"What?" Kiara found it hard to believe what Rosemary was saying. Silas was the mastermind of the biggest trauma in her life, he kidnapped her and kept her in his pack to make her his Luna. He claimed to love her, that they were meant to be. But all the things he did to her did not depict love at all. He only wanted her because he was after the power she had.He never loves her and never has genuine feelings toward her. He didn't even care about her grief, and he teamed up with Angeline, which ended up making Kiara lose her baby. She would never forget about that.She hadn't heard about Silas since Dave had managed to bring her back to the Pureblood pack. But Kiara was sure that her business with Silas wasn't over yet. Sooner or later, she would have to face him again eventually, but she was grateful for the peace she had for the time being. Hearing that the man she hated the most was already dead gave her a jumbled mix of emotions. "How?" How did that happen? She didn't think a m
The timing of this part is two months after the previous part. Enjoyy~The storm hit so early and so unpredictably that most of them had very little time to prepare and were left rushing to save themselves and their loved ones.If Dante and Angeline had planned their attack, they chose the perfect time during Kiara's late pregnancy. Just a few days before the heir to the Pureblood Pack would be born, the first child of Dave Malion. Unfortunately for her, when she needed him by her side the most, he was not there. He left her under the protection of the manor and the pack alone. "You must be strong, Kiara. Promise me that you will be strong for me, and our child."She still vividly remembered his last words, which left a hollow in her heart. The agony tormented her. How do I tell him that she doesn't want him to leave her? She wanted to tell her husband about how she felt, that she was so weak, and that if they were apart, it would only make it worse. "Say it, my Luna.""When...?"
It was too long to wait for Gwenna's assistant to arrive and get everything set up. Kiara felt an irresistible urge to push, she would do anything to make the pain in her stomach go away. Three maids hurried into the room, and two of them helped her stand. The guard carried Macaine Malion out, and the door slammed shut.The cramp made her breath labored, and she threw her weight on the sofa. Someone's voice coached her to catch her breath."We should take her to her room! We'll need a bed," Rosemary urged Gwenna. "No- yes, if she can still walk."The wave of pain subsided drastically, and she gritted her teeth. She had no voice and made everyone panic."Kiara?"As the contractions came again with an incredible amount of pain, she screamed so loudly that her throat felt torn. Amidst her screams, she heard the panicked shouts of the maids."Hurry up! Hurry!" "Get me a wheelchair!" Kiara fell onto a sofa. Sweat damped her hair and temples, and she gripped anything, so tightly that
Dave arrived at the manor alone; Daniel and the others are still in the packhouse. He was greeted by Gwenna at the entrance. "You're back! thank goodness!" She trotted towards him, followed by Rosemary, who had a bright smile on her lips. His heart was instantly flooded with relief to see that his people seemed to be in good condition. "Where is she?" "She's in her bedroom." Gwenna immediately knew who Dave was asking about. "She doesn't know you will be arriving today. But it's good! It'll be a surprise for her. Be careful, Dave, don't shock her too much." Before he stepped inside, he thanked Rosemary and Gwenna for all they had done in his absence. In the main hall, several servants greeted him and said congratulations as soon as they saw him. They thanked all of them. He had stopped by the packhouse earlier to clean up and change, there was no way he would meet his wife with the remaining blood of his enemy still on his clothes.Dave arrived on the upper floor and went straig
Kiara was quickly standing to her feet as Macaine aimed for Acadia's bassinet. Her sleepy eyes vanished in an instant and were replaced with alertness, as though she was about to grab Acadia from her place when Macaine stopped next to the bassinet."Mom," he called out to his mother. Inevitably, the same vigilance that his wife felt lit up in him. Even though he had already been informed that his mother was coming to the manor and he was sure Macaine wouldn't dare do anything to his daughter, he couldn't help but feel suspicious towards her. But Dave tried to push the feeling away. After all, Acadia was Dave's child, and the Malion's heir, Macaine, wouldn't do anything to hurt her. "Is she sleeping?" Macaine asked instead, ignoring the subtle warning tone in her son's voice. She watched the sleeping baby intently. "She's quick to fall asleep when she's full; it's best not to wake her. I'm worried she'll wake up late at night, and Kiara will have to feed her in the middle of the ni
Acadia's crib was in a room directly connected to Kiara's room and only separated by a single door. Every minute, Kiara felt the urge to check on her, making sure she was safe. On top of the crib hung three birds that would make a chirping sound when blown by the wind, and Acadia would giggle jolly not be able to take her eyes off of them while awake. The hanging nightingale was now spun softly by Kiara's fingers. The baby was fast asleep now, her soft breathing steady and her tiny lips slightly parted. Kiara spent more time admiring her daughter before reluctantly getting up. It was late, and she should be sleeping, but instead of going to her bed, she headed to the kitchen downstairs. She grabbed a cup, took a spoonful of black tea and honey, and then filled the cup with hot water. After making the tea to Dave's liking, she took it upstairs to his study. Remembering the message from Daniel this morning that she had to talk to Dave about this right away makes her a little bit n
The day they brought Acadia to the pack has finally arrived for the very first time. The baby is now one month and three weeks old, a little later than the age at which the naming ceremony should have been held.Only pack members would attend the celebration—someone who is not from the Pureblood pack, only Rosemary and Lana. Kiara invited Lana only after she got permission from Dave. "Are you sure you want to invite your friend?" Dave asked her, sounding a little unsure of Kiara's decision to invite the human. Lana would be coming alone, as Hannah was unable to attend. "Yeah, I'm sure. She's happy to come," Kiara reassured him. Dave stared at his mate quizzically and said, "But isn't she a human, Kiara?"His words brought Kiara's full attention to him. For a few moments, she was left dumbfounded by what he said. She calms herself. She knew he meant well; it wasn't because he hated having humans at his daughter's naming ceremony. "Yes, Lana is a human, Dave. But she's my friend, and
In an instant, all attention was drawn to the person who had shouted so impudently. The crowd parted as the person stepped forward. Dave cannot shift his gaze from someone who has so boldly said such a thing.He was a man, still young, in his early twenties. He had an almost-bald haircut with piercings along each of his ears and tattoos on both his arms. At first glance, he didn't stand out from the other pack members. But he knew that this man wasn't a pack member. "Closer," the Alpha ordered. The man made his way closer to the Alpha and the Luna of the Pureblood pack. Dave remained calm while Kiara stood vigilantly in her place. She tightened her embrace with Acadia in her arms as the stranger approached. She was disappointed, but not surprised. Somehow Kiara had prepared herself for disapproval if Dave decided to make Acadia his heir. But she thought it would be because of her position before she became Luna, because she was a low ranking werewolf back then, rather than because
Kiara was relieved to learn that Daniel had kept his word and taken Lana to the safe place, the manor, where she had been residing for the past few days. None of the threats she had received in the packhouse would be present here.They got up early and took Acadia for a stroll through the rose garden and the greenhouse. The greenhouse was a sight for sore eyes, as all the flowers were blooming like nobody's business despite the late spring. Lana was holding a bundle of joy in her arms as the little one was busy checking out the lay of the land. "I can't believe It's real. I've always wanted to visit a greenhouse since I was a kid, but the ticket in the city costs half of my grocery budget for the month. When I got here, I was like, "Does anyone have a whole greenhouse in their yard? haha." Lana laughed as she finished her sentence.Kiara remembered that the first time she worked for this family, she was just as excited as Lana. It would have been nice to take Lana here back then, to t
He pulled her dress up, bent, and pressed her legs against her chest. She pushed her panties sideways in a rude movement. Dave didn't give her even a moment to protest or catch her breath while he lowered the zipper of his trouser and guided his already hardening cock into her. Kiara's eyes widened in panic as she felt his long and girthy length slowly trying to penetrate. He intended to do it here! "P-please don't do it here-" she tried to make him hear her.But her efforts were in vain as she struggled to catch her breath, and all that came out of her lips was an incoherent moan when his body started to move in sync with his thrusts into her. Slow at first, but Dave picked up the pace over time, which overwhelmed her. She hugged his body. Crumpling his shirt and burying her face in the crook of his neck, Kiara closed her eyes. Her face was flushed and hot. She felt extremely ashamed and overwhelmed.She bit her tongue to keep the embarrassing voice from escaping her lips. She was
It's past midnight and Kiara can't sleep. Three days have passed since Dave sent the triplets to the Lycans and since then, she can't sleep peacefully. She was alone in the room because Dave had gone out after dinner. Acadia was with Rosemary so Kiara didn't have to worry about her at least for now. Rose to her feet, she grabbed a thick coat and put it on over her flimsy nightgown then darted out of Gwenna's house.She had to walk quite a far before she finally spotted her mate standing under a willow tree. Dave had his back to her and not seeming to hear her coming, Kiara ran to him. "Dave!" He turned around and was surprised to see she was there. "Kiara? Why are you here?" He reached and held her hand so that she wouldn't slip on the grass that was wet with night dew. Shouldn't she be the one asking why he was here? He didn't catch up with her in their room after dinner and instead, went out with Sam. After that day with the triplets, he made the pack members realize how important
Gwenna was the first to realize that the person they were waiting for was already in place. She didn't care anymore if Kiara wouldn't; she would tell everything to the Alpha about what the triplets were trying to do to the human girl. And let's see what Dave would do to them. 'They think that they won't get punished?' Gwenna's temper flared up as soon as she heard Kiara say that yesterday."Dave, they're being insolent to Luna Kiara! "They broke the pack's rules, and they tried to hurt Lana!"The Alpha and Beta had just returned from their jogging around the packhouse and were greeted with this commotion.Dave didn't immediately respond to Gwenna and tackled Caleb and his brothers. He walked over to his wife instead. Kiara had already risen to her feet. One hand was tightly wrapped around her other arms. Dave noticed the reddened blister on her right elbow, and his jaw clenched. She stared at him with visible relief, but there was also subtle worry. "Dave...""Are you alright?"She no
Acadia was crying loudly when they returned. As a baby who didn't usually fuss when someone else was holding her, it seemed that the baby was angry when she woke up and it wasn't her mom by her side.Rosemary bounced her on her arm, trying to stop the crying. She breathed a sigh of relief as she saw Kiara. "Oh, thank goodness you've come." She handed the baby to her mother. Kiara ran the tip of her fingers over Acadia's nose, which was red because of her weeping. She knew that the baby wasn't hungry because she had breastfed her before, so she must have cried when she woke up and felt an unfamiliar figure with her.And sure enough, as if instantly recognizing that her mom was back, Acadia's crying subsided. Her little fingers tugged on Kiara's hair, making her chuckle. "Are you looking for mommy? Relax, my dear; Mom is here now."Gwenna joined them after returning from the kitchen. "Kiara, did you call me earlier? I'm sorry I didn't hear it; the music was so loud. What is it? I hop
If she arrived even a minute late, Kiara didn't know what could happen to her best friend. Lana was curled up on the ground. She had tried to fight and run as fast as she could, but she stumbled, and they caught her easily. She was surrounded by three pack members, who Kiara noticed don't usually go to the manor to carry out Dave's duties. The three male members were young, at least in their late twenties. They seemed to be not only bothering Lana trivially but also scaring her to death until the girl's body trembled.The other two young guys who brought her to Lana are named Ezekiel and Luke. They saw what the three people did to Lana by accident and immediately reported it to Kiara. And once she got that information, she froze in place. Lana! She had forgotten about her friend. She forgot Lana was still at the party!Her panic over Acadia's safety earlier made her completely forget that she was in charge of one more person's safety. Her human friend, whom she invited to come here.
The baby's cries grew louder and louder, and Kiara rocked her in her arms, intending to calm Acadia down a little. "Ssh, ssh, mommy is here, Cadia. Sleep again, sweetheart." But she knew that once the baby was awake, it would be harder to get her back to sleep.Dave stepped up to his Luna after signaling the others to just go ahead with the feast and pretending what had just happened never happened. But he had sent Daniel to tighten the guard, especially if there were still people like Arthur in the pack. "My daughter is distracted, isn't she?" He spoke softly to Kiara, lowering his body slightly as if for Acadia to hear him. "Don't be afraid, little one; Dad already took care of that damn bastard, that damn rogue. He won't be able to harm you, I promise." Locked in the dungeon, even though Dave didn't give any orders on what to do with Arthur other than lock him up, what the rogue had just said was enough to get him in big trouble. The pack members in charge of guarding the priso
