NADIA.

It was already past midnight and Riley hadn't returned to our room. I badly wanted to see and talk with him. I had no idea what happened, and I was hoping he had calmed down by now.

I kept thinking about where I messed up or what I did wrong.

Maybe he was tired of me already.

Did he meet someone new? I thought the mate bond was strong enough for someone to overcome temptation? Or maybe I was just not good enough.

He has never abandoned me at night except for that one time I told him he couldn't sleep beside me. All the time, he would be here by eight or nine in the evening.

And I also kept looking out at the forest ground, checking if Hunter went out for a run, but I didn't see him. He must just be somewhere around the pack house or in his office.

I waited for a few more minutes, and when I couldn't take his absence anymore, I put on my robe and headed downstairs.

The pack house was already quiet, and the front door was locked. Only the dimmed lights were on, and the lig

Poor Riley, he’s so damaged and been that way from such a young age. With the cracks in him just spreading, becoming deeper and deeper, to the point where it’ll be hard to repair them and fully recover. And Nadia, poor thing! Her and her emotions get tossed back and forth like a boomerang

This whole chapter hurt too much! I’m crying & upset cuz Riley never seems to learn! Nadia doesn’t do half of the things he thinks! Her horrible uncle is probably going to find her & do terrible things to her! This makes me so sad!

    BETA DOMINIC."Again, Jenny. Where did she go?""Alpha, I don’t know. She didn’t tell me. I told you everything I knew and where I dropped her.""I appreciate your loyalty to your Luna, but you just put her in danger by letting her go. So don’t make me fucking roll off the Alpha command on you before you tell me everything else!""Alpha! My mate is not lying, and I will not allow you to roll off that command on her! And please stop blaming Jenny or us for letting her go because we fucking all know she left because of you!"The Alpha’s eyes blazed with fire, and I knew it was only a matter of time before his wolf would take over.I needed to butt in."Jenny, you may take your leave. Sebastian and I will handle this.""No. I didn’t get what I needed from her."I went to Jenny’s side and held her arm, nodding at her as I guided her towards the door. Sebastian was watching, but I knew he was in agreement with me. We needed to put Riley back on his feet and leave Jenny out of this."Fuck y

    RILEY. It’s been five days since she left, and I still have no fucking clue where she was. If there’s anything, Benedict Solange seemed to have nothing to do with her disappearance. He just went about his daily business and was never seen doing anything suspicious. But I wondered if he was the one who sent me the envelope. Or if it was Nadia’s uncle. Darvin told me that he was released from prison and was banished from the pack. And he has no idea where he was. I have sent trackers for him as well. But up to now, there has been no news. Like Nadia, it was like they had just disappeared from the thin air. I was trying to get by and hold on to the only thing that was keeping me sane - Nadia’s scent. I was trying to keep her scent in our bedroom, and haven’t let anyone in, even to clean up. But it was still meticulously tidy. I didn’t want to trample the last place she was in and kept everything in place except for her clothes, which were my steady companion wherever I would lie d

    One Month Later. RILEY. She was still nowhere. I couldn't find her. My hair had grown longer and so had my misery. I didn’t know how many nights I had skipped sleeping. And if I slept only because my body gave up. I spent my awake time looking for her, making calls, and visiting places I would never even imagine going to. But there was still nothing. I was slowly losing my stance, but I tried to put on a brave facade. Behind closed doors, I was slowly crumbling. Everything in this pack house reminded me of her. And my wolf wasn't making it easy for me either. Hunter refused to come out, and we hadn’t had a full run for the full month. And although he was with me, I felt terribly alone. The only thing that was keeping me sane was the thought that she was still alive. That I haven’t felt any massive pain through our bond, and that she hasn’t been intimate with another man. Despite losing her, she was still my driving force. A week ago, I finally had the courage to face my peo

    NADIA. It has been more than a month since I left the Silver Moon Pack. And although there was never a day that I didn’t long for my mate, I think I was doing okay. Riley’s scent on his clothes that I took with me has already faded. Nothing was left of him, and it was painful. I could vividly remember my heat two weeks ago when I tried to scent his clothes to get me through the pain and so that I could have my release, but it was no longer there. I spent the whole night crying and trashing my rented space. I was so close to packing up my things and running back to him until my body just gave up and I passed out. I was having a harder time moving on now than the first time we got separated. Maybe because by now, I already knew how it felt to be his. And no matter how many times I kept telling myself that it was him that drove me to this misery, I still couldn’t find it in my heart to hate him. If there was only one consolation from all of this, it was that Riley had never been inti

    NADIA ¤¤¤¤¤ FLASHBACK. TWO DAYS AFTER I FIRST MET ZAHRA. She invited me to her home. Her two daughters were in school - they were attending classes at a university nearby and wouldn’t be home until later that day. Her mate, on the other hand, was at work, so it was just us. We were standing by the door of the storage room in the basement of their house. She told me she wanted to show me everything she kept for Riley. And my eyes couldn’t believe what I was seeing. There were tons of gift-wrapped boxes for almost all occasions. The gifts were neatly placed on shelves, except for those that were too big and were standing on the floor. I ran my fingers over them, skimming the wrappers as my eyes read the short notes that she had written in there. "I tried sending them many times, but they all came back untouched. I even sent it to my parents so they could give it to him and begged them to present it as their gift to him, but it was also returned. There were times I would be brave

    ZAHRA. I set the custard cake and the small plates on the table as we waited for Nadia to arrive. My good friend, Laura, a human, recently bought this place and is now managing the boutique that sells clothes for females. She is human, but she is mated to a shifter like me, and I had mentioned Nadia a couple of times, and she was also eager to meet her. I worked at the town’s library, but I had no scheduled work today, and so was Nadia, so I took this time to let the two of them meet. Nadia and I were spending most of our free time together. It felt like having a third daughter. Ellie and Bella, my lovely darlings, are both wonderful, but they are the exact opposite of each other. Ellie is the geeky one. Well, a bookworm she said, and she would spend almost all of her free time burying her nose in her books or on her computer doing technical stuff I was not even interested in knowing. On the other hand, Bella, on the other hand, is the outgoing one, who would spend days outside t

    BETA DOMINIC.I had just got off the shower and had put on fresh clothes when I heard movements in the living room of the suite the Alpha and I shared. I went out to see Alpha Riley slumped on the couch, his head leaning on the headrest with his eyes closed. "How was your night?" I asked him as I walked to the adjacent kitchen and started operating the coffee machine. "Coffee?" "Yes, strong one." He answered. "Check flights back to Hartley within the day. We're going home." A smile crept onto my lips as I turned around to look at him. "So you talked with her? Three tickets then?" "Just two. She’s not coming with us." He answered coldly."What? She said no and you’re just giving up and fucking off? What the fuck, man!" "Shut the fuck up!" "What exactly did you tell her?" "I didn’t talk with her. Heck, I didn’t even come near her.""What? Fuck, you’re really fucked up! You spent weeks looking for her relentlessly and now that she’s just a few feet away from you, you're cowering

    NADIA. After breakfast with the Graysons, Zahra drove me to the diner before she went off to her work. Lunchtime was just over, and the crowd was starting to calm down. I am tired and I still have four hours to go. But at least I would have my lunch in thirty minutes. I could get my rest. I was scouting the whole diner if there were any booths that needed to be cleaned so I could tell Johanna, but it looked like everything had been handled. I was about to go back to the counter when the door opened. My instinct told me to turn around and welcome the customer, but I didn’t expect to see the person who had just come in. My heart leaped as I saw Beta Dominic. He flashed his boyish smile, and I suddenly forgot where I was. All I was thinking was that if he was here, Riley must be behind him. I moved forward and hugged him tightly before I got hold of myself. "Oh, I’m sorry. I just got excited." He laughed before he bowed his head slightly at me. "I’m glad to see you, Luna. I mean

  • THROUGH THE EYES OF MY ALPHA   Epilogue

    12 YEARS AFTER THE LUNA CEREMONY RILEY. "Zach, come here." My firm voice echoed in the cemetery as Zach walked toward us with a solemn expression on his face. Just by the sound of my voice, he knew I was upset with him. He sat down in front of me and Nadia, crossing his legs and sitting on them as he clasped his hands together before locking eyes with mine. That was one thing I taught my son, to look me in the eyes whenever I talked with him. "Explain why you shouted at Amber earlier," I asked him, my forehead creasing. We just came from Caspian and Andrea’s twins’ 10th birthday party. The whole time, we saw Zach tease and taunt Amber, which was not his usual behavior. But we didn’t mind. Zach has always behaved, except whenever Amber was around. And Caspian’s little princess never backed down and would always fight back whenever Zach attempted to annoy her. And all the time they would make a fuzz, we just let it slide because, at the end of the day, they would still be attached

    EIGHT YEARS LATER.RILEY."Harder! Please! Oh yes! More!" Nadia was whimpering under my hold, and I obliged. My hand was gripping her hips tightly as I grunted while I pounced into her. She was a temptress. I woke up with her mouth on my dick, giving me pleasure that only she could provide, before demanding I fuck her as payback for my early treat. And I was more than willing to pay."Nadia... Fuck!" I groaned, my mouth pressed against her hair. Her sweet scent combined with the smell of her arousal was giving me an ultimate high. Like my own personal fucking drug.I was having the best time of my life when a sudden movement from outside our room caught my ears. And then soft knocks came.Nadia was so lost in ecstasy, and that was probably the reason she didn’t hear the soft knocks. Soon, I caught a whiff of Nikka, my youngest twin daughter. She was the one behind the door.Shit! I didn’t want to stop fucking Nadia. I could feel her on the brink of her release. We were standing, her

    The Luna Ceremony. NADIA. My union ceremony with Riley as well as my Luna Ceremony just ended an hour ago. The ballroom was now buzzing with guests from almost all the packs that we had an alliance with. Some of the Lunas I had met, but there were new faces as well. But most importantly, Katarina was here. With her very own Alpha. I watched with happiness overwhelming my heart as my best friend danced gracefully in the arms of the man she wanted and, eventually, the one she ended up with. She had a tough ride, but she made it through. If there was anyone who deserved happiness, it was the female who stood up for me all these years. The only female who made me feel important even when I had nothing to offer her back. "They looked good together…" Riley’s warm and comforting breath fanned through over my neck as he brushed his lips against my skin, bringing tingles and sparks that only he could give me. His arm coiled around my body as I turned around and snuggled into him while my a

    ALPHA DARVIN. "Where do you think you’re going?" Katarina’s voice reached my ears as I was about to step out of the packhouse. She must have descended the stairs and caught my scent. I spun around, a wide grin on my face as I looked at my sister, who was approaching with her eyebrows hiked up as she looked at me from head to toe. "Are you wearing a perfume?" She asked. "Does it smell bad?" I answered almost immediately. "No. It actually smells nice but… just wondering why?" I couldn’t blame her for her curiosity. Werewolves emit scents that are simply attractive to other wolves, and a special scent just for their mate, so there was simply no need to shower in perfume. Unless, of course, your mate happens to be human and would not be able to scent your special scent. "Oh Goddess, did you brush up your hair and clean your face too?" Katarina came forward and cupped my face. "Darvin, are you okay?" I chuckled as I held her palms and withdrew them from my cheeks. "Do I look good?"

    ALPHA DARVIN. After thinking about it for months, I finally had the courage to dial her number. My wolf, Titan, was getting weaker, and I was getting restless. We wanted to at least hear her voice, even if it was for the last time. After three rings, she picked up her mobile phone, and her sweet voice was like music to my ears. "Hello…" I said I just wanted to hear her voice, but I couldn’t find it in me to drop the call. I would wait until she does. A few seconds had gone by and she was still on the line and I could hear her breathing. "Hello…" She said it one more time before she let out a deep sigh, and I knew she would be dropping the phone call soon. "Is this Celeste?" I didn’t know what got into me. All I knew was that I suddenly didn’t like the idea of her hanging up. "Yes. Who’s this?" But her voice sounded chirpier this time. "This is Darvin… I’m not sure if you remember me, but I am…" "Darvin… Riley’s friend…" She cut me off, and I don’t know why, but I could pictur

    NADIA."What time are Bella and Trent coming?" I asked Ellie for the nth time, and she giggled again, as she did earlier. "I don’t know. Why don't you believe me?" "She’s your twin. I’m sure she tells you everything." I answered her. We were all planning to visit the cemetery today, but we haven’t heard of Bella and Trent if they were already on their way here."Well, not anymore. We don’t talk about sex and stuff, and I think that’s what Bella and Trent have been doing mostly these days." Her eyes were squinting as she laughed heartily the moment she saw her brother’s head snapped up to look at her with an annoyed expression on his face.We were eating lunch in the dining room. Only the three of us were around since Sebastian and Jenny were eating lunch with their mothers.

    BETA DOMINIC. I was on the other side of the territory with Alpha Riley when Gamma Sebastian’s message came. He stated that he had granted Sofia permission to enter the territory and that she was on her way to the packhouse. My mind went into a haze. She was not supposed to be traveling at a time like this. Since the incident with Zahra, all of the Alphas in the area have agreed to only travel with females when absolutely necessary. And having her travel without Alpha Darvin with her didn’t sit well with me. "Alpha," I called for my Alpha’s attention. "Hmmm..." he replied before turning his gaze on me. "Do you think you’ll be fine if I leave you alone here? Sofia is on her way to the packhouse with just Alpha Darvin’s men with her." "What the fuck is she doing here?" I shrugged my shoulders before I brushed my hand over my hair. "I had no fucking idea." "Go then. I’ll just wrap it up here and tell Nadia I’ll be home soon after." I cocked my head to the side in submission befo

    NADIA. The packhouse was still gloomy, but it was swarming with warriors today. Riley has stepped up the security within the packhouse and around the territory. The vast neutral forest connecting Alpha Caspian and Alpha Darvin’s territories with us was now rounded up by warriors from all three packs. There was already security before, but it wasn’t as established as it is now. After breakfast, Riley stayed in his office with Alpha Aeon. The Alpha arrived early this morning to pay respect to Zahra, and they’ve been discussing something behind closed doors. Only the Beta and the Gamma were allowed inside, and even Jenny had no idea what was going on. But I wasn’t worried. I knew Riley would let me know once we had our time alone. I was relieved that at least he was moving around and discussing things rather than being stuck in one place. Not that he was not allowed to mourn Zahra, but I didn’t want him to feel that he hadn’t made Zahra happy, because I knew that even in the short ti
