Aiden's POV There was so much blood. The blood kept pouring from his mouth as he coughed. The knife protruded from his chest, and the blood poured from the wound. His lifeline was fading quickly, each strand snaps rapidly. I feel the mate bond rapidly getting weaker until the final snap and I no longer feel him. That final snap was painful and excruciating. It tore my heart out. "Thaddeus!" I cried out and screamed at the top of my lungs. My heart hurts so bad. My world crumbled right in front of my eyes. "Ai..." I can't live without him, I can't breathe without him. I don't want to live in a world where he's not there. "Thaddeus!" I cried out, screaming at the top of my lungs. Something shook me and I heard an echo of a voice. "Aid..." Thaddeus faded away until I couldn't see him anymore. "No! No, no, no! Come back! Don't leave me here alone without you! Take me with you! I can't live without you!" I screamed again. "AIDEN!" My eyes shoot open as I take a large breath
Noah's POV "Noah baby, we have to get up." I hear Michael say again. I bury my face deeper into his neck, "No, I don't want to," I said, my words sounding muffled from my lips being pressed against his neck. I opened my mouth and sucked on his neck, as I let my hand roam down across his stomach until my hand was wrapped around his cock and Michael hissed. "Noah, we have to get up!" Michael said in his deep, rough, sexy morning voice. I hear Michael growl as I squeeze his cock. Feeling it twitch in my hand as it stirs to life. I slowly began stroking it as I suck and kiss on his neck. "Fuck, little one!" Michael says as he growls. I rock my hips forward, pressing my hardened length against his hip, letting him feel how hard I am. "Little one, you're being very bad!" Michael said with a growl. I continue to stroke his length, letting my thumb slip over the head, running my thumb along the slit as I spread the precum around for lubrication. I bite down where my mark is and tha
Aiden's POV I hear cars pulling up as I walked towards the food tent. I looked over to see Noah climbing out of the car and was excited to see him. I haven't seen him since the week after I woke up. Everything's just been so busy at both of our packs, we haven't been able to see each other. "Noah!" I called out as I happily waddled over to him. He laughed when he saw I was trying to waddle faster toward him. He shook his head before he took off running toward me. Probably feeling sorry for my poor attempt at trying to walk fast. "There's my very pregnant, Luna!" Noah said as he leaned over my massive stomach, and hugged me. I wrap my arms around Noah, squeezing him tight. "I missed you so much!" I said as we pulled away from the hug. "I miss you too, brother from another mother!" Noah says smiling. He then drops down to his knees and rubs my belly. "Hey in there! It's your big brother Noah!" He said to my stomach and my heart swelled. I know he looks at Thaddeus as a fathe
Thaddeus's POV I looked on in horror as the doctor frantically worked inside Aiden's stomach while a nurse readied the machine with two paddles in her hands. “It's ready Dr.” The nurse said with a trembling voice. “One more second Angela, I almost have it…” The doctor said as he focused as hard as he could. “Got!” The doctor said as he quickly withdrew his hands from Aiden, and held them in the air while the nurse moved forward with two paddles. “CLEAR!” The doctor yelled as he moved away and a nurse told me away from Aiden. The nurse placed the paddles on his chest and I held my breath as tears streamed on my face. My heart felt as though someone ripped it out of my chest. I couldn't believe this was happening, the pain was so bad. It seemed like forever before his body suddenly jerked violently, his back arching off the bed. The nurse looked at the monitor which spiked for a moment but was already back to a long continuous line, and a constant sound came from the machine.

Please read with caution. ****Prologue Many years ago, life was very different for werewolves. Back then, the weak were either discarded, killed, beaten, raped, or used as sex slaves. Throughout the years, life has changed, but not everywhere. Some Alphas still hold tight to the ways of old. The way they were taught. Midnight Moon pack, located in Watton of Michigan's upper peninsula, is one of the largest packs in North America with over 1500 pack members, and they no longer cling to the old ways. Alpha Thaddeus has continued his father's legacy, trying to rid the world of Alphas who are still stuck in the old mindset and not only still keep slaves but rape, beat, and starve their Omegas. Thaddeus's father started this crusade, but unfortunately, he never got to see it through. Thaddeus beca
Third Person's POV It's been six years since the day Thaddeus was rejected. The rejection was excruciating, and it took over a month before the pain entirely subsided. Initially, it left the Alpha weak, making it hard for him to do daily tasks. Food was the farthest thing from the Alpha's mind. He only ate when he was forced to. Even when he tried to eat, the Alpha would fall asleep in his wheelchair with this food barely eaten. The nights that should have been welcoming and restful they turned into anything but that. At night, the body experiences withdrawals from the loss of the bond, resulting in painful episodes that, at times, lasted over an hour. The Alpha woke every night sweating and screaming in pain. In the beginning, those episodes came several times a night. As more time passed, the episodes became fewer until one day, they were gone. It took almost a year before Thaddeus felt like himself again. But he wanted nothing to do with love and hoped he didn't have a second cha
Third Person's POV At six years old, a frightened, scared and lonely little boy was found wandering just inside the territory of the Blood Moon Pack. The little boy thought this was his salvation. He thought he had found a safe place to live and people who would care for him, but it turned out to be anything but that. For the first two years in his prison, he was locked in the basement alone. He was starved, hardly fed. When they did feed him, it was scraps or something old and rotten. Even water was scarce, and he was constantly hungry and thirsty. His body was thin and frail. He was cold and alone in the damp, dark, cold basement of the pack house. Hunger and thirst were the only torture he endured for those first two years. Then, when he turned eight, the Alpha made him a slave of the pack house. He was forced to clean and learn how to cook. It was a challenging task for someone eight years old who had never cooked or cleaned. He made a lot of mistakes as he learned. With tho
Third Person's POV After reaching the river, Zeus drops the bag in his mouth before shifting. The Alpha pulls his swim shorts on and then turns to grab his leg strap. When Thaddeus turns and reaches for his bag, he finds Xander has already dug through it. Thaddeus tilts his head and exhales as he watches the goofy Beta. “Xander, for crying out loud! Give me back my damn straps!” Thaddeus scolded the idiot, who took his leg strap and strapped his legs together before trying to waddle toward the water. “No! I'm a mermaid!... Hey, I have a good one for you. How do you recognize a nerdy mermaid?... She wears an algaebra!” Xander fell into a fit of laughter after delivering the punch line to his joke. Thaddeus tried not to laugh but failed, and he chuckled, earning a bright smile from Xander. “You're an idiot!” “Why thank y-” Xander began to say, but his words were cut off when he face-planted into the dirt. Thaddeus laughed harder and shook his head. “Serves you right! Now give
