Killian’s Point of View
I witnessed how her violet eyes similar to Kiara shifted from me to Aries, and my heart. sank when she extended her small hand towards him, calling him “Daddy.”
A sharp pain hit me as he embraced them both tightly, pulling Kiara and Hanna into a strong hug. It felt as if I were being tortured with silver, the pain cutting deep within.
I swallowed the pain, realising I had no right to be there. I immediately left the place walking out of the room through the corridor out of the Alpha Guest House and sat on the porch. I shouldn’t feel this way; it was my own fault for not being there for them. They’ve known Aries since birth, so naturally, they would be more connected to him than to me. Despite this rational understanding, my wolf howled in agony, echoing the emptiness I felt within.
I was so lost in this pain when a tire screeching sound against the ground made me look up. I saw a car pulled up in front of the Guest House, and Aiden stepped out. Despite our frequent disagreements and ego clashes, our connection dates back to the days when we began training to become alphas.
[FLASHBACK BEGINS]
During my training days, I encountered Aiden at the training centre. At that time, I was unaware that he had a sister due to his protective nature towards her. There was a particular incident I recall. It was midnight, and families were allowed to visit. Unlike my situation, where my father never came, and my mother was absent, Aiden was fortunate to have a family who was always attentive towards him. I had met his father at
that time.
After my training, I was heading back to the dormitory. Given the Alpha blood in me, I had to undergo extensive training. My wolf was always eager to surface, even in minor alterations. Daniel, a Beta known for his combat skills, was my trainer, helping me control the wolf.
I was covered in mud, blood, and sweat, having just turned seventeen. At that age, finding a mate was unlikely. Yet, as I walked through the courtyard, I caught a sweet scent, a blend of peach and honey. My wolf responded with a growl, prompting me to follow the scent on my own.

I came across a beautiful fifteen-year-old girl picking flowers. Her beauty captivated with her long hair swaying in the wind. Drawn to her like a bee to flowers, I approached. She sensed my presence, turning with big violet eyes meeting mine. Her scent revealed she was an omega.

But what an omega is doing at this hour and that too where only Alpha is training.
“What are you doing here?” I asked as she looked up at me. She was not even up to my height and my wolf is finding it way too cute.
“N-Nothing..” she nervously said but not backing away from me. She amuses me with this behaviour because normally others back away as they can’t stand my aura. Most people couldn’t stand the dominance radiating from me.
“Don’t you know that you shouldn’t walk out here alone this late at night?” I asked, raising an eyebrow, I noticed she didn’t budge.
“I came to meet my brother. He is also an alpha and comes to train here,” Her soft voice. sent a shiver down my spine, leaving me puzzled about why she was having such an
effect on me.
Curiosity got the better of me as I asked, “Then why are you here alone?”
Her response was innocent, “I wanted to give him something as I forgot to bring a gift for him. I saw these beautiful flowers, so I decided to make a bouquet and give it to him.” She dropped down to the ground, resuming her work, and for some reason, I found myself standing beside her, waiting for the bouquet to be completed.
“How did you get hurt?” she asked, though her attention was on the bouquet she was making. Glancing down, I noticed a mark. The blood had stopped, but the wound hadn’t completely healed since I was training with silver weapons.
“I am the Alpha King, so I have to train more, and these small wounds won’t hurt me,” I responded, puffing out my chest. Despite being seventeen, my physical appearance resembled that of a twenty-year-old, likely due to the Alpha King blood coursing through me. That made me heal more faster than others but the silver affected us werewolves a lot.
She didn’t reply to me, but after a few minutes, she got up from the ground, dusting her dress. She turned to me, her hand stretched out with a bouquet. A bouquet!
“Why?”
“Could you please hold it for me for a while?” she said, and my wolf compelled me to
it for her. I grumbled at him. I watched her as she ran toward the field. I never had much interest in plants, finding them rather dull, but according to the elders, they are of great use. According to them, we may develop in the field of technology but we should not forget the herbs and ground. They can cure anything.
I watched as she picked a leaf from a small plant I didn’t recognize and walked back to me. In her hand was a white handkerchief with that leaf on it. She grabbed my hand, and I felt tingles.

1 observed as she skillfully tied the cloth around the wound, and I could feel the
coolness. The burning and itching I was feeling, it went away in a blink. How did she do that?
“This is a medicinal plant; it helps to seal off wounds caused by silver,” she said, and I felt warmth all over.
I saw her reach her hand out to me. Confused, I remembered the bouquet she gave me to carry for her. I handed it back, and she smiled before running to the building where we were allowed to meet our family members.
I stood there, still feeling the tingles wherever she had touch
me, and it confused me
a lot. I walked to the building and saw her hugging Aiden, one of the boys I bicker a lot
with here….
[FLASHBACK ENDED]
He asked. “What are you doing here? Did my sister throw you out of the house?” I sighed, unsure of what to say. How could I admit that I was jealous because my daughter was calling someone else daddy? The growl rumbled through my chest, a manifestation of my conflicting emotions.
“Hanna has regained consciousness,” I finally said. I debated whether I should delve into the complexities of my feelings, but it seemed more prudent to focus on the positive
news for now.
them. here? Sitting in the loneliness.” Aiden questioned. The scenes replayed in my mind like a glitching reel, stuck on the same heartbreaking moment. I want her back. Seeing the fire in her eyes reminded me of the girl who always caught my attention… The strong-willed women that I let go….
“You should be happy about it and inside with Why are y
The memories of our rejection haunted me. The ache of regret and longing enveloped me, and I couldn’t shake off the haunting echoes of the past.
“I, Kiara Woods, reject you…”
The words echoed in my mind, a relentless replay of the moment that shattered. everything. A surge of pain tightened my chest, making it hard to breathe. The weight of loss pressed upon me, leaving me feeling hollow. What am I without her? A heartless. Alpha King, a foolish man, a madman….
The torment of realising where I went wrong gnawed at me, a haunting question with
no easy answers.
The darkness of my thoughts enveloped me, and I found myself alone with the haunting realisation. My ego had blinded me to what was sl*pping through my fingers.

“I have lost everything, Aiden. Da mn it all… I am a father, and I didn’t even know they existed,” I confessed, the weight of the truth hitting me hard. The pain of the revelation echoed in my words, a bitter acknowledgement of the consequences of my own actions.
“Killian, I know this might sound harsh, but what you did all those years ago was foolish. Blaming me and my sister for things she didn’t do, leaving her in misery and pain, not coming back to her. I mean, you left her, then you found her, chased after her, and then, with all your stu pidity, you lost her,” Aiden’s words cut through, each one a piercing reminder of my past mistakes. T
The pain mirrored in his voice resonated with my wolf, a shared agony that I tried to suppress. The realisation that I had hurt both of them dug deeper into my wounded soul.
“She had moved on Aiden. My daughter is calling someone else daddy. What do you want me to do?”
“I don’t think she has moved on Killian,” he said, getting up from the stairs of the porch and dusting his jeans.
“The Moon Goddess has given you a chance to make everything right, and I don’t want to admit it, but you still deserve her. That is the reason why you didn’t accept her rejection and the reason for her to return here, he said before opening the main door of the guest house and walking inside, leaving me alone with conflicting feelings.
Kiara’s Point of View.
I observed Killian walking out of the room, and I sensed the weight on his shoulders. I knew the truth, that he is the father, but revealing it to her now could add more stress. She had just woken up after enduring painful nights without me. I decided it was crucial to let her calm down first, and having Aries beside her would help.
Once everything stabilised and was under control, I planned to find a way to disclose the truth. It wouldn’t be easy, but I was determined. Killian deserved to meet his children, especially with Hanna’s health at stake. I wanted her to have the chance to meet him too.
Aiden observed Hanna sleeping peacefully on Aries’ lap, his fingers gently running through her hair while he focused on his laptop.
“Here,” I offered, handing him a cup of coffee, which he accepted and taking a sip from
it.
“She looks so carefree with him. I don’t understand what magic he did to Woods females,” he commented, a hint of jealousy in his voice. I chuckled at his remark,

“I think she feels protective around him because she has known him since she was just a baby,” I explained softly, my gaze returning to the heartwarming scene in front of me. I couldn’t help but wish it were Killian there instead.
“How are you feeling, Kiara?” Aiden inquired, his gaze locked onto mine. I couldn’t. conceal my emotions from him. The internal conflict weighed heavily on my mind. Closing my eyes, I attempted to calm my racing heart. Killian had been remarkably attentive in the past few days, not only towards Hanna but also towards me. Yet, doubts lingered, and trust was a delicate matter I couldn’t easily grant.
“I don’t know, Aiden. Killian is making an effort to bond with Hanna, even though her wolf hasn’t fully emerged. I can sense his genuine desire to be close to her,” I explained. my uncertainty evident.
“I can’t bring myself to separate them. Whether I like it or not, they are the heirs of the Mad Crest Pack.”
“I talked to Killian, and he’s upset about Hanna calling Aries ‘Daddy,” Aiden informed
mc.
“Did she always call him that?”
“No, she only does it when she’s been away from him for too long. It’s like she feels protective around him,” I explained.
“She started doing this when she was two years old, and Aries was only away for three months,” I chuckled, recalling the memory of her crying all night when he was gone.
“You know he’s not their father. What will you do when they grow up and ask about their father?” Aiden questioned.
“They will ask about their father, Aiden, not Hanna, but Ry already feels that he belongs. to the powerful family. He doesn’t see Aries as his father, though he sees him as at supporter and protector,” I explained.
“And I will let them meet Killian. He is their father and he has rights, but I will not let them stay here, Aiden. Once I find my son, I want to go back to my pack, to the one where I truly belong.”
“And what about Aries?”
“He would understand; he always understood my feelings, my decisions. That is his forte; he never questioned my choices,” I replied.
