Chapter 11: A minute before Heartaches

Aine’s Point of View"Oooh, you look so gorgeous! I need pictures, all the pictures! Moon Goddess you look like the luna queen,” Lindsay crooned as the side of her eyes crinkled. She patted the side of my arms excitedly."Oh Lindy, stop! No way,” I flushed and shook my head furiously, feeling my cheeks heat up from embarrassment. "Just Aine please and nothing else."We were both looking at my reflection in the mirror. Lindsay only laughed at my loud refusal and waved me off to quickly go get her camera in the living room. She took Eion with her and promised him apple slices.We were in her bedroom adding the final touches to my hair for the celebratory dinner.The day had finally come, the morning had been hectic to say the least moving in the Lunar pack. It was filled with lots of bustling back and forth. I made sure everyone had their respective living spaces based on the family size given and there were no mix ups. I also had to rectify any complaints. Resources were distributed e

Chapter 12: A heart that hopes

(After Aine find out everything that she wasn’ the Luna and Oishin’s betrayal)I was in the bathroom for what felt like a lifetime. My wolf howled in pain. I was still trying to come to terms with it all. I wheezed out a breath, waiting for the dots to disappear. Everything was a blur and every breath felt like torture. I tried to focus on all the pieces of broken wood on the floor. The pain was suffocating and I couldn't bear it. I shivered uncontrollably on the tiled floor, choking on my tears.All the vows he'd made, he'd broken them. He'd lied.Images of Caitlin and her words were burned into my brain. Oishin had been touching her, making love to her. I was now connecting all the dots, all the things that now suddenly made sense. It only made everything worse and it was getting worse.Was I that easy to fool? I closed my eyes tight against it all but there was nothing to stop this. I wished it was all just a dream. That I'd close my eyes and open them and that's all it would be.

Chapter 13: It's over

Oishin was coming by. I couldn't believe it when Lindsay had uttered the words. It sent a surge of energy through me. Somehow it felt like he never would, like he'd wiped me entirely from his life and had forgotten about me. Everything was moving so quickly more so he was getting rid of me so quickly. It was heartbreaking.The thought of finally seeing him and being close to him sent a flood of tears. I was dying to be near him. It was a side effect of our bond. This was my chance to convince him that I could be better. This was hope. This meant something. It was a small amount of light compared to the tiring darkness and excruciating pain I've been in for the past few days. I would fight for him because if I lost him then I'd lose it all.That's the thing, you don't just stop loving someone. I would convince him, I would beg if I had to, more than I've ever begged for anything in my life. I was holding out hope that he would come around once he saw that I was willing to change and

Chapter 14: Broken

I shook my head fervently, feeling the tears fall."You promised me forever. Y-you swore. W-we're fated mates.""That was then and this is now. When we met, I settled on Aine. Caitlin is my mate and she is now my forever. She is everything I want in a woman. She represents both the pack and I well. I am to be the Alpha King, I cannot be walking around with you. You do nothing for me anymore."His words sliced through me, almost bringing me to my knees."I could try," I pleaded. "Just give me a chance to try,"It would be a waste of time. You're mediocre at best."I pulled in a harsh breath. It felt like I had been slapped."So you're rejecting me?"My lungs burned for air as my mind reeled around his words. He moved closer to me and his eyes went to the mark on my neck."This is what I wanted to discuss with you."I looked at him hopefully."I will have to give Caitlin my mark. She will be my chosen and be by my side. But I will still provide a home for you here. You will always have

Chapter 15: A plan to Kill

My placenta had ruptured. That's what she said. There were so many noises going on around me but I was numb to it all. I was cold, so cold.It kept replaying in my head and if I closed my eyes it was all I would see, him thrusting into her over and over again. It was the final straw. There was nothing left. He broke me. I was here but I wasn't. I was a ghost, a shell of my former self.Lindsay brought me to the pack hospital. I was barely conscious. It was inevitable that Eion had to come with us, there was no one to leave him with and there was no time to waste.The pain was unbearable and the bleeding wouldn't stop. Our pack doctor, Cloud, Lindsay’s mate rushed me in immediately. Even all his years of experience and professionalism couldn't mask the terrified look in his eyes. I asked him if this was how I was going to die. He only blinked back tears. At least I'd known this was coming compared to everything that had happened to me in the past few days.I guess he heard. I don't kn

Chapter 16: Old Pack

Lindsay and Cloud wanted to come but I couldn't take them with me. It was too dangerous. I didn't know what lay ahead. They already helped me enough. Most importantly they had family here, I couldn't take them away from them or forgive myself if anything happened to them because of me.If anything, Lindsay could honestly just say Cian came for me which was the truth. She wouldn't be liable. If they pressured her she could add that I went to my parents, they wouldn’t come looking there for me anyway.Hopefully I'll be gone by then.I'd miss her more than anything. Lindsay was really my only friend and more like a sister. I surely will miss her. I don't know what would have happened to me if I didn't have her.

I could watch my son's life end right before my eyes.I hugged Eion tightly in the backseat as the panic settled in. He was still sleepy,

Chapter 17: For Once

It was terrifying to say the least. I was staring out at the lawn. It made sense, but the thought of being alone against them was jolting. We left together with me practically following him out in the darkness and now here I was with no idea where I was going."I know it's terrible that you have to when you aren't in your best state. I know you're in a lot of pain and you really seem out of it. You're barely hanging on but you are surprising."I looked at him questioningly. I'd never had anyone describe me as surprising. He placed his hands in his pockets and the light caught his hair reflecting a hue of dark brown. His grey eyes were comforting."You're much more than people let on. You have to try and stay here in the present. It's not just Eion anymore, you have two more people who are counting on you. I would drive you halfway across Earth if I could but I'm just one man, a demoted Beta with a high risk pregnant woman and a toddler against one of the most powerful men and packs in

Chapter 18: Hallucinating

Driving across the country with a broken heart and a toddler while pregnant is one of the hardest things I've ever done. I could barely see much out of my left eye because it was swollen. I couldn't wait it out until it went down. Time was of the essence and it could cost us our lives.I could taste the blood in my mouth as I pulled out of my father's driveway. I had to wipe my lip every few seconds because it refused to stop bleeding. It was just like old times growing up. I tried to blink back the tears as I directed the car to the nearest gas station for gas and supplies.I got a lot of stares when I stopped at the local gas station and I tried not to dwell on it. I only paused to look in the glass window. The extremely swollen half of my face was decorated with shades of purple turning black and blue. I absentmindedly reached out to touch it. It hummed in pain. I didn't think I could look any worse.I didn't think about it. I drove non stop until I couldn't anymore, day and night,

Chapter 19: No home and warmth

It was like a call in the darkness. My body was frozen in fear. Oishin’s commanding voice sounded on edge and I hung up the phone quickly. There would never be enough time in the world to calm my racing heart. I didn't stay there that night, I left immediately.I knew I had to keep a tighter rein on myself. I couldn't let myself go, if not for me then for everyone else with me. I had to fight it with everything I had. I was terrified of what was happening. If I went then they went with me and that was the most terrifying part of it all. They needed me more than anything else.So I tried. Whenever my mind drifted to him I thought of something else, anything else. It was beyond mentally draining and sometimes I would find myself disoriented and sweating profusely ready to lose consciousness. But it worked. I was holding on to my sanity.It took a week to arrive at the Half Moon sanctuary. It was a disappearing turn off, hidden deep within the thick of a forest, the only sign of an access

Chapter 20: The Orphanage

Some of the huts used thin sheets to block the entrances but I needed them to bundle Milo up so he was warm. I placed him to sleep between me and the wall. He had already been falling asleep by the time we got to the room. I brushed his dark hair back as I watched him sleep. "I'm sorry it's not the best." A lot of things had become startlingly clear in the past few days; the bitter truth. I had blindly placed too much faith in Oishin thinking he would never hurt me. I had placed everything into building him and his pack. But here I was in a run down hut with no money and nowhere to go, I went in with nothing and I left the same. I hadn't made sure I had even an account set aside or something of value in case something happened. I left with nothing. I didn't have any skills other than being luna. I had blindly followed him in the name of love thinking I was taking my rightful place only for it all to be a joke. The simple gold ring that he had given me for my worth couldn't have aff
