/Rowan's POV/

"What are you going to do now?" The question rang in the air, making my body still. I clasped my hands, vision blurring while staring at the bright screen in front of me. An anonymous tip. That's all they said. Despite trying all the tactics, no one said a word except that line. Who was eager to break the news to pack? What could they possibly gain by doing this stunt?

Along with my beta, I sat with the IT department to get to the leading site of the newspaper publishing, but there was nothing. They weren't lying about the phone call part, but we could not get any information on the number.

I bought my hands to my temples, a loud breath ripping out of my chest, head lolling. For a second or two, I clenched my eyes shut, racking my brain for the mastermind. There

    There are some holders mounted to the walls, candles burning and flickering, throwing long shadows over the tiled floor. I stepped forward and let the tips of my fingers dip into the water, not just lukewarm but hot and perfect considering that I was drenched. My body constantly felt cold and clammy due to the unpredictable weather outside.Staring at the mirror, I took a few more breaths before running a hand through my damp hair. This place bought back a lot of memories; they were beautiful but haunting. I often met with Martha outside this place, not wanting to spoil her business with my presence. Even though the kind woman insisted there’s no such thing. I was aware of the mentality in the pack, their evil eyes and whispers behind my back.A tired sigh escaped my lip

    It was a miracle that I somehow managed to make it back home in one piece. Reeds interest paired with that intense atmosphere around was not a good idea. By the time I rushed out of there, I was still having trouble taking deep breaths, my heartbeat fast and erratic, hands trembling with suppressed nervous energy.What would happen if he finds out, though? I suppressed all the memories in a box, locked it tight and threw the key somewhere. Will the deal fall through? Does that mean the end of our business relationship? I sunk my teeth on the bottom lip, toes curling in the sandals. Ignoring those thoughts, I tried to muster a smile and step through the door.Upon entering, I frowned at the dark lighting in the room. Turning on the nearest switch, I noticed that my parent's room was already closed. My eyes went to the clock,

    /Reeds POV/The room felt warm but not entirely comfortable, an underlying buzz in my stomach. It's humid enough for the fabric of my shirt to stick too close to the skin, for palms to become too slick with sweat. I could feel the chair dig in the meat of my thighs, eyes focused on a bundle of folders.Despite trying, Jade was unsuccessful in figuring out the actual killer, so I took matters into my hand. There is no way I will let my father's murderer roam free in our pack. For that, I began tracking the payments listed in the record books, knowing that my father personally wrote them. So far, nothing stood out to me.The floor creaked under Rowan's ever-shifting weight, whining under the pressure of his footsteps. He started mumbling about rain and something along the lines of being stuck, which I tuned out.

    I watched as the Alpha took a step back as if he's been scalded. A bitter feeling formed in the pit of my belly, teeth-gritting together. So Reed was repulsed by touching me now? Why do I always let these Alphas see me at my worst? I thought to myself.Somehow I upheld my chin, trying to fight through the migraine, feeling the familiar shoots of pain at my temples and the crown of my head. There was this intense urge to weep suddenly, frustrated and confused as to why he had to witness me like this.Damon's words from earlier stung. More than that, it's overthinking that added to the stress of the last few days. My omega couldn't handle it anymore and went into a drop. If not for Reed calming be down, it would have lasted for hours, maybe days depending on the intensity.

    The twins were leaning against the car door, looking extraordinary, as if they put some effort into dressing up. My eyes trailed between, that impish twist to their mouths almost identical, meanwhile I was forced to focus on keeping even breathing.The breeze was pulling at their hair, and Rowan was gently tucking it into place every so often while Reed gave up. Their skin looked as warmly tanned as ever, and they were just as infuriatingly attractive as on any other day.Do not show them you are affected. I harshly reminded while crossing my arms together, pinning them with a glare. “You do realise that there’s no way I a

    “Meet your family?” I echoed the question, throat going dry at their request. For a long second, I kept on hoping they would burst out in laughter, call it off as a joke. It did not happen. “Are you serious?”Alpha Reed made a face, wiping the corner of his mouth with a napkin before setting it to his left side. “Why would we joke about these things? Besides, we have already met your family and talked to them. It’s only fair you reciprocate the action.”Reed’s words kept ringing in my ears, but I could not focus, vision getting blurry. The thought of stepping into the packhouse with the sole intention of meeting Luna and the rest to those people. A shudder racked through my body, especially as I thought back to their treatment towards me.&nbs

    I was feeling down the next day. In the back of my mind, I knew it meant I was at that point in the cycle where my heat was due in a week or so. My face turned red the more I thought about it. The night with Alphas in such proximity certainly didn't help my cycle.My wolf was more on edge today and likely will for the following days. The upcoming hectic schedule involving campaign for our book fair meeting the twin's family, it made my stomach swoop. Hopefully, everything will be alright.I was needier, colder, and found myself distracted in my head more than I could admit.The night before was something else. I have no words to describe the time spent with Rowan and Reed. For a second, I completely forgot that we had been apart for five years. That's dangerous t

    I took a trembling breath as I held his gaze, lifting my steady hands to reach for his shoulder. The fabric underneath my palm was soft, luxe, almost slippery, and probably Italian. My gaze flickered between his eyes and his lips, urging him to make a decision I could not."Look at me, Erin."I did. Because a single touch seemed to undo my will, and this was not how it's ever been, not how it's supposed to be."Moons!" Rowan cursed under his breath, a barely-there whisper that sent a wave of heat up my spine nonetheless. "Could I," The Alpha breathed and stopped, the unspoken question lingering between us.I nodded, almost imperceptibly, but he caught it with ease, the air coming out short.&nb

    Something indescribable flickered on his face, akin to hurt, but it was gone too soon for me to decipher. I watched as he stalked in my way, like a predator towards his prey, eyes hungry and mouth twitching. I was desperate to untangle myself from this situation, the hair on the back of my neck standing up—my body screamed to rid of his smile, sound, and smell. Before I could act on any of them, Reed pushed our forms flush together, large hands almost covering the entirety of my back. He pressed his nose into my neck then, and the air between them seemed to transform, wrought with indestructible tension. From this close, I could feel his cool breath against my pulse, a steady beat that was clear as day sounding in my ears as I counted them in my head."Oh, omega..." I felt him inhale sharply, though it sounded like a small half-moan against my skin. But in a blink, it was forgotten, the vibration of his giggle in the crook of my neck startling me, making the anger grow inside."Forg

    I glanced over at the books on the bedside table, releasing a small sigh while noticing a bouquet. A courting gift. That’s what my sister called while giggling and placing it on the nightstand. The twins had someone deliver it to my doorstep with an equally over the top card. I didn’t get it. Why were they doing this? This kind of generosity felt wrong, especially when I knew the nature of our relationship. My lips twisted when I saw the fond look on my sister's face as if she was genuinely happy and in awe of me. Shaking my head, I marched towards the rack to pick up the coat. Time to face the music at work. I thought under my breath while hastily buttoning the coat.***It might be the obvious scent oozing past me as everyone turned to gawk at me. I tried quite a few times to wash it off in the shower, but it did not make any change. Then again, I should have known my efforts were futile, considering the Alpha scents lasted for days. Helen’s face turned sour, lips pressing togeth

    I woke up with a crick in my neck and face buried in soft and sweet-smelling sheets. For a handful of seconds, I was disoriented, eyes glazed and unfamiliarly warm. As I tried to move, I felt two heavy arms sliding down my waist.My body froze.In the stillness, I became aware of a few more things. This was not my little room and the sheets smelled heavily of the Alpha pheromones and slick. A glance down my body made me realise that I was naked and cold, a duvet pooling around my shoulders. I was sandwiched between two heated bodies. Everything came rushing back to me. My heat was a blur of touches, pheromones, and scents imprinting the experience to memory more than any other aspect. The turn of our emotions captured through biology is more appealing than any sensation. Moons sake! I cursed under my breath, fully awake enough to bite my tongue before blurting it out. Panic gripped my body, and I shot into a sitting position, my heart beating so frantically that I feared it could w

    Even in my dreams, I was haunted by my mates, their rough, husky voices whispering dirty things in my ear. Two pairs of hands roamed around my body, caging me in between the hot press of their bodies. My head was thrown back as they teased, tracing down my throat, chest, stomach, down to where I was mostly aching for it.I woke up panting, my hair damp with sweat and fingers trembling while curled into the sheets. Raising my head, I noticed that the clock on the wall read nine, the vision so blurry that it felt like I was hallucinating. I struggled to find a way off the bed, every part of me screaming to stay where it was safest—in the bed, surrounded by the Alpha's scent.“You are awake?” A familiar voice asked, startling me. Reed stood in a robe draped around, his right side pressed against the bathroom door. “I was just about to take a shower.”I made a sound. “Rowan is in the kitchen.”I hummed, my hands shaking as the Alpha handed me a glass of water. Shakily I accepted and gree

    The following morning I woke up with a crick in my neck, my face buried in soft and sweet-smelling sheets. Fluttering my eyes shut, I squinted at the harsh rays falling on my face. There’s a strange feeling in the pit of my stomach, warm and jittery, body disoriented for a couple of seconds. As I tried to move, I felt a heavy limb sliding down my waist. My omega was still under the chokehold of the heat. Every heat I had endured so far was different but the same. My senses are heightened; everything becomes fuzzy, and I am conscious, but it feels like a fever dream, not coherent enough to make critical decisions. It’s one of the reasons why I spend my heats alone, not trusting anyone to care for me in such a vulnerable state. But the twins opened my eyes to a world where I belonged. It’s crazy to even think about, and I wasn’t sober enough to think about the events of last night. Only that my omega was never alone, not for a single moment, and they have been attentive to my every

    I could smell my pheromones filling the air, tinged with desperation and desire. When I saw Alpha Rowan approach, I mewled, resisting the feral urge to bare my neck as the bed dipped under his weight. My omega preened, thrumming at the urgency coiling in the pit of my stomach. As he came to sit on his knees in front, his scent seeped into my pores, and my eyes turned glassy. "Patience, baby...." He murmured, swiping a thumb over the arch of my cheekbone. I turned my head and caught his thumb in between my mouth. Rowan's eyes darkened, pressing down on my tongue and bottom lip. I fluttered my eyes shut, wrapping my lips around it and sucking. I could feel Reed's heavy stare on me, making the hair on my neck stand up. He was still standing at the foot of the bed, unmoving, the hitch in his breath audible from inches away."Moons!" Rowan hissed, gripping my chin and making me look up. He leaned in and replaced his thumb with his lips, licking into my mouth and dulling the ringing in m

    /Rowan’s POV/ I snaked my arms around her waist, hooking my chin over the omega's shoulder. The omega went limp in my hold, pitiful whines escaping her. My head started feeling a bit dizzy with how strong her scent surrounded me, almost making it impossible to focus on the task. It sunk into me slowly, growing stronger once I let out a soft rumble from deep in my chest. My Alpha had the sudden urge to scent Erin, but I knew that was the protective side of my wolf talking. Erin murmured something under her breath, turning her head to press her cheek against my hair. My heart raced, heat pooling under my skin and thrumming through the veins. She was the one in heat; I reminded desperately. Despite the urge inside, I didn’t even try to scent her, just took a quick, fumbling step back, nearly tripping over my feet trying to get away. “Moons!” I cursed under my breath, seeing the glassy look in her eyes. “Where is Reed?” “Erin, do you want me to drop you off at home?” The noise she

    There's a tug in the pit of my belly, sharp and aching which I ignored in favour of pushing at Rowan's chest. I cleared my throat, stepping back and maintaining a foot's distance between us. My arms came to wraparound my chest in defence, glaring at the Alpha.Why did I give in so easily? There was something wrong with me."O-Okay, what are you doing here?"He faltered for a second, appearing dazed whirl running a hand over his hair. I tried not to stare at the curls bouncing off before flopping on his forehead awkwardly. The Alpha's mouth twisted as he sniffed the air."Seriously, who was here?""Rowan, I don't have time to

    /Reed’s POV/“Reed, wait for me!” I laughed at the grumble in her voice, racing through the trees, my feet letting me leap and sprint easily over the soft earth in the forest. Looking over my shoulder, I saw the omega running, struggling to close the distance between us.Usually, we played hide and seek, having known more spots in the forest to hide places that would conceal my fur perfectly but make Erin’s pure coat stick out like a sore thumb when she tried to copy me. This time we had chosen tag as our game, and while I could run through the trees, shifting in and out of four furry legs to two sleek ones, Erin struggled to catch up on her pudgy, short legs, and had to stop entirely and concentrate on shifting, giving me more time to run away.By the third time she
