I don't post as much as I did in the past and that's because I'm preparing for my college exams. I'll still keep posting new chapters but I can't promise they will come so fast as I once did. Thank you for still supporting this story despite the slow update. It will get better.
Blood Moon packAlpha Velvet knew the moment she saw Aiden coming that something was wrong with him. She paused in her pace, her eyes trained on him as she waited for him to walk to where she was standing on the verandah of the pack house. Of course, the packhouse of the Blood Moon pack was much better than hers and this was another reason she didn't want to leave. She felt like she was the rightful owner of everything the Blood Moon pack had and she wanted to have them all for herself. After all, she would never have to suffer the way she had done if Alpha Lundamous had not destroyed her home. Her utmost desire had been to do the same to the Blood Moon pack but after listening to Aiden, her plan had been tweaked to just having the pack for herself. She could still remember the reaction of Davina when she had told them of her desire to dethrone Jared. Davina had been worried that the pack members would not accept that, and as a result, make things difficult for her but Alpha Velve
*Blood Moon pack*Silence reigned for a few seconds before Alpha Velvet zoomed out of her shock."What?" She yelled, her face pale and her lips widely parted. Of course, she knew who Adelia was and her heart was pounding heavily in her chest as she tried to process the reason Adelia would come all the way to see Aiden. Aiden, on the other hand, was stunned at the news and all he could do was stare with his eyes wide. Various thoughts were coming into his head as he wondered why Adelia had come to see him. Did she have any news about her brother? Though she hated him and rejected him, she might want to help him out with some useful tips since she had never really liked her brother. Perhaps, she had heard the news about his attack and wanted to help him out. That was the only reasonable reason Aiden could come up with about Adelia's visit. There was no way she had come all the way just because she wanted to see his face. She had said it before: She wished she never knew him and she w
*Blood Moon Pack*"Can we talk alone? I came here to see just you.""And what nonsense did you just spew out?" Alpha Velvet finally spoke, announcing her presence to the shocked woman."Who do you think you are to make orders about what you would do or not? A quick reminder, Jared is no longer in power. Don't think this is your brother's pack or any other bullshit. We decide what goes on here and not the other way." Alpha Velvet managed not to yell but rather, kept her voice low and calm. However, the warning in her voice was evident. She was warning Adelia not to overstep her boundary but Adelia didn't seem to get that warning.Rather, she stared at Alpha Velvet distastefully, her hazel eyes slowly looking at Alpha Velvet from her head to her toe and back up, just as one would do to a maid. Alpha Velvet felt insulted but not as insulted as she felt when Adelia finally spoke."And who is this?" She asked Aiden, a jeer in her voice and a sneer on her face. Alpha Velvet lost it at tha
*Blood Moon pack*Aiden watched Alpha Velvet leave and his heart squeezed in pain as he stared at her retreating figure. He knew he had hurt her. He had seen her eyes shimmer with tears for a second before she blinked. Perhaps, he shouldn't have spoken that harshly to her but he had just been frustrated by her behaviour. He had tried all he could to show her that she was the one he desired, the one his heart yearned for and not Adelia, but it was obvious she didn't believe him. If she did, she would have no reason to disapprove of his talking with Adelia alone. Couldn't she trust him just a little bit?He was already upset about his friends and now, he had to deal with Alpha Velvet's jealousy too. Aiden was exhausted; he wanted nothing but to be alone, all by himself."Shall we?" Adelia's voice brought him out of his reverie and he finally tore his eyes from the door he had been looking at. "Yes." He replied, glancing at Kunata who had been very quiet, just standing by the side lik
*Blood Moon pack*Adelia, on the other hand, was feeling tormented by Aiden's silence. She could see the torture on his face even when he was trying not to show it. If only there was another way to go about this thing, she wouldn't have let him feel this pain. But he needed to know. It was high time he did. She had kept this secret for so long and it was time she let it out."I never wanted to reject you. I didn't mean any of the things I said to you. I just said all that so you would accept the rejection." She continued."Why are you telling me this now?" Aiden asked, his eyes clouded with pain — pain he didn't think he would ever feel. He thought he was done with everything Adelia but standing with her and listening to her say all these to him, his emotion was indescribable. He could not explain what he was feeling. He was just so confused and that was very frustrating."Because you deserve to know the truth." Adelia looked taken aback. "I can't have you thinking I rejected you bec
*Blood Moon pack*It had been a while since Adelia left, yet Aiden could not get himself to leave. He could not believe all that she had told him and as he stood by the Pine tree, he tried to process all she had just said to him. After standing in the same spot for a while, Aiden finally came to his senses and he rushed back to the packhouse, only to discover that Adelia had left with her guards. He sighed heavily, face-palming himself as he leaned on the pillar at the verandah of the pack building. What was he going to do now? Rather than get useful tips about Jared, he got something even worse. Nicole!What had Adelia done to her? Was she alright? How had Adelia gotten to know about her? How did she know that Nicole had housed him? Many questions were running through his head, but he had no answers to them and the more he thought about them, the more frustrated, exhausted, and angry, he became. It felt like nothing good was happening after this war. In fact, he was starting to
*Blood Moon pack* "I just wanted to do what was right for the pack. I tried to do what would be right for us. I thought she had information that would aid our search for Jared. Unfortunately, I was wrong." "You were?" Alpha Velvet raised a brow, "she didn't say anything about Jared?" "No." Aiden shook his head. "Then why was she here then if she didn't have any news about Jared? Why will she lie to have one? Wasn't that the reason she wanted to talk to you alone?" Alpha Velvet pulled herself from his embrace so she could face him. This time, Aiden didn't stop her. He let her leave his embrace. "If she had any such news about her brother, I know not. But she didn't tell me." He shook his head again. "Then what were you two talking about for close to an hour?" Alpha Velvet folded her arms, her brows furrowing as she stared at Aiden, trying to gauge the expression on his face. But Aiden was not looking at her. Rather, he was staring behind her shoulder, probably at the wall or the
Calix kept running, looking behind his shoulder from time to time to ensure that no one was following him. His heart was pounding loudly in his chest and his subconscious was warning him to return, but how could he turn back now? He had come too far to give up now.He could sight the clearing Jared had told him about and a sigh of relief escaped his lips as he got closer to it. He was now out of breath and the moment he reached the clearing, he slumped and fell to the ground. He had deliberately chosen not to shift so he could hide his scent. The plan was to leave the Blood Moon pack without a trace and now that he had gotten to his destination, he was exhausted. "Why are you panting like a street dog?" A voice said to him but Calix only hissed, shutting his eyes tightly as he tried to catch his breath. Of course, he knew who it was and that was all the more reason he was refusing to speak. Jared had always been annoying and he would not stop now."One would think you've run a marat
