last update Last Updated: 2025-02-06 17:44:17

Returning home has been strange. It was always hard leaving behind family that we loved spending time with, but this was something we had done since we were small. We loved our visits there, and while it was hard to leave it always gave us something to look forward to in our plans to go back. This time was different though. This time we were leaving Sergio. Leaving my brother on the other side of the world was not what I had expected when we had left home all that time ago. I know fate has it's own plans for us, but I don't think I would have considered this...

Home seemed so much emptier without my older brother around. We spoke regualrly via videocall, and he seemed so happy, now having a home within pack, and for that I was happy for him. He deserved his happiness, of course he did. But I hated that everything seemed to be changing so quickly. I guess it was a downside of growing up... Because things had changed when we had returned home too. Uncle Trent having passed away. Seeme

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 174 - Rico

    I sat in the lounge, playing games on my laptop, a drink of soda by my side, and music pumping from the speakers. My parents were both out, visiting our grandparents, so I was enjoying the freedom of the house being my own until it was time to head to training.Suddenly the music stopped, causing me to frown, but as I glanced upward I noticed Ana leaning at the door, a scowl upon her face. Wow. My sister looking happy as ever…“Do you need that fucking shit so loud?” she snapped. I am guessing my music choice was not agreeing with her today. Wouldn't be the first time. But she rarely reacted quite so aggresively...I shook my head at her in disbelief. “You got out of the wrong side of bed today, sis?” I asked, a smirk upon my face, knowing that would irritate her more. It was always good fun to annoy my siblings, and with Sergio now gone, I only had Ana left. “Or is it more the wrong bed that you have gotten

    I looked across at my brother in a fusion of emotions. Anger. Confusion. Shock. I could not believe he had just done that. The sound of our father’s snarl was hanging in the air, as I tentatively turned my gaze to where he stood at the door, hands upon his hips eyes full of questions. Before my eyes fell to my Mum. Her expression softer. More hurt...“You found your fated?” she whispered. “And you never said anything?”Her voice trembled as she spoke. The hurt was clear in her tone. I had never kept things from her. We were always close. Always sharing things. Gossiping and laughing. As much friends as mother and daughter. But in that moment, I knew I had made a mistake.I dropped my eyes to the floor. I had hurt my Mum without meaning to. I was trying to protect her. Having hated seeing her struggling with my brother being gone, I thought me going too would only make her worse. I was scared for her. Seemed I underestimated my own mother. I clenched my fists in frustration. Maybe I w

    I was walking through the packhouse, heading out, when I heard laughter from the lounge, causing me to glance in that direction. Surprised to find both Kaleb and Daxton sitting there battling on the games console we had set up in there. And, even more unexpected, were the two she-wolves sitting by their sides. Seemed my two sidekicks had found their fated mates. And, it suited them. The happiness exuding from them was unreal…“Hey, hey, hey…” I greeted with a smile, only for the two girls to look up, while Kaleb and Daxton grunted in response.“Hi Alpha Landon.” Jessie greeted me.I frowned. “I am not the Alpha yet, and even when I am, you don’t need to call me that, or at least not unless we have pack members around us. You are the mate of one of my best friends. It seems weird.”Kaleb grinned, while Daxton looked across at me now their game seemed to have finished. “Aww, am

    Landon had arranged this ‘date’ for us. And, in truth, I was definitely not going to complain. I mean, what girl did not like to be spoiled every now and again? And, although I would not be telling him, I had missed him. It may have only been a matter of days, and we may well have spoken each day but I missed seeing him. Terra missed being around him too. So the offer of a date was never going to be declined, no matter how tentative the offer may have been...He had turned up at pack seeming a little nervous, bless him. I don't think my Dad standing at the door looking brooding and moody as he could to scare him helped. The thing was I could see the playful glint within my Dad's eyes and knew he was doing it to mess with Landon, but that may well have been missed by him... He was desperate to do things right. I think he thought he had some making up to me to do. But, in truth, I think I could forgive this man almost anything. This matebond was proving harder to fight…Landon had not

    Cleo’s lips against mine felt like liquid gold. So good. Perfect. And I did not want to stop our kisses. Her hand was gripping tighter to my hair as she pulled me closer to deepen the kiss. My tongue teasing at hers, sending shots of desire coursing through my body. My heart pounded heavily against hers, as she suddenly pulled away, leaving me breathless and desperate for more…Those big brown eyes of hers were now looking at me, a little unsure, making me doubt everything all over again. Did she not want to kiss me? Was she regretting her choice to kiss me now? I hoped not... not when it had felt so good... but I know the last time we kissed hadn’t gone so well… was she wondering if things would turn bad between us again? Was she doubting me?My mind whirred with so many questions, but I knew I needed to check if everything was okay. Dex was whimpering as he sensed my own unease, and the sound was almost unbearable. If Cleo decided being with

    Life with a mate was proving to be everything I could have dreamed and more. Waking up with Bella by my side was heavenly. She may not have been here all that long, but already I could not imagine her not being here. She was settling into the pack so well, and already becoming popular with all pack members. I felt so blessed.Bella and I had headed over to visit my Mum and Dad, and make arrangements for Bella’s friend Camilla arriving in pack. Dad had said he was happy for Bella to have her here as a friend, and if she wanted to work within the café at the art store with Bella when she started there in a few weeks then he was happy for that.Bella had loved the idea of the art store that had been set up initially for my Mum and Aunt Indie. She and my Mum had spent much time discussing, and how it had turned into a bigger family thing when Aunt Ruby, Aunt Esme and Aunt Lola had added the café as part of an expansion they had all wor

    Awkward did not even cover the atmosphere in the house right now. As much as I was wanting Cleo to be home with me, I did not want this situation. I loved her Mum and Dad like my own family. They had treated me like family, despite the pain my parents had caused Aunt Lilah all those years ago. I did not want to upset them…“You are doing what now?” Uncle Knox spoke gruffly. He did not sound happy. Cleo was his little girl. As much of a great guy he may be, I knew he would do all he could to protect her. I was lucky, in all honesty he had not wanted to rip me limb from limb when he discovered I had contemplated rejecting her. I would have deserved it. Cleo had deserved to be treated better. I was lucky Uncle Knox was a bigger man...“Don’t over-react Daddy.” Cleo put on a sweet and innocent face now. Clearly in a bid to win her Dad over. I had a feeling that was unlikely to work here…“No. Nevermind do not overreact.” Aunt Lilah was next to us now, her eyes a furious glare. “This had

    The craziness at Kai’s family home made me smile. They were so much fun, yet so close I could not help but love being around them. I think Cleo had taken them all by surprise with her unexpected earlier move to be with her mate, but, in truth, who could blame her? The need to be with your fated mate is overwhelming. I cannot believe I was ever able to say no to Kai now.As Kai and I left his parents, we received a mindlink to let us know that Camilla had finally arrived at the pack gates! I was so excited. And did not wait a moment later to rush my way over to meet her. The moment I reached the gates, I could see her long blond hair as she leaned against the guardroom, and her laughter seemed to fill the air. Whoever was on guard seemed to be keeping her more than amused…“Seems we needn’t have rushed after all.” Kai joked as he too took in the scene. “Looks like Jorge was keeping your friend pretty happy.” He let out a deep c

    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

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 199 - Landon

    The day has come. I am finally Alpha of River Ash Pack. I was so proud to be able to say that. It was so wonderful to see Cleo being officially made Luna, and for my friends to formally become Beta and Gamma, and as the four of us were announced to the entire pack and the many guests attending, there was a huge cheer for us, which filled me with a warmth I could not describe.Cleo looked up at me, a twinkle in her eyes. ‘Wow’ She linked. ‘Can we go back to bed now?’ She joked with a smile, making me laugh. ‘Because that sure looks like a lot of people we have to go say hi to.’We could be here until tomorrow speaking to them, and I don't think I have energy for that!'I smiled once again at my mate, and now my Luna as she stood by my side. She was funny. She was perfect too. And, I had no doubt, despite her words, she would make a wonderful Luna to my pack... or, as it was now, our pack. The pack loved her, and she had all the qualities of a truly amazing Luna. I could not wait to see

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 197 - Finn

    I felt Nori’s whole body tense in my arms. I brought my gaze to meet hers and she smiled awkwardly, before she pulled away from me. “Hey Dad.” She said, turning to look at a well-built guy, dressed smartly in black pants and shirt. His thick black hair slicked back. He was making his way to us at quite some speed. In all honesty, he looked like he was about to take my head off…“Don’t give me, hey Dad, Nori. Care to explain what is going on?” He demanded, giving me one hell of a dirty look. I could sense my mate’s discomfort through the bond we shared, and that was before even marking her. I hoped that was a good sign for the strength of our connection. But, right now, I knew she was not wanting her father to find out about us like this, and just as I was about to speak to explain, a petite dark-haired woman followed the man, near jogging to keep up. She shared the same eyes as my mate, so I could only assume

    This felt different. No. I felt different. This she-wolf by my side did something to me. Something I didn’t quite understand. But as we walked side by side through the tree line to give us a little privacy before we would have to go and join the ever-building crowds for the ceremony, I found myself glancing at Nori in what I guess could only be considered as awe. Vala was making the strangest sound, somewhere between a purr and a whimper… I think he may be content… and oddly, I think I may be too…I had been dreading today only a short time ago. Fearing seeing Cleo moving on with her life. Seeing her with the mate mark that proved she would never be mine. Seeing her become Luna of another pack. But now none of that mattered. All that mattered in this moment was the she-wolf by my side. I just wished I could have found her sooner. I felt like I had missed out on so much. If this was the affect the matebond could have on you, I truly

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 195 - Quinn

    Controlling parents, or more an over-protective father were beyond a joke, and it was rare we came back to visit family here. Though, I have to say I do love my Mum’s home pack. And I loved seeing my Grandparents and Uncle and his family. But they all tended to visit us. Obviously the fact we lived quite the distance away was not helpful. I had been surprised when Mum had said she wanted to come back for the Alpha ceremony when she had not come home for the funeral of the former Beta.A little disrespectful in my mind, but hell, what do I know? “Quinn, will you just stay with us please?” My Dad called to me from the lounge of the packhouse that he had made his way to after having yet another falling out with my Uncle Archie. They clashed to say the least. I had already lost count of the arguments since our arrival late last night.I was already up and walking away, but Dad was on my tail. Could I not go and see my damn cousins?! My D

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 194 - Rico

    I smiled across at my cousin. I would leave him alone if that is what he was wanting. But, I could tell from the expression upon his face that there was a little more to this than he was letting on. And, I hoped to find out. I had hated seeing Jorge hurting after his fated walked away from him. I truly thought we may lose him. We as wolves wait for our fated, and he was no different.The thing was, his fated had chosen to date, and settled down with the guy she was dating. In her mind, sadly, choosing a future with him was better than one with her fated. It took us a lot to bring Jorge back from the brink, and if there was even the slightest hope of happiness for my guy, then I wanted to ensure he had that opportunity, and I did not doubt for a moment I would not be the only one.“Sure thing, J.” I nodded. “Too damn busy here today.” I rolled my eyes. I could see my sister, Ana, up ahead with her new mate. My Mum and Dad alread

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 193 - Jorge

    The amount of people here today was ridiculous. I thought there had been a lot for the life celebration of Beta Trent, but I am certain there is going on double the amount for the Alpha Ceremony. Though these types of events were huge celebrations, not only involving the whole pack, but packs from across the country. There were a great number of people from Midnight Forest, but that was merely because of the connections between our two packs, otherwise it was likely it would be the higher-ups within pack, like so many other packs would have sent. I could only imagine the organization that had to have gone into today's events.River Ash had many visiting families from past times, she-wolves who had left, and come back to see Landon made the new Alpha. A new beginning for their pack. One, that in many people’s views was long overdue. And, as I caught sight of Cleo walking through the pack, hand in hand with the guy, I have to say, it was a new beginning for our little CC too. I
