Aurelia's POV

The last time I'd attended a formal gathering in Vane territory, I'd spent most of the evening standing beside Darius while people discussed matters that had nothing to do with me.

Tonight, I arrived in a hospital vehicle with Dr Ardis and Hobbs, who had spent the journey trying to convince our driver that he was taking the longer route.

"It's the only road open to the event entrance," he told her for the third time.

"I know another one," Hobbs insisted.

Ardis didn't bother lookin

  • The Luna He Never Deserved   Chapter 51 — The Mother Coming Home

    Aurelia's POV"You're bringing Mother home?"I leaned closer to Helena's phone, almost knocking the folder of documents off my lap."Yes," Adrian answered. "Her doctors have cleared her for travel, and I've already started making the arrangements. If everything goes according to plan, we should arrive the day after tomorrow."Helena was smiling beside me, but I could barely return it.A few minutes ago, I'd been sitting in the registrar's office, trying to get used to seeing Aurelia Laurent on my legal documents. Now Adrian was telling me that I would finally meet the woman who'd given me that name."Does she know about me?" I asked."Not yet. I wanted to speak to you first, like I promised."I lowered my eyes to the folder in my lap.When Evander first told me Mother was alive, he'd explained how badly her condition had deteriorated after years of searching for me. Every false lead had made things worse until her doctors recommended treatment away from everything connected to my disa

  • The Luna He Never Deserved   Chapter 50 — Aurelia Laurent

    Aurelia’s POVFor a moment, I could only look at the envelope in Darius’s hand.I’d imagined this moment so many times that I’d expected to know exactly what to say when it finally arrived. Instead, I stood beside the corridor window, listening to the distant conversations from the reception while my husband held out the documents I’d spent weeks asking him to sign.He didn’t move closer or try to place them in my hands. He simply waited until I reached for the envelope myself.I opened it beneath the wall lamp and took out the agreement. My signature was still where I’d left it, along with the reason I’d written in his study while my suitcase waited in the hall.Betrayal of the mate bond.I turned to the final page, and there, beneath mine, was Darius’s signature.The date beside it was yesterday’s.I read it twice to make certain I hadn’t misunderstood.Yesterday, before Evander walked into the ceremony. Before anyone knew I was a Laurent, and before Darius discovered that the man w

  • The Luna He Never Deserved   Chapter 49 — Too Late to Want Her

    Darius’s POV“Not now that we know she’s the Lycan King’s sister.”I stared at my mother, wondering whether she’d heard herself.She was still holding my arm, her attention moving between my face and the royal delegation across the hall. Less than an hour ago, she’d been demanding to know which wealthy Alpha was paying for Aurelia’s clothes.Now she was asking me to keep Aurelia as my wife because of the family she’d been born into.“Let go of my arm, Mother.”She released me, although her expression remained impatient.“Darius, I need you to think carefully about this. Whatever disagreements you’ve had with Aurelia, you cannot throw away a connection to House Laurent over a few unfortunate arguments.”“A few unfortunate arguments?” I repeated, unable to believe she was describing the past several weeks that way.“You know what I mean.” She lowered her voice as two guests passed nearby. “The Laurents are the most powerful family in the territories. Do you understand what a marriage al

  • The Luna He Never Deserved   Chapter 48 — Everything He Got Wrong

    Darius’s POV“That was your brother?”Aurelia didn’t answer immediately, and for a moment, I wondered whether I’d actually spoken aloud.She stood between Evander and Ronan Laurent, watching me with an expression I couldn’t quite read. Around us, the hall had erupted into whispers, but I could barely hear them over the memory of what I’d done the evening she left.I’d dragged my wife against me because another male’s scent was on her clothes, kissed her while she struggled, and tried to replace every trace of that scent with my own.When she finally bit me hard enough to draw blood, I’d accused her of going to another man.Now that man was standing beside her, with one hand resting protectively against her shoulder.Her brother.The Lycan King was Aurelia’s brother.“Yes, Darius,” Aurelia answered eventually. “Evander is my brother.”I looked toward him, remembering what he’d just explained about collecting Aurelia from the hospital.She’d been injured, and he’d given her his coat bef

  • The Luna He Never Deserved   Chapter 47 — His Sister

    Aurelia's POVHelena stopped beside me, her attention fixed on Octavia.For a moment, nobody spoke. Several guests had moved away to give us room, but there were still enough people standing nearby that I knew whatever happened next would be repeated throughout the hall before the evening ended."Your Majesty." Octavia recovered first, lowering her head. "I hope you haven't misunderstood what you heard.""I heard you accuse a woman of having an affair with my husband," Helena replied, her expression remaining calm. "Which part would you like me to misunderstand?"Octavia's confidence faltered.Beside her, Vivienne immediately lowered her gaze, while Rosalie took a small step backward, apparently deciding that this was no longer a conversation she wanted to lead."I was concerned for you, Your Majesty," Octavia explained. "There are circumstances you may not be aware of.""Then perhaps you should explain them."Octavia glanced toward Darius, but when he made no attempt to help her, she

  • The Luna He Never Deserved   Chapter 46 — The King's Mistress

    Aurelia's POVI had expected my brothers to attend the ceremony, but I hadn't expected their arrival to attract quite so much attention.The moment Evander was introduced, the atmosphere inside the hall changed. Conversations stopped, people straightened their clothes, and several Alphas who had been speaking rather loudly moments earlier suddenly looked as though they were afraid of attracting attention.I remained beside the hospital representatives, watching as Evander acknowledged the welcome before moving toward the seats reserved for the royal delegation.Helena stood beside him in her dark green gown, while Ronan exchanged a few words with one of the guards.When Helena noticed me watching, she smiled briefly before returning her attention to the officials greeting her.Good.At least she'd remembered our conversation.I'd specifically asked them not to turn tonight into a royal introduction, and I wanted nothing more than to finish the ceremony with my colleagues and return ho
