Chapter 29
Kiara POV
I woke up to the sound of these two munchkins. Their hushed voices and the cute giggle, which they tried to hide behind their small palms. I stayed quiet as I waited for them. They silently climbed onto my bed from beneath the quilt.
One on each side of my b*dy. As their small fingers poke my cheeks. “Good morning, mummy..” they said in unison, and another round of laughter followed, making me
open my eyes.
“Good morning sweethearts,” I laughed and started to tickle them. The tickling game was one of their favourite games aside from hide and seek. They started giggling with excitement as I tried to reach them. They hide under the duvet, making me laugh.
“No, Mummy, no” Ry unruly chuckles as my hand goes to his tiny stomach to tickle.
“Run, Hanna, I’ll protect you,” He said to his sister between his sweetest laughter.
Hanna let out a yelp as she scrambled her way out of the bed, but I swiftly caught her, my arms wrapping around her, playfully pulling her back.
We played until exhaustion set in and collapsed back onto the bed. Laughter echoed, mingling with slivers of sunlight streaming through the curtains, filling my room with warmth. Our chests rose and fell with deep breaths as if we’d just finished a lap around the grounds.
That was until Ry’s stomach growled from hunger asking for breakfast. Hanna squinted. mischievously, baring her teeth, and playfully growled, taunting with a checky grin,
“Grr..
“Are you hungry?” I asked.
“I’m always hungry, mummy..” he grumbled, as he rubbed his stomach. He was right. This boy would keep on eating if I didn’t remove food from his reach.
His wolf has started to show signs of being present, unusual for a child of his age, but then I knew his true bloodline. He’d undoubtedly keep me on my toes during his
teenage years.
As for Hanna, she was innocent. Who was dreaming in the land of fairies and dolls? She sees life as sweet and the sun always shines bright. But I could tell from Ry he knew that the world would not always be a happy place to live.
“So who wants to eat pancakes made by Aunt Aurora?” I hear Aries’ voice from the hallway.

“Me!” Hanna cagerly responded jumping off the bed and rushing to beat her brother, only to trip and fall.
She is such a clumsy child, always rushing in not thinking much of the consequences… but that was what I liked about her. The trait which she got from me…
Soon the room echoed through her cries as she picked herself up off the wooden floor. I start to get off the bed, but Aries beats me to it, scooping her up and planting a comforting k*ss on her forehead.
“What happened?” he asks her softly, his patience evident.
“I fell and hurt my knee,” she says in between her so bs.
“No problem princess, I will fix it right now,” He looks at me with a smile as he takes her. into the bathroom to rinse the scrape on her knees.
Ry rolled his eyes at his sister being a crybaby. He jumps off the bed, dragging himself to the kitchen. I can clearly feel him being upset about something.
“What’s wrong, honey?” I inquire, as I brush off his hair aside, planting a k*ss on his forehead.
“Nothing,” he replied shortly and I sensed his mood was off. He has been behaving like this if the involvement of Aries got more than it required.
After eating our breakfast I was about to go to my office to start my work.
“Mummy, can I go ride my bicycle out around the pack grounds?” Ry asks as he starts to put his trainers back on.
“How far out?” I ask as I fold my arms around my
chest.
“I was thinking of the field overlooking the woods,” he shrugs as if it was not a big deal.
“That is too far out on your own, Ry. You’ll have to take someone with you,” The field is the end of the border after which the lake follows and I am not sure how secure that place is for a little boy like.
“I was about to go patrolling the area. How about you come with me?” Aries asks as he puts on his trainers. As soon as Aries offers Ry his shoulder tensed.
“Aries, you should train the warriors. You have already missed their training sessions,” I reminded him. Aries had always been gone for days or three. He didn’t come clean with this matter but he says that it was just to expand his pack facilities….. And I can see Ry’s shoulders relax and he exhales deeply. I had to talk to him.
He nodded his head before going out to do his duties. Aurora was done cleaning the

kitchen.
“Aurora if you’re free could you please take them near the fields. Ry wanted to ride,” I said.
“No worries. Let’s go kids,” she shouted. Hanna jumps off her seat as she rushes out. through the door. After seeing that we are alone here. I squinted down to his height.
“What is the problem, Ry? Why are you behaving so distant with Arics?” I ask as he looks down at his fingers.
“It is not like that…” he whispered softly.
“Ry?” I asked sternly this time.
“I feel changes in me…” He tried to brush off my worries. I don’t know how to train him. and control his wolf. I remember Killian telling me that he got his wolf at this age too. He had a teacher who looked after him but for Ry, I don’t have anyb*dy.
“It’s okay Ry don’t worry… When you come back from playing we will talk about it..” I said ruffling his hair. He smiled at me and rushed through the door.
I hear their laughter. I sighed. I knew what Ry was talking about. His wolf is starting to surface. And I don’t know whom to talk to. If only Killian was here it would be easier for
mc.
Aries would help but I had to make him understand that Ry does not like us getting close. So both of them could train together and their relationship wouldn’t be affected
either.
“Thank you, Aurora,” I place my hand on her shoulder.
I would have lost without her too, she was perfect with the children and I had to admit that she reminds me of the only close friend I had in Madcrest Pack, Lucia.
