Fated To My Twin Brother    CHAPTER 72 🌖
The silence in the Alpha's hall lingered long after the meeting had ended. Hannah walked briskly down the stone corridors, her hands trembling at her sides though she forced herself to look composed. She could feel the whispers still following her like shadows, no matter how fast she moved. The accusations. The doubt. The lingering what-ifs. Reaching her quarters, Hannah shut the door behind her and leaned heavily against it, closing her eyes. For a moment, she allowed the weight of it all to sink in—how the pack she'd fought to protect was now questioning her very identity. Because of her. Ericka. Her hand hovered over the small communication stone on the table. She hesitated before finally picking it up and whispering, "Mom." The faint hum of the stone signaled her connection, and after a heartbeat, her mother’s gentle voice filled the quiet. “Hannah, sweetheart? Is everything all right?” The kind tone nearly undid her. Hannah swallowed hard, trying to keep her voice st

The morning sun filtered weakly through the heavy clouds, casting a dull glow over Hampton. The events of the previous day weighed heavily on everyone, leaving a palpable tension that clung to the air like mist. Most people still called her Hannah, and Hannah stood on the balcony outside her room. The biting wind chilled her skin, but she welcomed the chill, something to ground her. She wrapped her arms around herself as memories rose again: that fateful night when her life changed forever, when Ericka, the real Hannah, had marked her. Her pale skin was a constant reminder, her new reality written on her body. Behind her, the door creaked open, and a familiar presence broke through her isolation. It was Hadzen. “Standing out here won’t help,” Hadzen said quietly, approaching her with steady steps. His voice, though calm, carried concern. “You’ll catch a cold.” Hannah didn’t turn to face him. “A cold is the least of my worries.” Hadzen let out a deep sigh, halting beside her

It was a heavy night in Hampton, one weighted down with a silence that had pressed upon her. She could still hear Ericka’s words, some cruel mantra echoing within her mind: “You’re not who you claim to be.” She sat by the window of her room, moonlight dimly illuminating her white face and tired eyes. Beyond, dark and still outside, loomed the forest. Out there, somewhere, was the truth, its presence taunting her all the more for its silence. Footsteps again came closer to her door. This time it was Maxine who entered, expression tense but softened by worry. “Can’t sleep?” Maxine asked softly, closing the door behind her. She crossed the room and sat down on the edge of Hannah’s bed. Hannah shook her head, twisting the edge of her blanket with her fingers. “It feels like everything’s unraveling.” Maxine looked at her with the greatest care, her eyes maternal but worried. “You know, Hannah, whoever you are—none of this is your fault.” The words struck a chord deep inside

The moon hung low over Hampton, casting a silvery light upon the tense air that had descended upon the estate. Here and there, the soft hum of the wind was all that broke the stillness, accompanied by the faint rustle of leaves as Hadzen impatiently paced up and down the front steps of the main house, feeling the weight of what had unfolded grow within him: the silent despair of Hannah, the lingering bitterness of Ericka, and the tempest gathering within their once peacefully ripened world. Inside, the house was as silent as a tomb. Hannah sat on the edge of the bed Maxine had prepared for her earlier, knees drawn to her chest. Her mind was a whirlwind of emotions, questions, and fragments of her past life. The woman who called herself the real Hannah, Ericka, stood in the doorway, looking at her with an intensity like thunder ready to break. “Should I return to the human place to discover what lies hidden about my past?” Hannah murmured into the desolate chamber. Her pale finger

The council meeting had adjourned, but the tempest it had left in its wake was yet far from over. Inside the Hampton estate, the air seemed to cling to the walls like a shroud of silence. Hannah—the girl they had called Hannah her whole life—sitated on the balcony of her temporary room, gazing blankly into the seemingly endless stretch of forest. The wind carried with it the faint howls of wolves in the distance, but tonight, it only made the swirling within her seem more confused. The words Ericka flung at her in the meeting still echoed in her mind: "You have my face, my voice—everything that was mine!" Her chest constricted and she could hardly breathe. Could it be? Was her whole life a mistake, a lie? She drew her knees up to her chest, and the poison of doubt crept into her mind. If Erica was telling the truth, then who was she? Where did she belong? A soft knock at the door made her jump. She hadn't answered before Hadzen slipped inside, leaning indolently against the frame

On that day, the council hall buzzed with tension that almost seemed to suffocate as the elders sat once again in their carvings of ancient high-backed chairs, the backside of which were intricately carved with symbols symbolizing the wolf heritage. This was no ordinary day; Ericka's accusations had sent ripples not to settle. Hadzen went in first, his face as stiff as stone. Behind him Hannah—still Hannah for the moment—walked, her head held high and her pale complexion a token of the turmoil that thrashed within her. But Maxine was at her side, her presence iron-strong and unshakeable, a silent pillar supporting her. On the other end of the hall, Ericka stood straight with her arms crossed over her chest. Leo was not around, but his shadow existed in every corner of the hall as if his presence lingers unseen. The smug gaze of Ericka zeroed in on Hannah, and there was a silent challenge in her eyes. Theresa called the meeting to order, her voice stern and clipped: "We are gather

The cold wind roared through Hampton's dense forest, whistling a sad tune that seemed to go well with the tension hanging heavy over the estate. Trees swayed under the pressure, whispering their secrets from the centuries back. No one dared utter these secrets out loud. Ericka sat in the east wing by the big window, staring out to the horizon. She had yet to speak since returning to Hampton. Her face was bitter-sweet, a mixture of sorrow and anger. The pale face reflected dim light filtering through the glass; it cast a ghostly glow over her sharp features. Her past scars clung to her like a shadow, haunting and relentless. "Ericka?" Hadzen's voice cut into the silence as he entered the room. He furrowed his brow at what he saw. He did not miss the way her shoulders stiffened at his presence. What do you want? Ericka's tone was brusque, her voice hollow. Hadzen ignored her hostility and moved closer. "You can't keep shutting everyone out. You're back. The least you can do is—"

Darkness fell on Hampton; night hung above, enveloped by thick clouds, and shaggy shadows reached and wrapped themselves around the edges of the woods floor. The house, meanwhile, was unnaturally quiet-too quiet-for anything should have been still when awaiting the storm. Winter sat at the edge of her bed, with her arms curled over her knees as she blankly watched the glowing embers in the fireplace dance with fire. Ericka's words were ringing in her head, venomous and relentless. “They bestowed upon her all that was rightfully mine.” Winter swallowed hard, a tightness gripping her throat. She knew those words—they had echoed in her ears during her lonely days in the human world, when the bullies had mercilessly taunted her for being something she had yet to understand. Now, in what she believed to be her second chance, those same words returned to haunt her once more. It made Ameila give heed unto soft throb from the door. "Winter?" It was Maxine's voice. "Come in," Winter

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
Fated To My Twin Brother    CHAPTER 89 🌖
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
Fated To My Twin Brother    CHAPTER 88 🌖
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.
