Lucious POV. When Alex uttered those words, my eyes widened in shock, and a surge of confusion washed over me. What did he mean by "the blood moon"? I struggled to comprehend his words because they seemed too surreal, like some kind of twisted joke. "The blood moon?" I asked cautiously, needing confirmation that he wasn't jesting. He responded with a solemn nod. My heart sank like an anchor, and I involuntarily clenched my chest, feeling a sense of dread and foreboding that made my teeth grind together. The blood moon wasn't due for another two years, so what on earth had happened to bring it here prematurely? The question swirled in my mind, but I couldn't find an answer, as the reality of the blood moon hanging in the sky seemed undeniable. Anger bubbled within me as the weight of this revelation sunk in, and I felt another pang in my heart. These times were always fraught with uncertainty and danger, and it meant one thing: my quest to find Aurora would become even more c
A New Pack! Aurora's POV. I slowly opened my eyes, the world still appearing blurry as I struggled to make sense of my surroundings. A mild headache throbbed in the background as I squinted, attempting to understand what was happening. With effort, I pushed myself into a sitting position on the bed.The room was eerily quiet, which initially didn't trigger any alarm bells. I tried to ease back against the pillow propped against the headboard, seeking comfort and clarity."What's happening?" I mumbled, rubbing my forehead. Suddenly, the realisation hit me like a ton of bricks: this wasn't where I was supposed to be. Panic welled up within me."Oh no, where am I?" The questions tumbled from my lips, and my previously squinted eyes snapped wide open as I desperately scanned the unfamiliar surroundings, hoping for some understanding.Fear coursed through me, causing my body to tremble as if I were a bed drenched in a heavy rainstorm. This situation was far more challenging and unsettl
Her Weird Stare.Aurora's POV. "He was actually going to arrange for my treatment?" My eyes widened in astonishment, and I pursed my lips as I contemplated this revelation.I reclined on the bed, pondering how he could be so kind to a complete stranger like me. I had never encountered anyone quite like him before. He had welcomed me into his home and was even willing to summon a doctor based on the fabricated story I had spun. It did leave a twinge of guilt in me, but it wasn't an entirely false tale.No matter how hard I wracked my brain, I couldn't recall the circumstances that had landed me in this room in the first place, and that nagging mystery bothered me greatly.As he noticed my deep contemplation, he gently assisted me to sit up on the bed once more. His hands cradled mine so tenderly, prompting me to meet his gaze as I studied his features. I had never encountered someone as kind and compassionate as him. He exuded warmth and a genuine concern for my well-being that wa
She's A Threat!Aurora's POV."Why are you just standing there? Come closer," Noah gestured, his hands beckoning for her to approach.She complied, moving closer, but her gaze remained locked on me. I felt a sense of relief wash over me as her attention shifted to the alpha who was now giving her instructions."Make sure you take good care of her. I want her to be well, okay?" The alpha's words were met with a nod from her, but soon enough, her eyes returned to me. I couldn't help but gulp nervously, watching her take tentative steps towards me.At that moment, Noah withdrew his arms from mine, and I looked at him with fear in my eyes. I desperately didn't want him to leave me alone, so I reached out to try and grab his hands once more.My pleading eyes begged him to stay, and all I could do was hope that he would agree.Noah's reassuring smile washed away my worries as he told me he wasn't going anywhere. He promised to stay with me until the doctor finished her work, and that assura
She's A Spy!Aurora's POV. As the doctor's words pierced the air, a surge of intense emotions coursed through me. My eyes widened in sheer astonishment, my heart pounded like a thunderous drumbeat, and my hands quivered uncontrollably. The revelation I had just overheard sent shockwaves of fear and uncertainty rippling through my being.The Alpha, a towering figure of strength and authority, stood there with a bewildered expression etched upon his face. Anyone in his shoes would have been equally perplexed when confronted with such a dire pronouncement from a doctor. The gravity of the situation hung heavy in the air, and I couldn't help but wonder what thoughts were racing through his mind."Why did you say that?" he inquired, his voice trembling with genuine concern. It was only natural for him to seek answers, to grapple with the unsettling news that the person he had saved could potentially pose a threat to the entire pack. The questions must have been swirling in his thoug
His Warm And Reassuring Embrace!Aurora's POV. My eyes widened in sheer disbelief at what the Alpha had just uttered. My lips parted, but I couldn't find the words to respond. The shock I felt was noticeable, my face drained of colour, and I struggled to process the unexpected turn of events. I had anticipated that he would follow the doctor's advice and make the difficult decision to part ways, yet here he was, defying all expectations to stand by my side. It was a bewildering and heartwarming feeling."Are you se-ri-ous?" I stammered, my words coming out in halting bursts, my trembling lips mirroring the turmoil within me. Before I could articulate my thoughts further, he gently took hold of my hands, pulling me out of the room.It was undeniable, this Alpha had developed a deep affection for me. He had not only saved me but had also provided protection and care that exceeded even that of Lucious, the man who was supposed to be my husband. The realisation that someone I barely
Don't You Dare Call Her That!!!Noah's POV.I walked into my room, a smile playing on my lips. I had just hugged her, and she had welcomed it without objection. It was a feeling I had never experienced before, and it made me incredibly happy. It was clear to me that she loved me with all her heart.I pressed my lips together, my thoughts drifting back to how she had looked at me. Her gaze had a way of stopping me in my tracks, and I could tell from the admiration in her eyes that she held me in high regard.Her eyes were truly mesmerising, and no matter what anyone else might say, I wasn't about to let her go. She was mine, and I was determined to protect and cherish her.Lost in my thoughts, I hadn't noticed when my beta pushed open the door and peeked inside. "Alpha, you called?" He entered my room with an observant look on his face, watching me closely as he closed the door and approached where I sat.I nodded in response to my beta's question before I began to speak."What is
Aurora's POV. I found myself in the quietness of my room, my vacant gaze fixated on nothingness as deep, heavy sighs flowed from my lips. Safety had enveloped me within the shelter of this new pack, a group led by someone whose affection for me was boundless. However, despite the warmth surrounding me, my mind couldn't escape the relentless pull of memories from my past.Who was I fooling? Why was it so impossible to cease my thoughts from wandering back to Lucious? An anxious lump formed in my throat, and my eyes darted around in slow, torturous motion whenever his image invaded my mind.It was at this moment that I painfully acknowledged the truth; my heart had stealthily surrendered to Lucious, and even his chilling proclamation about our unborn child couldn't extinguish the flames of love that still burned within me.Once more, I expelled a weary sigh, sinking further into the embrace of the bed's headboard, my hands instinctively cradling my growing belly.
