Aria POVAt first I thought the garden was empty until I found Audrey sitting close to the stream still wearing her night wears.I sighed and walked over to her side and sit down. We said nothing to each other but just stared at the stream."I was going to tell you Aria." She said with a soft but broken voice."Are you sure Killian did it?" I asked calmly."I can never lie to you Aria. We have come a long way together. I will not ruin my friendship because of some petty lies." She said."You have to understand the seriousness of what you are saying. I love Killian damn too much and with a child there will be serious trouble." I said to her."And then there is Dawson, who will fight tooth and nail to make sure that he acts irrational about the situation." I added.Audrey turned around to face me, holding my hand after wiping off tears. "You are my best friend. We are not going to do anything possiblle to ruin our friendship." "What do you want me to do?" I asked."A secret. We need to
Aria POVI opened my eyes, trying to take in so much breath. My competitor looked composed, staring down at me with a pitiable smile.“You don’t have to force this training future Luna.” “No Millie, I need to learn how to fight. Your customs here don’t need a weak Luna.” Millie dropped the sparing sword and walked over to me, she stretched out her hands and I took it.We walked to a sit and stayed in a moment of silence.“A true Luna doesn’t need too much strength. Yes there are going to be tasks that you will perform before the Alpha claims you, but there are not always about fighting.”“Sometimes I sit down and think if the people of Blood Moon Pack will love me, like they love my mate.” Millie begins to unsheathe her boots, dropping them on the bench on after the other. “Our people will welcome someone that is herself, just be you Luna.”“Millie!”We both turned around to see Annie, who had just entered the training centre all dressed up in her fighting kit.“Get up and let’s spa
Killian POVUnlike every usual day, the war room was colder and perhaps it was because of the tension in the air.The presence of Lucian made everywhere tensed.The moment Aria and I walked into the court room, our eyes matched and he held a smile on his face.Lucian was wearing a black and red cloak and it symbolize the colors of Crimson Pack. Perhaps he didn't come with anything threatening like I had thought after all. "Lucian." I said with a sharp voice to him. "You have got the audacity to walk into my pack after everything you did in the past?" He lowered his head this time. "Killian, I didn't come to get you angry. I came to make every thing right between us. All I ask is to be given the audience to speak." He said calmly."Make things right? You betrayed your own people. You supported Seraphina and getting into bed with her. What did you call it....." I said racking my brain for the exact word he had used."Strategy. A strategy with a bloody witch!" I cursed out loud.Aria
Aria PovThe wind was rustling over the edges of my cloak while I stand alone in the open courtyard with the sword in my hand.My breathing was heavy and sweat dropped down my brow. I felt my muscles burning with every swing but despite that I refused to stop.The weight of the world was upon my shoulders and the survival of people depended on my ability to move through this phase of training.I closed my eyes and channeled my energy into my my palm again trying to give the spell to be stable but with everything thing I did was fizzled out."Damn it!" I cursed underneath my breath clenching my fist in anger. "Not again." I said, staring at my palm.I closed my eyes a tool a deep breath trying to focus on my pulse and hoping the magic works this time around. Ever since the announcement of Mark arrival, I have been restless. From the description made by the wizard, he was certainly going to be a tough opponent.Suddenly the air changed and I felt a presence and a smile filled my face.
Seraphina POV"And that is how I ended up being in this dilemma." He said.After we had greet the guest, we moved to the counter and he was narrating his experience with his ex wife.I couldn't help but feel pity for him. He did not deserve such a cruel and heartless woman. Someone coughed behind me and I turned around startled by Mike's face. "Surprise you will make it. Considering you had wifey issues." He said with a smile on his face."Watch your tongue." Lucian warned.They were obviously not good siblings and it is obvious from the past two conversations that they had together."Well Mr. Wallace is here to see you." He said, walking over to Lucian's side. "He has an offer for you but there are terms and conditions you have to meet." He added.I watched the both of them looking at each other with raw intensity in their eyes.Lucian said no words but got out of his sit. "I hope you don't end up talking trash to my woman." He warned before leaving.I watched him move over to a gr
Seraphina POVMy thought was stuck and my brain could not process what to write as I stayed in the bed.It was evening of a weekend and so many things has happened over the course of the week that was worth writing.Staring at the Diary, I picked up my pen again hoping to write the things that I was grateful for, when a harsh knock came through the door."Who is it?" I asked.I pulled the curtains of the window and looked out to see Lucian standing at the entrance of the door.Why is he here?My last encounter with him did not settle well with him.I jumped out of the bed and rushed to get the door opened. After pulling the door opened, our eyes met before I allowed him to walk into the room."Are you free?" He asked, taking a sit on the couch."Yea." I replied going to my bed and covering up my diary."There is this exclusive party that I just received an invite. So many top Alphas will be in attendance and we need to be there to secure more soldiers for the pack." He narrated."But
