AEROS “They attacked my mansion,” I growled as I slammed my fist on the table angrily. “He started this, so why shouldn’t I give him a taste of his own medicine?”“Alpha Aeros, you need to calm down,” one of the elders sitting among my council members said. “He is only doing this because of the girl, so why don’t you hand the girl over?”“Hand her over?” I scoffed. “She is mine. Plus, we all know that the only reason he wants her back is because he knows I have taken an interest in her.”“She is not a member of our pack,” another elder grumbled.Ever since the meeting began, they had all been against going to war with Tyler. Not that they were afraid of his pack, but because they were afraid of what I might do.“But she is here now, and I am going to protect her no matter what, even if it’s the last thing I do.”I meant every single word I had just said. For some reason, I had developed this very strong sense of protecting Elarian. After what happened to my mate, I wanted nothing mor

Elarian“Elarian,” Jonathan called out my name softly at the door, and I glanced up at him sharply. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t hear him open the door. The look on his face made me feel like something was wrong.As if the only reason he was standing in front of my door was because he had some bad news for me. But what could it be?“Aeros was involved in an accident,” he announced, and I didn’t respond or react immediately. I just stared back at him in shock.“What!”“I just got a call not too long ago. I guess he lost control of the wheel, but he’s with the healer as we speak, and she has assured me that he will be fine.”It took a few seconds for my brain to process what he had just said. “Can I see him?” I asked as I jumped out of bed and moved closer to him.“He’s unconscious, and the healer said he needs all the rest he can get.”“What happened? How did he leave the mansion without any form of—”“Things got out of control at the council meeting, and I wasn’t aware h

AerosI almost killed her! I could have killed her! I whispered to myself as I paced the length of my room, nervously biting down on my lower lip while the healer attended to the unconscious Elarian on the bed.If I couldn’t protect Blair, then I should at least be able to protect Elarian. I couldn’t let her go down the same road as Blair.“You need to calm down, Aeros. It was just an accident. You can’t beat yourself up for it,” Jonathan said calmly as he placed his hand on my shoulder and squeezed it gently.I shrugged him off.“That’s easy for you to say when you’re not the one that almost killed her. I would have to live with it for the rest of my life if anything, anything at all, happened to her.”“You’re overthinking this. You should get some sleep and have something to eat. Don’t forget you’re injured too.” Jonathan tried to persuade me, but I didn’t let him do that.Before I could respond, the healer walked up to us and said, “She will be fine. She was just shaken up a littl

Aeros“Hey!” Jonathan snapped his fingers in front of me, jolting me out of my thoughts. “Whoa… you weren’t even listening to me. Is something wrong?” he asked as he shut the document we had been going through before I lost track of what he was explaining.“Yeah… uh… I’m good. You were saying we should reinforce the guards at the outskirts of our territory.” I tried to sound convincing enough, but he didn’t buy it.He raised a brow at me suspiciously.“No, that’s not what I said. I was showing you my ideas on the… you know what, never mind, just tell me what’s on your mind.”“There’s nothing, and I’m sorry. I just have a lot on my mind lately. Nothing serious, though.” I responded as I eased back into my seat.He sighed deeply. “It’s so difficult to try and talk to you at times. You shut me out, and I really don’t know how to deal with it anymore. Listen to me, Aeros, I know Blair would have loved to see you happy again. What happened was unfortunate, but you can’t let it make your li

ElarianI loved him, and there was no denying that fact. I could feel myself drowning in his scent and getting overwhelmed with the urge to have him by my side all the time. Being in his arms even made the lower part of my neck, right before my shoulders, tingle.There was nothing more that I wanted than for him to mark me, and it scared me because I knew and had experienced firsthand just how unpredictable he could be.He might wake up the next morning and decide that he didn’t want to have anything to do with me, or he might retreat further into his shell after a couple of hours of making me feel so loved. These fears haunted me every single time I tried to open up to him about being my mate, so I made a decision to keep it to myself and see how things would play out.Maybe someday… someday… he would feel the bond too and realize that this could be our precious second chance that the Moon Goddess had so generously bestowed on us.He had lost his mate, and as for mine… well… that on

AEROSIt had barely been a few hours since I left the house before I began to lose control of myself. The overwhelming urge to see her and claim her took me by surprise, and I had never felt anything like it before.I managed to pull through a few meetings, but on our way to the last one, something inside of me snapped. I had never felt anything like it before, and Xavier did not make things any easier.He was spiraling out of control, and I could feel it. He missed her and craved her presence so much that he became restless and unable to focus.“Turn the car around,” I suddenly ordered the guard behind the wheel.Jonathan, who was sitting beside me, shot me a look immediately. “Are you okay? Is something wrong?” he asked out of genuine concern.I didn’t respond to him though; I just shook my head and repeated the same order to the guard, who was sincerely confused and had no idea what to do, so he just brought the car to a halt.“What’s going on, Aeros? What do you mean by turning th

ELARIAN The tingling sensation on my neck was both a mixture of pain and pleasure, but that pleasure was instantly replaced by excruciating pain when he slammed those words right in my face.“What…what do you mean by that?” I looked up at him in utter confusion, but he wouldn’t even meet my eyes. He was intentionally avoiding my gaze.This was what I had been so scared of from the start. I knew at one point or another, he would act up like this, and he was doing just that now. My legs were trembling underneath me, unable to hold me up anymore, but I struggled to stand.“Look me in the eyes, Aeros, and repeat those words again,” I demanded, but he still wouldn’t do that. He attempted to walk out on me, but I didn’t intend to let him off the hook that easily.I quickly stepped in front of him and planted my feet down in a very confronting manner. He glared at me with contempt. I had no idea what I had done to deserve such a reaction from him; he had just marked me, and one would have t

ELARIAN Blair led me over to one of the long benches in the park, where she stopped in front of a funny-looking man dressed in flashy clothes. He had all sorts of paintings on his face, along with some other men present or walking around the park.“Hey Blair, who do you have here?” he asked with a cheerful smile. He had dark hair and eyes that held such depth to them that you could find yourself staring into them for a long time.“Are you interested in joining the carnival?” He looked up at me with a twinkle in his eyes, and I raised a brow in response.“Carnival?”“Yeah…look around you; there’s a carnival going on at the moment.” He stopped talking and stared at me for a while. “Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you around here before. Are you by any chance new to the area?”“Yes, she is. I just found her over there,” Blair turned around to point at the spot where we had met, “and she seemed to be in need of a place to crash for a few days.”“Well…she’s in luck. I ne

ELARIAN Blair.That was definitely Blair, though her hair was no longer golden as it had been when I met her in the human world. The wolf who had taken me from the hospital that day had told me she had sold me out to the humans, and I knew it was because of the mark she had seen on my neck.But Blair had been human when I met her in the human world, so why was she here? And how had her hair become a deep shade of black?“Blair? How are you here?” I asked, and Aeros stepped forward.“I told you she suddenly turned up after we lost a prisoner with Jonathan. I have no idea how it happened either, but it just happened,” he explained as my eyes darted from him to Blair.I wasn’t sure he had any clue what he was talking about.“Is this your Blair?” I asked, raising a brow, my face stunned. I could have sworn she was the woman I had met when I first arrived in the human world, so how could she be his Blair?“I thought she was dead too, but when she showed up… the whole thing just became a t

ELARIAN “A lot has happened in your absence, Luna Elarian.” The healer’s words echoed in the back of my mind, and the sadness in her eyes as she said them lingered in my thoughts.“You have to stay in bed. Both you and the baby need as much rest as possible. Plus, Alpha Aeros clearly instructed that we keep you here until he returns,” Elyse’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts and made me aware of my surroundings.“But you just said Jonathan has been… I need to go to him,” I said as I tried to push myself up from the bed. A sharp pain shot through my head, making me scream out loud and collapse back.“Your body is still too weak. It will take time to regain your strength,” Elyse pointed out, stepping forward. “I know you want to be with your husband right now, but for the sake of your baby, Luna Elarian, you need to stay right here,” she added firmly.I sighed heavily and eased back into the bed in defeat. Elyse and the healer excused themselves to check on Aeros after a maid rushed

ELARIAN“Thank the goddess, Elarian. You have no idea how worried I was. You have no idea how scared I was. I thought I had lost you, and when the healer said you were…” His words trailed off as if there was something on the tip of his tongue he couldn’t bring himself to say.“Alpha Aeros, we agreed to let her get enough rest. And please, get something for her to eat. It must have been one hell of an ordeal,” the woman I hadn’t noticed was in the room said. I turned to see a much younger woman standing beside the healer, hovering over me.“Of course,” Aeros mumbled grudgingly as he reluctantly pulled himself away from me and headed outside. For some reason, I was extremely weak, too weak to even speak or move, and the young woman beside me noticed that. She leaned forward and urged me to relax into the bed.“You must be really weak. Please just stay back and wait for him. Within a few hours, you should feel much better,” she said calmly. I stared at her for a few seconds before glanci

ELARIAN “Give me back my baby!” I yelled at the top of my lungs as I crumbled to the floor, tears streaming down my cheeks and leaving me almost out of breath. Blood stains covered my dress, my hair was a tangled mess, my knees were bleeding from all the kneeling, and my feet were sore all over.This was torture. I had been like this for hours, and the pain shot through my body like I had been pricked by a million knives.I had no idea where I was or what was happening, but I was certain it wasn’t reality because one minute, I had a baby, and the next, I was walking around pregnant and bleeding. I was forced to endure a miscarriage, then labor, and finally, the ordeal of watching my child get ripped apart by a blind wolf.Something didn’t feel right. Aeros’ scent hung thicker than ever around me, but he was nowhere near close to me. I tried to wake myself up, hoping that it was all just a nightmare, but no matter how hard I tried, nothing worked.“Please…” I sobbed, “just give me bac

AUTHOR'S POVKaiden swam for what felt like hours on end before he washed up on the banks of a river in an unfamiliar territory. He assumed it was because he had been locked away for so long that he couldn’t recognize anything or anywhere. However, he also knew that Jonathan and Aeros would start sending out search parties if they didn’t find his body, so he needed to find a safe place to hide for a while.Blair. He had seen Blair, and her name kept echoing in his head as he walked away, but he paid no attention to it. He got as far away as he could, and it wasn’t until he saw someone that he finally collapsed from the cold, darkness engulfing him.Meanwhile, Blair was unsure of what to do. Aeros had managed to catch the maid she had used, and even though she was scary enough to keep the maid’s mouth sealed, she knew it was only a matter of time before Aeros found a way to make her confess.She couldn’t risk that, nor could she risk him waking Elarian up.“The new healer just arrived,

AEROS “I…I am sorry, I didn’t mean to…I uhm…” I stammered, unsure of what to say or how to react to the sudden image of Blair crying profusely in front of me.“Everything, every single thing I did was for you, Aeros. But if you choose to be blind to all that because of a woman you barely even know, then…then maybe, just maybe Jonathan was worth it. Maybe he was worth being the man that made me cheat on you. Maybe he was worth the—”“Blair!”“What?! Am I disturbing her? Is that what you’re going to say to me next? What if she doesn’t come back, Aeros? Have you ever thought of that? What if she doesn’t wake up and you’re trapped out here with nowhere else to turn? She is going to leave you eventually, and then you will realize that it has always just been me,” she said, her eyes holding mine.“Blair, you and I, we’re done. Elarian means a whole lot to—”“No, Aeros,” she replied sharply, cutting me off. “You don’t get to decide who matters and who doesn’t. I am the woman you will foreve

AEROS My throat ached with each word that made it past my lips. I didn’t want to believe that he would do something like that, yet at the same time, if he really did it to her, then I couldn’t just let him walk free.He almost killed my child and Elarian.“I don’t know why he did that,” I continued and paused to catch my breath because it was getting even more difficult for me to speak. The words were just too heavy for me to say to her, but I had no choice.“The maid insisted he was the one till the last minute, and no matter how unbelievable it sounds, it looks like it just might be true. Maybe Xavier was right, Elarian. Maybe you were safer with him and not with me. Blair died with me, and if anything were to happen to you, then I would…I would…” The words trailed off as a sharp pain shot through me, leaving me gasping for air.“Aeros.” Blair’s voice called out behind me, and I turned around sharply to find her standing by the door. I had no idea when she had walked in.I still fo

ELARIAN The sound of a baby crying was the first thing that filled my ears as I jumped up from where I lay. The air was thick with a scent that made my nose twitch, and when my eyes finally adjusted to the pitch-black darkness around me, I noticed the baby at the foot of the bed I was lying on.I touched my stomach, and the baby bump that had been there was suddenly gone. My brows furrowed; I had no idea I had given birth, nor did I recall the ordeal of childbirth.How was the baby here then?The baby suddenly stopped crying, and when I tried to move closer, I noticed my legs wouldn’t budge from where they were placed on the bed. I tried to lift them over and over again, but it was as if they were glued to it.Suddenly, the door opened, and a shadow slipped in. I looked on in horror as the shadow slowly morphed into what I assumed was a young woman, and she approached the baby slowly.I willed myself to speak, but my lips wouldn’t move either. This had to be a nightmare because I bar

Author’s POVJonathan wasn’t sure if he understood what Blair was saying. How could it be possible that she had been pregnant during that incident between them?He had expected her to say a lot of things, but never in his lifetime would he have imagined this. And he certainly didn’t expect Aeros to walk in on their conversation.Jonathan had only wanted to clear the air with Blair because he was afraid she might say something to Aeros first. So, he had pretended he was going to check on her and headed to her room. The guard stationed outside stepped aside the moment he saw him. When Blair insisted they go somewhere more private to talk, claiming she was worried someone might overhear them. Jonathan led her to the only place he was sure no one would visit.Little did he know that Aeros was just around the corner.“W-What did you just say?” Aeros stammered, taking a step forward. His eyes locked onto Jonathan’s but flicked occasionally to Blair, who stood beside him, her wide eyes betra
