Zachary’s POVThe news of Gabriel’s death, the late alpha who abandoned his own pack, spread like wildfire through the pack. It also alerted Logan, and he came over yesterday so I could fill him up with the details. I told him everything, right from the beginning. Of course, I wouldn’t have known anything if it weren’t for Brenda, who gulped down loads of water down her throat every time she stopped while giving me the whole story. Her story.I have known everything since day one, or since I met her in the summer camp training. My heart sank as I watched her lips tremble and eyes redden with incoming tears as she recalled the events. And I was glad she told me, because had I known all that prior to confronting Gabriel, I would have saved his ass too only so I could kill him slowly for what he did to her. But he’s gone now. I think to myself each time I feel like nearing to shift. Hailey and Brenda are safe. And that’s all that matters.Evvie came by swell. She was so worried she cried
TASTING MY MATES (PART ONE)Hello! Apologies for cutting in. We will continue the story now focusing on Evvie's best friend, Pixie. So sit back and enjoy the ride! ;)Pixie’s POV:It’s been weeks. Weeks since I and Casey arrived at the Blood Shadow Pack. Weeks since we saved Evvie from that bastard. Weeks since I gave Casey a tour and explained to her what we are, and she wholeheartedly accepted every bit of information I put in her head. It’s also been weeks since I met…Him.Cole Sylvester Callahan.But he wasn’t the only problem that had my heart pumping like damn well crazy.There’s also… Ethan.Ethan fucking Moondragon, who is also my best friend’s brother.Cole and I met at the same time Evvie met Logan. However, I wasn’t of age yet. I was 17 at the time, therefore unable to scent who or where my mate was. But he did. They both did.Ethan was two years younger than me and Evvie, so these past few weeks, I had been racking my brain on what was going through their heads when they f
Pixie’s POV;“I’m ok now,” Evvie says pulling away from me.I smiled, relief washing over me to see her actually smile back.“Good,”Silence fell between us, but it wasn’t uncomfortable.“When are you planning to tell him?”“Hopefully, now,” she says, wiping her wet cheeks.“Alright. Let’s go.” I said.“But first,” I held up my hand and she glances at me just as she was about to turn on the ignition.“I’m driving,” Knowing she’s pregnant and under evident stress, I can’t let her drive anywhere on her own.Evvie then sucks in a deep breath, shaking her head as she hands over the keys. “Alright, but if you so much as scratch my car, you’re buying me a new one.”I laughed, slipping into the driver’s seat. “Deal.”The drive the way back was filled with comfortable silence. We didn’t bother turning the radio on, because we have our own thoughts filling our heads. I couldn’t help but worry for Evvie. Yet, my mind also kept wandering back to Cole and Ethan.When we arrived at the pack house,
Pixie’s POV:You’ve got to be kidding me.I floor the gas pedal, not caring about the screeching sound that probably woke the entire pack house. My heart races, pulse beating in my ears. I glance at the rearview mirror, and my stomach twists when I see them gaining on me, their wolves charging like wild beasts.My breath catches, the mind link still open, their voices echoing in my head.“Pixie, stop the truck,” Ethan’s voice is low, commanding. The kind of voice that would make any sane person think twice before disobeying. But then again, I’m not exactly sane.“Yeah, you really don’t want us to catch you, sweetheart,” Cole’s voice follows, taunting, with that playful lilt that only makes me more determined to keep going.I grip the wheel tighter. “You think I’m scared of you two? Get lost!” I snap back, cutting the link before they can respond.I focus on the road ahead, the darkened path lit only by the headlights. My hands shake slightly, adrenaline pumping through my veins, but I
Pixie’s POV:I stare at them, my mind racing. This is what I’ve been waiting to hear, what I’ve been hoping for. But now that they’ve said it, I don’t know how to feel. I’m angry, hurt, confused, but also…relieved.“You could’ve just told me that,” I mumble, looking down at the ground.“We didn’t know how,” Ethan admits, stepping closer. “We were afraid you’d reject us.”My eyes snap up at him, my anger slowly dissipating. “Reject you? Why would I…?”“Because it’s not normal,” Cole interrupts, his tone bitter. “Because you might think it’s wrong, or too much, or…whatever.”I shake my head, trying to process everything. “I don’t care about what’s normal,” I say finally. “I just…I just want to be both of you.”Ethan and Cole exchange a look, something passing between them that I can’t quite read. Then they both move closer, standing on either side of me. Their presence is overwhelming, their warmth seeping into me making it hard to think straight.“We want that too,” Ethan murmurs, his
Pixie’s POV“So, what’s next?” The words fall from my mouth, watching as Evvie begins to walk away. I stared after her when she suddenly glances back before two masculine arms nudge me on either of my sides, and Evvie chuckles under her breath. She winked at me and mouthed the words ‘good luck’ before walking off to her mate’s room.I find myself sandwiched back between Cole and Ethan, who snaked their arms around my waist at the exact same time.What are they, twins?But that’s impossible.Cole was originally from Alpha Logan’s Pack, the Blood Shadow Pack, while Ethan had been in Evvie’s. They can’t possibly be related.Ethan grins when my eyes find him. “Why don’t we accompany you to your room?”He suggests, and I gulp.“My room is that way,” I barely managed to say that out loud before Cole grabbed my hand and with a wicked smile on his face as he leads me to the hallway, up the staircase where I remember all the rooms for visiting wolves were.Casey and I were both just visiting,
Evvie’s POV:This is it. I’m going to tell him. I nod encouragingly to myself when my own thoughts sink in.I’m going to tell him…About this… That I’m pregnant.What is he gonna say?‘Why don’t you go in and find out?’ My wolf whispers. She shares my pain. She knows more than anyone the pain I had to go through that horrible night.But she’s right. It’s now or never.I knock on Logan’s office two times. The third time, he immediately answers, and the door opens to reveal the most handsome mate one could ask for.“Baby, why didn’t you just come in? You’re the luna now,” he emphasizes that word making me cringe.“Maybe it’s too early to call me that,” I mutter, and his brows furrow.“You are a luna, Evvie. Nobody can deny that,” he says. I don’t say anything as he steps back inside and I follow after him.“Sorry, my own beta isn’t here apparently,” he grumbled and stalked towards his table.“Where the hell is Cole anyway?” He groaned, clicking his tongue as he looked around as if Cole
Casey’s POV:The cold, damp air in the cells made me shiver. I had never imagined myself in a place like this, surrounded by stone walls and iron bars. I’m a writer, and these kinds of things I see before me should only exist at the back of my mind where my imagination comes alive.Just everything about this is so… surreal. I wrapped my arms around myself, trying to ward off the chill as I peered down the dimly lit corridor.Why did I come here?I ask myself that, but I knew the answer. Curiosity. The kind of curiosity that gnaws at you until you have no choice but to see for yourself. I had to see what kind of person would betray an alpha wolf, as they call him.“Who’s there?” a voice called out, rough and low, reverberating through the stone walls.I froze, and my breath hitches right in my throat.This is definitely not a good idea. Maybe I should turn around, maybe this isn’t worth a shot. Yes, I’ve seen the man and thought I’ve fallen in love with him at first sight, but for Evvi
