Eloise’s POV:

I woke up groggily, clutching my head. I had been swimming in the most amazing scent and didn’t think I would fall asleep.

I snapped. Wasn’t it Kaden’s scent I was nuzzling just now?

My eyes popped wide open and I looked around. A breath of relief left my mouth seeing that I am back in the hotel. I clutched my hair, yawning, and froze when I realized something else.

How on earth did I get here?

“Nice of you to finally wake up.” Someone murmured.

My head snapped to a scrutinizing Abbie sitting across my bed all ready in her training shorts and sports bra. I furrowed my brows, raised my head to look at the time.

“sh*t!”

I’m late!

I jumped out of bed and practically bolted for the shower.

Abbie’s hard glare burned into my back, but if she wanted to say anything before I departed she chose to keep her mouth shut.

I took a quick shower, grabbed a towel, and threw on the first pair of training clothes I had stored in the closet.

When I turned to put on my daily mascara and lip

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   92 - See you at dinner?

    92Eloise’s POV:“Good morning, Alpha!”Pack members greeted him as he glided over to me. Everyone bowed their heads to him in submission, and to show respect, they did not raise their heads unless told to do so.“Raise your heads.” His gruff voice rang through the high walls surrounding the training area.I rolled my eyes.Show off.I refused to meet his gaze even though, until now, he did not take his eyes off me. Not for a second. He stood beside me, his scalding gaze burning into my skin.The moment I saw him look away and face the pack members from my peripheral, relief flooded me.“As you all are aware, Alpha Eloise will be leading you all to training today,” he spoke with full authority, making me glance at him, “For now, you are to treat her as your alpha,”My eyes widened as I ignored the immediate murmurs that spread across the whole crowd.“I expect you all to follow her command smoothly.” And with that, Kaden stepped back and gestured to me as if he wanted me to take the st

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   93 - Join me?

    Eloise's POV: In the middle of break. Grinding my teeth, I pulled out my phone and texted Dad. An unknown number called earlier, saying it was him. I saved it just in case. I meant to visit the house to see how he and Mum are doing starting today. I know he's been doing it for a year, but leaving Dad alone with a wolf-turned-vampire did not sit well with me. After all, he is my dad. I worry about him. Me: Text me if anything goes wrong. Alpha Kaden insisted pack dinner, and I have to attend. Him: Sure, El. Your mother will be fine. She's sedated. Reading his message, I felt a pang in my heart. More than anything, I wanted to be there for her right now. If only Alpha Kaden weren't being such a prick. I thought to myself for a moment. I started typing, hesitating for a few seconds before pressing send. Me: You're not coming? It took him a while to respond. In a few moments, his text notification popped up. Him: I don't attend pack dinners anymore, El. He doesn't? My brows fur

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   94 - Everyone, out!

    Eloise’s POV:We walked together to the dining hall.Apart from the training grounds, I practically don’t know my way around here.Logan and I made small talk.In about five minutes, I found out that he left the pack when he was 16, sent off by his father to live abroad. His uncle died recently, hence why he decided to return to the pack.I still can’t help my eyes from wandering as I took in his scar. It was huge.“It happened when I was 16,” he suddenly said, making me look up at him.“Huh?”What were we talking about again? I asked Adeline.If she was listening to our conversation, she chose not to answer and gave me the silent treatment. She’s still pissed I shoved her back.Logan pointed to his huge scar.“Oh,” He must have noticed me staring.“You don’t have to, I mean, if it’s not okay.”He shook his head, “No, I actually kind of like it.”I blinked, shocked.“We were just kids, Kaden and I,” he began, and I already assumed the worst.“He did not do that to you, did he?”Logan

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   95 - You're mine

    95Eloise’s POV:“Everyone, out!” he growled in a low, deadly tone that had everyone in the dinner hall scrambling off and away from us.His alpha command pierced everyone who is a pack member of the Blood Hounds Pack. Everyone but me.Although none of them were finished with dinner, their faces drained of blood as well as appetite the moment his commanding aura rushed out.“Need back up?” Logan suddenly whispered, leaning against me. I blinked at him, wondering why the command didn’t compel him to tuck tail and run. But I remember his relation to Kaden. I guess it had something to do with their blood ties. Maybe he is of Alpha blood?His action though was enough to trigger another growl from Kaden, who shot me a look, daring me to utter a word.“I can stay if you want?” Logan offered.“She doesn’t fucking need anything, not from you,” Kaden snarled, turning his glare to Logan.I folded my arms against my hardened breasts.“I can speak for myself. Thank you, Alpha.” I reacted sarcasti

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   96 - Bring it on!

    Eloise’s POV:“Kaden!” I squealed as I started banging my fists on his sturdy back. This would be so much easier if he wasn’t so goddamn rock hard.I gritted my teeth.I thrashed and thrashed against him. Yet, none of my efforts to get off of him worked the magic they were supposed to. Usually, I would have easily maneuvered my body in the right position to kick him right where it hurts, in his giant pair of balls, but my attempts were futile as he had me hauled over his back every time I dared to move.A frustrated grunt left my lips before I hear the sound of doors slam open.Panic swept through me. Something about the feeling of restraint and being forced into a room triggered a sense of rebellion that had me looking desperately, for a way out.All I could see is his perfectly-shaped ass as I hung over his masculine body.Kaden grunted and I felt him move, perhaps to throw me between the pillows and pin me against the mattress. I refused to let my mind linger on the actions he is a

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   97 - One chance

    Eloise’s POV: Kaden smirked at my challenge. Everyone knew the Dark Alpha rarely gets any, but when he does, he makes sure nobody challenged him again.Least that’s what the rumors say.For years, I haven’t heard a single rumor about him back home. Alexandra run a silent and very private pack. For five years, we lived a pretty simple life. The only thing that set us apart from the other packs was that we trained hard. Every single day.Even now, I could see Kaden have yet to truly acknowledge the fact that I am an Alpha, a warrior among others.Let’s just prove it to him again, then. Adeline mused.My wolf isn’t afraid of anything. In fact, she was extremely thrilled to wipe the floor with her mate. I could tell she missed the wolf inside him.Rictus. Adeline spoke.His wolf’s name. She beamed. She sounded as if she just heard the name of her favorite food.You are speaking to him? I raised my brow at Adeline who simply nodded much too enthusiastically.He reached out to me first.

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   98 - A shadow

    Eloise's POV:It was dark outside and everyone seemed to have gone to their respective houses after a dinner cut short by their arrogant Alpha. When I passed by the main hall, my eyes subconsciously darted to a table. It was empty and plates of food had scattered on the floor. I felt my face heat and my body ache as if it remembered how the arrogant prick pinned us on that very surface, before I snapped out of it. Suddenly, a vile image that involved Kaden and I smashing more plates across the floor flew into my mind like a boomerang. My face turned even hotter as I willed my body and mind to stop collaborating with each other to makes things even more difficult than it is.Then, I stormed away from the dining hall and headed straight for the exit, only for a gush of wind to blow right into my face. Yet, I was grateful for it. It's as if the universe took it upon itself to slap me across the face when I couldn't.Within a minute, I stood out the porch with my eyes closed, instea

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   99

    Eloise's POV:"sh*t!" I hissed the moment it lunged straight at me and out of the darkness it had blended in.How long had it been there?I could feel its eyes staring into me until now. As if by pure instinct, I jumped out of the way. My body turned back to face a wolf, slightly larger than Adeline by an inch. Its coat a magnificent gray with sparkling golden eyes as it stalked towards me, like a predator would its prey.Adeline growled menacingly, our canines bared and ears pointed downwards with caution, readying for him to attack. We could tell it was a male wolf, and Adeline snarled low in warning, yet also daring the wolf to come to her.One more step, and he's dead. She snarled. I nod to her in agreement, trusting in her strength and mine. We've clashed fangs with a lot more wolves with the same size, some even bigger. It was back when we were out guarding Alexandra's territory, and rogues would often come attacking border patrols while reeking high on lust. Rogue Alphas turn

    Eloise's POV:"Beta Colton," the brown wolf tilted his head in submission as soon as he shifted into his human form.The gray wolf whose eyes had been filled with lust lowered his head as he turned to face a fuming Colton stomping over towards us. His nostrils flared and fists clenched into balls by his sides."What do you think you're doing?" He questioned the gray wolf as he stopped before him.The wolf's fur stood abruptly in fright, its body trembled despite his large size."W-We thought they were trespassers, Sir," he stuttered, I heard only because we shared a mindlink.Beta Colton growled, allowing some of his livid aura onto the scared wolf."I will deal with you later." He growled lowly before he turned his gaze back to me."Luna?"I turned my back to him, showing him Abbie's weakened body that hugged my back.The moment his eyes landed on her, his eyes widened and he rushed over, shoving the two wolves aggressively aside in the process."What happened to her?" He spat in the

    Eloise’s POV:Home. I had to go home.If it’s true… then I’ll have to see it for myself.My wolf’s paws landed on the ground after I shifted, my back elongating as fur sprouted all over my skin, my full face morphing to Adeline’s true form.I didn’t need to tell her what to do. She knew my thoughts as much as I knew hers. And back there, we had the exact same thought.This couldn’t be just a coincidence. I told myself, feeling Adeline’s silent nod in agreement.Adeline kicked her legs, paws thudding against leaves and branches scattered along the ground. Our clothes tucked between her sharp canines. We made sure we wouldn’t end up naked when we arrive home.“We’re getting close. Hang tight.” Adeline said, making me tuck into myself closer knowing full well the meaning behind those words.She was going to run at full speed. Adeline may not be the largest wolf out there, but she sure run fast.Over time, our strength improved, too.And I hoped that would be enough to face what lurked be

    Eloise’s POV:His jaw ticked, and I saw his hands clench into fists at his sides. He should have expected this. He knew. He was going to take them away the moment we are found, and I would have lost the only thing that was keeping me alive, away from the brink of insanity I would have fallen deeply into a long time ago.I glared up at him, not backing down.He won’t take my kids away from me, I assured myself as my chest was beginning to rise and fall in rapid motion. They’re safe. Out and away from this wretched city where all the devils reside.The only thing keeping me from giving in to my anxiety was the fact that they are safe.Thick, heavy silence fell in the air between us. It was almost suffocating.“I want to meet them,” he said after a moment, voice low but demanding. I could feel his aura circling me as if he was prepared to shove me with it.My teeth gritted as I glared up at him.“No.” I said fiercely in a dismissive tone.My decision was final.He is not going to take th

    Eloise’s POV:I pursed my lips thinly, meeting his glare but when I saw the sheer determination and even pain in his eyes, I eventually gave in.I sighed, “Kaeron, Kai, and Kiara,”He raised a brow.“All started with K?”I smirked, “Don’t get me wrong, I just had them all prepared,”Kaden pulled his lips into frown, going silent for a few moments before he let out a sigh of his own.“Can I at least see a picture?”His question knocked me off of my breath. It can’t be helped. Adeline muttered. She’s like the conscience whispering to me every time I had to make a choice. I groan.What if he sees them, and he wants to take them away? I shudder at the thought as I stare up at the man who I saw as nothing more than the sperm donor of my pups. I let him ruin my life once. I won’t let him do it again when he takes them away from me.He wouldn’t. Not under my f*cking watch. Adeline hissed. Her determination is brewing quietly like a storm in the distance, I could feel it. Adeline is much mor

    Eloise’s POV:I couldn’t even begin to visualize what my wolf thrust into my headspace.I never saw it. Not even after the one time he knocked me up. I was drunk!My legs shook dramatically, threatening to give out from under me. I must admit, the only thing holding me in place was Kaden, pressing me up against the lockers.His large, calloused hand went back to clench my thigh. His touch wasn’t rough but firm, and enough to send electrifying sparks all over my body while continuing to rub circles around my sensitive cl*t.I was panting, breathless. The only sound that could be heard in the locker room was my pants as well as his rugged breaths, husky and so damn attractive.My arousal still tinged the air and I scrunched up my nose. The scent remained and I feared it would stay here up until a week. Wolves’ senses are incredibly strong, but not without a downside. All the males will probably be smelling my arousal for a period and they can even tell who the scent came from.So what?

    Eloise's POV:CL? Who the hell is CL? My wolf growled, racking my brain for any clues behind the initials.I stared at the note blankly for a few seconds.Shaking my head, I stripped off my bra and leggings, and rummaged for fresh clothes with the note still in my hand before the sound of the door unlocking had me straighten as I thrust the note into my locker.Kaden Kyson walked in with a dark look looming over his face, his eyes scanning the room before falling on me and my near-naked body. His dark eyes took in my undressed state, and I grit my teeth as I shoot glares at him.I had no choice but to wrap my arm around nipples, preventing Kaden to notice how they became hard in less than a minute when he stepped into the locker room. I shifted in my barefeet.He likes what he sees… Adeline giggled at the back of my mind, making me shush her and roll my eyes.“If you haven’t heard, training is over.” I declared, shooting daggers at him.He clenched his jaw as he walked over to me, ign

    Eloise’s POV:No.No, no, no, no.I’m not going to ask for his help.Why not? My wolf grumbled.He’s our only chance.I shook my head.There is another way. You know what Dad said. If he finds out Mom turned into a vampire because I told him about this, he’ll kill her. Hell, maybe he’ll even conspire with the other alphas to kill us all, for protecting a vampire.I could feel Adeline’s hesitance, but thankfully she didn’t add anything more to it and retreated back into the depth of my subconscious.I groan, willing my heart to stop thundering like crazy in my chest.Anyone, anyone but him. Kaden Kyson is known for his mercilessness and power unmatched by anyone. Surely, he would not spare a turned vampire. Not even if she’s the mother of his mate.I tossed and turned all night, unable to forget everything that transpired from the black and blue bruises I saw on Dad’s arms and the mysterious guys who sauntered into the house like it’s their own.My father didn’t look like he was about

    Eloise’s POV:“Run! Don’t stop, don’t look back, run!”Dad’s voice boomed in my head just as I clamped my eyes shut, anticipating the closet doors to be yanked open when I felt cold breeze rustle through my hair instead.When I open my eyes, I blink. Once, twice, until I finally came to a conclusion that what I am seeing is real.I stood frozen at the forest just outside of my father’s house, my heart thumping harder than I remember as it threatened to explode in my chest.Panting, I look around and back at the house as questions filled the back of my mind.What the h*ll just happened there?And how did I even get out of the house before I could bat an eye?I don’t understand…It seems we were teleported here. Adeline finally spoke, however the words she just said was the last thing on my mind.Teleported? You’re not making any sense… I say to Adeline, who immediately fell silent.When it takes a while for her to respond, I turned my gaze back to the house and squint at the largest wi

  • My Luna, My Son, My Regret   117

    Eloise's POV:The man practically tried to kill you, El. Adeline hissed, but at this point, I’m not so sure anymore. I’m not sure because when I look into his eyes, all I see is the pain he’s hiding inside.There’s something more that he isn’t telling me. I can feel it. He’s hiding something, but I am yet to figure out what.He pulls down his sleeves, tucking it away and off of my sight as if thinking it would disgust me. But it don’t.“What can I do?” I choke, staring blankly at his covered sleeve.Then, determination surged through me as I glanced at the basement door where my Mum is locked. A weak thumping sound can be heard behind the door as if she was asking to be let out.Dad glances in the same direction, when something dawned over me.“I can help,” I whisper, staring off into the locked door of the basement.All my life, I never thought Mum would end up at such a place. Forced into a cage in our own basement… I shudder, feeling my heart tighten in my chest. So much so, I coul
