I stood watching Seren walk away. Her long dark hair swinging as she walked. She was in a hurry to get away from me, that was evident to see. A part of me wanted to go after her, but I stayed, almost fixed to the spot, as she strode further away. While listening to my wolf snarling angrily at me. My gut twisting, along with my heart. I knew the pain she was in. I knew the struggle of losing your father…

FLASHBACK – 8 years ago.

I played happily with Cole. Climbing the large tree in the garden of their home. The sun was shining and we loved to make the most of the sunshine. Any opportunity to be outside. Climbing trees was one of our favorite things to do, and the one sitting in the Bradshaw's garden was one of the many trees we had fallen from countless times before. The slightly smaller one alongside it was the tree where the treehouse sat. I believed we had fallen from that a few times too. We made a habit of falling. Always so clumsy. Too busy having fun...

    Today had been a day I had been dreading. But as sure as the sun was to rise, it had arrived. A day that filled me with pain. A day that left me contemplating so much. Reliving memories. My eyes filled with tears. Losing someone you love is the worst imagineable loss, but when that someone is someone you depend upon… turn to… look up to… he had been my everything. Is that not what a Dad was meant to be to his little girl? I had never expected to lose him whilst I was so young. Though, I don’t suppose many people expect to lose the ones they love… and, no matter how hard I tried, I did not know how to make that loss any easier.Three years this year since he had left us. Three years since I had heard his voice. Three years since he had lovingly wrapped his arms around my Mum's waist as she made him his morning coffee, making her giggle, despite their many years together as mates. 1095 days feeling lost without my Dad by my side to turn to for

    That smug look lingered across Lachlan's dark features as his smirk widened. His dark eyes never leaving me for a second as he watched me move along the corridor. “Alright, Ren.” He nodded at me, before raising his coffee mug to me.Without further acknowledgement of him, I quickly continued striding along the corridor, before my anger well and truly bubbled out of control. I did not know what he was doing here, and I did not need him here. Marching into the kitchen to find my brother tossing one of the pancakes as I did, he looked up at me with a welcoming smile. The lightness in his face only to be brought down by me as I snapped. “What is he doing here?”Cole’s eyes rolled upward, like he was sick of my words. It was something I had asked him multiple times before. I hated the sight of Lachlan making himself comfortable within our family home, especially when he had his arrogant head on. Unfortunately, as a close family friend, he made

    I was doing all I could to avoid my fated mate. The sight of her infuriated me. The sound of her voice made me angry. I could not be near her without fury bubbling through my veins; and that was a dangerous situation to be in. Not to mention difficult, because, Tyr had grown angry with me for my outburst at Seren, and how could I blame him? The fear within her eyes was one of terror. No matter the hate or resentment I may feel for that girl, she should not fear me. No woman should fear me.I think of my mother, and the very thought of her fearing a man, and the thought infuriates me. No woman should be made to feel like that. So, I decided, that because being around Seren was evidently causing me to lose my temper, I should do all I could to avoid her. Stay away from her, and any place she was likely to be. I needed to find another focus.So, I went all in to the Beta training. This was going to be something I needed to do anyway. Soon enough I was to become the Beta of this fine pack

    Colton and I walked into the busy club, having used our fake ID in order to get in. The music was pounding, and both dancefloors were already filling up. We walked side by side making our way to one of the many bars situated within the club, more than read to start our night the right way. My friend gave me a sly smile as a beautiful women gave him the eye, and a stunning smile, as we made our way through the throngs of people. The look of excitement upon his face was a picture! Though she was quite the looker... maybe tonight could be a good night.“We are going to have fun, right?” Colton questioned as we reached the bar, having to queue for a moment, and I smiled. The excitement in his tone matched the excitment upon his face from moments ago. The smile from the passing beauty had clearly been quite the pick-me-up for my friend, and had certainly put a smile upon his face.“I sure hope so.” I looked around. The place was filled with guys our

    We had made our way to the dancefloor. The perfect opportunity for me to have my hands upon her curves... and she was most certainly not complaining. That beautiful smile was directed at me once again as her body inched closer to mine, the curve of her hips fitting perfectly against me, as she swayed her body in time to the music. Damn, could this girl move! She edged even closer, before she shimmied her way down my body, before moving back up again; driving me wild as she did.“Mmmm, you are so sexy…” I murmured into her ear.She flicked her long, curly black hair back as she looked up at me through her long dark lashes. Tracing a line on my torso once again with her fingertips. “Oh, is that right?” her fingers stopped at the waistband of my jeans.I swallowed heavily, she only had to allow her eyes to drift a little lower and she would see how much I was wanting this. Wanting her. I hooked my finger under her chin, taking control, and pulled her gaze to meet mine, before she saw wh

    I had chosen not to mention anything about Lachlan’s outburst to Cole. He was his best friend, after all. And I did not know that he would believe me. He had a habit of believing his friends over me. Brother or not, he seemed to take his friends’ words over his own sister's. So, when Cole asked me how it had gone with Lachlan I just smiled and told him everything went fine. My brother had clearly set out to help me when arranging that chat between Lachlan and I, so it was better for him to believe it had helped; when it truth it had done anything but...Truth be told, Lachlan's words had hurt me. I could not believe he thought that way of me, and it made me question so many things about myself. I checked in with my brother that day, and my Mum. Hating how small Lachlan had made me feel when he implied I had made the day we mourned the loss of my Dad all about me. That day was one we all found hard, and I needed to know that my family were okay. I needed them to know I was there for th

    Gripping Seren’s butt, and watching her whole body freeze, unsure what to do, made me stop for a moment… she didn’t know if she liked it… I am almost sure of it… there was a moment there she was unsure, I am certain… and the mixture of emotions rushing through me confused me. I released her body, and stepped away quickly. I hated the matebond we shared. It made things so much harder. It confused things. And that was without it being present on Seren's side yet...Thankfully, Marcus hadn’t seen any of the confusion, nor the gripping of her ass, so when she dashed away, making her excuse about having things to do, I could laugh, and make fun of her once again. “Making your excuses again, Ren? No shame in admitting you have no life, you know?"But, Seren did not even look back, she continued to rush across the path of pack, her long black hair twisted up into a neat bun today, and going off the bag swin

    I had finally coaxed Tyr out for a run along with my friends. He was becoming tiresome to live with. A wolf that I did not get along with was not the pairing I had envisioned when I had imagined meeting my wolf. I had imagined a wolf I could connect with. One who would become my support. Instead, I was given a wolf who could not be further from being supportive if he tried. He spent most of his time sulking in the nether regions of my mind blocking me out. Ignoring me, like a petulant teenager might…“So, how has Beta training been going?” Cole asked as we strode away from the treeline, walking back down toward the main area of pack. I smiled in his direction. This was my weekend away from my training, and I was not ashamed to say I was smashing it. All the preparation had put me in good stead. Thankfully my wolf had been present as and when needed throughout the training to allow me to do all that was expected of me; and I was more than confident I should

    Rippling with a new surge of confidence, I wandered from the bed to the bathroom where Lachlan had headed to clean up. Everything we had shared had been so much more than I had expected. Lachlan had been so much more. He had been different. He made me feel wanted. Needed. I liked it. I wanted more.‘That is what a mate does.’ Maia urged me. I was unsure the confidence I felt as I walked across the room, still naked was from the way Lachlan had made me feel, or the boost of confidence provided by my wolf. Either way, I liked feeling this way. If this was what being with Lachlan was like, then I wanted it more often. It was good for me. He had to see that, right?I could hear the water running, and the door was slightly ajar, so I snuck into the bathroom, Lachlan, was standing in front of the mirror, his once naked body now half wrapped in a towel slung heavy on his hips. He looked good, though I think, having seen him naked, I preferred him

    Seren’s kisses were turning out to be more than I could ever have expected. They were turning my body into one raging desire. This matebond had a lot to answer for. I don’t think I had ever looked at her this way before… had I? I don’t know. But, I knew that in this moment, and likely ever again, I was looking no where else. My wolf had been right, the affect she was having upon me was like nothing else I had experienced before.With every delicate touch of her fingers along my skin my body shivered with sheer pleasure… the need for her coursing through me. I had unhooked the delicate lace bra she was wearing, uncovering her entire body to me. Allowing me to see all of her. And she was, in short, perfect. I could see the nerves within her eyes as I took within her body, so I made an appreciative moan to let her know how much I liked what I saw. Seren had nothing to be embaressed of, yet she tried to cover herself with her hands, so I moved her

    My whole body shuddered under Lachlan’s touch. My core trembling from the affect of the orgasm he had created. His eyes held a deeper, darker glint to them as he studied my face now. “Did that feel good?” he murmured against my cheek, and I nodded, too breathless to answer. Still in complete shock at what we had just done. I had returned to his house because it was easier... and suddenly we were doing this? Yet, as wrong as it felt, I hadn't wanted to stop... it felt right too...Lachlan released a low throaty chuckle, as he allowed his fingers to tease slowly against my folds once again, my body melting under his touch, my entire skin flushed with heat, a stark contrast to the cold surface of the kitchen worktop Lachlan currently had me pressed up against.“You want more?” he questioned, and inexplicably I found myself nodding in agreement. Again, I knew this wrong. Something both of us may live to regret, but I also knew I did not want i

    Initially I had wanted an answer. That had been all. An answer to when Seren had felt that way about me, and what had changed. The venom in her voice had bothered me. I knew I had treated her badly over the years, and continued to do so. In my mind, having every reason to do so. But, I wanted to know her reasoning for these feelings.But, the scent of her arousal had hit my senses, and nothing else mattered in that moment. My wolf and I could focus on nothing else. That scent was so overwhelming. I was instantly aroused. It had been some time now since I had been with a woman… and this was the scent of my own fated mate's arousal… arousal because of me. I could not simply walk away. I wanted her it seemed. And logic dissapeared in the moment, desire taking over.All I could see was Seren. The curves of her perfect body... and that scent... that scent was taking over my mind... I loved seeing the shock upon her face as I parted her thighs

  • Fated but Hated   Chapter 59 - Seren

    I walked into the kitchen, a heaviness in my gut at the realization of what I had just admitted to. I had no clue if Lachlan had known of my silly crush on him earlier in my teens. I had always tried hard to hide it. Lachlan was confident, and cocky as a teen, and I knew he would humiliate me had he known. Not to mention my brother would have been nothing but ashamed of me had he learned of it... But, just now, those words had slipped out without thinking, likely due to my tiredness. And, regardless of any potential backlash, I did not plan to stand and discuss it now, I knew that much. The past was always better staying in the past.I could tell my words had captured Lachlan's attention because the silence was deathly. If I could have had the earth open up and swallow me whole I gladly would have right then. Anything to escape this awkwardness... But, instead, I decided to try to change the subject. “You got any soda?” I questioned, breaking the

    Well, the vulnerable Seren did not last long at all, I have to say. She was back to sniping at me before we had even stepped foot inside of my house! Tyr was on at me about taking care of her, and as we walked, I could see such pain within her eyes, I was not able to be harsh with her. I knew my wolf was right. She had been through enough tonight, and needed somebody to be there for her. So, knowing her own mother was likely in no fit state to care for her tonight, and knowing her brother was currently ensconced in the arms of a random she-wolf right now, I thought the decent thing to do was to offer to be there for her and allow her to crash at mine.But, having her sniping at me that way again, I was truly beginning to doubt if it was the right thing or not. Yet, we were already arriving at the house. Not a time to turn Seren away now. I would just have to tolerate her. It wasn't like I wasn't an expert in that already. I walked into the house, and turned to look back at he

    I walked alongside Lachlan in almost a trance. The dealthly silence that sat between us beyond uncomfortable. Maia whimpered heavily at the way our mate had all but pushed us away, but I cannot say I was surprised at how he had reacted. The appearance of that wolf out on his midnight run was likely a relief for Lachlan. It had saved him from a moment of madness. How Lachlan had been acting had been so out of character it had taken me by surprise. It had felt so nice, and I guess, you could say, I had been swept away by the moment. But, I knew the second Lachlan reacted how he did he had regretted his actions...‘Do not say that!’ Maia whimpered again. ‘Did you not see the way he looked at us? He wanted us…’I sighed. I was not about to allow my wolf to try to convince me of things that simply were not there. Of course she was going to hope for our fated mate to want us. That was what every wolf would want. It was natura

  • Fated but Hated   Chapter 56 - Lachlan

    I could feel Seren all but trembling within my arms, but I knew that effect was not down to me. That warrior she had near surrendered herself to had broken her. Had I not arrived when I did he could have taken everything from her. My whole body was trembling too, and it was not in fear like Seren’s. The trembling coursing through my body was in rage. Yet as Seren’s big brown eyes looked up at me, I could feel no anger toward her.Yes, she had been foolish. But, I hated hearing her call herself stupid. This was more a man trying to take advantage of a naive she-wolf. That warrior had known exactly what he was doing, and that infuriated me.“You need to be more careful, Ren.” I mumbled, seeming unable to look away from those eyes of hers. They were looking at me with such need right now. “We don’t want you getting hurt.” I told her. Regardless of any resentment I may feel toward her, the thought of Seren getting hurt really did t

    My whole body shook. Total shock had taken over me at what had just happened. That was not the guy I had been enjoying spending time with. Alejandro had always been so charming. He had spent quite some time trying to convince me to even spend time with him... never for a moment had he come across in a negative way. Surely tonight had to be the affect of the drink, right?My body shuddered at the thought of what he had just done... or more accurately what he so nearly had done. Clearly, nobody is who you truly think they are. Anyone is capable of changing to gain what they want, I realized with a sinking heart. I did not want to see him again. Though, for the time being at least, that was not going to be an issue. Alejandro had wasted no time in running when Lachlan had given that opportunity. He would have been a fool not to, listening to the anger in Lachlan's voice. Warrior or not, Alejandro would be no competition for Lachlan. I just hoped when the morning came, they dealt with him
