Semua Bab Wanted by my ex mate : Bab 21 - Bab 30

Aurora.I sat curled on my bed for what felt like ages, my arms wrapped around my knees. The world outside had shifted, my damp hair had dried, and the sunlight was fading fast. I didn’t even know what I was feeling anymore. So I just stopped trying to feel. Thinking had only brought pain and confusion, so letting my mind go blank felt like the only peace I could find.I leaned back, pressing myself against the cool wall, my eyes fixed on the locked door. I was completely still, as if frozen by exhaustion that went deeper than my bones. I turned slightly, hoping to glimpse the sunset, but the window view was blocked as I should’ve expected. The encircling cliffs of this lifeless valley loomed outside, hiding the sky. Darkness was creeping in.Then the smells hit me, thick, spicy, mouthwatering. Something was frying, something rich and hearty was simmering. My stomach twisted with longing. I sat up straighter, almost against my will. I couldn’t remember food ever smelling that good. Th

Aurora.The first thing I noticed was the buzzing.Low. Persistent. My phone.I groaned, pulling the blanket tighter around my body, hoping to drown it out. The morning light hadn't even fully spilled through the curtains, and my limbs felt too heavy, like I was swimming through sleep. My hand reached out instinctively, not for the phone, but for Kaiser.My fingers brushed empty sheets.I froze.My hand searched again, blindly, desperately. The cold side of the bed was always his territory. But it was vacant. Neatly tucked, as though no one had even laid there last night.“Kaiser?” My voice was barely a whisper, hoarse with sleep.No answer. Just the buzzing again, now louder. Urgent.I sat up straight. A thick knot formed in my stomach as I grabbed the phone off the nightstand, expecting to see maybe a message from him.But my screen exploded with missed calls, texts, and a voicemail notification, all from one name: Ama's School.My breath caught. A chill ran down my spine.I tapped

Aurora."Ama, please just sit still for a second.""But Mommy, I still don't get it!" Ama bounced on the bed, her tiny legs swinging off the edge as she hugged her plush wolf to her chest. Her dark curls were wild around her face, cheeks flushed from excitement or maybe curiosity. “Who is Alpha Ethan really?”I sighed, combing through her hair with my fingers, gently detangling the ends as she wiggled beneath me. Her voice carried so much energy it practically buzzed in the air.I hesitated. The words formed in my throat, thick and heavy like honey refusing to pour. But this talk was long overdue.“He’s your father, Ama,” I said finally, quietly.She twisted around so fast I nearly dropped the brush. “Wait what?! Like… my daddy?” Her eyes widened like twin moons.I nodded slowly, waiting for the storm to hit. “Yes. Alpha Ethan is your biological father.”Ama stared at me, blinking. Her bottom lip trembled for a second, then stilled. “But… why didn’t you tell me before?” Her voice wave

Aurora.When I opened my eyes that morning, the first thing I did was reach for my phone, hoping to scroll through something mundane, memes, baby pictures, maybe a random cooking video.Instead, I was met with a storm.Dozens of notifications blinked on the screen like warning lights. Twitter. Instagram. WhatsApp. Even obscure blogs I didn’t know existed had my name splattered across their headlines."The Cursed wolf: Aurora in Shadow?""Evidence Suggests Aurora's Powers Are Not From the Moon Goddess!""Leaked Photos Show Evidence of a Curse—Is the Pack at Risk?"I sat up in bed so fast I got dizzy. My thumb scrolled furiously, tapping through article after article, my heart pounding louder with every new headline. My face stared back at me, pale, wide-eyed, captured mid-expression at the last ceremony. Someone had even edited dark shadows under my eyes, making me look like some possessed doll.My breathing quickened. “No… no no no,” I whispered, gripping the sheets. “This isn’t real.

Aurora.I barely had the strength to sit up when the door to my room clicked shut behind Ethan, the Alpha. His retreating footsteps echoed down the hall, leaving a hollow silencebehind. The sharp, gnawing pain in my stomach hadn’t eased—if anything, it was worse than before. I pressed my hand against my abdomen, the dull ache twisting into a fiery burn, making me gasp softly.My mind raced, fingers trembling as I reached for the bell beside my bed and rang for a maid. Almost immediately, a soft knock and the familiar face of Miri, the head maid, appeared in the doorway. Her eyes were filled with so much worry. Honestly, she's the only maid I could trust right now.“Miri, please,” I croaked, trying to keep my voice steady, “I feel terrible. This felt like a poison I've been taking for a while now.”She stepped inside, carefully closing the door behind her. “Miss Aurora, are you feeling poisoned? You don’t think someone is trying to harm you?” Her voice was hushed.I nodded weakly, swal
