Aria’s POV

Jade sat on the white floor with a sigh. “Okay, where do I begin?” she murmured to herself.

“From the beginning,” I replied, folding my arms.

She scratched her head. “Well, which beginning? Mine? Or–”

I interrupted her impatiently. “From the beginning of everything, Jade. Stop stalling, and start speaking.”

Jade rolled her eyes. “Okay, fine.

She looked away for a moment before she finally met my gaze. “I’ve been here, in your subconscious, for a long time, Aria. Just like Rhea. But unlike her, I was… asleep.”

I frowned, processing her words. “What do you mean?”

“I don’t know how I got here. I don’t know why I exist inside you,” she admitted. “But for as long as I can remember, I’ve been stuck here in a deep sleep. I could hear things happening around you, but I couldn’t do anything. Not until something woke me up.”

“What woke you up?” I inquired.

Jade shook her head. “I don’t know, and I know that it wasn’t just random—I’m sure of that. One day, I just… woke up.” She hesitat

    Aria’s POV“How is she feeling that way? What's making her feel that way?”Jade’s voice softened. “This matter with Astrid and Knox is making her feel like she’s losing Knox, like she's losing her mate all over again.”I squeezed my eyes shut.“Your pregnancy hormones aren’t helping either,” Jade continued. “Your emotions are all over the place, and it’s making Rhea’s pain worse. You’re hurting, and she’s feeling it ten times over, because it's reminding her too much of Liam's rejection caused by a beta's daughter, though this time it's a beta's sister.”Rhea whimpered in pain again, and my heart clenched as I looked down at her, “So she’s… reliving it?” I whispered, my throat tight. “The rejection?”Jade sighed, crossing her arms. “Not exactly. But it feels the same to her. She lost one mate because of a beta’s daughter, and now, she thinks she’s losing another because of a beta’s sister.”I swallowed hard, and my hands shook as I stroked Rhea’s fur. “But that’s not true. Knox isn’t l

    Aria’s POVI could hear Knox’s voice as he discussed with Healer Felicia with a low voice, so I kept my eyes closed.“Do you think it’s just because of the pregnancy?” Knox asked with a concerned voice, “Because it felt a whole lot more than that. Before she passed out, she was acting completely different. I have never seen her like that before.”“I understand what you’re trying to say, Alpha,” Felicia said, “But trust me, these hormones can change someone’s personality totally, especially in....unmarked females.” She said reluctantly.Knox cleared his throat uncomfortably. “Oh,” he said simply.There was an awkward silence, before Felicia broke it. “But, may I ask why you haven’t–”“No,” Knox said coldly, “You may not ask.”Another voice spoke up. “Calm down, Alpha. You know that she means no harm, she’s just being curious.”My eyes flew open instantly. It was Astrid. She was here, in the hospital room with Knox.I clenched my fist, as annoyance surged through me.Jade’s voice echoed

    Aria’s POVI put on the large hoodie, making sure it kept my face hidden.“So, why do you want me to go there? Do you want to heal him?” I asked.‘Something like that,’ Jade replied vaguely.“How do you do it?” I asked, sitting on the bench, to put on the sneakers.‘Do what?’ she asked.“The healing stuff,” I clarified, tying the laces. “It’s something I can’t find an explanation for.”There was silence, and I paused. She wasn’t going to answer.However, she sighed. ‘I don’t even know. I just knew that I could do it, and just like that, I did it.’I frowned. “You don’t know?”‘I know it doesn’t sound convincing, but that’s the truth. There are so many things I can’t even begin to explain about myself or what I can do.’I ran a hand through my hair, shaking my head in exasperation. “I want to believe you, Jade. I really do.” I sighed.I sneaked out of the storage room where I had borrowed (stolen) some clothes and walked through the clinic hallways, keeping my head down under the hoodie

    Pain.It slammed into me like a wave. It crashed through my body, and I clenched my jaw, trying to endure it.But this pain felt so different, as though it wasn't coming from me.“Jade,” I whimpered, gasping for air. “I think I can feel his pain.”‘What?!’ Jade sounded panicked. ‘What the hell? That’s not supposed to happen!’My chest tightened even further. I could feel every ache and suffering that the man had been enduring—his sickness, his exhaustion, everything was pouring into me.I squeezed my eyes shut, “J-Jade,” I gasped out, my voice shaking. “What do I do?”‘I don’t know!’ she snapped, sounding frantic. ‘I don’t understand what’s happening. Let go, before something bad happens.’However, I didn't want to. Maybe there was something I could do.‘Aria, let go now!’ Jade yelled.I didn't let go. I was looking for something.‘Aria, you will kill yourself, is that what you want?!’ She yelled.I could feel something. I could feel it, I just needed to reach further.‘Aria!’ Jade's v

    Aria's POV“I'm really sorry for everything, Aria?” Knox murmured softly.I kept my eyes on him. “What are you sorry for?” I asked.“Everything,” he replied.I shook my head. “No, you have to be specific.”Knox paused for a moment, then he nodded. “I’m sorry for not telling you about Astrid before. I should have. I didn’t think it mattered, but I see now that it did.”I swallowed, my throat was still dry, but I didn't care about water now. “And?”His grip on my waist tightened slightly. “I’m sorry for dismissing your feelings, for making you feel like you were overreacting when you weren’t. I know that I would have reacted worse than that.”I looked away from his earnest eyes. I wanted to believe him, but a part of me still felt hurt and betrayed. “And?”Knox bit his lips. “I'm sorry for making you feel like you needed to compete for my attention, when I'm already yours. I never meant to do that.”He sighed, his voice softening even more. “I’m sorry for leaving you here. I shouldn't ha

    Aria's POVMy furrow deepened as I got even more confused. “What?” I asked. I didn't remember any of that happening.“You were crying and writhing on the bed, like you were in a lot of pain. I tried waking you up, but you wouldn't wake up no matter how I called or shook you. It was so scary. I called Felicia, she’s on her way.”I stared at Knox, my heart pounding in my chest. “But, I… I don’t remember any of that.”Knox pulled back slightly to look at me. His eyebrows were furrowed in concern. “What do you mean?”I shook my head, still trying to process what he was saying. “I remember falling asleep. I remember feeling exhausted, but nothing else. I didn’t feel any pain. At least… I don’t think I did.”Knox’s grip on me tightened. “Aria, you were crying. You kept saying it hurt everywhere—your chest, your head, your whole body. I tried everything to wake you up, but you wouldn’t respond.”I opened my mouth, but I didn’t know what to say.None of this made sense.The door opened, and we

    Aria’s POV“What?”Knox frowned slightly. “Jade? Who is she?”I blinked, still in shock. “Where did you hear that name?”His frown deepened slightly. “When you were screaming and writhing in pain, you were muttering her name,” he replied.I racked my brain as I tried to remember what would have made me call her name, but I came up blank. The only thing I could remember was that darkness, and the feeling that something was wrong, but nothing else. I would ask Jade later what was going on.Knox must have been getting suspicious because of my reaction, and lack of response, because his gaze sharpened. “Aria? What’s going on? You’re acting weird,” he commented.I still didn't respond, as my mind raced. How was I going to tell him about a voice in my head? How was I going to tell him other things concerning the voice?‘Don’t even dare it.’ Jade hissed, and I almost flinched at the harshness of her voice.I couldn’t reply to her, because of Knox.‘Do you know how many things could go wrong i

    Aria’s POVImmediately Knox heard my voice, he whirled around with concern in his eyes. I ignored the looks that others were giving me, and kept my eyes on him.His brows furrowed as he quickly made his way back to me. He looked tense. “Aria, are you okay?” he murmured, and his hands immediately started scanning my arms, my shoulders, my face, to check for any signs of harm.I started to nod at first, then I shook my head. “No, Knox, I… I am not.” I admitted softly. “I…I have something to tell you.” I muttered.His frown deepened as he watched me. I avoided his eyes, turning away. “Please come inside,” I said quietly, even as my heart pounded.Even as I spoke, my throat felt tight. Fear clawed at me. I was scared of how he would react, and I was scared of what this conversation would mean for us.Knox hesitated only for a moment before he nodded, and followed me inside, locking the door behind him. A strange shiver ran down my spine. There was no turning back now.I took a deep breath,

    Knox's POVIt was the worst feeling ever.That feeling of losing control, while you watch yourself doing pure evil.I could still feel it, the feeling of her flesh against my claws, and the warmth of her blood. I could still feel the horror in my bones when I realized it was her. Aria. My mate. My everything.And I hurt her.Fenrir roared inside me in pain, just as shattered and broken as I was. We were both drowning in guilt and rage. Rage at ourselves for what we had done to our mate. So we turned that rage outward.We tore through the vampires like savages, allowing our rage to take over as we decimated them. It was easier to rip them apart than face what we had done. It was easier to destroy them than think about the way Aria had cried out in pain because of us.No matter how much I tried to think, I didn’t know how it happened. One moment, we were all over each other, lost in passion. I was about to mark her. My fangs were hovering just above her skin…And then something snapped.

    Aria's POVThe stranger was pale, tall, with red eyes. My heart dropped into my stomach.A vampire.Cornelius struggled against his grip, “I…I did…what you t…told me to…”My heart pounded in my chest as I realized that Cornelius and the vampire were working together. How?I clutched my belly tightly, as I struggled to breathe. My throat burned as I took in air.‘Please,’ I prayed silently to the moon goddess, ‘Please let my baby be okay. Please.’The vampire tilted his head, looking almost thoughtful as he glanced between Cornelius and I, then he nodded and released Cornelius.“Yes,” the vampire said smoothly, with a deep, cool voice, “Yes, you did everything.”My vision was turning dark. I was losing consciousness, no matter how much I fought to stay awake.Cornelius sighed in relief, holding his throat. He opened his mouth to speak, but the vampire raised a hand fluidly, cutting him off.“But you also did what you weren't told to.” The vampire added.Cornelius gaped. “Wha—”“Lord Vi

    Aria's POVTrigger Warning!!! A Lot Of Violence Ahead!!!The vampire lunged. I screamed, throwing my arms up to shield myself. My mind kept screaming one thing over and over again.My baby. My baby. My baby.I braced for the pain, wishing I could tell Knox that I loved him no matter what.But the pain never came.Instead, a loud crash echoed through the hall as something massive slammed into the vampire with brutal force, throwing him against the wall so hard it cracked.I blinked in shock as the vampire released a cry of pain, with fear in his eyes.A creature with black fur and dancing shadows around its fur stood between me and the vampire with crimson eyes that were so familiar that my eyes welled up with tears.Fenrir.He released a deep growl. I could feel the vibration from the ground beneath me. The shadows danced around his large frame like a storm. He stood tall over everything, looking more like a demon than a wolf.The vampire staggered to his feet, snarling at him. But Fe

    Aria's POVPain surged through my body with every movement, and my blood left a trail behind me as I stumbled through the hallways. My vision blurred as I walked, and every breath I took burned my throat.I just needed to get to the clinic. Everything would be fine.Suddenly, a loud boom echoed through the halls, followed by screaming. The floor trembled under me.What the hell?My heartbeat increased in panic. I limped faster.Then I heard the sounds of growls, snarls, and more screams. They were getting closer now.My breath hitched as I perceived a scent that I had never smelled before, but I knew what it was. Blood. Death. Vampires.A door nearby slammed open, and a young pack member burst out, her eyes wide with terror. She came to a stop the moment she saw me.“L-Luna!” she gasped, rushing toward me.I tried to wave her off, but she reached for me anyway to steady me. “You’re bleeding so much, we need to—”“There’s no time,” I rasped, holding her arm. “You need to run.

    Aria’s POV“No, I’m not running away,” I muttered, turning back.‘You’re a fool!’ Jade roared in my head, her voice was filled with frustration and panic. ‘You’re bleeding out, and you're choosing this?!’“Maybe,” I whispered, my voice shook, and my throat felt raw. “But I’m not leaving him.”Jade snapped, ‘And how do you think you’re going to help him?! Huh?! With what, exactly?! Love and prayers?’I opened my mouth to answer… but nothing came out.I didn’t know what I could do, that was the truth, but all I knew was that he needed me.But it was Rhea who answered.Her voice was soft but firm. ‘Mate needs us.’That was her only response. Jade groaned. “Please kill me.”I took another step towards Knox, then another. My body felt weak from the blood loss, but I didn't stop.Knox was still on his knees, groaning, and shaking violently. His eyes were still changing colours as he fought for control. The black veins were stretched throughout this body now.“Knox,” I whispered.No response

    Aria’s POV“K…K..nox?” I stammered, trying to inch away, but that was impossible as he had me pinned to the bed.He snarled at me, his eyes were changing colour. They were not the shade of red that I was familiar with. It was like an odd mixture of dark red and black.“F..Fen..Fenrir?”He released a menacing growl, and lifted his hand. I gasped in horror as I watched his hands and fingers change into claws.I quickly brought my knee up, successfully slamming it between his legs.Knox cried out in pain, and I used that split second to scramble out from beneath him, shifting to the other end of the bed.He recovered fast, snarling at me with pure hatred. I watched his canines elongate, and saliva dripped down his mouth.“K…K-Knox?” I stammered again even though I knew that it wasn’t Knox looking back at me, or even Fenrir. That thing was not my mate.‘Mate,’ Rhea's voice whimpered in my head, but I ignored it. I needed to focus, to get out of here alive.I kept my eyes on him. He was st

    Aria’s POV“I have to be honest with you, Aria. I was very reluctant. Even when I remembered, I pretended not to.” Knox said softly, staring into my eyes.My heart clenched in my chest as his words. “Why?” I asked, trying to keep my voice from breaking. I had also remembered, but there had been so many things coming up that had stopped me from asking him about it.“Because I was scared. I felt like I would be tying you down, when you didn’t really know the kind of person I really was. I…” he trailed off with a sigh.I waited patiently for him to talk, ignoring the burning ache in my lower regions.“I…I thought you might want to leave me if you found out the horrible things I have done.” he said, averting his eyes from mine.I raised my hand and held his face, feeling his stubble against my palm, making him look back at me. “And now?” I asked softly.He smiled, his eyes glinted with love. “Now? Now I know that I was very stupid to think that.”My lips twitched, “And what are you going

    Aria’s POVI was almost skipping as we finally walked back to our quarters. It was almost impossible to control the wide grin on my face as I hummed in bliss.“Can you stop doing that?” Knox asked with exasperation in his voice.My grin widened. “I can’t help it! My plan worked more than I actually expected it to!” I exclaimed.Knox let out a sigh of exasperation, but his lips twitched slightly.“Come on, don’t tell me that you’re not happy about what happened out there!” I threw my hands up, almost smacking Knox’s face.He gently pushed my hand away, “It's not a big deal, Aria.”I gaped, my eyes widened in disbelief. “Not a big deal?! Seriously?! Not only did the children get comfortable with you, but did you see the look on their parents’ faces when they saw you seated on the ground, playing chess with their children?”He shrugged, trying to look nonchalant, but I knew it was just an act. After our discussion in his office about Viktor and his mate, Knox had been tense and distant.

    Aria’s POVAs we walked through the hallway, a few pack members walked past us, bowing their heads in greeting.“Alpha, Luna,” one of them greeted with a polite nod.I smiled warmly. “Good evening.”Knox said nothing.I elbowed him after the pack member left. “Knox,” I mumbled under my breath. “You should have said something.”He grunted.I sighed. “At least nod?”He scowled at me, before turning to the next person we passed. His nod was so stiff that it looked painful.I rolled my eyes. “And maybe try smiling?”Knox scoffed. “I don’t feel like smiling at people, Aria.”“Well, you have to.”Another pack member greeted us. I smiled as I replied in greeting. Knox lifted his lips slightly. It looked less like a smile and more like a grimace.I blinked. “What was that?”“A smile,” he said flatly.I stared at him, then shook my head. “No, that was terrifying.”He shrugged. “That’s the best I can do.”I groaned in exasperation. “You’re hopeless.”He smirked, clearly pleased with himself for
