Aurelia's Point Of View:I sat down in my small, dimly lit room, engrossed in the pages of a thrilling novel. The world within the book offered a brief escape from the harsh reality I had been living through. Angela, my loyal and compassionate friend, walked in, her footsteps barely making a sound on the creaky wooden floor. She cleared her throat gently, breaking the silence that enveloped me."Hey, Aurelia," Angela said softly, concern etched into her features. "How are you holding up?"I closed the book and looked up at her, offering a faint but grateful smile. "I'm doing as well as I can, Angela. Thanks to you, I'm safe now."Angela's eyes softened, and she shook her head. "You don't have to thank me, Aurelia. I couldn't let them take you."I nodded, my heart swelling with gratitude for my friend's unwavering support. "I know, but I still appreciate everything you've done for me."Curiosity danced in Angela's eyes as she pulled up a chair and sat down beside me. "So, what's your n
Genevieve's Point Of ViewI knew I was my own downfall, and no matter what I did, Alpha Augustine would still punish me. All I could do now was to plead with my stepdaughter Aurelia for kidnapping her and trying to kill her. I could be locked up for more than twenty years in a dungeon for my crimes. And I was scared to death that my mate Bryan may find out about Casey being my daughter, which no one knows for the past twenty-three years of her life.As I scanned the crowd, my heart sank as I saw Bryan join the gathering, his eyes filled with concern and curiosity. Panic surged within me, knowing that his presence might unearth the dark secret I had harbored for so long. The thought of losing him, the only source of solace in my turbulent life, was unbearable.Summoning every ounce of courage I had left, I rushed towards Aurelia, my knees hitting the ground hard as I knelt before her, tears streaming down my face. "Aurelia, please," I begged, my voice trembling with desperation. "I'm s
Bryan's Point of viewI couldn't believe my eyes. Was that Aurelia? I thought she was dead. So, Genevieve only lied to me. This was unfair. How could I have believed her? I neglected my own daughter so much, and now I feel like the worst father in the world. I felt like I let my own daughter down. I felt like I had ignored her when she needed me the most.My heart pounded in my chest as I walked up to my daughter, each step heavy with the weight of regret and longing."Aurelia," I called out, my voice choked with emotion.She turned towards me, her eyes widening in disbelief, and then she rushed into my arms, embracing me with a warmth that washed away the years of guilt and sorrow. "Father. I missed you so much," she whispered, tears streaming down her cheeks."I'm so sorry, Aurelia," I whispered back, my own tears mixing with hers. "I'm so sorry for neglecting you. I should have watched over you and taken care of you. It's all my fault. I thought I lost you.""You didn't lose me, Da
Danciana's Point Of View I found myself standing at the edge of the dense forest, hidden in the cloak of shadows, my heart racing like a wild stallion. The tantalizing whispers of intrigue had reached my ears, carried by the winds of gossip that blew through our pack like a tempest. Alpha Augustine, the unyielding leader of the neighboring pack, had issued an ominous decree—the arrest of Genevieve, Aurelia's stepmother. I couldn't simply ignore the electric curiosity that surged through me. I had to know every detail of what was transpiring.With each cautious step, I ventured further into the foreign territory that belonged to our neighboring pack. The scent of unknown wolves hung heavy in the air, a strange and potent mixture with the familiar earthy aroma of the woods. It wasn't long before the clearing came into view, a bustling hub of activity teeming with pack members.My keen eyes roved through the crowd, searching for the familiar faces of my own pack mates. I approached Ezra
Aurelia's Point Of ViewI took a deep breath, my heart heavy with the burden of forgiveness and reconciliation. "Dante," I began, "I know that Vivian was involved in what happened to me, and I can't deny the pain and betrayal I felt. But I also know that she was manipulated by Genevieve, just as I was."Dante regarded me with a mixture of pride and concern. "Aurelia, forgiveness is a noble path, but it's not always easy. Are you sure this is what you want?"I nodded firmly, my resolve unwavering. "Yes, Dante. I believe that forgiveness can heal wounds and strengthen bonds. Vivian was once a dear friend, and I want to offer her a chance to make amends. Maybe, in doing so, we can rebuild the trust we once shared."Dante's expression softened, and he gently squeezed my shoulder. "You have a compassionate heart, my love. If that is your wish, then we shall go to Vivian and extend our forgiveness."Tears of gratitude welled up in my eyes as I embraced my mate. It was a step toward healing
AURELIA'S POV My eyes roamed over the area as I walked slowly toward the pack's plaza. I was walking on a deserted road and I did not want to get in between the other pack members, knowing I was about to round the corner. Taking a deep breath and then I sighed, knowing I was about to receive hurtful stares from any one who happens to see me."I look good, right?" I asked myself, as I looked down at my dress. I was given this dress five years ago and it was worn out.It was surprisingly the only dress I had with its wool and designs all out but then I had nothing to wear.Taking a deep breath, again, and different scents belonging to the pack members wafted into my nose. Nevertheless, I took a step toward the corner and I came face to face with the pack members I dreaded. "Hey, look who's here." A male voice shouted out loud and all heads turned to look at me."You can do this." I chanted to myself, inwardly, as I continued to take slow steps.The plaza was just a few distances away
DANTE'S POV"What is going on?" I said to myself as soon as I felt Aurelia's around my body. My body went still, as I couldn't believe what was happening."Save me…" She repeated and my head snapped to look down at her. "She can get close to me!" Those words rang in my head and mind."She is not affected by my aura." I said to myself, as my eyes shone.I couldn't believe what was happening as it was a pain in the ass that no one could come a meter close to me.My head snapped to look at my Beta, Lucas, at his words, "Get away from the Alpha." He yelled and a deep growl resounded from my chest. Immediately after, Lucas marched toward me with an angry expression on his face. His eyes were set on Aurelia and he just wanted to get her away from me. He looked surprised and shocked at the same time. I couldn't blame him and as he stepped a meter close to me, in the next second, his eyes widened in pain and his legs shook and his head was bent, in obeisance to me. "This is not happenin
AURELIA'S POVI twisted and turned on the woody bed as I opened my eyes.My entire body hurts and I knew I was in an unfamiliar place considering the smell in the air and the atmosphere.It was very dark in here and it was as if the whole place had been deprived of light for a long ass time.In the next second, I sat up on the woody bed and looked around.I could see everything clearly and I gasped in great shock at what I saw."How did I get here?" I asked myself as my eyes roamed around, observing everyone that laid in the room.I woke up in the middle of people dressed in rags, sleeping on wooden beds."They are slaves!" These words resounded in my head as I held onto it."How did I get here?" I asked myself.I tried to comprehend who would hate me so much to turn me into a slave. My thoughts trailed back to what had happened at the plaza.I was able to say a word, just so the Alpha could come save me but then he looked back at me, with a calm look in his eyes.It felt like if I w
