Dimitri~•~After waiting a few more minutes, Katie finally opened the door. “What do you need my help with?” She asked in the meanest way possible. I signaled for her to keep quiet and follow me. I didn’t want Noah to hear what I was about to tell her. I didn’t really care if she heard or not but Aiden was going to kill me if I let her hear. Luckily enough, Katie agreed and followed me quietly. I led her downstairs to the living room so we could talk. My dad had already arrived from his mission where he went to check for the moonstone, and by the look on his face, the moonstone was actually gone. “Did you find it?” I asked my dad who was sitting on the couch in the living room. I still wanted to be sure so I couldn’t help but ask. He gave a pitiful nod. “No.” “This is where you come in.” I turned to Katie who was standing and staring at us with a puzzled look on her face. “What?” She asked, confused. “I need you to do a locator spell to find the moonstone.” I gave her a pl
Noah~•~It was only a day before the Howling Gala. It always happened twice a year. And it was done a day or two after a full moon. Katie was meant to go with me to shop for a new dress but I had canceled with her because she refused to tell me what she went downstairs to talk about with Dimitri. According to her it was a secret and she was keeping it away from me to protect me. I didn’t need any protection from anybody. The previous night was tiring because it was a full moon and we spent most of the night shifting in the woods. I was meant to be resting but I was excited to shop for a new dress. For some weird reasons, I found shopping therapeutic. And I was going to be going with Aiden. I literally forced him to go with me since I didn’t want to do it alone. I needed a second opinion on whatever choice I made. It was already 11 in the morning but everywhere was still quiet. I went downstairs to make breakfast for anyone who cared to eat. I was bored and I wanted to use cook
Dimitri ~•~I asked Katie to meet me at the pack house so she would try doing the spell again. She repeated everything she did the other day and this time, it worked. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw where her blood was spotted on the map. “This can’t be. There must be a mistake, try it again.” I chuckled in disbelief when she said the moonstone was in Lenora Hills and there was nothing humorous about it. Frustrated, I punched the wall in the living room. Did that girl betray me? Becky was the only person I knew from that town. She was also the only one close enough to me to find out where the moonstone was kept.I didn’t want to jump to a conclusion yet. There had to be another explanation or something. She wouldn’t do something like that to me. She wouldn’t steal from me. “There isn’t a mistake,” Katie replied with a scoff. “You should probably give your girlfriend a call.” She knew Becky was from Lenora Hills. I had dumped Noah for Becky when my father and I returned from
Noah~•~I went into the changing room to try on the dress with the help of the worker. When I came out, Aiden had a worried and confused look on his face. “What’s the problem?” “They found the person who stole the moonstone.” “Moonstone? Huh?” I asked, confused. “Pack the dress and deliver it to the house.” He instructed the worker, then took my hands and led me outside to the car. “What moonstone?” I asked again as we settled into the car. “You know how Katie has been hiding something from you? It is about the moonstone someone stole. Plus, that’s the reason Uncle Zach and Caro’s mum died.” He explained. My eyes widened at his reply. “Why did you guys have to hide it from me?” “We didn’t want you to worry. We wanted to find it first before telling you about it.” “So who stole the moonstone?” I asked with a worried voice. He took a deep breath before responding in a low tone. “It was Becky, we’re not sure yet but Katie did a locator spell that found the moonstone at Lenora
Noah~•~I went back to my room and showered again. My body was sweaty from all the things I had been doing. It was almost time for the gala and I was excited about it. I started with my makeup, I wasn’t the best at doing it but I had learnt a few things from YouTube. After I was done, I wore my dress and my shoes. ‘Come help me with my zip.’ I mind-linked Aiden and asked for help because I couldn’t do it on my own. In no time, the door swung open and Aiden appeared. He was already dressed in a silver-colored tuxedo. The two colors of the day were silver and blue. It was meant to match the theme for the Howling Gala, which was a moon-themed event. I turned around for him to help me zip up my dress. He ran his hands through my bare back and his touch sent a shiver down my spine. “Your scar.” His hands lingered towards that part and he kissed it. “It’s beautiful.” I took a deep breath, trying to calm the butterflies that were fluttering in my stomach. “Thank you.” I swallowed har
Noah~•~Dimitri was standing a few feet away, his arms crossed over his chest. He must’ve overheard our conversation. His eyes were cold and hard and he looked like he had been drinking. “What is he talking about?” Aiden asked in a low tone. “Oh, you haven’t told him about it?” Dimitri let out a mischievous laugh and walked closer to where we stood.All eyes were already on us and he was causing a scene. I felt embarrassed. I blinked my eyes multiple times as tears escaped from the corner of my eyes. “Dimitri shut up and stop being an asshole.” Aiden turned to his brother and yelled. He didn’t believe Dimitri, he probably thought he was playing a sick prank because he was drunk. He raised his hands in mock surrender and laughed. “I’m not being an asshole, ask your ‘girlfriend’.” He said the girlfriend in quotes as a form of mockery. I could hear Aiden breathing heavily. He asked me again. “Noah, what is he talking about?” This time, he was loud and angry. I couldn’t take it any
Noah~•~[Late event? Tap to let me know.]The notification from my period tracking app flashed on my screen again. I sighed and put the phone away. My period had been over a week late.I wasn’t worried at first. After all, I thought my cycle was just changing because I had sex. But when I checked the internet and read an article where they said we should be worried after the seventh day, I started freaking out. But I took the morning pill, so I didn’t see any reason to miss my period. I was nervous and I didn’t want to keep on worrying, so I decided to go to the drugstore to get a pregnancy test. I asked Katie to accompany me because I didn’t want to go alone. Luckily enough, she agreed. I stopped by at her house and we both went together. “What if I’m pregnant?” “Don’t even say that, you can’t be, you took the pills.” “But my period has never been this late.” “Let’s just be optimistic.” We made our way into the store and went to the section with pregnancy tests. There were d
Noah~•~I waited for a few minutes before removing the test strip from the cup. ‘Please be negative.’ I prayed silently before looking at it. My heart dropped as I saw what the result was. “Two lines?” I yelled and Katie came rushing into the bathroom. “Two lines?” She asked with a worried expression registered on her face. “Try it again, there must be some sort of mistake. These things aren’t accurate sometimes.” I hope there was actually a mistake. I tried staying calm while I opened the other test and placed it in the cup. I waited for a few seconds and checked to see the result. “Two lines? Fuck!” I cursed while tears welled in my eyes. I was fucking pregnant. I had sex for the first time and I got pregnant? What did I do to deserve that kind of punishment? I took the morning pills, I did everything right, and now I’m going to be having a baby. A baby for the worst person on this earth. I tried my best to wrap my head around the reality of the situation, but it was too much
Noah ~•~Aiden picked me up as soon as he saw my text. He took me home and I got cleaned up. I was worried about the way I felt good about my mother’s death but it had to be done. Katie stopped by the house to drop off my car and necklace before I even arrived. She sent me a text saying I should call her the next day. Aiden stayed in my room while I was in the shower. “So you’re happy now?” He asked when I got out of the bathroom. “I feel guilty taking their mother away from them but I had to do it,” I admitted, wiping my face with my face towel. “Anyways, I’m happy that my father has gotten justice for his death.” “I’m glad it’s over and I’m glad you didn’t get hurt,” Aiden whispered, pulling me closer to him. She was a hunter and everything could have gone wrong if she had also tried to kill me. “I’m glad it’s over too,” I said, leaning into his chest. “So let’s celebrate,” Aiden suggested, a mischievous expression registered on his face.I knew what he had in mind and I didn
Noah ~•~It had been over a month since the whole Katie and Jordan drama went down. Our college exams were also approaching. Katie decided she wasn’t going to let Jordan’s betrayal bring her down. She broke up with him and tried her best to avoid him whenever she was in school. Dimitri and Jessica started dating and she was practically at the house most of the time. Dimitri also spent a lot of time in Sparkle Falls. Ethan reached out to me and asked to spend a day with me. He wanted me to meet the rest of my siblings. Getting to know the strangers who shared the same DNA with me wasn’t a bad idea. Even if our worlds were different, it wouldn’t hurt to get to know them. I agreed to meet them during the weekend and the weekend was finally here. Their town was just an hour's drive away from Hawkins. Katie offered to accompany me there and to be by my side in case anything happened. It was still very early and I decided to spend my morning at the gym. I wanted to work out. I hadn’
Noah ~•~“Katie! Make it stop.” I yelled at Katie who had a wicked grin spread across her face. Aiden rushed to Angela to help her from the ground. After a few seconds, Katie stopped the migraines and Angela was back to normal. Dimitri and Aiden were pleading with Katie to stop while I took Angela to the car. I didn’t know what to do, the only thing I could think of was to call Scott. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and dialed his number. After trying about three times, I was about to give up, but I decided to try one more time. Fortunately enough, he picked up. “Hey, Noah. How are you?” “Scott, I’m not okay,” I said, my voice laced with fear. “What’s going on?” He asked. “It’s Katie, she’s behaving strangely,” I replied, running my hands through my hair. “She wants to take the moonstone from its original position.” “What?” Scott said, his voice laced with fear. “Why does she want to do something like that? It means putting the lives of the crescent moon pack in danger.”
Noah ~•~“Katie, you won’t do that.” My expression became serious but Katie looked so determined. “Do you know what it means? Random people would die. I would die, Aiden would die..” “But it wasn’t a problem when the Malley witches died?” She asked, giving me a disdainful look. I was shocked and I couldn’t believe we were even having such a conversation. “Katie, what has gotten into you?” I asked, a puzzled expression registered on my face. “Nothing, I just want justice for my people.” She said. “Girl, you don’t even know what they look like,” I replied with a scoff. A part of me felt she was just bored and joking because there was no way in hell she would take that moonstone and put everyone’s life in danger. Katie didn’t say anything else to me, she just walked out of the room. I didn’t know what she was up to, so I followed her. When we got downstairs, everyone could tell we just had a serious argument. They all stared at us with concern etched on their faces. Katie wanted
Noah ~•~After a short stroll, we arrived at Katie’s front door. I knocked on the door multiple times before someone answered the door. It was Dahlia who answered the door. She was so excited to see Aiden. “You barely hang out here anymore.” She complained as she engulfed him in a tight hug. Dahlia was right. I couldn’t remember the last time Aiden hung out with us in Katie’s house. It was because he became the alpha and had so many responsibilities. It was also because we’ve been going through much the past few months and everyone was so busy. “I’m sorry about that, it’s not on purpose.” Aiden apologized as we made our way to the living room. “Thank goodness you’re here, Noah.” Sophia rushed to hug me as soon as she saw me. “Katie has been acting like a bitch.”I gently placed my hands over her mouth when I heard those words. “Don’t talk about your big sister in such a vile manner.” Sophia was still too young to be using the bitch word as a part of her vocabulary.“I’m sorry.”
Noah ~•~I felt a mix of emotions and I didn’t know what to do or say. Aiden must have noticed my reaction because he took my hand in his and gave it a gentle squeeze. “Let’s focus on getting the necklace first.” He whispered. “We can deal with the rest later.” I nodded, wiping my eyes with the back of my hands to prevent the tears welled in my eyes from streaming down my face. Aiden handed my mother his phone so she could put her son’s number. When she was done, he took it back from her and dialed the number. After a few rings, a male voice answered. “Hello.” He said. “Hey, I’m Aiden. Your mother is here and she has something to tell you.” “Is she okay? Please don’t hurt her.” The boy pleaded, his tone laced with worry and fear for his mother. Aiden didn’t respond to him, he just signaled my mother to speak to the boy while he still held the phone. “Ethan, you have to come to Hawkins as soon as possible with that necklace.” She instructed him. “The one that belongs to my s
Noah~•~“Aiden, I can’t live like this anymore,” I said, my voice filled with frustration as I lay on his chest. “It’s turning me into a monster and I feel good about killing people,” I confessed, my voice barely above a whisper. Aiden’s hands stroked my hair, his touch gentle. “You’re not a monster, Noah.” He reassured me, his words soothing and comforting. “Are you ready to consider your mother's deal?” I jerked up, my eyes flashing with anger. “Don’t refer to that woman as my mother again,” I warned, my voice low and even. “She’s not my mother, she’s a huntress who killed my father.”“I’m sorry, I won’t refer to her as your mother again.” Aiden apologized and I laid back on his chest. “But have you made a decision yet?” “Hm hm,” I said, nodding my head. “I’m going to let her go for now,” I said, my fingers tracing patterns on his skin. Aiden’s eyes locked onto mine, his gaze intense. “What do you mean by that?” He asked, his voice low and cautious. I smiled, forming a plan in
Noah ~•~We weren’t able to resolve the Jernard issue and we ended up missing the gala. Aiden, Dimitri, Sarah, and I spent the rest of our night drinking wine and watching movies. Aiden and Dimitri decided they were going to deal with the Jernard issue in the morning. That was finding a way to get rid of him and his people. Aiden called Asher and asked him to inform him if Jernard ever returned to the gala, but luckily enough, he never called to deliver any news like that. Exhausted from the events of the day, I decided it was time to go to bed. I exchanged goodbyes with everybody and made my way to my room. I went straight to the bathroom to clean my makeup and change into a more comfortable dress. When I was done, I lay down on my bed. I was about to sleep when I sighted my phone and decided to call Katie first. I wanted to tell her about everything that happened. I called her repeatedly but she didn’t respond. I figured she would be sleeping so I didn’t disturb her further.
Noah ~•~Jernard was on the stage while everyone in the crowd had puzzled looks on their faces.His voice was booming as he continuously declared. “I’m going to be the leader of the pack, whether you all like it or not!” A small group of strange people were cheering him on and it was unsettling. Sarah and I walked through the crowd to meet Asher. “What is going on?” I asked Asher who had a worried look on his face. Aiden, Dimitri, and some other people were trying to stop Jernard. Jernard kept on chanting those words while the people kept on cheering him. After a series of struggles, they finally got Jernard off the stage. I had no idea what had gotten into him. He claimed he wasn’t going to disturb us and had gone somewhere else to start his own pack. So what changed? Why did he want to become the leader of the crescent moon pack all of a sudden? Dimitri handled the whole situation while Aiden stayed back on the stage. He took the microphone and cleared his throat before speak
