Aria

My eyes fluttered open then came a sudden headache that slammed across my forehead, catching me off guard.

“Ow, that hurts” I whined, rubbing my head as I slowly sat straight. I was in my room, well the room I shared with Xanthea. The lights were dimed, curtains closed but I peeked through the window and saw the moonlight alright at it's natural duty.

“It's night time already?” I said as I steadily dragged myself out the bed to check my phone. When I suddenly heard the Bathroom door clicked locked and I turned to see Xanthea staring at me. My breathing ceased as I stared at his bare chest where droplets of water sliding from his hair rested on his chest while making its way down to his wrapped waist.

“You're awake” he casually said while drying his hair with another towel.

I cleared my throat to speak properly - I don't want to embarrass myself with a cracked voice - before averting my gaze “well, yeah. I..um..” I stutter “what happened?” I finally said.

    Aria's povAlpha Maui's words were still plunge into my brain, and lingered like a parasite. “I have to find out who exactly I am” I thought while entering the mansion. Xanthea was trying his best to make sure I'm not executed, yet here I am being all useless and crying shamelessly. I shook my head while entering the living room where, The Luna and Leo was seated. And I noticed that Ryder has been Miss for the last twenty four hours. “I wonder where he might be” I reasoned.I felt exhausted and wanted nothing but to take shower but the next words from the Luna shook me to the core “The alpha has been bedridden for days now and you didn't care, all your focus was on this bitch here” Emily said, Angrily she stared at Xanthea. Xanthea on the other hand looked less concerned and began walking away.“Come back here Xanthea, I am talking to you” she bellowed at him but he simply ignored her and called for Leo’s attention.Emily then turned to me, rage and loathing filled her blazing eyes.

    Is that all you have to say?” Emily questioned. I was in her room, she had summoned me to talk about a crucial topic that the pack needs - an heir. “Mom, I've told you. I'll handle this. Aria isn't ready yet?” “You are married to her already, how unready is she?” Emily asked before sighing to herself. I tried everything to avoid bringing up this topic. I don't know why but I wasn't ready to have kids yet. “You're taking too much time. You father is bedridden and I'm sure he might not be able to make it out of the Hospital this week” She sounded less worried about her husband's predicament. The alpha had contracted a disease which no one knows about, we had call doctors to check out the illness but they said his system was fine. “And you know this pack very way. Once you don't have an heir, to hand over the position would be difficult, couple with the fact your about to have a curse….” I stopped her before she could drag Aria even more. I raised my hands in the air “mom stop i

    Unknown pov.“Everything is going as planned” I said grinning as I stared at my notebook. I was hoping to get caught but it looked like they had no clue who I was. I grinded again then turned to Stephan, who was holding Emily's lifeless body.“What should we do with her boss?” Stephan asked me with his thick Mexican accent. I turned to the Darkhavens mansion and stared at it.“Let's leave it here for now. Someone would come and pick her up” I said Coldly with a wild smile. “I can smell my victory” I mumbled, satisfied with the results.Soon enough, I got a message stating the arrival of Xanthea and Aria. “You have to leave now” I commanded Stephan. He growled and sprinted away. I turned to the mansion, picked up my phone and dialed a number.“Fix a date of their arrival. Make your story believable and make sure their hopes are crushed and shattered. Got it?” I asked, the old woman across the other side mumbled before I could hang the call she said.“If I tell them that, there's a po

    Aria pov .Still frightened by the strange eye I had seen a few minutes back, my legs darted quickly following up with Xanthea's pace. Immediately they arrived at the mansion, Kisha and Ryder with some other members of the pack were already seated.“Where is she?” Ryder was the first to speak he turned to the man they had caught lurking in the woods. Everyone's attention now focused on him, as he dragged the suspect by the collar, attempting to choke him.“I told you, I have no Idea of what you're talking about” the man gasped, begging to freed but Ryder only tightened his grip.“You expect me to believe that crap? What where you doing there?” Ryder interrogated furiously. I on the other hand was still holding onto the letter I had received few minutes back, I wanted to tell Xanthea but Leo's word were stuck in my head “why shouldn't I tell him? It'll only be wrong if I try keeping a clue from him while he's out there trying to find a clue” I reasoned to myself.“I was out hiking w

    Ryder's pov.“Have you gotten everything I asked you?’ I spoke cautiously into the cellphone which was pressed against my ears, as if I was trying to hide the conversation from other ears.“Yes. I also told them to start the “process” immediately when they arrived boss” the person from the other end replied.My smile widened into a menacing grin, my plans were finally being executed “That's good. Now make sure they thoroughly hate him from the bottom of their hearts, make sure all allegations are pointed to them, to which they'll have no choice but to leave for good. And if there's no allegations, come up with one” I stated authoritatively “I will boss. What if Xanthea finds out?” he layed out his concerns. Xanthea was very feared but that wouldn't stop me from leading a rebel.“forget about that. Just do as told,” I said before hanging up the phone. I stared at my phone, envisioning my victory before opening the car door and was about to enter, when heard someone from behind.

    Aria's Pov.The drive to the witches place was a long stretched silence coupled with the desserted roads that seems to thrive deep into the forest. I was pretty sure that we’re far beyond human civilization as the place kept dragging deep into the forest glade.“How far is this? I'm sure we've been traveling for more than two hours” I spoke quietly to Xanthea. His head swivelled to me quickly, with a sharp gaze he said. “I honestly have no idea” then turned to Leo who was apparently the only person who knows where we're going and our driver.“How far did you say it is again?” Xanthea asked Leo. Leo, still on the wheels adjusted the rearview mirror to glance at us. “We're almost there. That is, according to my friend” he said with uncertainty.“You don't know where we're going!” I almost yelled in a panic. “What if we get lost? And something bad happened to us? Or we get mauled by a bear?” I panicked internally.“Don't you have a map or something? Google map doesn't seem to work aro

    Aria's pov The door to the cabin creaked open and a gush of musty odor hit me almost immediately. The place didn't have any sort of foul smell, only that of dust. “Doesn't look like someone's actually living here” I commented.It was dark despite the bright sun outside.“Hold my hands if you're scared,” Xanthea told me. I don't want to look like a scaredy cat in front of him and I told him off.“I'm not scared you know” I tried acting tough despite the fear instilled in me.He smiled again then said “why are you clutching my clothes so tight if you aren't?” I hadn't noticed that I was holding him then let go of his hands Whilst chuckling some more. “Cute,” he mumbled.“What?” I asked. “Maybe I heard wrong but did I just say cute? Am I cute? Is he finding me cute?” I reasoned , blushing harder than a ripe tomato.“Welcome” a voice snapped me back to reality. We arrived at the “witches” living room, or it seems like a living room that was made in the 80s.The woman looked to be in he

    Xanthea P.O.VThe atmosphere became hitched after I'd asked Leo the question. It was surprising how Cameron got to know so much about us yet this was our first time meeting. “Leo? Is there something you're not telling us?” I asked again.Suddenly he turned, with a huge grin “there's nothing. I only know Cameron because he is my friend's Brother. Isn't that right Cameron?” He turned to Cameron, his hands over his shoulders.Cameron's expression suddenly changed from fury to calm although I could see through it that he was holding back his resentment.“Yes it is” Cameron shoved Leo's hands away, walking past us to his mother.“Mom, are you okay? Did they hurt you?” He inquired. The old hag shook her head a no. “Why are you guys living here? At the outskirts of town, more like deep in the forest” Aria said in disdain. Cameron narrowed his eyes at Aria “forget about it. If you're done take your husband and leave” He replied rather rudely which got me upset.I was about to retaliate w

I was hit with a devastating headache.“Ow” I whined while massaging my head with my palm. But it did little to stop the painI sat up straight, then noticed that something was off. I glanced at myself and noticed I was naked.Panic setting in immediately, “what happened to my clothes?” I asked rhetorically.Movement from the bed, made me swirl my head to my horror.A golden-haired boy was sleeping peacefully beside me.“Ah!” A shrill scream escaped my lips, making me jolt backwards and I fell to my butt to the cold floor.“What is Cameron doing here?” I pondered internally. “And why am I naked?”Cameron sat up straight and poked his head to where I was, “why did you scream like that?” He asked, rubbing his eyes groggily.While my mind went frantic, trying to remember what happened. “Why can't I remember?” I shook my head, slapping myself.“Remember “ slap, “r

    Cameron’s P.o.vMy hands brushed against my jeans where the pills were. A pang of guilt hit me like a hammer to the head, however I have to do it if I want my freedom.“I need to return home. Even if I can't help my brother, I have a wife” I thought internally.As I began walking to Aria's room, I took notice of every little noise coming from the living room and stayed alert for any incoming persons.Her room was just down the hallway, just one room away from Xantheas study. Luckily he wasn't home.Xanthea had gone away on some business meeting alongside Leo and so, Aria was left alone for the night.“Okay. Calm down. Just go in and get the job done.” I tried motivating myself despite the guilt I felt. “It'll be as easy as….”“What are you doing?” A female voice cut my thoughts, startling me.“Gosh, you scared me” I jerked, holding my chest as my heart slammed in it.The woman - Aria’s personal servant - held a tray of food which I presumed to be Aria's.After the fight with the alpha

    Unknown P.O.V“Did you contact her?” I said in a low tone, as the person in the other side mumbled an incoherent words “I tried reaching her, however her line wasn't going through” Randy said through the other side.“I don't think you're ready to help your sister. She doesn't mean that much to you” I threatened, trying to strike up fear in him. “I am not one of those lacky you can threaten,” Randy said. “Don't you dare touch Kisha. If I ever find out you're threatening her, I'll kill you”I smiled at the thought of him trying to hurt me - which was impossible.It was true, Randy was a whole lot more complex than the others I had dealt with.However I knew how to handle such individuals, and I can tie them in my arms.No matter who you are; I can make them my pawn and use them to achieve my goals.“I know who you are and I can easily expose your identity to Xanthea and the whole Blackwood pack” Randy said and I stayed quiet. “So if I were you, I would keep my mouth shut and let's g

    Xanthea’ p.o.vThe next dayI realized the weight I had spoken recklessly to Aria. I sometimes forget, she can be sentimental and take everything to heart.Nevertheless, my suspicions turned out to be true. She was seeing someone behind my back.A knock interrupted my thoughts “Is everything okay, Alpha?” Leo then walked into my study, holding a plate of food.“Melinda, said she wanted to bring this to you. So…” his voice trailed off as he kept the tray of food in front of me.“I'm not hungry” I grumpily said while typing something on my keyboard.“Well ..” Leo began, taking a seat opposite me “I understand what happened yesterday and I can tell you for sure it is a couples thing” I glared up at him, my brows arching “you don't even have a girlfriend and you're giving out advice” I said deadpan then returned to my work.He chuckled and adjusted his coat and leaned forward, “that might be true. But I have hang out with few of them”I sighed then turned to him, “has she left the room y

    Aria’s pov Time stood still as they all glared at me, especially Xantheas. His gaze bore a hole in me, leaving me completely speechless. Beads of imaginary sweats poured from my face and I wiped it off.“What are they talking about Aria?” Xanthea asked again, his tone laced with tension.My gaze shifted to Steve who had an evil smirk on his face, whereas Lena looked uncomfortable and didn't want to be there.“Look, Xanthea, I can explain….” I tried to steady my breathing which is coming up in rasp. “However, I need to know why Lena is with Steve,” she continued.“That wasn't the question, Aria” Steve blurted out, “he asked, if what I said was true? Are you working with me or not?” Steve said, adding to the tension and Xanthea eyes were livid.“There's nothing going on between us,” I stopped to catch my breath and closed my eyes. “I don't even know what you're talking about….” I was still saying when Lena blurted out.“Then why are you always meeting that man almost every single day

    Aria's pov.I stood paralysed as the words escaped Mia’s lips. I tried to wrap my head around what she was trying to say, but it still wasn't making any sense“Who is she? And who's her dad?” I thought within myself while staring at my reflection, Xanthea behind me.The atmosphere felt suffocating and thick, the air in my lungs cut short and my heart Drummed in my heart.“And it is better for you to make the right choice than to keep them waiting. You know your Alpha-ship is in line” Mia whose gaze was on Xanthea suddenly shifted to mine, her expression filled with menace and grin. Before any of us could utter a word, she then stormed out of the Mall.********After what felt like a date ruin, we headed home but the words of Mia and the rest were already planted in me.They were all saying the same thing, “get a new Luna. Aria is a curse, she'll ruin you. She killed your parents. She doesn't deserve you. She's worthless, Bastard, incompetent….." Suddenly I felt my breath hitch and cl

    Aria's pov Xanthea whisked me Into his vehicle and we headed onto the streets, with me having little to no knowledge of where we were heading.“You want to tell me what this is about?” I began, breaking the silence between us ever since we left the mansion.Xanthea glanced at me before staring at the wheel, he was driving and something I've noticed is that he hated people talking or distracting him while driving.Somehow I still couldn't believe what Kisha said back at the mansion. And what Rumors was she talking about? I know Xanthea would be mad if I ask him about it however I am dying to know what the rumors are.“You'll see once we get there,” he said.A long stretched silence filled the car again, and soon we arrived at a fancy Boutique clothing store.Manikin display in the store, putting on the most elegant luxury clothes I'd ever seen.“What is going on here?” I feigned a confused look as I watched him park at the parking lot.Xanthea turned to me and gave me a smile.. “wait

    Aria's P.O.VI was petrified by the imagery displaying before me. My mouth wide open as I looked into Xantheas eyes.Kisha was still wrapping herself around him while he tried to free himself.But something else caught my attention, he looked like he was enjoying it. Every bit of it.“Oh my god, have you missed me?” Kisha said in her high tone. I don't know where she went to or why she returned but she was getting on my nerves.“Why the Fuck would you do that?” Xantheas voice caught the excitement in her. Fear engulfed her and her breath hitched as Xanthea continued, “who gave you such a right to lay a finger on me, nonetheless kiss me” Xanthea fumed.Kisha’s gaze met mine, “I wanted us to reconnect….” Her voice was soft like she was about to cry. Her lips pressed together, holding back the pretentious tears from falling.“Did you know why I left? You didn't even call” Kisha said and I felt a pang of guilt hit me like a blow.I should have called her and asked why she suddenly disapp

    Xantheas P.o.v“And why have you come all the way here just to tell me that?” I asked, trying to sound neutral however the anger had already built up in me.“Sir, it is important” The messenger said, in place of the council.They've come to remind me of my duty, their agreement and the consequences, of which I don't abide by their laws. But I am still adamant and not willing to change my mind.I will find the cure for Aria, And not get engaged to anyone.“You can go back. Tell them I'd come to a conclusion Later on” I said dismissing the young fellow. He bowed a little then turned to leave, Leo walking beside him as he left.“What are you going to do about it?” He joined me on the fancy bench which was situated outside the mansion right under an oak tree shielding us from the blazing sun.I remained silent for a while, calculating my risk and doing some Internal Thoughts. “Anyways, there's been some news.
