AURORAAdrian wouldn’t stop reading the letter. He’s been devouring it. I needed to know what was in it. I had to because, without me, we may have never even found the golden statue. We didn’t know where we would end up so letters were secured in the mouths of all the Silverclaw emergency mailboxes. They have that on every mountain both in and out of their territory, they are protected under The Dark Alpha's law. I thought it was a smart move, for unfortunate emergencies like this. I wished we were able to leave messages for them too, tell them we were safe but I think the empty mail post is enough proof of that. But making the eagle statues gold wasn't the smartest choice since it attracted the kind of people that they didn't want near it. Is he trying to show off?Adrian loses points for that. If it wasn't him who designed it then, I was sure it would be Dylan. That crook. Gosh, I can't believe I miss him. I missed all of them. I missed the packhouse too and I missed my motherly
AURORA“Mom went too hard on the code. She was meant to make it impossible for everyone but me! Dang it!”I admired the space we all dropped in when we first came down and thought it had to be the best part of the mansion because it looked like somewhere you would travel to in a good dream. It was a large roomy area that looked like an apartment, the lights were so bright that you would’ve had a problem differentiating day from night, and in this case, it was already pitch dark outside. The cream-tiled floor caught my eye first with interesting and innovative designs that made me think of walking on the ground and the large equally tiled walls of matching grace drive you to reminisce of the sun. If it was a bit cooler in here, I would rethink returning to the surface—it’s not like anything better is happening up there—but I still didn’t understand how this was a mansion. It’s just a… looks like I was wrong because the best and better parts were yet to come.There were MORE floors and
KATRINAI leaned on the door, checking my surroundings for anyone around because a Luna eavesdropping on her own Alpha was not the kind of news I wanted to be spreading in the packhouse for the jobless busybodies to be gossiping about.Checking to see if his door was unlocked, I opened it by a soundless crack and set my eyes on him, the most handsome man I’ve ever met, sitting with his back faced to me on a chair similar to one from his office, and a table laid in front of him like a gift from the gods. The reading room was not very different from his office, he didn’t have a lot of style—I could confirm that—but there were custom-made shelves of books stacked over each other in this god of a room. The Alpha uses every free time he gets to read, and the only thing that’s hotter than watching Kane reading was staring at him lovingly, when he was over me, with that dark, insane, animalistic look in his eyes as he was about to… When was the last time we even made love? The heartache of
AURORA My ears had been working for the past three hours that I should’ve been sleeping. The packhouse was silent and I was certain that no one was awake. The occasional movement of Sigmas was gone. I couldn’t hear the bitter muttering of maids on their nightly duties. Neither did I see or smell a sign of mom and dad.But it was unlikely they’d come to check on me. A part of me wished they would… I pushed that thought aside.Though I’ve done this many times, I won’t lower my guard and forget to maintain caution. My senses were always on alert. I’ve never been caught and I want to keep it that way. Quickly, I climbed out of my bed and bent under it, pulling out the gorgeous new violet dress Kyle had gotten me. It was my favorite designer and exactly what I wanted. I can’t think of a better boyfriend than Kyle.I’m just waiting for the moon goddess to do her thing and mate us already. I slid the dress on and admired my curves in the mirror. I’m glad I got mom’s hourglass shape, boobs,
FOUR YEARS EARLIER...KATRINA“You can’t take her away! She’s my daughter!”I had only heard stories of the Alpha who drinks the blood of his defeated enemies. An Alpha who kills for fun and strikes terror when it’s his godforsaken birthday. An Alpha who’s slayed every girl he’s ever laid with. An Alpha who singlehandedly raised his pack from the ashes of conquest to victory. The one wolf territories have known for his blackness. The one that every living wolf today calls… The Dark Alpha.After my encounter with the Alpha Triplets, I thought I’d never meet a worse wolf. Another more evil and wicked but I was wrong. I’ve always been.Kane’s hold on me was firm and he was the only thing standing in the way of me tearing someone apart. The sun that had once been shining disappeared the second this abomination stepped into our pack.He wore a black hoodie that kept his face in the shadows. Only his nose and lips that had been pierced in gold were shimmering. There was a smug smirk on his w
AURORA Everyone could see and feel the darkness getting closer. Kyle was burning in rage, clutching my lap, while Alexa and Nicole held each other tightly, guarded by the filming equipment as they tried so desperately to be one with the wall.Kyle’s anger got the best of him. He left my side and headed for the Alpha while I slowly backed away, prepared to use my powers when the need arises. I was oblivious to my half-nakedness because the dark aura that made Alexa and Nicole terrified, forced me to relive my worst nightmares.“How dare you barge in here?! Who are you?! What is your business here?! Do you know who I am?”The man wore a black hoodie and I couldn’t see his face in the darkness but there was something about him—apart from the darkness—that made my heart race and my mind freeze.When his head shifted, I felt his eyes on me and I staggered back, keeping myself on my feet.The wolf began to walk in and I heard Alexa and Nicole whimper.“You have some audacity to still keep m
AURORAIt’s been a terrible week… horrible. Since I refused to talk to mom and dad, I made a group call with my friends to tell them what happened. Turns out that when the stranger left their sides and came to me, Kyle woke up and ran away with the girls.I thought they would’ve sent someone to help. But they didn’t, then something must have happened… right but I was shocked when they straight up told me they never wanted to see me again.Kyle broke up with me that instant and the girls said I was a bad omen and would bring trouble to them—or some shit like that. I had to cut the call and block their numbers because I couldn’t stand their hurtful words.Kyle’s been with me for two years and they’ve been my friends for more. I was heartbroken when they did that but I refused to shed a tear. Warriors… don’t… cry.I felt like I had no one else in the world and Evolet wasn’t very helpful either. She wouldn’t stop talking about how I should have listened to her and it’s the most annoying th
KATRINA“I don’t believe you right now,” I sighed, relaxing back on the neck rest that protected me from what I was having my hair washed in. As luck would have it, Kane was free enough to take it up from the maid… He was just rinsing the soap off but the brilliant movement of his fingers on my scalp was extremely distracting. “I tried to tell them. I really did but Aurora… where did you learn to wash hair like this and why are you just doing this?”He smirked.I was just in a satin underdress and he had no more than a towel over his waist. The only thing missing was he in my front, letting me feast my eyes on his drool-worthy body. I wished I had more than one of him.‘I can’t believe I just said that.’‘You’ve always had a bad mouth.’I was too busy melting under his touch to realize that Kane was reaching for me. His lips found mine and I had a spicy taste of his succulent passion—the only thing I can never get tired of. It felt like hours before we let go and he started washing ag
