Chapter 16AuroraA twinge of sadness settled in the depth of my heart as I stared into the open field that sat below my window. Like a magnet, I felt an invisible force of attraction towards the field that made me crave it badly. Bored to death by sitting at home for days, I longed to spend my time in the field, running and enjoying the wind tossing my fur about with my tongue sticking out of my mouth in happiness.I missed the feeling of my paws hitting the wet soil firmly before taking off and covering the length and breadth of the field without getting exhausted. But I could only imagine it happening. I wasn't sure I was going to be allowed in the field again. Dad made sure of it. The day we raced into the night together was the last time we'd ever go into the field. And with each passing day, I was already losing my mind. I longed to be anywhere except my room. Dad made sure he provided all I needed and successfully shut me out of the pack with hefty guards guiding my roo
Chapter 17AuroraThe bitter taste of sadness burned my throat all the way down to my chest as I processed all that Eve had said. The pack was no longer safe? Where I called home was no longer safe for me. I stared at space, unable to move as the weight of the information weakened my muscles. Of all the questions that floated in my head, only one echoed repeatedly in my mind. Why? When I was about to enjoy the best years of my life, why would the pack be under attack? It's not even up to three months already and the whole pack was running Heltersketer because of some unknown enemies? Why was my happiness always short-lived?!I fought the urge to burst into tears before Eve but the harder I blinked, the more my tears threatened to spill. What kind of luck do I have? I just wanted to be happy forever, was that too much to ask?! At once, the gush of anger and hatred rushed through my bones and I felt like vanquishing all of them. "I know this is hard for you to take in. I jus
Chapter 18AuroraI felt my heart flew out of my chest as I processed my Dad's words. I gulped the burning taste of fear down my throat as confusion hit me like a ton of bricks. Cold breeze found its way to my bare body, making me tremble at the shocking news. Unable to move my body as I was paralyzed by fear, I froze on a spot with widened eyes, contemplating what to do. I hated that my response to danger was freezing on the spot. Despite how I tried to react to flight, I found myself freezing instead. Gaining a bit of composure, my shaking hands met my father's body as I caressed him tenderly, breathing rhythmically and watching him copy my steady flow of breath. Calmness washed over him as he heaved a deep sigh. His large gray eyes fluttered open to meet my silver ones and a forced smile played on my lips. "It's okay, daddy, you are fine," I assured, staring deeply into his sad eyes. His brows raised as he studied me. "I thought you were supposed to be in your room. What
Chapter 19DamonMy hand extended to grab Ivy's butt as I tossed in my sleep, shielding my face from the sun ray that seeped through the curtain, creating a magical orange glow in my room. Exhausted as I had Ivy all to myself the previous night until dawn, I burrowed further into the bed, burying my head in her slim neck.A chuckle unconsciously left my throat when I remembered how she sneaked into my room to give me a mind-blowing blowjob. I couldn't get it out of my head. The same way I couldn't get enough of her. The scent of her arousal filled my nose, making me unconsciously licking the mark on her exposed neck. It felt so good, so tempting…it took a lot of self-control to stop my wolf from marking her again. I mumbled a helpless groan when her big butt ground against my dick, clenching my jaws to gather self-control. Despite knowing it was not intentional, I couldn't help the urge to bend her over and fuck her tirelessly just like I did all through the night. A feeling of
Chapter 20AuroraCloaked in fear, I could hear my father's pulse beating in his ears as sweat began to tickle down his forehead despite the air-conditioned room. Horror embalmed his eyes when his phone beeped the second time, indicating a message he received from the Alpha King. He tried to stay as still as possible to avoid drawing attention, but his teeth began to chatter in fear. I restrained myself from walking up to him to see the content of his message as his fear started to spread to me, like a communicable disease. What could the Alpha King ask that put my father in this situation? My father could withstand tough things without blinking. The wound on his chest was evidence…but this strange message triggered his fear, making it resurface and getting the best of him. What does the King want? Despite racking my brain to search for extreme conditions to ask, I couldn't find any that could trigger one's fear factor.Maybe he wanted my father's pack. It was no secret that m
Chapter 21AuroraWeighing the dangerous options one last time, I took a deep breath, calming my raging nerves as I tried to pick the best option. Except both were suicidal. I wiped the dried tears that stained my cheeks with the back of my palm as I proceeded out of my room to make the final arrangements with my dad. Be strong, Aurora. Now wasn't the time to brood. I spent hours in my room drenching my pillow with tears until I had no tears in my eyes. The moment my legs hit the hallway, the atmosphere got tense. My presence made everyone mute as they stared at me with a glimmer of hope in their eyes. It was crazy how the news traveled so fast. A feeling of selfishness coursed through me as I made my way into their midst.Guilt pricked my heart, making me avoid their gazes. I wasn't going to be anyone's saviour to the detriment of myself. And I wouldn't let my emotions make me do something irrational. But when the eyes of an innocent boy accidentally pinned mine, I felt my
Chapter 22 Aurora It was crazy how news spread rapidly like wildfire. It didn't take a minute after the Beta gave my words to the King before results started pouring in. A state of emergency was declared to keep everyone safe in their houses while the war was going on. We had lost so many people and losing more wasn't on the list. I watched in silence as the smoke from the exploded bombs rose up from my window, destroying the territories of the unknown enemies. Bullets flew in all directions and soon. Our pack was filled with extremely skilled warriors deployed by the King. After much pleading with my father, I was handed a device by his Beta to keep track of the progress of the war. It was a piece of great news to know that we were on the winning side. The warriors were so much that they greatly outnumbered the enemies. Soon they began to retreat into the portal they came out from, but the warriors found them and spared no time in exterminating them. A heroic feeli
Chapter 23Damon"Any news from Ric?" I asked impatiently, trying to mask my rising anxiety. But Jasper was always a son of a bitch. He saw through my hidden feelings most of the time. It fills me with irritation knowing that I was almost an open book to someone. But I was grateful it was Jasper, my right-hand man whom I trusted with my life. His eyes narrowed as they were pinned on mine, watching me suspiciously. "They are on their way." Those words were enough to send relief through my troubled mind, but they didn't erase the anxiety that was clung to my chest. Anger rose in me as a twinge of irritation flushed through me.Why was this journey taking forever? The Diamond Heart pack was just a few hours away from my castle and it's been 4 hours since Ric reported! Why was he acting like a snail today?!This was unlike Ric. The instructions were simple. Get the girl out of the god-damned pack immediately after he arrives. I hope he wasn't waiting for the conclusion of the fam
