Finding a place to stay was the most challenging part of everything Roman and Aidan had to do. What was left of their belongings was still at Grace Villa and they were debating whether or not they should go back to get it or not. But this argument started after they found an abandoned house to stay in. " I don't think we should go there. I know our stuff is there but it's not safe, those wolves are probably still hunting us down" Aidan said after they had placed Elora on the bed inside the only room available in the house. Gina sat on the floor still holding her head because turning involuntarily like that was quite painful." Yeah but you can hide our scent, can't you? You can mask it so that they never see it" Roman responded." So what? These wolves are intelligent creatures and they are now even worse that they have gone wild. Even if they don't perceive our scent, they can see you and they'll know for sure that you should be attacked." Aidan pointed out. " Okay...how about you
At the moment being cornered by all these people, Roman didn't know if he should be fighting them because they just lost their families. Instead, he chose to defend himself. He wasn't a mind reader so there was no way to tell what Aidan was thinking but he was certain Aidan was thinking the same thing. Just at that moment Aidan cast a barrier spell and the people bumped into the round ball of green energy that shielded them and after futile attempts to break the barrier, they stopped and one of them Albert who seemed to be the spokesperson decided to ask, " Why did you come here? A place known as a safe haven for good reason! We've lived here for years without any problems but the day you guys come here, everything falls apart!" " We didn't expect this, we are truly sorry for your loss"" What? You're sorry? Where were you when these wolves ate women and children whole?!" A woman said." That's..."" Yeah, they were busy saving their asses while we were being destroyed!" " Please..
KlauAfter Roman had devised a plan and set it out before everyone. They all agreed that it was fifty percent going to work and that it was better than hiding from his father. Roman gave themselves three days to rest ahead for the journey back to Blue Moon and when he still didn't hear any news from Kelly and the rest, the three days became two and a half. " Alright, guys let's go. There's no news from Kelly and Nora. Let's just go now before something worse happens" he said, surprising Elora, Gina, and Aidan who were chatting. When he read the room, he realized that he probably just destroyed a light-hearted moment and so he just stood there awkwardly and watched them. " Come on Roman, join us for a bit before we go on this not-so-suicide mission," Aidan said smiling at Roman in the most heartwarming way he had ever seen. He didn't even know Aidan could smile like that." Umm...what are you guys doing. Really?" He asked as he reluctantly strutted and sat close to Elora. " We were
Roman cleared his throat as he seemed to be the next to speak, Gina already talked about how she felt when she first met Elora, and that was also her best memory of Elora. So, he turned to Aidan because Aidan was the most complicated person with whom he shared a relationship at the moment. He thought it necessary to address Aidan first so he did. " Aidan..." He started, surprising everyone else because no one expected him to say anything about Aidan - at least no one expected him to address Aidan first. " Hm-hmm?" Aidan said trying not to seem too dumbfounded. " I don't know what I can call our relationship dynamic but I'm pretty sure it's not a bad one. As for my best memory of you..." Roman said and then paused as he tried to think of it. " It's okay if you don't have any" Aidan said to make things easier but Roman shook his head. " No. I have a few..." Roman said with a wry smile as he said, " I think my favorite memory of you is everything you're doing with me and Elora right
" Elora!" Gina yelled at the top of her voice." I asked you a question. Did you know about what Drew did to me?" Gina asked again, this time tears were gathering in her eyes as he looked at her best friend and hoped with all of her heart that Elora has not been feigning ignorance about what Drew did. But still, Elora could not respond... She had already said no and then yes but that was not a clear answer. She knew Gina would need confirmation and she wasn't sure what she should say. If she says she knew, everyone knows how that would turn out but if she says she did not know...that would be her lying to Gina and she did not believe that Gina deserved that. While Elora was doing all these mental Olympics, Gina was losing every fiber of control in her and it was hanging by a thread when Elora finally said, " I knew" Elora's answer shocked her but she also kept her calm for a brief moment. She was so anxious to hear Elora's answer and now that she heard it, she started to put two an
" I think she just turned into a baby wolf." Elora said after she placed the babies safely away and went to inspect Gina. Gina's wolf just curled itself up and wouldn't let anyone touch it. " What the fuck are we going to do now? Gina isn't a baby? What does this mean?" Roman lamented. " I have no fucking idea. What do we do because we already have three babies and I'm not here for a number 4" Aidan admitted while the rest of them sat down and watched Gina. " Can your magic do anything?" Elora asked. " I've been saying spells from my mind the whole time and nothing worked." Aidan said before he ran his hands through his hair. " I need some fresh air" Roman said as he left the house and soon after Aidan stood up to follow him." Where the hell are you going?" Elora asked when she saw Aidan leave. " Elora this thing is weird as hell, I need to clear my head as well."" You're her boyfriend you should stay with her" " What? Okay, I know that I should stay with her but the reason w
“ What?” Elora asked in utter shock, wondering why had changed so drastically and why Gina would even say she would leave.“ What do you mean by ‘ what?’ don’t you think I’m sick of you already? Don’t you think I’ve had enough of your bullshit friendship – don’t you think that finding out that my best friend has known about my trauma for months without trying to help me out is triggering enough for me to be done with you?” Gina said so quickly that it took Elora a minute to understand before she opened her mouth to talk but Gina interrupted saying, “ It’s okay, I know you’ll understand when I’m gone. Right now you don’t have the brain cells for it,”“ Whoa!!! What the hell Gina!” Roman exclaimed when he entered only to be flashed by Gina’s nakedness. Aidan had never seen her fully naked so he was quite shocked.“ What? I’m sure Elora has boobs and pussy too? So not a big deal right?” she said while Roman and Aidan stared at Elora in confusion because Gina was clearly acting different.
After Gina left with Aidan, Elora remained quiet the whole day. She did not say a word except when she and Roman had to feed the babies. Roman always helped her so she would not be too exhausted but he never tried to start any conversation with her because he knew she preferred to think in complete silence. The next morning, she woke up as early as 4 am due to the youngest child, Pandora crying frantically. Roman immediately woke up the second he heard his child crying and found Elora holding the baby in her arms to calm her as she stood on the balcony outside." The others don't cry as much as she does. " Elora whispered as the baby was now closing her eyes and sleeping. " Yeah" Roman whispered back as he rubbed her back because he knew she needed the support." It's okay Roman. I'm not exactly over Gina leaving but... We have to move forward. We have to do something really fast" she said as she looked Roman in the eyes. She wanted him to see just how serious she was. " Well...tha
Elora getting her powers back was most definitely the highlight of the night. She spent the night showing off her abilities to her daughters. Arina and Elena were initially overcome with embarrassment when they saw the way they chickened out when their mom was in danger while Pandora seemingly handled it well. After a while, they gave a half-hearted apology and sat in the living room – that is what was left of the room since most of their mother’s wolves had occupied it to be with Elora. “ I think that’s enough show for today,” Elora said after seeing that it was late. “ But mom, this is literally the coolest birthday ever and you’re ruining it by telling us to go to bed,” Elena protested. “ And I’m about to ruin it even more because I have some questions,” Elora said with a sinister smile. “ Umm…on second thought I think I’ll just go to bed. Goodnight mom,” Arina said with Elena getting up to follow her when Elora commanded, “ Sit!” This time it was different because their mom w
Later that night, Elora went to Pandora’s room and found her asleep. She was going to leave when Pandora begged her not to leave. “ I’m not sleeping anymore,” she said and Elora nodded before she went back to sit beside Pandora on the bed and asked her, “ What has happened? I know that you aren’t really happy so what is it?” “ Remember the boy I told you about?” Pandora asked as she sat up and fiddled with her fingers. “ Yeah?” Elora said. She had suspected earlier that her plans to help Pandora win the boy over had failed, hence why Pandora was upset.“ Well he turned seventeen and…” “ Wait he is one of those wolves who get their mates at Seventeen?” Elora asked raising her brow in surprise. “ Yeah and that’s weird because his older brother who is nineteen got his mates at nineteen,” Pandora said Digressing a little. “ Mates?” “ Yeah. Lucky him I guess,” “ That’s not something I want you to be envious of,” “ I know,” Pandora said bowing her head a lot more as her mother scold
( BACK TO PANDORA) At school, Mason had heard that it was Elena and Arina’s birthday. Some students had even gotten so obsessed with the two sisters that they made banners and customized T-shirts to celebrate the girl’s birthday but what he couldn’t understand was two things: one, why Pandora is always so ignored. Two, why Pandora is the only one who was mocked about her ‘ family’s failures? He wasn’t a fan of the lies being told about Roman Hills their father but he thought that if people were going to mock Pandora and call her father a mad beast then it should apply to the other girls too. He had just gotten out of his car that he got for his seventeenth birthday - which he forbade anyone of his friends from celebrating or mentioning when he saw the two sisters giggling and laughing at some of the students who kept telling them how pretty they were and how some guys and girls were embarrassing themselves just to impress them. At this point, the two sisters were more idolized than K
When Gina and Aidan got back after talking with Elora about how things have been since Roman's disappearance, they felt quite depressed about the matter. " She didn't deserve that you know..." Gina was the first to talk." It doesn't seem right at all. Everything seems so...orchestrated" Aidan said. " Do you think that maybe...just maybe... someone did this to her out of spite" " It has to be him... Drew"" Drew..."" Think about it. He must've felt humiliated when Roman succeeded in destroying his father. Alpha Drake was the one person Drew held on to for hope. Drew betrayed his own father to become Alphas Drew's second in command. But Roman kills him but instead of them killing Drew, they spare him and give him control of New Moon Pack. Drew must've felt insulted and humiliated. He probably would've preferred to die instead of being spared to suffer humiliation. He must've done this to Roman and Elora out of spite - it has to be him, especially since he and Romans' father has lots
Elora went to bed that night and like every other night, she dreamt of Roman. He was still trapped in his wolf form but he was begging her to wait for him and that he would come back to her. She always looked forward to her night's sleep because it gave her the opportunity to see Roman's face again but this night, it made her cry. She missed him so badly and felt like she couldn't live without him but she was so lonely and she had no one to turn to. Suddenly, this repeated dream started to feel like a nightmare. It started to feel like she was holding on to something that doesn't exist. She wanted nothing more to do with a dream that gives her false hope so she forced herself to wake up from the dream. When she did, she was breathing heavily and sweating profusely despite the fan in her room blowing at the highest speed. Suddenly, she felt a presence in her room and when she turned to the window, she saw blue and green eyes peering at her in human form. " Mom...what is it?" She hea
Pandora's POVMy sisters and I never went to school at the same time so it was no surprise to anyone when I entered the class one minute late while everyone else was already seated. Our class was painted mint green - a color I despised and the writings on the wall spelled the name of our school - Blue Moon Highschool Rhevys branch. Our mother didn't think it wise for us to study at New Moon like we always did when we were living with our grandmother. So we were fairly new students as we have only studied here for a year. This was one of the decisions our mother man that made my sisters angry with her. They believed New Moon was better because while we were there, we were treated way better than here. At New Moon High, a lot of the truth was told when it came to the battle between our father and his father. Not the fabricated and made-up stuff that the students and even the teachers digested here. We were kind of revered and it was because the Alpha, Alpha Drew liked us. I heard that
Elora opened the door and gasped at the people she saw standing outside her door. She never thought she would see them again but yet they were standing right in front of her. " Gina, Aidan? I...I'm so happy to see you two!" She said with a smile before she stepped aside so they could come in. Gina looked perfectly fine. It was as if she didn't age a day and Aidan had gotten so much bigger than she recalled. He looked very happy to be with Gina and seeing them holding hands like that made her a bit sad because she had no one to hold on to, it couldn't kill the joy she was currently feeling because she finally got to see them after almost fifteen years. " It's so good to see you too," Aidan said giving Elora a big hug. It was Gina who was acting a bit awkward even when Elora hugged her. " Hi" Gina managed to say with a nervous smile. " Oh my gosh, come on over to the sitting room and have a seat," Elora said smiling from ear to ear as she ushered them to the sitting room. " How hav
After Roman had his bath, Elora was in the sitting room with their children. Roman wanted to stay with her but he needed to find Josh and Caleb. He had to know if they survived or not. After all, it was he who sent them on a fool's errand. " Please El, let me put some things in order. After that I'm all yours for the rest of the day and the night" he said when she wouldn't let him go. " Please..." He begged after kissing her senseless and then she yielded. He left and was surprised to see that Cody was hosting a party. " Cody, this is no time for a party. My father still had allies that I need to put in their place. Until then, there will be no parties - though I appreciate the thought behind it" he said." That's a bummer. I thought we would be free to do whatever we wanted for a while" Tyler complained." Yeah... we'll party our asses off after order has been restored permanently," Roman said. " I'm off to Blue Moon Pack by the way. I'll see you guys later." He added and said hi
Elora remained indoors and didn't come out. She went straight to her children's crib and watched them wondering in her heart if she would be deemed a bad mother for not staying with them and fighting instead or if she would be called a coward for not helping her mate fight a necessary battle. What she knew for a fact was that if Roman dies she will hate herself. So she sat there and watched her children while thinking long and hard about the decision she had to make. As for Roman, immediately he left Elora and went back to find Cody and the others, he gathered them under the tree at the back of the building and said to them, " My father is coming. I'm sure you already know this but here is my request. I saved you all because I wanted to have people to lead when I eventually end my father's rule. I also wanted all of you to be a part of this fight but...there are children here who could get hurt and traumatized all over again." " What are you saying, Roman?" Cody asked. " I'm sayin
