept everything off my desk, flipped the table in the study room and screamed.This isn’t what I wanted but I couldn’t stop it from happening. Aria wasn’t wrong that I was afraid of losing my title as Alpha, my father lost it before he was killed by rogues.I didn’t want to end up the way he did, that’s why I thought I could handle the situation.But things were getting out of hand, and I almost fought with my Beta, which was wrong, Silas has been beside me for a long, and I know I shouldn’t have done that to him.It just happened at the wrong time. I was already pissed after the conversation I had with Aria and his words just happened to ruin everything.I have to explain a few things to Aria and make her see things the way I do. I don’t want her to leave me, I don’t think I would be able to survive it if she leaves.I slid on the ground slowly and held my hands around my legs. I wanted to see Aria, but I needed some time before I went to her. Maybe she would hav
Aria's perspective“I love you, mate.” That was when I opened my eyes and saw Neon leaving the bed. I heard all that he said to me but I didn’t respond, I pretended like I didn’t hear him.He walked to his wardrobe to pick up a jacket. He was about to leave when he switched the lights off.If I didn’t say anything, he was going to leave the house. If he leaves the house at this time, he is probably up to something, and it has to involve violence.“Where are you going, Neon?”He wasn’t going to get his dinner, he wasn’t preparing for bed either, everything he had just said wasn’t it. He was lying to me, he was heading somewhere else, which he didn’t want to say.It couldn’t be any place good.“I thought you needed some time. I was going to stay away for a while.”I scoffed, and sat upright, with my head on the headboard and my hands folded.“So?”“I was going for a hunt.” He admitted and stared at his feet for a moment before he looked up and met my gaze.“Hunt?”He hummed.I lay on the
Aria's perspectiveWhen I woke up, Neon wasn’t in the room with me but there was breakfast on the bedside table and a note.I entangled myself from the bedsheets and picked up the note.‘I have an important meeting, I will send Silas to come get you by 7 pm. I made you breakfast, make sure you eat. Neon.’A smile touched my lips as I read the note. I dropped them beside the breakfast that was covered on the table.I wanted to freshen up before I ate breakfast, so I left the bed and went to the bathroom.I didn’t leave the room after breakfast, I decided to use the paint Silas brought, I took it to the balcony, there was a straight door in Noen’s bedroom, that led to the balcony.I sat there and painted.I heard a knock which distracted my thoughts from the paintings, and decided to go get it.I wasn’t expecting anyone and Neon won’t be back home by this time and he’s never the type that knocks.I opened the door, holding it with my hand, and glanced sideways, my eyes fell on Diana. She
Aria's perspective“Aria, I’m here,” Silas announced from the door, I was putting on my earrings, and I was already done dressing up. I wore an evening dress with a strap hand and a flat shoe.“I will be out in a second!” I yelled from the inside, fixed my bracelet on my wrist and packed my hair.I glanced at the mirror, and smiled, satisfied with my looks.I walked to the door and opened it. Silas was standing outside with his hands in his pocket. He waved at me and dropped his hands awkwardly. He did everything to avoid meeting my gaze.“We should leave, I have gotten the car ready.” He cleared his throat, I nodded and followed him out. The guards at the door bowed at Silas, they opened the front door and Silas stepped out.They lowered their head when they saw me behind him, I’d wonder if they ever talked, I have never heard them say a word.“Don’t they talk?” I asked Silas when we were out of the house and was standing by the Bentley car.“They do but...” He sucked his teeth and he
Neon's perspectiveOur hands were intertwined as we walked towards where I kept a mattress for us to sit, I brought dinner as well. I asked Silas to order them because I didn’t have enough time to prepare them when I left the office, I was already running late.Aria looked so beautiful, and she accepted to be my Luna. I couldn’t change that she’s human, the only thing I could do was protect her.Silas was right when he said I should decide on what to do, I can’t reject her or send her away from me.I want Aria close to me. I don’t think I would be able to live without her.“This is so beautiful, Neon.” We stood in front of the mattress and I held both hands.“Not as beautiful as you,” I responded. Her cheeks turned red, I let my fingers graze on her cheeks and smiled.“Let’s eat.” I made a gesture for us to sit.“So is it true that the Moon Goddess lives here?” She asked while we sat down.I shook my head. “I doubt that.”We laughed. “I think the Moon Goddess is everywhere watching us,
Aria's perspectiveI took to my heels the moment Neon said I should run. I couldn’t run faster with my shoes so I took them off, and continued running.I glanced back if Neon was behind me, but he was, and there was a large black wolf with red eyes behind me.I screamed and ran as if my life depended on it.I had no idea where I was heading too, I just ran and was too scared to look back. My feet kicked against a tree with a branch on the ground, my eyes didn’t catch it on time, and my feet had already had contact with it before I noticed.I fell face down on the ground, I groaned and tried to lift myself but it pounced in front of me.“Ahh!” I shouted, and his sharp teeth ripped some parts of my dress. I tried to run but my leg was stuck on the branch.My heartbeat skyrocketed in my chest. There was no way I could escape him.He was about to bite my arm, and my eyes were shut hoping for the worst while I secretly prayed for Neon to come to my rescue.He bit my arm, and I let out a pie
Aria's perspectiveNeon carried me from the car to the bedroom in his arms. He dropped me on the bed and grabbed his phone from the table.He turned his back to me, with the phone pressed against his ear. “Call the pack doctor, he has to be here in the next minute. He shouldn’t keep me waiting!” He growled on the phone.I helped myself to sit up on the bed, a hand wrapped around the wounded arm. “Won’t I get infected? Will I turn into a werewolf?” I blurt out my fears.Neon turned whilst holding the phone, and he placed a hand on the speakers.“You’ll be fine honey, the bite won’t turn you into a werewolf.” He tried to smile and assured me that I was gonna be fine, but he failed to do it. I couldn’t tell he was worried.“Hello, give the pack doctor the phone, he isn’t close? Then tell him to hurry to my mansion immediately, I will give him a minute.” He snarled and hung up on the phone. He came to bed and sat beside me. He took my hand and kissed them.“You’ll be fine.” He touched my h
Neon's perspectiveI watched Aria sleep, and couldn’t stop blaming myself for what happened. I wanted to take her out of the house and this happened.What happened to the security in the pack? What has Silas been doing? How were they able to find us?It was just a few of the guards that were aware of our date tonight.And Aria got hurt, the thoughts hurt me more than anything.I untangled myself from her in the early hours of the morning, I couldn’t sleep at night, and I was bothered by my thoughts and my suspicions.I have to speak to Silas when he comes, and my Gemma as well. We need to have a meeting and see if my suspicions are right.I headed out of the room to the study room and sat on my desk, I switched the lights on.I went through the map of my pack, checking the borders if there was something I was missing, that I hadn’t figured out yet.The door opened slowly after a short knock.“Alpha, thought I could find you here.” Diana's voice made me lift my head.I stared at her as
Aria's perspectiveI didn’t know what was going on, and why was Diana missing but I was too tired to get up from the bed, my eyes felt heavy and I needed more nights of sleep.I brought one of the pillows close to my chest and wrapped my hand around it since Neon wasn’t in the room.My stomach grumbles as if I hadn’t eaten a while ago. After a while of tossing around, I eventually fell asleep.When I woke up, I was alone in the bed, and it felt as if something was hanging on my throat. I rushed out of bed into the bathroom and threw up on the toilet. My hand gripped the toilet seat and vomited everything that I ate last night.I flushed it down the toilet and splashed water on my face on the faucet. I washed my mouth as well and came out of the bathroom.“I was about to open the door, are you okay?” Neon was standing there with a towel in his hand.“Did you throw up?”“Yes.” I sighed.“I didn’t see you on the bed when I woke up.”“I left early, there was an emergency you were sleeping
Silas' perspectiveThe moment I went down the stairs with Rufus in my hand, we found Diana at the bottom of the stairs.She froze when she saw me, and her jaw dropped to the ground. She took a step down the stairs.Probably she wanted to eavesdrop to know what would become of me since the Alpha had caught on.I pulled Rufus along and met with her. “You will have a word with the Alpha soon. I won’t come for you now, Diana. Give me some time when I have gathered enough evidence, I will make you regret every choice you’ve made.” I whispered to her ears when I was close to her.I saw her fist cleaned, and her face was filled with fear and anger. She said nothing, there was nothing for her to say knowing that she had been caught.I pulled Rufus along, and out of the house. I could feel her eyes behind us, till we were out of the house.I handed Rufus to the prison guard and made sure he was watched and they won’t leave his side for a minute.I hurried to the Pack hospital. I needed a Pack D
Neon's perspectiveHer eyes snapped to my face, she took a step closer to me. “Neon.” She muttered in shock.“What do you mean I should leave, where would I go? Neon you know I have nowhere to go, this is my only home.”“Then you should have thought about your actions!” I raised my voice at her.“It was just sleeping pills you gave Aria, it could be poison next, and then what, you would kill her!” I was struggling to keep my wolf in check, we had just come from a long day at the meeting and came home to meet this.“Neon, no...” She shook her head as if she was going to justify her actions.“I didn’t know what came over me.”I huffed. “You didn’t know?”“I did.” She replied.“Are you messing with me now? The guards told me you planned this, you carefully made this plan and got the necessary things that you need, and you don’t know what came over you?”She fell on her knees, clasped her hands together, and cried. “I’m sorry, Neon.”“It’s Alpha!” I corrected her.“Alpha Neon please, I won
Neon's perspectiveI didn’t understand what was going on, I wanted to see my mate, Aria. If anything had happened to her, I made my way to the bed after picking up the duffle bag that I dropped. I dropped it on the floor beside the bed.My hand touched her hair and down to her face, she was breathing but her eyes were shut.She wasn’t having any clothes on, they must have stripped off from the dress she wore. I clenched my fist beside me and stared at Silas. “Who made my mate like this? Which of you strip her?”“It wasn’t me!” The guard who was on his knees immediately shouted. I tore my gaze off Silas when he was about to speak.“Who did?”“It was Luna Diana, Alpha. She was the one who took off her dress. We had only carried her into the room. We didn’t do anything else.” He rushed his words.I nodded, trying to understand why Diana would do such a thing. What was she planning that she had my mate involved in it?“And what are you doing here Silas?”“I already explained what happened
Silas' perspectiveMy eyes fluttered open after a while, I groaned and felt a hand pulling me. I opened my eyes fully and saw a guard pulling me along to the bed.“Fuck, why is he so heavy!” He grunted and dragged me forward.What was going on?And what was the headache that I felt earlier?I hit his hand off my body, and he jolted forward. I saw the shock on his face when he noticed that I was awake.“Why did you bring me here?”“B-Beta?” He sputtered as if lost for words.“Speak!” I shouted.Why did he bring me into Neon’s bedroom when I was talking with Diana earlier at the bar section?I glanced across the bed quickly. Aria was on the bed with the covers on. I darted my gaze away from her body when I saw that her shoulders were bare.What the fuck happened when I passed out?I stared at the other guard who was hiding behind the door and pulled him out of there. I slammed his back on the wall. “You will speak now or I will slit your throat!” I threatened.The other guard who had car
Diana's perspectiveWhen I left Neon in his study room, I couldn’t go back to sleep. If I don’t act fast, I might end up losing everything, and Neon would find out.If he does, that would be the end of me and I couldn’t let that happen.I paced around my bed, thinking of what I should do, and Silas was on my tail too. If the rogue gets caught, I will be in so much trouble, and it’s not gonna end well.I sighed and sat down on the bed after pacing back and forth for a long time.I bite my nails while thinking of what to do, I had to come up with a plan else it gonna be hell.Neon won’t believe anything I say, that it was all Aria’s fault that all of this was happening, he seemed as if he was bewitched by her and won’t think Aria could be of any wrong or anything was her fault.I hurriedly picked up my phone when it rang, and answered it.“Hello...” I said on the phone while waiting for the receiver to respond. He didn’t say anything for over a minute.“Can you hear me?”“Heard one of my
Neon's perspectiveI got informed of the meeting with the elders and had to leave the house.I didn’t want to leave Aria alone in the house though the guards were there but they weren’t as strong as my Beta or Gemma.The rogue was still on the loose, and he could find his way to the mansion. Aria said he saved her, I couldn’t help but be suspicious about him.He could come back here, and if I wasn’t around I need my Beta to be here to guide my home, and my mate and Diana as well.They are the people I cherish most and I don’t want anything to happen to them.I had a quick shower and dressed up. Aria was still sleeping. I kissed her lightly on her lips. “I love you, mate and I’m sorry.”I went out of the house, shutting the door quietly behind me.I will see her when I get back from the meeting, and I will try not to get back late. I couldn’t stay hours away from my mate.I drove to the pack house. We were having the meeting here.“Alpha...” The elders stood up when I came in, they lowe
Silas's perspectiveI stayed a while in Neon’s study after he went for a meeting with the council of Elders. I worked on the pack issues we were having and started arranging his study before he came back.I had to make sure the study room was cleaned, and every book was placed in the right order.I asked the Gemma to leave and go on with his work at the borders, and I was behind at the mansion.I was intentionally waiting to see Aria. Neon said she was asleep before he left and I was waiting for her to wake up so I could check up on her and hold a few conversations.I wonder how she was feeling, and if her wound was healing. I forgot to ask if Neon used his saliva on her because it can also heal wounds, she probably didn’t want to take Neon’s blood.Aria looked scared to be a werewolf and not after what she had seen, and what happened to her.She probably thinks we are all beasts.I ran a finger through my hair and stepped out of the study when it was past six.‘Should I ask the maid t
Aria's perspective“Do I have to be a werewolf?” I mumbled.She chuckled softly and folded her arms on her chest. She stared at me as if she wanted to read my thoughts.“How do you expect to lead a pack of werewolves when you’re human?” She asked amusingly.“I thought it could work.” My voice came out faintly.“Don’t be silly. Aria, think about it, we are werewolves, you’re just human. You’re different from us, werewolves like us can’t go to your city and become president of the states and that’s how it works here too.” She rolled her eyes.I pouted my lips. Neon told me he has an estate business in New York, and he’s influence in New York. He’s a werewolf but he was able to do all that.“Can they tell?”“We can easily sense that you’re human. It’s like a bad omen.”I clamped my mouth because I had no idea how to respond to that, I looked away from her.Her words hurt.Does Neon think like that as well? That I’m nothing but bad luck.“Do you think Neon thinks that way as well?” I asked
