Lukrezia, It was a bit after noon when i went for a walk, the sun was still bright but the feelings were off, guards were on high alert and i was asked to stay in the close primater to not be in danger, as dad said, if he could get in once, he could get again. It was all hectic in my head, everything was so confusing and adding that this morning’s chat made everything even more complicated. I found my feet taking me to a place i once cherished deep, a place i found my peace of mind in, “ you should not be walking around alone” a deep husky voice startled me and sent shivers down my spine , turning around and watching his standing by a tree, suddenly flashes of last night crossed my mind and i looked away, hoping i was not blushing like a damn fool. “We need to talk about… last night” I started talking. “I am all ears” he replied, now crossing his arms and his biceps became very visible with his shirt rolled off, the same hands that did magic to me last night…. “What about it? To
LukreziaI was feeling off, Deep down in me i was feeling like a hypocrite, I swore that i would not let myself fall for it again and i did... I knew the mating bond was still in place as we did not reject eachother the way it should, maybe he was afraid of being rejected but that night's pain was too much for me, was it fair that only I had to feel it.I kept on thinking of what happend and why it happend, walking in circles in the garden, i was so lost in my thought of regretting i did not notice my brother coming my direction, his face unreadable.my heart started hammering in my chest, something was off, i could feel it..."dad has something he wants to discuss, concerning last night's attack" he said, so ever calm, yet his tone was so rough.Hunter, my twin was never someone easy to understand, rough and keeping everything to himself, and when something was up, his serious face was on twenty four seven.But that is what i loved about him, we were a duo to not be played or messed
Valeria Telling them the past was something I avoided my entire life, watching them hapy, without knowing how much their happiness had caused to have was a price I would pay again and again, just for them... But it was something I could no longer deny, they had every right to know the truth.. My husband and I were not wanted, that was a point made very clear by my people, who disowned me for choosing my partner, and my husband who choosed me in time everyone stood against him, but it was simplr rnough to us, he loved me I loved him, and the rest believe what ever they felt suited them, however, some went to extreme meassures to end us. "we had a child before we were married, her name was Mallia, she was the light of our eyes.. At that time we were living in Galleria, and your father was not yet alpha, just the heir, we were 18, and since werewolves birth went on a faster term than human term, I was bed ridden for months, unable to move or do anything, my magic went weaker and my s
Adriano I know how bad the situation is, I should stay away fro her, it is a must, but how can I? AM I a jerk, did what I do the past three years was for nothing and I lost my mate, my one true lve for nothing? the attack opened my eyes on many things, I care about her, fuck I never stopped, she has been in my mind for years and not for one day she was out, but seeing her in the line of danger, hurt, I felt every bit of sanity leave my body and I wanted to rip the heart of that rogue who was about to attack.I was lost in thought when my phone started ringing, "the fuck it is now?" I look at my screen and it is Sofia, Fuck, I completely forgot about her."hey there stranger, no calls no messages, nothing, you good champ?" she said on the other of the line, I swear she is the only one who has the nerve to address me like that, and it is all my fault.When I rejected Lucrezia three years ago, I needed something to calm my wolf down to calm me down, and ,out of the many one night st
LukreziaI woke up the next day rethinking everything said last night. It was hard to imagine the situation my parents lived in the past and even harder now, imagining the situation I put the kids in, my kids.I scratched my hand to the night stand to grab a hold of my phone, the calls last night and the messages i received from the girls and atlas were a bit overwhelming and I had no intention confronting them with the new revealed truth, at the end of the day, putting my life at the line was not only affecting me, it was affecting Avy and Max.3 years ago after my own mate rejected me i went on a log trip, I was not thinking clearly and i did not care of thinking anyway, I grabbed my keys and disappeared for 6 months, my parents respected my choice of solitude, deciding not to pressure me into coming back home, if only they knew what actually happened.3 years ago…Thunder, rain and pain so horrible, it makes me question my mother sanity of choosing to have so many kids, adding the
AtlasThe call i received from Lukrezia made me shake It was too early, she was still not fully to term, why is this happening now, I went to her as soon as possible, calling the and midwives from the hospital to come to the small cottage I had ordered for her, It has been five months since that attack, in which I lost my mate, my april…I remember the day Lukrezia cae to the Pack, and I received the news that the daughter of Alpha Alfonso was here, in the near human town of my borders, the news came to my dad, and he was happy, he had good relations with the families, both the Salvatores and the Petersons.My father ordered the pack Delta to go and invite her to the dinner, only for my mom to jump in and ask for me to assist to, “ a guest of such status must be invited the right way, specially after what happened to that poor girl in the mating ball”I had been married to my mate April since last year, so I had no idea what my mother was referring to. “What do you mean?” I asked, my
LukreziaLife was a magical thing, giving life was something else, as a woman I know that it was meant to be, but I had no idea it would be this hard, and boy was I not prepared for this.The pain crippled me, the pregnancy was not easy on me and it was getting hard to stand, I hold myself and called atlas, informing him that my water broke and the babies are coming, they were strong, we came to find out that it was a boy and a girl, they were healthy and the terms went well, I had to get my body ready for the delivery and the fast paced pregnancy.Atlas took care of me, and did not leave my side, he thanked me for the sacrifice I did to save his cups, If you asked me why I did that, I would not have an answer to that, a woman was killed in front of and all I thought when I could not sense her again was how can we save the children, those poor cups that were victims of hate and discrimination of my own people, I had to do something and I did not regret it, and out of my own selfish rea
AdrianI kept on thinking about the attack on my way to my pack, it was not a long ride from the Golden sun pack, what was the meaning of it, and most importantly, what are the salvatores hiding, I needed answers and I had an idea where to get some.My father had many distant cousins, who welcomed me when I returned and helped me kick my uncle from the pack. Once I was there, the heir and rightful successor, my uncle fleed with no fight.Leaving me worried and looking behind my back at my every move, and making me choose the hardest decision of my life.I remember the night when a different attack happened, an attack I still remember the horror, when my uncle had attacked us, causing my mother death.I sat in the car thinking of that day, how I failed in protecting my own mother. It was a long day, we went hiking and I was checking my college applications and we decided to continue the briefing after dinner, then everything went hell loose.The first came from the east, all fighters
Adrian It's been almost three hours since she fainted in Hunter's arms. three hours of waiting for her to open her eyes, to talk to me, and to see her. Three hours of glaring at Atlas and him glaring back at me. Whatever is going on between these two, I do not like, not one fucking bit. they are too close to my liking. Add to the matter that she is close to his kids. Our offspring are not warm to strangers. We make sure they understand that they cannot protect themselves. But they were way closer to her than normal. Even if Luka was a friend, why would they be that close to her? my irritation peaked, however, when Hunter kicked us out of her room and allowed only the doctor to check on her. "This is your fault," Atlas says between gritted teeth, "if you just kept fucking quiet, she would not be here" "she gets attacked on your fucking territory and somehow you find a way to blame me?" I spit out. both pf our betas at our sides, ready to fight if needs be. He is about to say
Lukrezia I woke feeling lightheaded, my head kept recalling last night's events, dinner, Adrian's eyes, the attack; then Adrian's midnight stunt visiting me. he wanted answers, and he would make sure he got them. I took a shower and scanned the marks I had now on my arms, I called the one person I knew who was an expert with similar attacks, my grandfather. being that he was a previous hunter himself, he had a history of supernatural attacks, he asked me to take pictures and give him an up to date follow-ups in case something happened, and I gladly obliged. I took a shower and changed into one of my light outfits, today it was a bit cold, so I wore a simple baby pink dress, knee length with a soft beige cardigan on top; I was drying my head when a message popped on my phone, Adrian: Meet me in ten, next to the oak tree behind the river. I cursed myself for being too damn stubborn, I should have changed the old number when I had the chance; why does he have my old number anyway?
AdrianShe was in pain, my mate, all the rage I felt when I saw that man's shirt on her, his scent on her, was beyond my ability to control. I knew she was here, I was not mistaken, I wanted to rib the shirt off her, but I wanted her covered until this mess is resolved.From the minute she walked to the dining room, I fight to keep my heartbeat at bay, what was she doing there, she should have been in the safety of Galleria, her being here made no sense, and her father would not let her get out of the pack, and the look Atlas was giving her throughout the night, made my blood boil, ready to tear him.But here we are, in the fucker room, and I just laid her on his bed; her injuries were healing, but something was off, a mark has been forming on her hand, three claw marks, black and pulsed with veins, I passed my fingertips on the marks, the room was crowded, alpha Stepha had left, so it was Alpha Gerard, Hunter and Atlas present.As her pain finally subdued, Hunter took a closer look a
Lukrezia I felt him when he came, as pathetic as it was, my heart skipped a bit, damn you. I was hiding in the family wing the whole day, avoiding meeting him or crossing paths, atlas was understanding and said nothing, I played with the twins and they had all day to tell me all sorts of things, their games, kindergarten play dates, and all the toddlers babbling in the world. By the time dinner rolled around, I had had enough of hiding, I got dressed, a knee-long corset dress, with bell sleeves, and my medium-high heel, I was doing to that dinner. Maybe out of spite or blissful ignorance, I went with my favorite perfume, think something peachy with a hint of floral, and walked to the dining room, as I approached the door, I heard the alpha rather interesting conversation, «... and a dangerous matter that is, all I am saying, if bloodline has reminded within our community, none of this would have happened» To say I felt sick to my stomach of what I heard was an understatement, « an
Lukrezia, To say it felt like thunder fell down on her head would be an understatement, Lukrezia was ready to turn back and go back home, that was not an option, she needed to calm down. She knew deep down that Adrain finding out about what happened three years ago was a matter of time before what happened would be public knowledge, especially with her prior actions coming to light shortly, she thought of everything, the cups, the attacks, how his reaction would be. In all her messy minds, her brother and twin looked at her and grabbed her hand, holding it, «it will be fine, have no worries, if he says anything, I will make sure he will regret it» Those words were assuring, but the effect they had was not as strong as she had hoped for, Deep down she was relieved her parents and brothers knew, but facing her mate was something she was not prepared for. After a long and anxious drive, the twins finally arrived at Atlas’s pack, there they were greeted by the alpha and the beta, and
Adrian, "We are almost there, this pack is huge," said Vincent, he could not stop fangirling over how big and organized the Corrigens pack was the ride was somewhat longer than I expected, the pack, in all honesty, was big, organized" and well maintained, hidden behind a couple of humans towns. Vincent went on rambling on about how the pack was perfect and ideal, which, in all honesty, annoyed him. “You know” before vincent could finish, his alpha voice came into his head,’ One more word about this damn pack and I am shipping you back to your mother in pieces’ said Adrian in a rather irritated tone, Vincent looked rather embarrassed as he figured out he has been fangirling over this whole topic for longer than he anticipated. Their driver, Allen, was enjoying the whole scene, Alle was a former warrior of the pack, he had good relations with Adrian’s father and was one of the few who remind loyally and tried to make sure the pack did not fall into utter chaos, seeing the young alph
It felt oddly peaceful after I told my family the big secret, now that they know, it was rather relieving, my dad called for atlas and informed him that he knows, he was not thrilled but he stood there quiet, h feared that the next attack will be on them, so he asked atlas to take extra precaution for the time being, I wanted to go to, check on the cups, I did miss them terribly…Convincing my father of letting me go to the silver waves pack went smoothly, he let me go on the one condition, that I have someone with me, so I chose Hunter to come.The ride was rather quiet, I was waiting for him to shower me with questions but he did not say a thing, nor did I, it was my decision to not say nor to share the event of what happened to my brothers, even my twin.“We will arrive shortly,” he said, his tone harsh and emotionless, I never thought he would take it so seriously and actually be mad at me.“Are you going to say something?” I finally said, unable to take the silent treatment for
LukreziaIn the past three years, I have thought of a plausible scenario to tell my parents of the twins, I know that Atlas’s mother has pulled a lot of strings to make sure my identity reminds secret, so it would be a mission to explain what happened and how I came in that position, but in the back corners of my head, keeping something like that from my parents would be a mistake, I pushed on the idea of telling them for the longest I could, but now with my life threatened, the twins might be also in dire danger.I walked from my room to my parent's suite, my parents loved their privacy and would get it at all costs, they had redesigned galleria after the accidents and rebuilt a whole new wing for themselves, it was a bit modern compared to the mansion vintage style, my mother made sure it was more alive. Walking past the east corridor, I entered the east suite, a small living area, two offices, and the main bedroom that I do not want to know what happens in it.My father's scent gre
Adrian I spent the day thinking about the conversation I had with my aunt, In all truth, I was the one who pushed her away from me, and yet, here I was lost in my feelings when I thought I had everything planned, and god after last time, my wolf has been going on me crazy, how can I calm him down now? I could not sit in one place for long, so I went out, to have a breather, I needed to sort things out in my head, walking outside the Alpha mansion was my favorite thing about this place, vast gardens, roses of different colors, and magnificent trees and pathways, it brought me so much joy to see the kids playing around and the warriors training, it made me wish my mother would have been around to see this. I stood watching over how peaceful this place was, and how life would have been ideal if my parents were still alive, how different it would have been for me. It was by no means I had a bad childhood, my mother never made me feel unloved or unwanted, but now, that I am in my pla
