The Luna's Second Chance 13. Uninvited
Aurora’s PovAfter Alpha Darius left, I took a moment before heading back to the Villa that served as the packhouse. Tonight's dinner party had taken place in the Grand dining hall inside the villa which was the only route I knew back to my room. As I entered the hall, I could hear whisper of hushed conversations, but I ignored them as I made my way to the staircase that leads to my room on the second floor. Just as I reached the stairs, I heard Aria call my name “Aurora”.But I didn't acknowledge her. I saw my mother in law, Avery, coming to my direction, her eyes locked on me but I didn't slow down and quickened my pace when a woman intercepted her in a conversation. The moment I stepped into my room, I exhaled, letting the weight of the evening settle over me. My body ached from tension, and my mind was a mess of twisted thoughts. I had changed something. I hope.In my past life, this dinner had been a disaster. Kieran’s mother had humiliated me in front of everyone, showing e

Aurora’s Pov Immediately I saw through the small gap in the bathroom that it was Kieran, I felt pissed and irritated. As time passes, I find it hard to withstand him but I knew I needed to keep my cool, so I can achieve my goals.I should have known.Of course, he would come looking for me. Not because he cared. Not because he was worried but because I had stepped out of line tonight, and Kieran never liked it when I did something he couldn’t control. I wasn't loving the fact that the events this present time was changing or was I not getting the events right?But how can I forget tonight when it marked the beginning of how my life later turned out. It was a stepping stone to how miserable I later became. How I gave up life and stupid me worshipped the floor Kieran and his family walked on because of duty and love.Stepping out of the small bathroom, I tightened the robe around me, my wet hair clinging to my back as I faced him.He was standing at the edge of the bed, looking all

Aurora’s Pov As soon as Kieran left, I felt relieved. I was half scared he would want to try something funny but thankfully he didn't. I let out a long sigh. Finally, I can lay my head to sleep. I wasn’t sure which emotion was stronger, relief or anger. Relief that he was gone, that I didn’t have to deal with his manipulative behaviors tonight and anger that he even dared to think he could touch me after being with another woman. I wasn’t that weak, stupid, naive girl anymore. I wouldn’t let him have sex with me again. More than anything, I wouldn’t let history repeat itself. I felt my heart clenched as I remembered Caleb. The memories of Caleb came flooding, my heart felt like it was being squeezed. The pain was suffocating, making it hard to breathe. I remembered Caleb, my sweet, innocent child, and the agony I felt when I lost him. I sobbed uncontrollably, the tears streaming down my face. I even made Aria his godmother. A deceitful, two-faced bitch. She honestly des

Darius’s Pov I woke up by dawn, the familiar urge stirring within me. It was time for my daily run, a ritual I cherished a lot. It gives Magnus freedom as well while I get to clear my head and give in to my animal side. I quickly got dressed and headed out. I was eager to let out all the pent up frustration and irritation inside of me. All through the night, I was restless, unable to stop thinking about her. The way she reacted to my touch in the stall had me craving for more. My body ached with desire. Even had wet dreams and my erection ached all through the night.Stepping outside, the morning air filled my lungs, I ran towards the forest in the pack. I put off my shirt and pants, not wanting to rip them apart when I shift. The last thing I needed was to walk home naked, especially when everyone would be awake.The shift was quick due to Magnus' eagerness to hunt. As I transformed, I felt a rush of adrenaline in me, heightening my senses. No matter how far I ran, the thoughts of

Darius's POV I leaned back in the chair, resting my head on the sofa, my fingers tapping against the armrest gently as I thought of the best answer to give Ezra. He sat in silence, looking at me with a look of quiet concentration, expecting what my response will be. Everything happened so suddenly, I haven't been able to process it all without the bond kicking in and making me act all unreasonable but I blame it all on my pent-up hormones. “So I spoke to our investigator about her after you asked me to find everything about her,” he said, seeing I wasn’t saying anything. “He’ll be getting back to me soon with details. Once I have them, I’ll forward everything to you.” I exhaled slowly. Aurora was still too much of a mystery, I really know nothing about her apart from the fact that she was introduced to me as Kieran's mate. I needed to know everything about her. Where she came from, what kind of life she lived before she ended up in my territory, before she became Kieran’s mat

Aurora’s Pov I wasn't expecting anyone this early, but I knew exactly who it would be when I heard the knock. Kieran. He must have already heard or seen the news about Darius and me. I sighed, bracing myself for the confrontation. I pulled the door open.The moment the door swung wide open, a sharp sting exploded across my cheek. My head snapped to the side, the impact so sudden I barely registered it at first. I blinked, my breath caught in my throat as I struggled to process the shock.The sting on my cheek gradually gave way to a dull throb, and I could feel my face burning with heat. I slowly reached up to touch my cheek, wincing at the tender spot where the slap had landed.I turned to look at her, Avery, Kieran’s mother standing before me, looking pissed and filled with rage.How dare she?My left hand still on my burning cheek as I stood in shock. Without waiting for my invitation, she pushed me aside and entered the room. I closed the door behind her, taking some minutes to g

Aurora's POV “Don't” I held up a hand.He sighed. “Look, I know my mother can…” “She hates me. I know,” I cut him off. “I’m used to it.” It wasn't a secret to everyone that she had always hated me. Avery jumps at every opportunity she sees to make me miserable, calling me names, correcting my mistakes and when she heard that Kieran and I were mated, all hell broke loose that day, especially when Kieran told her that he had no plan to reject me. “She had no right to hit you,” he frowned. “And yet, you stood there and did nothing until your father stepped in,” I scoffed. Kieran exhaled sharply, running a hand through his hair. “That’s not fair. What could I have done?” “Something or anything?” I crossed my arms. “You didn’t exactly defend me, Kieran.” He clenched his jaw but didn’t argue. Instead, he changed the subject. “I’m going into town for some business,” he said. “Would you like to come?” “With all the news about me right now? Do you really think that’s a good idea

Aurora’s Pov “Like how?” I asked, checking my outfit out.“Ivy sent this to me,” I added, unintentionally doing a complete 360 degree turning around.“Why are you dressed like a fugitive?” His lips curled into a smirk.I adjusted my scarf, keeping my face hidden more. "Just being cautious," I said. "I’m trying to avoid attention." Darius scoffed. I rolled my eyes. “Clearly, you haven’t seen the papers.”“I saw them,” he shrugged. “Well, I care,” I shot back, adjusting my scarf for what felt like a hundredth time. “I have a reputation to maintain.” I smoothed out the vintage fabric, making sure it was perfectly aligned. Then I realized it had begun to slip off again. I frowned puzzled.I had no idea why it keeps slipping off. ‘Why did it keep doing that? I had tied it securely’ I thought. I adjusted it once more.“Reputation, huh? And what exactly do you think I am? Some scandal waiting to happen?” he scoffed.He stepped closer, his fingers brushing against mine as he gently r

The Luna's Second Chance 96. Vulnerable Hearts
Aurora's POV I shut my eyes, avoiding looking into his eyes, I felt his fingertip trace my lips reverently. Whatever was going through his head, I wanted it as well. I parted my lips to say something. Anything. To tell him I also wanted it but before words could come out, his mouth captured mine, kissing me deeply. His tongue traced the soft fullness of her lips before capturing it again. Relieved he was alive, the warmth I didn't know I needed and Terra's emotion seeping into mine broke down my wall. The tears prickling in eyes that I had fought to blinked away came rolling down my cheeks. The moment our lips parted, I sniffled and quickly wiped them away, trying to breathe, to smile, to pretend everything was okay. But Darius had already seen them. His brows furrowed immediately, and the warmth in his eyes shifted to concern.“I’m sorry,” he said in a low, urgent tone, pulling back slightly. “I shouldn’t have kissed you. Not like that. I got carried away. I…”“No,” I whispered,
The Luna's Second Chance 95. Poison and Confession
Aurora’s Pov The summit was meant to be in a month's time and as it draws nearer, I can't help but have this uneasiness, my stomach churning just thinking about it. The entire pack was buzzing with activity. Meetings were held at odd hours, warriors trained longer and harder, and every high-ranking wolf had something to contribute to the logistics. I had no interest in politics, but Darius asked me to help him and Ezra with the coordination. So, I did even though all my instinct screamed against it.I thought the uneasiness would stop since I was helping oversee the preparation but it wasn’t helping matters. I can't help but shake off the feeling something bad was going to happen. Between my hospital shifts, werewolf medicine training, and building networks with other doctors and businessmen with Darius, I found time to organize files, read through reports, and even schedule meetings with the event planners. It was overwhelming at times, but I couldn't deny the strange sense of pri
The Luna's Second Chance 94. New Wings
Aurora's POV Getting to the pack house, Darius led me to a room. I stood frozen in the doorway, hesitant to enter as he opened the room, my eyes scanned the room with a mix of unease and resentment. "My quarters are across, if you need anything." The thought of having him just across the hall made my heart flutter instantly, an emotion I didn't expect which was obviously from Terra who was leaping with joy in my head.He looked at me then, his eyes steady, seeing how hesitated I was, he took my hands and pulled me gently into the room. Leading me to the sofa in the room."You’re not a prisoner here, Aurora," he said. "You’re free to do whatever you want."I scoffed. "Doesn’t feel that way."He smiled faintly, the kind of smile that made my chest tighten against my will."You can go back to work at Northshore University Hospital," Darius said, surprising me. "Your life in the human city doesn’t have to stop."I blinked at him. "Then why bring me here at all? To force me to be your m
The Luna's Second Chance 93. Bought
Aurora’s Pov I stared blankly at my phone, as I read Lily's shocking revelations on the screen once again. Its been two weeks the article got published. It wasn't just the werewolf communities that were shaken. The human world reacted even more violently. The two worlds were in an uproar, and I couldn't blame them. The names of the Alphas running the clubs and trafficking rings had been exposed, and their human world businesses were being dismantled.I knew the impact this would have on them. The Alphas were respected businessmen in the human world, with reputations built on charm and deceit. Now, their empires were crumbling.The fallout was more massive than even I expected, the world practically caught fire immediately the news went live. News outlets plastered photos of the high-profile businessmen and Alphas with some VIP members including Lily’s picture. Thw Alphas companies had been seized. Their assets frozen. Their names dragged through the mud I couldn't even walk down th
The Luna's Second Chance 92. Distance Between Us
Darius's POV I sat behind my desk, my fingers drummed distractedly on the desk in of me. I was lost in thoughts of the events of the past few months from the moment Aurora and I had shared an intimate moment together. Four months.It had been four damn months since the weekend that she stormed out of my life like a hurricane, refusing to even look in my direction since then. I leaned back in my chair, the leather creaking under my weight, and closed my eyes. I let my mind replayed that disastrous weekend. I made the mistake of letting her find out she was my mate. What I heard feared did happened. She wasn't ready to know."Stupid Magnus,” I muttered. And then there was George’s call.It felt like yesterday when he had called me to inform me that Aurora had asked him to publish everything about Lily online through one of his trusted bloggers online. I could still remember gripping my phone so tightly I almost cracked it in two. I'd told her I would handle it but she doesn't trust
The Luna's Second Chance 91. Vengeance in Scrubs
Aurora’s Pov The weeks bled together in the sterile, bright lights of the hospital. My focus was only on work, learning, building connections. George had told me he will inform me when the news was ready to go live. He said he was working on making sure everything wasnt traced back to him and he was still digging on the VIP list. He didn’t give a timeline nor tell me why he was digging more into the VIP but I trusted him, Terra had assure me to trust him and until then, I immersed myself in my surgeries, finding solace in working and learning. At least while working here amidst humans no one cared about mate bonds or reincarnated wolves or much about my life.Here, I was just Dr. Aurora, the top-ranked resident trauma surgeon and that was more than enough for me.Until Kieran showed up one afternoon. I had just scrubbed out of a long, grueling emergency appendectomy when I saw him standing in the corridor, arms crossed and that usual arrogant look in his eyes.“What the hell are yo
The Luna's Second Chance 90. Awakened
Aurora’s Pov Mason dropped me off inftont of the hospital, it didn’t take long, Rachel appeared with her car to pick me. I needed somewhere to gather my thoughts and a friend to talk to which was why I had texted her to come. While she drove me to her pack, she didn't question me, Rachel could tell I needed the space and time to regather my thought. The moment I stepped foot into her room, I jumped onto the bed and I felt a calmness settle in my chest. She immediately served me a cold soda drink that sent chilly thrills down my stomach and afterwards I took a nap.A few hours later, I was awake, we sat cross-legged on her bed, a warm mug of tea in each of our hands, and I finally began to narrate everything that happened yesterday to today.The dinner, the appeal to spend the weekend with him, Magnus sudden appearance on my bed then the kiss, the sex and the shocking mate claim. My wolf, Terra, speaking to me for the first time. The conversation about reincarnated mates. The rejecti
The Luna's Second Chance 89. The Wolf Within
Aurora’s Pov When I heard the voice, I thought it was Darius calling me or he probably was outside at my doorstep but the voice sounded so unfamiliar, like it was mine and at the same time different. Then it came again, soft, and more distinct this time with a little force that seems powerful. It wasn’t echoing from the hallway or the room next door. It was then I realized it was from my mind.I froze mid-step, halfway into yanking my top over my head.“Aurora.”My hand trembled as I put on my shorts. I needed to get out of here but first what could it be? Was I going crazy and hearing voices just because I'd been hit with another betrayal?“What the hell…” I whispered, glancing around the room. “Aurora, listen.” I heard clearer.“Who said that?” I asked, shaking my head.“I did. Don’t be afraid.”My breath caught. My heart thundered in my chest. “Where are you?”“I’m here. Inside you. I always have been.”I shook my head, confused, my eyes darting around the room as if I’d somehow
The Luna's Second Chance Unleashed
Aurora’s Pov This was what I craved. What I needed. A reprieve from the anger and heartache, a chance to simply feel alive. My nipples were tight peaks beneath my top, sensitive and wanting for his touch. Darius’s lips were hot and firm against mine. He pulled me closer as his tongue teased mine. I moaned, my hands going through his hair as he deepened the kiss. It was like I’d been holding back for years, and it was finally time to let go. We were kissing each other like we were running out of time.I was panting from the intensity of everything. My skin was tingling, warm, flushed, and trembling. His breath ragged against my cheek, his scent suddenly wrapped around me. It was wild, beautiful and everything I hadn’t expected.His hands trembled when they touched me, like he couldn’t believe this was happening and honestly, neither could I.“Fuck, Aurora…” Darius breathed against my lips, breaking the kiss for only a second. “We need to stop.”“I could smell your arousal and I’m on
