— Leia Steele —

The clock couldn’t go any slower… or faster, I wasn’t really sure which way I wanted it to go.

Did I want to meet Zane already or did I want to prolong my confession to him? It was all so confusing, and one that was obviously taking a toll on me as Skye pokes me at the side for the tenth time since we’ve been in the same room together.

“You’re somewhere on another planet again, L.” He commented, his light blue eyes staring straight at me like he’s trying to figure me out, trying to figure out why I’ve been so lost in my own thoughts.

Oh, you know, just thinking about how I’m going to tell my mate that I’m pregnant with somebody else’s child, as well as the fact that I killed many innocent people because of my thirst for blood then, including my own mother.

Did I mention I may or may not have another attack again and your entire Pack might die because of that darkness inside of me?

Yeah, great. Totally normal, right? You’ll still accept me as your mate?

Lovette

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 59: Unforgettable Kiss

    — Leia Steele — Zane was hesitant at first, for like a millisecond, but then he raised his hand to cup my face and his lips went deeper, his kiss ached for more. More of me. It was like nothing I have ever experienced before. This wasn’t like how I kissed Viktor. This was better in ways I can’t even fully describe. The warmth of his fingertips almost melted me to the ground. My heart was beating faster than it has ever done. His lips were warm and velvety soft that my entire face to my body was heating up. This was the feeling of electricity coursing through my veins. This was like being brought back to life after living like the dead. I have never felt so alive. He was taking my breath away, just as I was taking his. It felt like a dream, like a fantasy, like something that couldn’t possibly be happening, but it was. It really was. He was kissing me. My mate, my true mate. The one the Moon Goddess had made to be my other half. In a world with billions of people, this

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 60: Too Late

    — Zane Frost — She’s kissing me. Holy sweet mother of Goddess, Leia Steele, my mate, is kissing me?! I’m processing all of it whilst at the same time taking it all in and wishing time would suddenly freeze or at the very best, slow down, so I could savor it all. Savor the way she feels against my lips — soft and warm, the way she tastes — sweet with a hint of the røkelaks (smoked salmon) she had for dinner earlier, the way this whole thing is making me feel — like I’ve just died and gone to heaven. When I invited her to this spot I’ve often gone to when I needed some time alone or just to think, I was not expecting it would end up like this, but I am in no way complaining at all. It feels like a dream, like a very hyper realistic one. I can’t believe that just a couple of hours ago I thought I would have to let her go, that I would lose my mate for both our sake. Now I was kissing her like I’ve never kissed anyone before and my heart is beating like a drum in my chest,

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 61: Spilling Blood

    (TW: VIOLENCE) — Leia Steele — I can’t see anything. I know my eyes are open, but no matter how many times I blink, I only see the color of the darkest black in front of me. All of a sudden, I heard a rustling sound come from my left and I quickly turned my head to it. I must have moved too fast as I felt my blood rushed to the top of my head way faster than it should and I got dizzy out of nowhere. I also felt a throbbing ache at the back of my skull. “Who— who’s there? Hello?” I asked cautiously whilst gently feeling my head for any blood or bumps. Luckily, there was only a slightly small bump, but no signs of blood. When nobody answered and I was sure I was still alone, I let out a deep sigh of relief, but then remembered that I still had no idea where I was and how the hell I even got here in the first place. For a few seconds, I can’t exactly remember what happened. I’m still a little dizzy and somewhat out of it, but then my mind starts to get clearer and the real

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 62: Left Behind

    — Leia Steele — I woke up with a throbbing headache and every part of my body aching in ways I had no idea was even possible. I can’t open my eyes. When I try, it feels like acid is being poured into it. Every part of me feels like shit, times a million. Am I dead? Am I in some sort of purgatory? Is there such a thing for our kind? If there was Heaven and Hell, I wasn’t at all sure where I would even end up in. Images of what happened last night; the bloodshed, the carnage, it was all flashing in my mind one by one and making my headache even worse. I crouched into the fetal position, burying my head in between my legs and wrapping my arms around my body as much as I could. What have I done? Fuck, I did it again. I let the Dark Shadow control me and I caused deaths. A part of me wants to believe that I did it for the greater good, but the other half feels like I am just saying that to justify what I have done. Whether or not what I did was for good, it doesn’t chan

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 63: Final Choice

    — Zane Frost — I’ve been staring at this piece of paper for hours contemplating if it was real or not, but mostly hoping that it wasn’t. It couldn’t be true, could it? And what is up with this Pack and their obsession with leaving notes? I had no idea how much impact there would be over a few words on one fragile little thing. “You know staring at it isn’t going to make it any less real?” I turned around and saw Skye standing by the doorway, the expression on his face both solemn and anxious at the same time. He knows what’s happened, but none of us really have an idea on what to do next. “If I could tear this into pieces in order for it not to be true, I’d have done it the second I saw it, but alas, that’s not how things work, so I’ll just stare at it like an idiot for now.” I replied to him and he gave me a sympathetic look before walking towards the chair across from me. “How’s Leia? Has she said anything to you?” He shrugged his shoulders accompanied with a s

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 64: His Prisoner

    — Viktor Morgenstar — I don’t know when the last time it was since I’ve felt her, but I do know that it’s been too fucking long. Sometimes it’s like I’m withering inside, like my strength is dwindling because I start to forget what it was like when I’m next to her. Other times I have this rage inside of me because I long to feel her again and that rage doesn’t stop, it just keeps on growing. There is pretty much no in between and I can tell most of the Pack members are starting to notice that I’ve been different; less alert, less heedful. “Viktor! Viktor!” Amethyst’s words sound like scratching nails on a board, and I am abruptly brought back to the present. I remembered I was in the library, gathering information about Packs in different hemispheres, but then I spaced out. Amethyst is now standing in front of me, hands on her hips, and a look that only says she once again didn’t get what she wanted so she’s come to complain to me about it. I pretend not to have hear

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 65: Not Alone

    — Leia Steele — I’m banging on the door like a crazed lunatic, shouting out for Zane wondering if he could even hear me because aside from the sounds of drilling noises, I can’t hear anything else. “Zane!” I shouted for him for what seemed like the hundredth time, but to no avail. “Zane, please! Why are you doing this?!” I asked, but deep down inside I already know the answer. After I told him that there was no way I was letting him stop me or anyone for that matter from going to Viktor in order to save Keira, it was like there was a switch that flipped within him and he boarded me in the room out of nowhere. First he locked the door from the outside, and when I realized what he had done, I knew the window would be my only choice, yet I was too slow compared to him. Before I could, he put some sort of lock on the rails and I couldn’t pry it open and I tried. I really tried for what felt like hours but it didn’t budge at all. “I’m not letting you go, Leia! I’m not letti

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 66: Almost Real

    — Zane Frost — Everything is settled. Nobody has slept a wink since we started talking about our plan and getting ready for it. It’s not that we don’t have time to get a little bit of shut eye, it’s just that we can’t even if we wanted to. There is too much at stake with what is going on right now and not enough certainty with what we are about to do. “I want to go.” River’s office door slammed open as Skye barged in. “I don’t care what you want. You’re not going, and that’s final.” River answered right after as he continued fixing his things. Aspen and I gave each other a quiet look. I tilted my head, signaling him to talk Skye out of it, but Aspen merely let his tongue out at me, claiming I was on my own. Thanks for nothing, idiot. “You know I can fight as good as you guys, maybe even better! You need me!” Skye continued to point out reasons why he should join, but his brother was clearly not having any of it. “Do you really think I would let my younger broth

    — Zane Frost — I hadn’t heard that voice for a while now and it did sound like it could have gotten a bit deeper than before, but I could still distinguish it. Sure enough, when the door swung open, he was all smiles standing in the hallway. Boy, I was not expecting him to have gotten even bigger than he was already before and did he grow a little stubble, too? “I’m back! Surprise!” Skye looked at us beaming excitedly. “Oh, Zane’s here, too! Great! I thought I was going to arrive tomorrow morning, but the journey ended up being a little faster than I thought so— wait a second…” He paused and that’s when I know he finally realized that it wasn’t just me that was also there. “Who… is she?” He blinked at her intrigued. “Well, this is definitely one homecoming I didn’t see coming…” I said with a soft chuckle to lighten up the mood but that didn’t really help. River let out a sigh before confessing to his brother. “This is Eva… my mate.” “Holy. Shit.” Skye reacted in

  • Running With His Heir   Epilogue Part One

    — Zane Frost — Preparations had been going on for a couple of weeks now. Everybody was excited for Skye’s sudden announcement that he was coming back earlier than usual. Even if I hounded him for more information, that boy was like a vault and he didn’t open up, not even to Leia who was itching to know what had made him suddenly want to come back. “What do you think he meant by ‘big news’?” Leia asked as we were in the kitchen, gathering ingredients to make all the dishes we knew everybody, especially Skye, would love. Usually we would leave the Pack chefs in charge of this, but since Leia was having this phase where she wanted to cook anything and everything, I wanted to be there and help her out. “I don’t know. Anything is possible with that guy.” I honestly answered with a shoulder shrug as I passed her the sifted flour she asked for. We were making various baked goods, but first one on the list was skolebrød, which was a bun filled with a gooey and delicious vanilla c

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 83: One True Mate

    — Viktor Morgenstar — Before I jumped into that water, I thought it was the only way to preserve what little I had left in my life. In my mind, it was better to die than to live another day without Leia and our baby. I believed I was as good as dead. Until I got washed away onto land and I took another breath. It was hard to explain exactly what that felt like, but what was worse was having to watch the only love you have ever known get pulled away by somebody else and the baby you desperately wanted cared for men you had no idea of. My Dark Shadow screamed and screamed for me to get them back and though every part of me wanted the same as well, I knew that I no longer deserved them. For the first time in my life, I realized that what I wanted isn’t something that I am always supposed to have. After I knew that Leia and the baby were safe, I knew what I had to do. I had to leave and somehow, in some way, I had to become better. Not just for the family that I lost,

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 82: Two Letters

    — Leia Steele — I have heard and read about countless experiences, many good, many bad, about the newborn stage, but nothing, absolutely nothing can compare to when you are experiencing it yourself. Luckily for me, the phrase ‘it takes a village’ is definitely in effect with the White Howlers. There hasn’t been a minute that I’ve been completely alone with Lux and I couldn’t ask for anything else. Whether it’s Keira offering to help me breastfeed since I was obviously new in all of this and my body was still somewhat recovering thus producing less than ideal, or Skye and the other boys more than happily entertaining him during tummy time with all sorts of antics, or even the usually stoic Alpha Titus excitedly playing with Lux and Zora, his and Keira’s baby girl, everybody has been an absolute gem every single day. But of course, only one person has truly never left my side, and that is— “Zane Frost!” I heard a very passionate squeal on the other side of the door where

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 81: Our Baby

    — Leia Steele — I woke up feeling somewhat… amazing, which is a completely baffling thing because as far as I can recall, I just fell off a cliff and dove into water while I was bleeding to death. How the hell does it feel like my body is completely healed? Or the fact that I even woke up because I could have sworn I thought I wasn’t going to make it out of there alive? Or wait… I sat up from the bed and frantically began to look around and take in my surroundings, trying to figure out where I was. Maybe I am dead?! “I can see from the very astounded expression on your face right now that you think you’ve somehow woken up in another space or timeline.” I turned to where the sound came from and saw a beaming familiar face. “Skye!” I couldn’t help but squeal his name out of pure happiness to see him, and he looks good at that. “Hey, tough one. Glad to see you’re doing good. No pain, right?” He asked as he walked over to sit on the chair next to me. I noticed tha

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 80: Before/After

    (Two Years Later) — Zane Frost — I am seated at the edge of the lake. The very spot I always find myself in whenever I go here. I don’t know why, but my body just somewhat gravitates to this place every single time without fail. Even now when seeing the sight of water still triggers a memory in me, I still stay here. My eyes closed as I laid down on the grass. Winter has gone, exchanged for Spring, and all the snow has melted, replaced with flowers of different colors that had bloomed a new life. A new life, it repeated in my head. That is what Spring is; the beginning of something new. Perhaps everyone, every single person in this world has had a moment that has split their life into two. When you look back at your days, there is something that changed you, some specific time that you know was cataclysmic to your entire existence. A moment that creates what happened before and what happened after. It shades your memories in a different perspective just as it shi

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 79: Free Fall

    — Leia Steele — “AAAAAAHHHHHH!” I screamed and screamed until it felt like my lungs were going to give out at any second. It was hard to focus on anything aside from the crippling pain that was coming from my belly but transmitting all throughout my entire body. Viktor had quickly pulled me out of the room where the coronation was happening and when I thought he was rushing me to the Pack’s infirmary, he turned a different way that I had no idea where it was leading to. “AAAAAAHHHHHH!” More screams come out of me and I swear it feels like somebody is ripping my belly open. The sound of commotion seems like it’s following us. Left and right I hear people screeching as well as things being destroyed to the ground as the earth itself shook. “Wh— what’s… h— happening…” I managed to get the words out of me as I squirmed in pain as Viktor carried me in his arms tightly. In my mind, I wished somebody else was holding onto me, but my body was a betrayer, lavishing in the

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 78: Awakened Vengeance

    — Zane Frost — I feel like absolute shit. Maybe that in itself is even an understatement because from my head to my toes, it’s like I’m being pushed onto the ground by twenty six-wheelers trucks. That is excluding the fact that my head feels like I’ve been pushed out of a plane and I’m currently twirling around and around fifty thousand feet up in the air. Holy shit. What the fuck is going on? “Zane? Zane! You’re awake?! Guys, he’s awake!” I heard a familiar voice shout out and I flinched in pain almost immediately. There was a loud echo in my ears and I thought my head was going to burst. “Shit, sorry,” the voice mumbled an apology. “Wr du hl m ei…” I tried to speak, but I doubt the letters that came out of my mouth could even form a single understandable word. My suspicions were proven correct when the person next to me burst out into a fit of laughter. If I had the energy to smack them, I would have done it, but alas, aside from being able to move my lips

  • Running With His Heir   Chapter 77: Monsters Bleed

    — Zane Frost — Chaos. Madness. Death. It was left and right. It was almost impossible to escape, but I kept pushing. I told myself that I had to. I knew I had to for her, for Leia, for Keira, for everybody in my Pack and Alpha Titus’. This was all our fight and we had to end this today. No matter what. As soon as anyone tried to come after me, I fought to kill. I don’t think about anything else, but to get the upper hand. The very first time you hesitate, there’s no coming back from that. I see the bloodthirst in their eyes and in the way they growl. These wolves are different. Whilst the White Howlers and Blazing Wolves were trained to mostly defend themselves from the enemies, these ones were trained to do no defending, only killing, like they were all raised to be killing machines. It was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before, but I had to keep up with them if I had to get to Leia. When I saw her get dragged into that house out of nowhere, it was like a switch
