52. Good Or Very Bad
ALPHA RAIDEN
| stood in front of my mansion, pacing as | deeply considered my options. | have been standing here ever since |
watched Aurelia drive away with my kids... with Tristan who she should never have trusted.
| pulled at the root of my hair when | felt Andrew's consciousness in my head again. He has been askingfor
permission to attack as we both felt Tristan and his entourage drawing closer to the border where Andrew had
stationed troops. It was hard to make a decision that | knew would cback to bitein the ass.
But my failure to give the last order would also tear my ass off as soon as Aurelia and my kids get past my
borders. It would be hard to get them back.
| allowed Andrew into my head and said to him through the mind link, "Keep Aurelia and the kids safe during the
attack-"
"They didn't make it to the border, Alpha." Andrew's voice echoed in my mind.
My feet froze and my breath hitched as | said, "They didn't?"
"Yes, Alpha. I've been trying to communicate that to you for the past ten minutes but you didn't allowaccess
to your mind." Andrew explained.
| muttered, "Ten minutes? Are you sure?"
"Certainly, Raiden and I've been informed that the cars are driving towards the apartment. | believe you're still
there. She's coming to you, Raiden." Andrew filled my mind with more information.
But they didn't quite quench my thirst for explanation. Why did she turn back? Could she have changed her mind
about leaving? But why? These questions echoed in my head before Andrew's voice resonated again. "Brace
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyourself, Raid. This might be good or very bad. I've asked Jake to send more men to you just in case you need
protection." Andrew said.
| was about to respond when | saw the cars fast approaching. Dust filled the air due to how fast they were
moving and my heart sank because | could just tell that whatever was bringing Aurelia back towas very bad.
She proved my thoughts right when she stepped out of one of the cars with Tristan hot on her heels. Her face
was red and her stormy blue eyes had changed to an almost white shade, dilating as she drew closer to me.
Aurelia bared her teeth at me, growling and snarling. That was a clear indication that she was about to lose her
shit and give her wolf full control of her senses.
"This isn't good," Lex mumbled, pushing himself deeper into my consciousness. That was his way of protecting
himself from what we both perceived as Aurelia's wrath. "You son of a bitch!" Aurelia growled, stopping in front of
me. | thought of reminding her that my mom was a loving woman but that thought was slapped out of me. Yes,
she slapped me.
Firmly and precisely, causing pain to erupt from my cheeks. | could have sworn | heard my jawbones cracking but
regardless of the pain, Aurelia didn't hesitate to strike that scheek again, her face as red as the deepest
shade of red. "How could you think of doing this to me!" Aurelia screamed in my face.
Of course, she was angry but my nostrils picked up the awful smell of pain as it rolled off her. She grabbedby
the collar and she cried out, "You're heartless. | know that but | never expected that you would prove your point
this way."
| presumed she and Tristan had sensed the troop of men waiting for them at the borders even though they didn't
get there before turning around. With this assumption in mind, I uttered, "I warned you, Aurelia. | told you it
would be your fault. Are you ready to reconsider? Stay withwith my kids-"
"They are mine! Not yours!" Aurelia snarled.
We were beginning to attract a small
crowd made up of Black Fur
members who were once settled in the cars. Little Katie was also watching as Aurelia roughly
expressed her displeasure. | diel
want her to find out | was her dad the sway her brother did
because | didn't want to hurt her...
| never intended to hurt Kyle as well and | craved to make it up to him.
"We both know that's not true," | whispered because of Katie. "They are mine as they are yours and | need to be
a part of their lives. | won't let him raise them, Aurelia."
"You did this because you can't stand him raising them?" Aurelia scoffed, her anger still evident in her voice. "He
has been doing that for over five years of their lives-"
"That's more than enough, Aurelia!" | snapped, peeling her hand off my collar and holding them tightly. "I did
wrong by you and I'm sorry. | admit my mistakes. What more do you want from me-"
"I want nothing from you except my son," Aurelia interjected. "Bring Kyle toand I'd be out of your hair."
Kyle?
What nonsense was she spewing now?
"Why would you askto bring
Kyle to you-started, asking her to clear my curiosity but it suddenly drew onthat If Aurelia was
askingfor Kyle, he must be net
missing. "Kyle is missing?" | | queried out of shock, searching her eyes for answers but all | saw was pure rage.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Don't play games withand return my son tothis instant!" Aurelia exclaimed, mindless of the crowd
watching us.
It was clear that she couldn't bring herself to be cautious at the moment.
"I don't have him, Aurelia! Dammit! You saw him leave with the nanny before your departure-"
My words of defense were cut short as Aurelia smacked my other cheek with her balled fist. She delivered
another blow to my face, making it known that she hated the sight of me. Again, she didn't stop there. She kept
kicking and punchingand I let her. | didn't know what else to do.
"Giveback my son!" She repeated again and again while inflicting pain on my body.
Alpha or not, Aurelia's hit hurtphysically. It took determination to not grunt as she attackedyet | didn't
try to stop her.
"I don't have him and If he is really missing, you're wasting precious time. We should be looking everywhere for
him-"
"You kidnapped him so give him back!" she snarled at me, cuttingoff again.
Tristan kept his distance, an amused smirk on his lips as he watched us. My brows furrowed and before | could
stop myself, | blurted, "Have you considered the possibility of your beloved fiance kidnapping our son? Or you
simply assumed the worst of me-"
"Shut up and givemy son!" Aurelia barked.
Of course, she didn't think Tristan could be the bad guy.
As much as | could let her hitall day long, Kyle had to be found. | initiated a move to stop Aurelia's punches
but she chose that moment to kickand she didn't stop... not until Katie began to wail.
Aurelia's balled fist froze in the air when Katie's cry invaded her ears. She turned to Katie who stunned us all by
stuttering these words with conviction, "S-stop hu-hurting my Da-dad, Mom..."
