Hannah sat at the cafeteria table, gazing blankly at her plate. The bustle going on around her slowly receded into a sort of general hum that was muted and vague. The events of last night clung to her like a fog she could neither clear nor rub away. She wasn't really conscious of the cafeteria filling with students, nor did she pay much attention to the countless glances people threw her as they passed. Her brain was gone, spinning in a mad circle of one image: the man standing over her bed, the cold eyes boring into her, the soft-voiced words that iced her blood.

She vaguely realized she was still twirling her fork around her pasta, mashing the noodles into a mangled, disgusting mess. But her stomach roiled, so any notion of eating seemed impossible, and yet she couldn't tear herself out of her trance.

Dylan sat across from her, studying her with a growing frown creasing his face, and scanning all her features for any hint of what was wrong. Beside him, Sonia was showing animated ene

  • Fated To My Twin Brother    CHAPTER 35

    The sunset settled gently around them as Dylan and Hannah walked hand in hand, the only noises being the sound of their feet kicking gravel leading home. The last rays of sun painted the sky in pastel shades of orange and pink, bathing with warmth the large gate of the mansion in front of them. Dylan felt at ease within her presence and was settling into his routine. This daily routine, stopping by and making sure she got home safely, became something he looked forward to every day.Just reaching the gate, Hannah turned to him with a very faint smile playing about her lips. "Dylan, thank you for always making sure I get home safely." Her eyes were so warm that his heart skipped a beat. "I really appreciate that.She caught him off guard, stepping forward and putting her arms around him. The hug was tender, warm, and filled with a gratitude he could feel radiating from her. Dylan froze, stunned for a moment before relaxing into the hug, letting himself savor it. It wasn't often that Ha

    Storming into her room and slapping the door behind her, Hannah was trying hard to shake off the feeling that Hadzen had left with her. His coldness, his dismissal of whom she chose to spend her time with, especially when it came to Dylan, stirred up a fresh resentment inside her. Why should he not let her get her own way?What's his problem?" she mumbled, snatching a towel from her closet and heading to the bathroom. She wanted to unwind, and a warm bath felt like it was going to be the only thing that would soothe her frayed nerves. The filling water sounded like balm, and soon, steam began to rise and fog the mirror, but warmed the room.She sank into the bath, her skin wrapped in warm water. She felt it ease all tension away from her muscles. "Dylan is my friend. Our friend", she whispered to herself again. "*Why can't he just let that be? Why does he have to interfere with everything?)As the warmth of the bath seeped through her, Hannah's gaze drifted down to her arm and she pau

    Hannah sat calmly on her bed, her hair still damp from the bath, as her mother, Maxine, brushed it with gentle, rhythmical strokes. She hadn't felt this kind of comfort in ages, a soft, quiet moment with her mother after so much chaos. She was still thinking about that night before-the water, drifting off to that heavy dazedness, and then jolting awake to Hadzen's panicked face, Dylan's concern. But in the presence of her mother, fear softened, relieved by Maxine's calm, steady touch."God, you freaked me out, Hannah," Maxine said very softly yet firmly, her words dripping in anxiety. "I don't want to lose you again. I almost lost you once, and that was enough for a lifetime."She swallowed hard with a pang of guilt as her mother's hand paused mid-stroke. She looked down, twisting uncomfortably in her lap by the fingers. "Mom, I'm sorry for making you worry like that. It was just a mistake. I didn't mean for it to happen.".Maxine took the brush up again and began smoothing her hair-t

    Hannah slumped her body against the ledge of the third-floor window of Eastwood University. Her eyes could roam loose down across the pathway that seemed sun-bright below, and she was lost to the sound of groups of students laughing and talking around her. But into her head, she was letting imagination wander into a world that seemed foreign from everything she knew."Sonia," she whispered to her friend at her side, "do you think I'll ever have a chance to visit the human world?"Sonia gazed back at her with a wistful smile. "I have been there before," she said. "It was… amazing. I even made a friend there, Lena. But ever since Alpha Ador created this place for us, it has been forbidden.". Only the high-ranking wolves are allowed outside, and even then only to make sure that no threats come near. "She lowered her voice. "Your grandfather had enemies there, you know. One of them. well, he was your mother's stepbrother."Hannahs interest was piqued. "I didn't know that," she replied, a s

    "Sonia.""Sonia."Sonia drifted up into wakefulness, she was jolted from her sleep by her mother's soft tugging. She was dazed and disoriented, not knowing the fuzzy figure hovering before her."Sonia," said her mother softly. "Hannah's here."Sonia jerked forward and rubbed her eyes. "Hannah? At.3 am.? Why?Her mother shrugged small, bewildered. "She didn't say. Just that she needs to see you right away. She's waiting for you in the sala.".Heart pounding with a mix of concern and curiosity, Sonia slipped out of bed, grabbing a robe and hurrying down the hallway. Her thoughts must have been racing to consider what in heaven's name could possibly bring Hannah to her door at such an hour. It was such an uncharacteristic visit from her friend, whose otherwise calm demeanor never betrayed a hint of impulsiveness.She had hardly passed across the darkness of the sala when Hannah came in with herself pictured against the window, halflit through the diaphanous veil that the moon sent drifti

    She was taking a deep breath when she could feel her eyes going soft at the familiar sights around town. "Can't believe I'm here again." She spoke in a hushed whisper. "The air, the streets… I missed this."Hannah walked beside her, her eyes darting hither and yon, wide with wonder as she took in everything. The streets were alive, even at that early hour, with people rushing to and fro, cars chugging by, and the faint scent of coffee wafting from a nearby café. She had heard stories of the world of humans but nothing like it compared to being here."This is… pretty far from home," Hannah whispered, her voice tinged with awe. "It's… crowded but beautiful."Sonia laughed and nudged her gently. "Overwhelming, isn't it?"Hannah nodded, her gaze transfixed by the flashing signs, colorful storefronts, and people walking past with an ease that seemed almost foreign. Everything here felt bright, lively, and vibrant in a way she'd never experienced within the quiet, hidden world of the pack.

    Hannah's thoughts remained in the memories of the human world: the busy streets, the thrill of stepping outside the pack's boundaries, and the rich sweetness of melting chocolate on her tongue. That was the taste of freedom, a glimpse into something she didn't even know was missing.But as she sat down with her family at the long dining table, she tried to hide all her thoughts. Around her, familiar faces settled into chairs; a quiet evening meal was to be shared. She glanced across at her mother, Maxine, whose face wore that curious, warm expression.Maxine tilted her head, surveying Hannah's face with a soft, compassionate smile. "You seem happier than usual tonight, Hannah. How's your day been?"Hannah forced a neutral expression, attempting to lock away the excitement swelling inside her. "Yeah, Mom. I'm… I'm just. I guess I'm happy."Maxine's smile crept up, and she sat forward, looking intrigued. "And what's made you so happy?Hannah skipped a heartbeat, and fast enough she prod

    Hannah lay awake and stared up at the ceiling. She just couldn't sleep, her thoughts swirling in her head like leaves on a stormy night. The quiet comfort of her bed, the safe walls of the Hadson pack's territory, suddenly felt restrictive to her. A yearning lay within her, an insistent pull that tugged at her, urging her to go back to the human world. Something had to be understood, something she couldn't quite define.She sat up after tossing and turning for nearly an hour, whispering into the stillness, "I have to see it again… I need to understand."She quietly got out of bed wearing only her hoodie, skinny jeans, and a pair of rubber shoes. She was too discreet to disturb them; hence, she was very silent as she slipped out of the pack grounds and disappeared into the forest.It took some time but soon the dense trees thinned out, and she could view the lights of the city ahead. Hannah filled her lungs with air, and the excitement of embarking into this new world rushed through he

    She closed her eyes tight, felt the stab running through her chest by his claws and the warm spreading blood from her across to his ground below. In reality, Winter's line was blurring, though gritted she would let Leo go nowhere. Hadzen's heart stopped. He saw the whole scene. His mind screamed at him to get up and stop Leo. He could not do that, however. He was stuck in his place by the view of Winter's blood seeping from his body to the floor. In him, anger began to well but panic superseded it. "No!" Winter's faint voice barely reached his ears as he snapped out of his paralysis. She coughed, the breath shallow. "Hadzen… get out of here… run…" Hadzen's legs began moving at a force that he couldn't control. He moved forward with a mind screaming desperately, "Winter!" Leo looked up, his cold stare meeting Hadzen's. For a moment, they locked gazes, a silent challenge between them. But Leo didn't back down. His hand remained deep in Winter's chest, drawing out the power of the

    The blood moon deepened, casting an eerie glow across the window of Winter. It bathed her room in crimson light. Hadzen stood by the window, his sharp gaze fixed to the sky, his golden eyes reflecting the ominous red hue that the moon was assuming. Something was wrong. This air felt heavy, charged with unease, and his instincts screamed of danger. It felt unnatural to see how the light spread across the land, like a warning he alone could hear. He had felt this sort of dread before—a feeling of knowing tragedy was about to hit. His jaw clenched up as his fists closed up by his sides. He told himself, This isn't right. This is a sign. He could not resist it; the pull was too great, and he needed to return to the only place that held all the answers-the heart of Hampton. Now, he realized that the chaos he dreaded was no longer an eventuality but rather something that was already in process. Hadzen turned his face from the window; he relaxed his eyes because of what he saw-lies on t

    As they stood in front of the modest suburban home, which had a calm appeal due to the fading blue paint on the shutters, Winter’s pulse raced. After exchanging anxious looks, one of her two pals, Crisa and Maris, reached out and pressed the doorbell. Winter’s chest constricted as the bell reverberated throughout the home. She had no idea what to anticipate. She could hardly recall her time here, much less the individuals she may encounter. The woman in her late thirties emerged as the door swung open. Her tired eyes grew wide as they met Winter’s, and her dark hair was pulled back in a loose bun. Her palm gripped the doorframe as though to steady herself, and her lips parted in a wordless gasp. “Winter.” With tears in her eyes, the woman’s voice broke. Unsure of what to say or do, Winter stood motionless. It was hard to ignore the intensity emanating from the woman, even though her face was unfamiliar. “Mom?” Winter hesitated, the word unfamiliar to her. The woman sprang for

    The air in Hampton was heavy, the weight of decisions and revelations pressing down on Winter as she stood by the edge of the forest. The towering trees, their roots steeped in ancient magic, seemed to whisper warnings. Leaving the wolf’s sanctuary meant venturing into a world she had only glimpsed through distant memories—a world that neither embraced nor understood the Eclipse essence she now unknowingly carried. Hadzen stood beside her, his presence grounding her. His sharp gaze scanned the horizon, his usual stoic demeanor softened as he glanced her way. “Are you sure about this?” he asked, his voice low, laced with both worry and resolve. Winter tightened her grip on the straps of the bag slung over her shoulder. “I have to be. I need answers, Hadzen. About who I am… about what happened that night.” He nodded, his jaw tightening. “Then I’m coming with you. Whatever we face out there, we face it together.” Winter’s heart fluttered at his words, but she kept her emotions in

    The only sound in the room was the gentle rustle of the curtains as a refreshing breeze entered through the open window. The mellow brightness of the candles strewn across the room blended with the moonlight, which created delicate silver streaks over the wooden floor. Curled up against Hadzen’s chest, Winter’s fingers traced languid lines across his exposed flesh. Her movements had a sensitivity that made his heart constrict, even though her touch was light and almost timid. At first, neither of them said anything. The silence was thick and heavy with feelings they weren’t yet ready to express, yet it wasn’t uncomfortable. You wanted to enjoy the moment since you knew it might not happen again, and it was the kind of silence. With his fingers stroking in calming circles, Hadzen’s hand lay gently on Winter’s back. For a minute he closed his eyes and breathed her in, the warmth of her body against his, the subtle lavender perfume in her hair. For as long as possible, he wanted to clin

    The Hampton estate was oppressively quiet. Winter was standing by her room’s window, staring off into the huge forest beyond. She was struggling to breathe as the weight of the disclosures from the last few days slammed against her chest. She wasn’t Hannah. She wasn’t the ideal, compassionate, and predestined girl that everyone believed her to be. The delicate strands of her identity had been ripped by that fact, and she felt as though she was coming apart. The door behind her squeaked open. Winter did not arrive. She was not required to. The only person who could break through the jumble of her thoughts was someone she knew. Her voice was firm but scratchy as she replied, “I thought I locked the door.” Hadzen entered, his presence reverberating throughout the space. His golden eyes stared at her silhouetted figure against the faint moonlight for a moment before he spoke. At last, he murmured in a low, gravelly voice, “You did.” “I’m not interested.” The sight of him made Winter’

    As they strolled in quiet, the group was bathed in dappled light from the morning sun that filtered through the thick forest canopy. Winter followed Hadzen, her mind still jumbled from the night they’d spent together. She couldn’t deny the throbbing warmth in her heart, which was a maelstrom of perplexity and shame. It was difficult to control the feelings that threatened to overtake her because of the constant cadence of Hadzen’s steps in front of her, which was both consoling and agonizing. “Winter.” Her reverie was interrupted by Hadzen’s forceful yet gentle voice. His keen eyes scanned her face as he paused to walk next to her. “You haven’t said anything.” She shrugged, avoiding his eyes. “I have a lot on my mind.” A slight smile twisted Hadzen’s lips. “You’ve never been adept at controlling your feelings.” His sly gaze caused Winter’s cheeks to heat up. “And your ability to read them is obnoxious.” He answered in a firm yet light tone, “I’d call it a skill.” As the

    The silence of the Hampton estate was suffocating. Winter stood by the window of her room, her gaze lost in the vast expanse of the forest beyond. The weight of the revelations from the past few days pressed on her chest, leaving her gasping for air. She wasn’t Hannah. She wasn’t the girl everyone thought she was—perfect, kind, destined. That truth had severed the thin threads of her identity, and she felt like she was unraveling. Behind her, the door creaked open softly. Winter didn’t turn. She didn’t have to. She knew who it was—the only person who could cut through the chaos of her thoughts. “I thought I locked the door,” she said, her voice hoarse but steady. Hadzen stepped inside, his presence filling the room like a storm. He didn’t reply at first, his golden eyes locked on her figure silhouetted against the pale moonlight. “You did,” he finally said, his voice low, gravelly. “I don’t care.” Winter turned to face him, her chest tightening at the sight of him. His hair w

    As Winter, Hadzen, Sonia, and Ericka stood close to Hampton’s gates, prepared to go, the early morning air hung thick. With a worried expression on her face, Maxine had observed them from the stairs. She had vehemently opposed Winter’s departure, but it had been hard to deny her resolve. As she pulled Winter into an embrace, Maxine’s voice was tight as she whispered, “Promise me you’ll come back.” Winter held her close and said, “I will, Mom.” The group now stepped into the tree shadows, the forest stretching on forever in front of them. Even though they had no idea where they were going, Hadzen guided them with unwavering assurance and his keen intuition. Winter strolled next to him, the dim light filtering through the thick canopy, almost illuminating her pale complexion. As they moved further, Sonia said, her keen eyes darting about, “This place feels… different.” From the back, Ericka murmured quietly and grimly, “It’s because we’re getting close to the Veil.
