Aurelia's POV

I lost count of the minutes that felt like hours in his arms but when he cupped my face, there was worry in his eyes.

His eyes were so sincere. He brushed his thumbs over my cheeks and his frown deepened.

"You're crying again," he said more to himself than to me, almost like he was trying to figure out why all on his own.

It was a sight that broke my heart even further. This man who would do anything for me would betray my trust? I didn't want to believe it.

I didn't even realise I was crying until he mentioned it. I was that much of a mess in my head already.

My thoughts were eating me alive like they were paid to specifically do so. Every scenario played in my head. How would he do it?

When would he do it? Would he look me in the eye like he was doing now? Would he still have that look of worry and affection in his eyes?

I didn't want to picture Liam being so cold to me. We were already past that stage. I liked the phase we were in now. It was nothing but a soft pat of

    Aurelia's POVLeaves crunched under my feet as I zoomed past the crickets of the night leaving my tears behind.I had no control over them. They could do whatever they wanted. They couldn't stop me from leaving, not even the howling of my wolf in my head.Her sadness was like a pitchfork pierced into my guts and twisted only to be ripped out leaving nothing but a hollow of anguish inside of me.I bit down hard on my lip, not caring when I tasted blood. My heart, after all, was bleeding too. The betrayal stung hard. The last thread I thought I jumped onto had been a figment of my imagination.With no money, no food, no destination in mind, I just ran. The further I ran deep into the woods the more the mate bond throbbed in my heart.My wolf was yet to accept it. She didn't want to believe it. The man we put our trust in had let us down strongly.She was in denial but I was already making the decision for us.He would be furious to find me gone but this was the best for both of us. Sinc

    Aurelia's POV Morning came and I was walking on my two feets. My wolf was tired and had retreated to rest. I was hungry, tired and dirty. I needed a bath, some food and a place to sleep too. I was already in another pack. I noticed it when the sky brightened and I encountered two to three children running around, chasing each other. When they saw me, they froze and they ran the other way, screaming for their mothers and crying. They looked at least five years old or seven, I could tell correctly. "I look that much of a mess, huh?" I smirked to myself and scratched my face. I looked down at my dirty hands and sighed heavily. If only I could find a stream or a public bath. That would be nice. I could wash my clothes and wait for them to dry or better yet, have them dry while serving as the hanger moving under the sun. I touched my necklace. "I guess it's just me and you again," I said to the poor thing and inhaled deeply, trying to gather strength from nature. I was leaving every

    Aurelia's POVShe led me back to the market and I could already feel the thick air and the silence. I noticed everyone's gaze on me the minute we walked into view. The relief was impossible to miss and I wondered just how much trouble they were in.I felt guilty for my actions and was determined to help them out of the situation. Only one thing though, how strict was their Alpha?I had faced a vile Alpha Prince, then a sweet and charming Lycan King who shook me from the beginning. I guess at this point, I was tired of meeting Alphas. I was scared as each of them had scarred me in more ways than one."Look, Alpha Adrian, she's here. She's alive!" The woman who had pushed me to the ground yelled with urgency and relief. She was on her knees with two guards beside her. One was in wolf form and he growled at her. She swallowed her words and lowered her eyes to the floor.All this for an apple? I felt ashamed. It was my fault she was in that position anyways."Where is the Alpha?" I mutter

    Aurelia's POVShelter? The words were all too familiar and I stared at the new Alpha who was approaching with the scripts of the old ones.I had wandered down this "shelter" path too many times to fall for this one. I knew how it would end and I didn't want to partake in it."Why do you look so shocked?" Alpha Adrian asked me with his brow arched like he was studying my body language. "All guests are supposed to be in my mansion.""B-But Alpha, I am not a guest," I reminded him. In fact, I should even be treated as a rogue and taken in for questioning."True," he shrugged. "But you've lost your memory and have nowhere else to go. Why not stay with me until you recover?"He had a fairly good point there. I was the one feigning memory loss and he was the one acting to be kind. Kind and Alpha never really went hand in hand.I have suffered enough from the pretence to know this already.His offer, though tempting, was too suspicious for me to just jump right into it. "I'm sorry but I can'

    Aurelia's POVIt was a mansion made for god's on land. While Liam's was a Castle and had more space and width, Alpha Adrian's mansion was flashy like he held a banquet every day of the week.The fountain in the centre of the place between the gate and the stairs, shimmered from gold while water poured endlessly. There were several statues of wolves at each side and I guessed they were his predecessors."Alpha!" Someone called at him and I saw the dark haired, slim figured man rush down the stairs with a colourful robe.He rushed to the Alpha and threw the robe around his shoulders, dropping down to the floor."Your mother has been worried about you," the man announced and Alpha Adrian groaned, rolling his head dramatically."I stepped out only two seconds ago," he murmured and started to walk away. The other man paused when he noticed me and a questioning look settled on his face.I averted my eyes immediately, staring at the floor that had not a speck of dirt on it."Who is this woma

    Aurelia's POVI guessed right. Alpha Adrian had someone by his side. The best I could do was try to remain invisible. Maybe even try to get out of the guest room too and be in the maid quarters.I didn't want him to treat me differently from his servants. After all, I had offered to come with him to work and earn for myself.I changed into my outfit and stared into the mirror. It looked lovely on me. Maybe even too much. I held my hair up after debating which one was less beautiful and catchy.I decided to let it down- covering the sides of my face. I considered getting a haircut- bangs would look nice and would hide my face a little more.I stepped out and saw Glenn and Casey already heading to me."You're all set up. Wow! You look like everything was made for you," Casey complimented and I resisted the urge to run back to my room and do something about it."Thanks," I mumbled instead. "What do we have to do?""The Alpha family will be having dinner soon. There are already people ass

    Aurelia's POVHer sudden change in character and her intimidating aura gripped me with fear.Beside me, Alpha Adrian chuckled nervously, "She's quite scary, isn't she? Don't let it get to you. Even I shiver when she doesn't get her way."I exhaled through my mouth, releasing the tension in my shoulders. Now that I thought about it, Liam never mentioned his mother. All I knew was that his father died of natural causes and his mother followed a few years later.At the time when he started to open up to me, I guess if I had asked, he would've told me… not that it mattered now anyways.A mother figure. It had been years since I came across one. I was starting to question the kind of family Alpha Adrian had."You're spacing out again," he drew my attention and I blinked at him. "What kind of home did you have?"A warm one.There was warmth and love in my home. My parents were each other's mates and they openly expressed their love and affection. I grew up in love, surrounded and bathed in

    Aurelia's POV I could only stare at my silver cutleries as her cold words came with silence. Her attitude was familiar but much appreciated unlike Emma's pretence. Maybe Liam rubbed some on her since they grew up around each other. Luna Maria didn't seem to mind the attitude. She cleared her throat and began to explain. It was an unusual thing for me that a common person could speak in that tone to the Alpha's family. She was his betrothed but she still wasn't his Luna yet. I wondered what kind of authority she had. While she spoke, I could almost feel the aura of an Alpha. Perhaps, was I mistaken? "Temporary amnesia," Aria said. "And if she never recovers?" I hadn't thought that far yet. "Then she would make new memories and make decisions befitting her personality and her choices right now," Alpha Adrian made it sound so simple and I saw sense in his words. The plan was to live a new life and try to let go of my past. While my past still clung to me in my heart, I was already

    Aurelia's POV How long has it been? "Your highness," I smiled at the guards as I walked past, feeling a bit self conscious at their greetings. I thought I would've gotten used to it now… well I was trying but the thought that everyone in the Pack knew my name and my title, was a bit terrifying. The Castle had been rebuilt as well as the properties that had been destroyed in the war. "Your highness!" Mia called in a sing-song voice. She rushed over to me with Glenn and Olivia by her side. It was nice to see them again. After the mating ceremony two weeks ago, I had sent a few guards to search for them and luckily, they were alive and well. I wish I could say the same for Casey. She fell alongside the Wild Rose Pack. "I've set everything already," I paused. "Well, the maids did. Let's go?" they nodded eagerly and we headed straight to the tunnels where everything came to an end. With the breeze in my hair and the laughter of my friends, I felt relieved. I never thought I could be

    Aurelia's POV"Stay back!""Let go of her, Emma!""If you take one step closer, I'll kill her!" her voice was breaking like she was in tears but there was still a hint of fear and panic in her tone."You've done enough already! Do you really want to add this to your sins?" This voice belonged to Emma. She was probably grinding her teeth in anger. She sounded like she would explode any minute.I was slowly regaining consciousness and strength over my body but I kept my eyes closed. The chain was no longer around my neck but her arm instead and she held me so close to her chest."I did everything for you!" Emma screamed. That meant that Liam was close by. "Everything! I gave my whole life to you. Everything you did, I did it too just so you wouldn't feel left out and alone-""You assumed all of that," Liam was sounding surprisingly calm. I didn't expect that. I wish I could see the expression on his face; would it be blank like a sheet or worried like a true lover?"Ha," she gushed out

    Aurelia's POVThere was no more than needed to be said. Emma had chosen her own path a long time ago. What was I thinking trying to show her pity? After all she had done, the only thing she deserved was death."I'm sick of this," Mia said beside me and started to walk towards them. "I'm going to beat her to a pulp and make sure she's hanging from a tree." She increased her pace and charged towards Emma.Just then, a few rogues in wolf form jumped out, attacking Hunter and Mia dodged quickly and surrounded me, keeping their eyes at the rogues that continued to increase.We were surrounded and from the look of things, it would take a miracle for us to get out of here alive."They killed the boss," Emma said, pointing in our direction. "I couldn't do anything because of this," she tugged at her chains. "Where is the key? Release me at once-""The key is with the Prince," someone answered her."What? Where is he? I can't wait that long? What if they kill everyone and come after me too?" S

    Aurelia's POVIt wasn't even up to thirty minutes and one group had been annihilated. How did they-"Are you the real Aurelia or are you actually a fake?" they sneered and I recoiled to my corner while Mia shielded their evil eyes from me. I could feel their murderous intent and the hard pressure of their gaze."Sorry," the smile in Mia's voice gave off a psychotic vibe that made me shiver. She was having a good time. I had almost forgotten that Mia had a thing for trouble."They are increasing!" one of the guards yelled from behind. "We can't stay here any longer. We'll be trapped-""Idiot! We're already trapped here. We either go back to the Castle or we go out there but either way, we're gonna have to fight and some of us are going to die and it's not gonna be me because his highness told me to live!" She grabbed my arm and pulled me towards them."Keep your face down!" she yelled as she pulled me further into the tunnel. I could only stare at the floor as the guards fought their w

    Aurelia's POV"How serious is it?" I asked for the umpteenth time but every time I did, something strange happened."Should I braid your hair?" Mia asked with a cheerful smile- more like a forced one. "I learnt how to braid when you were away."Whenever I asked about the war, someone would change the subject. It was too obvious they were avoiding having to answer, especially when they answered with something completely unrelated."I know what you guys are doing," I leaned back on my pillows, staring at all three of them. "You don't have to do that. Just say you can't tell me or that it's confidential."They glanced at each other before Carlos spoke up, "Wouldn't it be strange to tell the future Queen that a war is happening in her own land and she can't be informed about it.""Really?" I rolled my eyes. "Yet, no one is telling me anything.""We don't want you to worry," Hunter said as he stood by the door with his arms folded and his eyes closed. He was probably paying attention to so

    Liam's POVMia closed the door behind her, leaving me and Aurelia in our bedroom. I didn’t think she would have still been awake. It was a shock to hear her giggling from the hallway with Hunter, Carlos and Mia.Now she was swinging her legs while she sat on our bed in a silky thin strap night dress that covered her knees."I have never wanted to make eunuchs out of my warriors so bad," she gasped at my words with a smile on her face. "Tell, my dear, am I wrong to think such things? You're practically naked.""I'm wearing something," she said in her defence."Yes. I see your point," I folded my arms and kept my gaze on her boobs. It took a while but when she understood that, she threw a hand over her breasts."It wasn't like that a few minutes ago" she looked away. "My body only ever malfunctions when you’re close by." she blushed."So you’re saying even when you're next to my grave, you're ready to-""Liam!" She covered her face. "My goodness!" she shook her head aggressively with a

    Liam's POV"You gave them twenty four hours?" Andre repeated."That's 16 hours left," I pointed out. I had spent a great deal of time with Aurelia, exploring her body like it would be the last and enjoying our mate bond. The minute I stepped into the room filled with my commanders, everyone could smell the mate mark on me.Their faces lifted up and they were all in high spirits. They couldn't wait to get the war over and done with so they could hold a feast and celebrate that their king had finally been mated."We should ready the warriors soon," Commander Rhys said, staring at the map. "I'll lead my team to the southern part. We should have all four entrances blocked and have them surrounded. I have heard some pretty dark rumours about Norton.""Me too," Commander Denice replied absentmindedly with a hand stroking his chin. "The number of rogues he controls are," he trailed off. "If they all defend Red Valley, we may have a hard time penetrating.""But it's not impossible," Commander

    Liam's POVWe arrived with my beast in no time. Even the guards by the border didn't see us when we passed. They only felt the gush of wind and I saw how they all panicked, calling for backup immediately and some chasing after us. They alerted the Castle through the mindlink and once we arrived, I heard the footsteps of a hundred men, rushing to protect the land.I set Aurelia on her feet who clutched my hand like she would lose balance. She smiled up at me and despite the fear on her face, she had been thrilled by the ride. Her heart was beating loudly and I placed my hand on her stomach, hoping that wasn't too rough on our child."We're fine," she said, putting her hand over mine."We have you surrounded!" Andre yelled and stepped forward. "Surrender now or-" his words disappeared when he came a little closer and he recognized who was before him. His eyes moved between Aurelia and I with tears in his eyes.I saw the burden lift up on his shoulders and he turned to the others, "Someo

    Liam's POV"What do you mean by that?""The Beta families suffered an unfortunate fate! It is a sensitive topic-- how dare you bring it up so casually!""Unfortunate fate?" I repeated the word and glared at the woman who had said that, ''how disgraceful!''She flinched at my gaze but refused to back down. Her eyes were bloodlust and I saw through her boiling anger-- thanks to the file of course. She had lost a dear friend too but the case was swept under the rug for very obvious reasons that were oblivious to them."We will not allow you to speak about our dead-""What investigation was carried out?" I asked them. "Were the perpetrators even brought to justice? You tell me you honour your dead yet you all failed to produce the killer.""Your visit here is about my son," Alpha Hector chipped in. "I have promised to scold him so refrain from-""I have evidence," I took out the papers from my robe. "Evidence that Norton is behind what you termed an 'unfortunate event'.""Such wild accusa
