Alpha Hunter’s POV

Loraine’s excitement was infectious. She flitted around the room, holding up fabric samples, chatting about color schemes, and debating which flowers would look best for the ball’s decorations. Her energy filled the air like a warm breeze, and I found myself smiling despite my usual stoic demeanor.

She was glowing, and I couldn’t take my eyes off her. Every laugh, every sparkle in her eyes, made my chest tighten in a way that both thrilled and terrified me. I didn’t know what I had done to deserve someone like her, but I’d spend my life making sure she never regretted choosing me.

“Hunter,” she called, snapping me out of my thoughts. “What do you think? White lilies or red roses?”

I tilted my head, pretending to scrutinize the options. “I think you could put weeds in there, and the place would still look amazing.”

She laughed, rolling her eyes. “You’re no help.”

“Not my area of expertise,” I admitted with a grin. “But whatever you pick will be perfect.”

    Alpha Hunter’s POV Loraine leaned back against the couch, her eyes flitting from one of us to the other. We were all gathered in the living room after dinner—Killian, Kris, Preston, and me—going over some minor updates about the pack. But something was off. Even Loraine could tell. “You know,” she said, crossing her arms and narrowing her eyes, “you’ve all been really tense lately. Is there something you’re not telling me?” Everyone paused for a second, not knowing what to say at first Killian was the first to respond, shrugging as he leaned back in his chair. “It’s just work. You know how it gets. We’ve got a lot on our plates right now.” Loraine tilted her head, clearly not buying it. “You’ve dealt with work stress before, Killian. This feels different. It’s like there’s this constant tension in the air. Care to explain that?’ “It’s nothing,” Kris chimed in, trying to downplay it. “Killian’s right. It’s just pack stuff.” I stayed quiet, not wanting to add fuel to the fire. M

    Loraine’s POV The morning sun filtered through the windows as I slipped on a pair of sandals, humming to myself. Everything had been going so smoothly lately. The boys had finally loosened up, Mabel was settling in without any drama, and I felt like I could finally breathe. It was like the calm before a grand celebration, and I couldn’t wait for the upcoming ball. Mabel’s voice cut through my thoughts. “Loraine!” she called from the kitchen. “What do you think about going shoe shopping today? We still need the perfect pair for your ball gown.” I turned to find her leaning casually against the doorframe, her expression warm but with a spark of excitement in her eyes. “That’s a great idea!” I said, practically bouncing on my feet. “I’ve been dying to find something stunning to match my dress. Oh, we’ll have so much fun!” She smiled and waved me off. “You go on ahead. I just need to grab something real quick, and I’ll catch up with you.” I hesitated for a moment. “You sure? I don

    Loraine’s POV The slam of the front door echoed like a thunderclap through the house. My heart jumped, and I instinctively flinched. A second later, Killian stormed into the living room, his expression a mask of fury. His shoulders were tense, his jaw set in a way that made it clear this wasn’t going to be a simple argument. My stomach churned. “You’ve got to be kidding me, Loraine!” Killian’s voice was sharp enough to cut glass. I blinked, completely taken aback. “What are you talking about?” “What am I talking about?” he spat, his voice rising. “You think I didn’t see it? Flirting with him? Gordon? After everything he’s done to you, to us, to your family?” The accusation felt like a slap. “Wait a second,” I said, holding up my hands. “Flirting? Are you serious right now? I wasn’t flirting with him!” “Don’t play innocent with me!” Killian growled, stepping closer. “He acted like you two had something going on, and that note—don’t even try to deny it. It’s your handwriting, Lo

    Loraine’s POV Morning came too quickly, the pale sunlight filtering through the curtains and pulling me from a restless sleep. I stretched, groaning softly, and rolled over in bed. The spot next to me was cold and empty. “Mabel?” I called softly, sitting up and glancing around the room. No response. A strange unease settled over me as I got out of bed. It wasn’t like her to leave without saying something. After brushing my hair back and wrapping myself in a robe, I headed downstairs, following the faint sound of laughter drifting from the dining room. When I walked in, I froze. Mabel was sitting at the breakfast table, chatting animatedly with Killian, Kris, Hunter, and Preston. Plates of food were scattered across the table, and everyone looked relaxed, laughing at something Mabel had just said. The camaraderie between them was painfully evident, and I felt like an outsider standing at the doorway. Mabel spotted me first. Her smile faltered briefly before she waved me over. “

    Hunter’s POV I leaned back in my chair, staring blankly at the wall, replaying the events from a few days ago. The memories swirled in my head, sharp and relentless, tugging at me in ways I couldn’t shake off. It had all started with Mabel. She’d called us out of nowhere, panic lacing her voice. “Hunter, you need to get to the mall right now,” she’d said. “Loraine’s there, and she doesn’t have enough warriors with her.” The urgency In her tone had sent a jolt through me. “Why is she at the mall without protection?” I’d demanded, already motioning for Kris, Killian, and Preston to follow me. “I don’t know!” Mabel had snapped. “Just hurry!” We hadn’t wasted a second. The thought of Loraine being vulnerable—alone—was unbearable. When we got to the mall, what we saw made my blood boil. Gordon. Her ex. Begging her to come back to him like some pathetic excuse for a man. I could still see the look on his face, the desperation in his eyes, and the way he reached out to her like he

    Loraine’s POV I stared at my phone for a long moment before finally dialing Chloe’s number. She picked up after the third ring, and thank the goddess, her bright voice immediately lifted my spirits. “Loraine! What’s up?” “Hey,” I said, trying to keep my voice casual. “I was wondering if you and Sasha were free today. I could use some company.” Chloe hesitated for only a second. “Of course! Let me check with Sasha, but I’m pretty sure she’s free. Are you okay, though? You sound a little…off.” I forced a laugh. “I’m fine, really. Just bored. It’s been a while since we all hung out.” “Well, in that case, consider it a date. We’ll be there in an hour!” “Thanks, Chloe. I owe you.” “You owe me coffee,” she teased before hanging up. I exhaled, feeling a small weight lift from my chest. Having my friends around would be a good distraction. Maybe it would help me feel normal again. When Chloe and Sasha arrived, Mabel and I were already in the kitchen preparing snacks. Mabel had insi

  • Fated to Four Brothers    Mabel’s Truth

    Mabel’s POV The room was quiet except for the muffled ticking of the clock on the wall. I sat at my vanity, staring at my reflection. It was a little past 5 am. My hair was neatly curled, my makeup flawless, but my lips twisted into a smirk that betrayed the thoughts dancing in my head. A cruel laugh escaped me, echoing through the empty room. It wasn’t the first time I’d laughed like this, but it was the first time it felt so ahh… satisfying. I leaned back in my chair, folding my arms, as I let my mind wander back to just yesterday. How much effort it had taken for me to fake those tears. Oh, how I’d sniffled and sobbed, trembling just enough to make the boys believe I was truly sorry for all I did in the past. I almost laughed again. They had no idea. Not a single clue. “God, they’re so predictable,” I muttered to myself, shaking my head. “A few crocodile tears, and they’re eating out of the palm of my hand.” But it hadn’t always been that easy. I leaned forward, resting my e

  • Fated to Four Brothers    Loraine’s Confession

    Loraine’s POV The soft hum of the afternoon breeze fluttered through the open windows of the manor, and it carried with it the scents of pine and wildflowers. But the beauty outside felt distant, overshadowed by the weight in my chest. I sat at the table in my room, staring at the neatly folded invitations in front of me I’d hurt them. Each of them. Preston, with his quiet strength and practically unshakeable loyalty. Kris, who always saw the best in me even when I didn’t deserve it. Hunter, my fearless protector with a heart of gold. And Killian, the one who never hesitated to call me out but still stood by me no matter what. They’d all been there for me, loving me in ways I never thought possible. And I… I had kept secrets. I thought I was protecting them, making their lives better, but instead, I pushed them away. No more. I picked up my pen and wrote the last name on the final invitation: Killian. With a sigh, I sealed the envelope and placed it with the others. Tonight w

  • Fated to Four Brothers    Planning the wedding

    Loraine’s POV This is the first time in what felt like years that my life didn't seem like a world-ending storm I had to constantly brace myself against. The past few weeks had been a whirlwind of emotions—betrayal, accusations, and finally, vindication. But now, as I sat in the sprawling living room of our shared home, surrounded by my mates—Preston, Hunter, Kris, and Killian—I felt something I hadn’t in a long time. Peace. Preston lounged on the couch next to me, one arm draped lazily across my shoulders. Hunter was sprawled out on the floor with a pile of papers he claimed were “strategic plans,” though he was doodling more than writing. Kris was in the kitchen, preparing what smelled like something delicious, while Killian sat across from me, polishing his sword like the ever-serious warrior he was. “So,” Hunter said, breaking the comfortable silence, “have we all agreed that the Lycan ball will be our moment to show off the fact that Loraine is officially ours?” I rolled my

  • Fated to Four Brothers    Arresting

    Loraine’s POV I had never felt more powerless in my entire fucking life. The moment the crowd gathered around Mabel’s bleeding, sobbing form, their accusatory glares locked on me, it was over. My protests, my explanations—they were drowned out by her dramatic cries and the murmurs of the onlookers. The bitch had planned this very, very well. I was arrested on the spot. My four mates—Preston, Hunter, Kris, and Killian—could do nothing but watch as I was dragged away. Their eyes were full of desperation, but they knew as well as I did that they couldn’t interfere. The Lycan laws were absolute, and once the Council was involved, even Alphas had to comply. I sat in the dark, cold cell for what felt like an eternity, the walls closing in around me as I replayed the events in my mind. Mabel had outplayed me, and now I was being hauled to Lycan court, the very heart of justice for our kind, where Mabel’s uncle, Lord Arnold, presided. Of-fucking-course! He was a smug, greedy man who th

    Loraine’s POV I had gotten used to the crazy-ass chaos that now surrounded me, but recently, there was a strange stillness in the air. Freaking Firstly, our supposed psychopath, Mabel, the woman who had made my life unbearable, was quiet. Too quiet. It felt like the calm before a storm, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was coming. Her absence from my life—no pranks, no insults, no sudden confrontations—was unsettling. Every time I caught a glimpse of her, I noticed how distant she had become. She no longer tried to provoke me; instead, she seemed to be going about her life, almost as though she had forgotten about our past. I didn’t know what was worse—the fact that she had stopped tormenting me or the fact that I couldn’t figure out her angle. It was late in the evening when my phone buzzed, the screen lighting up with a message from Mabel. My heart skipped a beat as I read her words: “We need to talk. Meet me at the old barn, north of the pack. I have informatio

  • Fated to Four Brothers    She’s Crazy

    Jennifer’s POV I had always prided myself on control. Control over my life, my choices, and, most importantly, my husband, Alpha Gordon. But that control was slipping away. His coldness, his late nights, and his constant absence—it was like watching sand slip through my fingers. I wasn’t fucking stupid. I knew there was someone else, even if he refused to admit it. But tonight, I was going to catch him in the act. It started with a familiar restlessness. Gordon had been distant for weeks now, avoiding my questions, brushing off my attempts to connect. I had taken to watching his every move. When he slipped out of our bedroom late that night, thinking I was asleep, I waited only a few minutes before I followed. The forest was quiet, save for the occasional rustle of leaves. My heart pounded as I followed him, staying far enough behind to avoid detection. I wasn’t sure what I expected to find, but when I saw him meet a woman in a secluded clearing, my chest tightened. For a moment

  • Fated to Four Brothers    Another Threat

    Jennifer’s POV I slammed the bedroom door behind me, the sound echoing through the massive space, and leaned heavily against it. My chest was tight with frustration, my fists clenched so hard that my nails bit into my palms. For weeks, maybe months now, my foolish ass, his alpha Gordon, had been more distant lately—colder than ever. He barely acknowledged me unless it was unavoidable. And at night? I might as well be invisible. He refused to touch me, refused to even sleep in the same bed most nights. I ran a hand through my hair and let out a low growl. The rejection burned, and it was a wound that refused to heal. “I’m his wife, for fucking Moon's sake,” I muttered to myself, pacing the room. “How dare he treat me like this?” I stopped and stared at our bed—the pristine sheets, untouched pillows. My fists clenched again as I remembered the early days of our marriage. He had been mine, all mine. Or at least, I thought he was. But now… I couldn’t finish the thought. The truth wa

  • Fated to Four Brothers    Gordon’s Side

    Alpha Gordon’s POV The office was stifling, the walls closing in as I threw my phone onto the desk with more force than necessary. Mabel’s shrieking accusations still echoed in my ears, her voice like nails on a chalkboard. “You’re fucking pathetic, Gordon! Do you even know how to fucking seduce a woman? She’s supposed to be under your thumb by now, and instead, she’s clinging to those alphas like they’re her lifeline!” The venom in her words made my blood boil. Mabel always had a way of making me feel like the biggest failure on Earth, but this time it cut deeper. Maybe because she wasn’t wrong. Every attempt I’d made to pull Loraine back to me had failed miserably. I leaned forward, running a hand down my face as frustration and regret tangled in my chest. Loraine. My sweet, sweet Loraine Her name was a whisper in my mind, a ghost that haunted me day and night. Once, she had loved me. She had looked at me with those big, hazel eyes as though I was her entire world. She truste

    Loraine’s POV I set my book down and gave her a polite smile. “What do you need, Mabel?” She chuckled lightly, as if I’d made a joke. “Why does it have to be about needing something? Maybe I just wanted to talk.” I raised an eyebrow. Mabel and I weren’t exactly on friendly terms, and this sudden attempt at camaraderie felt as fake as her tone. Still, I gestured for her to sit. “Alright. Talk.” She perched on the edge of the bench, smoothing out her dress. “You know, I’ve been thinking. We’ve had our differences, but we’re both part of this pack now. Maybe it’s time we tried to get along.” I leaned back, crossing my arms. “Get along? After everything you’ve done? Are you fucking kidding me right now? Her smile faltered for a second before she quickly recovered. “I’ve made mistakes; I’ll admit that. But don’t you think we should put the past behind us? For the good of the pack?” I tilted my head, studying her carefully. Her eyes were wide, her expression open, but there was some

    Loraine’s POV When I opened my eyes the next morning, the first thing I saw was Killian sitting by my bedside. His thick arms were crossed, and his head was tilted slightly back as if he’d dozed off. The sunlight streaming through the window highlighted the sharp lines of his face, softening them. I shifted slightly, and his eyes snapped open immediately. “You’re awake,” he said, relief washing over his face as he leaned forward. “I wasn’t dying, you know,” I teased, though my voice was still hoarse from the previous day. “That’s not funny,” he replied, his tone serious despite the small smile tugging at his lips. “We were really worried about you.How in the goddess's name did you fall?” Before I could say anything else, the door opened, and Preston, Kris, and Hunter filed in, each carrying something in their hands. Preston had coffee, Kris had a tray of food, and Hunter was carrying a blanket that looked far too big for the hospital bed. “We thought you’d be hungry,” Kris said

    Mabel’s POV My uncle’s voice echoed in my head, sharp and unforgiving. “You’re not doing enough, Mabel.” It wasn’t just a criticism—it was an accusation, a reminder that failure wasn’t an option. My fists clenched as I paced my room. I had done everything he’d asked. What more could he want? “I’ve been working tirelessly,” I muttered under my breath, trying to push his biting words aside. But his response had been just as infuriating. “If you were doing enough, we wouldn’t still be having this problem, would we?” My uncle and I had been working together for a long time now. And I thought he would understand where I was coming from by now. The nerve. The absolute fucking nerve. Did he think sabotaging Loraine and breaking down those overly possessive alphas was freaking easy? Since I came, I had done my best to make sure Loraine was away from the boys, but nothing I did allowed them near me. They always stayed away from me no matter what I did, no matter how many stunts I pull
