20. Why?

The rising tension in the room grew stronger with each passing second because of a particular crisis. And in front of the pack leader of Rojo La Luna was a man kneeling with a desperate plea for answers."How come you let her go?" His baritone voice echoes in every corner of the room. While the leader, with a grave countenance, glowered at him without humor. No one should ever challenge his decision. "I can't keep something that wants to leave, Kairo," the chief quickly said, and as his hand waved in the wind, signaling the dismissal of the case, two men approached, each holding Kairo's arm, preparing to take him out."What about my sister? What will happen to Calixta if Aria finds out?" Kairo yelled as he was carried out of the office. The chief took his lighter from his pocket, lighted a cigar, and began spewing smoke like there was no tomorrow. His eyes were as icy and black as the night, veins visible in every movement of his hand.The woman's face, solely carved in his memory,

21. Reasons

Aria's POV Three hours have passed since I chose to stay at the peak. When Calixta returned home a while ago, she announced that she would help Lolita in the kitchen because the packhouse would soon be hosting a visitor, something I was unaware of. Mysha missed to notify me of it. Perhaps she was preoccupied with something. Though, it doesn't really concern me. I don't play a particular role in this bundle. Thanks to Mysha, I hardly qualify as an occupier. Out of the blue, Calixta's earlier query reappeared in my mind. I didn't respond when she asked why Nicholas and I weren't together. It wasn't because the question was difficult but because I had no idea how to respond to her. Our law prohibits us from rejecting our mate. Nobody will tolerate such behavior unless an Alpha turns down his mate for legitimate grounds. And whoever breached the moon goddess' fated link shall be punished. If Calixta finds out what I did, she could do the same. It isn't good. "Aria." My attention wa

22. Help

Aria's POV The pack was busier than usual. Following Alpha Luke's proclamation of the forthcoming battle against Rojo La Luna, everyone prepared their shelters or weapons. While I just stood on the balcony of my room, watching each shifter's panic rise. I am not afraid of the conflict, but I am concerned about the lives of the defenseless. Children lack the strength to fight. The secret lair had not yet been completed. Even the laser monitor on the frontier has yet to be reattached. Once the fight is pushed through, both sides will suffer a setback. 'You already did your part, Aria,' Kaia utters. It wasn't enough. I wasn't able to convince Mysha. She doesn't want mom and dad to face the problem that they made. She wants to involve everyone. It’s not right. I sighed, hands on the rails and eyes on the sky. The blue canvas was still tranquil as ever, while life on Earth was fraught with violence and chaos. Werewolves were meant to support their kind, unlike what is occurring now tha

23. Conversation

Aria's POV "You're nothing but a disease on this pack," mom yelled. She was so out of character. Her once elegant and controlled demeanor flipped into the very opposite of each adjective combined. She downgraded. "Not really," I scoffed. "I am a cure to your madness." The slap didn't stop me. It didn't intimidate me at all. If not for the fire in my heart to help the citizen in Crescentius, I wouldn't waste my time dealing with them. If Mysha won't make a cruel solution — then I have to give it a shot. Regardless of the little chance, it was still better to try. "You brat!" she growled. "Just sacrifice both of yourself to Milan to stop this chaos. Isn't that what you often did before to the omegas'?" I insist. Mom shook her head in disappointment, unwilling to give in to my suggestion, and neither was dad. "I should have aborted you when you were still in my stomach." Her words were like a newly sharpened knife stabbing my chest. It was too harsh— cutting the deepest part of

24. Attack

Aria's POVThe earth was covered in a thick white veil, with grey smoke outlining the horizon. The winter snow was in full burst following the hailstorm last night, which consoled me from all the hot turmoil of the day. Amidst the peaceful afternoon, a loud siren blast and resonates over the entire place.It was an attack alarm.The enemy must have crossed the border. And they'll surely be in the packhouse any minute now.Yet, I remained perched on the balcony, watching the male and she-wolves make their way to the northern border, where the alarm was wailing.I leisurely sipped my coffee while witnessing Alpha Luke and some of the officials follow the trails of the previous warrior. They are in a hurry. But I doubt Milan will deal with them. With Calixta inside the pack, disguising herself as a Crescentius member, she'll be the first to carry the plan.'Are you going to help them?' Kaia wondered.I will.The teacup made its way to the glass table, followed by the clicking of bones an

25. Goodbye

Aria's POV "What if she did?" Horror washed over me upon seeing the newly arrived man. Even my parents' expressions were shocked. Nicholas loomed directly in front of us, like a phantom swiping the frail heart in dread. His aroma was just as strong as it had been, and the pull of energy was also present. Yet the connection was the least of my worries right now, given the circumstances. "Why are you here?" I whispered. My words are like air passing through. He didn't even react, much less answer. His gaze was drawn to my sister, who was cradling Alpha Luke's unconscious body. "What did you do to Luke, Aria?" Mysha inquired once again. It's pointless to deny or fabricate falsehoods. Besides, I think it is not unethical for me to contribute to the resolution of this dilemma using my own style. It was the only way to put an end to the bloodshed. "I didn't do anything to him. Well...I kind of scratched him…that’s all." No need to overreact. He’s not dying. Mysha stares at me, disa

26. Return

Aria's POV Mysha, I’m sorry.Leaving Crescentius the second time around was harder and more painful than it was the first time. My heart feels heavy and down. Perhaps, it is because I know my exile is solely my fault. This time, my mistake was glaringly obvious, making me totally aware of it.After the crisis, it took me a few hours to understand every poor decision I had made—that addressing an issue alone would take longer than doing it with a companion—that trust and honesty should be valued when facing difficulties. I was wrong to think I could handle the situation against Rojo La Luna. Just look where it takes me.In my attempt to keep everything a secret, the disclosures were too hard to bear, leaving us all in ruins."Let's go, Aria," Nicholas said, tapping my shoulder.I averted my attention from the pack house and heaved a sigh before following Nicholas to his car. It never dawned on me that the time would come when I had to set foot in Red Moon again. After leaving that pla

27. Change

Aria's POV Mysha has previously advised me that in order for things to work, there must be some level of compromise. The concept was perplexing to me; it seemed to be too muddled to grasp. But now I see. I've even used it. Originally, staying with Nicholas was not something I desired. That wasn't even on my list of options. Yet, with a murky future ahead of me, I had to make some sacrifices. Nicholas was given to me by the moon goddess. Maybe she saw something in us that we didn't notice... that I failed to see. My obstinacy in refusing the bond must have resulted in the karma of exile for the second time. It's as though the moon goddess is convincing me that her will is superior than mine. That disobedience is pointless. Why was I so desperate to break the relationship with Nicholas again? Among the hundred reasons I've listed to justify myself, everything has come down to one: my pride. I don't desire a bossy, controlling, and abusive Alpha. I want the polar opposite of those de

28. Choke

Aria's POV "You killed my husband!"Lumina is yelling, looking like an insane woman, as she chokes me. It gradually got hard to breathe, as if my heart no longer pumped air to my lungs, resulting in a loss of oxygen. Her grip on my neck tightens with each passing second."Get off me!" I struggled to speak.We were talking casually earlier when she suddenly attacked me, ranting and shouting about his husband's death, which I know nothing about. Her calm exterior suddenly turned feral— deceiving me.Lumina was the opposite of what I imagined she would be—kind and good. Her soul is filled with rage and resentment towards the man who murdered her mate, which is not me. But she heaped her anger on me, putting the smile into confusion and peace into outrage."What the heck, Lumina!"I was gasping for oxygen as Nicholas freed me from Lumina's grip. There was no longer a hand on my neck, but I could still feel something on it, perhaps a mark from her nails.I didn't come here to be strangled

29. What if

Aria's POVLumina's case had me sleepless last night. Life is really full of uncertainties. It made me realize how risky it is to live— to make choices—to drive the wheel of fate.A lot of us made a mistake. Lucky are those who are given a second chance but unfortunate for those who have failed to redeem themselves. I, for example, despite making wrong decisions in the past, fate pardon me of death. A life to change is bestowed on me, and I must make the best of it."What's with the panda eyes?" Matthew noted.I grumbled before sitting on the bench beside the roadside. It was seven o'clock in the morning, and I just had a short jog in the place, trying to re-energize my body. And I happen to run into Matthew."Had some thoughts to ponder last night."I used to just brush everything off, but things had changed. For some odd reason, I felt responsible for the unfortunate ones. There's this zing inside me that wanted to be of use—to be in charge of the ruling. It was an emotion contrary
