Aubrey’s POV

“I’m not entirely sure that it would be best for you to accompany me, so I’ll advise you to stay back,” I said, slightly hesitating.

“Is there a problem, Aubrey?” Hayden asked.

"I don't know, Hayden. I don't think you'll be comfortable being amongst werewolves," I answered, relaying my fears to him.

“I came here despite knowing what you are and what the rest of your people are as well, I’m not going to back down now,” Hayden said, his eyes locked on mine.

“Are you sure about your decision, Hayden? Aiden and Damon don’t like you and they’ve not attempted to hide how they feel about you either.” I explained, trying to change his mind.

"I want to come with you and you’re not stopping me from doing this, Aubrey,” Hayden said, his mind was made up.

"You don't have to do this," I protested. “I don’t want any harm to come to you.”

"I came here because I wanted to protect you, Aubrey. That’s what I’m going to do and I won't let you go in there alone," Hayden insisted.

    Aubrey’s POV“I still don’t know why I’m here and what any of this has to do with me or my family, Aiden,” I said, rather confused. I was the last person they ought to be sharing this information with because I had no clue how to help them cure this plague. All I wanted was to go back home with my family and never return here. “The truth is that the Moon Goddess didn’t give us an answer like Aiden had told you but she gave us something else — a prophecy,” Damon said this time around. My curiosity piqued and I leaned in slightly. "What kind of prophecy and what does this prophecy have to do with me?” I asked, turning my attention towards him. Aiden and Damon glanced at each other before turning to look at me. I had no idea what the hell was going on and then all of a sudden, like an epiphany, it hit me that there was something else going on. Something major that they were reluctant to share with me. Aiden's expression turned grave. "Aubrey, we need to talk to you about something a

    Aiden POVMy face contorted with anger as I stormed into the kitchen, pushing everyone standing in my way aside as I made my way to the middle of the room. “I’m going to ask this once and I need a credible answer, who the fuck brought pineapple juice to Aubrey’s room?” I thundered, my voice loud enough for everyone within twenty feet to hear as it echoed off the wall. “N-no one could have done that here, Alpha Aiden. We were strictly warned not to serve pineapple juice to her.” One of them eventually mustered the courage to speak. “Then someone needs to explain how it got into her room,” I said, my rage intensifying.“Someone couldn’t have walked in here and placed it on the tray that was being sent to her room, could they? Or are you trying to tell me that everything in here is being compromised?” The maids exchanged fearful glances. “We swear on our lives, we don’t know how it got into her room and we didn’t serve it to her either.” I felt something inside of me snap. “You’re a

    Aubrey’s POVA cacophony of words with different tones filled the air as my eyes slowly fluttered open. Hayden was sitting next to me and clutching my hand to his lips, while Aiden and Damon hovered above him, their faces were filled with a mixture of concern and relief. I tried to sit up but I felt a sharp pain in my ribs and I slowly eased myself back on the bed. “Hey, you’re finally awake,” Hayden said, his eyes glistening with joy as he kissed my hand. “How are you feeling right now?” My throat felt dry as I opened my mouth to speak but I was pretty determined despite being weak. “I—I guess I’m okay. I’m tired but I’ll survive. What happened?” Damon's expression turned grim. "You were poisoned, Aubrey. But we found out who was responsible, and they've been dealt with."Hayden’s grip on my hand got tighter. “They claimed not to have anything to do with the incident but I don’t believe them. They’ve got to know why the culprit carried out this dastardly act but they’ve refused to

    Aiden’s POVI heard the commotion happening outside and I was curious to know what was happening. I glanced at the digital clock on the bed stand, I was just past midnight. Everyone was meant to be in bed already. I made my way outside my room to find Damon walking towards the stairs and I wondered if everyone in the house had woken up due to the noise. Damon and I made our way to the ground floor and into one of the rooms large enough to hold a large number of people. “What’s going on?” I asked as everyone parted for Damon and me to walk to the front. There was a man in chains with blood running down his face. “We found an intruder near the oak tree a couple of minutes ago,” A guard began. “I asked him a few questions and he froze, immediately I called for backup and we brought him here.” “Has any one of you seen this man before?” I asked, addressing the whole group. “No,” The group chorus and I nodded, taking in their response. I wondered if he had anything to do with Mrs. N

    Aubrey’s POVI felt my world spin as my vision blurred. My head was pounding and I had no other option but to sit down before I blacked out. I let out a sigh as I rubbed my temple, trying to massage the pain but it only intensified to a larger degree.My head started spinning once more and I couldn’t shake off this foreboding feeling that something bad was about to happen but I couldn’t figure out what it was. All I could see was danger ahead of them - dark shadows looming, threatening to consume everything in their path. I tried to focus, to pinpoint the source of the danger, but it seemed to be coming from all directions.I racked my head trying to figure out where this danger could be coming from and why it was onto us but I came up blank. There were questions in my mind but there were no answers for them. I forced myself up to my feet, I knew that I had to warn Aiden and Damon about what was coming for us. They had to be prepared for what was coming after us. Even though I didn

    Aubrey’s POVThe next day, Aiden took me to a warehouse a few blocks from the mansion. It was pretty secluded, and the security around the area was tight. “What are we doing here, Aiden?” I asked, unsure about what was going on. “Seeing as we’re running out of time, I’ve decided to set up a laboratory for you to work on a cure to heal the pack from this plague, as the Moon Goddess had prophesied a while ago. There’s no one else who can do this, you’re our only shot at survival.” Aiden explained. “You’re dropping it all on me without hesitation,” I chuckled, rubbing the back of my neck. “I don’t mean to pressure you, Aubrey. But people fall sick every day, and we must do something quickly. You’ll be in charge of creating whatever remedies you come up with, and whatever you need for it to make it work, we’ll provide it for you.” Damon said. I nodded, suddenly optimistic, but my uncertainty lurked around the corner. “I’ll try my best. But what about Hayden and the children? Someone n

    Aubrey’s POVAs I worked on the samples scattered on the table that I had developed over time, my eyes were heavy, and I desperately needed to catch some sleep. I had been working tirelessly around the clock for several days now. My assistants found it hard to keep up with me, and I couldn’t blame them. I barely had time to eat or sleep; all I did was work. And oftentimes, I couldn’t help but wonder why I was putting myself through this for people who hated my very existence. The pack never liked me, and when everything happened, no one took my side because they saw me as a weak Omega wolf. And yet, the Moon Goddess had played a cruel joke on me. I felt my anger rising as I gripped the pen in my head. I owed them nothing, so why should I help them get better? I glanced around the laboratory and remembered the bodies of the dead children I had seen earlier, and I knew that I couldn’t stop. I had to do this for the innocent lives; I couldn’t let them suffer. So I kept working even w

    Aubrey’s POVI couldn’t tell what was real and what wasn’t as my mind traveled through a mist, making it difficult to see my own hands. Suddenly, a figure emerged and stood a few feet away from me. I couldn’t make out the face as it was covered with a hoodie, but from how the figure moved, it clearly had bad intentions, aimed to cause damage, and wasn’t hidden. I squinted at the figure, trying to make out the face, but my vision blurred. It felt like my head had been spinning, making it difficult to focus. I felt a sense of relief or fear run down my spine as the figure vanished before it could reach me. I tried to shake it off, to tell myself that what I saw wasn’t real and was all a dream, but the image remained in my head. I started to slip away again, and that was when I felt the large hand on my shoulder force me to open my eyes. I bolted up from the chair, my heart jackknifing against my chest, but I calmed down when I saw Damon hovering over me. “Did something happen?” Damo

    Aubrey’s POVI stay silent after Ellie’s actions not wanting to get into a fight with her or anyone else for that matter. I’d done a lot of that and all I wanted right now was to be with my family and spend the night with them after being away for a while. “I’ll take it that you’re drunk and you have no control over your emotions right now,” I said, wiping my face as I stared at her. “Fuck you, bitch. How dare you—“ “You need to stop, Ellie. I’m not your enemy and I’ve never been. If you say Aiden is slowly drifting away from you then you ought to check yourself and figure out what the problem is because you can’t say I’m unworthy of being put in the same sentence with you and then turn around to say I’m taking your husband away from you.

    Aubrey’s POVI frankly didn’t know what to make of it after the old man introduced himself with a frightened smile, his words were mumbled so it was difficult to make out what his name was. I thought about engaging him in a small conversation but I decided not to. There were a lot of things going on in my life right now and I didn’t want to add any extra luggage on top of the whole mess. Whatever was going on with him, I could always take care of it later. Hayden had left immediately after the man left and I was all alone which meant it was the perfect time to see my sons and catch up on old times. Most importantly, I needed to run tests on them, especially Lucien. I had to know if the vaccine had failed or if it still kept its effectiveness like the results said it would. I made my way past the living room and I was visibly surprised to see Ellie sitting next to the kitchen counter, her arms crossed on her chest, a bottle of red wine and a glass cup sat next to it. She was an ea

    Aubrey’s POVI groaned as I opened my eyes slowly. The walls around me were white and there was a distinctive smell in the air that told me I was in a hospital and suddenly, the memories came rushing back. I remembered seeing Damon ripping a man’s head off his shoulders in one clean swoop and I remember the way I screamed while passing out. It kind of felt embarrassing remembering the whole thing now but seeing as I’d been in a rather critical situation, it had been bound to happen. The room was empty but I noticed that there were plates of food kept at my bedside and the couches in the room looked like they’d been slept on. They've all been worried about me when I passed out and if they brought me to the hospital, it meant that it’d have been something critical that needed the best treatment. I hadn’t seen my kids in a while and I knew they’d be worried about my whereabouts. They were extremely sensitive and if anything, they’d know I’d been in grave danger. I tried to push mysel

    Mark’s POV“Utter woke nonsense! I will not support this foolishness and I want to warn all of you here to desist from raising this issue with our Alpha!” I slammed my fist on the table, making the men sitting around it flinch.They were making no sense with this idea of theirs and I wasn’t going to let it stand. I’d been quite silent on pack matters because I’d been busy with several things but after clearing my schedule to be present here today, everything felt foreign, much to my disgust.“You’re overreacting, Mark. There’s nothing foolish about this decision and you know it.” Elder John said, wagging his finger in my face. “Humor me, John. Tell me why you think this decision that you’ve all decided to go with isn’t a stupid one. I’ll wait for you to give me one credible reason.” I said, leaning into my chair and waiting for him to speak. “The only reason you’re against this idea is because of the rift your daughter has with the person in question.

    Aiden’s POVI may not like Hayden but at that point, we needed every available wolf or man, in his case. I shared a nod with Damon and he backed down from being aggressive with Hayden. “You’ll listen to me at all times. Do not do anything without my permission, do you understand me, Hayden?” I asked. “Yes,” Hayden nodded. That was all I needed as we all hurried out of the room and rushed downstairs. “Is everyone ready to leave?” I asked Damon as I made my way into the car, held open by one of the guards. “Yes, our best fighters are ready and waiting for your command, Aiden,” Damon answered as he joined me in the car. Hayden decided to join a couple of my wolves at the back of the truck and I urged them to keep an eye on him. I hit the roof of the car twice and the engine roared to life, the driver stepped on the accelerator and the car raced out of the parking lot. My fears hadn’t toned down yet but for the first time, I was optimistic about finding Aubrey and bringing her ho

    Aiden’s POVIt had been confirmed. Aubrey was officially declared missing and the news threw the pack into disarray as everyone wondered who could be behind this kidnapping.I’d been asking questions on how this could’ve happened and I finally had a lead. I sat behind the screen, waiting for the suspect as he walked across the street without any care in the world. I wondered how he had gotten past the security at the front door. Sam's Kitchen was one of the best food restaurants in the pack and it was exclusively for the rich and successful. A meal here cost more than what some people earned in a month and I had dinner here anytime I needed to put in a night shift at the office. From my observation, men like him weren't welcomed here, it was bad for business. And knowing how strict the employees were, there was no way he would have gotten past the security guards. Except, if he had gotten in through the back door.Someone had tipped him off about where I would be. There was no need t
