Present Day
Kaia’s POV
“Darling….are you okay?”
The sound of my mate’s voice helped in controlling the fire that stirred within me but it still burned with rage. I decided on my path since retrieving all of my memories; all of my real memories. The audacity of my father to make us believe he was the good guy. He wasn’t the miserable widower he made himself out to be. I wonder if that is the reason behind why his wolf lies dormant in his soul. By the grace of the Goddess, he managed to steer off attacks with his own inhuman strength in human form but his wolf refuses to aide him when he lost his mate. They lost their love for each other as people but their wolves craved and ached for each other no matter the circumstance.
That is why he is considered disabled
Elios’s POVKaia sighed heavily as she sat on my bed and buried her face in her hands with her elbows on her knees. I can tell from the way her shoulders slumped over that she was exhausted. This entire week has been quite traumatic to say the least. My sisters get all of their memories back, we found out that we lost a brother and I found out my dad murdered my mom. On top of that, Astrid is dealing with a loss and a traumatic experience of her own. I’m only glad I was able to be there for her.“Kaia, I promise you that I’m okay. You don’t need to keep watch like I’m a patient in a psyche ward” I told her and sat next to her.Kaia chuckled and looked up from her hands. Despite being asleep for three days, the bags under her eyes were prominent and she looked like she aged 5 more years in the short amo
Kaia’s POVOf all the ways I could be spending my morning, this wasn’t what I had in mind. I have been persuaded to come to this small dinner in the middle of town to share a table with Ren, Blaire and fucking Alec. I understand that Alec and Ren are best friends and Alec is more than likely going to be Bastian’s successor but I hate what he did to Blaire. What I hate more is the fact that I couldn’t run and support her because of my dad’s constant threats but this demon crossed a line with my best friend and if it’s forgiveness he is looking for, he’s going to try harder than pancakes and hash browns.I sat beside Ren at the table but I was conveniently placed in front of Alec who is trying exceptionally hard to avoid my gaze. I kept my arms crossed over my chest and narrowed my eyes at him.“Ka
Aldric’s POV“Do you think we’re stupid?”“Do you think we’re retarded?”“Did you think we would never find out?”I’ve said those exact words to my daughters more times than I can count. The fear in their eyes when I would advance on them whenever they would defy me would bring such joy to my distant wolf. Anything relating to Bellatrix brought blood thirsty rage and only when my beautiful daughters would do anything out of line is the only time I can feel him again.My human soul is in a constant battle with itself. Wanting to please my dormant wolf but also trying to keep my humanity. When did I become this way? When did bringing pain to my flesh and blood bring me happiness? When did puttin
11 years ago...Aziel's POVMy patience with my sisters is wearing thin. Ever since they found out that Bellatrix is pregnant again, they have been focusing on how to spoil their newest sister. No one even knows for sure that this child will be a girl or a boy but with our father's luck with Bellatrix, they assumed it was a girl.Another girl to overthrow me in the battle of the sexes. But they have months to prepare for the bay's arrival, they only get to see me every other weekend and instead of spending time with me, they chose to go through baby magazines and circle things for the unborn brat."Oh my god Kaia look at how adorable!" Saige gushed excitedly as she pointed on an item in a magazine.
Present DayKaia's POV"We really need to stop meeting each other like this" Ares gave me a half smile with his words as he met me at my dad's door. His green eyes held sympathy and sadness when he saw me, Saige, Ren and Elijah approaching.My heart is heavy but the tears weren't coming like I thought they would. Getting the call about my dad's murder this morning stabbed at my soul. My dad abused me so badly and betrayed my mom and Aziel; I thought, in my worst thoughts, that I would rejoicing in his passing. That I was finally free. But he is still my dad and even though that shouldn't account for much because of how he turned out to be but because of him, I'm here. Because of him, I have Saige and Elios and I had Aziel.My dad turned into a monster over his last years and a part of me wants to mourn for him but the majority of me doesn't care to. I want to dance on his grave and break his tombstone like he has do
***THIS CHAPTER HAS SEXUAL CONTENT***The room acted like a beating heart was bring ripped out of someone’s chest. One moment commotion and the next silent and still. I knew The Council to be people of ethics and obedient to the law but never did I think them to be this heartless. Yes, Aziel murdered our father but he is the victim here. He didn’t asked to be born, Ophelia wanted him to be. He wouldn’t have existed without the help of our father. He was taken away at 15 by this mysterious grandfather of his and was brainwashed to believe that we didn’t love him. Goddess only knows the troubles and tribulations he went through as he was raised with Cassius.Abused? Neglected? What sick person would think it’s okay to make someone think that the only living people he has a connection to never loved them to begin with? But then again, Saige said he
***THIS CHAPTER HAS SEXUAL CONTENT***Saige’s POVI can’t believe this. This can’t be true can it? This is the worst nightmare I’ve had in months. I know Aziel is upset at us but why take it out on Elios? He’s truly the most innocent one among us. I’m certain that once I open my eyes, I’ll see his beautiful face right next to me. He didn’t get taken away from us. He’s right here. I outstretched my arm in search of his small body. My heart perked up when my hand grabbed onto a small wrist but I couldn’t stop my disappointment when I opened my eyes to find Kaia sleeping beside me in Elios’s bed.I can see the streaks of dried tears on her face and the dark circles under her eyes. It would be best not to wake her now. She’s barely getting enough sleep as it i
Elios’s POVHow long has it been? Days? Weeks? With the lack of windows, it’s hard to tell when a new day has started and ended. The only way I can tell that time passes if when a servant comes and serves Aziel a large platter of food and only throws us three pieces of bread and half a cup of water throughout the day.The small amount of food and water isn’t enough to help my healing especially since I don’t have a wolf yet. I can only rely on my Lycan blood to fight against the scorching feel of the silver on my wrists and ankles. The metallic mixed with flesh burning stench was all anyone could smell when entering here. With my silver chains, Jax restricted by the blessed chains and Astrid being held captive with iron I’m sure that the atmosphere is more than unpleasant.Speaking of un-pleasantries, Aziel has sa
