The Luna's Second Chance 7. Dance
Aurora’s Pov Stepping out of the bathroom, I sighed heavily, my heart pounding beneath as I tried to keep my calm. Shame burned in my chest, mixing with anger so thick it nearly choked me. I hated that Darius had witnessed that. I hated that I had to stand there, silent, while my so-called mate touched another woman in secret. But most of all, I hated that I had to pretend it didn’t bother me. Today was going to be a long and difficult night. I have to put on a smiling face and put up a deceitful face that masks my irritation and anger. Also, I have to avoid Darius, who is the Alpha of the pack we are currently, that I was entangled with in some shady rumors in the past. And now, it seemed, he's sort of obsessed about me, something I hope I'm delusional about. I took a deep breath, forcing a smile as I walked back into the grand hall. The dinner wasn’t over yet. The music and chattering filled the hall. I walked towards our table where Aria was seated and Kieran was engaged in a
Last Updated : 2025-02-10The Luna's Second Chance 8. A Dangerous Game
Aurora’s Pov I wasn't one that loves being the center of attraction but getting mated to the Alpha's son, future Alpha as well had put me in limelight on so many times until Kieran stopped seeing me fit enough to be taken to events. After I gave birth to Caleb it got worst, considering the fact that we werewolves still snatches back after childbirth, Kieran still always found a way to body shame me. Ivy pulling me to the stage to dance with her was something that happened in my previous life. This particular dance was the start of it all. I wore the dress Aria had picked for me and somehow my nipple had slipped out while dancing with Alpha Darius. The shame I felt knew no bounds and being pulled to that same dance floor brought a replay in my head even though I'd modified the dress better this time around. On getting to the dance floor, Ivy took each of Darius and mine hand then began to swirl in dancing motion, grining and smiling. When the others joined in the dance, she stopped

Darius's POV Kieran was pissed. I could see it in the way his jaw clenched, the way his fingers twitched at his sides as he tried to keep his anger in check. He was putting on a show, acting as if he was unfazed, but I could tell dancing with Aurora, being all naughty in front of everyone, had gotten under his skin. Good. It was so satisfying seeing him like this. While I teased Aurora, I had watched him shift uncomfortably so many times in his seat. I knew it was a matter of time before he gave in and when he approached us on the dance floor, his expression was tight, forced into something that resembled calmness. “Would you mind if I borrowed Aria for a dance?” he asked.I glanced at Aurora. She was looking at Kieran, her expression was blank. I could sense some unwillingliness in her, hoping deep down she'd stand up to him, ask him to fuck off and provoke him. Perhaps, if Kieran lashed out, I'd have a reason to intervene, to protect her as a guest in my pack. As Lycan King, I
Last Updated : 2025-02-12The Luna's Second Chance 10. Unwanted Attention
Aurora’s POV After the whole argument with Kieran, I knew going back in there was out of the option. I honestly was done for the day. I should have made up excuses to avoid attending the dinner party. I'd hoped with the knowledge of my past life, I could change some things but yet it all wasn't as easy as I thought it would be but I was still grateful I remodeled my dress and my nipple didn't slip off during the dance with Alpha Darius. I remembered seeing a bench nearby earlier, so I decided to take a walk there, to tire myself out before heading back to my room. I needed to get some energy out. If I had a wolf, I'd probably shift and go for a run or hunt but since I didn't, my only option was to walk. As I walked down the dark road, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched. I've been walking for about five minutes, and at first, I thought it was just my imagination playing tricks on me but as the minutes tick by, the sensation grows stronger. I can feel eyes on me,
Last Updated : 2025-02-12The Luna's Second Chance 11. Authority
Darius's POVAfter she walked away, I turned towards the way to my office building that I make use of in the pack for official purposes. Same as her, I was done with the dinner party and had no intention of going back. I was avoiding chances of having to make pointless small talks. Socializing was something I had crossed out of my list. My father had made sure of that.Growing up, my father had been a hard man. He was extremely strict and controlling at home. His idea of teaching me responsibility was through fear and intimidation. He'd often scold me, telling me I was worthless and that I would never amount to anything for being soft. I was always walking on eggshells around him because I never know when he would lash out at me.As I grew older, I began to realize that his behavior was not normal. He was abusive, and not just to me but my mother as well. His actions left deep scars in me. My mother and I had to hide our emotions, pretend that everything was fine when it wasn't. He wa
Last Updated : 2025-02-12The Luna's Second Chance 12. Obsession
Darius's POV Leaning back against my chair, I exhaled as I stared at the picture frame sitting on my desk. The photo it holds is one of my most treasured possessions. A picture of my mother, taken during one of the last trips I took her to before she died. My mind wandered back to that day, remembering the way we had secretly planned the trip behind my father's back. Looking at the photo, I could almost hear her laughter and the sparkles in her eyes that day. In the picture, she was caught off guard, her face radiated with joy as she gently rubbed her baby bump. She loved nature and I took her on a picnic. As I sat there, lost in the memories, I felt a pang of sadness. It had been years since she was gone, but the ache of her absence still lingered. She never wanted the pregnancy and she suffered greatly in my father's hand during that period. It was my fault I couldn't protect her. My heart throbbed from frustration of how another woman has waltzed into my life and in an abusiv

Aurora’s PovAfter Alpha Darius left, I took a moment before heading back to the Villa that served as the packhouse. Tonight's dinner party had taken place in the Grand dining hall inside the villa which was the only route I knew back to my room. As I entered the hall, I could hear whisper of hushed conversations, but I ignored them as I made my way to the staircase that leads to my room on the second floor. Just as I reached the stairs, I heard Aria call my name “Aurora”.But I didn't acknowledge her. I saw my mother in law, Avery, coming to my direction, her eyes locked on me but I didn't slow down and quickened my pace when a woman intercepted her in a conversation. The moment I stepped into my room, I exhaled, letting the weight of the evening settle over me. My body ached from tension, and my mind was a mess of twisted thoughts. I had changed something. I hope.In my past life, this dinner had been a disaster. Kieran’s mother had humiliated me in front of everyone, showing e

As time passes, I find it hard to withstand him but I knew I needed to keep my cool, so I can achieve my goals.I should have known.Of course, he would come looking for me. Not because he cared. Not because he was worried but because I had stepped out of line tonight, and Kieran never liked it when I did something he couldn’t control.

The Luna's Second Chance Tension at the Table
Aurora’s Pov The air in the restaurant shifted the moment Kieran and Aria approached our table. I felt my stomach tighten, already bracing myself for whatever stupid remarks Kieran was about to throw my way.“Good afternoon, Alpha Darius,” Kieran and Aria said at once together. “A pleasant afternoon to you both as well,” Alpha Darius responded.“Hey dear sweetie, how are you doing? How was school today?” Aria crouched down to greet Ivy with a warm smile.“I'm good, thank you ma'am,” Ivy answered in a polite and formal voice. “School was fine.” “Aurora... didn’t expect to see you here” Aria looked stunned, but she quickly masked it with a forced smile.“Well, well,” Kieran said slowly, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. “I didn’t know you’d be out, Aurora. You said you wanted to stay home, away from attention.”I met his gaze, unbothered. I wasn’t about to explain myself to him. “Plans change,” I said simply, refusing to give him the satisfaction of an excuse. His smirk d
The Luna's Second Chance 20. Tangled Encounter
Aurora’s Pov “Like how?” I asked, checking my outfit out.“Ivy sent this to me,” I added, unintentionally doing a complete 360 degree turning around.“Why are you dressed like a fugitive?” His lips curled into a smirk.I adjusted my scarf, keeping my face hidden more. "Just being cautious," I said. "I’m trying to avoid attention." Darius scoffed. I rolled my eyes. “Clearly, you haven’t seen the papers.”“I saw them,” he shrugged. “Well, I care,” I shot back, adjusting my scarf for what felt like a hundredth time. “I have a reputation to maintain.” I smoothed out the vintage fabric, making sure it was perfectly aligned. Then I realized it had begun to slip off again. I frowned puzzled.I had no idea why it keeps slipping off. ‘Why did it keep doing that? I had tied it securely’ I thought. I adjusted it once more.“Reputation, huh? And what exactly do you think I am? Some scandal waiting to happen?” he scoffed.He stepped closer, his fingers brushing against mine as he gently r
The Luna's Second Chance 19. An Invitation From Ivy
Aurora's POV “Don't” I held up a hand.He sighed. “Look, I know my mother can…” “She hates me. I know,” I cut him off. “I’m used to it.” It wasn't a secret to everyone that she had always hated me. Avery jumps at every opportunity she sees to make me miserable, calling me names, correcting my mistakes and when she heard that Kieran and I were mated, all hell broke loose that day, especially when Kieran told her that he had no plan to reject me. “She had no right to hit you,” he frowned. “And yet, you stood there and did nothing until your father stepped in,” I scoffed. Kieran exhaled sharply, running a hand through his hair. “That’s not fair. What could I have done?” “Something or anything?” I crossed my arms. “You didn’t exactly defend me, Kieran.” He clenched his jaw but didn’t argue. Instead, he changed the subject. “I’m going into town for some business,” he said. “Would you like to come?” “With all the news about me right now? Do you really think that’s a good idea
The Luna's Second Chance 18. His Mother's Wrath
Aurora’s Pov I wasn't expecting anyone this early, but I knew exactly who it would be when I heard the knock. Kieran. He must have already heard or seen the news about Darius and me. I sighed, bracing myself for the confrontation. I pulled the door open.The moment the door swung wide open, a sharp sting exploded across my cheek. My head snapped to the side, the impact so sudden I barely registered it at first. I blinked, my breath caught in my throat as I struggled to process the shock.The sting on my cheek gradually gave way to a dull throb, and I could feel my face burning with heat. I slowly reached up to touch my cheek, wincing at the tender spot where the slap had landed.I turned to look at her, Avery, Kieran’s mother standing before me, looking pissed and filled with rage.How dare she?My left hand still on my burning cheek as I stood in shock. Without waiting for my invitation, she pushed me aside and entered the room. I closed the door behind her, taking some minutes to g
The Luna's Second Chance 17. Puzzle
Darius's POV I leaned back in the chair, resting my head on the sofa, my fingers tapping against the armrest gently as I thought of the best answer to give Ezra. He sat in silence, looking at me with a look of quiet concentration, expecting what my response will be. Everything happened so suddenly, I haven't been able to process it all without the bond kicking in and making me act all unreasonable but I blame it all on my pent-up hormones. “So I spoke to our investigator about her after you asked me to find everything about her,” he said, seeing I wasn’t saying anything. “He’ll be getting back to me soon with details. Once I have them, I’ll forward everything to you.” I exhaled slowly. Aurora was still too much of a mystery, I really know nothing about her apart from the fact that she was introduced to me as Kieran's mate. I needed to know everything about her. Where she came from, what kind of life she lived before she ended up in my territory, before she became Kieran’s mat
The Luna's Second Chance 16. Unfinished Business
Darius’s Pov I woke up by dawn, the familiar urge stirring within me. It was time for my daily run, a ritual I cherished a lot. It gives Magnus freedom as well while I get to clear my head and give in to my animal side. I quickly got dressed and headed out. I was eager to let out all the pent up frustration and irritation inside of me. All through the night, I was restless, unable to stop thinking about her. The way she reacted to my touch in the stall had me craving for more. My body ached with desire. Even had wet dreams and my erection ached all through the night.Stepping outside, the morning air filled my lungs, I ran towards the forest in the pack. I put off my shirt and pants, not wanting to rip them apart when I shift. The last thing I needed was to walk home naked, especially when everyone would be awake.The shift was quick due to Magnus' eagerness to hunt. As I transformed, I felt a rush of adrenaline in me, heightening my senses. No matter how far I ran, the thoughts of
The Luna's Second Chance 15. Spotlight
Aurora’s Pov As soon as Kieran left, I felt relieved. I was half scared he would want to try something funny but thankfully he didn't. I let out a long sigh. Finally, I can lay my head to sleep. I wasn’t sure which emotion was stronger, relief or anger. Relief that he was gone, that I didn’t have to deal with his manipulative behaviors tonight and anger that he even dared to think he could touch me after being with another woman. I wasn’t that weak, stupid, naive girl anymore. I wouldn’t let him have sex with me again. More than anything, I wouldn’t let history repeat itself. I felt my heart clenched as I remembered Caleb. The memories of Caleb came flooding, my heart felt like it was being squeezed. The pain was suffocating, making it hard to breathe. I remembered Caleb, my sweet, innocent child, and the agony I felt when I lost him. I sobbed uncontrollably, the tears streaming down my face. I even made Aria his godmother. A deceitful, two-faced bitch. She honestly des
