101. Disaster.

We spent the evening reading beautiful stories and having joyful giggles. Marcus read Caelum three books, then went upto a fourth when he had refused to go to sleep. I sat on the edge of the bed, and watched my son's eyelids grow heavy, his small body finally relaxing into sleep.When he was fully asleep, I tucked the covers around him and pressed a kiss to his forehead."Goodnight, my little superhero.""Goodnight, Mommy," he murmured, already half-asleep."Goodnight, Hero Doctor."Marcus smiled, he reached out and ruffled Caelum's hair."Goodnight, little man."We slipped out of the room, and closed the door softly behind us. The corridor was quiet now, the packhouse had already settled into the stillness of night."I should go," Marcus said, though he didn't make any move to leave."The elders have called for another meeting tomorrow, and I need to prepare for it.""Of course." I nodded, wrapping my arms around myself. "I understand."He hesitated, his eyes searched my face as if l

102. The Mask That We Wear

AriaThe cold from the air condition bit at my cheeks as I stood waiting inside the towering glass building that housed Vance Properties. My heart hammered loudly against my ribs, and each beat was a painful reminder of how close I was to losing everything I'd built and sacrificed for.Caelum's small hand was still clasped tightly in mine, and his comforting warmth was the only anchor that's keeping me from completely shattering."Mommy, why are you shaking?" His voice was so soft, and those gray eyes... so much like his father's, searched my face with an intelligence that never fails to unnerved me.I forced out a smile, and kneeled to his level. "I'm just a little bit cold, baby. That's all."I knew that he didn't believe me. He could always tell. My son could always see through my lies, and always sense the fear I tried so desperately to bury and hid from him. I always have to remind myself that he is just five. Going six in few month.Gerald had left a minute ago to check on Remus

103. The Weight of Duty.

RemusThe moment Aurora Vance walked into the conference room, I felt something shifted in the air. Like a tension that I couldn't explain. A pull that I couldn't resist.She was striking, there was no denying that. The sleek blonde wig, the dark-rimmed glasses, the impeccable business attire. She looked every inch the powerful businesswoman who had walked into my office months ago. And there was that pull, that same pull beneath the polished exterior that called to me in a way I couldn't understand. Thesame pull from month ago.Who's Aurora Vance?"Alpha Remus," she said, and extended her hand."As you already know, I'm Aurora Vance. I apologize again for the delay. My staff should have communicated better. I had to leave my annual leave to attend to this meeting, but I assure you, I'm fully prepared to discuss said the partnership."I took her hand, and the moment our skin came in contact, a jolt of electricity shot through me. Her eyes... those stormy gray eyes met mine, and for ju

104. The Escape.

As the conference room door clicked shut behind Remus and Marcus, I held my breath, and counted the seconds until their footsteps faded down the corridor.My heart was pounding so violently that I could barely hear anything else over the rush of blood in my ears. He had his doubt. I think he almost recognized me. That thought alone sent ice through my veins. But I had been so careful. The wig, glasses, I had worn the mask of Aurora Vance all perfectly well. And yet, I had caught that look of doubt and suspicion in Remus's eyes. He even looked as though the

105. The Serpent's Hunger.

SeleneThe Hart household, my childhood home was was a study in contradictions. It's a grand facade of elegance and civility that masked a festering rot beneath the surface.I had learned that lesson long ago, I had even experienced it firsthand in the way my mother's sweet words always concealed venom, and the way my father's calm silence spoke louder than any condemnation.I had arrived at my father's compound an hour ago, ostensibly to visit my parents, but really it was to keep an eye on the pest that had infested my territory for?Aria.My dear, pathetic, troublesome sister. Stepsister.The girl who should have just stayed gone, she should have just remained vanished into obscurity like the unwanted bastard that she was.Instead, she had returned. And worse, she had brought with her that gray eyed child.A child who gets on my nerves without even trying.I pushed the thought aside as I entered the dining room, my smile was already perfectly in place. My mother, was already seated

106. The Weight of Home

I inhaled the welcoming scent of my father's compound as I stepped through the front door. The scent is coming from the lavender flower my stepmother kept in the wooden the vases in every room. But beneath the sweet smell, there was the faint undertone of bitterness. And it had always lingered in this house like a ghost that refused to leave.Caelum's small hand felt warm in mine, aa his fingers curled tightly around my own. It was as if he could sense my tension."Mommy, why are you walking so fast?" he asked, while his little legs struggled to keep up with my hurried pace.I slowed down so he can catch up. "I'm sorry, baby. I'm just... tired. It's been a long day.""Was the acting too hard?" His beautiful gray eyes, looked up at me with such innocent concern."Yes, baby. The acting was a little bit hard. But it's over now. We're home."Home. But this place had never truly been home for me. It had been a cage and a prison where I'd spent my childhood learning to make myself small, i

107. The Serpent's Doubt.

SeleneAs I drive back to the packhouse, my hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, my knuckles white it was almost painful, as the conversation with Aria replayed in my mind on an endless loop.She said went to the neighboring town.Of course she did.And Remus just happened to be out in the human world at the exact same time.What a coincidence.I laughed bitterly. Coincidence. That's what she wanted me to believe. She expected me to accept that, to believe her with all the gullibility of a naive fool.But I was no fool. Selene had never been a fool. And I could feel it, the feeling was a certainty that burned in my veins. Aria was hiding something.But the question was, what?I pulled into the packhouse driveway, as my mind still churned with suspicion. I could barely contained rage.Aria wants take it all away from me.But I would never allow her. Not ever.Immediately I entered the packhouse, my expression shifted back to the carefully composed mask of serenity. The servants bo

108. The Weight of Suspicion.

RemusAria wasn't there.Meaning she wasn't in the pack yesterday.I felt my frustration build up, though I forced my expression to remain impassive. Selene was watching me.I knew there was a reason to her telling me this. Either she was looking for something or she was suspecting something.she has always been this way. She would watch you with those calculating eyes and miss nothing. I had known since long ago that my wife possessed an unsettling ability to read the spaces between words, and find meaning in the smallest gestures.She always finds reason to everything and right now she's trying to find reasons to whatever she's thinking about Aria."She went out, apparently," Selene continued, her tone was deceptively light. "The whole day. And she didn't care enough to inform anyone about where she was going or when she'd even be back."I set my fork down carefully, I tried to buy myself a moment to compose my thoughts. The whole day.That was the same day I was in Millbrook."And

109. The Weight of Truth.

AriaMarcus call came at dawn.I was expecting it, but I didn't expect it to come this early.I was already awake and sitting by the window in my room, while watching the sky turn from the dark black to gray. Caelum was still asleep in the bed behind me, his small form was curled beneath the covers, and his face was in a peaceful slumber.My baby sleeps so soundly, I thought. He's so unaware of the danger around us and I pray it remains so. Forever and always.When I had returned from Millbrook, I was exhausted and on edge, my nerves were already frayed from the encounter with Remus.Even though the meeting had been a success, the deal was signed, and the pack was satified. But the cost of my presence there had been high. I still remember the look in his eyes when he had asked if I had another name. And the way his gaze had lingered on my face, as if he was searching for something.It was like he knew.I'm not certain of that. Not yet. But he had suspected. And the Remus I knew, onc

110. The Shatter.

The kind of scream that tore from my throat wasn't the sound from human.It was the sound of my soul being ripped apart, and my heart being cleaved in two. It was of every nightmare that I had ever feared would manifest.I felt my legs gave out beneath me, and I began to fall, I was falling into an abyss from which there was no return. But before I could hit the floor, I felt strong arms wrapped around me, they caught me and held me against a warmth I barely registered."I've got you," Marcus's voice was in my ear, but it was hearing it from distant, faraway. "I've got you, Aria."But he didn't. No one does. Because the only person who had ever truly mattered, was gone.Caelum. His name was a desperate prayer to the goddess.My baby. My sweet, brave, wonderful little boy who had done nothing wrong except to exist, and being born to a mother who had brought nothing but danger into his innocent life.I was on the ground now, I realized. Marcus had slid down with me, with his back agai
