River Colden
Past
I’ve been pacing back and forth in my room, unable to keep steady, and my hands starting to feel clammy as I wait for Keira to update me from inside the bathroom.
I knocked on the door two times and called out for her when I couldn’t hear any noise. “Kei? Is everything alright there?”
“Yeah! Everything’s fine! Just waiting.” She said with a relaxed tone so I knew there was nothing to worry about, but even with that reassurance, I couldn’t help but still be worried.
Half an hour ago she broke an unexpected news to me. A news every man would either be frightened with or extremely excited for. In my case, I was the latter.&nbs
“We’re going to be a family again and I’m going to make that happen no matter what it takes.” River said as his grip on my arm tightened and his signature blue eyes stared into mine smolderingly. There was a time I would be ecstatic to have a child with nobody but him - my River, my Alpha. A time wherein becoming a family with us as parents would have made me the happiest woman alive. A time where I would look forward to waking up and seeing him next to me in bed with our little pup in his arms. But that time has long been gone ever since that day five years ago and I know damn well that it was never going to come back again. “I don’t know what fantasy has been going on inside your head, but you’ve lost every chance you’ve had of being with me or becoming a family together a long time ago, River. You need to let me go or else.” I said to him, staring back with intensity in my eyes that was the same as his. He needed to get the message that there was no way in hell I would allow
Titus BaneMadness. If there was one word I could describe the current situation right now, that would be it.When some of the warriors in my Pack arrived, everyone in the hotel was perplexed and at the same time scared. I realized that our sudden presence was very intimidating and because of that, I had to make use of a few connections and get everyone that wasn't needed in the hotel out of the place immediately as we didn’t want to garner any more unwanted attention.Ten minutes later and ten wolves who'd made sure nobody, not a single human being, was no longer in the vicinity, we were gathered in the lobby of the hotel to figure out the next step in our plan, which was to be honest, wasn’t really anything spectacular.
When I was a little girl, I often had recurring dreams. I say recurring because they were ones that I’ve already dreamt about more than ten times and it just kept coming back again and again. These dreams were so vivid that I always remembered them even after waking up, but the thing that I couldn’t ever pinpoint were the faces that I saw every time I dreamt it. The first scene would be me lying down and my point of view was something that looked like a crib. I would know because of the wooden railings on the side and the crib mobiles that hung above. They were specific crib mobiles too. That of nature and the night sky with forest trees, mountains, clouds, stars, and the beautiful moon being the brightest out of them. I raise my tiny hands and try to reach up for it, but my arms are far too short to do so. Instead, two heads pop up from out of nowhere and they’re looking at me, smiling widely, but I can’t make up their faces. It’s impossible because there’s a blur around it.
“Unfortunately, it’s because of your rare gifts that created such an uproar. Especially after you were born.” Sho continued since he must have noticed I was slowly separating myself from the conversation out of shock.“Huh? What about my birth?” I moved further to the edge of my seat, nervousness encompassing me.Sho bit his lip rather nervously, too, as he fiddled with his fingers. “There was a rumor that the Luna’s daughter would be born with the greatest healing power and many were eager and hopeful for such, but with great power came a price because others became greedy as well. Specifically, the two Packs that banded together and took away the Luna.”I felt my heart break instantly at his words and I almost slipped f
“Neo, my love, come here! Come to mommy!” I called out for my little boy and he swiftly turned to me, his two-toned hair swaying to the side and his smile widened across his face.Without a second thought, my arms opened wide for him, waiting to feel my son in my arms. He’s running as fast as he can. Those little legs of his are taking one step forward each second as he continues to let out the cutest soft giggles.As soon as he reaches where I am, I take him in my arms and pull him close to me, holding him tightly and we spin around. Neo is laughing even louder now, the kind of laugh where he doesn’t hold back. He’s the happiest he’s ever been and it warms up my heart knowing that it’s with me.“Mommy, can yo
I start to cry again. It’s all I’ve been doing aside from all of the research. Somehow, it’s become my second nature. I don’t stop myself from letting tears stream down my face. I don’t think I can, anyway.Somehow, it’s like the pain and heartbreak has been embedded inside of me and all of the tears come out without stopping.“Keira!” I hear my name called out just right after the sound of a door being forced open.When I look up, it’s Titus. Though I can barely make him out as my eyes are blurry from all the tears, I could sense his presence and I could smell his strong scent.Funny how I found my mate, someone I thought had long stopped
River ColdenI couldn’t stay still all the way back home to Norway. As much as I didn’t want to leave Keira, I didn’t have much of a choice either.I knew I couldn’t stay long, but with everything that’s happened, all I wanted to do was be there for her. Unfortunately, she felt otherwise.Keira was heartbroken. She was devastated to her core and I wouldn’t have known what was going on had I not heard murmurs and whispers from others in that ass wipe’s Pack.I couldn’t believe it at first, but it all started to make sense. Besides, why would someone lie about her past?Keira was all alone. Her entire family and Pack had
River Colden Two Hours Ago “What am I doing here?” Skye asked the second he swung open the door to my office and he leaned against the doorframe, glaring at me. “It’s nice to see you too, little brother. Sit down.” I gestured to the seat in front of me, but he merely raised an eyebrow at me. “I don’t listen to your orders.” He huffed before looking away. God damn it. I would use my Alpha tone on him, but I don’t really have the time nor the patience. Plus, I needed to be on his good side for this. I’m tired and jetlagged from my flight, but if not now there was no other chance to get this done so I might as well get this over with. “Fine. Do whatever you want. Just hear me out. I didn’t call for you to fight with you, Skye. I…” I cleared my throat and pushed myself to say it. “I need your help.” In all six years of me as Alpha, I’ve never asked anyone for help. Sure, my Beta and Gamma come in from time to time, but that was their job. They’re there to guide me to protect a
