Chapter 91

Aurora’s POVIt was hardly dawn yet, but the guards recognized me and thus didn't stop me from walking in at such an early (or late?) hour.As I stepped into the foyer, I noticed there was a mist in the air, causing everywhere to look hazy, like a sheer curtain or film was placed over it.My senses were alight with a tingling sensation that spread throughout my body, and I nearly sneezed. I didn't have to wonder whose work this was. Seraphina was the only one that could produce something like this.In the past couple of days, I had gotten used to identifying enchantments and I waved my hand in the air without much flourish.The mist dispelled itself, but it left traces, and those traces led upstairs.My lips were pressed into a thin line, but I didn't back down. I wasn't going to.I went up the stairs, and with every few steps I took, I waved my hands, spreading my energy outward with controlled ease to dispel the mists. There was a familiar scent in the air but I couldn't place it.

Chapter 92

Alaric’s POVMy chest ached with a kind of pain that wasn’t there before.Even when the day broke, and I got ready to receive the surrounding pack delegates, it didn't stop.“Should I come out there with you?’ Seraphina asked as I got dressed.“No need,” I said stiffly. It was the most I had said to her after Aurora had left that morning. I couldn’t even look at her, much less look at myself.How had I let things get this far?Yes, I had feelings for Seraphina, and I knew I wanted to explore them.But wishes were one thing. Getting caught having sex with her by my wife was another.“Ric,” She sniffled, and I clenched my jaw, trying to keep calm. I finished buttoning my shirt and grabbed my jacket, about to leave the bedroom.Suddenly her hand reached to grasp mine, and I pulled my arm away, refraining from touching her.Seraphina was crying.It should have hurt more than it didInstead I was thinking of how Aurora never let herself cry in front of me.I pressed my lips together, tryin

Chapter 93

Aurora’s POV"Hey,wait up, Luna,” a familiar voice piped up behind me as soon as I exited the meeting hall.I didn't need to turn around to know it was Eva, and I pursed my lips, pausing in my steps as she caught up with me.Her heels clicked on the stone streets, like music to my ears.“What are you in a tizzy?” Eva surveyed my expression. She still held one of the champagne glasses in her hand, even though now, we were more than a couple of meters away from the hall.Frowning at the glass I replied, “You didn't communicate to me all this time. And you expect me to answer you?” I asked with a brow raised.She scoffed, flipping her hair back.“Come on, don;t be upset. I was really busy,” She sipped her champagne, taking my hand and tugging on it. “Come, we have a lot to talk about.”I wasn't angry at her, not really.I was angry at myself.I was angry that i still had 9 days to handle things in this packI was angry that I had let Alaric’s actions affect me. Deep inside, even when you

Chapter 94

Aurora’s POVMy words made Eva raise a neatly trimmed brow at me.“Right,” her brusque, sardonic tone didn't reduce one bit. “And how do you intend to ask her?”“Not me,” I pointed at her. “You.”Eva’s confusion increased and I could see her brows knitting together so much it nearly formed one line. I nearly rolled my eyes at her. Sometimes she could be so deliberately obtuse, it was infuriating.“Oh by the Goddess,” I huffed. “You’re going to ask her.”“And… HOW would I do that? I don’t even want to ask about the WHY, either,” Eva told me.“You befriend her, and ask her. You’re here for the next couple of days,” I began to explain. “And you can easily get closer to her and ask.”Eva looked like she had a lot of things to say to that plan.“Why do you want to involve me with your schemes, Luna? Don’t tell me you have no one else to ask. You cannot involve a third party. Or fourth party, or whatever,”She sneered. “I don’t want to be a part of your marital issues.”“What’s your problem?

Chapter 95

Alaric’s POVThe meeting hall was full of murmurs. I presided over it, with Alpha Eric of the Kyrian pack and Alpha Xavier supporting.“Thank you all for coming,” I stood with my wine glass in hand, surveying the hall. My voice was loud enough to carry through to everyone, but still controlled, still calm. “I’m sure there doesn't need to be any explanation about what we are here for.”“The rogues,” Alpha Eric said. “And their methods.” I nodded.Alpha Jason of the Gale pack shifted, casting a look around before rising to his feet.A wave of murmurs started as soon as everyone noticed him. It was obvious why. After all, Alpha Jason was a rogue leader once, and this was the first time the Gale Pack had ever participated in such proceedings.“I have to say that we might be overestimating the skill of the rogues,” Alpha Jason was straightforward when he talked, the only quality in which I liked. “Or their ability to disrupt our packs. We don’t need to put too much effort into destroyin

Chapter 96

Aurora’s POVThe day finally came for Asher to be discharged.I had avoided going back to see Alaric during this time.News had filtered in, not rumors. But actual news, from both Eva and Elder Miriam, and also Lyra who was more in touch with the current gossip than I was.Eva had not met me directly since I asked her to help me befriend Seraphina. She had made contact. But she had taken precautions. She didn’t share meals with her, because I ended up informing her that Seraphina was a poison master. I had also given her a sachet to keep on her at all times, just in case. I wasn’t sure if Eva believed me but the next time she sent me a message, she had just returned from having lunch with Seraphina at a neutral meeting hall, a chance encounter she engineered to increase their friendship. It was easier because Eva was a known socialite and had invited other noblewomen from the Shadowpine Pack who wanted to befriend ber as well. And Seraphina seemed to enjoy the attention that being a p

Chapter 97

Seraphina’s POVWhat the hell was she doing?My frustration welled up in my chest. The dark energy I infused into my fingertips had nowhere else to go.The poison within that boy was already weak, and I had hoped to strengthen it with a bit of my powers, but this woman just had to intercept me.My eyes flashed with a glint as I watched Aurora pat Asher’s head. She pulled him into her arms.“His hair needs some brushing. You don’t mind, do you?” she asked but was already stroking his head gently, arranging his strands into something more well-kept. I could sense her essence in her, she was like light, pure, unfiltered, raw. I felt hungry just gazing at it. And as Asher was pulled into her space, that light enveloped him, weakening the poison further.“Can it not be done later?” I spoke up.Something told me I had to interfere. Asura was coiled around my chest, tightening with each passing second. It hurt and my smile became more fixed the longer time passed.Aurora only glanced at me w
