LIORA

IT STARTED AS a small stomach ache, but before I knew what was happening, labour contractions shook me to my core. I was alone in the house, and none of my neighbours were available.

I struggled to the door, hoping that I would make it to the main street and meet anybody, but the contractions in my lower belly made me groan and sit back down. I lay down on the floor, waiting for the contractions to pass.

The pain was like nothing I had ever felt. My breath quickened, and I realized that I

    LIORAAS SOON AS candance came into the room, I immediately knew that there was about to be trouble. My heart thudded in my chest as she took in the scenery before her. The tension did not leave the room when Cassian sat down beside Candace instead it thickened and pressed against my skin like humid air before a storm.I held my son closer to my chest, his tiny fingers curled in the fabric of my dress, his breathing was already evening out as sleep pulled at him. My heart was still racing from the mindlink."Cassian, it is." His voice re echoed in my memory. Pride swelled inside me before I could stop it.My son would carry the Alpha’s name. I didn't know what made me pick cassian as a suitable name, but it was the only name in my mind.My son would be called Cassian.The thought felt dangerous and sacred all at once.Across the dining hall, Candace’s laughter floated lightly over the table. Cassian responded in short, controlled tones which i could not hear or pick out what he was

    LIORA BLINKED, TAKEN aback by Cassian’s strong tone of rejection. First she had been the one rejected in her former pack, now her child was being rejected too. The pain that cut across her chest was searing.The baby’s giggle faded also. But Cassian did not look at either Liora, or the baby. He kept his eyes on his plate, jaw tight and fingers gripping the fork harder than necessary.“I forbid it,” he repeated, quieter this time. “Do not name him after me.”Liora swallowed. “I… I only thought...” Her words came out in a stammer.“You thought wrong.” Cassian interrupted.Her lips parted, then closed. She lowered her eyes to her child, pulling him closer to her chest. The movement was subtly protective.Cassian saw it and it stung more than he expected. Even his wolf stirred in discomfort.“It is not fitting,” he added, his tone less harsh now. “The child should not carry my name.”Liora nodded slowly, though confusion flickered across her face. “Is it because… he is not yours?” she as

    WHEN CASSIAN WOKE up, his heart was still heavy, and his mind was troubled. The sub had risen and was shining through the small gap in his window. As he opened his curtain, he shielded his eyes with his hand and stared out. The pack was awake already and everyone was going about their daily duties. The aroma of breakfast drifted into his nose and he went to wash up, scrubbing away the sleep from his face.He packed his long hair in a loose ponytail and dressed casually before going downstairs. He expected quite a number of people in the room, because most of the pack preferred to come and have breakfast in the pack house together. It promoted unity and strengthened the pack bond, but this morning, the room was empty, save for the last person he wanted seated at close proximity."Good morning... alpha, " Liora greeted, standing uo carefully with her baby cradled safely in her arms.He grunted and reply and sat down at the head of the table.She stared at him, unsure of what say or do.

    HE COULD FEEL the impatient and slightly judging eyes of Sienna pinned on him as he thought of an answer to her question.“Well, are you?” She urged.Cassian snorted, angry at the question. If it was anyone else, they would have cowered in fear and stopped the questions. But not Sienna; she prodded on, staring at him and expecting a reply.“She was given to me as a slave,” he said slowly. “As a part of the peace treaty with the Blackspire pack..”“And so?” Sienna asked.“Sienna…“ Cassian groaned.“No, I’m serious,” Sienna replied, cutting into what he was saying. “And so? I have known you for a long time, Cassian, so I know you can’t be forced into accepting a gift you didn’t want.”Cassian said nothing.“And you are not a man driven by lust,” Sienna continued. “I am sure you didn’t look at her and see a sex slave.”A smirk curved Cassian’s lips at that. Sienna knew nothing of the response that seeing Liora did to him and his wolf. She released the sexual primal desire in him.Sienna

    CASSIAN PROWLED THE length of his room restlessly. The beast within him could not go to the back, and kept threatening to take control.He could not tell if it was because of the child that was a room underneath his, or if it was because of the mother, Liora.Maybe it was because of both the child and the mother. Their proximity was doing something to Cassian, something he could noy explain. Growling, and unable to take it anymore, he walked out of his room. The pack mansion was silent as almost everyone was asleep save for a few guards and servants in the kitchen on night duty. He walked down the hallway and took the stairs downstairs.He found himself stopping in front of Liora's room. He could even hear her heartbeating softly from inside. Her scent flooded his brain. He closed his eyes, putting his hand on the door handle, but trying to resist the urge to push the door open.He wanted to stroke her skin softly as she slept, and carry the child. "Push it," His wolf growled impati

    LIORAI HAD A SMILE plastered on my face as the woman came downstairs. She looked even more stunning when she got close, and she exuded such a powerful aura that it felt like everyone disappeared as she approached me. I looked around and realized that everyone around had actually faded away, giving me and the beautiful woman space.“You are the new girl, are you not?“ she asked me with a slight accent that made her even more exotic.I nodded, swallowing with some difficulty. Why was I suddenly wary of this woman as she pierced me with her gaze?“And you have a baby,“ the woman said, looking at Jade. “I was wondering what the whole commotion was about down here. I did not know it was a "welcome home from the hospital" party.“She had a smile on her face and was speaking in low tones, but for some reason, I did not feel relaxed with her. My guard was up.“What’s its name?” she asked, peering into the baby carrier.I subconsciously gripped the handle tighter and said in a grim voice. “Hi
