AriaI woke in a familiar atmosphere, in my room. The rays of the morning sun peered through the gap of the curtain and fell on my face waking me up from the slumber that I wished would never end.The surreal memories of last night attacked me from every side, the rise and fall of my chest increased as the pace of my heartbeat gradually turned rapid. The tears once again began gathering in my eyes but what could they bring? Nothing.Except for adding more to my misery, these tears were as useless as the mate bond between me and Hunter Rodriguez.He despised me, all he had ever shown to me was his hatred and this mate bond was not a blessing, it was a curse. A curse that was going to ruin my life completely, snatch the last hopes that I had left inside, the hopes that gave me the strength to keep my shattered life together.I did not have any idea what I should do.I was a mess!And just when I was on the verge of breaking down once again, a sudden knock on the door broke the chains of
Aria"Aria, sweetheart get ready quickly. Okay?" Dad asked as he noticed me walk upstairs after I was done with a small baking session with mom."For what?" I asked, confused.To keep my mind off of things, I had decided to bake some cookies with some and I'd be a lie if I said that it helped me in any sort of way. The entire time I had to force myself to concentrate on baking. It was as if there was no other thought left in my brain except for that one person and what made it worse was that I could feel the emotions Sierra was going through. The mate bond was affecting both of us and the distance and the abortive future I could see had given my pain a few more reasons to increase."Your mom hasn't told you yet?" Dad asked before he tilt his head to glance back mom who was storing the freshly baked cookies in the jar, "Honey, why haven't you told her that we and some important pack members who are in charge of the pack along us are invited to Brian's house?" Mom's mouth formed 'o'
AriaAlpha Brian and Luna Olivia greeted us as we reached their mansion."How are you, sweetheart? Olivia walked closer to me and caressed my cheek."I am fine," I flashed her a smile which she gladly returned."Come on everyone, let's have a seat," Brian guided us inside.This was the first time in the last four years that I have stepped into this house, from the time being Hunter draw the distance between us I never tried to look back not even thinking of coming here on the occasions.But today I had to...Because after all these years, I finally decided to face him. Running and keeping away from myself due to the fear of facing his gaze full of hatred was not what I am going to do anymore.We all took seats around the round table. There were plenty of people here today, and Hunter's beta and gamma were there too. They flashed me a small smile like they always had every time we'd ever met."What's it about, Brian? An announcement you were talking about, what's it?" Dad asked.Brian'
Aria'I, Hunter Rodriguez, the Alpha of Silvercrest pack reject Aria Brown as my mate and the Luna.'A day had passed by.It turned out that at least Hunter had some mercy left to not utter those words that will severe the bond, immediately after I left. For once he decided not to act like the monster show how much hatred he has stored for me in his heart.Sierra and I both were keeping ourselves together, gathering our strength to face the upcoming storm of pain that would come along with the inevitable rejection. The truth was hard to accept nonetheless it was the truth— This mate bond is a curse. Having my tormentor as my mate was a curse that I had to reject even if it'd break me and tear me apart.No matter how hard it was to fight this mate bond, I had to do it.A trembling sigh left my mouth as I stared outside the window, it was late at night and the moon seemed to shine at its best yet there was this undefinable darkness that could be sensed but not seen. The silence felt st
AriaThey were everywhere.From attacking the pack members, and destroying things to even harming the children. Their disgusting nature and vicious moves of them made my blood boil. Their sight only caused the rage to entrench in every fiber that ever existed in my body.My eyes caught the scene of a few rouges attacking a group of omega who hadn't shifted yet, their canines dripped with blood and red eyes stared at them in the most threatening way anyone could ever imagine. And then the worst nightmare was about to come true, they were going to pounce on her; At the next very moment, one of them jumped at one of those helpless omegas.All I saw was red.I approached them at full speed and with a leap, I caught that rouge's neck between my cannies in mid-air before he could even reach the omega and tore his head away from his filthy body soon as my paws hit the ground.His nasty blood was all over my fur and Sierra shook it away."Luna...." The omega I just saved, her barely audible
AriaMy eyes, for some unexplainable reason locked with that one rouge in the middle.None of the other rouges moved but only he did, calm and unbothered by my presence he began approaching me. His demeanor seemed strange, his gray eyes were the most unusual ones I had ever seen but I could see the power radiating from him. Unlike all the other rouges, he radiated the power of an....alpha.But he was still a rouge and I could sense that.He stood in front of me, his dark fur matched the darkness of the night that still had hours left to fade away.There was no one around in this area, a pin drop silence existed around and no sign of life could be spotted anywhere except for the dead bodies of the border guards.His stare was challenging as if provoking me to make a move and face the consequences.At this point I was sure, this was not any ordinary rouge. The power, authority, and unmistakably the depravity that shined in his eyes without any bound told me that the real intention this
Knight's P.O.VI tried to sit still and focus on the plan but nothing I did was working in keeping that one girl out of my mind.Her beautiful doe eyes, long dark hair, and honey skin shimmered under the moonlight as she started outside the window which gave me the chance to have a glance at her for the first time.Women meant nothing to me. I have always treated them as an object for sexual pleasure including my own mate whom I, fortunately, killed at the right time before she could expose my plans to the world and ruin my years of hard work.But this one girl... She got me captivated.When she looked outside the window probably feeling my eyes on her, the way those juicy pink lips of hers parted in surprise had got me lost. If I hadn't gone there for the attack, I would drag her down from the little room that she seemed to make her safe place and fucked her till the sun went up.And once she was standing in front of me in her wolf form, she looked like a goddess who had landed on th
AriaAll the pack members gathered around the hall of the pack house. Fear and uncertainty had shrouded everyone's minds and what else I could have expected? We had lost a lot of members due to the sudden attack of those blood-thirsty rouges.Our pack was damaged and now we had a lot of things to fix. We were going through a great loss and maybe we could never fulfill it.How are we ever going to fulfill the loss of those who lost their family members?How could I bring back the child of the mourning mother? The mates of the crying woman who would never be able to get over this nightmare? The omegas who became the target of the brutality of those monsters because they were too weak and frightened to fight back? No. It wasn't possible to bring them back but something was possible. But one thing was...Revenge.Killing each of them one by one and gifting them the painful death they deserved was possible."Is it hurting sweetheart?" Mom asked in concern as she looked at my bandaged woun
