Martha holds my two arms while looking into my eyes as she bombards me with questions "When did you find your mate within the little hours I left you to yourself? Who is the person? How did it happen? Do you like him? Are you in love with him already..." I laugh as I watch her go on and on cheerily. "One question at a time Martha, please... Okay, here is the thing, I couldn't smell him as my mate yet. I didn't know why before until he told me it was because I'm yet to be eighteen. Oh, Martha! The attraction between us was undeniable! It was exactly like how you described it to be if not more... I think I'm in love, Martha!" I reply and she laughs,"Oh, Ash..." She says and pulls me in for another hug"I am so happy for you girl. So happy!" She says again when she released me from the hug. "So how did you both meet? Who is he? Is he a member of the Night Howlers pack?" "We met after you left. I was just done cleaning the master bedroom when he walked into the room." Her eyes grew r
Miranda's POVI've been crushing on Ethan since when I was old enough to understand the attraction between a girl and a boy. He always had time to play fun games with Emily, his sister, and me when we were kids, that was until he turned fifteen, got himself a girlfriend, and totally cut contact with me. Even though I still see him around with Emily, he stopped playing with us and never acknowledged me until many years later when he flew back home all the way from England to specially attend my fifteenth birthday party. I also got my first kiss from him on that same day, it doesn't matter to me if it was just a chaste one on the cheek. A kiss is a kissMy feelings for him deepened after my birthday. I texted him one day to let him know how I feel about him and he just replied to me with an okay emoji. Even though he didn't tell me he feels the same way about me, he also didn't discourage me from loving him so I took his emoji response as a confirmation that he feels the same way about
Thor's POV"What next?" I ask Eric as we walk out of my dad's room. It feels as if my brain is shut down and I can no longer think properly. The thought that I almost lost my dad again scares me shitless. I wonder, what if he has another heart attack? Will he be able to survive it or he wouldn't like the doctor had said"You need to rest now. Get some sleep. We still have a couple of hours before the sun comes up. There's the meeting with Alpha Nate and who knows what trouble or mystery the fake news of your dad's death would bring to us?""Yeah, we should go back to the house," I replied absent-mindedly. I'm not really sleepy and would have kept myself busy with work if I was at home but I'm not. Since there's nothing for me to do this early in the morning, I have no other choice than to go to bed as Eric said, knowing I would probably count sheep till the sun comes upWe finally arrive back at the house and immediately I enter the room assigned to me, everything changes. 'It seems
Apart from the fact that my mate was mistreated, I love the Night Howlers pack. From the little, I've seen so far of it. Alpha Nate is a man of good standard and quality taste. I love the way his pack is structured and resources utilized. The Night Howlers pack's standard of living is top-notch considering the fact that it's not even among the first five largest packs in North America.My dad already appointed Alpha Nate as my trusted representative aka seconds, who will act in my stead in all matters concerning the duel. It's the job of the seconds to make all of the arrangements in advance, including where the duel will be held, how long the duel would last, and what conditions will end the duel, like if the duel will be a fight to the death or the fight would go on until the first blood is drawn.According to the duel law, as soon as the duel date is set, Justin and I can no longer communicate with each other until after the duel, no matter what the situation may be. Whatever messa
"What!?" I ask in disbelief. Kinda finding it hard to believe what I just heard Evelyn accuse me of. I look from her to where Alpha Nate is sitting to see he still has an amused expression on his face as if he's watching a comedy show while struggling to keep a straight face on.I also badly want to laugh but this is no laughing matter. For Evelyn to blatantly accuse me of murdering my own father, then she must have something up her sleeve that she wants to use as an ace against me. I wonder what her secret weapon is.Then the Council policeman's voice boomed out like a powerful thunder over me..."Thor!... Son of Viveka Andersen and Knox Quin. You're under arrest for the murder of your father, Knox Quin, The Alpha of Silver Moon pack. You can choose to follow me in peace or force my hand into taking you down by all means possible!"My brows shot up in amusement. I'm a big man with a huge beast myself. Six feet, five inches tall of sinewy muscles. As big as I am, I still find the Cou
"Excuse me," Eric tells the witch in confusion. "What do you mean by where have I been all these years? Have we met before?""We have..." She replies to him with an endearing smile on her face"Then how come I don't remember?""It's a very, very long time ago. You won't now but you will soon at the right time." She says and turns away from him to Alpha Nate and his Beta"Alpha... Beta" She bows her head slightly toward them. "I'll just take this big boy off your hands," she touch the council police, and both of them vanished. Disappeared into thin air the way she appeared out of it."Wow, sophisticated!" I mutter. I'm impressed. We have witches and wizards back in Denmark but I've never seen one like this witch who can appear and disappear at will without chanting some kind of incantation.I look over at Eric and he still looks baffled 'Hey, you good?' I say through our mind link and he looks towards me, his brows furrows in concentration'Yeah– I don't know– I mean, it kinda feels
"Goddess Sif?" The confused look in her eyes, when she asked about that name made me realize she had no clue that was her wolf's name. I'm flabbergasted. Like how could she not know the name of her own wolf!? Even though a shifter's wolf and human have different bodies and names, we are the same. Like two in one entity. Our wolves live in us and vice versa. We depend on each other to survive, so how can she be that clueless about something that's part of her? Who are the shifters that raised her to be that ignorant of her life... Ignorant of me? The bond between my mate and myself goes deeper than the ordinary mate bond. According to the seer, we were destined to rule and do great things together. I've known everything about her since I turned eighteen. I was told her parents would get her informed about me but unfortunately, she was raised by another who now I suspect has hidden agendaI need to speak with her adoptive parents. I need to find out how they come about raising her and
"I see she already told you about me despite telling her not to tell anyone. I told her to keep the news to herself till tomorrow when she will turn eighteen!" I say and Eric's voice immediately invades my mind, chastising me...'Thank you for helping me take care of my mate would have been the perfect thing to say in this sort of situation Thor, common!'I know Eric is right but I don't see anything wrong in what I said. I'm just having a conversation with her, where's the sin in that? That doesn't mean I wouldn't say thank you to her later. I know the right thing to"Tell me about you?" She says with a snigger. She didn't have to call me delusional, it's clearly written on her face. "What could she have told me about you when she didn't even know your name?" She ask wonderingly with amusement 'Is she mocking me?' I thought to myself in annoyance. I am an Alpha, no one is allowed to speak to me with such an attitude! Not even if she's old and my mother-in-law. Even Eric, who has
