“Wait, Kayla,” Alpha Edward said, his voice pleading. “I know I’ve made mistakes, but please don’t leave the pack. You are important to me, and to the pack. We need you.”“I don’t care,” Kayla said, her voice cold. “I can’t stay in a pack where the alpha is willing to do such a thing to his own son, and his mate. I’m done.”Drake looked at Alpha Edward, his eyes filled with anger and disappointment. Vanessa just stood there speechless. “Kayla, we need his help!”. She said, moving over to Kayla's side.“Only he can get Lucian’s out!”.She hugged her, as Kayla wept on her shoulder.“I grew up with him, Vanessa. I have seen him cry every night, blaming himself for his parents death. He had torture his mate’s parent for a crime they didn’t commit. Lucian had never for once been at peace”. She cried.“From the moment his parents died, when Ava left him and when she found out about her parents. There was never any amount of happiness in his life. Why? All he did was come into this life!”.
Vanessa moved around anxiously, taking one thing after the other.“What are you doing?”. Enzo asked, following her around.“I’m trying to make a protection portion for alpha Edward. He’s likely to get trapped in the illusion, because of what he did”. She explained.“Why? Since he knows what he did and ready to face the consequences, he should not be needing a protection portion”. Enzo said bitterly, staring at his father with hatred in his eyes.Vanessa turned around to face him, her eyes full of sadness. “I know that what Alpha Edward did was terrible, and I understand why you are angry with him. But he is still Lucian’s father, and I want to make sure that he is safe.”“You’re too forgiving. He doesn’t deserve your forgiveness.” Enzo said, his voice cold.“Maybe not, but I’m not doing this for him. I’m doing this for Lucian. And he is still your father, Enzo”. Vanessa replied, trying to reason with him.“Adoptive father, he is not my father! And why would you help someone like him?”
“Never meant to hurt me? You took everything from me, Alpha Edward. My family, my home, the one who I called my father. My whole life was turned upside down because of you. And you’re standing there telling me that you never meant to hurt me? That’s a joke, right?” I said, my voice filled with anger and hurt. “If I wasn’t your son, you would have never adopted me right?”. I asked, moving close to him.Alpha Edward looked down, his expression pained. “I knew it”. I let out a chuckle.“You’re so selfish alpha…...”.“You’re wrong, Lucian,” Alpha Edward said, his voice firm. “I’m not selfish. I made a mistake, and I’m trying to fix it. I know I can’t take back what I did, but I want to make things right. I want to make things better, for you and for me. I’m sorry for the pain I caused you, and I’m sorry for everything that’s happened. Please give me a chance to make it up to you.”"I am aware that I have wronged you, your mother, and James...""My father. That is how you will refer to h
“My whole life has just been based on lies.. lies. Everyone I loved had lied to me. I never did anything wrong!”. “I will never forgive you for this!”. I swore.His eyes widened in shock, “no please. You need to let go of your anger or else you will never get out of here!”. “I’m sorry, I know what I did was wrong and I am not asking you to forgive me but……. F-for the sake of the love and respect you have for me!”. I rush towards him, grabbing him by the collar.“I have no love or respect for you, Edward!. You do not deserve any of my respect love. You do not deserve to be my father!”. I yelled angrily. “For 24 years, I have been hating on people that I was not supposed to. I had deprived Ava of the love of her parents, thinking they were the cause of my problem, and you dare speak of love and respect?”. Edward's eyes widened in shock as I continued to speak, my voice shaking with anger and hurt."I have spent years blaming others for my own mistakes, for the sin you committed. I
**AT THE PACK**“Oh no!”. Vanessa murmured fearfully.“What's wrong?”. They all asked at once.“Alpha Edward did not take the portion!”. She gasped, showing them the vail.“That is not possible I gave them to him myself!”. Enzo murmured, staring at the portion in Vanessa's hand.“Fuck!”. She murmured frustratedly, running her hands through her hair.“This is bad!”. She added.“What’s gonna happen now?”. Enzo murmured."This is bad," Enzo said, his brow furrowed in concern. "If Alpha Edward doesn't take the portion, he could die."“I don't know,” Vanessa said, her voice trembling. “I can't believe this is happening,” Vanessa said, shaking her head in disbelief. “Why would he not take the portion?”.“Probably felt too guilty and proud to take it!”. Kayla said, rolling her eyes.“There’s only three hours left before midnight!”. Vanessa murmured.“Vanessa, will he be fine?”. Enzo murmured, fear written all over his face.“That only depends on your goddess!”.*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*
"I...I don't know," he said, his voice shaking. "I just...I just want to be happy with Ava and the kids. But I don't know what that looks like without Oliver." Lucian murmured“I know it's a difficult decision, Lucian. But I'll support you no matter what you choose. Whether you want to sever our connection or not, I'll always be here for you." Oliver said, trying to hide the pain and fear in his voice.“We don’t have all day Lucian, I will come back again in two hours, make your decision before then, Lucian. And as for you alpha Edward, await your punishment!”. She said, smiling mysteriously.Alpha Edward stiffened, his eyes widening. "Punishment?" he asked, a note of fear in his voice. "What kind of punishment?""You will find out soon enough," the moon goddess said, her tone enigmatic. "I will return in two hours, so prepare yourself." With that, she vanished into thin air, leaving Lucian and Alpha Edward alone in the dark.Lucian turned to Alpha Edward, his expression solemn. "Wha
Lucian stood still, his eyes fixed on the horizon. He didn't know what to say, or how to respond. Part of him wanted to lash out, but he knew that wouldn't help. And not long after, the goddess came back.“Lucian, what do you wish for?”. She asked, her tone firm and commanding.Lucian smirks, taking two steps closer.“I wish to sever all connections with the werewolves," he said, his voice steady and resolute. "But I want to keep my lycan. I want to be free from their influence, and I don't want to lose a part of myself in the process."“What???”. She gasped in surprise.“That is two wishes not one!”. “So? Two wishes is too much for your powers and you can’t fulfil them?”. Lucian asked arrogantly.The goddess raised an eyebrow, looking amused by Lucian's cheeky remark. "Two wishes is not too much for my powers," she said, her tone teasing. "But I am curious why you would make such a request. Why are you so desperate to escape the werewolves? Or you’re just a coward, just a little pa
“Chill, I’m just hugging my brother, I’m not stealing him away from you!”.“No, not that!”. He said, his tone serious, causing Lucain to disengage from Enzo and far him.“What’s wrong?”. Lucian asked, turning to face drake.“I c-can’t feel your alpha aura!”. Drake murmured. Lucian's heart skipped a beat as he processed what Drake had said. "What do you mean you can't feel my alpha aura?”. He closed his eyes, trying to sense his own alpha aura, but it was gone. He opened his eyes, and saw the concern on Drake's face. "It's like you're no longer a werewolf," Drake said, his voice filled with worry. "But you're not a human either”. Drake looked at him, worry etched on his face. "I don't know," he said. "You feel...different."“Oliver!”. Lucian called in his head, silencing begging and praying he would get a response.“Please don’t do this to me, I haven’t even made a decision yet. Fucking answer me Oliver!”. He yelled in his mind.Lucian's heart was pounding in his chest as he waite
