ARIATwo days later, the doctor discharged me and confirmed my child is perfectly okay. An ultrasound also revealed that we are expecting a boy and Slade gave me an I-told-you-so look. Things were still strained between us but in all the days I was at the hospital, not once did he leave my bedside except when he wanted a shower, and in each case, he made sure someone was there with me and returned with utmost speed.Our ride back to the penthouse was mostly quiet. My eyes were trained on the road while Slade was constantly glancing at me with a worried expression that I pretended not to notice. He didn’t try to make any form of conversation though and I was grateful for it. He helped me out of the vehicle when we finally stopped in front of the penthouse, but I pulled my hands away from his as soon as I could and didn’t say a word. I took a shower first, slipped into my night clothes, and headed straight to bed.It was a few minutes later that he joined me in bed. He’d gone to do

My hands froze mid-air, my eyes widened and my mouth dropped open. Slade’s eyes returned to their original color, his gaze darting to my hands and back to my face, surprise clearly written in them. I’d never raised my hands on anybody apart from my bullies in the past, and I never thought a day will come when I’ll raise it against my mate, and an alpha for that matter. I swallowed, withdrawing my hands and shoving it behind me. I didn’t know what to do or say at that point, but I know I’ll not apologize for attempting to hit him. Sorry is not a word you’ll find in Slade’s dictionary, and I guess I had to erase it from mine whenever he was involved.“Are you trying to hit me, mate?” he quirked a brow and stressed on the word ‘mate’. I’d expected him to be angry, but he had an amused expression on his face and a smirk on his lips. I swallowed and snapped my mouth shut, shaking my head vigorously.“I-I-“ I stuttered, fixing my eyes to his chest instead of his face. I closed my eyes and

My gaze remained fixed to the door several minutes after he closed it behind him. Xaria wanted me to stop him from leaving, but I could not bring myself to do so considering I’d been the one to ask him to leave in the first place. I was learning things about my mate I didn’t know of, the kind of things I only thought were possible in books and movies, and I wasn’t sure how to react to it. I have spent many months in this bed with Slade, but hearing him tell me about his past made me feel like we were total strangers. ‘You wanted him to open up to us, and that is what he is trying to do, yet you push him away,’ Xaria murmured. I sighed, trying to put a wall between us. Xaria could never stay mad at her mate, no matter the situation. She’d felt betrayed after we learnt of his curse, she’d been angry with him, but she got over it really fast, throwing caution to the wind and admonishing me to go to him. Truthfully, Xaria had been more worried about losing her mate than acknowledging his

“Do we really need all these?” I grumbled when Luna Evelyn added another handful of baby items into the cart.“Of course we do,” she beamed, rubbing her palms together and scanning the mall for more things to buy. “Aha,” she raised one finger in the air, pointing at something else. Before I could turn fully to see what it was she had seen, she dashed in the direction she’d pointed. I rolled my eyes and wheeled the cart to the check out point. There were about six people before me, but they stepped out of the way for me to go ahead of them with warm smiles on their faces. I thanked them and when the cashier looked up and saw me, she all but got out frantically from her seat, signaling another of her colleague to come help her out to hasten the calculations so I could leave. I’d gotten a phone amongst other things, but I wasn’t freaked about it. I guess I’d gotten used to not having one.“Luna Aria,” her colleague summoned the courage to speak directly to me, and I saw the other gir

I tapped on the door once, and without waiting for a reply, I barged into his office. Slade had a man by his collar, lifted mid-air, his legs thrashing in the air. He released the man as soon as he saw me, straightening to his full height while the man scurried to escape from the alpha. “I-I didn’t know you were coming,” he rolled his sleeves down slowly, buttoning one after another carefully. I’d not visited his office in a long time, and I noticed nothing had changed since I was last here. My desk still remained the way I’d left it at the far end of his office. The only difference was the untidy state of his own desk. It wasn’t unusual for his desk to be scattered with a lot of paper work, but there were more files on his desk than usual. I wonder how he can deal with all of this and still find time to look into Sapphire and Lennox’s whereabouts.I’d noticed more freedom now than before. He passed a strict warning to every member of Dark Wolf that I wasn’t allowed out of the pack

I went to see Allegra the next day. She was beside her table, as usual, mixing some potions, and the stench hung in the air. Her eyes darted up to meet mine as soon as I entered and she smiled warmly at me.“Luna Aria,” she says smiling “I was expecting you,”“Allegra,” I greeted casually, leaning against the door as soon as I shut it close. Slade had not opposed to me coming to see Allegra this time as was the case in the past. He even had Marcel drive me here because he was tied up with pack matters. They were preparing for war. After our conversation yesterday, he’d assembled the warriors and had a talk with them. Lennox used to be the head warrior and now that he had betrayed them, Marcel and another guy whose name I still haven’t gotten a hold of were to lead the training. He’d warned against traitors, and promised death to whoever is caught. After what happened, I know his trust level even for members of his pack dwindled, but Slade had everything under control. He does it

I rolled on my side and opened my eyes slowly, feeling the bed to find Slade’s side empty. He was still sleeping in the other room, but I had a feeling he’d not come to the penthouse the night before. He must have been engrossed in all the trainings and all the work he’d pushed over while he was with me at the hospital.I groaned, pulling myself up with one hand on my stomach. When my eyes met the clock, I gasped. It was almost midday. I hurried to take a bath, determined to go to the training field to watch the warriors train, but Gwyn came bearing my food first. “Good Morning Aria. I came earlier but you were still fast asleep,” she smiled at me. I thanked her and we made little talks about what has been happening in the pack. I resolved to join the others in the kitchen to prepare the meals for those in training, but Gwyn told me the alpha wanted to see me first. I dressed up casually and went to his office. His workers were busy but they stopped to greet me and acknowledge my

SLADEMaybe I deserve everything that is happening to me. I should have seen it from the start, I should have known that Sapphire will be the one to turn her back and raise an army against a pack I have built till this point. My wolf tried to warn me about her severally, but I never listened, I was led by my flesh.I am not a man to regret my actions but Sapphire has to be one of the worse decisions I ever made in my life. I got carried away by her deceptive smiles. I know for a fact that she’d loved me at some point and I even found out that she was obsessed with the idea of being with me. But she is psycho to think she stands a chance becoming my Luna. She carries Daryl’s mark for crying out loud. There’s no way she can bear any other man’s mark, and there is no way she can be my luna. Certainly she is smart enough to know that.I wasn’t surprised that she’d set Daryl up. In fact, I had thought about that before my mate brought it up. My sweet Aria. She is growing. She’s a smart lad
