ELARIAN

I kept running deep into the woods with no idea where I was headed. I didn’t stop to breathe, nor did I stop to pull the thorns poking at me through the holes in my dress because I was desperate to get away from them.

I overheard one of the men talking about using me to get to Aeros, which didn’t make sense because they had claimed to have saved me on his orders. That was when I realized they weren’t on my side and decided to escape.

Security wasn’t tight, and the house was too old and rickety to hold someone hostage without proper surveillance, so I easily slipped past the guards and made a run for it.

I didn’t know how long I had been running, but it was beginning to get dark. My legs ached, and my entire body felt like it had been run over by a truck. I wished for nothing more than to crawl up somewhere and sleep, so I finally stopped to catch my breath. After making sure no one was after me, I cleared a spot under a tree and sat down.

I questioned myself: Was it really a

    ELARIAN Was I ready to do this? I asked myself that question over and over again as I paced the length of the hallway, occasionally stopping in front of the room where Vienna was. She was in there with the woman who assured me she could help me get rid of the pregnancy without complications.My heart pounded so fast it felt like it might rip out of my chest at any moment.Suddenly, the door creaked open, and Vienna poked her head out, "Come on in, she’s ready for you now."She held the door wide open, and I walked in, struggling to keep myself together. When I heard her turn the lock behind me, I spun around sharply."Just for privacy," she reassured me, noticing the concerned and petrified look on my face.An unexpectedly young woman sat on a couch-like bed at the far end of the room. On the small table beside her were six tablets and a sparkling glass of water."The pills should be enough to get the job done, but if the father is an Alpha, you might need more than a few pills to ge

    AEROS Three Months Later,Three whole months had passed, and I still had not found her. I had searched every single pack in the neighboring areas and beyond, and there was no sign of her. It was as if she had disappeared into the wind, leaving no traces behind.The rogues had not been able to find her after she escaped from them, and even after I threatened to kill them—after brutally torturing their leader for a month—they still could not provide anything about her whereabouts. In the end, I had to let them go.“This is your fifth bottle this morning. Come on, Aeros, get yourself together,” Jonathan snapped as he grabbed the bottle and yanked it away from me forcefully, just before I could take another swig.“What’s wrong with you? You can’t keep living like this, Aeros. You can’t find her with your head in a bottle. You need to get yourself together and attend to what needs to be done,” he added.I scoffed at his words and burst out laughing in an odd manner.“Haven’t we tried? Thr

    AEROS The soft beeping sound of a machine behind me forced me to stir awake as my eyelids fluttered open slowly. My vision was blurry, and my hearing was muffled, as if I were underwater, but I could still catch the voices in the background.“I told him not to drive. I warned him, but he didn’t listen. What if I hadn’t followed behind him directly? What would have happened?” a familiar voice said.“Thank the goddess you were there. He really needs to get over that girl. If he wasn’t so hung up on her, he wouldn’t be drinking in the first place,” another familiar voice added.Silence ensued for the next few seconds until one of them spoke up again.“I’ve been thinking... do you think we should cut off the investigation and find a way to make her look dead to him?” the second voice continued.“I’ve thought of that too, but I can’t come up with anything that will sound believable to him, not after what happened the other time,” came the first voice.“Don’t worry, I have a plan. Anyways,

    ELARIAN “What do you mean she didn’t come back last night?” I asked Gabby, Vienna’s mother, in surprise as soon as she broke the news to me that she hadn’t seen Vienna since she went out to pick herbs yesterday.Slowly, I eased myself onto the couch. My stomach was now protruding more with each passing day, and it was gradually becoming so uncomfortable for me. But Gabby and Vienna were doing everything they possibly could to make me comfortable.They were the literal angels the Moon Goddess sent to save me from my misery. Three months ago, I thought all was lost until they stumbled upon me and brought me here, to this pack, the Blood Moon Pack, a place I now considered my home.“Does Alpha Xavier know about this?” I questioned her further, wrapping my hands around my stomach protectively while gently caressing it.“I’m sure she’s fine and will return soon. She’s probably with one of those omega wolves she plays around with. She does that all the time.”“Plus, Alpha Xavier sent a gua

    ELARIAN “There’s something I need to tell you,” I said to Gabby as we made our way up the flight of stairs that led into Alpha Xavier’s mansion.She was obviously paranoid about her daughter’s whereabouts and eager to get to the Alpha, practically flying up the stairs, far ahead of me at this point.“What is it?” She didn’t turn around, nor did she stop.“It’s about the baby’s father and the man whose name you hear me call out at night.” We were now at the top of the stairs, and I was heaving heavily, coming to a halt in front of one of the large pillars to catch my breath.It was still a mystery to me why they had built so many stairs, and everyone was subjected to the ordeal of climbing them every single time they visited the Alpha. But Vienna said it was good for me, so she made me do this once every week.My back hurt, and my legs ached, but not as badly as the first time she brought me here. I was now a little more used to it, along with the pain that followed.“Do we really hav

    AEROS "Vienna, my pack does not take kindly to thieves. We do not appreciate you coming into our private garden and taking what is not yours," I began softly, not wanting to scare her into retreating into her shell.“I did not steal those herbs,” she snapped back.I was taken aback by how confident and bold she sounded. I had expected her to be a timid and easily scared woman, but she seemed far from that.“Those were general herbs, and if you had any knowledge of them, you’d know they are not supposed to be hoarded in a private garden. They should be shared with the rest of the world,” she added.“Shut your mouth,” a guard growled, shoving her forward roughly. She turned and shot him a glare. Irritated by her defiance, the guard raised his hand to strike her, but Jonathan grabbed his arm and pulled him aside.My lips curved into a thin smile. I was sincerely amused by how she spoke back without fear of the consequences. She sounded nothing like the timid woman I had initially expect

    ELARIAN “Why do I feel like Alpha Xavier is mad at me?” I asked Gabby as I paced the length of the waiting room. We were still in the pack house, waiting for Alpha Xavier, who had left the mansion a while ago to bring Vienna back.Gabby didn’t want to dwell on it too much due to her health, so she kept herself occupied with knitting by the window overlooking the large gates, hoping to be the first to see when the Alpha returned.“He’s just upset, that’s all,” she replied without looking up from her task. “You’re carrying the child of an Alpha. That changes everything, Elarian. This could lead to war, especially when that Alpha is someone of high status. You, of all people, should know the consequences of what you’ve done.”“I know… I know… but Aeros has no idea about the pregnancy. He doesn’t even know I’m here, so I don’t see why we should panic. You said so yourself,” I said as I stopped pacing and walked over to her, desperate for reassurance.“That makes it even worse, Elarian. A

    AEROS“A car just pulled out of his house a few minutes ago,” Jonathan announced as he walked into my study, still holding a phone to his ear.He was clearly talking to our man stationed at Xavier’s house. I had kept a close eye on Xavier ever since the incident with Blair, using this spy because I became suspicious of him when I lost her. Over time, I had tried to let go, realizing I was just paranoid when I lost her. Xavier had no real reason to want the woman he loved dead.“Who left the house?” I asked, looking up from the report I had been reviewing.I had asked one of the guards to gather any information they could find on Vienna, the young woman currently in my dungeon, hoping to find some sort of connection. But there was nothing. She lived with her mother, who was a healer in Xavier’s pack. Nothing about her stood out, and the more I looked at her details, the more it dawned on me that Xavier could be right.Maybe I was grasping at straws. Maybe Elarian wasn’t there. But the

    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
