Episode 5

Lucian

Yasminy's kiss doesn't even compare to Aurora's, it's so... What am I doing? I can't be comparing Yasminy White to Aurora Colton!

Before I can finish my train of thought, I hear a growl, I look to the side, and immediately, I put Yasminy behind me.

Aurora's eyes are red, for sure, she witnessed the whole scene of the proposal I made to Yasminy, and the kiss. Damn! The bond! If I don't intervene, these two could fight to the death! Aurora wouldn't stand a chance, I can't let her get hurt.

"You've hurt her enough! (Max yells at me).

"Miss Colton! I order you to respect your future Luna! Leave immediately, or you will be imprisoned in the dungeons, without food and water for a week!"

Aurora doesn't back down, even with my warning, she seems blinded by rage.

"Why is she like this? Was she some fling of yours? If so, you can discard her once and for all, as your mate, I will not allow you to have fun with your maids! (Yasminy says, making the situation worse).

And so, I decide to use my Alpha voice, trying to contain Aurora:

"Aurora! I command you to stop right now!"

She looks me in the eye, that look, I don't think I'll ever forget. I feel a pang in my chest, the sadness my destined mate is feeling right now.

She turns away, running into the forest, leaving me with a feeling of helplessness.

Aurora

He used his Alpha voice to restrain me? Of course! He was protecting his future Luna! Damn it! If he doesn't want me, why doesn't he just reject me? What does Lucian want with all this?

Kyra remains silent, I know she's devastated, just like me.

I take off my clothes, and let my wolf run for miles, letting out her pain, when Kyra gets tired, we return to the pack house.

In the following days, I struggle not to be overcome by the pain inside of me. I have to be stronger than this feeling, I won't let myself be down, they won't see a sad Aurora in the corners. I will continue to live, for myself, for my family. When Lucian marks Yasminy, this torment will end, I know it will hurt a lot, however, I will not crawl and humiliate myself after someone who has made it very clear that he does not want me!

Today is my day off, Kayla invited me for ice cream, of course I accepted. I'm strange, I feel different, my body is hot, thinking more than I should about Lucian, inappropriate thoughts.

"Rory, are you okay? It's not that cold, and you're sweating a lot."

"I don't know, my body is hot, and..."

"Goddess! It's your first rut!"

"Rut? You mean, my first heat? Oh no!"

"Yes, the first rut is much more intense, and not to scare you, it will attract the attention of all the unmated wolves, so it's best to go back to the pack house, there you'll be safer, unless, you want to get carried away, and be with someone before you find your mate."

I notice some men looking at me strangely, they start sniffing the air, and, damn! They know, I need to get back to the pack house immediately!

"I have to go!"

"I'll go with you."

Kayra accompanies me to the pack house, good thing I visited my parents earlier, I hardly found any clothes at home, Lucian had sent employees to get all my things.

I say goodbye to my friend, entering the pack house, I immediately run towards my room, when suddenly, I bump into a wall of muscles.

"Aurora..."

"Alpha, I... I have to go. (I say running, entering my room, closing the door behind me).

I sit on the bed, trying to control my breathing, when the door opens.

"What happened? Why are you... (Lucian stops talking, sniffing the air).

He enters, closing the door behind him, coming towards me.

"Stay away from me! (I speak firmly).

"Are you sure that's what you want?"

Lucian speaks approaching, I'm still sitting on the bed, when he sits beside me, my breath becomes short, despite all the anger I feel towards him, I can't stop wanting him.

As if he too were desperate to kiss me, he takes my lips with urgency and passion, my body heats up even more with his kiss, when I realize, I'm lying down with Lucian on top of me, he runs his hand over my body, driving me crazy, while kissing me madly, leaving me breathless.

Trailing his kisses down my neck, I surrender, and without warning, he sinks his fangs into my chest, making me feel pain and pleasure at the same time.

"This will keep the other wolves away from you now (He says getting up, leaving me with a feeling of emptiness).

Did he just mark me so the other wolves wouldn't come near me?

"What did you do! You had no right!"

"You are mine Aurora! Only mine!"

"I'm not! Your mate will be Yasminy!"

"It didn't look like it when you were almost giving yourself to me (He says leaving, leaving me very angry).

In the following days, the other wolves didn't bother me, they felt there was a mark on me, I tried to hide the mark Lucian left and avoid him and his future Luna at all costs. I succeeded for five days after the incident in my room, but today, Yasminy showed up to torment me early on.

"Maid, what's your name again?"

"Aurora, ma'am."

"I want you to be my personal maid, my father and my Lucian, have decided that our mating ceremony, and my proclamation as Luna, will be two weeks from now, so I'm going to live here from now on, isn't that wonderful!"

"Yes ma'am!"

"As my personal maid, you will have to have your meals with me, starting now."

"All right."

I follow Yasminy to the Garden, where she had a beautiful, lavish table prepared, but what caught my attention was the place, the place where she and Lucian kissed.

"It's a special place for me, this is where Lucian and I had our first kiss! Isn't it wonderful!"

Surely this ordinary woman wants to test me, but I won't give in to her provocations, I won't give her what she wants, no way!

"Yes, that's wonderful! (I speak in disgust).

The following days, my meals were beside this shrew, she made a point of ruining my day. I've been feeling strange, I've been nauseous, feeling very weak.

I was coming back from another walk in the woods, at my lunch time, when I see gamma Luke coming towards me, he has a sad look on his face.

"Aurora, the Alpha wants to speak with you in his office."
