AuroraFor many years, I lived with a void in my heart. A space in my chest, not being able to find a place I truly belong. My best friend tried to help out, but she also was quite limited and in most ways similar to my upbringing. Growing up in the hands of palace maids and chefs who took delight in making our lives miserable.Regardless, there was this tiny voice in my head. That kept telling me to push on and don’t give up. To think my solace was becoming Damon’s Luna, would have been the worst nightmare for me, after finding out how he was involved in the cruel treatment of my parents.“Life works in mysterious ways.” I thought to myself. Realizing that my sale to Darius as his ‘breeder’ was something that took the lowest form of dismay. Was actually the most fortunate thing that happened to me.It was from this, that I finally found people who would become my long-lost family. Also, through my self-growth and discovery. I became the long-awaited white Luna. A mythical wolf who ha

DariusMy wolf was grunting, wanting to transform. Luckily, her wound healed quickly. But, I was about to chase down the rogue who scratched her. Preparing to take off, she gently held my forearm.“Pls don’t, Darius. I’m fine. I am just a bit tired. Let’s go home. We have a lot of work to be done,” she softly said. I took a deep sigh as I took a step back. My warriors had already taken care of the remaining rogues. So, we were not in any imminent situation. I gestured to proceed with our journey.“Let’s get out of here as soon as possible!” I yelled out. Immediately, they all moved into position as we headed out. I signaled the driver to make haste as we all entered our various vehicles. Aurora laid down calmly on my thighs, she quietly dozed off as I straightened her long flowing hair. A wave of anxiety washed over me.“I hope she’s alright?” I pondered to myself. My wolf whimpered, also bothered by her dwindling energy. I snapped back to reality. I knew the last thing she would want

DamonMy jaws dropped to the floor. I could hear lightning sounds all around. My eyes widened in awe. This man had a slightly built, clean, shaved face. No way to believe he was the man who instilled this much tension in Mr. Rivers’s household. Their family legacy was all known. Yet, it meant little or nothing to this person sitting right in front of me.“Are you the man who was seen in the Rivers’ mansion?” I rhetorically asked. He simply scuffed and curved his lips to reveal a smirk on his face.“I dunno what has been said about me. But, I can only say both myself and William have similar and aligned interests,” Mr. X responded. Sweat beaded on my forehead. “Did he just say William?” it took a few seconds to realize he was referring to Ember’s father. Mr. Rivers. That was a name only a few privileged people knew about. However, I sat across someone who barely flinched, dropping that name. I took a deep sigh, before meeting his gaze.“What can I do for you? I’m sure you have a tight

Aurora“Maria.”That was my mother’s name. A name that immediately called out to me. A familiar and friendly feeling was attached to it. Like I always knew about it. Suddenly, it dawned on me that when Marcus mentioned that name, my wolf became very quiet.Even before I had my transformation. My dreams felt too real and vivid. There was something about the wolf and when she stared at me, it felt comforting and made me forget whatever uncertainty and anxiety. Not at any moment, that I felt it would turn cold towards me.There was always a drawing energy towards her, it felt almost…maternal. “Maria…mother, is that you?” I asked my wolf. She remained silent, which only fueled my suspicion.“I guessed as much, that was why I am always safe around you. That’s why you appeared as my wolf. To stay close to me. You don’t have to hide yourself from me, Mother.” My heartfelt lighter, instantaneously. It was the first word. I used that endearing term ‘mother’. A wave of joy washed all over me. T

DamonI sneered at her, and she stood in front of me. Previously, even though I used to be mesmerized by her magnetic beauty and crystal-clear skin. Her radiance used to glow all around. My heart never belonged to her. This was a resolution I had known for a while. Yet, I always had a soft spot for her. However, looking at her now. I felt nothing but dismay and regret.“What do you mean by you know a secret of mine?” I snapped. She had a smirk on her face, with a cheeky smile. That sinister look, sent shivers through my spine. Still, I managed to remain unfazed and unbothered.“You think you’re slick, right? You know exactly what I mean. Now, you want to be her knight in shining armor. I wonder how she’ll feel when she finds out the whole truth about you. I don’t think she will be able to forgive you,” her words caught deep. I clenched my hands, and casually stepped towards her. She was taken aback, but immediately regained herself as soon as the bodyguards marched towards the door.“

Marcus“My father? What do you know about him, Marcus?” Aurora’s face turned serious. I felt a lump in my throat, I felt all the stares all focused on me. I felt a wave of anxiety wash over me. This was a well-kept secret, as I never imagined anything would move me to reveal something so significant that could change the lives of the parties concerned.However, from the befuddled facial expression of Aurora. I knew I owed her, the truth of her family heritage. Regardless of the outcome of this revelation. On behalf of her mother, she deserves every right to know.I took a deep sigh before proceeding with the important conversation that everyone was pining to hear.“Firstly, I feel the need to start from the beginning. Your mother’s name was Maria. She was initially the Luna of Silverfang pack. She eventually left, when there were failed attempts by her family to oust her from the throne. Trying to keep the peace and sanity of her pack. She came to my pack to hide. It was during this t

Nikolas POVThe whole department gasped in awe as the mother walked passed them angrily before heading to the elevator. She shoved one of the new interns who held some documents to be signed. It fell all over the floor, while the girl tripped. “Someone should please help her out,” I asked calmly. It was heart-warming to see other colleagues helping her pick up all of them and helping her to her feet.“It’s nice to know people still care.” I thought to myself as I nodded to them in gratitude. Immediately, I entered the HR room to see Richard wiping sweat beading on his forehead. His white shirt was also drenched. His eyes lit up with fear as he met the dark gaze of mine. “Good morning Richard, I can see you’ve been very busy today,” I said with a sinister smile on my face. His face turned pale. “Good morning…no, actually, I was only listening to Madam Irene as a shareholder, I would never sack an employee without probable cause.” He hesitantly replied. His hands were all sweaty as h

Irene POVWhen I got home later in the evening, I met the butler at the mansion's doorway. He had a respectable smile and slightly bowed to me.“Welcome back, Mrs. Wood,” He said in a calm tone. I huffed as I walked past him. “ What’s good about this evening, Walter?” I snarled at him. The sky was pitch black as no stars were visible that night. The air became thicker as I climbed up the stairs. One of the domestic staff dressed in a white and black uniform stood at the entrance of my door with a well-polished silver tray and a glass of orange juice. She nervously averted my gaze as her hands slowly trembled while holding it.I gestured for her to return it to the kitchen as I slammed my huge bedroom doors behind me. I could sense a headache coming up as I sat on the sofa close to my bed. I gently massaged my temples with my fingers as I slumped on the sofa.Not long after I sat down, I heard a gentle tap on my door. Before I could respond, the doors swung open, revealing Celeste in

Irene POVI heard a loud thud at the door. It startled me briefly. However, I snapped out my daze, seconds later I heard footsteps thumping angrily approaching the hallway. It felt like a huge elephant passing through.My bedroom door was slightly open as I looked in that direction with anticipation. Moments later, I saw the figure of Caleb walking past my room huffing. Surprisingly, he didn't stop to greet me, which was very unusual. No matter how late he got home, he always greeted me before proceeding to his room.“Caleb, is that you?” I called out. I listened keenly as his footsteps receded. He knocked on my door gently as he entered.“Good evening Mother-” he greeted in a calm voice. I nodded in approval as he sat down on a chair close to my large-size bed.“My apologies…I was deep in thoughts.” He said in a gentle tone. A wave of joy washed over me.“For a moment, I thought you forgot about me.” I said in a sarcastic voice. His eyes widened in shock.“Of course not Mother, that

Rainora POVWe arrived at my apartment building forty-five minutes later. The ride was quiet and awkward as no one would give in. Nikolas casually glanced at me while driving, letting out a ‘hmph’ sound. I pressed my lips in protest and feigned ignorance of his exasperation.“Goodnight, Mr.Woods-” I snapped quickly at him and stepped out of his car. He had a cold glint in his eyes as he watched my retreating figure.I clenched my bag angrily as I approached the ground floor of my building. I forced a smile as I greeted the doorman and headed into the lift. Just as I pressed the button to the floor leading to my house, a masculine fist stopped the motion of the sliding doors midway. I looked up to see Nikolas grinning as he also stepped into the elevator. My heart beat raced quickly as he stood right in front of me, his piercing gaze ran through my body as the elevator closed. Like he could see my soul. I wiped the sweat beading on my forehead as he continued to stare at me with a smu

Rainora Nikolas’ eyes darkened as he gazed at me and Caleb returning to the office. I felt a lump in my throat. A feeling of guilt washed over me. Instinctively, I stylishly moved inches away from Caleb. The aura in the room thickened as it tensed up. Low-tone whispers were hurling around the lobby. Everyone watched in anticipation, like watching a scene out of a movie. Sensing the weird atmosphere, Caleb cleared his throat to ease tension. “Cough..Fancy seeing you here, brother.” Caleb forced a smile on his face. Nikolas remained unfazed. “I was just about to ask you the same question, little brother.” Nikolas has a smirk on his face. Caleb clenched his fist. He quirked his lips in an attempt to utter something, but at the last minute changed his mind. Moments later, he took a deep sigh and replied. “ I had a private discussion with Aurora about some sensitive issues.” Caleb had a smug look on his face, I sensed he was trying to taunt Nikolas, which was working. Nikolas’s demeano

Caleb“Let me tell you how to go about it-” Celeste leaned towards me covertly and whispered some words in my ear. I gasped at the ingenuity of her plan. However, a wave of optimism washed over me as the likelihood that this plan could work seemed very high.“I know I can make her fall in love with me,” I mumbled to myself in vigor. I had a grin on my face. Celeste had a mischievous smile on her face as she met her gaze.I waited several days for the tension to quiet down. I dressed up in a navy-blue tailored suit. It accentuated my broad frame perfectly. I quickly put on my gold-plated watch and leather shoes on the way to the office.This time, I arrived a few hours after the workers had commenced their daily duties. I aimed to avoid any further attention that would alert Rainora.I entered the office discreetly and signaled the receptionists not to inform her of my arrival.It was easy to confirm my details with the security personnel as I was among the executive members of the boa
