Aiden’s POV

Walking down the hallway with Diana, I try my best to restrain my anger. Moon’s disappointed face keeps popping up in my head all through the awkwardly silent walk to the skies knows where.

“You are not talking Aiden.” I hear her disgustingly sweet voice.

I pay her no mind, silently wishing I had the strength to resist the temptation of strangling her later.

When we reach an open space close to the gate, she stops, and I do, too, already hating the fact that I had to follow her. Her hidden agenda isn’t too hidden.

She faced me and I did but hardly looked at her for a little more than a minute or two before finding another place to keep my gaze at. She searches my face, probably looking for a little crack to pound on and expand.

“Aiden.” She purrs.

She is suddenly gentle and soft-spoken, not like the devil I encountered a few minutes ago right in front of my doorstep. This annoying ‘thing’.

I am tempted to look at her face. I almost give a loud laugh but hold back mys

    Liam’s POVWith the gate closed to my face, I could not picture myself leaving even with all the hurt and pain. I know I should get moving; a mate bond can always be rejected, but the mere thought of that does something weird to my brain.I can only picture myself walking towards the gate and breaking into it to take her away from him, the strange guy I know nothing of but it strikes me at once.What if he is the one she said she confessed her feelings to and got rejected? You can’t control how you feel when they make impulsive actions, can you?No, is this me trying to defend her? I should picture myself moving but no, I am stuck and invisibly glued to the ground.When the image of what happened a few whiles ago repeated in my head, I rushed towards the tree behind me and gave it a good blow. It shakes from the impact, but the pain in my knuckles awakens my senses.I found myself sliding down to sit on one of the extra large tree roots poking out of the ground. I wondered why I sat

    Diana’s POVI watch him run in, I am blinded by rage if there is anything like that. There are two things I know for sure and that is exacting my revenge and claiming him back as mine. Not wanting to go in because I will yield to the temptation of stalking him again, I turn towards the gate as a better idea hits me.What if I go in search of the other guy and do something reckless to his heart? I smirk as this idea settles into my heart, the satisfaction from imagining it is fulfilling. Knowing he would be waiting for her till this time if he is the faithful type warms my blood. Walking towards the gate, my eyes dart around for any prying eyes, and with a little effort, I push the gate open, but I do so slowly to avoid the loud squeak that would attract attention in the quiet night. Stepping out and looking straight ahead of me, I was startled when I saw a man sitting across the street staring at me as if he had been waiting for the gate to be opened for eternity. I begin to thin

    Diana was in for another shock when two more people came out from behind the door. “What the hell is wrong with you guys?” She asked her friends, clearly having enough of their pranks after the tough night she experienced.“We should be asking you that.” Amira countered with her hands on her waist, her ears pecked up to get updated. “Girl, where have you been? Becky said she saw you sneaking up the stairs like a ninja.” Amira said and soon, she started laughing at the sheer imagination of Diana being sneaky.The other girls joined in the laugh, but Diana was not amused. “Hey, leave my bed.” She said to Lilian. “Yo! Chill.” Lilian had a little frown on her face.Rushing to Lilian, Diana pushed her out of her bed with the entirety of her strength. “What the fuck is.” “You don’t know about respect for privacy and personal property,” Diana said flopping herself on the bed before releasing a huge sigh.Looking at themselves and shrugging, the three friends decided it was best to wait

    Moon’s POVThe footsteps are excruciatingly slow but don’t stop. My mind is left to ponder on who it might be, I fear for my life as I feel the intruder get closer. For the life of me, I just want to be alone and I don’t think that is too much to ask for.First, my brain thinks of Liam. I get excited at the possibility of his looking frantically for me and ends up infiltrating my pack house to pick me up. I am unbelievable, and I know it. Who else in their right sense of mind gets excited at the prospect of something so possibly abstract while in possible danger? I lie painfully still on the bed; even my breathing is regulated, and it’s difficult for me. I only hope I look convincingly deep into my sleep. Thinking about Liam again, my heart shattered at the betrayal and my giving way to my impulsive thought. I thought of telling him the next time we met, but then I thought otherwise. But would that make me any different? One more step from the intruder and I quickly stop my fantas

    Aiden’s POVI know it is impromptu and out of the blue but I can’t help it. The feel of her lips against mine is addictive, and just the softness of her breasts against mine hardens my member. I can’t read her expression; it is as blank as a clean slate. Then, as if possessed by a demon, she starts out jerking as if having a fit of cough before opening her mouth wide to let out the strangest kind of laughter. I have never heard it in my life. It goes on like this for a while to my irritation with her slowly reducing the intensity of her laughter only to pick up her pace again. “I don’t see anything funny in my words,” I told her and she took her sweet time trying to be calm.“Why?” “Why what?” I ask but when she doesn’t answer me, I think. “My request?”“What happened to accepting me back then?” She questions again before sinking into the bed. Placing both hands behind her on the bed and leans backward, her face easing as she sighs in exhaustion.“Please leave.” “And my reply?

    The sound reverberated across the room, leaving Moon and Aiden wide-eyed and mouths almost hanging open, trying to process what happened.Aiden, though shocked is inwardly happy that Moon could do something as huge as slap him and not regret it. Seeing it as a sign of strength and strong will, he is about to commend her on her boldness when he notices her face morph into an emotion he could already identify. Moon, taking his wide eyes and his tongue repeatedly poking out through the part of his cheeks where he was slapped to mean anger, began to tremble, the image from earlier in his room resurfacing in her head.“Are you hurt?” Moon’s original self was back, pushing against the thin surface to save herself from another traumatic moment. Seeing him keep staring at her, his initial shocked expression now morphing into a slight frown, his hand still going to rub on that part of his cheeks occasionally, Moon’s heart went out of control. A part of her wanted to keep a distance from him

    Moon’s POVBeing weak is a curse, nobody wants to associate with the likes of me. Especially in a pack where power, wealth, and beauty are all that matters. Grabbing my index finger like it’s a piece of shit, Lilian twists it earning a yelp from me. My eyes couldn’t help traveling towards Aiden but he still had that attitude of indifference to my pain. “How dare you?” Lilian said in a sing-song, still smiling. “Please.” I pleaded, almost getting on my knees from the pain. “Do you have evidence?” She asked.I shook my head, and in the process, I saw the remnant of her crew enjoying the spectacle.“That’s enough.” Aiden finally said striding over to us.By this time, I had tears streaming down my face and a light liquid running down my nose. The muffled giggles and whispers around me blackened my heart.If Lilian heard Aiden, she didn’t act like it because she went ahead to push me to the floor and I fell with my legs open. The giggles morph into laughter, and heat spreads to my fac

    Moon continues with her arrangements, sorting out the food to prepare for the evening while looking at the list to be sure she made no mistakes. Outside the store, Aiden was getting apprehensive about being caught by the watching eyes of others. Deciding to walk away, he heard something hit the floor and his ears perked up for another sound just in case it might have been a fraction of his imagination. Listening closely, whoever was inside the store made an effort to pick up whatever it was that fell and made a shuffling sound with her legs. Her grunts betray her gender. It had to be Moon; her partners would always abandon her, leaving her to take the workload on herself. Before now, Aiden would have sneaked in to help her out till they were both done with the work and he thought of doing that today, at least to make up for his actions back there. “Moon, I know you are in there,” Aiden said but met with silence. Knowing she was still mad at his action, he decided it was best to

    The sun peeked into the room through the curtain and Liam groaned at the splitting headache he felt. His body felt weird, and there was an unfamiliar weight on him; he struggled to open his eyes, but in the process of doing so, he thought his head was going to split into two, so he kept them closed, taking his time to finally open them. First, his right eye, but things were a little blurry; then, his left eye. Looking around his room which was a mess, his brain finally registered that there was something or someone on him. Seeing the familiar brown curly hair on her head, Liam’s heart skipped a bit. ‘Moon?’ was the first thought that came to his head but the connection wasn’t there. Now, his heart was thudding in anticipation and surprise. Who was this person on him? What had he done last night? He struggled to remember. She moved on him, and he realized again with growing alarm that he was naked. NAKED! And she was, too! Now, he was beginning to breathe fast. No, he couldn’t

    Withdrawing his already swollen lips from hers with a thin silver line being the only connection between their lips, he looked at the Beta in excessive pain, cutting the thin line of saliva between Harper and him. Gently detaching her body from his, he stood up, keeping her with utmost care on his seat before proceeding to walk towards Kia who was now in a kneeling position.“What just happened?” He asked squatting to Kia’s level.“Did you just try to harm Moon and me?” His smile was daunting and mirthless.“No, NO. She isn’t Moon!” Kia found himself yelling over the sound of music, trying to knock some sense into Liam’s head. “Oh, now you are being unrealistic.” Liam sucked his teeth.“Why didn’t I think of this method before now?” He asked himself as he watched his Beta writhing in pain.“All right, for old time's sake, I will help you.” The words flowed lightly from his lips, and Kia looked at him through the severe pain he was going through.“You can free yourself from this pain

    “You can leave and enjoy the party to your satisfaction. Any more disruption and you are out.” He said waving them off and urging the acting waiter to pour more wine into his empty glass.“You should stop now; you are drunk,” Kia warned, giving the man a sign to stop pouring his drink.“It seems like you have forgotten your oath just in a few minutes.” Liam threatened glaring at Kia.“Know your place.” He said and reached out his hand, taking the bottle of wine from the waiter.“You rather listen to him, than listen to me?” Liam asked the confused man who had this fright on his face with a stance ever ready to bolt out of his position. “I am sorry Alpha, I…” “Get out!” Liam ordered, the fire in his yellow orbs blazing even more as the man ran out immediately.Taking another stick of cigar, Liam was about to light when a strong perfume hit his nostrils.“Let me do that for you, Alpha Liam.” The coquettish voice said, making him pause his actions and give a frown before looking up at

    “Kneel properly or leave,” Liam ordered using his aura as an Alpha. “I won’t do this against your will.” He continued. “If you don’t want to, walk out.”“I will.” “You will?”“You will what?” Liam asked him. “I will take the oath.” “Draw your blood,” Liam commanded and watched Kia bite into his hand long and hard enough to get his blood out. Following Liam’s finger, Kia made his blood drop on the place pointed out, and Liam did the same. “I swear to always be loyal to Alpha Liam of the Blood Moon pack as his Beta till eternity,” Kia swore and watched his blood simmer, and soon, both bloods mixed themselves thoroughly, and they were gone. “What?” Liam asked Kia when he looked up at him in question. “Were you thinking I would swear to be loyal to you too?” He asked, the amusement in his voice a bit too loud. “Henceforth, you are bound to me, body, wolf, and soul. You can choose to betray me at your risk.” Alpha Liam said healing himself and making a show of flexing his muscle

    Liam’s POVCalming myself down in this situation is a hard task, but I do. I had always had absolute control over my emotions until meeting Moon just recently. On the thought of her, I waited till it got a little darker before deciding to move out. I can’t remember the last time I made use of my ability, but this night, to see Moon, I will.In Kia’s head, I know he thinks I have transferred all of my ability to him. He doesn’t know he just has a fraction of it and nothing more. Though I have lost my ability to be invisible, the ability to pass through hard surfaces was still present. Standing up and deliberately dressing in a black sleeveless muscle shirt and shorts, I made my way through the walls towards the back of the pack house. Remembering something, I walked back into my room through the wall and created an illusion of me sleeping. Knowing Kia, he would come in occasionally without prior notice to check up on me. Having been satisfied with the illusion of myself sleeping on

    Liam’s POV.Diana? She mentioned her name in the passing, but I held onto that while pretending not to hear her. What was it she was spewing about Moon? She looked familiar and malicious; I know I shouldn’t trust her, but how could I not? After getting stood up by my mate and stumbling upon her kissing another man. “She filled my head with a lot of nonsense,” I said grabbing my hair.But on saying that, I wonder who did. Moon or Diana? Did Moon fabricate tales to make me pity her? Love her? Or, is Diana the right one? After all, I can’t wipe away the fact that there are bits of truth in her words. After that night, standing up with extreme hurt and heartache, I vowed never to set foot there anymore. Moon, Diana, and the Silverstone pack can all go to hell. Walking back home wasn’t as easy as I thought. Heartbreak was the last thing I expected to experience, but I did experience it: not being able to sleep, not being able to eat well enough, losing interest in things, and wanting

    The past Moon would have been over the moon at that question, not this Moon. Looking into his eyes, she was almost deceived for a moment that he was sincere. At this moment, she noticed something she had been blind to all along.He had only ever used the word ‘like’* around her and not ‘love,’ not to mention his indifference to her being bullied, his joining in the fun of making a complete mockery of her, and his acting like he didn’t know her at all. “You disgust me.” Moon spat out glaring hard at him. “What did you just say?” He asked, taking a step closer to her with his eyes red and wide open. “You claim to LIKE me,” Moon said, a chortle escaping her lips despite the pain she was in. “I do like you, and there is no need to put it down for some previously homeless bastard.” He said with his lips lifted like he had some nuts loosed. Moon’s hands itched to smack his face at his tagging Liam a homeless bastard. Swallowing the harsh words to avoid any rash reaction from him, she

    Moon’s eyes stared at the whiteness of his eyes in the dark in horror after he lay on top of her, lightly placing his weight on her while supporting the rest of it with his hands on the floor. “Let me help you, Moon.” He whispered in her ears. Shaking off the feeling of anxiety spreading speedily along her body parts and coming to settle in her stomach, she closed her eyes to avoid looking at his face which was closer than normal to hers. “Get off me Aiden.” She pleaded gently, a little tear peeking out of her eyelids.“I can’t. If I do, you’d run off and if you run off, there is a possibility of being caught by the guards.” He said. “You know the guards are on the lookout for you?” He asked her softly. Snapping her eyes open, she furrowed her brow at his craftiness. “And whose fault is it huh? Whose fault is it?” “I was only doing it for your good Moon.”“Allow my name to stay out of your lips.” She said irritated by the affectionate way he called her. “See, someone is coming

When nothing of such happened, I slowly receded into my room with the parcel in my hand. It felt a little heavy, I had to use both hands. Sitting on the side of my bed, I kept the parcel, studied it, and contemplated sneaking out to meet Liam first. “But…”Okay, never mind, I will just open it slowly. Drawing it carefully close to me, I take my time unwrapping the carefully packed parcel just in case there is a need to repackage it back the way it was packaged.Inside this beautifully wrapped package, I saw two other wrapped packages. By this time, my heart was thundering. What if I blow up? Or is something harmful in the parcel? Another unwanted memory flashed in my mind, but I blinked it away.Picking one parcel and throwing care into the wind. I tore it open to see a little note attached to the attractive-looking
