We finished loading up most of my stuff into Arrow’s truck. I was tired from carrying the boxes. I climbed in to wait for the twins who were bringing down the last couple of boxes. Arrow opened the door making me jump.“You ok Babe?” He asked watching me as though I may break.“Yeah, I am just tired. My body feels weird.” I wasn’t lying, my whole body felt like it was drained of all energy.“You look tired,” Arion said climbing in the passenger seat.“I am tired, moving is hard,” I didn’t want to tell them how nervous I am. Once everyone at school finds out I officially moved into the packhouse, I could only imagine what they will say.Arrow started up the truck backing out, he turned, and headed in the direction of the pack house. When we pulled up out front, Luna Nina and Alpha Jax stood waiting for us.“Rina! We are so glad you are here!” Luna Nina said excitedly.“Well Rina, I am glad you have decided to join us. My boys have talked about you nonstop.” Alpha Jax looked a lot like
My alarm went off the next morning. I tried to roll over but there was a heavy weight on me. I opened my eyes. Arion was asleep next to me with his arm over me. Arrow was asleep on the other side with his arm draped over me too. The memories of last night flooding back. I moved and the area between my legs felt sore. I smiled despite the soreness as I brought my fingers to the fresh marks on my neck. I settled back in. My alarm shut its self-off after a few more minutes. I nestled into Arion’s neck. He opened his eyes as he felt my breath on him.“Good morning, Beautiful,” he said sleep heavy in his voice. He kissed the top of my head before pulling me tighter against him. I felt so warm and safe in between my mates. I didn’t want to get up. I closed my eyes allowing myself to drift off to sleep again. My alarm went off a half hour later. I groaned wishing it would just shut up.“Why do we have to get up? I want to stay here like this all day,” Arrow grumbled rolling to face me. He ki
We got outside, I sat down on one of the benches. Everyone had reached a designated spot to start practicing their wrestling. My eyes were darting between my mates. I watched as Arrow rolled his eyes as Sheila apparently talked on and on. Arion looked equally annoyed at Jackie. I watched helplessly as the coach blew his whistle signaling the start of the wrestling lesson. I saw Sheila try to jump on Arrow from behind, he easily grabbed her and flipped her onto her back on the ground. Arion was holding onto Jackie as she tried to break out of his grasp. I looked back at Arrow to see Sheila jump at him like she was going to knock him over. To my utter shock, he caught her. I watched his face turn to anger as she wrapped her legs around him and used her hands to pull his face to hers. She kissed him! She knew he had marked me, but she kissed him anyway! I don’t remember what happened next but all of a sudden, I was rolling on the ground with Sheila locked in a headlock. I punched her fac
I don’t know how much time passed. I only knew, for the first time in my life, I was complete. I had never thought about finding my mate before. I had only ever planned to disappear from this place. A strange feeling washed over me as I was filled with a buzzing feeling. I sat up looking at the two naked bodies pressed against mine. We were still lying on the forest floor, our bodies muddied. I didn’t care. I only cared that I had completed our bond. It was now sealed, they had marked me and I finally had marked them. The entire world would know I am theirs and they are mine.I snuggled closer to them not caring we were in the open completely nude. I closed my eyes letting sleep claim me once more.I woke to a commotion, apparently, the pack still thought I was missing. I bolted up looking around at the many faces of my pack. I felt my heart race knowing we had been caught by the whole pack. I felt Arrow stir beside me. Without warning, he leapt to his feet, a feral snarl erupting from
The rest of the day we spent lazing around. I tried to keep my nerves from overwhelming me but I couldn't help but be worried. Arrow kept assuring me I was the only one he ever had eyes for. I trusted him but I didn't trust Sheila. The day turned into the night which ended faster than I had hoped. I rode to school feeling like I could throw up at any minute from my nerves. When we had parked, Arion picked me up holding me against him. My body trembled as I held on to him. I could feel the tears threatening to fall but I wouldn't let them. I wouldn't let her win."We are going to be with you all day. I promise, nothing is going to happen," Arrow said as he rubbed circles into my back trying to comfort me. "What about the classes you don't have with me? I know she was removed but you know how evil she is," I sounded like a scared little girl. How could I ever expect to be a good Luna when I sounded so pathetic? "Well, glad to see she doesn't care who is watching when she is trying to
I was sitting across from Alpha Jax, Arion on one side and Arrow on the other. "Dad, something has to be done about Sheila. She is set on hurting Rina. She can't be allowed to continue. Rina is our mate and the future Luna of this pack. Sheila should be tried for treason!" Arion shouted. I sat quietly chewing on my nail waiting to see what kind of punishment I was going to receive for attacking Sheila. Arion and Arrow had filled their father in on the situation and to my surprise, he already knew about my troubles with her. "Arion, I can't try her for treason unless she tries to kill Rina. As far as fighting, Rina had every right to defend her mates and the bond. I will be calling Sheila in to question her as well as calling a meeting with her parents. As for Coach, I think he will think twice before grabbing Rina again even if it involves a fight," Alpha Jax chuckled. "Rina, you will not be punished. You acted within your rights to a threat made against you and the mate bond. As f
"Dad, why do I need a guard? I can handle this, I promise." My pleas were falling on deaf ears. "I'm sorry Rina, as the future Luna, you need to understand how important this is. Alpha Jax wants you to have a guard at all times. Your safety has become a top priority." He stopped for a minute to look at me. "I know it doesn't seem it because of how much time I spend here, but your safety has always been a top priority to me." I could see my dad's love for me in how he looked at me. He kissed my cheek and we began walking again. I hated the idea of having a guard. I barely got any privacy now! How will I be able to have any with a guard? I rolled my eyes as I followed my dad to his office. Arrow and Arion were walking beside me talking about who they hoped my guard was. When we got to my Dad's office, he opened the door. I could see a man sitting in a chair. He was looking down at his phone. All I could see was his broad shoulders and a head of sandy blonde hair."Alvar, this is my da
The burning subsided after ten minutes. My head felt like it would float away. I sat up trying to suppress the want to vomit. Doctor Steininger was watching me closely. "How do you feel now?" he asked watching me as if I may puke on his shiny patten leather shoes."I feel like crap! How long does this last? Will I have to feel like this every day?" I felt myself getting more and more upset. Why do I have to go through this? Why can't something just be easy?"This should be the worst one. Since you were so close to your heat, I had to give you a higher dose than normal. I need to tell you, these shots will only keep the effects of your heat away. You can still get pregnant and if you are pregnant or you get pregnant, they will not harm a pup." "So you're telling me, I will still have all the other stuff, I just won't feel hot?" I asked incredulously. If that's all it does, why bother suffering through heat at all?"Rina, it's not that simple. This medication will only work temporaril
Today was the last day before the mating ceremony. I was excited but also nervous. I would be standing in front of the pack as we are announced as the new Alphas and their Luna. We would also be announcing the twins I am carrying. I looked at myself in the mirror. So much has changed in a short time. I went from being invisible to being mated to my hell twins. I wouldn't change being their mate but sometimes I have doubts about myself. Since the medallion confirmed I am the true Luna, I have tried to push the worries away. I never would have imagined that simple me, Rina, would be the true Luna, mated to the Alpha Twins. "Hey Rina, you ok in there?" Arion's voice broke through my thoughts. "Yeah, sorry, I will be out in a minute," I called back. I ran my fingers through my hair one more time before opening the door. Arion was still standing there, he leaned down gently kissing my forehead. "We were getting worried," he explained. I peered into our bedroom, Arrow was still sleepin
The next morning, I awoke to the smell of bacon cooking. My mouth watered as the scent filled my nose. I stretched as I yawned. I slid off the bed, and walking to the bathroom, I could hear the muffled voices of my mates. I made my way to the kitchen, the smell of bacon making my stomach growl. "Good morning," I greeted my mates. "Good morning Babe," they answered in unison. "We made breakfast," they both smiled. "It smells divine," I smiled back. Arrow placed a plate of bacon, eggs, and homefries before me. I picked up my fork and took a bite. It tasted every bit as good as it smelled. I couldn't help the moan that escaped me. "This is delicious," I said shoveling another fork full into my mouth. They both chuckled, "I'm glad," Arion said happily. They brought their plates over and plopped down on either side of me. A comfortable silence fell over us as we ate. When I had finished, I carried my plate to the sink. Turning on the water, I picked up the soap."Um, what do you think
The book in my hands held more information than I had ever seen in one place. The book foretold an enemy to werewolves unlike any we had faced before. Not only was it one of our own, but the truest packs would be the main targets. The medallions were forged long ago to help defeat the threat when the time came. As I looked at the words staring back at me from the pages, I couldn't help the feeling of worry growing heavier in my chest with each passing sentence. "Rina, you don't look like you are feeling very well," Arion's worried voice broke through my thoughts. "I think you need to take a break."I sighed, "I think you are right, I am going to put this back for now but we will have to come back soon," I said knowing I would hold the book again. Once we exited, I couldn't help but think about the things I had read. I had stopped before I read too much further into what would happen once the enemy was discovered. I knew we were facing a huge threat but I knew I had to protect my bab
The hot water helped to soothe my muscles. I wanted to relax and forget all the weird things that had happened that day. Why did the medallion react that way to me? Was I truly the true Luna of our pack? Why did I start glowing when I was upset from the nightmare I had? All these questions kept racing around inside my head. I sunk, letting myself sink below the water before popping back up again. I wiped the water from my eyes, and when I opened them, I was staring into two sets of identical eyes. "What are you doing in the tub, little mate?" Arion asked, his eyes darkening a bit. "We would have run a bath for you and joined you," Arrow replied in a husky voice. "I can run myself a bath," I retorted. " I wanted a bit of time to soak by myself," I said, giving them a sly smile. "Besides, my body is a bit sore. I leaned back and closed my eyes. I felt a hand reach in and tickle me, and I slapped it away eliciting a laugh from Arrow. "We will let you enjoy your time," he chuckled
"Babe, we have you," Arion tried again to soothe my sobs. "It was horrible," I cried. I lifted my head to look at my mates. "Rina?" Arrow said. "I am not trying to scare you, but you need to breathe, please, breathe with me," he began taking deep breaths and letting them out slowly. I tried to follow but my mind couldn't focus. I felt an unfamiliar feeling that began in the pit of my stomach before spreading throughout my body. "Rina, you have to listen to us right now," Arion tried, his voice thick with worry. I lifted my head to look at him. "Rina, please, you have to calm down," Arion begged. I looked at my hands, the strange glow that had been in my eyes when Sheila's mother had insulted me earlier had spread and was now engulfing my entire body. I looked into the worried eyes of my mates. I sucked in a deep breath before slowly releasing it. As I continued to breathe, the glow began dissipating. I concentrated on the feel of my mates holding me and before long, I was n
"My eyes are glowing?" I asked incredulously. I closed my eyes and opened them again. "Are they still glowing?" I asked looking at my mates. "It is fading," Arrow answered. "What the hell was that anyway?" he asked looking at his father."That my son was the medallion confirming Rina is the true Luna of our pack. The medallion will only react that way in the hands of the true Luna," he explained. "Will that happen every time she holds it?" Arion asked."I can't be sure," he replied. "I have only heard tales of its power." I sat quietly, there was a strange tingling sensation spreading throughout my body. I wasn't sure what to do, it did not hurt but it felt strange, to say the least."Let it happen, do not fight it," Mirage said in my mind. "The Moon Goddess is giving you the power to protect and help our pack. We always had the power and strength, she is blessing us with her strength, we are destined for this.""Mirage, why is she giving us more strength if we were always strong
We were back in our wing in no time. I sat on the couch sipping a hot cup of tea, it normally helped me calm down but my mind was still racing. I couldn't get the scent out of my mind. "Rina, are you ok?" Arrow asked looking concerned. "What? Oh yeah, I'm ok," I replied. I didn't want to bring up the familiarity of the scent. I tried to forget it but despite having both of my mates snuggled in with me, I couldn't get it out of my mind. "Have the warriors found anything?" I asked not sure if I wanted a yes or no answer. "They haven't found anything. It's like they are searching for a ghost," Arrow grumbled. I sighed, nothing seemed to be alright. I was tired of feeling scared and worried, I should be happy. I have my mates, we are having our pups, and we will be telling everyone our happy news soon. No matter how much I tried, I could not shake the creepy feeling. "I am going to go check on the progress," Arrow said as he untangled himself from me. "I don't want to leave Rina b
When I woke up, I could still smell the four she-wolves Matt had brought here, I wrinkled my nose at the scent of stale alcohol and way too much cheap perfume. I went to the sink, filling my glass with cold water, I felt eyes on my back. I looked over my shoulder to see Matt leaning on the kitchen island. "Good morning," I greeted him, I was still aggravated about last night but didn't want him to know that, yet. "Sorry about last night, I was too drunk to know what was happening," he explained. I didn't answer right away. I turned to face him, "I don't understand you," I said honestly. "You know your friends are with me, but you try to undermine our relationship and our bond every chance you get," I wanted him to explain himself."You're right," he sighed. "I wanted to go back to a time when things were simpler. Taking over as Alpha is a big deal," he looked down at his hands. I looked at him to find sincerity on his usually cocky face. "Becoming Alpha is a big deal, but you are t
I ate my breakfast as the twins and Matt caught up. It was interesting to hear about the adventures they had shared. They had done a lot more together than I had expected. “It sounds like you had a lot of fun when you were together all the time,” I commented. “Yeah, we were as thick as thieves,” Matt chuckled. “Hey, what happened with you two, and that shy little wolf you always talked about? Did you ever make a move before you found her?” he asked looking in my direction.“You could say that,” Arrow chucked. “Rina is the shy little wolf we always talked about,” Arion answered. “So that little wolf was your mate that whole time?” Matt chuckled.“Yup, she is one and the same,” Arrow smiled putting his arm over my shoulders. Matt looked surprised, “Man, I still can’t believe the famous lady killer twins are not only mated but having pups! There must be a lot of jealous females out there.” He chuckled as he took a bite.I smiled uneasily, I knew he was right. I never thought in a mill
