The Luna's Second Chance 39. Breaking Point
Aurora's POV It was time, I could tell what he was about to say to me. I've been preparing for this day since I discovered the moon goddess has given me a second chance. A day to make an entirely different decision, a start of something new and a new turn of events. I looked up at him, my eyes locked on him like I was daring him to spill those words that had destroyed my life in the past. The words he said to me that had taken everything I loved away. I remembered the girl I used to be, full of life and laughter, with dreams and aspirations but those words had changed everything when I agreed to it. After I had Caleb, he became the only reason that kept me going until he was taken away from me too. Even though it was in my past life, the pain still felt like an open wound, raw and bleeding.I felt a surge of anger and hatred towards Kieran who was sitting in front of me. He was responsible for all my suffering, for taking away everything that mattered to me. I dared him to speak, t

Aurora's POV The cool morning air blew against my soft skin as I ran along the winding forest path, keeping my breathing steady and rhythmic as much as possible even though my energy felt used up. It had been too long since I run. With everything happening in Lunaris Dominion, I hadn’t had a moment to myself, let alone the chance to run like this. The trees whispered overhead, their leaves rustling softly in the breeze, and the earthy scent of pine and damp soil filled my lungs. I pushed myself harder, the sound of my sneakers pounding against the ground blending with the steady thump of my heart. I was lazy and out of shape from laying around doing nothing for weeks now. I reached a small clearing, I was breathless and flushed by the time I got there, but the tension I’d been carrying had eased just a little. I dropped to the soft grass and stretched out my legs, twisting the cap off my water bottle and taking long, slow gulps, the water spilling down my jaw in the process. Th

Darius's POV "Aurora, wait." The words slipped out before I could stop myself. She paused, her back still to me, and for a moment I wasn’t sure if she’d turn around at all. Slowly, she faced me, her eyes guarded but she wasn't looking at me straight in the eye, the way she normally held my gaze. It was as if she was trying to conceal her emotions. Was she embarrassed about the kiss?I didn't bring it up earlier because I thought she was under the influence of alcohol which she might have passed as a dream or hallucination. The morning sun casted a golden light on her face where she stood, and it took everything in me not to close the distance between us. She looked so beautifully fierce and so vulnerable at the same time, and it was driving me insane. I wanted her. Not just her touch or her kiss though. That kiss and those little opportunities to hold and touch her is successfully branded into my memory. I wanted to know her. To understand her. It was killing me that she woul

Darius's POV It was still early morning, the sun was still shining brightly in the sky as I strolled to the edge of a rock in the forest while I spoke to Ezra. “Meet me at the pack’s office,” I ordered. I understand his concern, yet I had to prioritize. The alliance meeting was set to start at 8p.m. The meeting was important and has been delayed for too long. However, the situation with Alpha Watson’s shipment couldn’t wait. It can't be postponed or shifted because there were lives at stake. The alliance meeting on the other hand can be delayed again, it will hurt no one to wait for a few hours.As I walked back to my office from the forest, Aurora kept coming across my mind, it took everything in me to stay rooted on the spot and not pull her into a warm embrace or continue what we couldn't finish the night at the hotel. I wanted to tell her she was my mate and see how she would react. “Mate won't reject us,” Magnus rumbled in the back of my head. “She definitely might.” I snapp

Aurora’s Pov I was brushing my hair when Aria came to my room without warning as usual, she's been doing that a lot lately since we had that talk the last time. She flopped onto my bed with a huff, grabbing the remote from my nightstand and waving it at me like a flag. “Movie night,” she declared. “Movie night?” I repeated, arching a brow at her. “Yes, I need something to distract me.” Aria announced. “Distract you from what?” I asked with curiosity. “I want to stay up and hear the outcome of the alliance meeting but the wait is killing me so I need a distraction.” She explained.I rolled my eyes and gave in. I was playing nice and acting like the usual me towards her. I needed to be cool while I struck her unaware.“Fine. Pick something good, or I’m kicking you out.” I scoffed. She settled on a romcom. I tried to relax as the movie played, but my mind was still so restless. I kept thinking about the upcoming alliance, about Kieran, Alpha Alaric, and my revenge. And Darius.

Aurora's POVThe soft hum of the machines filled the room. Everywhere smelled of antiseptic and blood. Despite Harper and me cleaning for the last hour, the metallic tang still lingered in the air. It was dawn, and the exhaustion was starting to tell on my body. Yet I sat still by his side.Alpha Darius lay still on the bed we’d moved him to. He was pale but stable. The steady beeping of the heart monitor filled the room, his vitals were now in a safer range. Though, he hasn’t woken up since. Ezra had been pacing non-stop for a while now, his phone going off every few minutes. Every time it did, his face grew darker, his frustration getting more obvious. He let out a frustrated breath, rubbing his face with both hands. “Why isn’t he waking up yet? It's already dawn.” I sighed, rolling my stiff shoulders before answering. “Be patient, Ezra. He’s been through a lot. The silver was poisoning his blood, and his body needs time to recover. His vitals are strong, which means he’s stab

Aurora's POV I watched Darius’s fingers twitch again. Suddenly, he lifted his hands towards his chests. I quickly reached out, grasping his wrists to prevent him from removing the electrodes attached to his chest.As I held his wrists, his eyelids began to flutter, gently I put his hands down, back to his sides, “Darius?” I whispered, leaning forward, I squeezed his hand gently. His eyelashes fluttered, his breathing shifting slightly. “Can you hear me?” I asked.His eyes opened, they were unfocused at first, dazed and cloudy. A weak smile tugged at the corner of his lips. “Hey Muffin,” he murmured. My brows shot up. “What?” I aske., surprised he knew it was me.His eyes slipped closed again for a second, and I feared he was slipping back into unconsciousness. After a while, he took a slow breath and opened them again. “Thank you, Muffin,” he whispered. “I knew I could trust you.”“You’re welcome. But you shouldn’t be talking yet. You need to rest.” I said. He ignored me, t

Aurora’s Pov The room went extremely quiet after Darius’s question, the kind of quiet that presses down on you, waiting for an answer you don’t know how to give. He's putting me in a tight corner. The type that no matter what answer you give, it's going to be wrong. The type that will inevitably lead to more questions, more scrutiny, and more tension.“Do you love Kieran?” He asked again, his voice was soft, and the weight of the words hung between us like a storm waiting to break.His gaze upon me was boring into my skin like a slow burning fire. His eyes seemed to hold a deep intensity with desperation that made my chest tighten.I knew I had to respond, to say something, anything, to break the suffocating silence. However, the words were stuck in my throat, and I was trapped between the uncertainty of lying or telling the truth. I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly dry. “Why are you asking me this?” I finally whispered, my voice barely steady. Darius held my gaze, his eyes sear

The Luna's Second Chance 90. Awakened
Aurora’s Pov Mason dropped me off inftont of the hospital, it didn’t take long, Rachel appeared with her car to pick me. I needed somewhere to gather my thoughts and a friend to talk to which was why I had texted her to come. While she drove me to her pack, she didn't question me, Rachel could tell I needed the space and time to regather my thought. The moment I stepped foot into her room, I jumped onto the bed and I felt a calmness settle in my chest. She immediately served me a cold soda drink that sent chilly thrills down my stomach and afterwards I took a nap.A few hours later, I was awake, we sat cross-legged on her bed, a warm mug of tea in each of our hands, and I finally began to narrate everything that happened yesterday to today.The dinner, the appeal to spend the weekend with him, Magnus sudden appearance on my bed then the kiss, the sex and the shocking mate claim. My wolf, Terra, speaking to me for the first time. The conversation about reincarnated mates. The rejecti
The Luna's Second Chance 89. The Wolf Within
Aurora’s Pov When I heard the voice, I thought it was Darius calling me or he probably was outside at my doorstep but the voice sounded so unfamiliar, like it was mine and at the same time different. Then it came again, soft, and more distinct this time with a little force that seems powerful. It wasn’t echoing from the hallway or the room next door. It was then I realized it was from my mind.I froze mid-step, halfway into yanking my top over my head.“Aurora.”My hand trembled as I put on my shorts. I needed to get out of here but first what could it be? Was I going crazy and hearing voices just because I'd been hit with another betrayal?“What the hell…” I whispered, glancing around the room. “Aurora, listen.” I heard clearer.“Who said that?” I asked, shaking my head.“I did. Don’t be afraid.”My breath caught. My heart thundered in my chest. “Where are you?”“I’m here. Inside you. I always have been.”I shook my head, confused, my eyes darting around the room as if I’d somehow
The Luna's Second Chance Unleashed
Aurora’s Pov This was what I craved. What I needed. A reprieve from the anger and heartache, a chance to simply feel alive. My nipples were tight peaks beneath my top, sensitive and wanting for his touch. Darius’s lips were hot and firm against mine. He pulled me closer as his tongue teased mine. I moaned, my hands going through his hair as he deepened the kiss. It was like I’d been holding back for years, and it was finally time to let go. We were kissing each other like we were running out of time.I was panting from the intensity of everything. My skin was tingling, warm, flushed, and trembling. His breath ragged against my cheek, his scent suddenly wrapped around me. It was wild, beautiful and everything I hadn’t expected.His hands trembled when they touched me, like he couldn’t believe this was happening and honestly, neither could I.“Fuck, Aurora…” Darius breathed against my lips, breaking the kiss for only a second. “We need to stop.”“I could smell your arousal and I’m on
The Luna's Second Chance 87. Intentions
Aurora's POV Watching as he turned to leave the kitchen, he walked with nonchalant grace, his movements were swift, full of grace and virility. I had to fight the urge not to study his body when he pushed me against the kitchen counter earlier. When he left the room earlier, I noticed his shorts were tattered from shifting and I could tell it had skipped his mind. The good thing was that it wasn’t totally shredded or hanging by the threads. I would have gotten myself a good show of what was down there. I wouldn't say I wasn't curious to know.I couldn't study his body in the room since he was under the sheet but seeing him in the kitchen brought the mischievous side of me till he killed the vibe when he answered me with a serious tone that maybe he was in love with me. Sighing, I looked down at the plate of food untouched in front of me. I couldn’t eat. I stared at it, hoping my stomach will growl for it but my body had other plans. My heart was too busy racing, and my head were c
The Luna's Second Chance 86. Crossing the Line
Darius's POV I sat up instantly, cursing under my breath. “Magnus,” I growled silently. “What the hell did you do?”"You're welcome," my wolf purred smugly.“You took over. You came in here last night.”"You wouldn't. I had to meet her." He snapped at me.“You were supposed to stay put. I thought we agreed,” I hissed mentally.He didn't answer.Typical Magnus move. Whenever he does something impulsive, he vanishes when it was time to deal with the consequences.I ran a hand down my face and then glanced back at Aurora. Her long lashes rested on her cheeks, her hair splayed out over the pillow like waves of caramel and ink. I loved how peaceful she looked. Hating and loving what Magnus did at the same time. I stared at her with longing and how right it felt to be here beside her.I reached out, gently brushing a strand of hair away from her face and the moment my fingers grazed her skin, I felt it again.An electricity tingling sensation.It started at my fingertips and coursed throu
The Luna's Second Chance 85. Tug of War
Darius’s POVThe moment I stepped out of Aurora’s room and gently closed the door behind me, I exhaled a breath I hadn’t even realized I was holding. My chest was tight, my head buzzing with all the things I’d just heard and the things I hadn’t been brave enough to say to her. Every time I think I’ve figured her out, she throws me off balance again and again. I made my way to the room across the hall that has been prepared for me for the weekend. I shut the door behind me, leaning against it for a moment before getting off and stripping off my shirt.I headed straight for the shower, hoping the water would cool the thoughts rushing through my mind and as the warm water touched my skin, I rolled my neck, letting the water run over my back. Things weren't going as I planned it except the part where she had agreed to stay for the weekend. I didn't expect her to stay but she did. One thing I was sure of was that she didn't stay because of the way I persuaded her, I can tell from the lo
The Luna's Second Chance 84. Truth Between Us
Aurora’s Pov I looked at him, my heart thumping hard in my chest, and knew there was no turning back now once I spilled it out. I could tell from the way Darius's brows shot up that I had his full attention now.“I found out some things,” I began carefully, my voice low, “about Lily.”His expression darkened slightly with a mixed expression of confusion and curiosity. “Lily?” he repeated. “Alpha Alaric’s daughter? Kieran’s sister?”I nodded. “Yes.”He straightened, his gaze locked onto mine. “What kind of things?” he asked in a serious tone.“There are documents and images,” I began. “I left the folder in my bag, and my bag’s in the car that brought us.” I sighed heavily.Darius waved a hand dismissively. “No, it’s not in the car anymore. Mason already brought everything in. They’re in one of the rooms.”He stood and looked down at me then stretched out his hand in assisting me. “Come on,” he grabbed my arm and led me towards the room. “I’ll show you where you’ll be sleeping anyw
The Luna's Second Chance 83. A Place to Breath
Aurora’s Pov I hesitated, my body fixed on the mat we sat on as his words hung in the air. ‘Stay.’It was a simple request, but my mind was racing with a thousand reasons why I shouldn't consider it. Yet, it wasn't just his asking that made me want to stay. A turbulent storm was building up inside of me, making my heart pound and my palms sweaty in the cool night breeze. I feel like I was on the edge of doing something and one wrong action could take me deeper than I want to go.My instincts were screaming at me to be careful, to protect myself from these emotions that seemed to be out of my control but a part of me, a part that I couldn't quite explain, felt an overwhelming urge to experience the feelings and go with it. A part of my heart is giving in to Darius dangerously but my other part which is pent up with getting revenge is fighting the urge.I love the way he was making me feel, the butterflies I feel in my tummy, my heart pounding anxiously whenever I see him, the throb
The Luna's Second Chance 82. Revelation
Aurora’s Pov We walked in silence, the soft crunch of gravel beneath our feet and the sound of insects chirping filled the air. The night was cool but not uncomfortable, the kind that wrapped around your skin gently.I let my eyes roam. A garden was by my left. It was in full bloom with roses, tulips, wild daisies, and those pale lavender flowers I could never remember the name of. The scent hit me as walked by it side. The kind of smell that made your shoulders drop and your chest relax. It was beautiful and breathtaking sight to behold even in the dark with light stand by the walk way shining on it.I could also smell river or ocean ahead."Where are we going?" I asked, eyeing him from the side."You'll see," Darius said, that mysterious smirk playing at the corners of his lips.We walked a bit farther and soon the scent of the river became clearer and then, we turned a small corner of the path, and I gasped.A small fireplace had already been lit. There was a comfortable-looking p
