Dimitri and Nikolai: Rejecting Fate Part 1: Chapter 35
Nikolai The beeping of the monitors drowns Caterina’s voice out as she comforts me, but I only have eyes for my mate lying lifeless on that hospital bed. It’s odd that I find myself in a room where humans come to heal when they’re injured. But we’re werewolves; we’re supposed to recover in record time… but Nova doesn’t have her wolf yet, so she’s still devastatingly human. Caterina mentions something about Nova’s wolf being silent as well, then takes my silence as a hint and leaves the room. I slowly walk over to where she lay and sit down on the stool next to the bed, my heart not yet registering that this is the woman I love. I take her hand in mine and hold it against my cheek, and something occurs to me then. There’s no light in this body, no giggles or smart ass answers to my questions, no warmth in her skin. She simply /is/ - and it kills me. “Nova,” I breathe out her name as I hold her hand in mine and draw it to my forehead, wishing she would answer me with ‘Nickybabe.’ But

Nova No one knows what they’re talking about when they say, ‘it feels like I’ve been hit by a truck’, because it doesn’t simply feel like a fucking hangover. I feel like I died and was brought back alive in tiny pieces, glued back together, then tied up with a bow. Something else to add to my list: being hit by a truck. I’ve been discharged, and Nikolai is currently wheeling me out of the hospital with Kai and Konstantin behind us. From what they’ve told me, the accident was meant to be a hit on Arya, and they mistook me for her. Great, if she finds out, she’ll feel even more guilty and refuse to be my friend. Speaking of which, I need to tell Dimitri about her fear of being at home; perhaps he can figure out the reason behind it. “Where are we going?” I ask when Nikolai puts me in the backseat of Kai’s SUV. “The penthouse, but I’ll be taking a few days off to watch over you, little Rogue,” he says with a smirk, then a sly wink. I can’t help but smile at this, knowing that he’l

NikolaiAfter leaving Nova’s room, I head straight downstairs to grab a beer and drown out my thoughts with some gaming. It worked for a few hours, and then my thoughts drifted back to Nova.I wanted to be there for her, wanted her to know that she could count on me through this, that I won’t fuck up again. But she wanted to be left alone; she always wanted to be left alone lately. Does that mean I’m too much? Does she need space from me?Fuck, have I become a needy boyfriend?/“Are you at the penthouse? Kon, Dimitri and I have a few things to discuss after meeting with Alder,”/ Kai’s voice cuts through my thoughts./“I am,”/ is all I answer before switching off the console and TV, then moving to the foyer to wait for my brothers. It can’t be good news, given the fact that all three of them will be here, but I guess I’ll see.Twenty minutes later, they file into my penthouse, all looking grim; not only that but there’s dried blood on Kai’s hands and forearms.“What the fuck happened?”

NovaIt’s been about a week since the accident, and Nikolai has been acting strangely the entire time. It started the night he met his brothers here at the penthouse and has gradually gotten worse. He tries to act like nothing is wrong, but I have a bad feeling about this.My legs have healed, but I’m using a crutch for the time being. Nikolai enjoyed carrying me around everywhere, but I couldn’t do it for long. I hate feeling helpless, even if he was the one helping me.I’m sitting at the breakfast nook right now, watching Nikolai whip up an omelette breakfast. He thinks I can’t sense the anxiety in his scent, thinks he’s masking it well, but since I am his mate, I can see right through him. Not only that, he barely slept a wink last night, I could hear him pacing his room.“Is everything okay, Nickybabe?” I ask, watching how he stiffens up at my words. He turns to face me with that delicious smile on his face.“Of course, why wouldn’t it be?” he asks, then brings my plate over. I gr

Nova After picking up Arya, we set off for Alpha Kai’s cabin a few miles out. Arya was just as quiet as I was, but Luna Caterina and Lilith tried their best to make us feel comfortable. What can I say? Arya and I just aren’t people’s…people. About an hour later, we arrived at the cabin. But something about it confused me…didn’t Nikolai say that it takes a few hours to travel to the cabin? Did he lie to me again? I try to put it out of my head. “Okay, ladies; let’s get this weekend started!” Lilith exclaims when we walk. She seems to be the only one excited about this; even Luna Caterina is eerily quiet today. Of course, the cabin is beautiful, with just enough rustic style to make you believe you’re actually out in the wild. Our rooms weren’t huge, thank Goddess, but quaint and comfortable. I can definitely see myself coming here again sometime soon. I hear a knock at my bedroom door while unpacking, and Arya walks in with a small smile on her face. “Settling in?” I ask, packi

NovaWe all woke up with hangovers the following day. Lilith suggested we go down to the hot spa baths next to the lake just to unwind. Well, I won’t say no to that; Goddess knows I need to unwind right now.Last night Arya snuck into my room and spoke with me a bit. Apparently, there were some hectic things going down with her family business, and she needed to offload before she started going crazy. I was more than happy to be a shoulder for her to lean on, but I had no idea what her world was like.After getting my things ready for the day, I headed out to meet the rest of the women in the foyer. I had a feeling that I was the last one there, so I tried to hurry up, but as I rounded the corner, I could hear Lilith and Luna Caterina in a heated discussion.“...what do you mean?” Lilith’s muffled voice came.“Kai says it’s been deathly quiet - no sign of them at all. He’s starting to get worried, and Nikolai is getting antsy.” This was Luna speaking… and hearing Nikolai’s name in her

Nova Everything happens way too quickly after I see him. As I’m running to Arya to try and stop her, the man who looks like Alpha Kai runs towards her at lightning speed and grabs her by the throat. He has a malicious grin on his face as his irises split into two orbs, and my heart drops right into my feet when I realise that this man is a fucking Lycan. What is happening? Why does this man look like Alpha Kai when it obviously isn’t him?! His scent doesn’t match Alpha Kai at all, and there’s a coldness extending from him that chills me to my very bones. “Who…who are you…” I squeak, feeling close to nearly fainting at his intimidating scent, but he merely grins at my terror, or rather he’s reveling in it. “Who are you?!” He continues to carry Arya in the air by her throat and throws her to the side, but out of the corner of my eye, I can see Lilith behind her breaking her fall. “Why are you here?” I hear Luna Caterina’s stern voice behind me, and I turn to look at her. She walks i

NikolaiNova walks away from me with no hesitation or hurry in her step. She’s not expecting me to run after her, but I want to; I want to fight for this relationship, but I feel like the only thing I do and say are the wrong things.I breathe out a sigh and turn around, ready to face whatever my brother has to say to us.“...What the fuck is that supposed to mean, Kai? How is this supposed to work?” I catch the remnants of Konstantin’s rant and see him pacing the floor. Whatever Kai just told him has him highly pissed off. I think we’re all pissed off at Kai in some way.“What’s going on?” I ask, walking up to them. Konstantin’s eyes are silver, Dimitri has his arms crossed, looking despondent, and Kai is leaning over the counter looking at us all. The women are standing off to the side and are wearing equally shell-shocked expressions. “Did someone die?”Konstantin scoffs. “Perfect choice of words, little brother,” he says.“There’s no need to be fucking dramatic, Konstantin-”“Oh,

Dimitri and Nikolai: Rejecting Fate Kai and Caterina Epilogue
Kai Nearly fourteen years of the Convergence, with every year being as successful as the previous one. Our packs have lived in harmony for this long, with no wars or antagonising from smaller packs; everything was peaceful. However, as I look down at the RSVP in my hand, I am not sure if it is anger or fear coursing through my veins. After fourteen years of replying NO, the European Five have finally decided to join the Convergence. I have been sending invitations out of courtesy and expected a negative response, but the fact that all of them responded yes has a cold sweat running down my back. I hope it is simply nerves and that, once again, my feelings aren’t right. “What are you thinking of so intently?” The voice of Caterina cuts through the haze of my thoughts. I look up from my desk. I am almost sure that the older she gets, the more beautiful she becomes, and I find myself falling for her all over again on a daily basis. I smile as she walks over to me, wearing a tiny blac
Dimitri and Nikolai: Rejecting Fate Konstantin and Lilith Epilogue
Konstantin I look up at the mansion I used to call home and sigh. After another two years, I have returned empty-handed and with no news. Kaia is still missing, with no word and no sound even in Europe. I know I should simply let it go, that perhaps the fucking witch killed my only daughter the minute she took her, but I cannot give up hope. Not when I promised to bring her back home. She has turned eighteen now, the same age as Kai’s eldest, and I’m not sure what to think. Years spent without her parents and in the grip of a witch who has undoubtedly twisted her mind. I don’t know what to expect anymore; in fact, I don’t know what more to do. The front door opens, and the only one who hasn’t given up on me rushes out to meet me. Her eyes glisten with unshed tears, and I hear her sobbing against my chest. “No more, Kon, please…we need to stop this,” she says, then peers up at me with a heartbroken expression. “You need to come home now.” I shake my head. “I still didn’t find her-”
Dimitri and Nikolai: Rejecting Fate Nikolai and Nova Epilogue
NikolaiI knew as soon as I set my eyes on Nova that she would change the entire trajectory of my life - and I wasn’t wrong. Not only has she changed my life for the better, but she’s added more colour to it. And I don’t mean the whirlwind that is my son, Sage.Every aspect of our lives changed drastically when we discovered that Nova’s womb had been healed and that she was pregnant with our firstborn. Her pregnancy was not an easy one, so after Sage’s birth, we decided to keep it to one child only.Yet as I watch her sleep with one hand on her swollen belly, I wonder where the hell that decision went.“Time to wake up, little Rogue,” I try to coax her awake, but she swats my hand away. “Nooo…” she complains, covering her head with a pillow. “I barely slept last night.”“Bullshit, you went to bed at seven and kept me awake by imitating a chainsaw all damn night. The one who really deserves sleep is me!” I say, ripping the pillow from her face and watching as her face reddens.“That’
Dimitri and Nikolai: Rejecting Fate Dimitri and Arya Short Epilogue - 5 Years Later
DimitriI watch the sun set over Paris and sigh, knowing this would be our final night here. Arya’s paintings and art have become world-renowned, and in that, we haven’t been able to focus much on ourselves. The last few years have been a whirlwind, so much so that we haven’t been able to focus on ourselves or starting a family together. Sure, everyone back home understands, and so do I, but I can’t help but feel a sliver of disappointment at where our lives have led us.I want a family with my mate; I want us to settle down and get our lives together. However, I can’t force this on Arya. But I know that I will need to speak with her about this soon. Even as my wolf knots her each time we make love, nothing has come of it. Is it my fault? Is my body too weak?A head leans against my back. “Hey, Mitya,” came the voice of my angel, alluring as usual. I turn around to face her, about to offer her a fake smile, when I see the tears in her eyes and her bottom lip trembling. “Arya, what-”
Dimitri and Nikolai: Rejecting Fate EPILOGUE - THE CONVERGENCE OF THE FIVE
AryaWe couldn’t do much after Kai’s revelation last night. So now we’re all standing in the Hall of the Five, welcoming guests as if nothing is wrong. So far, I’ve met Alpha Bastien and his two mates, his sister, the beautiful Alpha Azura, Alpha Ryker and his Beta Ruin and Lilith’s half-brother, Alpha Fenriz, unfortunately without his Luna Marina.They all seemed lovely, but Caterina has asked me to not let my guard down, especially after what Kai told us yesterday. Ah, I suppose I should start calling him Alpha Kai from now on, hey?I look around the beautifully decorated hall and smile, knowing the other ladies’ hard work has paid off wonderfully. With its glass ceiling so the moonlight may shine through, the red and black drapes and candles adding to the colour scheme, Autumn flower arrangements and the marble floor with the Five’s symbol delicately embedded in gold.“Everything okay on this side?” Dimitri asks as he walks toward me. He’s looking quite dashing in a custom-made Tom

Arya/“Hey, Arya, are you up yet?”//“Come on, please tell us you’re awake already! It’s noon!”/My eyes flutter open to the voices booming in my head, and I groan, trying to drown them out with a pillow to my head.“Argh, go away!” I exclaim while holding the pillow to my face. “I wanna sleep! Leave me alone!”I hear Dimitri chuckling next to me, and then he pulls the pillow from my head while I can do nothing but protest. “I think the women want your attention, Princess,” he says, shaking his head.“But I’m exhausteeeed!” I pout, folding my arms. “How can they expect me to be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed after spending my wedding night with a Volkov?”He laughs again, then gets up and straddles me with a mischievous look in his eyes. I can’t help but peek up at him and run my hands down his perfectly chiselled body.“Hmm,” I say appreciatively, and he rolls his eyes.“Get your ass out of bed, Princess; we have a long day ahead of us,” He says, then plants a kiss on my forehead and

Arya They say a Volkov mating ceremony always ends in at least one death, but as I fall down on Dimitri’s chest after the fifth round, the only death that can be reported is mine. This man is insatiable, truly and wouldn’t let up after he Claimed me with his bite. The bite itself wasn’t painful at all; it felt like a missing piece of my soul being put back. After that, everything felt natural and beautiful, even our animalistic sounds that echoed all around us. The ceremony was beautiful, too; I don’t think I ever cried as much as I did when Caterina read the vows and her prayers. Apparently, ours was her very first ceremony, and it left her in tears as well. And even though I’m no longer human, Dimitri still had a tungsten ring with a black gemstone made for me. Everything is just completely perfect. “What are you thinking about so intently?” Dimitri’s voice cuts through my thoughts, and I look up at him. “Just how perfect everything has been for the last three days,” I say, bre
Dimitri and Nikolai: Rejecting Fate Part 2: Chapter 33
AryaMy heart is full and bursting right now: everyone has accepted me as part of the pack! I must admit that it’s still odd to think of myself as a werewolf or shifter of any kind. I, a once arrogant and proud Mafia princess, accepted into a great family such as this.I must be dreaming.Not only that, but Caterina removed the scars from my face! I nearly passed out from the shock when I saw my reflection! She didn’t even need to do it, since I’ve come to terms with my scars, but seeing my old face made me realise how much I have missed it!Call me vain, but I missed my own beauty. But this time around, I know that I will not be as arrogant as I used to be since every woman standing next to me is exceptionally beautiful. Although right now, I am feeling extremely self-conscious standing naked in front of them as they try to give me advice.“Okay, Arya, I want you to close your eyes and look at your wolf; make eye contact and do not blink. She will know what to do from there,”“Oh, d
Dimitri and Nikolai: Rejecting Fate Part 2: Chapter 32
Dimitri It’s a full moon in two days, and Arya has just woken up after being in transition for five days. During her slumber, everyone took turns keeping her company while I was out. Nova was incredibly overprotective of her, something that I loved and yet became extremely annoyed by. Nikolai and I agreed that Nova would be the best person to train Arya when it came to shifting since Nova’s wolf is newly acquired as well. I had forgotten the feelings of my first shift, so my advice wouldn’t match up to what Arya would feel. Now, as I watch her finishing off her sandwich, I can feel nothing but anxiety coming from her. “Hey, are you okay?” I ask, placing my hand over hers, which seems to be trembling. “What’s wrong?” She peers up at me and gives me a tight smile. “I haven’t seen everyone since the attack at the cabin. I remember being confused, and I think I said something hurtful, so I don’t know how to face them. Do they hate me?” She says, then places both her hands on her lap a
