Chapter- 9 Alder’s POV “Mother,” “Alder,” she came and hugged me. I know my mother is the happiest person now. She wanted me to divorce Sirena, she had been telling that whenever we meet. I got so frustrated to hear all those bashings and avoided to meet her. She waited for all these years to hear this news. “I am glad that you’re free now,” she said. “Mother, please,” “Don’t feel bad, Alder. You can marry Grace now. I always tell you that she’s the perfect match for you,” I rolled my eyes, “You’re wrong.,” I said. “What do you mean?”“I am not going to marry Grace or anyone,” “Why?”“Because I can’t forget Sirena,” “Have you lost your mind? You rejected her,” “Yes, I did because she asked for it but I don’t have any desire to divorce her,” She’s so surprised to hear that from me, she thought I hated Sirena. It’s not only her, everyone, including Sirena perceived that was the truth. I am a jerk, I couldn’t be truthful to anyone in my life, even to myself. I liked Sirena bu
Chapter- 10 Sirena’s POV It’s been a week since I came here. I am making myself busy with work and in the other times, I sleep and spend my time in solitude. I like this new life compared to my old one. Raven was always there to help me and I spent most of my time with her. She’s such an interesting character but she said that she learned that from me. I am surprised to know how different I was in the past. I am not that frightened girl who’s hesitant to speak up for herself. I badly wanted to remember those fifteen years that has vanished from my memories. I want to be the person that everyone admire, I want to be fearless, like melody. My past hold so many secrets, I want to know who framed me and who wanted to kill me. Someone with such an audacity drove me out of this pack. I want to know who hates me in this pack, that person could be a threat to my father and to everyone. I need to find out and get that person out of my life, that’s always in my mind whenever I meet someone
Alder’s POV Frank and I were on our usual rounds on the pack’s ground. We were silent ever since we shifted, which is so unlikely. Understanding that I am going through so many things, he kept silent. I have been avoiding everyone, I lost interest to train and my daily routine has been completely altered. I shifted back to my human self and climbed on the tree to Mahogany tree to look at the red moon pack borders My mind and heart were constantly thinking about Sirena. Her real name is Melody, she was such an outgoing, hardworking, brave and fighter when she was in the red moon pack and after leaving me, she’s doing so great now. I couldn’t take it, each moment I have been tormented by regret. I hate to be alone in the villa and in all the places where Sirena been to. If I get a chance, I will bring her back. I know Sirena will chose to come back to me. Her love isn’t simple, she can’t forget me that easily but still, I am afraid a little. When I went to their pack, Alpha James as
Sirena’s POV Sitting on the window sill, I looked at the moon. My wolf is tempted by the gracious spread of moon’s glimmer. I am not ready to shift and wander in the woods. Alder occupies my mind; he’s not letting me to move an inch. Raven said she’d sent the message to Alder and I know he will come tomorrow. Ever since I heard that, I can’t think of anything else, I am passing my time, sitting here. I can’t able to close my eyes and I am wondering what I am going to do tomorrow. I lied to my father, it’s not my nature to talk that way to my mate and I am not allowed go with him either. It’s going to be hard tomorrow but I will get through this. I got down from the window sill and walked to the bed, the time is half past two, these days I couldn’t sleep early. I got inside the comforter and closed my eyes to sleep. Suddenly I heard a whisper near my ears, “Don’t meet him tomorrow,” it said. I squinted my eyes. “Lulu is that you?” I asked. “What?” Lulu woke up and she’s so e
Alder’s POV“It’s so heart-breaking compared to when I uttered those rejection words,” Benau said.I nodded. Frank is hesitant to speak to him. Whatever he says, that might weird this situation so he remained silent.“Alder…” Frank started.“I don’t want to hear anything, Frank,” I snapped. I don’t want to hear anything from anyone. It’s just too frustrating for me to think what a fool I am.“Then I will go to the packhouse,” Frank said and walked to the other side.I walked aimlessly into the woods; my mind kept bringing the memories I shared with Sirena. There were a lot of moments, I loved her and admired her without her knowing. From now on, I can’t have her as his mate, that I understood well. I’m vexed by the thought and sat down on the rock. It hard for me to process what I heard from Sirena. I feel the pain of rejection, it’s killing me from inside.“Sirena must have felt the same way last time,” Benau said.I know I am such a monster. I never once thought about how our life wo
Sirena’s POV“I am going to France, with Xander,” I said to Raven. We both were in the cafeteria having lunch. “Okay, that’s great. Have fun,” Raven said and I didn’t expect such an answer from her.“Don’t you have anything to say?”“What do you want me to say?” “I am going to travel alone with him. Tell me about him?” “Xander is like a big brother to me. He’s very professional, you’re close with him when you were here,” Raven had a sly smile when she said that. “Close means?” she asks. “Close, that’s it. I don’t know,” Raven shrugged. I frowned to hear that. “You have to give me a proper answer,”“Sis… you’re too young. You both are like best friends,” she said. Yes, she’s right, I was too young and there’s no point in exploring that. “Okay,” I nodded. “Look, Xander is the most trusted person in this pack. You can go with him anywhere,” she said. After listening to that, I felt relieved. I think I can trust him; I no longer has any doubt over him.“I am just nervo
Sirena’s POVI got a little free time in the afternoon so I went to the cafeteria to have a cup of coffee. After ordering, I sat down in one of the empty tables and looked around. People here see me differently and I’ll smile at them to clear the awkwardness. My life history is the hot gossip in the office. Even I caught a couple of co-workers gossiping about me. I didn’t take that offending but still it’s not appropriate. They will speak for some days and then they will eventually forget about that when something else comes up.Awkwardly waiting for my coffee, I looked around. I didn’t pay attention to what the girls next to me were talking but when I heard the name Xander, I asserted my ears to hear their conversation carefully.“These days Xander looks incredibly handsome,” one of the girls said. She had a long auburn hair and looked beautiful. “I don’t think so, he’s getting old and he’s losing his charm,” the other one said. Hearing that comment, I frowned just like the other g
I stood before my house, Xander said he would come and pick me and I was waiting for him. Raven is standing next to me and she’s here to send me off.“Have you traveled with Xander?” I asked Raven. “Yes, a few times,” “How was he like?” “He will take good care of you and he expects your complete perseverance on your work,”“Okay,” I nodded. I was hesitant to ask this question but I couldn’t control myself. I am curious about this guy. “What about his mate? Have you seen her?”Raven smiled, “His mate, that’s a sad story,” “What is that?” I questioned right away. “Why are you curious about him?” she asks.“That’s because… I want to know,”Raven raised one of her eyebrows and stared at me. I’m letting her know that I am interested in him which is somewhat true but not in the way as they think.“Look, it’s not like what you think,” “I didn’t say anything,” she giggled and I frowned by her gesture.“Are you not going to tell me about the sad story?” I ask even knowing th
Sirena opened the door, and Xander’s mom’s picture that was hanging on the wall welcomed her. She walked in and looked around the room, the door closed on its own, and it jumped-scared her.“What’s going on here?” Lulu frowned.“Let me out, I will take care of this,”“No, I’ll handle this,” Sirena said.She looked around the room, “Hello, you can talk to me instead of trying to scare me away, we are alone,” she said in her low voice.Suddenly she could see the foggy ghostly figure in front of her. She tried to reach out to it but it passed right through her.“What do you want? You can’t just play around me,” she said.“If you’re not going to tell me what you want, then I might find a way to stop you from getting close to me,” she said.“You wanted me to get out of this place? You asked me not to marry Xander, who are you?”“It doesn’t matter, you must leave this place and never come back. This isn’t your place,” it said.“I don’t understand, what are you saying? Why should I leave?” s
Raven left the pack after her wedding, it was hard to bit her goodbyes. She’s such a great sister and a daughter. Everyone is going to miss her for sure. Her visits to the pack will be limited from now on and she can’t be here whenever she wished and that kind of saddened Sirena.The only comfort she has other than Xander is Raven. If she’s gone, how will she cope when Xander is also not here? Sirena had That one big question but knew life would never be the same as she wanted. If she had to leave for a better future then as her sister, she had to support her decision and her growth.Sirena felt difficult for the first few weeks after Raven left and Xander made sure that she wasn’t feeling lonely. Being with Xander makes her life much better. She doesn’t feel lonely when she is with him.This is the vacation time for the pack so the wolves used to go to meet their distant relatives. Xander decided to take Sirena for a honeymoon this time. Usually, he wouldn’t go out of the pack at thi
It was Raven’s wedding; they were all overjoyed by the back-to-back celebrations after a long time and they’d invited many people even the ones they missed inviting to Sirena’s wedding. It’s crowded compared to Sirena and Xander's wedding. The wedding decorations were the epitome of grandeur. Her father spent a few shares of his wealth for both of his daughter’s wedding. He wants everyone to speak about it at least for a few years.Sirena got ready in her braid’s maid dress and watched her sister. Now she understood the pain of being a bridesmaid.She had to take care of everything. It’s only a month before she got married and now it's her sister.She can’t help but wonder how this one month has passed. It’s true that when you’re sad you’ll feel like the time is moving too slowly and when you’re happy it moves too fast. In this one month, she had a lot of beautiful memories with Xander which she won’t even forget until her last breath.Marrying Xander is the best decision she ever mad
Frank entered Alder’s office when he was looking into documents.“What?” he asked with a frown.“You won't believe who’s here,”“Who?”“Sirena’s father,”Frank said and I stood up from my chair.“What? Alpha Alder,”“Yes, and Xander is here too,”“Why they are here?”“I guess they are here to invite you,”“Invite me for?“Raven’s wedding,”“Oh,” Frank nodded and prompted to go and welcome them. They were in the waiting room. They were served with tea and biscuits but they didn’t touch it.Alder greeted them formerly and sat opposite them.“It’s a pleasure to have you in my place Alpha Alder,”“Pleasure is all mine, I came here to invite you to my daughter’s wedding,” he said.The way they have the same name has a long history. If his father was here then this situation wouldn’t have occurred. When Alpha Alder got to know that Sirena was in the shadow pack, he rushed to see his daughter. He got so pissed off that why his friend didn’t tell him that his only daughter is here and she got
Why do I feel like Sirena is never going to come back? What if she is never going to come back? I asked myself.“She’s not going to come back, that’s the reality,” Benau frowned. “And you better move on,” Benau said and Alder didn’t listen to that advice. He’s now in the phase of desperation and hearing news that Sirena is happily enjoying her married life makes his blood boil. He’s getting a lot of information regarding her personal life. Grace came here yesterday and said that Sirena has completely moved on.“You know what, Alder? This is how destiny works. There’s no place for you in her life and Xander has no place in my place. We are meant to be together, let’s get married soon,” she said.“No way, that’s going to happen. I’m not going to marry you or anyone,” he said.“You’re a fool, I have given you enough time. I don’t know how long I will be patient. Better decide something sooner,” she warned me and threw a few photos of Xander and Sirena’s being together. I looked at it, in
“I feel new,” Lulu said as they were headed to the shrine with Xander’s wolf Ares. They were shifted so that they could climb the hills without getting tired. When they reached, they shifted back to their human form. Xander kissed her, after last night he couldn’t keep his hands off each other. He often kisses her and they end up making love. Even this morning, they made love. The way Xander loves her is so different and it feels like it’s love.They were so much in love; this was the best feeling she ever faced. This is pure bliss and unintentionally she’s creating core memories. It’s slowly subsiding the memories she had with Alder. Alder doesn’t even cross her memories once and he’s out of her life officially.Life has changed a lot and she knew he might have done the same, thrown her memories out of his life. Who knows, he would have married Grace by now and was happy that everything was settled in the way he wanted it to be.They changed into the clothes they carried with them and
Xander looked into her eyes, a thousand things were unsaid but one thing he could understand was that she was in love with him and would fall in love with him after tonight. He pulled her to the bed and they fell on it.“Is it the right time?” Sirena asked Lulu because if she didn’t stop him now then she couldn’t stop it later and it’s going to be endless nights of passion.There’s no answer and as the moments pass, she feels something in the pit of her stomach.Xander isn’t in the state to stop. His wolf’s mind ran wild with a desire to be with her. Wants to claim her all to himself.With an intense desire on his face, he rose from the bed and took off his shirt. Sirena got hot and flustered to see his abs. He’s so perfect and Lulu is excited about it as well. Lulu wants this to continue so she’s keeping silent. She’s so sneaky in this situation.“Should I not stop him?” she asks Lulu.“If you’re going to stop then… will that change anything? Anyway, it’s your wish. If you think that
“Did you see a ghost again?”“No,” Sirena nodded, not showing any apprehensive reaction on her face.“Then why do you worry so much?” Raven asks, “If ghosts are haunting you then better tell me. I know a shaman. She helped me find my mate and she’ll help you figure this out,”“Who’s that Shaman?”“Her name is Pricilla, she’s a true master. I’ll take you there, okay,”“Sure,”“If there’s anything, you can tell me. We will sort out,”“Nothing for now and do you hide anything from me, Raven?”“What are you asking? Be specific,”“Is there anything you know that I shouldn’t know?” Sirena asked.“If you shouldn’t know then it’s better if you stay out of it. But as far as I told you, I don’t think there are any more secrets. If you have any doubts, you can ask me. I’ll clear it,”“I want to know how I ended up in shadow pack. That’s so strange and I want to have all my memories back,”“Okay, I understand your frustration. But everything needs time. Wait patiently and eventually, you will get
“Sirena,” Raven screamed and hugged her as soon as she got down from the car. They both were so happy to see each other after ten long days even though they spoke on the phone every day.“How are you? How was your trip?”“It was great and we had a great time,” she smiled and Xander who’s standing next to me, hugged her gently.“Did you look after my sister well?”“Yes, ask her,”“I can see it in her face,” she said and they smiled. Raven and Sirena went aside to talk about the other things they hadn’t shared on the phone. The sister’s bond is the best thing that happened to her after coming here. There are a lot of good things happening in her life.“So, where’s your mate?”“He’ll be here for the wedding,” Raven said.“Wedding, we have decided to get married after a week. That’s what I wanted to tell you earlier,”“That’s great news and I’m so happy for you,” I said.“So, what about your in-laws? Are they good to you?”“They are good to me and I got a lot of new friends there. They are
