KILLIAN POVIt was another day for me in the study room but today other things are on my mind. Fortunately, everyone is okay and Aria isn't hurt physically or emotionally which allowed me to continue planning for the vacation I had suggested and Darius agreed. I needed this vacation and so does Aria. She needs a break from Marcus and Lauren's non stop drama which was the initial reason I propose it but then something else happened. Thankfully everything is back on tracks. In the morning I got ready and decided to have breakfast with everyone and also get to see Aria. I left her last time in a rather cold way and I felt guilty ever since but unfortunately she wasn't at the table except Darius who was also expecting to see her. I waved over a guard and sent him to get Aria but he returned with news that she had left her room quite early in the morning. The only reason why she'll ever leave her room that early must be because she wants to cook breakfast. So I thought she made breakf
ARIA POVI slowly turned to him. His eyes says it all, he wasn't at all happy to see me. That was a first. "Hey, there!" I called with a forced smile on my face, "You don't seem too happy to see me. That's a first. And it's kinda upsetting." I tried to joke but he was not having it. "Drop what you're doing and get over here." He ordered. "Yes sir." I responded and mocked salute before walking over to him. Damn. My plans are ruined.Everyone was staring at us. There's no way no one will not know who I am after this. Way to go Killian. Now how will I work now?Once I closed the distance between us, he grabbed my hand and pulled me closer so there's no distance at all then wrapped his arms around my waist and placed a kiss on my lips. "Do you know how much I looked for you this morning?" He asked then placed another on my cheek. Okay, I was mad my plan was spoiled but damnit, I was enjoying his soft kisses to even focus on my anger. Everyone was watching us. I felt a bit shy but I
ARIA POV"Is it only your feets that are hurting? Shall I help with the tense muscles on your thighs?" He asked with a mischievous grin. "I should have known it." I sat up to face him, my face only a few inches away, "You have ulterior motives." "What ulterior motive?" He asked with a sly smirk as he slowly trail his hands up my legs and to my lap. "I'm only thinking about my baby here." He then massage my lap in a seductive manner that had me wet in seconds. "Alright, Darius I will admit. You've got game." I said. "What do you mean? I thought I already got my prey?" He grinned and I laughed. "Yeah you have." I admitted with nods. "So…" he trailed off, his hands going higher and his eyes peeled on the hem on my skirt. I stopped his hands, "No it's okay." I said suddenly making his smile drop. He brought his eyes to me and gave me a questioning yet sad look. "No need to massage there, I'm all good." I added. Once he understood what I meant, his sly smirk returned and he eyes my
KILLIAN POVOnce she noticed my presence, she slowly turned to me and gave me a guilty and pitiful look. "Hey, there!" She had a sheepish smile on her face, she seemed to be going over her head about what to say to me as she should because she needs to do some serious explaining to do as the why the fuck she was there working her ass off when she should be preparing for the trip or just resting before the trip, whatever because the only work I allowed her to do was to cook cause she seem to like it very much and definitely not clean windows! "You don't seem too happy to see me. That's a first. And it's kinda upsetting." She joked but I wasn't going to take it easy on her. The fuck was she doing?"Drop what you're doing and get over here." I had ordered and she saluted before coming towards me.She walked closer, the orangey sunlight coming in from the window illuminated her, reminding me why I had to lock myself up in the study room if I wanted to focus. Fuck, she was stunning as hel
KILLIAN POV"Unbelievable." Was all I could say. Fuck. I took a round brush and blow dried her hair. I was done soon and she just walked to the bed, avoiding see contact. Damnit. She could have just ask. I would give her money without a second thought no matter the amount. I sighed and joined her on the bed. I pulled her into my arms. She hugged me back and I stroke her hair softy and placed a peck on top her head. "I'm sorry you can't get the money you worked hard for anymore but I can still pay you if you'll accept it. You know it's my money either way." "It's not the same." She mumbled. I sensed this was becoming an very sensitive topic for her. I pushed back the incredible lust I felt and try to focus on her feelings. She was a little upset, I could tell. I didn't want her to feel like she was nothing without me. She was everything, wonderful, beautiful, sexy and smart. She just had an unfortunate past, that's all. I made sure my hips weren't touching her so she doesn't feel
DARIUS POVKillian had pushed some more work to me but I put all this aside once I heard Aria was back. Yesterday we weren't able to talk properly but I really wanted to talk to her about the whole working thing.I knew she would be retiring to her room after the days shopping. I once went for shopping with my mother when I was very little. I hated it and it was really tiring with the whole trying stuffs out still you find what looks good on you and repeating that over and over again. I found it really boring so I never went again. Remembering that experience, I felt she needed a little company. I headed straight to her room and as I was going, I found her on her way there as well with three servants behind her carrying the bags. I could tell she already knew I was following her with the small curl of her lip. It made me smile too."How was shopping?" She was at the door and was about to open it and let herself in.At those words, she turned to me with half-lidded eyes, "Can't you
KILLIAN POVI knew when Aria returned to the castle after shopping but I couldn't go see her. My presence was urgently needed at a meeting for the proposal a neighboring pack was offering. He was going to go through everything verbal and explain more on why things were so because I had listed out some of my complaints to him. I hurried over there since the meeting was sudden. He apologized for calling me out like that, normally I would be have been greatly offended but I just really wanted to take care of business and go on the trip. I excused his behavior and prompt him to get straight to the point. He sat me down in a conference room in his pack house and began a presentation himself. He greatly highlighted the benefits of the proposal and what it would do for my pack but he didn't really tall about what I was curious about. Once he was done and I could ask questions, I reminded he of the things I outlined out. They seemed like they would be really big troubles one day if we d
ARIA POVThe ride to the ship was rather quiet and when I mean quiet I mean we weren't talking to each other but loud music was blaring from the car speakers. I was probably the reason why we were talking because when Killian and Darius tried to start a conversation with me, I only gave short replies like no or yes or I just nod my head. I probably made them uncomfortable and a little concerned. What is wrong with me? I need to be happy! Today was the day, the first day on the one week vacation, I shouldn't let Marcus bother me. But he did. But not because he kissed me — well that too — but because of the mischievous look in his eyes when he told me; "I'll find out soon enough." That was a promised and that look always mean he's planning or had planned something. He's probably acting on it right now. I don't want him to ruin this vacation for us. I didn't trust Marcus at all. I didn't want any accident or anything to happen to Killian or Darius. Before we got on the SUV, I re
BONUS CHAPTERKILLIAN POVAria took a quick sip of the orange juice I gave her then brought her attention back to me.She was dressed in a black bodycon overall which hugged her curves perfectly. I had a headset blocking my ear — I gave Aria one as well but she didn't wear it since she wasn't the one shooting.I closed one eye, my right hand holding my gun firmly and the other supporting it as I aimed.I aimed for the target then fired. The shot was probably very loud, I saw Aria cover her ears from my rearview, she probably regrets now why she did wearing a headset as well.She sighed then looked over to where I was aiming. The tin can was on the ground now with a hole in its body."Wow!" She exclaimed then started clapping for me. She stood up and walked over to me. The cool breeze going through her hair, and messing it up made her look like when we were done with our rounds in bed.I smiled sweetly at her as she strolled over. The sound of the trees were helpful for calming my hear
Aria POV“Sure, that's enough time to let loose. If you're all okay with it then so am I.” Darius answered.I finished writing the letter with that confirmations and sent it to the school. I joined Killian in arranging things for the vacation.Since he'll be taking a sudden vacation, he needs to take care of important matters then clear his schedule for vacation.The preparations went smoothly and the next day came before I realized it. I woke up the kids and helped them get ready to the academy without telling them where we were really going to.Everything was ready and we got into the car and drive off.“Mommy, where are we going?” Darren asked curiously, he looked suspicious and knew we weren't going to school.“Where are you supposed to be now?” I asked him.“The academy!” Richard answered for him.“So why are asking that, Darren?” I directed at Darren again.“Because you're coming with us. And also Daddy Darius and Daddy Killian are coming as well. Why? Are we in trouble?” Darren
“Even if you did, we have no choice but to accept it and forgive you so what's the point in asking that?” I rolled my eyes at his comment and turned to Killian.“Surely you don't think that too.”He raised his hand in surrender, “Hey, I'm just a simple werewolf trying to enjoy his stack, can't I do that?”I rolled my eyes them rest back on the chair, “I hate the both of you.”They both chuckled, “No, you don't.”And they're fucking right, I do not. I love them. I love them more every day I wake up, every time I see our kids and everytime I go to sleep and envisioned them with my eyes closed. Every little gift or gestures they give towards me, the small and the big always wins me over every fucking time.I spent all night thinking about where we should spend our family vacation. I had a few in mind but I realized that we weren't the only ones going there.The kids will be there as well and I needed to cater the vacation to what they'll want and enjoy as well.I thought long and hard, t
Aria POV“I'm sorry.” My voice cracked so I cleared my throat, it was only slightly louder than the first one. Damn me.“What? What are you saying? Speak louder, I can't hear you.”I looked up and glared at him?He can't hear me? Even the weakest omega could hear a whisper much less him. He was messing with me and I obviously deserved it.“Babe, I'm sorry, I was crazy yesterday but you didn't do anything wrong.” I pulled myself together and begged.“Yeah I certainly didn't because I only just got there!” He added and I nodded.“I'm sorry honey, will you forgive me? Please? Please? Please….?” I pouted as I begged, making an adorable baby eye hoping it'll do the trick in melting his heart. “I was stupid and I promise not to ever do that again.”He chuckled slightly then looked out the window. I could tell he was wavering. I tugged at his arm and continued insisting. “Come on, Daddy.” I said teasingly and I shot me a look. I smiled mischievously and he rolled his eyes.“Do you think this
Aria POVAfter talking with Killian, I went to look for Darius. He was on site in a new playground construction for kids. It was already getting dark and he still has no plans of returning. I guess he was also really angry with me.I summoned up courage and went to the construction site. The was there, talking with some architects and engineers.The site was nearly done and it seemed it was going to be the biggest playground for kids ever made. It was beautiful with every toys and attraction for kids imaginable.He was the one that brought up the idea and it warms my heart to see him actively accomplishing it. He was a really Daddy, making decisions as a father.I remember how he kept on spoiling the kids, buying whatever they wanted. I believe it was because of how his parents treated him, he doesn't want the kids to feel that way ever so he's trying his best to be the exact opposite.While I appreciate that he's loving and caring for the kids, I had to make sure he limits himself.H
Aria POVThe scrunching sun set on my face, it was just morning yet the sun was hot. I could tell the day was going to be a bad one.Not long after I woke up, my newborn baby, baby Harry, woke up as well and began crying, his screams were so loud that I immediately got out of bed and rushed to his nursery not being able to stand the screaming.Just as I was getting into the nursery, nannies rushed in as well. “Good morning your grace” they greeted Aria with a bow then turned to attend to Harry.Just give him to me,” I commanded them and they did just so.Harry cried for a while in my hands before stopping while I brought out her breast for him to suck. I was very tired and exhausted even though I just woke up. I slowly sat down and tried to relax.The morning went on routinely, I sat down with the rest of our kids for breakfast but Killian or Darius joined us for breakfast. Wonder what's wrong?I was getting a bit worried about them and wondered if I was too harsh on them yesterday. I
“So… has everyone eaten?”"No mommy!" They chorused.Aria finished bathing baby Harry, she took her four kids to the dinning area where breakfast was served for everyone.She breastfeeds Harry again while helping the boys with their breakfast. The boys fought for her attention in helping them, calling her back and forth and during this chaos, Killian appeared."And what's going on here, children? Are you stressing out your mother again?" Killian asked teasingly as he strode over to where Aria was sitting."Oh thank the moon goddess you finally decided to come help me out." Aria said sarcastically, "Too bad we have to cut short your relaxation." Aria rolled her eyes then narrowed them at him."Hey, why are you getting mad at me? I came as soon as I woke up." Killian defended himself."Well thanks for waking early and helping out." Aria sounded even more sarcastic and angry. "It's been really helpful.""Okay, I'm sensing a lot of hostility from you, is everything alright? Did I do anyth
The voice of the baby wailing was the first thing Aria heard in the morning, it woke her up from bed and she groaned as she sat up, pulling aside the covers.She rubbed her eyes to get rid of the remaining sleepiness in her eyes and got out of bed. She rushed to the room the crying was coming from, it was just opposite her room.That room was a second toilet in her chambers but ever since her first son, it was converted into a nursery for her kids to be close to her.She had moved out of the room she stayed when she first came to the pack, her personal chambers was prepared for her after her mating ceremony with her mates.It took her a while to get used to the new style of living but she got a hang of things after a while. In her chambers was like another family which consisted of only women expect for the guards station at the doors.The chambers originally, had a nursery which was much bigger and spacious than the one in the toilet but it was located far from her room so she had her
They had gathered some wood and put it around Marcus lifeless form and soon a fire was formed and he was engulfed in flames.No one said anything, they observed his obituary in silence, Killian the most silent of them all.“He was the last one to get out the fire when the house was burning, he was so scared. Now he is turning to ashes, in the same fire that consumed his heart. I saved him then, but I couldn't save him now.”Killian turned to Darius after his statement, a sense of loneliness covering his eyes. His brother was short of words until Aria swayed, almost falling until she was caught.“Aria!” Darius held her tightly, her eyes were sealed shut and he began to fear the worst, “She needs to see a doctor.” With a swoop, she was in his arms and he was walking ahead. Kai put out the fire and turned to follow his brother, but he took one look at Marcus before running off to catch up with Darius. Right now his present was more important, and that was Aria.It had been days since sh
