Princess Katie Anne

~<>~

My twin brother has always been afraid of the dark. To be honest, I couldn't recall when that fear began, but I knew it had something to do with Larisa—the crazy woman who almost tore our family apart. The details are blurry in my mind, but I remember that she kidnapped Kyle at some point, and even though my parents lied to me about Kyle’s whereabouts, as I grew up, I realized the truth. However, Kyle and I never spoke about that day, despite how many times he had been haunted in his sleep.

Our parents don't know about Kyle’s nightmares because he didn't want them to worry, but I knew, and that’s the reason I wasn’t surprised that Davien found Kyle in my bed that morning.

What surprised me was finding Kyle in the darkness that his room had become. I was the dark princess with a dark-themed room, while Kyle made sure his room had enough space and light. So this was new.

And so was the strong smell of alcohol that invaded my nostrils as I stepped into my brother’

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 27: Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV (5)

    Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV~~ Anger wasn’t the first emotion that I thought I would feel when Katie finally used her hidden abilities; neither did I think disappointment would be my second emotion in this situation. Heck! I should be happy right now and celebrating with my sister, but how could she read my thoughts when she knew I always dropped my guard around her? Before now, she was the only normal person in my family, but I guess unlocking her powers meant she would no longer be like me—the plain normal one.I was alone.“Will you just stop it? You aren’t alone, Kyle. I will always be here for you and with you.” Katie countered, doing the same thing again. “What part of Leave Me Alone did you not hear?” I spat, unable to control my emotions, which had been spiraling since I perceived Camila as my mate in the library. ”If you are going to invade my mind, please leave. I don’t have the strength to put up a wall right now.”At this point, living within these walls and with these pe

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 28: A Happier Man

    DAVIEN~~“You are a long way from home.”The former Beta of my birth pack, Louis, who, despite living away from home for over a decade, remains a legend. Stories about him and Alpha Tristan have been told over and over again, and I have seen my dad trying so hard to fit into the enormous shoes that this duo left behind.To the rest of the realm, Alpha Tristan was the villain who stood with the witch Larisa, and Beta Louis was a betrayal, but somehow, the people of Black Fur had moved past that and have come to respect them, especially Beta Louis, because he restored our home and dignity and gave up control of the pack so we could start afresh.Maybe he wouldn’t have done that if he knew that the so-called fresh start would be my dad—I mean, he was lacking in so many ways, and someday, the rest of the realm would know this fact.“You’ve been away from home for many years.” I countered as Louis and I walked toward the shade in the arena.For hours, he had been showing me how to find m

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 29: Start Over

    Princess Katie Anne~~My heart went out to Kyle, and I knew it wouldn’t be easy to stay away from Camila, but I also knew Kyle would do everything to make sure he did. This was me helping him and also getting my way. No one said I couldn’t kill two birds with one stone. I have done that many times in the past. “So this is it.” I chimed with a smile, knowing that Davien and Kyle were anxiously waiting to hear me out. The suspense was killing them, but I was enjoying this. “I have come to understand that you both need each other and the good news I have is to help you both bond better–” “Why do I have to bond with him?” Davien was quick to mutter, looking down at me. I mean that literally because he was taller than me.I made use of my famous pout that had worked on all the men in my life, starting with my dad and ending with Kennedy. “Because he is my brother, Davien.” Davien stared at me for the longest minute before he sighed defeatedly. “Fine.” The power of my pout. I didn’t

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 30: Alpha Prince Kyle's POV (6)

    Alpha Prince Kyle ~~Oh, dear goddess!Shopping?What was he? An attention-seeking princess? Even if he were, I still wouldn’t go shopping with him. He should ask Katie and Elora–I ceased thinking in that minute as my eyes fell on Katie’s pale face. I didn’t need to be a mind reader to know she was thinking about how I would reject her mate without thinking twice. After all, she knew that I wouldn’t go shopping with anyone. My clothes and shoes get delivered to my room after I place orders online, and most likely, Ma does the shopping for me. I was a proud mama’s boy.But in that instant, I knew I couldn’t ruin this for Katie. I wouldn’t want to make her worry about me after I shut her mate down just because he mentioned shopping. “Goddess, I hate this.” Rio clamored, protesting within me as soon as he felt one of my core resolves faltering. I said to my wolf, my gaze shifting from Katie’s pale face to Davien’s bright one—he was so clueless, “I hate this too, but look at those

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 31: Alpha Prince Kyle's POV (7)

    ALPHA PRINCE KYLE~~“Alpha Prince Kyle!” It wasn’t until her words hit my eardrums that I realized that I should have insisted on taking one of the cars that had been sitting in our garage for years. We rarely use them, but this would have been a good time to just drive right past Camila, who was already running over to me with a very familiar young boy right behind her.He was like her guard, and maybe I would have felt jealousy if the young boy wasn’t my brother, Ronald. He and Camila are friends even though she was a year younger than she was. I never understood how Camila and Ronald managed to bond despite their differences. Ronald liked playing on the field, and I had never seen him read a book if it wasn’t made compulsory in his academy. But somehow, they found a way to be friends. “Hello, brother.” Ronald nodded curtly, and I knew he was about to tell me not to take Camila away so he could run around with her. “Can you please not talk about books right now? I want my frie

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 32: Past the Past

    DAVIEN~~“Reading books about someone or studying books written by the same person doesn't necessarily mean you know the person.”I thought to myself as I watched Alpha Prince Kyle after he yelled at Camila, who seemed cheerful. I could tell she had a tiny crush on him, and I couldn't blame her because he was smart and gorgeous, even for a man. Plus, he was the first Royal Prince and would most likely be the next King of the realm if the council of Alphas concluded that the king's position could be hereditary. He was what every young woman in the realm wanted. That was understandable, but what I didn't understand was why the supposed-to-be cool prince of the realm was being an ass to a young fan. “The Kyle I know wouldn't do that to Camila. He adores her.” Dolf said to me. “He must be struggling with something. Has to be why Katie wanted you to hang out with him.” Hmm. I didn't know if that meant Katie trusted me, but I was willing to help Alpha Prince Kyle if I had to. We kept

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 33: A Superhero

    Princess Katie Anne~~“I’m exhausted…” Zuri cried out within me.I could really understand her claims. My whole body felt like jelly, and I felt like I would fall on my face any minute now. After Kyle and Davien left, I tried to get enough rest, but before I knew it, Auntie Susanna called me, telling me it was time for our evening training.I left home immediately, and I had been training for the past few hours. Auntie Susanna didn't go easy on me, especially when she found out that I had been able to read thoughts.“We can't have you poking into people's thoughts, can we?” Auntie Susanna had said to me as she taught me how to control my new ability.It was difficult.And when I tried to give up on training, Auntie Susanna laughed at me and said, “Now you will understand your mom more, Katie. You will see that each time she reads your thoughts, it is simply a moment of rest for her because she always has a wall up. She holds that wall up all day and all night.”This wall that she m

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   Chapter 35: Seed of Doubt

    Princess Katie Anne~~I checked everywhere for Kyle and Davien, but I could not find them. I started my search from Kyle’s room and then my room, just in case Davien was back, but they weren't there.Sometimes, I can't believe the size of our home. I remember getting lost a couple of times after we moved in.“He is in the guest room downstairs,” Zoe voiced grumpily.I asked, dragging my tired self towards the stairs, “Who is?”“Your mate.” Again, Zoe answered grumpily, obviously trying to piss me off.“For how long have you known that?” I asked Zoe because I could perceive her conviction.“Since we got back from training. I perceived him downstairs and traced his scent to the guest room,” Zoe answered nonchalantly.“And you didn't think to mention it? You know I have been searching everywhere for him.” I seethed at Zoe, unable to hold back my anger. “You know how tired I am, yet you pull this? What's wrong with you, Zoe?”“You can yell at me all you want, Katie, but you didn't ask

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   92: All Alone

    DAVIEN~~Disrespect from my family members was one thing, but getting the same from Cole, a man who was after my mate, was a whole different game, and my ego just wouldn’t have that. It was more than raging to think about Cole in the same space as Katie alone.Hell, it was a miracle that I didn’t go after Cole the second Katie told me about his visit. By miracle, I mean Katie’s reassuring words and magic touch. She calmed me down.But unfortunately for Cole, Katie wasn’t around to save him now, and the group of ladies around us just weren’t strong enough to get me off him—if they even cared.“My mate is off-limits!” I seethed, raising my tightly balled fist and forcing it down with a force that burst Cole’s lip on impact.Cole tried to fight back, but my second hand was holding him against the wet patio, and with Dolf’s strength pumping through my veins, he was no match for me.Cole proved to be the sneaky bastard we all knew him to be when he chose another method to fight me. He c

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   91: Flame of Rage

    DAVIEN~~Having that talk with Katie made me realize that the path I was supposed to walk was already in front of me. Or maybe I knew it was there, and I was just doubting whether I wanted to walk that path.But with Katie’s words and the fire I saw in her eyes when she told me she was willing to become the Luna of my birth pack, give up staying with her family, and stay here with me, I knew what I wanted for myself. For us.Not only did I get a clearer vision, but the path before me also became clearer.“We have to become the Alpha of Black Fur Pack and Katie the Luna,” Dolf said within me as I walked through the corridors the very next morning after planning how to beat my family in their selfish games, with the smart-ass woman that the goddess decided to bless me with.My wolf’s words were meant to be a reminder, even though he knew I didn’t forget that I had made up my mind to stand against my family for the first time in my life.I would become Alpha, and the plan to achieve t

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   90. A Solid Plan

    Princess Katie Anne~~Davien stared back at me like I had lost my mind, but soon, realization began to glint in his eyes. He went from angry to conflicted, and that broke my heart because I could tell that his family had once again gotten to him.“Oh,” he muttered, his shoulders falling.I stretched my hands to him, and he took them, joining me on the bed. I opened my mind to Dolf, asking him to create a mental link between Davien and me, even though a part of me wanted to keep the realization I had after Cole left to myself so I could protect my mate.“No, we have to tell him,” Zuri encouraged me.Zoe did the same when she said, “Yes. If we have been dancing to their tunes, it’s high time we changed the tune to ours and made them dance. We can’t do that without Davien.”I could feel Dolf agreeing with my wolves as he created the link between Davien and me. I then smiled at my mate, cupping his face as I sent words through the link: “He was glad we hadn’t marked each other. If only

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   89: Heat of Rage

    DAVIEN~~A waste of time.That’s what I would call this meeting with my dad. For goddess’ sake, we have been here for what? Almost an hour, yet all he has done is look down on me and try to intimidate me. He was beating around the bush.Even a blind man could see that.I could feel regret in my bones because staying with Katie, who needed me, would have been a better and more efficient way to spend the hour than sitting here listening to my dad.“That’s it. I am leaving,” I blurted, cutting my dad’s statement short.He grumbled, “But I am not done. Sit down.”“Done what exactly?” I seethed, seeing shock flash through his eyes for the millionth time. I would be stupid not to realize that he suspected I had a wolf now. “Reminding me that I am your unloved son isn’t doing it for me. If you don’t want me here or need my help, just let me know, and I will be out of your hair.”Damn! I just needed him to let me in on the plan. I needed something tangible to tell those who had trusted me…

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   88: Made Just For Me

    Princess Katie Anne~~“Why won’t anyone answer their damn phones?” I gritted, resisting the urge to throw my cellphone against the wall.Before I left home, we agreed that my family members would be accessible and that they would call me at least once every day, but even though this was my second morning in Black Fur, that agreement seemed to mean nothing.“There’s no special occasion. No ceremony or ritual that could have kept them busy since yesterday. I am beginning to worry,” Zuri said to me.However, I was too angry to be worried. I felt like my mom was screwing me because she already knew I would discover the truths she had tried hard to hide from me during my stay in Black Fur. Hell, I am certain she knew why I was trying to reach her.“Are they ignoring the calls intentionally?” Zoe queried, her confusion mixing with Zuri’s. “That’s far-fetched, Katie. We might have to be patient and—”A sharp knock on the door disrupted Zoe’s statement.I made the mistake of assuming that t

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   87: Unconditional Love

    DAVIEN~~Seeing Cole last night at the welcome party confirmed that my parents were trying their best to rile me up. The party wasn’t enjoyable for either Katie or me, but we didn’t leave until it ended. While I spent the entire night thinking about when my dad would tell me why he asked me to come home, Katie spent it wondering why no one from Dark Moon was answering the countless calls she put through.I could feel her troubled mind as if it were mine, and it pained me that all I could do was hold her.“You should talk to Jade. Perhaps she might be able to shed more light—” Dolf started, but he cut himself off and sighed. “Never mind. What she needed was to speak to her parents. She needs answers that Jade or anyone else can’t provide.“I still have to have a word with Jade. She shouldn’t have accused Katie like she did yesterday,” I said to Dolf, even though I agreed with his conclusion.Looking down at Katie’s restless face, I made up my mind to keep her far away from Cole, who

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   86. A Good Sign?

    Princess Katie Anne~~“I won’t let them treat you like this.”I seethed as the tension around us thickened, even though the crowd was still cheering. Davien’s hold around my waist became tighter, and I knew he didn’t want me to lash out, but I had had enough of this.How could they treat him like he didn’t exist, even in a ceremony? Amber had a seat to herself, and so did Damien, who wouldn’t stop staring at me like the creep he was. His parents also dared to flash those false smiles my way, walking over to clearly show me to my seat.“Thank you for joining us, Princess Katie,” Alpha Jarrett uttered with a light voice, and cheers echoed through the hall as members of the Black Fur Pack jubilated.However, I wasn’t merry like the rest of them, and with every second that passed, it became harder to pretend.“Please sit, Princess.” As expected, Luna Cynthia pointed at the only empty seat on the higher platform in the hall.Zoe barked within me, “The audacity!”My wolf’s anger only fuel

    DAVIEN~~“That can’t be,” Katie whispered as she staggered into the bedroom, her face pale and hands trembling.I picked up the bag Jade had dropped, followed Katie into our bedroom, and locked the door behind me.“She really is dead?” She asked me, horror etched into her stormy blue eyes.I nodded, shocked that Katie didn’t know that Aunt Jessica had died thirteen years ago. My mate collapsed on the bed, and I knelt before her, holding her hand and telling her to breathe.“To protect Katie and Kyle, Aurelia hid the news of Jessica’s death from them. I also don’t know the full story, but I am at fault because of the part I played. Larisa might have pulled the trigger that killed Jessica, but I put her in the position to get killed for my selfish desires,” Dolf said to me, taking on the blame even though we all knew he had nothing to do with everything that went down thirteen years ago.“You mean it’s all Tristan’s fault. You can’t take the blame, Dolf, and it wasn’t right for Jade

  • Chasing His Betrayed Luna   84: The Perfect Dress

    Princess Katie Anne~~Davien and I woke up late in the afternoon. While Davien had more than enough reason to sleep for as long as we did, I didn’t have any because—“You have more than enough reasons, too, Katie. Have you forgotten what Davien did to you before you both slept?” Zoe asked before shoving explicit images of Davien fucking me into my mind as if I didn’t live that memory a few hours ago.I turned red and threw the covers over my face while Davien went to answer the door. Fortunately for whoever was at the door, Davien and I woke up before he or she could disrupt the peace we worked hard to achieve.I wouldn’t have forgiven the person at the door if they had woken Davien, regardless of the reason.“Hey, Jade. Why are you here?” The familiarity and affection in Davien’s voice didn’t go unnoticed.Zuri chimed through the mind link, “I thought he said he didn’t have a friend here? Who is Jade, and why does he smell as happy as he sounds?”Call me jealous, but I was out of
