44. A Broken Bond

ALPHA RAIDEN

| wore the fake smile regardless of the blinding pain eatingaway.

| kept my eyes on them even though seeing them and their kids together broke me. I felt a painful twitch in the

depths of my soul when she muttered, "Yes, I'll marry and mate with you." Don't break right here. Don't,

Raiden...

| chanted to myself while almost everyone in the arena cheered in celebration of what | never had with Aurelia...

No. I had it. | just threw it out the window with my own hands.

My eyes stung as pain and anger mixed perfectly together withinwhen Tristan pulled her into him, kissing

her deeply and slowly... as if they were oblivious to the presence of the rest of us.

| could sense my pack's grief as my members witnessed another man claiming my destined mate whose

rejection | still haven't accepted. Gosh! My soul hurts. It has been since yesterday. | tried to but | couldn't put an

end to the grief. "This is your fault! We shouldn't be feeling this pain-" Lex didn't hesitate to put the blon me

once again.

His hatred forhas grown even deeper since the devastating discovery that made it clear that Aurelia would

never giveanother chance... not when she is the mother of Tristan's kids.... Not when he was kissing her like

that. Fuck!

"l agree. It's my fault." | muttered to my wolf, turning around to save myself from the pain of watching Tristan eat

Aurelia's face... Heck! | had never kissed her but that asshole got to kiss her. | should be the one holding and

kissing her. "We lost her-"

"You chose not to kiss her even when you claimed her body over and over again just like you chose not to mark

her. If you had marked and cherished her, the bond wouldn't be punishing us." Lex growled, sharing his pain with

If wolves could cry, Lex would have broken down in tears since last night. In fact, if | could, I'd wail right here

while the little masked boy jumped energetically around Tristan and Aurelia who were still clinging to each other

like fucking lovers...

"There's one way to put an end to this pain. Only one." | uttered to my wolf, embracing our emotions.

Lex gritted in response, "Don't even dare, Raiden!"

Although | hadn't voiced my thoughts to him, he could tell. "But that's the only way. She's lost to us forever, Lex

and | can't keep holding on to a broken bond."

"You won't be accepting her rejection, Raiden! | won't let you!" Lex growled ferociously and my skin pricked as he

tried to dominate my mind.

It was obvious that I'd suffer greatly if | was to accept Aurelia's rejection. | could lose my wolf and strength.

"No, Raiden." Lex chimed, still very much angry. "You've to fight for her."

"I've fought enough if you ask me. This is the point where we both accept defeat. She's a mother and she just

accepted to marry that fool." | was getting angry too. It was almost impossible to know if | was angry because of

Lex or because of the wave of happiness rolling off Tristan and straight into my nostrils. "She kissed him and she-

"| recall you kissing Larisa's face many times in the past but you still don't love her... you didn't even mark her."

Lex argued.

"What is that supposed to mean?" The mental argument between my wolf and | was becoming unbearably long

but it was the only thing keeping my mind off Aurelia and her happy family.

Lex responded instantly, "Aurelia is still unmarked and that makes her ours, Raiden. You can still get her back

before he marks her."

Maybe... | thought to myself.

Even if | somehow manage to win Aurelia back, what will happen to her kids? What-

Lex cut in, "You'll raise them with her. We still have a chance and raising Tristan's kids is good enough

punishment for the maltreatment you dished out to Aurelia in the past."

My wolf's words were a direct hit to my ego. Raise Tristan's kids? Hell! Winning Aurelia back would be harder than

raising the kids of my enemy.

"Just get her back-"

| barked at Lex, "Enough! I've heard enough."

Before my wolf could counter or put more unachievable ideas in my head, | put a strong mental shield between

our minds, blocking him out.

But the universe was againstbecause the next second, | heard Larisa's voice resonating through my mind,

"You don't look good, Raid. You can't possibly be jealous."

| couldn't find the energy to glare at her as my eyes rested on her twisted face.

"Please don't make a fool out of us and embarrass yourself before these people." Although she used the word

‘please’, her tone was harsh.

"Stay out of my head." | gritted before blocking her out too, focusing on the despair in my heart.

Larisa's face twisted into a frown

but was soon replaced by a mischievous grin that hadscowling at her. Before | could warn her, she managed

to get the crowd's attention despite the cheerso

Larisa announced without sparinganother look, "As the Luna of this pack, I'd like to celebrate Alpha Tristan

and his family."

"What are you doing?" | whispered, grabbing Larisa's hand to stop her but she simply flashed one of her fake

smiles.

"And of course, Dark Moon's victory in the games." Larisa continued. "My mate and | will be hosting a

celebratory feast later this evening. Make sure you're there."

If I didn't have a history of getting bewitched by Larisa's fake smiles, I'd have wondered how anyone in the arena

couldn't tell that she was pretending. The cheers that followed her announcement made it clear that she had

won the hearts of many.

At the expense of my comfort.

"How dare you make such an announcement without consultingfirst!" | blurted angrily as soon as Larisa and

I were alone.

She rolled her eyes, "I tried to but you blockedout, remember? Moreover, It's just a feast. No big deal."

It was a big deal for goddess" sake!

But the deed was done. Thanks to

Larisa, | had to be in the sbreathing space with the woman I loved but would never have... This could just be

the end of our story as

Cas | was concerned.

But thanks to Katie and Kyle, this was just the beginning.
