I was mad. Well, that wasn't news. I was always mad recently. I couldn't believe we had lost. We had lost woefully to the vampires and had barely made it back to our land when we had fleed.

I winced as the maid dabbed a piece of cotton wool on my face, using it to clean my wounds. I would heal pretty quickly but I had survived enough wounds from the fight that I would like to clean them up and not look like what I had fought. The men would soon come in before my body was done with the healing process and I didn't want to look as pathetic as I felt. I felt ashamed of myself already and I didn't want to look more shameful in their presence.

"I'm sorry, your highness." The maid apologized as she realized that I had winced.

I dismissed her apology with a wave. "Don't worry about it. I knew it would hurt before I called you to wipe off the dried blood on the wounds."

She paused and looked at me as if she couldn't understand why I was being humble.

I sighed. I was injured. She could

    EthanI glanced up at Rudolph as the door opened. I wished I could have joined the battle but Ava had become so sick that I couldn't leave her alone. Pregnancy was always hard on vampires and I already concluded that I wasn't getting her pregnant again no matter how beautiful she looked.Her fever had gone down and she was sleeping peacefully but my own heart wasn't at peace. What was going on on the battlefield? What had happened? How many men had the other king brought with him? Who was winning? Were we the one? How was it? How tough was the war? Who had dared to want my wife? I almost ran myself crazy with questions as I sat there in the room, tending over Ava and torturing myself with imagination of what was going on at the battlefield.I breathed a sigh of relief as Rudolph walked in. That had to mean the war was over and the enemies had fled to their land. He wouldn't have been here otherwise but his blank expression wasn't helping.The war was over but had we lost? Was he sad b

    QuinnI had been skeptical of how they were going to win a war without guns and was shocked when I heard that they didn't use ammunition. What type of cities in this era didn't fight with guns, despite how sophisticated and advanced their land seemed?Obviously, the vampires didn't. They had never felt the need for it. I assumed that was because they loved peace but the other vampires hadn't brought guns with them as well.I nodded, realizing that it was their thing. I snapped out of my thoughts, glad that we had won the war and we were free to go home. We would spend three more days with them and then we would wave them goodbye. I hoped they wouldn't have to call for us to fight again. I didn't want to travel for the next few months. I just wanted to rest.I knew it wasn't a big deal that the vampires didn't fight with guns. Werewolves didn't as well. We shifted into animals and fought with our claws and teeth. I guessed it was a common thing for the supernaturals to believe that the

    QuinnWe bade the vampires goodbye and set out on our journey. They were sad to see us leave but they understood us. I watched as Ava and Mia got emotional, waving each other goodbye. I smiled as I tried my best to not roll my eyes. Those women were as dramatic as they could be."Promise you will come again to visit?" Ava pouted.Mia chuckled. "I can't guarantee that as I don't know what we are going home for." She glanced at me, wondering if I had figured it out yet and I shrugged to let her know that I didn't know much of it myself.Dad rarely gave emergency calls and I couldn't imagine what it was about this time. I knew that we would find out once we got home and I was curious to know why he had called which was why we were leaving the very day he called, even though it was late already to travel.I was sure that nothing could harm us and we didn't have to worry about late night travel. It wasn't like any human could jump out of somewhere to rob. The greedy thief would be the one

    QuinnI was the first to get over my shock and I turned to dad, my eyes wide with fear. "You fainted, dad?"He nodded. I swallowed, hoping it wasn't what I was thinking. No, it didn't have to be. It was too soon. It shouldn't be happening. Not yet. He was too young for that (I knew he was old but I didn't care). It was still too early for that. I didn't want that yet and from the look in my eyes, I knew he had guessed where my thoughts were heading.I glanced at Jack and John but they were already looking at me, their eyes filled with worry. They must have known what I was thinking as they were thinking the same thing too.Dad sighed, his eyes pooling with moisture as he glanced at us. I hoped that he wasn't about to confirm to us what we already suspected.He turned to Vanessa. "Babe, can you get me some Almond tea? I suddenly crave it. I would love you to make it."She nodded. "It's too late to call for the kitchen staff to make the tea when I was the one who sent them in to have an

    QuinnI sat on the balcony of my room, twirling a glass of wine in my hand and lost in thoughts. What was this? Was there never going to be any rest for me? I doubted that. There had to be a rest for me. I couldn't keep doing this. I couldn't keep going from one adventure to another problem. I was tired. Even if Mia and my brothers weren't tired, I was.This was ridiculous. What a bad timing, a perfectly wrong timing. I wasn't scared of the duel between me and my cousin. I knew that I was going to have to be the alpha one day. I had been prepared for it all my life. It wasn't a foreign deal to me but I didn't want it to be now.I turned to the door as I heard it open and someone walked in. I caught a sniff of the person's smell and smiled, knowing that I didn't have to turn to know who had entered. My senses had improved ever since dad's own started waning and I knew that Tyrex, my cousin would have also started feeling the same as I was. He would have known that it was time for the d

    QuinnI watched as dad picked up his call. We all listened to his one-sided conversation with the other person on the line, out cutleries paused in mid-air. after a while, dad dropped his phone and sighed."Who was that?" Jack asked."One of the elders." Dad replied. "He said one of the pack members was assaulted by some members of the other packs and he wants us to fight."Mia gasped. "You can't fight our battle.""What is a pack?" Vanessa asked.We all looked at one another at her question and knew that we had messed up. I wondered if dad had forgotten that she was at the table with us. There was no way that she was not eventually going to find out about our secret if we continued to be careless of our words.I leaned back and grimaced, thinking of how we were going to get out of this. She was looking at us and I knew that she was waiting for an answer.I looked at my brothers to come up with something quick as my brain was blank and dad seemed ruffled by the question his wife had a

    QuinnFinally, a decision was made and it was agreed that the competition between me and Tyrex would start soon. As based on tradition, it was meant to happen at the house of the former alpha.It was while we were seated out there that Albus put a call through to Tyrex's father to come to our house with his son to prepare for the pre-initiation ceremony.We could hear everything that Albus said and all what Tyrex's dad also on phone. It was what he already asked me immediately he was done with breaking dad's arms. The elders wanted to know how closer we were to being the next leader of the pack."How soon can you get here, Tyrien?" Albus asked Tyrex's dad."We will be there in the next two hours.""Good. We will all be expecting you. Albert had already told his staff to be expecting you and prepare rooms for you.""We are moving soon. We have actually been expecting your call as Tyrex has been telling me of how his body has been changing recently."Albus sighed and exchanged a look wi

    QuinnIt was here. Finally. The day of the fight. The day I was either going to be crowned as an alpha or scorned as a loser. I was determined to not go down though. I was going to fight with my nails and my teeth till I win.I looked around the cave, looking for one particular person but I didn't see her. I could my dad, my brothers, the elders, Tyrex and his father but Mia wasn't there. Of course, she wouldn't be there. She wouldn't be invited yet to a ceremony as grand as this, even if she had been introduced as our mate and accepted by the pack which we hadn't done yet. She wasn't an elder and neither was she family. Yet.The pack had strict and ancient rules that guided our ceremonies and conducts. Mia wasn't a natural wolf and biological sister and so wouldn't be considered as family member of anyone of us. She wasn't mated to us yet too so she had no reason to be here.I sighed as I moved my eyes away from searching the crowd and focused on what was needed here. She wasn't here

    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.
