Author’s Pov. The fight was fierce, and there was a lot of blood, the moon didn’t come out as they thought it would. It was rather a dark moment in the pack, as it was covered with blood. Aria didn’t want them to kill either of them but wanted them to face judgement instead, they were defeated and then captured. Rowan thought that he stood a chance against Aria and Damon but he wasn’t able to get past just Aria. They were made to face the council, and Aria charged the other Alphas who came with Rowan for conspiracy. He denied that everything played out was a lie even when they attacked the pack. Abby had come in, he was surprised to see her, she came in with the help of Kade who held her since she couldn’t quite manage on her own. She started to bring evidence of what Alpha Rowan had done to her, her parents were in the courthouse as well, they came and brought evidence against Rowan. He couldn’t speak anymore or could defend himself for what he had done. Aria came up and re

Aria. The night was dark, there wasn’t even a moon in sight, I had felt, that something was coming, and we were getting prepared. The pack had been busy and everyone seemed to be preoccupied with one thing or the other, we hadn’t had a chance to discuss with each other and we had all been busy. “…I think they are coming this way,” Liam said as he met with me at the balcony, we were all gathered at the pack house but at different places at the moment. “They couldn’t wait.” “Knowing Rowan, that’s how he acts, and he does that fast because that’s how he thinks as well.” “So he’s coming here thinking that we aren’t prepared for him or what?” “He could think that way, that he’s about to launch an attack on our pack, and get all of us in one go, that’s probably what he’s planning.” “Then he must be stupid thinking we are just going to wait for him to attack and not do anything about it.” I tapped my hand on the railings and we stared ahead into the night. “Why did you leave Rowan?”

Rowan. “…isn’t it about time you take the mask off your face?” I asked with a groan and walked over to my desk, I sat down and took the bandage off my shoulder. The wound that I had sustained was very deep, and it took time for it to heal completely, but still, it left a scar on my shoulder. “I’ve to get Aria back. I didn’t hear from Denon and that only means that she must’ve been awake. That’s the reason he didn’t come back to find me, else he would have done that.” I tossed the bandage on the ground and exhaled. He blinked his eyes at me and wasn’t saying much, I frowned at the reaction that I got from him. “I thought we were in this together.” “You never told me about your plan to get married to her.” He said. “Well, it didn’t quite work out, did it?” “You should’ve told me about it, but you didn’t.” “You are hiding something from me too ain’t you?” I raised my brow at him. “Why don’t you take off your mask and then we can know if it’s worth it to trust each other.” He ch

Aria. The Alpha of the Crimson Pack knew who I was, and he didn’t hesitate to allow me into his pack, the second that I arrived there with Damon. He was the one who saved me that night, that’s what he told me. We followed him into the Pack, and his office, his pack wasn’t as big as Damon’s Pack, and his pack members were minimal, I wondered how someone like him could hold that power when he wasn’t even equal to most of the strongest and powerful packs in the country. “…I wasn’t the one who had bound your powers.” He said, and I raised my brows at him. “Then who did?” “Have a seat.” He gestured to Alpha Damon and me. “It was your mother.” He replied, and I blinked my eyes at him. “My mother did that?” “Yes, she did it at the very last minute, and had your powers bound, she wanted to protect you from him.” “You sounded like you knew my mother.” “I did. She grew up in our pack,” “When her pack was under attack, she requested help, but it came late, and when we got there the pa

Aria. I stared at Damon after she had shamelessly left the house, he was quiet, and we were all seated in the living room. “…we went to bury him today,” Kade said he was the one who broke the prolonged silence. I took my gaze away from Damon and stared at him. “You should have woken me up,” I muttered. “We didn’t want to bother you, and knowing how you feel about Peterson. We thought it was better to leave you out of it and tell you after, it wasn’t nice there, the one you saw here was worse than what happened there. His family was so tucked up.” Kade sighed. “I never liked him but, I could tell he had a lot held in him, and must’ve been through so much. Seeing the family he came from, I kind of pity him a little bit, they didn’t care about him or even choose to respect him on his last day.” Kade clicked his tongue. “…all they did was blame the Alpha for what happened.” Damon excused himself from our midst and took the stairs to his bedroom. I wanted to go after him but Soren sh

Aria. Damon had my bathroom prepared and made me get into the bathroom, he carried me down to the bathroom and placed me on the bathtub, he washed my hair gently, I could feel his tender fingers on my scalp and didn’t want him to stop. I bathed and left the bathroom with him, and he chose the clothes that he wanted me to wear before I could rest for the night. Next, he served me breakfast, and after I was done eating, he lay next to me on the bed and watched me. His fingers stroked my hair affectionately. “I had my hopes up…” His voice came up, and I leaned closer to him. “I thought I might not be the one that will end up as your mate and even if it wasn’t me, I was going to do what I had to, but I did hope that I ended up being your mate. Aria.” He confessed and I touched the bridge of his nose with a smile on my face. “My wolf chose you.”“What about you? Did you choose me?” “I did. We both did, Damon.” My hand moved down to his chest and he heaved a sigh of relief. He pulle

“…you didn’t have to come.” I said while I held the front door against Kasper, he was in black jeans and a blue sleeve, and a black sneakers. He looked a bit nervous with those tiny beads of perspiration forming against his forehead. “I had to, your mom invited me, and I wanted to make a good first impression on her.” He tried to smile, his lips were quivering, I folded my arms and watched him. “Are you sure you’ll be fine?” He cleared his throat. “I can manage.” He took in a deep breath, and let it out slowly. “That kinda helped.” He chuckled and nodded at me. I moved away so he could get into the house, and he walked in. “This is my first time in the Alpha’s mansion or getting this close to Ocean.” I heard him mumble while I led him to the dining area, and he followed closely. “This is Kasper.” I introduced him to everyone when I faced them. Mom stopped up from her seat and went to hug him, her hand patted his back sweetly. “You are always welcome here, Kasper.” She muttered

The kiss was brief, with my lips just touching his, and then I pulled away from Kasper. I tilted my head to the side directly at the point that he stood. He remained there, his eyes looking distant, there were no words, and no reaction from him. He turned and strolled out. No words. Nothing. I stared at Kasper, his eyes were wide open at me, I knew that he needed explanation for what just happened but I wasn’t ready to explain all of that to him that night. As long as he got the message, there was no way, I would be stuck as his mate. “Eris…I.” “Not tonight, Kas. Let’s do this some other time.” I jogged out, I didn’t go back to the mating ritual, I didn’t want to be seen with anyone. I went back to the car, and sunk into the backseat, placed my headset on, I wanted to be anywhere except here, and the look on Ocean’s face when he saw me, the moment we stood there, staring into each other. Our wolves felt the connection, the bond was there, she was yapping at him, a

“Can you at least help? If you ain’t going to, go back to your room and stop intruding?” Ocean glared at me, he was dropping the act of being nice each time we were alone. I grabbed a box and headed towards the car, the Alpha will be driving to the Pack house, and the preparation of the mating ritual will take place there. “You don’t have to do that okay?” Alpha West said and took the box from my hand, he placed them on the car booth. “You can sit in the pack, we will take the rest of it.” I nodded and went to sit in the car, plugged my AirPods on, and started a random song. Someone took it off my ear. “You’re something else, Iris.” “Do you have a problem with me?” I took back my AirPods from his hand. “Your father wanted me to sit out.” “And you did?” “Obeying the words of the Alpha, got a problem with that?” I put back the AirPod and glanced at the window. Alpha West got into the car with Mom, and they were smiling at each other. I shook my head and turned away from the

“…so you told your new family about me?” “Eris, they are helping us.”I snorted. “They are helping you.” I was staring dumbly at the uniform on my bed. “So I’ve to go to this new school.” “You’ve to finish High school, I talked with West, and he helped me to get you into this school, no other school would have accepted you.” She stresses, she was seated in my bed. “You didn’t come downstairs for dinner, and you didn’t eat breakfast with us either. You can’t keep doing this, Eris. It’s not what I want for you.” “Mom, stop. You want me to go to the school, I will go.” She smiled now. “Hurry up, I will pack some breakfast for you, you can get a ride with Ocean.” “I don’t want that. Give me a ride instead.” She nodded with a smile. “I will, honey.” Got up from the bed and placed a kiss on my cheek. Since I was eight, it had always been mom and I, and that was as long as I can remember. I hated that she hid the fact that she was seeing another man, that she had fallen in love and

The drive was quiet, I said nothing to her while I was sulking on my seat and she said nothing to me. Her hands were clenched tight on the steering wheel. “So you’re not going to say anything? Why are you acting this way!” She snapped. “Why?” I asked, breaking the prolonged silence. “I just found out that you are getting married! And now we are leaving the pack, it only seems as if we are running away!” I said at the top of my voice. “And you?” She asked. “You were expelled from school, Eris. No other school in the pack could accept you, you’re in your 12th grade!” She hit her fist on the wheel and exhaled. “And you hid that from me, if I hadn’t called the school to ask about you, and they told me you got expelled, I would have never known.” “That’s different.” I rolled my eyes. “How?” “You are getting married to someone that I had no idea of and now we are leaving the pack.” “We don’t have a choice. You need to go to school somewhere else, and the pack will accept us.” “Wh
