Aurora locked the door to the training house and dusted her hands. Her intention was to go back to the main house and rest her head since it was already night time, but she looked up and saw Maverick sitting on the front porch.

The guest who had come to the manor uninvited had left after she forcefully kicked them out, they overstayed their welcome.

She walked up to him before sitting beside him and stared up at the sky.

“What did you do about her?” He asked.

“I sent her back to the castle after striking a deal with her. She's better off there than here. If Mani stayed out later, The Mistress might suspect something.” she answered.

“What if she doesn't keep her part of the deal?”

“She has no option than to do what I asked of her, I already have her life in the palm of my hand.” She scoffed. “It is not like she is loyal to her boss anyways.” He didn't reply, he just nodded and turned back to stare ahead.

“Are you not going to ask me about what deal we made?” She asked and he shook her

    “We had sex again and I don't know how it happened,” Aurora said, clutching the blanket around her trembling frame, it was her only thing keeping her from being naked as she felt. The words tasted bitter, like a heavy lid on her tongue, but she forced them out.Lightning flashed outside, illuminating her in the dim room. Her hair clung to her damp face, a wild mess, and her feet, bare against the cold floor, felt numb.“Wait... what?!” Easton’s voice cut through the silence, his wide eyes flicking to the thin nightgown peeking from beneath the blanket. His expression darkened.“That’s—”“Phoebe’s,” Aurora finished flatly. Her lips twisted into a bitter smile. “Of course it is.”Easton clenched his fists. “That bastard—”“Don’t.” Aurora cut him off, shaking her head. Her gaze dropped to the floor as she tried to blink back her tears. “I don’t need you defending me. Not from him. Not now.”Her voice cracked, but she swallowed the lump in her throat and kept speaking. “He threw it at me.

    Aurora flinched at the shrill voice behind her.“Move out of my way, bitch!” Tessie barked, her black eyes blazing with disdain. Her sneer curled into something colder as she added, “And keep your cursed bad luck out of my path.”Aurora turned slowly, her calm gaze meeting Tessie’s glare. Before she could respond, another voice chimed in.“Mom’s going to kill you for letting her stand so close, Tess,” Jennie sneered. “The pack’s still celebrating that a half-witch like her didn't end up being the Luna, thanks to Alpha's quick choice of our perfect sister.”“Shut it, Jennie!” Tessie snapped and turned back to Aurora. “Well? Are you deaf now? Get out of the way!”The tension around them thickened as curious eyes from the field began to drift their way. Aurora felt their glares, their whispers, the same hostility she’d endured her entire life.It was nothing new.Her voice was unnervingly calm as she replied. “There’s no need to yell. Being a werewolf doesn’t mean you have to act like an

    Remind me why we are still not out of this place," Easton said."Luna might be needed anytime. I have to be present," Aurora stated nonchalantly. Easton glared at her and immediately knew she wasn’t as okay as she pretended to be. Even after the spectacle on the field, she had taken a moment to herself but still insisted they return to the halls because of her duties.Duties for a position Maverick had just given to Phoebe in front of nearly everyone in the pack."That asshole," Easton muttered as they stood at the far end of the hall. There was no one around, and the dim light shrouded them in shadows. Hidden from plain view, they leaned against each other."He’s been like this ever since the mate awakening ceremony," Easton said, glaring at Maverick, who stood on stage giving a speech. A smile rested on Maverick’s lips as if he hadn’t just shattered someone’s world with his words and actions. "The petty bastard even used you not showing up as an excuse to reject you."Aurora’s mind d

    Aurora staggered for a bit before she managed to stand on her feet perfectly. Everyone present was shocked that she could even stand.“I’ve endured too much in this pack to stay another second. Hypocritical leaders, selfish members, and you—my mate—who failed me most. Keep your lies, your cruelty, and your title. I’m done.” Her eyes are cold and unfeeling. “All of you can dive headfirst into hell. I’m leaving this shithole of yours, and you can keep it for the rest of your life!” she spat angrily, despite the immense pain she felt. Turning on her heel, she began to walk away. Easton immediately followed her.Maverick also left the scene, his expression pained as he watched Aurora walk away. He seemed to have difficulty breathing; his eyes were bloodshot, and his hands were trembling. But no one noticed him leave.The pack councils and members attempted to follow her, but Alec shook his head at them, and they reluctantly stood down, watching as Aurora left the field—out of Moonlight Pac

    How many people did it take for an unwarranted headache to sizzle up in one’s head and prick at one’s nerves?That had been the question the women Aurora was out in the woods with had asked each other just moments before. They’d all had different answers, and the numbers varied widely, but one thing united them despite their differences:For Aurora, there was no number. No matter how many people it took, no matter how irritating or intimidating they were, no one could shake the rock that was Aurora. She had agreed with a smile on her lips.How wrong they had been.Aurora had never thought she would see him again. They might cross paths someday, but it wasn’t supposed to be now. And even if they did meet, she wasn’t supposed to feel anything.But as she looked at his face, she froze. A lump rose in her throat, a barricade of conflicting emotions she hadn’t felt in the last five years crashing over her—emotions she had thought locked away. They bubbled to the surface as his hypnotizing b

    Maverick gave a subtle mental nod when Layla pointed out that Aurora had been using a scent-masking spell since entering the room. It finally made sense. That was why he couldn’t smell her when she walked in or even now. But when Aurora muttered something under her breath, her scent broke through the spell, overwhelming his senses.The scent hit him all at once—too much, too fast. She smelled like the ocean breeze, the kind that brushed against your skin while standing by the sea with a seashell in hand. It was a scent he had always liked.For a werewolf like him, who spent most of his time in the woods, forests, and small towns, her scent was a welcome change. It calmed him. But as it teased his heightened senses, it awakened something deeper. His wolf stirred, thrilled by the possibility of finding another mate. Yet that joy dimmed almost instantly, replaced by anguish.His wolf recognized her. This was the same soul that had once hurt them, the same one they had broken the bond with

    Layla had led them from their room that morning. Maverick and Alec had just finished dressing when the bubbly woman had knocked on their door. She had said that she couldn’t let them stay cooped up inside their room while she could show them the beauty of their pack.“Is it really necessary that you come and get us so early in the morning?” Alec had grumbled, and Layla bopped her head.“Of course. It is absolutely necessary. You people have already woken up and gotten dressed, and all you would do is stare at your phones and laptops in your room before we had to talk again at the meeting.” She replied with a wide smile.“And does it have to be only us? There are others too.” Alec said, and Layla rolled her eyes at him.“You are the ones I find most likable among them all, except for that beautiful brunette and her sidekick, of course, but a woman must get her beauty sleep. I heard she’s the pack's doctor. She must have a lot on her hands already, poor thing must study till late at nigh

    “Fucking Zach delayed the documentation of the contract. Apparently, there was some glitch in the system, so Alpha Maverick and his representative had to stay a few more days. Tell your freaking Beta to act like one, Easton!” Layla snapped, her voice dripping with irritation. Aurora rolled her eyes at the drama queen, while Easton ignored her completely, engrossed in the video game on his phone.A lot had changed over the years, but not Easton’s love for games. He could sit with that phone from morning till night without growing bored. Hilton didn’t discourage him, either—in fact, he often joined in. Aurora often wondered how they managed to get anything done as the Alpha and Delta of the rogue pack.“Don’t you like their presence here?” Hilton asked casually, not even glancing up from where he sat, while Aurora sank comfortably into the beanbag.“I definitely don’t,” Easton muttered, earning a glare from Layla.“Of course you don’t, but I do. Why wouldn’t I like that hunk parading aro

    “Why must I make it potion when it is much easier to carry it around like little vitamin pills. No one would suspect that it is the powerful thing that could bring back people to their sense. That kind of thinking is better for my safety and convenience.” Aurora said, as she walked beside Easton.He had found her at the little den that was at the southern part of the Manor, she just failed to produce another solution.“It makes sense when you put it like that.” Easton nodded.“How’s Hilton?” Aurora asked. “I have never got the chance to meet him since I got out.”“Did you get along with him very well?”“He is a good man. I like how calm he is, he is a very good balance to the chaotic mess that I am.” Aurora wringed her fingers. “Even though, he had no idea that we used to chat.”Aurora narrowed her eyes when they got to the garden and saw Stephanie crouching down in front of a plan.“What the hell do you think that you are doing?” She asked harshly, and Stephanie floor ched before she

    "Alpha," Sadie greeted as soon as he saw Maverick and the latter nodded his head at her. Easton was still observing Aurora while Alec was too busy glaring at Saxton who gave him the death glare back."I think werewolves have the stupid knack of coming to someone's home without invitation," Aurora said, and Sadie turned to look at her, but as soon as their eyes met she gasped in utmost surprise."We are sorry for barging in, I thought that Alec or Easton had informed Alpha about it but it turned out that they didn't," Stephanie spoke up and Aurora turned to look at her.Aurora glanced at her. "You are that witch from the other day who didn't know the difference between possession and gaining control.""What do you plan to do to her?" Crystabelle asked before Stephanie could speak up and they turned to look at her, she was grabbing the witch's jaw in her hand as she stared straight into her eyes."Nothing that is any of your business, you have an hour to talk to your Alpha and get out o

    Aurora scoffed at Tessie and regarded her with disdain. “Reasons that I definitely won’t tell any of you, most especially you.”Maverick also found some sense in her words, it was precisely because Saxton didn’t try to kill Aurora that he had killed him. He just contented himself with watching the man like a hawk.“Now we have done the ritual today too.” Aurora said. “It is time to go back to the hell you came from. Stop absorbing the good nature energy of my Manor that is beneficial to your wolf.”“What stupid Manor?” Tessie humped. “This is barely a place where a weirdo decided to build a lot of five room duplexes all around a large piece of land. Planting plants on the place that was supposed to be other ways around the building.”Before anyone could blink, Aurora was in front of Tessie and her hands were on her throat almost suffocating her to madness as Tessie felt tingles all over her brain and water in her eye as her chest tightened and she struggled to breath.“Tell you someth

    Maverick pulled Aurora closer to himself and made her rest her head on his chest as he ran his hand through her hair.“We met some rogues when we were on the way to the castle, they were all a product of the ministrations that the witches subjected them to. It was confirmed that they have vampires under their control too.”“I don’t know much about this thing but I am quite sure that those people were not originally rogues,” Aurora said, and he turned to look at her with furrowed brows.“You mean that they were normal werewolves that were kidnapped?”“Yeah, I am sure of that. Rogues were formed only when werewolves lose the connection they have with their pack and they turn rabid only after they lose the control they have over their mind.It would be easier to manipulate the werewolves, after all, losing the link they have with their pack unwillingly is the same thing as losing every single member of their family all at once. They fall into a state of depression immediately and they ar

    “What did my wolf have to do with the fetus? Last I remembered, I don’t know magic,” Maverick raised a brow at Aurora and she rolled her eyes.“I didn’t say that you had to do any magic, the only thing needed is the presence of a powerful wolf in the vicinity of the fetus, that is enough for it to live on,” she explained.“But it is a witch,”“Or a wizard, but everything in the supernatural world has one or two advantages to one another, that’s the true order of this world. It is just a shame that most people here are too cocky and won’t seek help from others outside their species,” she dusted the table at one corner of the room they just entered and placed the jar on it. “It is just that I don’t care about that bullshit. I also need you in this place for other things too, your presence can never be too useful.”The aura surrounding the room changed slightly and both of them stood at attention, both their eyes and stance alert.“See? Some people couldn’t even wait for me to settle do

    The Mistress turned and entered the castle, Mani immediately appeared behind her.“What are you going to do now? Aurora tricked you to spill our plans,” Mani said, but The Mistress only wringed her hand.“You saw?”“I was on the rooftop.”“Mn.”“Are you going to do anything about it? I am sure that she is not our partner, she is a hundred percent faking it.” Mani persisted, as she followed The Mistress to her office.“We still have an agreement, Aurora isn’t working with the Moonlight Pack at the moment, she must be up to something. Send some men to keep an eye on her.”“Already did, but I just got news that she went to Left Green Woods, you know that just any witch can’t enter the place.”The Mistress raised her head to look at Mani.“Then you should do it then.”“What?” Mani asked with wide eyes.“You can’t?” She asked which made the other woman bow.“Of course, I would keep my eyes on her.”“Better.” The Mistress said. “Aurora is mild at the moment, my main subject of curiosity is

    “You came,” Maverick said emotionlessly, and Aurora smiled. “How long were you active in her head?”“Won’t you like to know that?” She replied. “Don’t blame me though, it is not my fault that she thought that she is capable enough to handle it alone.”“When are you leaving?” He asked and she laughed.“Who told you that I am leaving anytime?” she replied.“What the hell is going on, Maverick?” Alec asked in confusion, even Floyd who was usually well informed was lost.“I would explain to you later, but the simple explanation is that she has been possessed,” Stephanie said, and Aurora stared at her with narrowed eyes before she scoffed.“And who the fuck are you?” she asked in an intense amount of hostility that made Stephanie flinched, not used to Aurora talking to her this way.“Possessed?” Floyd asked.“How can you say that I possessed the body when we have both been sharing it since birth? Too under-informed and over confident to the booth.” Aurora said, eyes flickered to Stephenie

    “What? How?” Layla asked in disbelief and Aurora smirked, she stretched her shoulders and exhaled loudly.“Coming out felt good, the weak bitch had been taking control for a long time,” she said to herself.“What?”“You must be wondering who I am, scratch that, you might even know who I am but I would overlook that and give you some explanations since you are her good friend.” She said, and shot Layla a smile– one that didn't quite reach her eyes.“In ordinary theory, the concept is simple.” She started her explanation. “It is similar to a person being possessed, they have the same face, they can answer to the same but they have a different attitude to the former owner of the body.In Aurora's case, her father was the a powerful wizard who had a lot things at his disposal and had offended a lot of people by not being greedy like them and giving them the power they need to overpower and trample of other people, he was too powerful to be cursed, so the repercussions were passed on his o
