last update Last Updated: 2025-03-24 17:51:54

Who knew arranging an Alpha ceremony was so much hardwork? Or was it only hard work when it involved my Mum and Dad? I was beginning to think so. Every little detail seemed to be assessed, and then reassessed. I was starting to understand why Bella had said she was finding it all a little too overwhelming for her.

“You want the day to be perfect.” Mum said insistently from across the office, and I looked to Dad for help, but he simply nodded in agreement.

“These are going to be the Alphas you are working alongside. You want to make a good impresson. An Alpha ceremony that is poorly planned and organised simply shows how badly organized and incapable you are.” Dad said and I dropped my head to the desk. I was sick of hearing that now. We were literally discussing food, weren’t we?!

So long as there was beer and there was food to feed them when the hunger kicked in I was sure they would all be more than satisfied. “Right.”

    Training was tough today. Dad and Uncle Manny seemed to have increased the level a little for us. Working us that bit harder. Not that I minded. I wanted to be the best I could in my role as warrior and in doing that I needed to be pushed. I knew my Dad and my Uncle were incredibly well respected within pack and beyond for the roles they held, and that was what I wanted to achieve as I moved through my career too; so following their training programme would be considered an honour.“You did well out there, son.” Dad slapped his hand upon my shoulder as we all walked back to the gym block. Training had been outside this morning. We had chosen to make the most of the glorious sunshine blessed upon us, thought, admittedly it had become less of a blessing as we exercised. Pushing ourselves to our limits, feeling like we were melting under the hot rays of the sun. I smiled across at my Dad, appreciating the compliment before looking toward my cousins, Dario and Xavier

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 1 - Lilah

    Another beautiful day ahead at Midnight Forest Pack. I had a lot to look forward to as well. Meeting the girls for coffee was always a welcome distraction, though it was maybe quite a frequent distraction… but they were my friends, and if we, as the mates of the Alpha, Beta, Gamma and senior warriors, were not allowed these regular coffee dates, then who was? A perfect opportunity to catch up and talk absolute nonsense, without having to listen to the guy chat that invades the conversation when our mates were with us. No crime in that, right?I checked my reflection and adjusted my long blond hair. Thankfully, despite now being in my forties, my hair was still maintaining its blond tone. Knox, however, was starting to gain the occasional gray dotted into his thick, dark hair, but I think it made him look rugged and handsome in a sexy kind of way. Who knew that getting older would suit him…I left the bedroom, heading toward the stairs with a yawn. I was in desperate need of a coffee b

    I dropped onto my bed, knackered after my day's training. Warrior training was good for me. So much better than being back at home. Kept my mind occupied. Just shit that Daxton and Kaleb had headed home again. They were definitely something I missed when they left. Not that I would tell them that.I felt my phone buzzing, to look down and see it was my Grandad asking me to call him when I was free. Grandad Grayson. Alpha of the hellhole I was to become Alpha to, thanks to the fucking scum, I had the pleasure of calling my Dad. Not that he ever saw me. No, he had managed to mess up his later teen years from the things I learned. Though, the version my Grandma Talia and Grandad Grayson told me were somewhat tamer than the versions I have since heard.Leaving me confused. Scared. Unsure of how I felt for him. He was much loved in River Ash Pack, of that there was no doubt. He struggled with his past, I knew that. But I struggled with the fact perhaps some of it was self-inflicted. He cho

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 3 - Cleo

    I laid back to relax in the sunshine only for Finn to poke me in the belly button making me squeal, and I hear laughter from Wren and Dario, who were sitting close by. A group of us had decided an afternoon by the lake while the sun was shining would be a perfect way to spend some time while Kaleb and Daxton were home from training.I sat up and scowled at Finn. “You are not funny!”“Dario and Wren thought I was.” He grinned, and I found myself smiling back, as I always did when Finn smiled at me. His smile was contagious. He was one of my older brother’s closest friends, and a number of years older than me, but Finn had always been there for me. “You like me poking you really” he winked and continued to poke me, making me giggle, before Kai, who was walking back from the lake to where we were laid out on the beach area, slapped him around his head playfully.“Eww. Did you hear what you just said to her?!” Kai growled, and I could not help the smirk that was playing upon my lips. I sw

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 4 - Kai

    It was never fun seeing my friends flirting with my younger sister, but they were all old enough to know she was not their fated mate. All well past shifting age, and all having their wolves by now. So it was clear by now that they would not be the one she ended up with, and it wasn’t like we hadn’t heard the tale often enough from our Mum about being careful about getting into relationships before meeting our fated mate; after the struggle she had gone through before meeting my Dad. Though, I do think her situation was somewhat different…And, it was hard to have to see Jorge in more recent times suffering after being rejected by his fated mate all because she did not want to end the long-term relationship she was in to be with him, after meeting at an inter-pack sports event we had all attended. Seeing the happiness as he had realized who she was, as he introduced himself... and then the pain take over as she told him she did not want him. That he was not the one that was meant for

    After very little sleep, I had done well to be able to maintain the level I needed, but I had done it. I followed on with the training session, pushing myself until every part of my body burned. Until I ached and felt sick. I knew I was pushing myself harder than I needed to, but I took pleasure in feeling myself feeling this way. I knew I was working myself, and my wolf, Dex. But this was the way I kept myself on top form. I may not want to be an Alpha, but it didn't mean I could not have the body and fitness of an Alpha wolf.“That is all for this session.” The chief warrior in training spoke loudly from the front of the room where we were training today. “Back again this afternoon for more.” And with that he was walking away, without even so much of a second glance in our direction. This guy did not ease up, he was training the toughest warriors in the country, and that was why this new Warrior Training Facility they set up was proving so popular. Within a month, the facility was f

    I sleepily walked down the stairs into the kitchen, in desperate search of a coffee to wake myself up. Training would be a killer this morning with Uncle Gabe running the show... he may not be of higher rank in the pack, but that guy was one hell of a skilled fighter. He had earned his role of senior warrior, much like Uncle Manny. Both capable of giving my Dad a run for his money when it came to training. So, I knew today's training would be far from easy, so coffee would be a necessity if I was to survive...Only as I stepped into the hallway could I hear muted voices in the lounge, making me frown. It sounded like my parents. I was surprised they were up at this time of day when my Dad was not in charge of training…I still lived at home despite being well into my twenties. I could easily have moved into the Alpha suite by now, like Finn had moved to the Gamma suite, but I was happy here. My family were crazy, but I loved them, and actually enjoyed their company the majority of the

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 217 - Bella

    I slipped through the arch into the coffee store, and noticed the almost unreadable expression upon Camilla’s face, while Lola had turned and given her a smile. I had clearly missed something. I knew Camilla better than anyone. She had become one of my closest friends in pack, and I never saw her as anything but a friend despite her role. I hated the way others could treat her, so I love this new life she had been gifted here with me. But this expression upon her face was reminicsent of our time in pack together, which bothered me.I have always felt we shared a connections, and I had always been able to tell how she was feeling but right now she seemed guarded. It was hard to tell what she was feeling. I edged over to the counter, where the coffee was waiting that Lola had linked me to come and collect. I could not imagine for a second that Lola was the type of person to intentionally upset someone. But the tension sitting between the two was awkward,

  • A Final Twist of Fate...   Chapter 216 - Camilla

    We were a a couple of days past returning from the Alpha celebrations of River Ash Pack, and I am a little ashamed to say, I have been avoiding everyone other than Bella. Hiding out in my room, and sneaking to work. That has been my sole purpose the last few days. Gutless? Perhaps. But, inexplicably in these moments which seem to be stuck on replay my head and my heart seem to be in turmoil, and I am not quite sure how to handle it. Jorge's mindlinks are rudely ignored, and his messages go unanswered.I can only imagine how he must be feeling. But my mind is a whirpool of confusion, and my soul feels like a sludge pit of emotion. The thing is, my mind had been buzzing with the thought of Jorge since his kiss. It isn't that I did not want it. Nor that I did not enjoy it. Because I did. But the fact I did seems to be making my thoughts harder to process. My mind battling with guilt for the man I feared I was replacing… my mate… not that he had be

    The celebrations were coming to an end. We had done the rounds, saying our goodbyes and had begun making our way to the vehicles. My Dad asked us to travel with him, which was unusual, he so often would travel alone with Mum, or with one of his friends. So I have to say I was more than a little intrigued. Perhaps a little anxious you could say. But, Mum looked content as Bella and I said our goodbyes to the remaining few we had missed, and approached the car which eased the majority of my concerns. Today had been a good day, so I could not help but ponder if my parents were simply struggling with the fact they were leaving two of their three kids here permanently now. Settled down in high ranked positions, with their mates. How times were changing…Bella looked toward me with a smile. “You okay?” She asked softly, and I nodded.“A little curious why Dad wants us to drive with them, but other than that all good.”She giggled an almo

    I watched as Cleo rushed away, her hand tightly in Landon’s. She had said she wanted to slip away without any emotional goodbyes, so I had told her to go before we did. That in itself had been emotional enough for me. This was my baby girl all grown up. But, there comes a time you have to let them go. But, I was happy for her. I could see a contentment in her eyes that was new. A confidence too. One I had seen develop in Lilah’s eyes over time as we were together. I am glad it hadn’t taken Cleo as long to find that contentment nor confidence as it had for her mother.Obviously, their stories and their pasts were different, but clearly they were intertwined. Lilah’s pain made sense now when we saw that Cleo was always going to be fated to Logan’s son. But, as much as I hate that my beautiful mate was ever hurt, it was me that felt eternally blessed, because it meant I gained the gift of Lilah as a fated mate. And, for that I have

    I was sick of smiling. Sick of polite conversation. Sick of sharing my mate… all I wanted now was to be alone with him, and, as yet another unfamiliar face approached us I found myself sighing. Landon chuckled. ‘Aww, is my Luna tired of her duties already?’ he mindlinked.I gave him a dirty look. ‘I think we could say they may take some getting used to.’He smiled again. ‘Tell me about it. Not a moment’s peace tonight, but that is purely because today is all about us. Soon enough life will return to normal. Everyday life, where we are just an Alpha and Luna doing their thing.’I found myself smiling athis words. ‘Please tell me that means I get you to myself at least a large percentage of the time?’ I joked, causing Landon to near choke on the swig of beer he had just drank, just in time for the arrival of a tall, red headed man.“Well, young man, we are heading off, I just wanted to say c

    I stood with a beer in one hand and Nori's hand within the other. We had my family, and now multiple members of my friends and family surrounding us. All laughing and chatting as we so often do at these sort of social events. I felt a warmth coursing through me that felt so unfamiliar A contentment. Nori rested her head upon my shoulder. "This is fun." She whispered softly, and I nodded."Sure is, though I cannot wait to take you home." I whispered, moving my mouth a little closer to her ear, shivering slightly as the tingles of the matebond rippled across my body at the touch of our skin.Mum, Dad, Uncle Knox and Aunt Lilah were now busy chatting with Nori's parents so I did not need to worry about them, they were doing all the hard work I had been thinknng I would have to do in arranging her move to pack. Uncle Knox was great at this sort of thing, and no doubt soon enough they woud have it all planned down to the finer detail. All I wanted was my mate at home with m

    I had to have heard wrong. My boy was here, with his arm around a girl... a girl that was not Cleo, saying he had a fated mate? No. He had always been the most non-comforming of my children. The one to go against what was expected of him. I mean, Dan and I were never quite ones who fitted the moulds of the average couple, nor the perfect parents, but we worked. Both as mates, and as a family. Damn, did we work. And, when I look at our kids now, I could not be prouder of all they turned out to be.Hell, they had caused us some drama over the years, as kids so often do, but they were all good kids. One was soon to be a mama herself, and I could not wait to watch Wren embark on that journey, for I knew she and Dario would be truly amazing parents. Mine and Dan's children were all settling down to their own lives now. All doing different things, but all happy, and all doing good. That to me meant we had done our role as parents, and it meant we had done it well.But, Finn?
