~Amara~"Did you hear anyone mention his name?"Grandma asked me, I tilted my head to the side and pretended as though I was deep in thought, "No, I didn't hear anything, what about you?"I asked Grandma in return."I think I didn't hear anything too," Nico groaned at our teasing and I smiled. My eyes wandered around and a picture on the wall captured my attention.It was a picture of a chubby boy with dark shoulder-length hair. Nico tried to hold my hand to stop me from going to see the pictures but I slipped away."That is Nico when he was six years old. He was grumpy when the photographer took the picture because I had denied him ice cream. He had eaten a lot that day."Grandma stood up and joined me to look at the pictures."Grandma, I thought we were supposed to forget about the past and move on with life. Isn't that what you always told me?"Nico complained.Despite the chubby part, he looked cute. I think he had good looks while growing up. The green eyes stood out even though he w

~Amara~I woke up to the annoying siren noise of the alarm,reminding me that campus was on again.The weeks passed pretty fast and it made me feel as though some time was robbed from me.It was never boring with Nico around. I helped my Dad with the work in his office and that gave me a chance to spend more time with Nico.My father asked Patricia if she wanted to take over Luna's office and help out in pack activities but she declined and even broke down.I think it reminded her of the dark past that she was trying hard to forget.Dad didn't want to push Patricia that hard,he let her be and respected her decision.Patricia said that all she wanted was to stay at home and take care of her husband and kids.All she wants is to build a home.No matter the reasons behind what made her make such a decision,it warmed my heart. Patricia said that she doesn't want anything to do with power.All she wants is to live a calm life.Dad and Patricia visited Grandma twice in the human city and each time

~Amara~Nico and I woke up from the deep slumber that we were in, "Nico…"I called in a worried voice as my heart pounded wildly against my ribcage as though it would escape in the next second.Fear crept into my heart and I subconsciously wrapped my hand around Nico so tightly and shut my eyes. I wish I could close my ears too so that I couldn't hear the noise that came from the open window. The commotion reminded me of when I was seven years old when my mother died in war. This is how it started, it all started with commotion which resulted in the loss of innocent souls. Even though I was seven years old, I was old enough to understand and know what was going on."Amara, Nico, where are you?''I heard my father's voice and more tears flowed from my eyes. I could feel the fear in his voice in my head. He was afraid that he would lose me the way he lost my mother eleven years ago."I'm in my room, Dad, "I responded to his question through the mind link."Both of you come downstairs to o

~Amara~"Nico…Nico…"I called while shaking his hand slightly but,I was only met by silence.Well,I wasn't expecting him to talk to me.At least he could just give me a sign that he was still with me,like squeezing my hand.The doctors rushed to the sides of the bed and asked me to step aside so that they could check on him."Please don't give up on life and me, Nico."I whispered, tears rolling down my cheeks."You need to save him.He needs to survive.He must survive because that is what though people do and I know Nico is tough."I told the doctor who were busy rubbing the two defibrillator paddle."No! My son can't die. Please doctors save him."Patricia cried painfully beside me and I hugged her so tightly.I felt a pair of heavy arms around us and I didn't need to turn my head to know whom it was.I let Dad hug us because we needed that comfort at the moment. I momentarily tilted my head to look at him and I saw worry and Unexplainable emotions behind those light blue irises which resem

~Amara~Fear crept into my heart when I heard Patricia's words.Just a few minutes ago, I was about to lose Nico and now I'm going to lose him again? Why was this world so unfair to me? Why is it always me who loses someone that means a lot to me?Why? Just why?Why is the moon goddess so unjust to me? Did she give me back to Nico only for him to slip away from my tight grip again?I raised my head to look at Dad but he was quiet…I wanted him to say something about Patricia's words,just anything.A word of hope would l be enough to help ease the pain that my heart was undergoing.Just two words,"Don't go!"I wanted to hear those words come from my Dad's lips so badly.However,it seemed as though he was not shaken by Patricia's words and that only made me more worried.An alpha is the one who decides who stays in the pack and who is supposed to leave. If Dad decides that Nico and her mother won't be staying in our pack again.I will have no choice but to accept his decision because there i
