CHAPTER THIRTY NINEAurora's POV. I didn't know how much I had spent on the floor or wherever I was until a soft gust of wind hit my body and a hand tapped my shoulder.I struggled to open my eyes, but the pain I felt around my eyes made me close them and I instead tried to use my hands to lift my weight up the floor. I placed my fingers firmly on the floor in order to support me, still, the pain shot through my hands and I threw myself back on to the floor. My body hurt. It was as if I was severely beaten with heavy logs of wood. My nasal tract was hurting as a result of the wine that was thrown on my face , some which ran down my nostrils.'Mia'. I called out , trying to ask for help. Why didn't she help me, when Carter and his party organizers, subjected me to this kind of humiliation and torture? Why didn't she come forted and fight for us?.'Why didn't she help me? Why didn't she help us fight?' My eyes burnt with tears while I tried to talk to her, but she was not saying a
FORTY ONE Carter's POV. "You two had better shut up and leave my presence this minute.” I yelled as I got myself up from Chloe. I know that was not Aurora's voice. It was her wolf. They must have been pushed to the edge which is exactly what I wanted. I wanted them to leave me alone. Why couldn't they understand? Was this a must do?I had expected them to react at the sound of my voice or maybe leave, but they did not. Aurora stood next to the sofa with her hands balled in a fist. I could see her teeth gritting together. I needed to make this stop. I couldn't let this take another turn. My father could probably wake up at the noise.And from the look of things, Aurora and her wolf were not ready to back down.'You have to leave now. My father might get the noise and come over and trust me, this wouldn't be good if he does'I mind linked Chloe who in turn widened her eyes at me. 'Are you just going to throw me out like that?' She glared at me with her lips pressed together.
CHAPTER FORTY TWO Aurora's POV. It's been two weeks since the incident between Carter and I. He had left that night and came back all bruised up. I don't know where he usually went at night and came back the next morning with cuts all over his body.I tried helping out, but he kept pushing me away. I was hurt by what had happened. No matter how much he hated me, that was not enough reason for him to treat me like my life didn't matter at all.However, I decided to let all that go down the drain. I didn't want to dwell on that anymore. I just wanted him to see me differently and probably have a change of mind. But still, there was no Improvement. He was still headstrong and resented me and as always. I started giving him space. I didn't mingle with anything that had to do with him anymore. He did his own thing and I did mine. I guess it was better that way. I had spent some of the past days with my mother and more of them and the pack's hospital. I just wanted to keep my mind off
CHAPTER FORTY TWOAurora's POV I didn't own up immediately, because I wanted to make sure it was indeed my name I heard.Why did it have to be my name and why? I was confused and didn't know what to do."Isn't Aurora present in this class?" The principal asked again and I felt my heart racing. What did I do again?"Here I am, sir" My hands were now fidgeting together and I wondered what could be the problem. I watched as he quickly turned his attention to the places I was sitting. "It's you again? Why do you like getting into trouble?".The man from last time who has a pot belly announced and my jaw dropped. Why do you like getting into trouble? What kind of trouble did I get myself into this time? What crime fidI commit that would warrant the authorities to come all the way down here to find me.Goodness!"Oh, so she has been in some trouble before and this was her second.” The principal said in realization and the pot belly man nodded his head."I need you to present yourself t
CHAPTER FORTY THREEAurora's POV.A whole month had gone by. Well, guess what, I was still here and not planning on leaving any time soon. Carter and Chloe have been all around the place, even in school. However, I didn't give a fuck about whatever thing they were doing.Carter had remained cold hearted towards me. He doesn't even talk to me. He always ignored me each time I tried, but I didn't care. All the talking to him was because of his father, if not I wouldn't have been wasting my time on him.Alpha Logan, had been organizing some gatherings in the past weeks and he had always made sure that Carter and I should always be together when coming to the occasions. Knowing who Carter was, he is always pissed off. Did I care? No, I didn't. He was torturing himself and not me.At times, I would forcefully take his hands into mine to play the couple goal thing.Well, I only did that whenever the Alpha was around. I wouldn't be so stupid to do it when it's just the two of us. That
CHAPTER FORTY FOUR Carter's POV. "You two have the first dance." I vividly spun my neck around to look at my father with surprise on my face. Was he being serious right now?Not after spending most of my days with this girl for the past months and now this.How far was he willing to go to see that me and this girl would be tied forever. How could he do this to me?"Father, you know I can't dance. In Fact , I won't be able to do this." I told him, but the man seemed to have his attention fixed on something else and not even looking at me. Who treats their son the way he treats me?He doesn't even take into account my own opinion when it comes to this girl. What wrong did I do?He has been the reason why I have been unable to meet Chloe for the past weeks. We only met in school. He made a stick around this girl like glue."You two have the first dance and the others would come after you. Don't make me repeat myself." I gulped at the coldness and the seriousness in his eyes.I had n
Chapter 46Aurora's POV "Where are you going, son?"Alpha Logan asked as Carter stood up from his seat, his eyes focused on the crowd. Was he perhaps looking for that slutty bitch of his? He didn't reply and continued on his way till he was out of sight. "He behaves like that sometimes.” Alpha Logan casted me a sorry look. I just smiled and nodded. If only he knew his son was always like that all the time and not some times. He was an idiot. In his mind, he thought he could throw me off to the floor when we were dancing. He is so damn lucky that he didn't try it else, he would have fallen down with me."Don't you think you should go check on him.”I averted my gaze from the crowd and looked at Alpha Logan who in turn was looking at the wrist watch on his wrist. "It's been more than thirty minutes since he left.”He looked at me worriedly. Why was he looking at me like that? I was not the bodyguard of his son stupid son.He must be somewhere with Chloe and having fun. "Ofcourse.
Chapter 47.Aurora's POV. I woke up the next morning with a heavy thirst for water. My throat felt so dry as though I hadn't taken in water for a long time after all the wine I had consumed yesterday. I was thirsty as hell. Sitting upright on the rug, I robbed the sleep off my eyes and peered around the room not looking at the bed since my back was turned towards it. I didn't have that energy to turn around. When my eyes met the window, the bright light entering the room from the slightly ajar window hit my eyes and I quickly blinked my eyes.It wasn't as early as I thought. I quickly picked up my phone from the sofa next to me. I know I left it there last night before sleeping on the floor. My left hand got hold of the phone and the screen lit up immediately. I checked at the time and it was 9:30 AM in the morning. I never slept that much. It must be as a result of the party the previous night. I quickly pulled the brown covers off my body and stood up from the floor. I folde
THE END.NARRATOR'S POV.SEVEN YEARS LATER.“Kol, Hardin, I don't think this is a great idea, let's just go back home.” Melissa, the youngest and only girl among the three children cried, but the guys paid no heed to her.“Come on Lisa, don't be scared.” Hardin, who was the oldest and the son of Carter and Aurora, urged her. “I promise nothing will happen to you, I will protect you.”“Yes.” Kol added. “We will protect you. You are our princess, remember?” Kol asked and Melissa quickly nodded her head.Kol was Arthur’s son and Melissa was Declan’s daughter.Hardin, the oldest was seven years old, Kol was six and Melissa was four. The two guys adored Melissa.“Good. So take my hand and let me guide you down.” Melissa, despite the fear gripping her little heart, stretched her hand forward to Hardin, who took it and carefully led the way down the steep road that led to the little river which was their destination.Carter and Arthur had brought the little guys to the river a few days ago
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-THREE.ARTHUR’S POV.When Aurora first told me that she was going to try to talk Carter into the merging Royal High, I tried to discourage her from doing so because I thought she was only going to provoke him. I mean, the guy are up in a Royal household and he has always been treated special all his life. Telling him people like him had equal rights with other ordinary pack members was going to sting his heart and who knows what he might do, but I guess I was wrong. Aurora made the suggestion and he welcomed it which further proved his wiseness as a true Alpha.Today was the inauguration party of the new merged Shadow High School and I was elated to attend and see rich split kids be put in their places.Most leaders opposed the merge, but Alpha Carter paid no heed to this because he knew that was the right thing to do.The ceremony is taking place in the school hall and I am one of the people seated at the high table.Who would have thought I would be a
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-TWO.AURORA’S POV.News of my pregnancy spread like wildfire. The entire pack was in immense joy when they found out that their Future alpha was already on the way. I have never received so many gifts in my entire life. Every pack member sent at least a gift for the heir I was carrying.It's been a few months now and everything is going on smoothly. My pregnancy journey is amazing, exhausting and annoying.Amazing in the sense that everyone treats me so nicely wherever I go. They have all totally forgotten about the fact that I used to be a mere omega and a low life especially after Carter cleared my father’s name. It feels really good to be treated nicely by others.It is exhausting because I'm getting heavier as the days go by. Werewolf pregnancies last a much less shorter term because pups develop faster than humans, so at two months, I already have a huge bump and I will be going birth soon.And lastly, it is annoying because Carter won’t let me do a
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-ONE.AURORA’S POV.“Declan and Arthur are such lucky guys. Their mates are so pretty!” Aurora gushes once we get into our bedroom. Since I'm the last to get in, I close the door behind me and walk over to her.“That would mean I'm the luckiest of them all.” I pull her into arms and she looks at me, smiling.“And, why do you say so?”“Because you, my mate, are the most beautiful woman to ever Grace this earth.” I compliment from the depth of my heart.She blushes hard. Her cheeks turn tomato red and she buries her face into my chest to hide the shyness on her face.“Stop it!” She mumbles under her breath and I laugh at her.“You still get shy every time I give you a compliment. That’s cute to watch.“Oh you go away!” She pushes my chest and escapes from my hold. I watch in silence as she sits on the plays with her fingers.“Things are moving better than I expected them to move.” I approach the bed and perch by her side. She looks up at me, curiosity fille
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY.CARTER’S POV.The moment I stretch my hand to knock on my room door, my phone rings in my pocket. Bloody hell! This is like the one thousandth phone call I'm receiving today. I quickly withdrew my hand and fish the phone out of my pocket. Arthur’s name flashes on the caller ID and I furrow my brows.He hardly calls me after work hours. I wonder what’s wrong.I answer the call and press the phone on my ear, holding it with my left hand while I knock on the door with my right.“Hello, Arthur.” I greet.“Alpha Carter.” He calls and I do an eye roll. I have asked several times to quit addressing me as Alpha Carter and just call me Carter, but he just won’t listen.“Yes, Beta Arthur.” I address him as such so as to irritate him. He hates it when I call him that. He lets out a heavy sigh which makes me understand that he doesn’t want to have this argument with me. What he has to say must be very important for him to dismiss this chance of argument. Arthur is
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-NINE.ARTHURS'S POV.My life has changed.A few months ago, I used to be one of the outcasts of the pack. A low life, but today, here lam, living in the castle and helping out with pack activities, I can only be grateful to Aurora for paving the way to my success. If I didn't come to fight Alpha Carter that night, I would have been locked up in the dungeon and I would not be here, doing something more useful with my life. I am truly grateful to her.Every time I remember that I used to have a crush on her, I hit myself hard. I can't believe I had asked her to run away with me. That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever done in my entire life.Trying to convince someone else's mate to flee with me.Carter and Aurora started on a very bad foot. They hated each other and Carter treated her really poorly, but right now, they are inseparable. They are not only the best lovers, but they are the best Alpha and Luna. The pack is doing very well because of how
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-EIGHT.DECLAN'S POV.I have been on an emotional roller coaster for the past months. Right now, I don't even know what I'm feeling. My father was killed by the evil Beta Gideon, my brother almost forced to marry Chloe who is now of late as well. I was locked up in the dungeon for a week with barely any food or water. I thought I was going to die until my brother came and saved me and everyone else in the cell, including his mate.Now that he has taken over as he should, the pack is at peace and everything is going on smoothly as they should. I'm happy that he is leading the pack the way our father would have wanted him to, but I'm sad because our father is no longer here with us.It's true that we only miss what we have when we lose it.When my father was alive, the last thing I did was spend time with him. I was always in my space, doing my own thing. I used to tum down every guting he proposed, but right now, I wish he was here to do all those things.
Chapter 128Aurora's POV.Carter had been all over the place, for the party that was to hold tomorrow It has been a few days since he took me to that hill for a picnic. I'm glad he did.I neve knew I needed that, till I made my way up there. The gentle gust of wind that kept blowing over the tree that we were underneath it, was something else. I never knew such a place existed in the Shadow pack.It was more than beautiful. Well, I don't even want to talk about what happened after I pressed my lips against his.We literally went naked on top of that hill.It was a crazy but rare feeling. Something I would like to experience again and again. Oh, I almost forgot that, I had to pay doctor Savanna a visit. I had promised to go see her, after I saw some changes in my body.However, Carter had come up with his whole picnic thing, which I couldn't deny him.I enjoyed every bit of it.Carter, Declan and Arthur had left early in the morning; to complete the preparations for tomorrow.
Chapter 127Carter’s POV.The days have slowly passed by, and I am so happy for the new development. Everything was going on smoothly, like nothing had happened before. Still, I’m happy with the way that things were moving. At least this shows that there was some hope for us and to every other member in this pack. I was going to do my best to make sure that everyone is fine and they have nothing to worry about. My father is dead and automatically I become the new alpha, which means that the life of every member in this pack is in my hands and I need to protect them with everything that I have. Aside from that, today was the day I am going to take Aurora to the surprise I have been planning all along. No one knew about this. It was just me and my wolf and that of Auroras too, because I know that laden must be communicating with her and eventually he must have told her everything, which was OK by me. However, I have told him that none of these should get to Aurora. It
