Aurora pov He stepped closer to me, and I could feel the rage in his breath. "Aurora, I don't want to repeat myself. What was the meaning of what you wrote on that sheet of paper?" he asked, pointing at the crumpled paper in my hand.I took a deep breath, trying to relieve myself from the frequency of how my heart was pounding off my chest. My fear was also becoming obvious, as my hands were shaking while I tried to open my notepad to write some kind of explanation that would get me out of that situation."Didn't you hear me? I want some reply now," the beta yelled with a slightly raised voice.I was frightened by his voice, which made me drop my notepad on the floor."Can't you answer the question? What is making you scared?" the beta said, putting on a disgusting look.I bent down to pick my notepad up, still thinking of words to write. Before I could write anything, he said something that made me realize what to reply."Aurora, what are you really hiding from us?" the beta asked,
Aurora povI felt relief, and my tense muscles relaxed slightly. With the beta away on a mission, I wouldn't have to deal with his questioning and suspicious looks."The alpha wants you to know that everything is under control, and you're safe here," the guard said, his expression softening.I nodded, trying to appear grateful and reassured. But my mind was already racing with thoughts of how I could use this temporary reprieve to my advantage."Thank you for letting me know," I wrote, trying to look calm.The guard nodded and turned to leave. "If you need anything, just let me know," he said.I nodded and watched as he closed the door behind him. As soon as I was alone, I let out a sigh of relief and began to pace back and forth across the room.I had to think of a way to get out of here before the beta returned. But for now, I had a small window of opportunity to come up with a plan.But first, I would have to resume work. I know I wouldn't be as strong as I was before, due to my pr
Aurora pov Rising up to the challenge, my twins weren't easy to care for, especially while also building a career. I watched them grow from days to months to years.As I navigated the ups and downs of motherhood and entrepreneurship, the alpha remained a constant presence in our lives. He was a devoted man to our twins, and I couldn't help but feel a deep affection for him. But our relationship was complicated, and I wasn't sure if we could ever find our way back to each other.As the years passed, my twins grew into strong, capable little children. They had their father's fierce loyalty and my determination, and I couldn't be prouder of them. But as they approached adulthood, I knew that I had to confront the secrets of our past and the truth about their birth. It wouldn't be easy, but I was ready to face whatever lay ahead...On their three birthday, the alpha threw a big party for them. The alpha's love, which he had shown to my twins, made me trust him with them, and I accepted t
Aurora pov I looked up at him, my eyes locking onto his. For a moment, we just stared at each other, the tension between us increased.Then, without thinking, I reached out and placed my hand on his chest. It was a unsettled touch, but the alpha's eyes flared with heat as he covered my hand with his own.We sat there for a moment, our hands touching, our hearts pounding in unison. It was a moment of raw connection, of unspoken understanding.And then, in a movement that seemed almost inevitable, the alpha leaned in and pressed his lips to mine...I felt his soft lips against mine. I couldn't resist it; it was getting too intense. I had to pull him back. Our breathing was heavy, and we were lost in the moment. He couldn't stop, and I felt like he couldn't resist me. We were in our own world, and he couldn't stop looking at me. He tried to come close again, but I pushed him back by his chest, feeling his heart beating rapidly.I pushed the alpha away, trying to catch my breath. His eye
Aurora pov I felt a shiver run down my spine as I wondered if I should go. But something about the message drew me in, making me feel like I had to know what the alpha wanted..."No, I wouldn't go," I thought to myself. I distracted my mind away from the thought, making some analyses for my fashion business. As it had become one of the biggest growing businesses in the city, both the alpha's influence and my hard work had taken me this far.As I sat at my desk, pouring over designs and financial reports, I felt a sense of pride and accomplishment wash over me. My fashion business had come a long way, and I knew that I owed a lot of it to the alpha's influence and support.But I also knew that I had worked incredibly hard to get to this point. I had put in countless hours, pouring my heart and soul into every aspect of the business. And it had paid off.As I analyzed the latest sales figures and customer feedback, I felt a sense of excitement and anticipation. I knew that there were s
Asher povIt was about getting to four years now, since Aurora ran away, and I hadn't heard anything from her. This past few years was like a battle between my heart and brain. My heart still wondered if she was okay, and my brain just wanted to concentrate and focus on my life in front of me.I stood in front of the bedroom mirror, preparing for my meeting, with my expensive suit matching up to my muscular body, forcing a smile on my face. My brown eyes blurred. I took a deep breath, turning to Sophia, who was still lying on the bed, after coming late from her countless parties she had been having over the years.I walked up to her, tapping her to wake her up. "Good morning, my angel," I said, still making an effort, despite her stubborn behavior on waking up."Oh...I hate you," she said, her eyes still closed, but her voice murmuring in anger. "How many times have I warned you not to wake me up?""I just want to tell you that I am about to leave for work, that's all," I said, feelin
Asher povThe tension was high, as my mother looked at me in a weird look."Mother, I have told you countless times that she isn't ready. What did you expect me to do, force her?" I said."She said she is still young and beautiful, and she doesn't want to spoil her shape for me," I added, rushing my glass of juice in frustration."Just hear yourself; what is the meaning of what you are saying? Has she gone mad? And why would you accept that kind of rubbish?" she asked, hitting the table with anger.I sighed, feeling a headache coming on. This was not the first time my mother had brought up the topic of Sophia getting pregnant, and I knew it wouldn't be the last."Mother, please understand. Sophia is not ready to have children yet. And even if she was, it's not like I can force her to get pregnant," I said, trying to reason with her.My mother's expression turned red with anger. "You're the alpha! You should be able to control your luna! And what's with this nonsense about not wanting
Asher povI looked at Johnson, his words striking a chord within me. Was I settling for Sophia? Was she truly the right luna for me?"Johnson, you're right," I said, feeling a bit of clarity. "I need to take control of this situation. I need to be the alpha."Johnson nodded, a smile spreading across his face. "That's the spirit, bro! Now, go out there and show Sophia who's boss."I laughed, feeling a load of determination. I was going to take control of my life, and I was going to start with Sophia.Just then, my assistant knocked on the door. "Alpha, Sophia is here to see you."I raised an eyebrow, a sense of irony. Speak of the devil."Send her in," I said, standing up and smoothing out my clothes.Johnson stood up, clapping me on the back. "Good luck, bro. You're going to need it."I smiled, feeling gratitude towards my friend. With a deep breath, I prepared myself for the confrontation that was about to ensue...Sophia walked in, showing me her phone screen with anger, and said, "
Asher povIt was raining. I was standing in front of the window, at the window, looking outside, as my heart shuddered to every boom of the rainstorms. I was standing with the twins. I was looking away from outside, at something, to looking at them, and their eyes were distorted in fear. They were afraid of the rain. I breathed as I moved towards them."Hello, children, don't fear. I am here with you," I whispered, stooping down to their level."We want our mummy," responded one of the twins, his voice shaking and pathetic."Don't fear, you will meet your mummy soon, and we will stay together," I said, trying to smile."We don't know you, sir. We want our mummy!" both of them shrieked at the same time."Shut up you two, okay? You're driving me crazy here," I shouted back, banging my head. But shouting didn't appear to be doing any good, for they persisted, but louder. Their din, combined with the anger of the thunderstorm, was tightening the whole atmosphere in the room.Suddenly, and
Aurora povMy guard, who was sitting beside me, seemed to sense my unease. He placed a reassuring hand on my arm. "We'll find them, Aurora," he said, his voice low and steady.I nodded, taking a deep breath. I had to stay focused. For the twins' sake, I had to stay strong.Before long, the plane began its descent into the alpha's city. I felt a flutter in my chest as I gazed out the window at the unfamiliar landscape below.As we touched down on the runway, I felt a sense of determination wash over me. I was one step closer to finding my twins. And I wouldn't rest until they were safely back in my arms.The flight was smooth, and I spent the time going over everything that had happened so far, trying to piece together the puzzle.I could feel a sense of anticipation building up inside me. What would the alpha tell me? Would he have any news about my twins?We were greeted by one of the alpha's guards, who escorted us to the alpha's mansion. As we arrived, the alpha himself came out to
Aurora povAll my efforts to threaten Asher, to see if he was the one who kidnapped my twins, had been in vain. My patience was fading away, and I needed to find a way to get them back. With each passing day without my twins, my frustration grew.As I dwelled in my misery, my phone rang. I was surprised to hear the voice on the other end. "Hello, Aurora. It's been a while," he said, his voice loud and clear."Yes, it has," my guard replied, coughing after speaking. "Aurora, I heard what happened to you. I know it's been hard for you these past few days," the alpha said, his voice low and sympathetic."Thank you," my guard said, reading the words I wrote on my notepad. "I'm sorry I didn't inform you. I had a lot on my mind.""I understand," the alpha replied. "Who would blame you? I was paid a visit by Alpha Asher. He was the one who told me about the kidnapping of your twins. That was the main reason he came here.""Asher was in your city?" my guard asked, sounding surprised. "And he
Asher povI decided to close the paper, not wanting to know what was on it. I stormed out of the house, driving out as if I was like a thief. We went straight to where I hide my twins, and with every turn I made, I looked at my rearview mirror on my car to check if I was being followed.As I drove, my heart was racing with anticipation and fear. I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched, and the thought of being followed sent a chill down my spine. I glanced at my rearview mirror again, but saw nothing out of the ordinary. Still, I couldn't relax, my senses on high alert as I navigated the winding roads. Finally, I arrived at the safe house, a nondescript building nestled in a secluded area. I breathed a sigh of relief as I pulled into the driveway, feeling a sense of security wash over me.I turned off the engine and sat for a moment, collecting my thoughts. I had been hiding my twins here for days now, and it was starting to feel like a permanent solution. But I knew it
Asher povI spent the rest of the day with Sofia, trying to reassure her that everything would be okay. But the guilt was eating away at me, making it harder and harder to keep up the act.As the sun began to set, I knew I had to get out of there before I cracked under the pressure. I made an excuse about needing to check on some pack business, and Sofia nodded understandingly."I'll be fine," she said. "I'm just going to rest for a bit."I nodded and smiled, feeling like a traitor. As I left the guard's quarters, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was walking further and further down a path from which I might never return.I made my way back to my own quarters, my mind racing with thoughts of Sofia, the baby, and Aurora. I knew I had to come up with a plan to deal with Aurora once and for all, but I was running out of time.As I entered my quarters, I was greeted by the sound of my phone buzzing. I picked it up, hoping for a distraction from my thoughts. But my heart sank as I saw t
Asher povThis was all coming down on me like a hammer, and I didn't know how to handle it. I had to be patient until Sofia gave birth, and also avoid Aurora. I would try my best not to meet her.I took a deep breath and tried to clear my head. I had to think clearly and come up with a plan. I couldn't let Aurora get to me, and I couldn't let Sofia's pregnancy complicate things further.I decided to focus on one thing at a time. First, I had to make sure Sofia was safe and healthy until she gave birth. Then, I could deal with Aurora and figure out what to do about the twins.I felt a sense of determination wash over me. I was going to get through this, no matter what it took. I was going to protect Sofia, the twins, and myself, no matter what dangers lay ahead.With newfound resolve, I headed back to my car, ready to face whatever challenges came my way.As I drove away, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched. I glanced in the rearview mirror, but saw nothing out of the
Asher pov I waited for a few moments, my senses on high alert, but there was no further noise. I let out a slow breath and relaxed slightly, thinking that maybe I had just imagined it.But then, I heard it again. This time, it was louder and closer. It sounded like footsteps, crunching through the underbrush outside the cabin.I motioned to my pack members to get into position, and we all moved quietly to the windows and doors, ready to defend ourselves if necessary.The footsteps got closer and closer, and then, suddenly, a figure appeared at the window. It was a woman, and she looked frantic."Alpha Asher," she whispered urgently. "I need to talk to you."I recognized the woman as one of Aurora's office personnel, and my instincts told me to be cautious. But there was something in her eyes that made me trust her, at least for the moment.I nodded, and motioned for her to come inside. She slipped in quietly, and I could see that she was shaking with fear."What is it?" I asked her,
Asher povMy mother nodded, tears streaming down her face. "I understand, Asher. I'm so sorry for what I did. I promise to never interfere in your life again."I looked at her, searching for any sign of deception. But all I saw was genuine remorse."I want you to leave the pack, Mother," I said, my voice firm. "I want you to go somewhere and reflect on your actions. Maybe then you'll understand why what you did was so wrong."My mother nodded again, this time with a hint of sadness. "I'll go, Asher. I'll leave the pack and give you the space you need."I watched as she turned and walked away, feeling a mix of emotions. I was relieved that the truth was finally out, but I was also sad that my mother had sunk so low.As I stood there, holding my twins close, I knew that I had to move forward. I had to focus on rebuilding my relationship with my children and making sure they were safe and know me.I looked down at my twins, who were looking up at me with big, curious eyes. "Let's go home
Asher povMy mother's expression changed, and she looked at me with a mixture of sadness and desperation. "I was trying to protect you, Asher. I was trying to protect our family's reputation.""By kidnapping innocent children?" I asked, my voice rising in anger.My mother took a step forward, her hands clasped together. "I know it was wrong, but I didn't know what else to do. Sofia is getting suspicious, and I knew it was only a matter of time before she found out about your children with Aurora."I shook my head, feeling a wave of disgust wash over me. "You should have trusted me to handle it, Mother. You should have trusted me to protect my own family."My mother's eyes filled with tears, and she fell to her knees. "I'm sorry, Asher. I'm so sorry. I was blinded by my own fears and doubts."I stood there, looking at my mother, feeling a mix of emotions: anger, disappointment, and sadness. I didn't know what to do, or how to process what had just happened.As I stood there, trying to
