LOGINAurora “I know you are worried and have lots of questions. However, the matter concerning your biological dad isn't something discussed in Shadowveil. The kingdom never speaks about him, as it reminds us of that brutal night,” he says to me, still holding my gaze.“But I will get you the answers you need by dawn, if that would take the burden off your shoulders and make you feel better.”An unexpected smile crept across my face, one I hadn't even intended to show. “Thank you, Kelvin. I would be so grateful for that,” I said, and he responded with a warm smile of his own.After dinner, Kelvin led me back towards my floor, but halfway through, he abruptly stopped in his tracks and turned to face me. I was about to ask what was wrong when he spoke first.“My auntie Martina possessed a very unique gift among the numerous other gifts she was blessed with. And being her direct blood, you should also have multiple, if not all, of her gifts and more. That brings me back to the topic of the p
Aurora“Hey… why did you do that?” I asked, lightly hitting him over the shoulders.“That’s because you weren’t looking.”“But I was,” I countered immediately.He shook his head, a teasing smile tugging at the corner of his lips. “Liar. You can’t even miss the hint written all over your face.”And he was right. We both burst into laughter, the sound carrying easily through the quiet surroundings. The day had gone so smoothly and perfectly, almost as though the events of the previous night had never happened.For a moment, it was easy to forget the fear, the questions, and the uneasiness that had settled inside me.Kelvin had taken me on a tour around the mansion, and I had to admit, it was a wealthy pack. An ancient one, filled with countless riches, mysteries, hidden histories, and so many other things I was yet to uncover.Every corner seemed to hold a story of its own.Still, somehow, it didn’t feel like I had seen enough. If anything, seeing all those things had only made my curio
Damian“You had too many toxins in your system by the time you were brought here. It had already become severe because the toxins were slowly consuming your system, and your wolf’s healing abilities were limited, or even nonexistent. The only way was to make a certain critical decision.”My eyes narrowed as I stared at him. “Which was?”“To give you a significantly higher dose of the antidote, one strong enough to neutralize the level of toxicity in your system. But, of course, such a high dosage came with a greater risk of dangerous side effects.”My eyes narrowed further as I tried to understand what he was saying. Something about the way he spoke made it clear that there was more to it than he was letting on, and Doctor Andrew seemed to notice the confusion written across my face.“The antidote, when administered in such a high dosage, usually has two dangerous effects. One, its activity can also slow down the heartbeat of the individual alongside the toxins already affecting the b
DamianHe never responded immediately. He only glared at me with that strange contradiction between professionalism and confusion, as though he was trying to blend both expressions together.The door to the room burst open, stealing the moment, and Dad rushed in, accompanied by Mr. Williams and two women I barely recognized, though somehow, I felt as though I should know them. Their faces looked vaguely familiar.“Damian… thank the Moon.”Dad's voice was thick with relief as he rushed toward me and pulled me into a firm embrace.“I never knew I would get to see those bright eyes of yours again so soon.”His voice cracked on the last few words.And that was unusual.Dad was a strong man. The kind of man who rarely allowed anything to break him, regardless of how unbearable the circumstances became. Not even family matters could easily shake him. Not even his mate, Mum. Not even the pack.Yet here he was, holding me as though he had almost lost me, like he had before I passed out.I was
DamianThe room was eerily still. My skin prickled in a strange, unsettling way, the sensation immediately reminding me of a certain place I never wanted to find myself in again.I tried to turn and move away, but my body felt stiff, like molten magma. My feet were glued firmly to the ground.I was shocked, confused, and…Then I heard it. Her voice came from behind me. My breath hitched. My brows pulled together. Rage slammed into every part of me.I tried to turn toward her, putting everything I had into it, but I just couldn't. She was grinning wickedly, like the silly, pathetic witch she was, leaning slightly forward until her head rested confidently over my shoulder, as though she had every right to invade my space.The area of my skin where she touched burned with her cursed energy. The sensation crawled beneath my flesh like fire. My fingers curled tightly into fists, but even my arms remained stiff and immovable.“What have you done to me?” I demanded.A humorless chuckle escap
LiamBut instead, he stood firm, his arms buried inside his pants pockets.Half of his body looked as though it had passed through fire or something equally horrific. His eyes looked drained, his lips pressed into a thin line, and his scent carried a mixture of stench, dirt, and death.But I didn’t dwell on any of that.If not for anything else, that would have been the least of my worries now.Raymond had always been silly at times when it came to making decisions, and sometimes he could be a weakling who somehow managed to get himself into one trouble or another, just as he had gotten himself out of several times in the past.“You came,” was the only fragile sound that left my lips.But what I never expected was the broken laugh that escaped his lips.“Oh… I would have cursed like hell if I so much as missed a tiny section of this brutality,” he replied in a tone that sounded more like satisfaction than anything I had expected.That made my weakened brows rise as I studied his featu
Aurora It’s almost noon by the time I left my quarters. The evening air breeze was warm and cozy, sending a slight chill down my spine. I stood alongside the other omegas that had assembled to welcome Alpha Lucas’s first son, Damian. Rumor had it that he had been out of the pack for almost five
Slight trigger warning. Abuse... just for this chapter. Please bear with me, as we take Aurora on her journey to being unstoppable. Aurora “I’m so sorry. I never knew it would turn out that way,” Mia says for the umpteenth time in one week now. “It was never your fault either,” I said to Mia
Aurora The sun had just set at its usual spot, casting a warm blue-golden glow into this shabby room I occupied in the servant quarters. I breathed in relief as an unprecedented excitement slowly slipped into my chest. It was morning again, yet another day—but only that today was different in a
Aurora “Nooo!” I screamed at the top of my voice, jumping up on my feet with panting breaths. Hot sweat beaded on my forehead as I straightened, my eyes rolling around.I was in my room.It was one of those relentless nightmares that always left me drenched, shaken to my very core.I didn’t waste
