Chapter 62:
Aiden’s POV
“Is everything alright? What happened back there earlier? You scared us.” Nick said.
Ashira is now resting as well as Quillon. This is a long night and Ashira gave birth easily and faster than
expected.
“Yes. Nothing was wrong. Go to Zynia and ask her to come in my office. I’ll head there and wait for her.”
Nick looked confuse and I know he have a lot of question in his head but I can’t disclose this to anyone
yet. I will soon, I know.
I didn’t wait for Nick to say more and turned to go inside the office. It’s not too long and Zynia came
knocking.
“Alpha Aiden.” she greeted.
“Please close the door, Z.” I asked and she did. “Take a seat.”
I grabbed a glass and wine for us, giving her the other while I sip on mine, trying to clear the thoughts
swirling inside my head.
“About Quillon…” I sighed. “I guess your calculations are right, Z. He does possess the same power of
the Alpha King. I’m beyond grateful that Zeron didn’t acquire what he wanted but I’m also afraid for
what may come for my child.”
“I understand your concern, Alpha Aiden. Your child is still young and unable to protect himself yet. The
King does not know about this, he thinks he succeeded and its better he think that way.”
“The child concealed his power himself. We saw how he hide the colors of his eyes, we felt how the
surging power inside him was shroud. As if he understand the danger, as if he ain’t a newborn. Is that
possible?”
“To be honest, I’m without knowledge with a child next in line to the highest throne. I’m not saying we
shouldn’t trust the child for his ability but time will come that his power will come out without his desire
to do so.”
She is right. And I can’t risk the chances. It’s us versus the Alpha King. Even with Quillon on our side,
having him unaware of his own power, we won’t stand a chance.
And I don’t know if the King will be too generous to spare a child’s life if that child is what he feared.
“I’ve studied something about the royal’s life before. The Alpha King has a sword embedded with a
gem that matches the color of his eyes. The Paraiba Tourmaline. It is use to conceal ones power, and
let it out or be controlled by the owner’s free will. I will look for that kind of gem, we need to seal
Quillon’s power for now.”
“And what of Luna Ashira?”
“I will tell her. I will tell this to my Beta and Gamma, as well. I’ve thought the less person who knew, the
better. But its different now, I will need a hand. I will need all your help.”
“I’m honored to be trusted, Alpha Aiden.”
“I need Zeke to know about this, too. He knew a lot of rogue and those connection can be useful in
finding a Paraiba Tourmaline gem. I will let you handle spreading the word to him as I know you will go
back to Ravenous.”
“In a few days, I will. And I’m make sure my son will help your child, Alpha Aiden.”
Our meeting has ended and I started the plan on my own. I called for Seth and Nick, began explaining
the matter at hand to them.
“You mean your pup can be the next Alpha King?” Nick burst.
“You just repeated what he said.” Seth sighed. “From how you sound, it means Quillon will be in
danger.”
“Once this news spread and reached the King’s ears, I believe he will.” I answered. Its a good thing
they knew about what Zeron wanted to have when he offered to help Ashira’s case. They caught up
quickly with the issue. “It will be better to keep this on us. Keep this unknown from your mates, as well.”
“You can trust us on that, Aiden.” Seth said and I can see how serious he was.
“So where is this gem located?” Nick asked. “If you studied it before then it might be written there
where we can find it.”
“We will conduct a thorough research about the gemstone. I also asked for Zeke’s help given his
connections with the rogues. And it will be less suspicious that he is the one looking for it.”
“Okay. We will do our best for this, too.”
“One more thing I needed to ask the both of you is to look after Quillon as he grows. One needs to tend
to him when I’m busy. He will grew faster than a normal pup. In just a month, I’m sure he will act like a
five-year old child though I hope he will stop developing fast at that age like a normal wolf.”
“I think that will be my job now.” Seth offered. “I’m the Luna’s protector and the both of you needed to
attent the pack works.”
“Indeed. Once he lose control of his concealment, someone needed to remind him. The child is an
infant yet he understood me well.”
“You also need to discuss this with Ashira, Aiden.” Nick said in a worry tone.
I paused for a minute. “I will. She is one of the person that will be closest to Quillon.”
“She won’t get angry with you this time. The King gained nothing, nothing was taken from you guys.”
“She will understand you. Don’t keep lying to her about this.” Seth seconded.
I nodded my head and sighed. “I know.”

Ashira’s POV
A moment of silence enveloped the both of us.
Quillon was sleeping soundly on his crib after I feed him. I can’t believe I delivered my son safely, I
thought I’m gonna die from the pain! But seeing him now, so cute and tiny, hearing his little heartbeat, I
feel so blessed and all the pain I had has gone.
And this early in the morning, Aiden talked to me.
“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner.” I can’t count how many times he apologized. “I had no choice at that
time. I want you back to me, I was willing to trade even my life just to have you again. I know what I did
was egocentric but-”
“Shh!” I placed my finger on his lip, trying to stop him from talking. I had too much information that my
head can’t absorb it well. “The Alpha King took our child’s power in exchange of healing me, did I got it
right? Don’t speak yet, just move your head.”
I took my finger away his lips and Aiden slowly nodded. I can see the regrets in his eyes, he looked
pleading even without uttering a word. I can only guess how many ‘sorry’ he was having inside his
head from how he looked right now.
“And you agreed?”
“I don’t-”
“Don’t speak yet.” I cut in.
He sighed and nodded his head.
I don’t know why Aiden look like I won’t even understand a word. I’m not that narrow-minded and I
know he was under desperate times. Seeing him fear the thought of losing me, I know he is capable of
doing anything just to save me in any circumstances.
What I hate right now is how he gave so little of trust to me.
I sighed.
“I’m not mad at what you did, Aiden.” I leaned closer to him and caress his cheek. He closed his eyes
and held my hand, I smiled. “But you should have trusted me. I understand how… you felt that time. I
know I can only imagine the pain that you faced alone, but I’m back now. I’m here. And I forgive you for
that.”
He opened his eyes and I saw it waters as it glinted. “I love you.” is what he said.
I smiled. “Me, too. But since the child still possess his power, this can be a dangerous time, did I get
that right?”
“Yes. We believed that Zeron don’t want to give up the throne that is why he tried taking Quillon’s gift.”
“And he failed.”
He nodded, grabbed my hand and kissed it. “Yes, unfortunately.”
Unfortunately. Yes, I will agree to him on that. We shared the same thought and I won’t ask for more of
my son. He was just born and a huge responsibility is already hanging on his shoulder. I can’t believe I
will give birth to a possible candidate for the royal throne but given the enemy we will face because of
this, I can’t be joyed.
“Is there anything we could do to… stop any possible danger?”
I looked at my son’s crib and watched as he sleeps. Oh, young one. Aiden hugged me from behind and
I know we share the same emotions.
I can feel him. We are scared.
“I’m already working on it.”
“Okay. I trust you and I believe you can find the answers. Tell me if I can help in any way, please…”
“You’re already helping, baby.” he turned me to face him. “Being the mother of our child is help enough.
Though you need to watch out for some possibility that he may leak his powers unintentionally.” he
kissed me on my cheek and I chuckled from how his words sounded.
“f course he might without intent. You made it seem like he knows what he is doing. O” I chuckled
more.
“Oh, he does.” Aiden said with pride.
What?
I pushed him and find his eyes. He is serious! Quillon was just born yesterday and Aiden’s already
telling me that our child is with knowledge of this problem? At one day old?!
Aiden gave me a smug smile and that creep me more! “Aiden!” I smacked his chest. “Tell me what you
mean!”
He laughed and grabbed my fist that hitting him, pulling me closer. “Believe me, Ashira. Our son
understands us even at his early age. The level of his intelligence is not of a regular stealer pup, he is
more developed. Try talking to him about things and you will see it for yourself.”
Oh, wow. I never thought I will have this feeling of discovering more from my child. No wonder my wolf
said he is grumpy and snob! Quillon is a unique child!
“I can’t believe I gave birth to such a beautiful child like him…” I whispered, dozing off with my
thoughts.
“With or without these gifts, he is beautiful.” Aiden said, looking at Quillon’s crib. “And cute. Our son is
the second cutest thing I’ve seen in my life.”
“Huh?” Who’s the first one?
Aiden laughed and pulled me for an embrace. “Thank you for giving me a family, Ashira. Thank you for
making me the happiest man alive.”
***
It’s been two months since I gave birth to Quillon and I can’t believe how fast he grows.
“Quillon, don’t go too far!”
We are at our spot and Quillon can’t pull himself out of the river. He loved running after the fishes and
he’s been on it for half an hour.
Yes, my two months old son is already swimming. He can also talk, almost do everything, to be honest.
Normal wolf pup reaches this stage on fifth month and then the development will stop, making them
grow normally. Stealer wolf pup on the other hand only needed two months and then the development
will be in a regular time.
But Quillon has reached the normal development stage at one month. He is 100cm tall now, his
speaking is well and can easily learn things. His strength is too much that he already started having a
spar training with Seth.
Aiden said it was because of the King’s ability. He is born with a gift that even the Alpha King failed to
take.
Suddenly, I felt a cold shoulder and looked at where Quillon was.
Bzzt! Bzzt!
I sighed.
He got excited again and electrify the river. Oh my. “Quillon! You’ll kill all those fishes, I’m telling you.”
He popped his head out of the water and grinned at me. “I’m sorry, Mommy.” Oh, this young boy! How
can I even get mad at him if he knew my weakness too well! I can’t stop admiring how cute my son is
when he grins like that!
Damn, my heart is melting!
“Okay, come up here and eat something. You’ve been scaring the fishes for half an hour now.”
“Okay, Mommy!”
It only took him a blink and he was beside me. I didn’t even sense him coming but I got used to it now.
Before, I can’t stop halting or my eyes widening because of shock. But its part of his gift. He moves like
a mist, like feather in the wind.
“Mom, I think Uncle Seth was affected with my power. He hasn’t come up yet.”
“Oh shi-cheesedog!” I forgot Seth was also swimming at the river to guard on Quillon! Fuck! Was he
electrocuted?!
I ran to the riverside and called for him. “Seth! Are you alright?!”
After a long minute, Seth popped out of the water with a dazed face. “That was not fun.” he muttered
and shook his head.
“Sorry, Uncle Seth.” Quillon held on my dress, hiding behind me while he held a sandwich on his hand.
“No worries, bud. You almost win there though.” Seth smiled and pat Quillon’s head.
I sighed and urged them to eat now. Aiden was at the pack and I know why he was so busy.
He never stopped looking for the paraiba tourmaline gemstone for straight two months now. He come
home at night and took off in the morning. He was so hell-bend on looking for the gem together with
Nick, Zeke also helps on the other side.
Aiden still give us time, taking the weekends off. Of course he never let the day pass without teh
sleepless nights he promised when I was still pregnant. Oh my, remembering it makes me flush!
And if there’s a person who won’t be swayed by Quillon’s manipulative cuteness, that’s Aiden. Quillon
look up to him a lot, he idolize his father and I’m grateful that my son does.
“What game were you playing that you got too excited, baby?”
“Fishing a hundred. Uncle Seth was so good at it because he has large hands.”
Seth burst out laughing, or boasting. Argh. And here I am thinking what might excites Quillon to the
point of losing control of his gift.
“You almost beat me though.”
“Yeah, but I lost my cool again.” Aww. Now my baby boy is pouting. He looks so cute!
There are times that Quillon loses control of his power. When he was too mad, too excited or too sad.
The child always feel down when he does.
At a young age and mind, he know the danger of being found and he don’t want to harm anyone
because of him. I feel bad whenever he is like this, thinking like a grown up man.
I held cheeks and kissed him playfully.
“Mommyyyyy!~” he complains. I laughed.
“You know, baby, its okay to lose control sometimes. As long as you will be reminded of concealing it,
you’re good, okay?”
“But Daddy wants me to conceal it. I promised I will help him.”
I will surely kill Aiden later.
I smiled at my child. “You are helping him, baby. You’re doing good. He won’t be mad at you for little
mistakes, he loves you.”
“I know he does, Mommy~…”
“Aww, come here, baby!” I squish him inside my arms, in a tight embrace. I thought he will continue his
sad emotion but he started laughing.
“Hey, Kill!”
=_= That was Nick!
“Nick, I told you to stop calling him that!” I nagged and gave him a deadly stare. This loveless Beta
started giving my son some weird nickname!
I felt Quillon moved to my shoulder and take a peak to who’s coming. Huh! I know him well and he
sensed his Daddy coming!
“Daddy!”
I watched as he run towards Aiden. He never use his super-enhanced speed whenever he wanted to
go to his father. It was as if he wanted the time to be longer, and I know why.
He miss him truly.
“Hey, little one!” Aiden crouch and picked Quillon up, swinging him in the air.
I felt a warm hand touching my heart and I always feel this whenever I watch the both of them together.
My family…
Aiden looked at me and I was immediately drowned by his gaze.
‘I got off early.’ he said in our mind and smiled at me.
These days, I can’t stop myself quivering whenever he give me the ‘look’. You know, that look where
you know you’ll both end up in bed. Damnnn!
‘What are you thinking…’ he said in a teasing voice. I can only imagine how I look right now for him to
read right through me!
“C-Come eat some snacks!” I called to them, taking my eyes off him. A daddy-Aiden is too much to
handle! Much hotter and sexier in my eyes!
“You’re so transparent.” Seth scoffed. “Go get a room. Aw!”
Serves him right! I just threw a bottle of water in his head, ladies and gentlemen.
I hear Quillon telling stories to his Dad as they came nearer.
“...then I almost electrify Uncle Seth.” I heard him say in a cute guilty voice. I smiled as I prepare more
sandwiches for Aiden and Nick. Now, this small swimming of Quillon turned to a picnic.
“Really? You should have try roasting him sometimes.” Aiden laughed.
“Hey! Don’t listen to your father, buddy.” Seth said quickly. “Bad influence.” he said to Aiden with
widened eyes. Aiden just laughed as he hugged Quillon who sat on his crossed legs.
Aww. I wanted to cuddle with them so baaaad!
“How’s your treasure hunt, Dad?” our son asked while eating his sandwich. He knows that Aiden was
searching for the paraiban tourmaline gem and he also know it will help him conceal his power.
I was against it at first but Aiden trust our son too much, he trusted his ability and capability to
understand in a young age. And he is not mistaken because Quillon took the information with an open
mind.
Also, I think Aiden don’t want Quillon to get mad at him for being gone for so long. He want our son to
know that he is doing this for him, his way of showing his love.
“We finally found the treasure.” Aiden said to Quillon, poking his nose while smiling widely.
My eyes widened and Quillon mirrored the same expression! He found it!
“Really, Daddy?!” our son began jumping like a spring and I can’t take my eyes off of Aiden, still in
shock that he found it this early!
He saw my expression and moved close to me. “I found it, baby.” he whispered, leaning in to kiss my
lips tenderly. “I found it at last.”
“How? Just today?”
“Yeah. A lady rogue came to the pack, she possess the gem in her necklace that was given to her by
her mother.” he pulled me inside his warm embrace.
I can’t tell how happy I was. Finally, our child won’t worry about concealing his power. Finally…
“And also,” he turned to look to Seth. “Hey, Seth. Nick found his mate!” Aiden laughed.
“For real?!” Seth looked at Nick and punched his arm. I can’t believe this!
“But why does Nick looked bothered?” I asked. “Who’s his mate?” I can’t believe he found his fated one
even though its not yet the mapping!
“No wonder his mate can’t be found by the mapping, she’s a rogue!” Aiden announced!
“No way! For real? The same lady rogue that had the gem?!” I exclaimed!
“She hates me!” Nick looked like he was about to cry as he shouted. Instead of adding more words, he
stuffed his mouth with food.
Okay, I think he’s stress-eating.
“What’s wrong with him?” I asked to Aiden. Seth won’t stop bothering Nick, teasing the poor Beta. My
son on the other hand, from jumping like a spring is now running after a butterfly.
Aiden pulled me closer to him. “The dog got excited about the gem, he accidentally saw his mate
naked. She was showering at the guesthouse.”
“What?! I bet that was not an accident!” Seth teased more.
We all laugh while Nick seems down.
They have found the gem, Quillon’s power will be sealed and he can start living like a normal pup, he
can now play with other wolves, everything is going back to pieces!
“Thank you for your hardwork.” I said to Aiden when everyone was busy doing their own thing. He
looked down and find my eyes, giving me the most genuine smile.
He is happy like I am.
“I promised to protect you and our child.”
“And you always did. Thank you for loving us, Aiden.” I whispered.
His hands on my waist tightened, drawing me closer to him than I already is. I can feel his heart beating
loud but with relief. “I love you.”
Burying my face to his neck, I hugged him tight. “I love you, too.”
I will never get tired of loving you until my last breath, Aiden.
“I want huggies, too!” Quillon jumped from nowhere and both of us laughed as we held him inside our
arms.
I may have started the wrong way, but having Aiden and Quillon on my arms right now proved that I’m
far from how I was at the beginning. A loving mate, a loving son, I won’t ask for more…
“I want a baby sister…” Quillon said out of the blue. Aiden and I looked at each other. I was startled
from what I heard but I can see in Aiden’s eyes that he loved the idea.
“Quillon, did Daddy told you to say that in your portal?” I asked sweetly and caress my son’s cheeks.
He looks so cute!
‘Yes, Mommy, but he said not to tell you.’ my son answered in my head.
I burst out laughing as Aiden scratched the back of his head, known that he was found. I grabbed them
both and hug them tight once more. “I love you both!”
