I watched as the Alpha was bundled into the back of one of the cars, albeit angily, but I stood to one side contemplating simply walking away. The need to go and find Bella becoming overwhelming. Nyko whimpering at the thought we did not know that she was okay. There were still warriors out there hunting her. Hunting for her at the ruthless Alpha’s orders. And, who knew what those orders may be.

I edged away from the group, my Dad and my Uncles all stood talking next to one of the cars, no doubt discussing what was about to come, or praising how well their plan had come together. I just hoped their chatter would be enough to distract them long enough for me to make my escape... Suddenly there were footsteps to the left of me as I moved along the path heading toward the house I hoped was the one Landon had pointed out to me where I believed Bella to be.

“And where do you think you are going?” Uncle Gabe’s voice held a teasing tone as he disturbed me, my shoulders sagging as I turned to

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 154 - Landon

    We reached the packhouse and it was sheer bedlam. A packhouse I was more than familiar with, but never in all my visits had I seen it in such chaos. The Alpha family descended upon the lounge in which we were seated, demanding answers, until they realized we had been escorted here with the Werewolf Council. I think at first glance they believed that River Ash and Midnight Forest had invaded their pack.The moment they heard what had happened, and the potential trouble they found themselves in, they were suddenly less argumentative, and more cooperative with the Council members. I hung back, knowing these people had been extremely welcoming to me in the past, and I did not want them to feel I had thrown that back in their face; yet I knew this issue needed dealing with appropriately and punishment should be given.But, I still found myself shocked as the Alpha was injected with wolfsbane to put his wolf out of action, especially when he had not even attempted to fight b

    We stood by the front door, knocking, and waiting. But there was nothing. I realized there was a chance it may take a little while for them to answer if she was hiding, but there had been nothing. I looked to my Uncle, whose gaze had fallen to the floor awkwardly. He was chewing his lower lip anxiously.We must only have knocked a couple of times, but time seemed to have been dragging before I heard a heavy sigh from the man by my side. “Look, Kai, we are only drawing attention to ourselves here, not to mention to Landon’s cousins if anyone happens to be watching us, so perhaps it is for the best that we head back to the packhouse.” Uncle Gabe suggested. I turned to him angrily, before beginning to walk away from the house, already thinking where may be best to look.“You think she has gone?” I threw the question toward him.“Well if she was here I would assume she would have answered by now.” He explained, and my shoulders slumped in response, knowing he was likely right. Or could sh

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 156 - Bella

    Joey led me into the packhouse, a nervous expression upon his face. He did not need to say a word, I could sense his unease from where I stood. “Joey, I can go in alone. Nobody needs to know you were involved.” I whispered, as we passed into the large foyer. I hated the idea of this man suffering because of me. He and his brother had to be two of the sweetest men I had met, putting everything on the line just to help me.“We got this far, didn’t we?” he smiled, albeit a little nervously. "I am a warrior, Bella. I do not walk out in the middle of a mission. I see a mission through."I could not help but smile at his words. A sad smile, admittedly, but a smile all the same. This man was too kind, and deserved a lifetime of happiness. I hoped nothing bad came for him. “They surely wouldn’t punish you with the council here would they?” I asked, my mind having gone over the many possibilities of the outcomes

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 157 - Cleo

    I knew there was a lot going on at the moment for the pack, and I was worried for both my Dad and my brother. I had spoken to my Mum and discovered, eventually what was going on. Obviously, after Landon had given me the basic details during our late night phone call, I had needed to know more.I could never have imagined my big brother with a mate, despite knowing we all had a fated mate out there. One apparently perfect for us. One we would not be able to get enough of. I just could not imagine Kai being like that with a she-wolf. My big brother was an ass. I found it hard to imagine him turning the world upside down to want to help someone he wanted so desperately, yet it seemed that was exactly what was going on, and it made my brother seem a little more decent. To know they were taking on a pack to help the fated mate of my brother made them every bit the heroes my family so often showed themselves to be. Never willing to let anyone suffer. They had done the same for Aunt

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 158 - Kai

    The moment I walked into the lounge my heart lifted as I saw Bella. She was every bit as beautiful as she was the very first day. Nyko went into meltdown at the sight of our fated mate. My wolf was a ruthless wolf, much like my Dad’s, one who took no shit, but it seemed for his mate he would do anything. He had been as broken as me over the possibility we may lose her.She did not hesitate in accepting my offer of a hug, as I opened my arms to her. The second her arms embraced my waist my heart fluttered unexpectedly, and my body tingled with the affects of the matebond. “Damn, you are a sight for sore eyes.” I muttered as I held her closer, knowing I had done what I had come to do.There was a half snarl from the sofa to the left of the doorway. “What the fuck is going on?!” The Alpha roared. “You slut! So, you arranged all this because you had another Alpha lined up all along?! I fucking paid for you to be mine!”I could feel Bella’s shoulders sag as she realised what had just occu

    I stood at the top of the packhouse steps of the Lunar River Pack, my Grandfather had notified me of the official decision of the Council, so I knew our mission had been a success. This pack would be in disarray for a short time, but the Council would ensure it survived; it would also ensure the training facility survived, which I was glad of, because, despite it being set up by a brutal and merciless family, the idea behind the facility was not a bad one. It had benefitted many packs.I saw Kai, hand in hand with Bella, a look within his eyes that I don’t think I have seen from him before. He looked truly content. This girl could be the making of him. Not only as a man, but as an Alpha. I was glad I had been able to help. Dex whimpered within my mind, and I knew where he was going. Where my mind had drifted so many times already today…Despite having told Kaleb and Daxton I wanted to begin setting things up when we returned back today, and having sent Kent and Joey a message to ask

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 160 - Cleo

    I realized my mistake the moment my Mum’s eyes changed. It was not often she became angry like that. She and my Dad were relatively chilled, I suppose, compared to some, but they were both incredibly protective. I don’t know what made me say the words that I did. I had been hurting, I guess with the lack of contact today, and that had been my first thought when I had seen Landon. That it would be the only reason he could have been here.My Mum’s eyes darted between Landon and me, before meeting my terrified gaze. The eyes of her wolf, Sky met mine. Still within my Mum’s body, but pushing forward, her wolf evidently felt the need to come and protect me. “What the hell is going on?” she demanded, and Landon stepped forward, his gaze looking far less confident than he had done a few moments ago; and even then he had not looked overly assured.“Aunt Lilah…” he began.“I am not your Aunt right now. I am Cleo’s Mum.” Her voice was icy cold. Harsh. She never spoke to him that way. My stomac

    I had rushed back to pack, knowing I had a meeting waiting for me. I needed to get things in place... I wanted to do this the right way, and I think it had waited long enough. The meeting room was already set up for me and my new team, but before Daxton and Kaleb arrived, I had my cousins call in to see me. They had travelled over from Lunar River soon after everyone else had left. I didn't wonder it would be long that the rest of their family headed here too, accroding to the information my Grandpa gave me. Their family having been invited to make a fresh start here too...“Hey Joey.” I smiled across at him, my feet rested against the table. “Kent.” I took a long sip of my coffee, more than ready for a drink after today. It had been a long day.“Don’t get up or anything, will you Lan?” Kent shook his head at me in disbelief, I had literally just sat down, with a mug of coffee, so I had no intention of standing up anytime soon. Instead giving my cousin a playful grin.I shrugged. "Sit

    The event was well underway, or perhaps I should say, the celebrations were well underway. That is what most people attend these sorts of events for. The formalities at the beginning were merely that, a formality, despite them being of great importance, the high percentage of guests here had come to socialize. It was rare there were events where so many groups from so many packs in one place at one time. So, when invited, people took advantage. Usually, I would have been one, having friends in a varying number of packs through my Gamma training, and the family business; but today was different. Today, I had things I needed to do.The moment the ceremony had completed, and Landon, Cleo and the others had made their way from the improvised stage set up beneath the gazebo at the head of the training field and guests began to disperse, I made my excuses, to many a curious gaze from friends as I began to seek our Nori and her family. I needed to make a formal introduction. I hoped

    Camilla was so close. Her scent overwhelming. And I could feel her lips so delicate… almost touching mine… and I panicked. I stumbled away from her, mumbling an apology as I did. Only as I did, did I see the hurt within that sweet girl's eyes. I had hurt her. She had already been through enough pain, yet my fear and uncertainty, and that damn guard around my own heart had caused me to hurt Camilla further….I steadied myself on a nearby tree, waiting to watch Camilla turn and walk away, a sinking feeling within my gut that I had ruined any chance. But, to my surprise, she walked over to where I stood. As I leaned against the cool bark of the tree, she looked over at me, her cool eyes taking me in. “I am sorry.” She whispered, her voice trembling slightly as she spoke. Though in truth she had nothing to be sorry for.“No…” I began, but she put her hand up as if to silence me, instantly causing me to halt my words.

    Jorge turns to me with a warm smile. “If it is too busy for you, I can take you somewhere quieter?” he offered, and my belly filled with nerves. He was incredibly sweet.I raised my brows at him. “You know this pack?”“Of course, we came here a lot growing up. Aunt Lilah and Aunt Indie grew up here, so we came to visit all the time with them. So, I have spent hours exploring over the years. Don't worry, I am not going to get us lost. Besides, I am a warrior, I think I can direct us around.” He teased. Speaking to me without so much as a pause. There seemed to be no ulterior motive in his suggestion either, not like some of the the guys you get around. Besides, all I have heard about Jorge is that he is a genuinely nice guy. Not that I have been asking or anything… well, not much…“But, I don’t want you missing the celebrations.” I said, knowing if he was taking me somewhere where it was quieter

    I sat trying to digest everything Kai had just said to me with an inexplicable ache in my chest. That sweet girl had lost her mate? I had no idea… She had never mentioned it. Though, I suppose she had no reason to. I thought rejection was pain enough, but losing your mate must be agony on another level. Yet she was here, pushing through. Continuing as if she was fine. Beautifully strong. So young to have lost a fated too...My pain seemed almost irrelevant now. I could not take my mind away from the suffering the beautiful she-wolf must have gone through. And my thoughts could not help but ponder if that was how she found herself in the role she had been in before comingn to our pack... Oh, I am so glad that Uncle Knox, and Kai had gven her the chance of freedom when she came to be with Bella. She had been through enough as it was. My heart ached for her, and could only hoped that her time her could be the fresh start she deserved.I found myse

    I sat alongside one of my oldest friends and I hated the pain I saw within his eyes. Today was a day for celebrating. Celebrating my brother and my sister and their next steps in life. But the pain I was seeing in Jorge’s eyes was reminiscent of the pain that had been there in the early days after he had been rejected. He was doing his best to hide it, but it was there all the same. I hoped he had dealt with the pain, but it made me reailze the rejection never went away... it always sat in the pit of his heart eating away at him...I knew him too well, and hated seeing him in pain. He was a lot like Uncle Gabe, very much the joker of the group. Always wearing a smile. Always there for everyone else. But when it came to him, he didn’t know how to accept help. It was hard for him taking support when he had been rejected. And, it was hard for him to speak up when he was suffering. Now appeared to be another of those moments.I offered him one of the beers I had brought across with me, a

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 203 - Jorge

    Rico had wandered off and left me, likely in the hunt for a beer, that was his usual tactic, though as I glanced around the party, now in full swing, I was sure I noticed my cousin with a girl in his arms on the dance floor. That was another of his tactics. Charm. Much like his Papi in his younger years apparently. Rico would be making the most of the opportunity of many new she-wolves to work his charms upon, I was sure of it. Goddess help each and every one of them!No doubt we would all be hearing about it in the coming days. I rolled my eyes in disbelief, settling back in the seat in which I had found. The friends I had been sitting with had all dispersed now, some for food, others because they had seen people they knew. That was the thing about large multi-pack events such as this, there were so many people, and so much chance to run into people you had not seen in a while. Too many opportunities to need to catch up. Or meet new people. I, however did not have the energy to be so

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 202 - Xavier

    I think a small part of me hoped that finding my mate may be a smoother path than that of my parents. Than that of my aunts and uncles too. It seemed fate had certainly put obstacles in their way. Yet, each one of them would say that the obstacles were merely there to make them appreciate what they had. But, it did not stop me believing that maybe the next generation maybe that little luckier with their destiny. Some had been blessed with an easier path, others, sadly not. It seemed fate liked to have a twisted plan all of her own. One we were not to learn of until it was our time. And, hope as I may, I did not know if it would make any difference to the plan fate had for me, but I had hoped all the same...However, as I looked at the confused expression of my fated mate’s face, I was beginning to question that the younger generation would be blessed with more luck. Yet, I had found myself smiling, as I added “This where you tell me to piss off?&

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 201 - Joelle

    Thankfully I had an understanding father. One who accepted me for being me. He had often told my Mum that his past had made him see that some people needed more freedom. More understanding, and more time to be themselves. I never fully questioned what it was he meant, but I always appreciated he wasn’t too controlling over me. Yes, he could be protective, but find me a werewolf father that wasn’t.I had chosen to go travelling for a while once I had finished my studies, and despite my Mum’s initial concerns, my Dad said he thought it may do me good. So, that is what I had done, and I was on one of my short visits home when it was the Alpha ceremony. I felt it was only appropriate to attend, despite never liking large pack events, having missed Beta Trent’s funeral.Plus, my brother, Jared’s new mate, Sofia had become a new friend, or she was certainly attempting to be, bless her. I don’t think she realized quite yet, that I tended to

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 200 - Xavier

    Watching my friends become Beta and Gamma of another pack seemed somewhat surreal. We had trained alongside them the last few years with plans for them to become part of our warrior team. But, in truth they were always destined for better things. A son of an Alpha and son of a Gamma they would be above all other warriors within any squad. It was just due to birth line that had meant they would never receive a title, until Landon decided otherwise.I couldn’t lie, as I looked up at the two of them, well three if you count the crazy little, Cleo, I would miss them. River Ash was not a million miles away from our pack, and it wasn’t like we all spent our lives in one another’s back pockets now we were getting older, but we were close. Always had been. It would be odd them not being on pack. But, it seemed to be happening more now as many of our group met their mates and moved away too. Our lives were officially moving on, and that was going to
