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

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 159 - Landon

    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

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 162 - Kai

    The moment we had stepped into the pack, I had asked my Dad for the keys to the Alpha suite. This was to be mine and Bella’s home. I had crashed here a few times with dates in the past, and I had used it many a time for movie night with friends. But, to know it would be my home with my fated mate, felt unreal. I had messaged my Mum and asked her to arrange for the place to be given a once over whilst we were out, so I could only hope the place was sorted for us. I wanted everything to be perfect.I waved my family and friends off as they made their way up to the family homes at the top of the pack, and the warriors too, as they left for their own family homes dotted across pack, some making their way into the packhouse along with Bella and I, as I took her hand as we stepped from the car. Oddly, I was beginning to feel a little nervous, despite this being the moment I had been waiting for...“Your pack is beautiful.” She whispered,

    felt like I was on cloud nine and had done since Landon had spoken to me. I finally knew what was happening. Where my future would be. All I had to do now was wait…“CC, are you even listening to us?” My Dad’s voice interrupted my wandering thoughts, already following Landon as he had left the house to go to his meeting he had arranged back at his pack. And, oh boy were they wandering! Already imagining the home we could build... the relationship we could have... our official ceremony... our dates... my heart raced at the idea of it all. So much had changed in so little time, but at least now there was no more doubts.As I glanced upward at my Dad, I found his narrowed eyes scowling at me, and I sighed heavily. I wasn’t even sure this chat was necessary. I was not naïve. I knew the issues Landon was battling. All of us had been in the room when he had opened up to us, so talking about it seemed a little futile. But, my parents were d

    I can't say if today was a day I was looking forward to or not. I knew it was a day I would see Cleo again, and that was something I was more than a little anxious about. I had walked from her family home having learned of her leaving, and gone to the gym to work myself hard, to the point of pain. Trying hard to cause myself more pain than I had been currently feeling hearing that Cleo had not thought to let me know she was leaving, even if it had just been a text. I knew now I was not a priority, her mate always should be, but I had thought as a friend I may be someone she would want to tell, and from what I had heard later, it seemed my sister had had a message or two, and I have to say that hit pretty hard...The arrival of the day had loomed for a whole new reason now. Knowing there was the chance of seeing the girl I did not know how I felt about right now. But, how I felt was irrelevant. The day arrived, regardless, and we had set off early to River As

    I had showered, and now sat at the edge of the bed, all suited up, in my black suit pants and black shirt and tie. I was going without the jacket as I truly hated wearing them. My hair was slicked back, and I was doing my best to look as smart as I could for my pack today. I wanted to make a good impression. I mean, after all, today was the beginning of my reign as Alpha. Though the first opportunity I had, and the tie would be off, and the top few buttons of this short would be undone. Man, was I uncomfortable!Nerves were beginning to get the better of me, which was one of the reasons I had hoped for some time with Cleo before the mayehm of the day took over, but with the very little sleep we had got last night, we had both slept a little later than planned this morning, meaning we had to get up almost immediately. And, I was waiting now on my adorable mate.I could hear her singing in the bathroom that adjoined to our room, and despite the fact she

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 189 - Cleo

    Waking up alongside Landon is beyond amazing. The last few days have been hectic, of that there is no denying. Pack is chaos, trying to ensure everything is organised for the Alpha ceremony, but being able to settle in Landon’s arms each night has been perfection. I cannot think of a better way to fall asleep. And being within his arms is my safe place. The place I already feel the most secure and most content.Even in the short time since my arrival, we are already begin to ensure we have time for one another each day. It has already become part of our routine. A part of the day I have to say is fast becoming my favourtie... as we explore one another’s bodies. Learning what the other likes. What turns the other on. It has been sheer heaven. Landon is paradise in werewolf form. And to know he was mine made me feel like the luckiest she-wolf in the world. I cannot imagine being without him now, and the struggles we went through already seem like a

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 188 - Camilla

    Oh, Goddess, am I in trouble if my heart raced when I noticed he had walked into the room? I don’t even know the guy. I know he is sweet. I also know he has a damaged soul. A little like me. But that does not mean I am the person to heal him, or him to heal me. I cannot fix everybody who is in pain. I remind myself, as I try to discreetly observe Jorge’s interaction with his Mum.Trying not to smile, as he chatters to her, clearly teasing going off the cheeky grin upon his face, and the glint in his eyes. Their connection seems easy. So, I can only assume that Jorge’s family are close, much like the family Bella is mated into. I think family are hugely important, I just wish mine had made me more of a priority after my fated had passed…“Are you even listening to me Cami?” Bella teased, and I found myself smiling. I had kind of hoped she may not have noticed where my eyes had wandered to. Clearly I had been far from discreet!“Of course.”“Really, because from where I am sat, it seems

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 187 - Jorge

    A much needed day off, having worked non-stop with the warrior squad, training, and then helping within the family business too. Responsibilities were not usually so high, but with some finding new mates, they had other priorities at present, which was understandable, and of course, with Daxton and Kaleb now having new roles in another pack our fathers had yet to decide how this would be managed at the business.The business had been a baby of them all. More so of Uncle Knox, but all of the friends had been involved, and their decision had been for their children to take over as they got older. We, both guys and girls had been trained from our mid-teens on various roles within the business in preparation, but in all truth, with out fathers still being in good health and considered quite young (not that I would ever say that to my Papi’s face, it is far much more fun to call him ancient!) there would be many more years with them leading the business yet.I had to

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 186 - Finn

    While I had been brave and had the much needed talk with Cleo, I had been far from brave since, and done all I could to avoid her. Not that there had been much opportunity to see her. She had been busy doing whatever it was she was doing… likely spending time with the man set to be her mate. While, I was busy helping at the family business. Not a role I relished, but one I was a part of, and one right now I appreciated, because it was occupying my mind. Plus, I was one of the only ones not busy with a new mate, so I was needed in the offices a lot.After a hectic day in the offices, I was returning to my place, ready to put my feet up, but Cleo was laying heavily upon my mind. She had been all day. I knew that the day of the Alpha ceremony at River Ash was fast approaching. And that meant there was a strong chance Cleo could go and be with her mate. Iknew that what was being discussed. But since then, it had not been confirmed, or at least not to me… not that ha

    There had never been any denial Cleo was beautiful. She was able to catch the eye of most men, and likely women too… But here she was in front of me. Naked. My mate. And, well, I don’t think there is any other word for her other than perfect. I was blessed to know she was mine… and I had been a fool to let her go. I knew I would not be letting her go again. If anything, everything we had been through would make me appreciate my mate all the more. Worship her. And right now, worship her was what I planned to do...Seeing her eyes all but roll back in her head at my touch drove me wild with desire for her. As I pressed my lips to hers once more. My fingers sliding inside of her core over and over, making her gasp with pleasure against my lips. Knowing Cleo wanted me did things to me. I needed this girl. But knowing she needed me to turned me on immensely. Her hand suddenly teased at the head of my cock, making it stand even more to attentio

    I never had Landon down as being the nervous type when it came to me, but I saw that look upon his face. He was more than a little unsure. But, this was our moment, and I was not about to let anything ruin it. I knew Landon, and I knew he would just need a little encouragement.I wasn’t even sure where that extra confidence from within me came from. Terra, I assume. I could sense how much she was wanting her mate. And from the deep growl that slipped from Landon’s lips, I think it was safe to say his wolf was wanting his mate just as much. This was our moment. Finally alone, and knowing we wanted one another. We would be foolish to waste the opportunity we had...“Oh, is that right?” he murmured, his voice laced with lust, as he gently laid me onto the bed.I smiled, a slow and sultry smile in the direction of the man who was soon to be my fully fledged mate. I truly could not wait, and decided the best way to answer him was to show him, hooking my arms around his neck, pulling his f

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 183 - Landon

    We walked into the Alpha suite, and a wave of nerves took over me. I could not explain why, but it did. This was the moment I had waited for. To bring my fated home. And now she was here, I felt like a nervous wreck!I had asked for the suite to be cleaned up, and prepared for the two of us, as a couple now, and I hoped to have a family home built in due course. I saw how her Dad had done things for Aunt Lilah, and knew they were a good example to follow. My parents sure as hell hadn't been, but Lilah's parents were. And, a family home we plan together could be perfect. But, for the time being, we would be making the Alpha suite our home, and I wanted it to be as perfect as it could be.I glanced briefly to Cleo to try to decipher if she, too felt as anxious as me, but her beautiful features gave nothing away. We had made polite conversation all the way home, because I felt it was necessary. I could see Cleo was struggling to fight the tears as we left her home pack&he
