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

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 179 - Kai

    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

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 180 - Landon

    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

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 182 - Cleo

    It did not take long for me to throw my things into a few bags. My Mum had promised she would have the rest all boxed up for the day of the Alpha ceremony in a few days’ time. So, I did not need to take too much with me today. I stood from my place on the floor, where I had been sat cross-legged along with my Mum packing, and she stood to join me. Emotion marred her face.“So…” she whispered, and I could hear the wobble to her voice. I did not want to cry…“I am not going far, Mum.” I tried, but my own voice betrayed me and wobbled equally as much.Mum’s arms were soon around me, as she pulled me to her, resting her head upon my shoulder. “I know, CC, I know. But, you are still moving out. My little girl.”I chuckled. “I am not little anymore, Mum.”“You will always be my baby, no matter how big you get, remember that. All of you will. This is a big da

    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

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 184 - Cleo

    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

    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

  • 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

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Epilogue 2 - Lilah

    Today had been wonderful. Everything you want from an Alpha ceremony. And, as a mother. I have never felt more emotional as I have sitting and watching as my eldest son was formally made Alpha of the pack we called home. A pack I had become a part of all those years ago. A pack that had welcomed me with open arms and made me feel like one of their own. Meeting Knox was a turning point in my life that I had never expected considering the events that had led up to it. But, looking back those events were things that needed to happen to bring me to him. Bring me to appreciate all that he is and all that we share.In the home that we built we created three truly amazing children and they all now have fulfilled lives in wonderful roles within their packs. But, more importantly, within my mind, I am happt to be able to say that they found happiness. They found their fated mate, and fate was kind. The mates by their sides treat them wonderfully and appreciate them for the truly wonderful, cr

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Epilogue 1 - Knox

    Sitting down as the event drew to a close, I was able to look across to where the kids all sat. Not that they were kids anymore. No. They were all full grown adults, all with mates of their own now, and hell, the scarier thought was, soon enough they could have kids of their own. The pack was also now fully in their hands. As of today, I was a former Alpha. And dang, did that feel strange to think. A little emotional, I have to say.As a young upcoming Alpha, I had been filled with anticipation for the day I took over from my own Dad. Never thinking of the day I would hand over the reins to my own son. It had been hard. But it had filled me with pride too. Emotion hit me in a whole different way.Maybe I was getting soft in my old age. Gabe passed me a beer. “Looking a little misty eyed there old guy.” He winked playfully, making the others laugh.“I swear fuckface, I am never too old to put you on your ass.” I tell him with a smile. "And, if I am not mistaken you are the same age."

    Thankfully the celebrations were quietening a little, and the amount of people coming to greet us was lessening. As I looked across to Bella walking by my side, my poor mate looked shattered. “I think I am calling it, beautiful, we are going to go over there.” I motioned to the large group of chairs that were pulled together where all my closest friends were now gathered. “And chill out with the people we should be enjoying the day with.”Bella smiled back at me. “That sounds good to me, babe.” She winked. “Though, if I fall asleep on your shoulder, do not blame me.”I found myself chuckling. “I think after the amount of polite conversation you have had to endure today I could forgive you that.” I offered her a playful nudge with my elbow. We had barely stopped, other than for food and drink. We most certainly deserved a break.“Even if I drool on your shirt?” She teased, m

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 235 - Luca

    Rocky and who I could only assume was his new mate had rushed off to leave me standing with this beautiful blond haired goddess my by side, and suddenly every ounce of confidence had seemingly slipped from me. My wolf was spinning around within my mind like some hyperactive puppy, and my mind seemed unable to function like a normal person… heaven help me, my fated mate was likely to think I was broken.Lyra looked over at me with those almost hypnotizing eyes, and offered me a warm smile. “Are you okay?”I nodded, apparently unable right now to do much else other than to admire the she-wolf I had been blessed with for a mate. Her honey toned hair was in a sleek bob, cut off at her shoulders. She was dressed in the cutest little combination of a simple black, fitted pencil skirt and a pale pink tank top. And those damn perfect silvery gray eyes were almost magnetic, because they sure kept attracting my gaze…“Luca

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 234 - Rocky

    That smell was divine, and I knew in that instant what it meant. All thought of my drink being spiked were gone. The weirdness of my wolf made sense. My mate was here and I had to find her, but then an unease settled over me as I recalled my brother saying he had felt the exact same way and panic settled too, as my eyes slowly moved back to meet his. His dark eyes mirroring my own.“What the fuck?” He questioned.“I swear to the high heavens Luca, we best not share the same mate.” I snapped. “Sharing toys and having your hand me downs was bad enough, I am damn near certain not sharing a mate!”“Erm, excuse me, do you not think I feel the exact same way?” My brother’s face screwed up in a disgust. “I shared a bed with you once on holiday because there was nowhere else to sleep, I never intend to do that again. Waking up in a pool of your pee was far from a pleasant experience.”

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 233 - Luca

    There were people everywhere now. Many of whom we did not even recognize. Not that it mattered, it was not down to us today to be meeting and greeting. We had done our expected bit. We had been there as family and proudly supported Kai as he was made Alpha, and now was our turn to enjoy ourselves. And enjoy ourselves we were doing. Drinks had been flowing. More than a little freely...I had lost count the number of drinks we had drunk, but that was why there was so many drinks laid out. They were there for people to help themselves to. Each time we finished a drink my brother and I replaced it swiftly with another. Rocky and I were walking over toward the table where the drinks were to grab yet another. We had spent a little time with family, a little time with friends, some time with the warriors that were currrently off duty, and now we were wandering looking for any available she-wolves to work our charms upon. There were still many hours of the celebration to enjoy, so we

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 232 - Wren

    It was hard to know where to look, there was so much going on. The party was in full swing now, and I think it was safe to say everyone was enjoying themselves. Aunt Lilah had outdone herself in organizing the event, as she always did. And, I knew that it was something people would be talking about for some time to come.These were the sort of events I loved to come to. Where the entire pack came together to celebrate. Although, I was doing very little celebrating... well, in the physical sense at least. Under strict instructions from the pack doctor to rest, I was sitting down with my feet up, enjoying watching people drifting by, drinks in hand. That was about as exciting as my evening was going to get. The joys of pregnancy.But, I had Dario by my side. My handsome, and ever attentive mate. Though right now his eyes were anxiously darting my way every few minutes. Ever since I had suffered unexplained pains and some light bleeding and had to be rus

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 231 - Amara

    I had to admit, I was more than a little surprised at the invite to attend the Alpha ceremony with Kent today, but he told me he was bored of playing third wheel to Joey and his new mate, so I guess I kind of understood that. Most of my friends had been settling down with fated mates in the last few years so I did sort of understand how he felt.Joey and Kent were some of my oldest childhood friends, and I love them dearly. Seeing Joey all loved up, was taking some getting used to, I have to admit. Both guys had always been so dedicated to their warrior training, and had never really mentioned mates. But, Angel was a sweetheart, and seeing her with Joey and you just knew they were meant for one another. They were the sweetest couple.Visiting them in River Ash for a few days had been fun, their pack is so nice, and hearing the excitement in both Joey and Kent’s voices as they talk about their new roles in pack tells me that their moves there wer

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 230 - Leo

    The formal part of the ceremony was over, and it had been great. I was now officially the Beta of my pack. Beta of Midnight Forest Pack. Damn, that sounded good... but, ceremony complete or not, my duties were evidently far from finished for the day. Uncle Knox had told Kai, Finn and I that it would be best for us to circulate as many of the attending guests would be wanting to meet the new leadership team, and that meant us all taking the time to chat and get to know the leaders of the other packs across the country. It was going to be a long, long day...I had already began over recent years, to begin to learn names of packs and their Alphas, Betas etc, but I did not realize just how draining having to make irrelevant conversation with somebody you don’t even know could be. Thankfully, my Dad was by my side, clearly a seasoned expert in this role, and I was taking his lead. But other than a short break to grab a beer earlier, I think I was beginning to falter. It was
