Present Day
Ren's POV
I standing in the middle of a forest; a light fog hovered around me but I can still make out my surroundings. Dawn had just broke and the morning dew was still fresh on the ground. I stood in place but turned my body in a circle. Why am I here?
An echo of a woman's giggle sounded through the trees which sparked my attention. I turned in the direction of the sound and started making my way over. "Reeeen" a soft voice sang followed by another giggle.
"Reeeeen" she said again and I sped my pace towards her. Hearing her voice gave me so much comfort I didn't want to stop hearing it.
"Hello?" I called back out but she only giggled in response. I kept walking until the sun peeked through the trees ahead to expose a part of a clearing.
"Ren please hurry" the voice spoke again.
I found myself jogging to this mystery woman. I pushed past trees and av
Kaia's POVLaying in my bed and never leaving is the best decision my defeated mind can come up with right now. Even if I wanted to get up, my body had molded itself in my mattress and the sheets held me hostage in my comfort. Blaire had gone home an hour ago after spending the whole weekend with us to make sure I was okay. She spent the first two hours of her awakening this morning attempting to lift my spirits enough for me just to eat some breakfast before she left for work.I didn't want to eat, drink or think. I wanted to sleep. Maybe if I continue this long enough I can die in this bed and my dad could only nag me from the afterlife when he meets his end too. Saige and Blaire had sworn to secrecy not to tell a soul that my mate is human. They asked if I knew his name and I told them no. The minute I smelled him, all I can think about is all the ways my dad could blame me for being such a disgrace that the Moon Goddess gave me a human mate. He wou
The next few days, I have been a nervous wreck. After getting home with Elios in Ren's hoodie, Saige has been jumping off the walls in excitement for me. She's already trying to plan out what our kids' names could be and just the thought of having kids with Ren made my heart flip but we only just met. I had to calm her down several times and bring her back to reality with the help of Elijah. But one thing I do thank her for is pushing me to text him later that night; we eventually turned texting into talking over the phone and we were up until two in the morning which I regretted because I had to lead training at 6 in the morning.But a whole week has gone by and Ren had asked me out on a date tonight. Our relationship compared to how Saige and Elijah were is extremely slow paced; they were in bed within days of knowing each other and Ren and I have managed to give each other space which isn't something I wanted. I would often catch myself growing anxious when he would run er
**This chapter gets steamy towards the end**"Kaia? What are you doing here? Its 5:30 in the morning" Bastian asked, pulling his arms through his shirt. He looked like he was in the middle of getting ready when I knocked; his hair is a tousled mess, his pants still hung on his hips, his shirt was still wide open exposing his chest and he was barefoot."You never got back to me about watching Ren train with everyone. I figured I could beat you guys this morning and join you" I explained, pushing past him to enter his home.Bastian opened his mouth to speak but then sighed and closed the door. He walked past me to go into the kitchen, "You like coffee?" he asked."I had some before coming over. Thank you" I told him as I walked around to look at the pictures since I was soaking wet last time and didn't look around in fear of getting the floor dirty. I saw pictures of Bastian and Asumi's wedding, pictures of Ren and his brother and family ph
15 Years AgoBellatrix's POVThe door to the library opened wide and Saige came running at full force, "Mommy! Mommy! Look aren't I the prettiest princess ever?" Saige called out happily with a pink tiara on her head that matched her Sleeping Beauty costume. Kaia followed close behind her with her head buried in a book. I smiled at my daughters as they walked into the pack library where I found sanctuary. Saige ran up to me whereas Kaia sat in the chair beside me."You look beautiful sweetheart" I complimented and pulled her into my lap. "Where is your princess dress Kiki?" I asked Kaia."Dad said I'm going to be Luna soon and I shouldn't associate myself with childlike activities" she replied, not looking away from her book.I laughed lightly and pushed the book down so she can focus on me. "But my darling you are only 10. You technically are still a child" I reminded her.The large library door opened once
Present DayI gasped loudly in shock and sprung up to a sitting position on my bed. The same damn nightmare cursed me again tonight making my heart race with fear. The fire, my pack, my siblings' heads hitting the floor, and that damn villainous smile plagued me. I placed a hand over my heart and ran a hand over my sweaty face in an attempt to calm me down but the longer I sat here, the more anxious I grew. I pulled the sheets off of me and quickly ran out to the hallway. I walked down the hall to Saige's room and gently opened the door to peek inside. I sighed with contentment when I saw her sleeping peacefully in Elijah's arms."Thank goddess" I whispered and closed her door. I walked across from her room and opened Elios's door hoping to see him asleep as well but my heart fell when I found his bed empty and he wasn't in his gaming chair either.I swung the door open and began searching his room for any sign of him. "Elios?" I tried to keep m
Running to the library with Ren following close behind, I felt nothing but shock and betrayal that my father would have the gull to not only cheat on the goddess that was my mother but he did it with a vampire woman. He has the audacity to talk down on every other species but having sex with a vampire and impregnating her was okay for him. That son of a bitch.Not only was I angry at my father, I also held some anger towards Saige and Elijah for breaking something my mother held dear and we tried to keep it in the best condition but since they decided to be reckless, horny teenagers it is now broken.I flung the doors open and the sight of the broken wood sprawled across the floor only made me angrier and I sent a death glare to my sister and brother in law. Elijah took a protective stance in front of Saige but he forgot that I had the Alpha tone in me and I could use it whenever I damned well please. "Kaia, please I'm so sorry" Saige tried to squeeze in front of her m
It felt like time was frozen in place. Everyone stopped to look at my father as he glared daggers at me and Ren. I felt it was difficult to breathe; as if my lungs were being constricted by fear and refused to take in air. My body refused to move. I desperately wanted to shield Ren from my dad. He had a look in his eyes with murderous intentions and I'll be damned if he tries to lay a hand on my mate.Around me I saw others running to hide their mates and I don't know if my dad picked up on their scent or not but I'm praying he didn't. He seems too focused on Ren to care about anything else right now.Saige slowly turned around to face him but she knew better than to get near him. "Hi daddy. What brings you here?" she asked nervous sweetness. Elijah stood behind her and held her by her shoulders in case of any sudden lunges, he can push
I woke up the next morning with a crick in my neck. I kept my face looking towards Ren all night; afraid that he would wake up before me and leave but when I opened my eyes he was still there sound asleep in the bed beside me. I sighed in relief and attempted to at least sit up. I forced myself on my ass and swung my legs over the side of the bed and tried to move my neck around without injuring myself. The door to the infirmary opened and Juliet walked in with a red apple in her mouth, coffee in one hand and a clipboard in the other.Her light green eyes found my brown ones and she rolled them playfully before setting down the clipboard down so she can grab her apple out of her mouth. "Only you would be awake at the crack of dawn. Luna, you need to rest" she scolded me before taking a bite of her breakfast."I'm a Luna. I'm always up b
11 years ago….. Bellatrix’s POV “Baby mine, don't you cry. Baby mine, dry your eyes. Rest your head close to my heart. Never to part, baby of mine” I started to sing as I gently rocked Elios in my arms in the living room. He stirred and yawned before snuggling against my breast with his eyes half way open. I chuckled lightly and ran a finger over his cheek. How beautiful is he? “Don’t be like that Elios” I whispered. “Little one, when you play. Don't you mind what they say. Let your eyes sparkle and shine. Never a tear, baby of mine” I heard the wood creak behind me and sweet scent of honey nectar crept in my nostrils and I smiled, “If they knew all about you. They'd end up loving you, too. All those same people who scold you. What they'd give just for the right to hold you” I continued singing even after feeling Ophelia’s arms wrap around my waist and rested her head on my shoulder. “From your head to your toes. You're not much, heaven knows. But you're so precious to me. Sweet a
Four months later….. Saige’s POV Elijah placed a hand on my shaking leg to steady myself and brought his lips close to my ear, “My love relax. We’re just meeting her today. We don’t need to make a decision right away” he assured me. I exhaled deeply and placed a hand over his, “I know but I’ve read her file over and over again and something is pulling me towards her. I’m just afraid that it’ll turn out like those Lifetime movies” I whispered. I gulped as I looked around the small home of our potential surrogate. “You watch too much television. Just relax. Like I said we don’t need to decide today” he repeated just as the petite brunette walked back into the living room with a tray of lemonades for us. “I apologize for the slight mess. I babysit my nephews m
Kaia’s POVPenelope Wildes.My third mother figure and one of the most important people in Blaire’s life.The same woman who left her family 9 years ago without so much as a letter.She came to me a few days ago and now she’s here again to help us end this once for all.She’s just as I remember her to be; beautiful blonde waves, big brown eyes, and a heart shaped face. Blaire is the spitting image of her mother which is why she died her hair dark to keep that longing look out of her father’s eyes.Cassius laughed sinisterly and stood to his feet, “Little Witch! What a wonderful surprise!” he exclaimed.Penelope glared at him and raised her hands, “This ends now Cassi
Ren's POV"Please take Hades from me. I would like to speak to your mate in the meantime and Rebekah is too far along to carry a 5-year-old" Ares added sternly to Kaia while sending daggers in my direction. I stirred in my seat.Kaia approached him nervously and held her arms out for the boy to willingly fall into. He stared into her big doe eyes for a few moments before smiling and reaching for her. She lifted him into her arms and I watched him snuggle against her. She supported his weight and turned to Rebekah who smiled fondly at the interaction. I found myself smiling too and thinking about how our kids would be so lucky to have a mother like my darling."Okay Councilwoman. Please follow me" she said and led her out of the ballroom. She sent me some reassurance through our link before exiting the doors. Which calmed my nerves just enough for me not to shit my pants.Ares pointed his head towards the other side of the room, away from
Kaia's POVAs I walked down the stairs with everyone, I took my time analyzing the guests who were arriving. Witches, warlocks, demons, and a few vampires have decided to join us. Everyone dressed according to the theme which brought a smile to my face; flapper dresses, pant suits, fedoras, and even everyone's hair was styled for the part. It also comforted me to know that some of our guests heeded our warning and hid their weapons well under their clothing.My eyes landed on Damon who was greeting everyone at the door. What I would give to take his ass down right now. I can't believe he tricked me and my entire pack into believing this fake persona. If he laid a finger on any of the children, I swear I will make him suffer.Damon looked up the stairs, smiled and waved at us as we approached the main floor. What I wanted to do? Rip his throat out. What I ended up doing? Smiling and waving back. The utter disgust that I felt when doing the action

19 years ago…. Ren’s POV “Ren honey did you hear what Bastian explained?” my mom called to me from the front seat. I turned my head away from the window and looked up into the rear view mirror to see her eyes. I smiled and nodded, “Yes mommy. He said the new park we’re going to has supernaturals and I should be on my best behavior” “That’s right honey. Are you excited?” “Yeah! I get to make new friends!” I exclaimed cheerfully. Bastian smiled at my outburst and turned us into the park’s parking lot. He found a spot quickly and placed the car in park. He took his seatbelt off and turned in his seat to look at me. “Okay Ren time for a pop quiz. Are you ready?” I giggled and nodded, wiggling e
Elios’s POVHow long has it been? Days? Weeks? With the lack of windows, it’s hard to tell when a new day has started and ended. The only way I can tell that time passes if when a servant comes and serves Aziel a large platter of food and only throws us three pieces of bread and half a cup of water throughout the day.The small amount of food and water isn’t enough to help my healing especially since I don’t have a wolf yet. I can only rely on my Lycan blood to fight against the scorching feel of the silver on my wrists and ankles. The metallic mixed with flesh burning stench was all anyone could smell when entering here. With my silver chains, Jax restricted by the blessed chains and Astrid being held captive with iron I’m sure that the atmosphere is more than unpleasant.Speaking of un-pleasantries, Aziel has sa
***THIS CHAPTER HAS SEXUAL CONTENT***Saige’s POVI can’t believe this. This can’t be true can it? This is the worst nightmare I’ve had in months. I know Aziel is upset at us but why take it out on Elios? He’s truly the most innocent one among us. I’m certain that once I open my eyes, I’ll see his beautiful face right next to me. He didn’t get taken away from us. He’s right here. I outstretched my arm in search of his small body. My heart perked up when my hand grabbed onto a small wrist but I couldn’t stop my disappointment when I opened my eyes to find Kaia sleeping beside me in Elios’s bed.I can see the streaks of dried tears on her face and the dark circles under her eyes. It would be best not to wake her now. She’s barely getting enough sleep as it i
