Chapter 21: The Only Reason I Returned

-Aurelia-“Au-Aurelia?!” Madison’s voice was good to hear, even despite how loud she was. I looked around nervously. I didn’t want anyone walking up on two half naked young women standing in the forest. Where it was clear that I was nervous, Madison seemed not to have a care in the world. “Aurelia, I…I can’t believe this!” Madison rushed toward me, an ecstatic look in her eyes. Nevermind the fact that we both were bare in the moonlight. She wrapped her arms around me. “I’m so glad to see you again!” “Ha, thanks!” I chuckled. “It’s-I’m glad to see you too.” Madison pulled away from her. “What are you doing here?” she asked, as she steadily began to put on the remainder of her clothes. “I…well, I came back home for my…” It was hard to even mention her mom around others. “For?” Madison pressed, but not in an intolerable sort of way. She was curious as I remembered her to be. “My mom,” I finally replied. “Oh! Ms. Char! How is she? I think about her often. Is everything oka

Chapter 22: Reconnecting with Mads

The hunting hour was close, and I was so glad for it. I needed the break, from everyone and everything. My thoughts were still in a whirlwind from that day when I saw her. I was glad that Josephine had gone home to visit her father because being around her seemed to only make me feel worse about the whole ordeal.Why? Because I really wanted to see her again. I stood on the hill overlooking the vast land owned by the Sno pack, anticipating the moment where I tore away from this human body and roamed free with my beast, Maxim.“We should find her.” he suggested in the back of my mind.Immediately, I scoffed, annoyed and intrigued by the idea. Annoyed because it was probably the worst idea that he could think of; trying to find a woman that not only did I reject, but also manipulated her memory to forget almost everything that she knew.I was still intrigued, however, by the terrible idea, because simply put, I just wanted to see her again.“We will run into her, one way or another. It

Chapter 23: Reconnecting with Mads Pt. 2

-Aurelia-“So, are you sure it’s a good idea for you to be meeting me like this?” I asked Madison as she sat across from me at the table of the small cafe we sat at.She sipped on her black coffee. “Why wouldn’t it be a good idea?” I chuckled. “Don’t want you getting into trouble for associating with me,” I told her. “Seems that pack life…wolf life in general is far more strict than I previously thought. I’m learning that more and more every day.” Madison sighed. “Colter Sloan cannot tell me who to talk to and who not to talk to,” Madison said. “If he has a problem with me talking to you then…well, he’ll just have to get over it.” “Okay,” I laughed a little. “If you say so.”“Besides,” Madison went on to say. “Not like I told him that you were even here,” she shrugged. “He doesn’t even know that you’re back.”I sat there quiet, sheepishly staring down at my drink. Madison seemed to catch my sudden awkward silence.“Right? He…he doesn’t know that you’re here…I mean-I-I didn’t tell hi

Chapter 24: Charlene's Condition

-Aure-Mom had been doing pretty well over the last few days with the new herbs that I’d been getting from the shop.Her walk had gotten a little peppier, and her energy levels had improved a bit. Sure, she was still a bit weak but the little improvements were better than nothing at all.“Hey, sweetie?” I heard mom call me as I finished brewing her special tea. “Yeah, mom?” “How do you feel about pizza tonight?”Pizza? Both me and Sephara were surprised by the suggestion, as mom hadn’t been able to eat anything so heavy like that for a long time.I chuckled. “Yeah, sure! If you’re down, I’m down.” My phone began to ring. “But I’d still have some soup or broth on hand just in case.” “Yes, hon, I know, I know.” I could hear her replying impatiently as I picked up the phone.“Only trying to look out for my best girl!” I teased before answering. “Hello”It was Madison. Again.Ever since our little meet up at the cafe, she’d been hassling me nonstop to not only take her up on her offer t

Chapter 25: Mom & the Moors

-Aure-Alpha? Of the Moors? “Moors?” I emphasized the word after she confessed this. What on earth was I supposed to do with this information?“Yes, Aure,” she said. “You heard me correctly. It’s a wolf pack that lives deep in the Moors, a place quite majestic in its way.”“Mom, you’ve got to be kidding.”“I wish I was,” she chuckled tensely. “It’s not the easiest place to live when you’re a human-born wolf.”“What?” I had never heard of something like this before. To be honest, I had never heard of any of this before. All of it was new to me. What my mother was telling was simply furthering the concept of my mind being blown.She sighed. At this point, I had noticed that she was showing signs of fatigue and so I helped her to her favorite reclining chair, and propped her feet up.Mom leaned back in her chair, and then continued to explain. “That’s why I never told you, Aure,” she said. “About your true nature. Your father and I thought that you were like me, and he felt that since he

Chapter 26: The True Daughter of the Moors

-Aure-I was wholly invested in mom's history at this point. Sitting on edge, as I pressed and waited for her to tell me how she and my father met.“How?” I could tell that there was an interesting story behind it.“He, uh, he was the enemy,” she said. “Your father, he was Sigma, the strong lone wolf of the Moors. And well, your grandparents had gotten a little too arrogant, I guess. They were powerful, the strongest mated couple in the territory. That power went to their head, and they moved in on the Sigma’s territory, deciding that together they could take him.” she laughed. “They were wrong.” “Did he kill them?” I asked.“No,” she answered. “But he took the pack from them, and banished them. And…for good measure,” she paused, a slick grin on her face. “He took their daughter as his.”“What?” Eyes wide, shocked and bewildered, I asked, “Dad-wait, are you saying that you are a daughter of the Moors?”She chuckled. “That’s a…regal way of saying it.” said mom. “The thing is, I never co

Chapter 27: Unforeseen Reunion

-Colt-It felt like days since the last time I talked to my best friend and Beta.Mads was clearly angry with me after the last time that we’d spoken. It had begun to seem as if the only thing that I could do lately was upset her. “This doesn’t have anything to do with me, does it?” I heard Josephine say from behind me as I blankly stared in the bathroom mirror at my reflection. “Everything bad that happens between Mads and I isn’t always about you, love,” I said in the most cordial way that I could.Fortunately, Josephine actually wasn’t the most sensitive when it came to telling it like it is.“Ah, good. I was beginning to think that I was the center of her little universe.” She spoke in a teasing manner as she wrapped her arms around my wide torso, her naked breast pressed against my back as she said, “Maybe instead of guessing whether the girl is still upset with you, just go talk to her?” she asked. “Might be best that I give her some space, Jo.”“You’ve given her enough space,

Chapter 28: Reckoning with the Past

-Colter-“What are you doing here?” Her words hit me like a ton of bricks, knocking me out of my trance of how positively sexy she was.My wolf growled, and I knew that he felt the same thing that I felt at that moment. “Hello?” Madison irately followed. “She asked you a question! What? Are you following me now?”“No-yes, no, no!” I stumbled out. “I just needed to know who it was that you were meeting…who this ... .this... .it's you?” I asked.I sensed something different about her-something strong, and inhuman.She didn’t respond, only averted her gaze and took a shot of her drink.“You’re....no longer...human,” She scoffed, rolling her eyes. “So, now you’re telling me about myself? Is that it?” “Wh-no, no, that’s-that’s not what I was doing at all. I just-”There was no coming back from the fumble I just made. “Are you done making a fool of yourself, now?” I ignored Madison and turned my full gaze on Aurelia Smith. “You look good, Aurelia.” And oh did she? The sheer mesh romper

Chapter 29: An Unfixable Screw Up?

-Colter-I screwed up, I screwed up big time, and I didn’t have the first clue on how I should fix it.Realizing the extent to which I hurt Aurelia presented a near crippling pain to my heart. Here I was, thinking that I was doing her a favor, and it turned out to be one of the worst things that I could have ever done to her. I should have just been honest, but instead, I took the cowardly way out, and now, I was left with this mess.After the spat that was had between Aurelia and I, the thought to follow her came to mind for a moment. When I remembered the look in her eyes, however, I realized that it wouldn’t be the best idea. So, I wound up heading back to the packhouse to sulk in my self-loathing.“How could you!?” Madison growled angrily, catching me from behind. I turned around just as she shoved me aggressively into the wall. “Mads, I-”“No!” she snarled. “No! No more excuses! There is nothing that you can say to justify what you did tonight! Bursting into a friend-date? Sti

Chapter 30: A Demand of Rejection

-Aure- I knew that mom would be disappointed if I’d come home early that night. She wasn’t asleep yet, as it seemed that in me deciding to go spend a night on the town gave her her second wind that evening. Mom hadn’t been that lively since my return home. I didn’t have it in me to tell her that everything was ruined by an almost ex-mate of mine. Though, to hear that I had even the spark of a life outside of taking care of her would have probably made her feel even better still.Either way, one thing for sure was that I really didn’t want to discuss it at the moment.Seeing Colter Sloan again lit a fire in me that I’d thought burned out a long time ago. “I thought he rejected us,” I whispered to myself. “He did,” said my counterpart. She was just as frustrated as I was.“Then why did I still feel that jolt, when he touched me? Why?! Why did I feel the same that I did the first time we met?”“I don’t know.” Sephara spoke with a calm frustration, the complete opposite to my own. “Co
