All Chapters of Loathed by the Alpha: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

/Aiden's POV/  "Mama!" I called out, breaking the silence that settled in the packhouse, my feet pattering across the creaky floorboard. My lips twisted when I didn't hear a response. Why was my mother not responding to me? Turning five made me reach all sorts of knobs on the door, which excited me. With my newfound ability, I pushed the door of the nearest room, which happened to be my parent's bedroom.    "Mama?" I patted at my mothers back as she hurriedly stuffed her clothes in the bag, shoulders shaking lightly. She didn't turn, bother turning around, pushing her hair away from her face.    "Are we going on a trip, mama?" My lips broke out in a grin; palms excitedly joined together. The last one we went to did not work out for us as daddy had an early meeting.    "No!

I kept watching as we passed the buildings, my hands fidgeting together, face stoic and blank. The time in that alley was straight out of my nightmare coming to life, rogues chasing and trying to take me away. A lump formed in my throat, making it difficult to swallow as I tried to keep my breathing even. My omega was shaking internally, fear gripping my insides, fingers tightening together.    I would give everything I had and more to make it stop, erase everything wrong that's happened to me and beneath it all, my insides started to boil with anger and defeat. They were too strong for me, so much so I couldn't defend myself. If not for Aiden showing up at the right time, those rogues would have taken me away.    The thought sat heavily in my stomach, making the tips of my finger red, toes curling in my shoes. Ria kept shifting her eyes towards the window, watchin

/Aiden's POV/  The night's breeze fell gently around us as I tugged her outside. The sky was an indigo colour, with the moon disappearing behind the tops of the pine trees. Our walk to the shopping mart took us about twenty minutes long. My eyes strained while staring at the fog that hadn't cleared up and formed a thick layer on the gravel road. I kicked against a few pebbles on the pavement, pushing my hands in the pants pockets.   The pavement ended when we got to the town border, and I trudged through the high grass alongside the road.   Rose sat on one of the benches in the town square, unable to walk any longer. Her eyes were closed, arms spread on the backrest of the wooden bench, and she was staring at the moon peeking through the clouds. There were a few pack members in the town square, most of them walking their dogs or chatting up one another near

/Aiden's POV/   "Liam," I started, staring up at my mother with wide eyes. She was sitting by the edge of her bed, legs folded together and an arm wrapped around her belly. As a five-year-old who heard a lot of unfamiliar words, I needed to have my doubts cleared. Who better than the Luna of the Pack? "My friend said his big sister found her mate last week. They will also bond. What does that mean, mum?"   "It means that they will mate for life," She had her lips twisted. "The one she is mated bites her on the neck, severe their ties and promise to love and protect her forever. It's an extraordinary period of our life." The Luna smiled at me softly.     I chewed on my lip, mind whirling with the information that's been poured over, almost too much for my young mind to handle. But I he

/His POV/  I couldn’t help but notice that Rose was quiet. Did the gift render her speechless? Or maybe it’s because I would be leaving in few hours. I didn’t know when I would be back, if at all, although I hadn’t said that possibility out loud yet. That’s why I wanted to leave on a happy note, make sure that Rose had everything she would need for a while.    It’s still cold but milder than it’s been for weeks; the sun has already started to peek through the clouds, the air crisp and fresh. I chose one of the more scenic routes if it could be called that. The lawn adjoining my cabin was the only place I could think of.    We didn’t have much time, to begin with.   From
