AURELIA

Dinner went fine, I guess.

Del was polite. Sat beside me. Nodded when I spoke. Poured me wine once, which was okay, it was something.

But I don't know if he is pissing me off or what because tell me why his face was as hard as concrete and he kept looking straight ahead like he was slowly going crazy.

But he smiled once when I told him that I was very good at archery.

So yeah. That’s progress, right?

Layla didn’t show. Obviously. After the whole garden scene, she was probably hiding in some corner, crying or writing poetry or whatever she does to make people feel sorry for her.

Del didn’t say her name or try to tell me some silly story about their love or even ask the maids why she wasn't at dinner and that was the best part. Like, maybe he’s finally seeing me. Not her. Me. His Luna even though I still had the concubine title on me.

And the council? They already noticed me and they were watching us. Nodding and approving. Like we made sense. Like I belonged there beside him.

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    Always

    LAYLA Three years have gone by. Three years of power, pain and achievement.I still find it hard to believe how far we've come, sometimes, especially when I wake up to Adrielle's laughter reverberating down the hallway or feel Del's arms encircling me before the sun comes up. It feels unreal like waking up in a life that I was previously forbidden to have. After the truth was revealed after Kaelan and Faelan were engulfed by the very shadows they once controlled and after their own greed destroyed them, I did more than simply survive. I remembered how they had paid for their crimes, Kaelan had drunk poison, too proud to go to jail like his brother.Aurelia was never seen again, she just vanished.I never went back to the girl who had pleaded to be heard and seen. They couldn't stop me from returning like a storm. I didn't stop there either. I reshaped what they had burned, not just rebuilt it.All of the laws, customs and walls that once made me feel less than were destroyed and re

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    Bitter forgiveness

    LAYLA Aurelia was standing before me. She wasn't looking arrogant or smiling wickedly at me. She simply looks tired. Of what ?She sniffed and that was when I realized that she was crying too. Was this staged or something? Another of her stupid plans? How did she find me here?Her typically bold and sharp makeup was hardly visible. She appeared to have been crying for days because of the swollen red and puffy lids on her eyes. I remained motionless.with a wet cloth in one hand and my heart pounding in my ears.Neither the queen nor rival was making an entrance. This was a completely different matter. Aurelia took one trembling breath before falling to her knees before me on Mama Dena's creaking wooden floor.“I came to say I'm sorry.” She said in a whisper.My heart beat erratically. I was silent at first. I asked the only question I could think of.“What do you want?” I said in a low voice“To tell you the truth,” She replied in a raw voice. With wet lashes and glossy eyes she g

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    A shadow at the door

    LAYLA I couldn't remember who came to my rescue. I had fainted from the cold that night in the blizzard following Adrielle's kidnap. With my body too weak to move, I had encircled my body with my arms. Half of my body, buried by snow. In the distance, I could hear wolves howling—low foreboding cries that rose and fell and in my unconsciousness I was wondering if they had come for me too.My breath had been coming in quick frantic gasps until it stopped. Then it was just cold. Then nothing happened. I was rescued though. Someone with powerful arms carefully lifted me out of the snow moving quietly and I didn't know why they chose to help me.“You’re safe now,” someone whispered as they wrapped me softly in thick furs and used trembling hands to brush ice from my face. Their faces were hidden from me. And I felt just warmth. Only safety. I recognized the voice but I trusted it out of instinct. The first thing that hit me with the pain, a stupid headache and I was wishing I had died

    DELThe room was quiet, in fact the whole pack was quiet, just the way I wanted it. The quietness meant they I was getting ready to unleash my anger I was planning something that would make my enemies cry, one for which the components had been gathered over several months. And her face appeared each time I closed my eyes. Layla. The night I sent her away her eyes. The disbelief, the suffering. She must have felt so betrayed by this. I had allowed it to happen because I was unaware at the time. But now I did. It hadn't been a sudden revelation. Drop by painful drop, the poison had slowly seeped in. A maid, too inquisitive for her own good, had come to me and I had rewarded her just as we had planned and now she was far away, safe where they wouldn't find her.I had gotten a letter which had all the evidence I needed. A former guard who disappeared after Aurelia revealed she was pregnant reappeared months later, bruised half-mad and eager to tell what he knew. I didn't initially b

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    A perfect lie

    AURELIA Soon, it would be time and everything I desired would be mine. I smiled, sipping from my glass as father and his brother discussed.The wine's warmth melted into my throat as it moved down my throat. However, I continued to stare at the door. Holding my breath.Immediately after the door creaked open the room changed. The atmosphere shifted. They'd succeeded. Two men dressed in heavy wet furs came in. Everyone in the room gasped. From the bundle, a tiny muffled cry leaked out. My heart pounded. I stood up. I was afraid not because of the men or the cry but because it was perfect now. Everything was perfect now.Now the sweet plan we had woven together laced with deception and hidden motives was breathing for the first time. The bundle was gently placed in the cradle I had set up in the far corner of the room by the man who stepped forward. Royal crests carved into ivory wood with the finest silks lining the base befitting a princess. My princess. Holding hands behind

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    My baby and I

    LAYLA The fire had long since subsided. The only sound left was the crackle of the final ember fighting for air in a frigid room. Adrielle was nestled against my chest as I sat there bundled up in whatever warmth I could find including the hem of my own dress, my cloak and a ragged fur. I was unaware that I had strength until her tiny breaths puffed softly against my skin, the rhythm of her frail life. The storm had slowed down outside. The thick strange silence that followed chaos filled the room and it seemed as though the world was holding its breath. And then I heard it. A pinch. Boots on snow. I went cold. One more step this time closer. And further. Multiple sets.m, consciously and heavy. I knew instantly that something wasn't right. I gasped. My arms automatically clenched around my daughter. After a sharp kick the front door which was barely supported by its rusted hinges shook and then flew open.Shadows appeared as the wind screamed into the space. A trio of them, f
