Quinn"I can't believe that I am here to help the vampires to solve their dilemma." Jack lamented. "I thought I was only here to get dad and leave. It was bad enough that we helped the creatures of the island of Gayalluc get rid of the guardians tormenting them. I can't believe we are doing the same for the vampires. At this rate, they should start calling us superheroes instead of werewolves as we are going about saving the world."Mia chuckled and shook her head at him. I smiled, glad to know that I wasn't the only one who thought he was being ridiculous. He heard her chuckle and blushed, grinning at her."Call me Captain America, baby or Spiderman." He grinned.She snorted. "You don't want to be called Wonder Woman?"John and I laughed and shook our heads. Leave it to Jack and Mia to always have something to banter about whenever they were together, regardless of the situation."Anything you want to call me, baby, just make it sound sexy."Jack said, winking at her.I shook my head.
QuinnIt was going to be hard but it was worth a shot. I looked at my siblings as we were led out of the dungeon and they nodded and looked back at me. Everyone had their roles and I hoped that it was going to work. I was glad that we had brought the sap of the Aselia tree with us. We hadn't expected to meet the dark wizard but we didn't want to keep it at home because we were worried that there might be another invasion while we were not around and we wouldn't find it when we get back. That had been the reason we had taken it with us and it seemed like we had made a very good decision.The sap of the Aselia tree was very important to us and we couldn't afford for it to get lost. I couldn't imagine going back to that island to get it again if it ever got lost and that was why we had packed everything we had on us and came with it on our journey even though we hadn't planned to pack anything with us on our journey. We hadn't even packed more luggage as we had when going to the island o
EthanI paced the length of the courtroom, looking at the man bowing on his knees before me. What was he doing? I was annoyed. I wanted to slash at him with my fingers, pick him off the ground, grab him by the neck and sink my fangs into his neck. I wanted to bury my fangs so deep into his skin till he was drained.I gasped and stilled at the horrible thoughts in my head. I couldn't do that. I couldn't sink my fangs into the neck of another vampire. That was a crime. We were only allowed to feed on animals and our enemies and not on one another. I was the king and I couldn't be the one to keep breaking the rules.I could no longer understand myself. I had this insane urge to kill everyone who got me annoyed and lately, there had been a lot of people that had been doing that lately. I was going to kill all my people if I acted on my urges and so I did the next thing that I could think of.I threw them in prison till I was sure I wouldn't react rashly and knew what to do with them.I si
Quinn I still had the memory of that day in my head. I couldn't forget it. I didn't think I could. I thought of it during the day and in the night. I had nightmares about it. I couldn't forgive myself. If only I had moved a little faster, I could have ended this disaster called the dark wizard for good. I would have poured the sap on him and freed the vampire from the bondage of the dark wizard if those guards hadn't run into me. What did they think that they were doing? What did they think that I wanted to do? Did they think that I wanted to kill their king? I shook my head at them. They must really think that we were stupid if they believed that I was going to kill their king in the midst of them all and expect to leave there alive. Why would I want to risk my life, that of my siblings and our mate that way? They were stupid if they thought that I was that stupid. I sighed, berating myself for failing our first task here. I couldn't believe that I had done that. It had happened
MiaIt was the fourth day that we were here without food and water. My stomach cramps were getting more painful and it was getting harder to keep how I felt away from the boys. They were going to beat themselves up and feel guilty all day about me being in here and in pain.I didn't want that, not for them and not for me. It was bad enough that we had to be here in an unpleasant cell, I didn't need to stand their guilt while in here. I was going to choke up to my death if I had to stay in here and feed on their guilty emotions instead of food.They had said that my transformation wasn't going to be fully complete until I shifted into a wolf but I had started to change and I knew it.I could feel myself getting stronger and I knew that I wouldn't have been able to endure this long stretch of hunger and thirst if it hadn't been for their venom running in my veins. I would have been tired more than this if I was still human. I could feel emotions now as well. It felt strange and thrillin
QuinnThis was my time. This was our time. I had been trying to make them believe me all this time but they had chosen not to. Things wouldn't have gotten to this stage if only they had. We wouldn't have to watch everything go down the way it had earlier today. No one would have been hurt and we wouldn't have to watch the vampire king slap his bride. We wouldn't have had to watch and hear him sound so broken after he realized what he had done.It wasn't that I was happy at what had happened because it made them believe me. I didn't like any of it. What was meant to be a day of happiness to the couple became a day of agony. I was even sad that it had happened because I was worried that the dark wizard was fully taking over the mind of the vampire king if he couldn't control himself from hurting the woman he loved. It was no wonder that he had been throwing everyone of his people into prison.He had lost it a long time ago but they chose to believe that he was only crazy because of the
QuinnRudolph looked at me like I was speaking gibberish. I knew it was hard to believe but he had to know the truth.I told him of everything that I knew of the dark wizard. I told him of how he had killed our mother, how dad had fought with him and locked him in the dungeon in our house for decades, how he had broken free from the spell on him with the help of his apprentice, how he had tormented our lives after he was free, and how he cursed us to be crazy wolves.I told him of the last battle that we had had with him, of the death of his apprentice, of how our father had been turned to stone, and how we had gone to the land of the sea of death to find what could get rid of him.I told him of how we had gotten home to begin the search for the dark wizard so we can free our father only to find out that our house had been raided by vampires we weren't expecting and our father had been taken away. I told him of how we had known that it was the dark wizard behind the actions of the vam
EthanI woke up again to memories that wasn't mine. It felt like a dream but I knew better. It wasn't. I had had more of that deja Vu experience to know that it wasn't a dream. I was slowly losing myself and I was sad at what was happening. This wasn't supposed to happen. This wasn't meant to happen to me. I couldn't stop wondering why I was the one that this was happening to.I was the king and had the lives of my people in my hands. It was hard to believe that I was the one who couldn't get a grasp on his life.I sighed. I couldn't do this anymore. This didn't feel right. I couldn't sit still and pretend that nothing was wrong with me. I had to find out what was wrong with me. The doctor kept saying that I was fine but I would be stupid to keep on believing him.The memory of my ruined wedding day kept on tormenting me. I couldn't believe that I had slapped Ava. I never would have thought of doing that in a million years. I loved Ava and couldn't believe that I had hurt her. I could
MiaFinally. It was done. I was mated to the boys. The mating ceremony was over. Some of the new wolves who didn't know were shocked that I was getting mated to the boys as they had assumed that I was getting mated to Quinn only but they had also moved on quickly and were happy that we were officially mated.Not all the wolves were around for my Luna ceremony and ritual or they would have found out about the intimacy between me and the boys.I was proud that mum was there to see mating ceremony and that there wasn't any knife cutting in this own. I didn't think mum was going to stand still if she saw that bloody crooked traditional knife cutting into my skin. I hoped that she wouldn't ever see the scars on my back. She had asked if I was keeping any more secrets from me but I didn't think I was going to tell her about the scars on my back. She was going to freak out if she saw them.She was just getting warmed up into the world of the werewolves and I couldn't show her the scars and r
MiaI had thought that mum would never want to see us again after last night's fiasco. I couldn't blame her. We hurt her and she had a right to her anger. I would have been mad as well if I was in her shoes. I was surprised when she came out and joined us for breakfast. That was good. That meant she was slowly letting go of her anger and would soon warm up to us. Maybe she would be forgiving us anytime soon. I had thought I shouldn't hold my breath on waiting for my mum to forgive us but now, it seemed possible.I was glad that I had told Albert to let us call her to join us for breakfast when he was about to ask the maid to send her food to the guest room that she had slept in. I knew Albert was affected that she had slept in another room. He looked worse, much worse than I had ever seen him. He seemed like he hadn't slept a wink last night with the absence of his wife in their shared bedroom. I didn't think I had ever seen them apart when they were in the same vicinity. He missed mu
VanessaI couldn't believe it. I still found it hard to believe that my own daughter could keep that much secret from me. I thought that we were close. I thought that we were as close as thieves. I thought that we didn't share any secrets. I thought that... Oh no, o stopped thinking as I didn't know what to think of anymore.She had to be kidding me. I felt like a fool, living in a house full of secrets and I was the only one who knew nothing about it. Asides the revelation that had happened in Mia's room after I found her kissing her brother, I had gotten more from her and I couldn't believe it.I still couldn't get the image of her kissing Quinn out of my head. I wondered what I would have done if I had found them in bed. Oh no! I couldn't bear to think of that. If she was dating the three of them, that meant that she was sleeping with the three of them.Oh my! How did that even work? I couldn't think of my daughter whoring herself out but with the way that they had explained it, th
MiaIt was revelation day. It was a hassle trying to calm mum down after witnessing me and Quinn kissing. She had glared at us with her eyes widespread and in disbelief."Can someone tell me what is going on here?" She yelled."Please calm down, mum." I pleaded with my face blushing red. I was embarrassed. I shouldn't have let this happen like this. I felt like she was disappointed in me and I hated myself. I wanted my mum to know about my relationship with the boys but it was not like this. I felt bad with the way she was looking at me and I wished that the ground would open up and swallow me whole."Calm down?" She squealed. "I just saw you kissing your brother while the others are looking at you. That was a passionate kiss for it to be seen as brotherly. You were sucking on each other's tongues and Jack was looking at you as if he couldn't wait to undress you. How can you tell me to calm down?"I sighed. I shouldn't have said that. "I'm sorry, mum. I will tell you everything that
Quinn"Mia! Wait! Stop!" I shouted at her to stop but she wouldn't. She kept on running, heading outside and I knew that I was messed up if she could get out of the gate. She would misunderstand the whole scenario and harden her heart before I could find my brothers, and go home to beg her.What was she doing here? Scratch that. That wasn't the right question to ask. She could be here for reasons of her own that she knew. The right question to ask was why she would think that I was cheating on her. I understood that the situation wasn't a nice one and it was possible that jealousy suddenly crept up on her but she should have held on to her logic. I was a wolf and never would I cheat on my mate. She was far from thinking right and that was what I had to help her do which was why I had to run to her before she could escape.I ran after her, watching as she took a bend. I sighed. If she could get out of that turn, she would be at the gate and that would be the end of my immediate apolog
MiaI flicked off the paper in front of me, tired of staring through fonts and ink. I had been busy. No, I had been trying to keep myself busy. Those were what I had been trying to do all day, all week since the boys had left.I missed them. I missed them with an ache that had my heart rolling and I couldn't imagine how they would feel as well since we were all mates and were apart. I was sure that it would be hard on them the same way it was hard on them. I wondered how they felt. We had calls everyday and almost every minute but that couldn't suffice for being together.I couldn't tell if they were in pain from our phone conversation as they were trying hard to hide it from me which was also what I was trying to do. I was also hiding it from them how much I missed them so they wouldn't be distracted and be able to concentrate where they were.I sighed. As if we could hide how we felt. Even if we didn't talk about it, we all knew that we were missing one another greatly. It was the m
QuinnI thought I had seen the last of Susan by telling her how I didn't miss her but I was wrong. She was more determined to have me in her space and because I mentioned my brothers the other time, she extended a bit of the gesture to them though it was all too obvious that what she was doing to them was fake and all she was concerned about was truly me.I sighed. I hated unnecessary attention of any kind and I had tried my best to avoid it by staying on my own in the barracks but now she was bringing me out in the open against my wish.I didn't like this and I was going to have to talk to her. What did she think that she was doing? That I was going to like it? She was being ridiculous if she didn't know it and she had to be dreaming if she thought that I was going to like her gesture.I remembered that I wanted to tell my brothers something and was about to speak up but the bell beat me to it."Oh! That is the bell for dinner. Shall we?" Jack said."No problem." John replied.We had
QuinnI missed Mia. I missed her with a pang. I didn't think that I could stay far away from her any longer. It was easier staying far from home when I wasn't a mated wolf but it wasn't the case now. My mind was conflicted and my heart longed to be home where she was.It was affecting my body as well and I had gone weaker and wasn't discharging my duties properly. I wasn't the only one as I had expected. I wasn't the only one mated to Mia and missing her. The three of us were weak and the major had noticed immediately the second day that we reported for duties. We got tired easily and were easily distracted.He had teased us about losing our abilities because we had been away from so long and had told us to get back in shape as soon as we could. I shook his head. If only that he knew. He didn't know that what we needed wasn't more trainings but being by the side of our mate.There was no way that Mia could be allowed to stay and live here with us as she wasn't an officer. We were the
MiaNo matter how much you anticipated or feared a day, it was going to come. I didn't even have the time to anticipate this time as it had come suddenly. I hadn't been expecting it. How could their major tell them to come back and give them only two days to do so? Who did that? He hadn't even given them time to prepare at all and had just wanted them to be back. Didn't he think that they were going to have to prepare? What if they were in the midst of something important when they had gotten his mail? Were they supposed to have dropped it all and reported to work?I believed that they were. They wouldn't have been military men if that wasn't the case. They weren't meant to complain when they got an order but followed without a complaining.I snorted at my thought. I knew that they were military men before I got involved with them.I was going to miss them. I stood by, watching them with my arms folded on my chest as I watched as they packed their luggage into the car.They turned whe
