Kaia's POV
Laying in my bed and never leaving is the best decision my defeated mind can come up with right now. Even if I wanted to get up, my body had molded itself in my mattress and the sheets held me hostage in my comfort. Blaire had gone home an hour ago after spending the whole weekend with us to make sure I was okay. She spent the first two hours of her awakening this morning attempting to lift my spirits enough for me just to eat some breakfast before she left for work.
I didn't want to eat, drink or think. I wanted to sleep. Maybe if I continue this long enough I can die in this bed and my dad could only nag me from the afterlife when he meets his end too. Saige and Blaire had sworn to secrecy not to tell a soul that my mate is human. They asked if I knew his name and I told them no. The minute I smelled him, all I can think about is all the ways my dad could blame me for being such a disgrace that the Moon Goddess gave me a human mate. He wou
The next few days, I have been a nervous wreck. After getting home with Elios in Ren's hoodie, Saige has been jumping off the walls in excitement for me. She's already trying to plan out what our kids' names could be and just the thought of having kids with Ren made my heart flip but we only just met. I had to calm her down several times and bring her back to reality with the help of Elijah. But one thing I do thank her for is pushing me to text him later that night; we eventually turned texting into talking over the phone and we were up until two in the morning which I regretted because I had to lead training at 6 in the morning.But a whole week has gone by and Ren had asked me out on a date tonight. Our relationship compared to how Saige and Elijah were is extremely slow paced; they were in bed within days of knowing each other and Ren and I have managed to give each other space which isn't something I wanted. I would often catch myself growing anxious when he would run er
**This chapter gets steamy towards the end**"Kaia? What are you doing here? Its 5:30 in the morning" Bastian asked, pulling his arms through his shirt. He looked like he was in the middle of getting ready when I knocked; his hair is a tousled mess, his pants still hung on his hips, his shirt was still wide open exposing his chest and he was barefoot."You never got back to me about watching Ren train with everyone. I figured I could beat you guys this morning and join you" I explained, pushing past him to enter his home.Bastian opened his mouth to speak but then sighed and closed the door. He walked past me to go into the kitchen, "You like coffee?" he asked."I had some before coming over. Thank you" I told him as I walked around to look at the pictures since I was soaking wet last time and didn't look around in fear of getting the floor dirty. I saw pictures of Bastian and Asumi's wedding, pictures of Ren and his brother and family ph
15 Years AgoBellatrix's POVThe door to the library opened wide and Saige came running at full force, "Mommy! Mommy! Look aren't I the prettiest princess ever?" Saige called out happily with a pink tiara on her head that matched her Sleeping Beauty costume. Kaia followed close behind her with her head buried in a book. I smiled at my daughters as they walked into the pack library where I found sanctuary. Saige ran up to me whereas Kaia sat in the chair beside me."You look beautiful sweetheart" I complimented and pulled her into my lap. "Where is your princess dress Kiki?" I asked Kaia."Dad said I'm going to be Luna soon and I shouldn't associate myself with childlike activities" she replied, not looking away from her book.I laughed lightly and pushed the book down so she can focus on me. "But my darling you are only 10. You technically are still a child" I reminded her.The large library door opened once
Present DayI gasped loudly in shock and sprung up to a sitting position on my bed. The same damn nightmare cursed me again tonight making my heart race with fear. The fire, my pack, my siblings' heads hitting the floor, and that damn villainous smile plagued me. I placed a hand over my heart and ran a hand over my sweaty face in an attempt to calm me down but the longer I sat here, the more anxious I grew. I pulled the sheets off of me and quickly ran out to the hallway. I walked down the hall to Saige's room and gently opened the door to peek inside. I sighed with contentment when I saw her sleeping peacefully in Elijah's arms."Thank goddess" I whispered and closed her door. I walked across from her room and opened Elios's door hoping to see him asleep as well but my heart fell when I found his bed empty and he wasn't in his gaming chair either.I swung the door open and began searching his room for any sign of him. "Elios?" I tried to keep m
Running to the library with Ren following close behind, I felt nothing but shock and betrayal that my father would have the gull to not only cheat on the goddess that was my mother but he did it with a vampire woman. He has the audacity to talk down on every other species but having sex with a vampire and impregnating her was okay for him. That son of a bitch.Not only was I angry at my father, I also held some anger towards Saige and Elijah for breaking something my mother held dear and we tried to keep it in the best condition but since they decided to be reckless, horny teenagers it is now broken.I flung the doors open and the sight of the broken wood sprawled across the floor only made me angrier and I sent a death glare to my sister and brother in law. Elijah took a protective stance in front of Saige but he forgot that I had the Alpha tone in me and I could use it whenever I damned well please. "Kaia, please I'm so sorry" Saige tried to squeeze in front of her m
It felt like time was frozen in place. Everyone stopped to look at my father as he glared daggers at me and Ren. I felt it was difficult to breathe; as if my lungs were being constricted by fear and refused to take in air. My body refused to move. I desperately wanted to shield Ren from my dad. He had a look in his eyes with murderous intentions and I'll be damned if he tries to lay a hand on my mate.Around me I saw others running to hide their mates and I don't know if my dad picked up on their scent or not but I'm praying he didn't. He seems too focused on Ren to care about anything else right now.Saige slowly turned around to face him but she knew better than to get near him. "Hi daddy. What brings you here?" she asked nervous sweetness. Elijah stood behind her and held her by her shoulders in case of any sudden lunges, he can push
I woke up the next morning with a crick in my neck. I kept my face looking towards Ren all night; afraid that he would wake up before me and leave but when I opened my eyes he was still there sound asleep in the bed beside me. I sighed in relief and attempted to at least sit up. I forced myself on my ass and swung my legs over the side of the bed and tried to move my neck around without injuring myself. The door to the infirmary opened and Juliet walked in with a red apple in her mouth, coffee in one hand and a clipboard in the other.Her light green eyes found my brown ones and she rolled them playfully before setting down the clipboard down so she can grab her apple out of her mouth. "Only you would be awake at the crack of dawn. Luna, you need to rest" she scolded me before taking a bite of her breakfast."I'm a Luna. I'm always up b
17 years ago..Bellatrix's POV"Bellatrix, I don't understand why it is so hard for you to listen to orders?! This is where Saige gets it from!" Aldric screamed in my face before throwing the loose strands of our children's hair. I blinked rapidly in surprise and shook my head to see clear again.Aldric growled and paced around our room in a furious rage. "What made you think this was a good idea?!" he questioned."My babies wanted their hair short because they were complaining that it's too hot and it's hard to manage. I did what I did to make my babies happy" I simply explained, keeping my head up so I can look at him in the eyes."They're not babies anymore Bellatrix! Kaia is about to get her wolf next year and Saige is 10 now. Now they look less feminine and I have to bare with looking at them until they grow out their hair again" he sneered, banging his fist into our dresser.I refrain
