NADIA.

The day I’ve been waiting for finally came. Riley decided it was time to meet his mother. Zahra flew from Atlanta with Leandro, but we decided that she would be the only one meeting Riley for now. We didn’t want to overwhelm my mate with Leandro and the twins.

Zahra was already at the restaurant that Riley had booked when we arrived.

My heart was thudding loudly the moment I saw her sitting at our reserved table with a worried expression on her face. I’ve never seen Zahra in such a state. She was always classy, elegant, and full of confidence, even on those days when we talked about Riley. I’d always see the longing in her eyes, but I’d never seen her confidence drop as low as the one I saw in her right now.

I walked towards her with Riley trailing behind me, and she stood up as soon as her gaze fell on us.

I had no idea what Riley was feeling at the moment because he had his wall up again.

My arms snaked around Zahra as she pulled me into a tight hug.

"You look lovely, sweethe

I would assume that one of Riley's twin sisters is mated to one of Alba's twin brothers..

He’s being cordial at least. Baby steps. Just take baby steps for now.

I agree with him. Too much, too fast, too soon. He is still adjusting to EVERYTHING he’s found out.

    NADIA. "Leandro, right? I really don’t have business with him, but if that will make you happy, you can tag him along next time, and everyone else you want to introduce me to." His voice was so cold that it sent shivers down my spine. I closed my eyes as my heart clenched with pain for Zahra. I blocked off all my walls so as to not let Riley feel my emotions. He was too cold-hearted. "I guess if that’s all, then we can end this. I have things to do. Nadia will just inform you when we can meet next time." Riley continued, and my eyes snapped open in disbelief. My eyes were still wide as I looked at him. Our gaze met, and I opened my mouth to speak. "I’m not done with my food." "I’ll make one for you at home. I can do better than the steak here." My jaw dropped open as I watched him wipe his mouth with the napkin and place it back on the table. I turned my head towards Zahra at the same time I heard Riley’s chair screech, letting me know he was about to stand up. Zahra smiled at

    NADIA. My birthday would be in a week’s time, and Jenny and I decided to drive to the neutral city to buy things we would be needing for my birthday dinner. Initially, Riley wanted to spend my birthday with just the two of us somewhere away from the territory, but the event with his mother changed everything. We decided to have a private dinner with just a few guests, which included his mother and her family. And I couldn’t be more excited. Riley and I didn’t discuss again his meeting with Zahra, but he would ask me for information once in a while about my experience with them, especially about his sisters. Even if he wasn’t saying anything, I think he looked forward more to meeting the twins. And I wished I could pull the days faster so it would be my birthday soon. I couldn’t remember any birthdays that I was excited about except this one. I guess having Riley did change everything for me and my outlook on life. I was eager to wake up each day just to see my mate because my real

    NADIA."Don’t worry, Luna. It’s an ally Alpha. We’re not in danger." Tristan spoke, a smirk forming on his lips as he nodded his head in my direction.But before he could even finish his words, the big, black wolf shifted in front of us, revealing a very naked Alpha Aeon.My eyes widened, my gaze focusing on his face as he strode forward toward us. His eyes were dilating into black as he stared at the female crouching on the ground a few feet away from me.Jenny hissed beside me at the sight of Alpha Aeon while one of the warriors moved fast to pick up an extra short from their car and handed it to the Alpha even before he could come near us. He slipped on his shorts without any words, throwing one last glance at Alexa before shifting his gaze to me."Luna Nadia," he greeted, cocking his head, to which I replied with a simple nod."Alpha Aeon, what are you doing here?" I asked him.He pointed a finger at Alexa. "I’m taking her."Alexa jolted from her position, and in an instant she w

    RILEY. My eyes found Nadia and the female who was trying to touch her. This is not a fucking child! And before I could stop myself, I was already growling and rushing toward my mate. I was almost on the verge of snapping the female’s neck if Aeon didn’t speak up. Although I wasn’t comfortable having a rogue in my car or my territory, I trusted Aeon. I could see there was something more to this female. And if he thought she could provide him with the information he needed, who was I to stop him? Aeon’s mother, Alpha Argon’s Luna, was beheaded by a self-proclaimed Rogue Alpha of the South. And ever since the day she died, Argon hasn’t stopped looking for him. He wanted his head and he made sure Aeon had the same goal. And although Aeon was acting a bit strange, I couldn’t totally read him. That’s the fucking annoying thing about Alphas, you can’t easily read their emotions. What they show might be different from what they think and feel. I chuckled internally at my thoughts. I al

    A week after. NADIA. The week just went by swiftly, but I couldn’t complain. My days were filled with too many activities, and I was thankful that I was having a normal pregnancy. My pup has never given me any nausea or any problems, aside from my addiction to custard cake and decaffeinated coffee. Yes, coffee. Maybe because it was Riley’s scent that whenever he wasn’t around me, I craved him more and the scent of coffee helped me get through the hours without him. And I missed Laura’s cake. Although I was able to force Jenny to help me make one, we couldn’t get the perfect taste like the one Laura made for me in Atlanta. But when Zahra told me that Laura had made one for me and that she was taking it today, it made me happy all morning. I could already feel the custard cake melting in my mouth. All I was thinking right now was how to keep it to make sure no one would see it and take it away from me. And no, Riley was not an exception. He could probably taste it, but one spoon is e

    (YOUNG) ALPHA CALEB. I had nothing scheduled for the day, so I pulled Dawson away from his computer games, and we drove off to Riley’s territory. I knew we were too early for Nadia’s birthday dinner, but I had been wanting to visit my cousin’s territory for another reason. Anya. When I met her almost six months ago, I asked when she would be turning eighteen, and she told me the exact day. It was a couple of days ago, and Nadia’s birthday dinner was just the perfect timing. I was hoping she would be here tonight, but if not, I had to find a way to see her, even if that meant visiting her home. But the thing was, I just couldn’t ask Sebastian. Riley’s Gamma was a known playboy before he met Jenny, and I believe it was for the same reason he was so protective of his sister when it came to dating. So asking him would be out of the question. I had to find a way to see Anya on my own. I’ve never been so taken with a woman that I couldn’t stop thinking about her for days. Fuck that! T

  • 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. Dominic was out somewhere for work and Dawson was on the training grounds.After Zahra and Leandro’s deaths, the twins moved out of Atlanta and transferred directly into the territory, and were initiated into the

    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
