Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate Lance 2.0
"What's wrong, Ezra?" Felise asked. Before anything happens, I mustered my courage and stepped forward while growling to those familiar werewolves in front of us, "No matter what happened, stay behind me, Felise," I replied. The two figures who appeared in front of us out of the blue were none other than Uncle Robin and his mate, Aunt Alexa. If I am not mistaken, the last time Uncle Robin and I have our conversation was when in Felise's car a few meters away from the village. I have been a lone wolf at that time, seeking a pack. And as far as I could remember, our conversation ended up with a threat. He disapproved of me and Felise joining Alexander's pack, knowing I am feeding myself into the lion's den. But I did not expect Aunt Alexa to come with Uncle Robin. What are they doing on Aric's property? Is this incident simply a coincidence? "So, you finally found your mate, huh? I am so proud of you, son," Aunt Alexa asked, her voice stained with utter intrigue
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate The Truth
"Then you left us with no choice, Ezra. Dad ordered us to bring you to the village dead or alive." Lance replied before he ordered his minions, "Beat him!" Without further asking questions, two of Lance's minions held my hands and legs. Hard enough I could barely move my body no matter how hard I tried. The rest of them began punching me in the face and chest. After a few minutes of beating me to death, they grabbed and lifted my body away from the place before anyone could see us. They brought me into one of the hallways behind the school building and continued beating me to death. A part of me wanted to shift into my werewolf form to at least expedite the healing process but it was already too late when my body was similar to a withered vegetable. Drops of blood are all over me after getting a few punches from them, specifically Lance. And they were all enjoying seeing me lying on the ground. "I think that would be enough, Lance. Our alpha told us to bring hi
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate No, It's a Threat
"I think I know what he did exactly that night, Felise," Razel said back with confidence. "That night... Ezra hides something from us. He took Lance's dead body to Aric's pack in exchange for his approval." "Approval for what exactly, huh, Razel?" Felise frowned, her voice sounded demanding. "Am I the only one who doesn't know what the hell is going on?" I could not help but grit my teeth as this is the kind of situation and conversation my wolf has been trying to avoid since we joined Aric's pack. The worst part is that I don't have anything to back me up in this kind of situation. I was about to say something, a lie to be precise, but my stepbrother preceded me. "He brought Lance's dead body to Aric and his wolves for both of you to be able to join his pack. And his men were the ones who burned the car and dumped Lance's body into the seashore. Tell me if my pack missed something based on what we've got, Ezra, " he replied. My feeble eyes could see her suspec
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate Building Our Own Pack
The two did not wait for me to say something as they evacuated my apartment right after that. It was also the time when I dropped my butt to the floor as my entire body weakened like jelly. "Inhale, Ezra. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Everything is going to be fine." I tried to convince myself. But I already know this is not going to be as easy as counting from one to three. After almost an hour of sitting in one position, my trembling nerves began to feel at ease. Then I remembered the fact that Aric's pack, my new family, is about to get colonized by Rustom's pack tomorrow evening. Everything Uncle Robin and Rustom told me struck my heart and brain like a bolt of lightning. They were both right. Our pack doesn't stand a chance against them. Apart from the fact that we were outnumbered, we don't have the means to face them. They have thousands of skilled and well-trained werewolf guardians compared to ours, rogue wolves, who were depending on each other's strength.
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate The Bloody Battle
As soon as we stepped foot into the underground, I quickly put handcuffs on Felise and Razel's hands and tied them to the metal bars so they could not escape easily unless they have to shift into werewolves. "Ezra, what are you doing?" Razel blurted as he attempted to remove the handcuffs. "Let us go!" "I'm so sorry, Felise, Razel, but this is the only way for you two to be safe," I replied, my voice strained with regret after seeing them being locked up. "Please, stay here until midnight. I'll be right back." Felise was about to say something but I refused to listen to it and evacuated the underground. I made sure to lock the door and left afterward. An hour later, I arrived at Aric's den. Everyone, including our pack leader, was already standing in an open field, waiting for Rustom's pack to appear. The silence of the entire forest was deafening. My wolf could barely hear anything apart from their heartbeats. They're everywhere, feeling anxious. "I'm so s
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate Aric's Lies
The bloody battle lasts for about three hours. Some of Aric's rogue wolves died in cold blood. But their efforts and deaths did not go to waste when we manage to defeat an impossible opponent. On the other side of the story, Rustom and some of his werewolf guardians, including Uncle Robin managed to escape the chance of death. They run away as soon as we conquered most of them and beat them to death. As a result, our pack ended up victorious though our numbers decreased by half. It means to me that Aric's plan, despite he prepared it for just a day, means more effective than I expected. Rustom and Uncle Robin advised me and Felise to stay away from the pack because they were confident enough that they can colonize us with their numbers. Let alone they have the strongest werewolf guardians my wolf has ever known. "Are you all right?" Aric asked before he helped me up. He checked those profound wounds all over my body. Luckily, most of the deep wounds started t
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate Out of the Picture
I don't know how to explain this kind of sensation but as soon as he mentioned Aric's name, the human side of me chickened out all of a sudden. Without Ezra on my side, I felt weak and helpless. The courage that mustered me to barge into Aric's den shattered into pieces and disappeared into thin air. Then I gulp, searching for the courage that helped me reach the forest. I must do something about this, for Ezra's sake. He and his stepbrother believe in me. So I forced my feet to move forward. Everything around me is a mess. There is no way Aric's wolf could notice my presence right away. I mean, his mind could have been preoccupied with the result of the battle. "Perhaps you should proceed with the plan B, Aric," a man's familiar voice echoed in my ears. If I am not mistaken, he is Aric's right-hand man. I was about to reach out to the doorknob of Aric's chamber but was cut off because my wolf sensed something from their conversation. Before anyone could s
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate Pre-wedding Celebration
My wolf still has a lot of unanswered questions but Ezra shooed us out of his apartment already. However, he promised to tell me everything by tomorrow. Razel even agreed to us getting shooed away when he believes Ezra needs enough time to rest. An hour later, I found myself in front of my apartment. I was about to reach for the card key but I noticed the door was slightly open. As far as my brain could remember, I made sure to lock the door when I left this morning. Then I glanced around, sensing if someone breaks into my apartment. As soon as I get in, I could not help but frown when two familiar figures were sitting on the couch in the living area. "Mom? Dad? What are you guys doing here?" I raised the question knowing none of them kept a duplicate of my apartment keys. To my surprise, I heard someone flush the toilet. My eyes enlarged when it was none other than Aric. "We're so sorry for not informing you in advance, honey. But your dad and I have agre

"You are the ones who killed me in the first place, Mom, Dad. My happiness. My rights. And on top of that, my future. What kind of parents do that to their daughter? I'm so sorry if I disrupted your peaceful dinner." Before I could lose my love and respect for my parents, I evacuated the house with a heavy heart and endless tears. There are no more words or courage left in me that could convince them. So I decided to focus on building my second family which is the pack the way Ezra and I wanted it to be. Piece by piece, we achieve a few things on our bucket list. Our numbers increased to a hundred. Three days later, our fifty became a hundred, and a hundred became a thousand in a matter of days with the help of Razel's pack and Ezra's endless effort to solve every problem every time we encountered one. On top of that, we haven't heard anything from the rest of the packs around us either, giving us enough time to become strong. For me to become the best version of

"No," Ezra blurted, "Let's stick with the plan. Baptism and the Mating Night. Rust will help you guys with the flow of the events. I'll be patrolling the perimeter to make sure the plan succeeds tonight." Right after insisting, Ezra shifted into a wolf and ran away. Yes. Running away would be the perfect definition of what he thinks he's doing right now. He wants to hide his feelings - that he was hurting by the fact that I am going to mate his stepbrother. I know Ezra more than anyone in the world. His pain was excruciatingly unbearable that was why he could not bear to see me getting mated to Razel. All though it was his plan in the first place, he didn't want to turn back on his words even if his stepbrother already confessed to us the possibility of not getting anything from their pack. As soon as Ezra was gone out of my sight, Rust ordered us to begin the baptism. Right after the successful baptism of the Crescent moon pack, I found myself in the middle o

"How about let's prove that your alpha is useless? Kill them all!" Alexander ordered his wolves before he shifted into one. His boisterous growls produced mild movements of the ground, scaring the hell out of everyone, including Ezra and Razel. Before anyone could lay their claws and fangs on my pack members, I jumped on top of Alexander and landed alongside Ezra and Razel. My desire to kill washed over me while shifting the color of my eyes. We already lost two of our pack members. Those numbers all end there. Alexander and his wolves were taken aback when I growled louder than him. My growls did not just produce continuous movements on the ground and shoo all the wild animals around us but shook off everyone's nerves. There was this strange energy that surged in every fiber of my muscle, reverberating through me like a bolt of lightning. I could even feel my claws and fangs increase in size. Sharpened by the seconds. The brown hair attached to my body refl
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate The Rise of the New Pack
"No, I highly doubt that," Ezra replied, compared to me and Razel, his voice still filled with hope. "There is another group of wolves a few meters away from the house. They have Mom and your father in that car." That makes sense. My senses were focused only on those werewolves above us. Diverting my heightened senses away from them did not even come to mind. Indeed, there, not far away from the house, stood ten more of Alexander's pack, surrounding the car where Razel's parents are held captives. Ezra's werewolf instincts about Rustom holding them alive were precisely right. Rustom had his motive for letting them stay alive. That also makes me wonder why Alexander agreed to help us save Razel's parents in exchange for Lance. Does that mean he also had his motive for keeping Lance? If there was one, what could it be? But no matter what that is, I must be prepared. "There were thirty werewolves in total surrounding us right now," one of our new members conf

"What will happen to them?" I asked those security guards who dragged me to the parking lot and hopped me into someone's black BMW car by force. Then we took off. "Don't give me that kind of glance, old man." I continued, this time, with a demanding tone, "You knew something. What does Aric wants from them?" "We don't know what Alpha Aric wants from them exactly, but I heard it will not do good to both of them..." As the old man kept on talking, I kept my eyes glancing in and out of the car, especially the direction we were heading. Based on my quick observation, we are not heading to my apartment, my parents' place, or Aric's den, but to the airport. Behind me, if I am not mistaken, were two large luggage bags. What's going on? I know what I did was unforgivable. But are they planning to separate me from Ezra? No. Aric is going to kill them. We still have an unfinished business with Alexander. And we just built our own pack. I must do something because my
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate Felise's End Game
Ezra nodded, "Simply because I closed my eyes back then. What if they notice and attack us all of a sudden?" he replied. I don't know if he was simply teasing me or not with his response. His overflowing rage toward me twenty seconds ago, but our ten long seconds kiss, melted and turned into a fine blushing. However, it does not change the fact that he wanted me to mate with his stepbrother. "Sorry," I uttered softly, "But I'm afraid my wolf cannot mate Razel right now, Ezra." "May I know the reason?" he insisted, his voice started to calm down as well. Perhaps he already confirmed that those wolves just passed by were already gone. There was no other way they could have sensed anyone's presence underneath the abandoned house because Ezra and Razel securely surrounded the place with human poop and other disgusting smells to distract a werewolf's heightened sense of smell. Even if we were outside sitting inside the car, they could bearly trace us either because
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate About Kissing You
Ezra's serious expression cut deeper into my heart. However, my instinct senses something more than meets the eye. It seems to me that he had something in mind that he was afraid for me to know. A part of me wanted to ask him about it but I know today is not the best time to push it through. Ezra still has something in his mind. He had to save his Mom to be able to make peace with his stepbrother. Let alone we still need to negotiate with Alexander which I still found not an assurance that their parents are still alive a the moment. That one concern alone could turn everything upside down. The best thing I can do for myself right now is to support Ezra's plan. In order to help Ezra build the pack, my wolf must address the mess I made at the wedding first. I don't want to pour fuel into Ezra's blazing fire so I must make sure he or Razel do not get involved with it. So I proposed to Ezra to explain to us about the Crescent pack. Part of his job being my advisor is
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate Running Away
As soon as I reached the middle part of the red carpet, my feet lost their will to move forward. My throat dried all of a sudden accompanied by the tears in my eyes flooding my cheeks. "Ezra, please, save me. I can't do this anymore." I uttered to myself. Everyone in the wedding venue, most especially the groom, furrowed when I simply looked him in the eye. Doubts were apparently displayed all over my face. The moon goddess seemed to have heard my impossible prayer when everyone's attention was shifted onto someone else - to the person who just slammed the door of the church open. I slowly turned around and found a familiar face. Though his entire face was covered in sweat and dirt, my instinct can never get mistaken. My knight in shining armor just arrived a bit late but it was the thought that counts. "Razel," I softly mumbled his name. Even though he was not my true knight in shining armor, it was the thought that counted for me. I don't what exactly happene
Fated to my Stepbrother's Mate The Wedding Day
"Right," Razel nodded his head, "Aric and his men will be out the entire day to attend the wedding. It will be our only chance to achieve the plan. Ezra and I must take the opportunity of them being gone to search for Lance in his den. Is that what you mean by it, Brother Ezra?" "It is the only way I could think of we could save our parents, Felise." Ezra agreed. "We hope you understand that. Please, do me a favor. I need you to get married to Aric tomorrow." My heart feels like I was left all alone and got sunk into the bottom of the wide blue ocean that the two could do such a thing to me as though none of them considered how I might feel about it. I want to save their parents as much as they do, but I did not expect it to be this way - hurting me badly. Selling me to the wolf whom I hated the most. On top of that, my love and care for Ezra was unconditional. I may have promised him that my wolf would do everything to make him happy, but no matter how hard I try
