Fated to Four Brothers What Can We Do To Help?
Loraine’s POV The drive to the store is quite short and filled with silence. It is in a part of Alpha Hunter’s settlement that I’ve not been to. Kris has said nothing more since we left the house, and I have not tried to engage him in a conversation either. “What do you think suits him?” I ask, closing the distance between us. When my shoulder brushes his arm, jolts of electricity run through me, but I don’t pull away. I can’t. “You know him more than I do.” Keeping up the casual facade is draining. I had thought I would be able to keep it up, but spending time with him is doing the exact opposite of what I want. I can almost touch the tension charged in the air between us. I almost taste all the words he wants to say to me. My wolf has been purring all day, eager to get closer to her mate. I have no idea how Alpha Hunter expects me to go through this and maintain a certain level of neutrality. After all this, there’s no way I won't be biassed when choosing. What if I end up l
Fated to Four Brothers Returning Home
Loraine’s POV Sasha and I spent about two hours in the pastry shop, after which Sasha decided she had been away from her husband for too long and decided to return to the infirmary. Maddox is still unconscious, but that did not stop me from dropping his get well soon gift. “Thanks for coming, Loraine,” Sasha says, giving me a side hug. “I’ll see you. When?” “I’ll come by often,” I assure her. “Maybe next time when I come, we can try that diner and maybe a spa?” She smiles and takes my hand, walking me back to the car. “Take care of yourself,” I say, drawing her close to me when we reach the car. “Don’t just take care of him and forget all about yourself. Your health is also important.” “Yes, mum.” Gently, she nudges me to the car, and Kris climbs in after me after giving her an affectionate hug and what I assume to be words of encouragement since I cannot hear a word of what they’re saying through the tinted glasses. By the time we get to the mansion, it's already past 10 p.
Fated to Four Brothers The Week Before We Crash
Loraine’s POV It hurts that as much as I want to give into the bond, I can’t. I can’t and do not want to lose my sh*t around the brothers again. I’ve lost it too much already, and every day I wake up, I regret giving in even though I love it just as much. Carefully, I untangle myself from him and paddle softly to his bathroom to wash my face and get ready for the hard morning. For the first time in days, I had a good night's rest, and it's showing. My face is giving an otherworldly glow, and maybe it’s just me digging into this intimacy thing, but if this is how it's going to be, then I might just get used to it. It’s just how Sasha said it. “Good morning, little wolf.” I glance up at Kris’ dishevelled appearance, moving out of the way as he stumbles into the bathroom. “Good morning.” I answer. “Looks like you slept well.” “No, I didn’t. I stayed awake through the night just so I could watch you sleep. You look like an angel when you sleep.” Heat travels to my cheek and re
Fated to Four Brothers Here goes everything.
Loraine’s POV By the time we return home, I feel like I’ve been run over by a truck, and I probably look like it too. I head to my room first to take a shower and change into simpler clothes. Although I spent my whole day trying not to think about the fact that this is Alpha Hunter’s night, it’s all I’ve thought about. I am well aware of the fact that we’ve not had any intimate moments between us except for that first time in his office when we kissed. I bring my fingers to my lips as though it would remind me of that day. The feelings that had been awakened inside of me since that very faithful day. I know I should probably be moving, willing my feet to take me to Alpha Hunter’s door, where I’ll be spending my night, but I can’t. Instead, I’m sitting on my bed having a mini-panic attack because who’s to say Alpha Hunter will be like Kris and not overpower me with his emotions? Urgh… I feel like pulling out my hair. The soft knock that sounds on my door stops me from doing t
Fated to Four Brothers You Need Me
Loraine’s POV Alpha Hunter and I fell asleep with the TV on, tangled up in each other with his face so close to mine that I feel him like an ache in my chest. I slept like the dead. My wolf is satisfied that he’s mine. Ours. The only thing more torturous than waking up with a man wrapped around you that you’re not sure you can be with, waking on top of a man you’re on your way to being in love with, but you know deep down that you can’t have him. Aren’t the two the same? Maybe. One of his hands is clutching my hip while the other curves around my ass to pull me tight. My face is pressed into his chest, with his thigh pressing between mine and his dickens hard against my belly. I swear, I never want to move. “Good morning, little wolf.” Alpha Hunter mumbles into my hair, causing me to stiffen. Inside my head, I am debating whether to pretend I’m still sleeping or sleep again for another two hours. Warning bells go off in my head for the seventh time, but I just don’t care.
Fated to Four Brothers Now We Are Whole
Loraine’s POV After putting the last finishing touches on the day, Preston heads out with a quick kiss to my cheek, and Kris drives me over to the infirmary. I can’t stop thinking about Preston. Shortly after Kris’ arrival, he had become distracted by something on his phone and went from looking, well, like Preston, to looking nervous and finally angry. And then he had rushed out of there like someone was chasing him? Did he not say he would take care of me all day today? I knew Preston was not the type to go back on his word or bail when things became too hot, so I knew that something must have come up. I glance at Kris, who’s too busy trying not to murder us. I wonder why he did not bring his chauffeur. “Did they find the people who took Beta Maddox?” He turns to me sharply, then back at the road. Kris is a shitty driver. “No. I’m not sure. If they did, Hunter would have mind linked me.” I nod. Before I can think more on the subject, Kris pulls up in front of the in
Fated to Four Brothers Revelations
Loraine’s POV Preston is looking at me like I’ve done the worst thing. Maybe I have. But they are all giving me that look, and I’m beginning to feel that maybe barging into Alpha Hunter’s office might have been a mistake. I can’t turn back time now. I also can’t move any part of my body. I simply stand frozen in the doorway, unable to do more than stare at them. My brain is all sorts of mushy because I have to push them. Figure out what’s really going on and wat the fuck they were talking about because I’m already broken in half by what I heard. The moment passes, and I soon begin to find some semblance of control. “What are you talking about? What do you mean by Gordon might be involved in my parents’ deaths?” Alpha Hunter jumps to his feet. The shock of me barging in slides of his face, but he doesn’t appear upset. “Loraine… it’s –” “Just tell me, goddammit.” I screech. “I need to know because this concerns me more than any of you. Does Alpha Gordon have a hand in my parent
Fated to Four Brothers Tightening Security
Loraine’s POV I was wrong. I did sleep, albeit not peacefully. Sometime after midnight, I wake to see one of my friends climbing into the bed behind me, but I’m too drowsy to know who it is. I see two other figures: one dropping into the armchair and the other balancing himself on the other chair. My brain does not register what is happening, so I lie back down and resume my restless sleep. Hours later, I wake to find Preston furiously whispering, “What the hell are you all doing in here? It’s my damn night.” I grunt a little, rubbing a hand over my face, and Kris’ hand tightens around me protectively. Wait. Kris? I glance around the room, and to my surprise, I see Killian and Alpha Hunter as well. What are they all doing here? Killian looks exhausted, and there’s blood on his shirt. My wolf soars inside me, eager to go over and heal him with our bond. “Are you hurt?” I ask, panic, then jump from the bed, but Kris and Preston pull me back down at the same time. Killian's e

Fated to Four Brothers Old wounds
Loraine’s POV The moment Alpha Gordon’s dark eyes locked onto mine, I felt my stomach churn. His gaze was the same as it had always been: intense, domineering, and calculating. I turned to Mabel, hoping to steer us into another store and avoid him altogether, but it was too late. He was already weaving through the crowd, his towering figure cutting through the bustling shoppers with purpose. “Loraine,” his deep voice called out as he stopped in front of me, blocking my path. I froze. The sound of his voice brought back a flood of memories—none of them good. Mabel looked between us, her brows furrowing in confusion. “Gordon,” I said stiffly, my voice void of warmth. “What the fuck do you want now?” His lips curled into a half-smile, the kind that once made me weak in the knees but now only made my blood boil. “We need to talk.” “I think we said all we needed to say weeks ago,” I snapped, stepping around him, but he grabbed my wrist gently—not enough to hurt, but enough to make me
Fated to Four Brothers Unexpected trouble
Loraine’s POV That evening, as we wrapped up dinner, I could feel the tension simmering between the boys. It had been an exhausting day, and I was looking forward to finally getting some sleep. Just as I stood to leave the dining area, Preston called out, his voice softer than usual. “Loraine,” he began, a hint of hesitation in his tone, “would you mind staying in my room tonight? I’d like to spend some time with you.” Before I could respond, Killian’s chair scraped against the floor as he stood abruptly. “Why should she stay with you, Preston? She stayed with you last week,” Killian said, his voice edged with irritation. Hunter chimed in, his arms crossed over his chest. “I don’t see why she shouldn’t stay in my room. It’s been a while, and I think it’s only fair.” Kris, leaning casually against the doorway, gave a lazy smirk. “You’re all ridiculous. If anyone gets her company tonight, it’s me. I think I deserve it after me being shot by wolfsbane and everything.” Their bickeri
Fated to Four Brothers Reconnecting
Loraine’s POV After an awkward hour, I excused myself to the restroom to compose myself and came back. When I stepped back into the game room, the atmosphere was electric with laughter and playful teasing. Everyone seemed so carefree, sprawled across couches or lounging on the floor. Mabel was sitting cross-legged next to Kris, a small smile tugging at her lips as he joked about something. I hesitated in the doorway, letting the moment wash over me. I had to fix things, not just for her but for myself. “Loraine!” Hunter’s booming voice broke through my thoughts. He pushed off the wall where he’d been leaning, his grin widening. “You’re just in time. We’re about to up the stakes.” “Oh no,” Chloe groaned, though she was smiling. “This better not be another one of your ridiculous games.” Hunter smirked. “Come on, my games are legendary.” “They’re legendary for getting people in trouble,” Sasha pointed out, narrowing her eyes. “Exactly!” Hunter shot back. “Now, shut up and
Fated to Four Brothers Loraine Snapped
Loraine’s POV It started as a normal morning. Kris had insisted on dragging himself out of bed, despite the doctor’s warnings to rest, and was now lingering in the living room, watching everyone bustle around. The others were preparing to head out after breakfast, and I was forced to stay behind, nursing a lingering sense of unease. Mabel was there too, sitting across from me with her usual air of quiet confidence. She didn’t say much, but somehow, her presence always felt larger than life. I tried to ignore the pang in my chest every time she flashed her perfect smile or casually caught someone’s attention. It wasn’t that I disliked her—at least, not consciously. But lately, it seemed like she was everywhere, always shining brighter, always winning over everyone in ways I couldn’t seem to match. Kris caught my eye, his brows furrowing slightly as he studied my face. “You okay?” he asked, his voice low enough that only I could hear. “I’m fine,” I replied quickly, forcing a smile.
Fated to Four Brothers Bonding Kris
Loraine’s POV Hunter was on the phone, pacing the room like a caged animal as Kris groaned in frustration. The doctor Hunter had called had just finished applying a thick, pungent salve to his arm, explaining it would neutralize the wolfsbane poisoning. But the second the doctor started to wrap the wound, Kris squirmed, loosening the bandage with an irritated huff. “Kris, stop fucking moving,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm. “It itches,” Kris snapped, glaring at his arm. “This stuff is torture.” Hunter put his phone down with a sigh. “Doctor, is this normal? He’s acting like you dipped his ass in acid.” “It’s perfectly normal,” the doctor said with a chuckle. “The medication is designed to draw out toxins, which can make the area tender and itchy. But it’s crucial that it stays on all night if he wants to heal properly.” “All night? Are you fucking kidding?!” Kris groaned, rolling his eyes. “You mean I’m stuck like this?” “Someone needs to stay with him,” Killian interj
Fated to Four Brothers Jealousy
Loraine’s POV The sun was beginning to set, painting the sky in hues of gold and pink as Sasha and Chloe gathered their things. The day had gone better than I expected—no major fights, no icy glares (from Sasha, at least), and plenty of laughter. It felt… normal. Something I hadn’t realized I missed until now. “I had a really great time,” Sasha said, giving Mabel a tentative smile. “I’m… glad we did this. I look forward to spending more time together.” Mabel’s eyes lit up with relief, and she nodded. “Me too. Thanks for giving me a chance, Sasha.” I felt warmth bloom in my chest. This was exactly what I’d hoped for. “That’s wonderful,” I said, smiling at both of them. But Chloe, standing slightly behind Sasha, caught my eye. She shot me a pointed, cautious look that sent a clear message: Don’t fuck this up. The moment passed quickly, and Chloe stepped forward. “Alright, time to go, Sasha. Let’s not overstay our welcome.” Sasha rolled her eyes but didn’t argue, turning to Mabel
Fated to Four Brothers Reconciling Sisters
Loraine’s POV Waking up in Killian’s room wasn’t something I planned to make a habit of, but here I was again because a certain somebody refused to share me with his brothers. And when I say a certain somebody, I mean the big sulky oaf called Killian, who was currently hugging me tightly like he was scared I would disappear if he relaxed. I could feel the thick bulge of his cock pressing against me through his pants, but I already knew he wouldn’t let me help him out, so I let it go. But no matter my grumble, I actually enjoyed waking up like this. His scent wrapped around me, warm and intoxicating, making it harder to get up than it should’ve been. I sighed, slipping out from under the blankets and trying to fix my hair in the faint morning light. The last thing I needed was for Killian to wake up and catch me sneaking out of bed. He’d drag me right back into bed! I opened the door quietly, only for my clumsy ass to bump straight into Mabel. “Oh!” she exclaimed, her hands sh
Fated to Four Brothers Mabel’s Story
Loraine’s POV If I thought the drama at breakfast was the worst that could happen, I soon realized that I was very, very wrong. By afternoon, things were even worse. Hunter had called for a meeting so we could look over how the security measures were holding up. And the word awkward couldn’t even begin to describe how the atmosphere was anytime Mabel and the boys entered the same room. The tension in the room was suffocating as we all gathered in the sitting area. Hunter stood at the center, his presence commanding as usual, but even he looked like he wanted to be anywhere else. The boys were scattered—Kris leaning against the wall, arms crossed; Preston sprawled in the armchair with a scowl; and Killian standing rigidly near the door, his cold stare fixed on Mabel. Mabel sat at the far end of the couch, her hands twisting nervously in her lap. Her eyes darted between the boys, a mix of hope and dread in her expression. It didn’t help that none of them had acknowledged her pres
Fated to Four Brothers Tension
Loraine’s POV Hiding from the attackers yesterday had knocked me out so much that I had fallen asleep on the couch, and I wasn’t even aware when Killian picked me up and carried me to his room. He let me sleep in today because the morning light had already filtered through the dining room windows when I took a seat at the long dining table. Preston was already pouring himself a cup of coffee, Kris was buttering a slice of toast, and Hunter and Killian were deep in a discussion about the patrol schedule for the day. The mood was calm, almost normal, and I found myself relaxing for the first time since yesterday’s shitfest. “Sleep well?” Hunter asked me, his tone warm. I nodded, giving him a small smile. “Better than I expected. Thanks for checking on me last night.” Killian had told me that Hunter kept coming to check that I was safe. “Of course,” he said, his gaze softening. Preston slid a plate of fruit toward me. “Eat. You need to keep your strength up.” “Oh goddess Presto
