"I'm sorry, Uncle Khalid…" 

"Serena, you are my son's mate, you can call me father," Khalid said. 

There was an uncomfortable silence after that statement. The mated pair knew Serena was their eldest mate, but the younger ones were unaware of it.

"I know," Serena replied, her voice still scratchy from the way Rooka almost choked her. She cannot fault him with that. It was her stupid behavior that made him be on a defensive mode, still, it was not right to shout at his parents too.

Wayne on the other hand was mad as hell. He was aware of his brother's pain, he understood where he was coming from. But to lose control and hurt Serena?

    Khalid wanted to talk to his sons but his mate stopped him. They were grown men, and if they want to ht each other senseless, he should let them. He sighed, Rooka and Wayne might not be blood brothers, but the love between them was strong. “My love,” Seraphina said, “Rooka was not expecting Serena to be alive. The bond snapped, and we cannot blame him for the anger he had shown. If you were in his shoes what would you feel?” Khalid was silent, the thought of losing his mate drove him crazy, he took a deep breath and said, “I would have done the same thing.” “You should then understand what he went through,” Seraphina looked at the two women on the sofa. One was sporting a dark bruise on her neck, while the other one looked like she wanted to kill someone. “Serena

    There was a stillness in the air that alerted Rooka and Serena. The wind stopped blowing, and every living creature stopped making any kind of sounds. The two Alpha were aware that something was about to happen, both senses were on high alert.Anyone who would see them would think they were just out for a normal scenic hike, and the way Serena sat on Rooka’s lap would think there was more to it. However, it was not the case.The minute the wind suddenly died meant a predator was near. In this case, it was more than one. At least thirty men clad in black SWAT-like clothes were slowly surrounding the Alpha pair. Each of them was carrying a double-edged sword on their back. They might be Weres but without some kind of extra boost, they wouldn't be able to transform any part of their body.

    Rooka hated using this particular ability. To anyone who had watched, 'Avatar, The Last Airbender,' would tag him like a goddamned 'earthbender.'He wasn't.The ability to manipulate the earth was an ancient form of battle that was passed down from one son to another. Wayne could also do the ability but, since he was not a direct descendant of their line, he could only do the basic forms.Like Alter Beings, certain Were Beings could wield power; however, this said power chose their bearer. It was nature's way of controlling her people. Whatever they also had would be taken away from them the moment darkness began to cover their hearts the ability would vanish.Rooka could feel Serena as she watched his movements, from the way he whipped his feet across the ground to the sudden appearance of the spikes that impaled their opponent. He could feel her fear, and he couldn’t blame her.

    There was a party and Serena was nowhere to be seen. Megan was not surprised, after all, there was a letter that needed to be read, and what better person to read it with was her mate.Rooka.She sighed. She was happy, happy that her best friend had a man. A man, she might add was sex on a stick, but, with what Serena had been through, was telling her that he was her mate the right thing?A plate of food was placed in front, the next thing she knew, Wayne and Rowena were sitting on either side of her. She glared at Wayne, but smiled at Rowena, he laughed and sat comfortably next to her. Megan was still glaring at him, but inwardly, she was happy. Somehow, something inside her was warming up...Was it good? Maybe. Will it bloom? That was the question…

    Serena's face heated when she saw Rooka's bed. It was black and made of silk. Just like her premonition. What her premonition failed to show her was the size of the bed. It was big. They were naked, both trying to touch, both moaning in pleasure… She quickly walked to the kitchen and washed her face. The flashes were getting hotter and she was getting flustered. She was no virgin, but the two sexual experiences she had, was nothing compared to this. And the man had kissed her once! Is this how it feels to have a mate? Serena asked herself. The strong emotional connection they had was something she couldn't deny. It was like Rooka was so aware of her very needs that a simple touch alleviated all her fears. And she, in return, calmed the wolf trying to seek vengeance for her sake. It was crazy...but it felt right. Her rumbling stomach broke her inner mus

    Serena's heart was beating too fast, and Rooka knew without a doubt knew that he was the cause. She expected smugness, and arrogance when she opened her eyes. But there was none.Tenderness.Desire.Love.She wanted to pull back, to forget all the emotions she saw, but he was not letting her."Don't," he whispered. "Don't hide, Serena. You don't have to be afraid of this. Of us.""I know, Rooka," she opened her eyes and looked at him.Tears were starting to gather at the corner of her eyes, so he kissed them. Lingering a bit to let her feel his affection. Once

    The warm water felt good against her skin. After an afternoon of tears, a twilight fight, cooking, what she was doing was a blessing. Her face turned red when she remembered what happened in the kitchen.He was just kissing my neck. She had never had such an intense reaction, and her climax caught her off guard. Yet, when she was finished, Rooka held her until the waves died down. He was not even smug about it. But his words? Thinking about the way he said it made her wet…and she was in the shower. The urge to stroke herself was there, but no. This time…Serena stepped out of the bathroom and wore Rooka's shirt. The towel she was using was still damn from his shower. She couldn't help but bury her face and inhale his scent. She laughed when she saw the hamper, it was

    Rooka knew that something was wrong.The bond he has with Serena may be new, but she has always been part of his soul. Even when he felt her die, somehow, a small shard must have been left behind.“Rooka, you okay?” asked Wayne. They were having coffee at Hotel Fairmont Monte-Carlo, where they would be staying until the time of the race. It would be a four-day event together with the Gala.“Serena,” was all he said.Wayne was silent while he looked at the Mediterranean Sea. The sun was hiding behind the clouds, giving them a good view.“Something’s wrong?” all Wayne got for the other man was a nod. He waited. Knowing his brother’s way of thinking; he needed to organize his thoughts before speaking whatever was in his mind.“Serena dreamt of Megan dying.”The word dying made Wayne’s inside turn cold. He reached for his phone before remembering that he did not even have the woman’s number. He was about to grab Rooka’s phone but he stopped mid-way when he glanced at his brother.He was s

    Looking at the four noisy people eating at the balcony of the café, no one would think one of them nearly died.The canapés, pastries, teas, juice, and carafe of coffee in front of them, made every patron wonder if they consumed everything. They DID eat everything, but it was a slow process.Megan was enjoying her raspberry cheesecake while having a cup of cold Americano. Serena was having the last slice of the Key Lime pie they had, with a tall glass, yes, a glass of affogato.The proprietor was horrified by the request, yet when he served the drink and saw the delight of the woman, he could not feel anything but joy.The twins were sharing a banana sundae with a cup of espresso.A normal human would hole up and cry. They would not even set foot outside for years. But Megan and Serena? They were the opposite.“Bhe, sasabihin mo ba kay Wayne?” asked Serena.[Bhe, should I tell Wayne what happened?]“Gago ka ba!

    Megan saw her life flash before her eyes.Flash. A woman’s voice was heard singing in the room. Megan remembered that sweet voice. It was her mother. She was the sun that lit up their household. No matter how difficult things had become, she was the beacon of light.Flash. The sadness she left when she died of a car accident. She was hit because of her. Her mom died because of her. Just for a stupid cola. Now, she will never hear her sweet voice, she will never feel her gentle touch, and the light will forever be gone from their house.Flash. Meeting Serena for the first time. She looked so brave punching the kid who had been bullying her ever since the first day at school.Flash. Her first kiss. The first time she gave her body, soul, and love to a man, only to be broken after two months.Wayne.“I’m sorry,” she whispered.Megan’s body never hit the ground though.Layla had somehow found a way to save her. The minute they touched the ground, Megan could not help but broke into tears.

    "Sino…ba…ang…nag…aya…dito?!" [Who..the..fuck…wanted…to…be here?!] Megan asked, as she struggled to catch her breath.Rena was too tired to answer her. All of them wanted to visit the tower. Each of them had been on the top of the deck before. But never like this.It was a slow day, and somehow, Nuru had pulled some strings so they could have the place for themselves. Serena and Megan were expecting they will be using the elevator to go up…not the fucking stairs. “How long till we get there?” asked Serena. She was breathless, but not as much as Megan. Both were sweating, and their muscles were sore. Nuru on the other hand looked like he was taking a stroll in the park. "Another fifteen minutes or so…" Nuru replied. Then he looked down, he was at least three levels higher than them. "With the rate the two of you are going, it will be nightfall before we get there!" Serena shook her head, and looked below. It was the worst decision she had ever made now. Nausea caused her to suddenly

    "Are you okay, Rena?" Nuru asked. The sudden questions made Serena smile. Nuru was the troublemaker in the group for him to notice something wrong was so, rare. "Trouble in paradise?" he added. Nuru, Layla, Megan, and Serena were still at the hotel. They were still trying to figure out what they were going to do for the day. Something was off with the alpha pair, it was suitable, but it was there. He had known Rooka for a long time, and even though they were the same age as the Rowena, Rooka had always been for there younger pack member. He may be the leader, but Nuru was their elder brother. So, the tension between them was affecting them too. "I'm okay, Nuru. Try not to worry too much about me. I just had too much new shit that has been happening. With our bond rebuilding, it kinda overpowers everything." Serena replied. Exhaustion could be heard in her voice, a clear sign that she was not resting that much. Bedside, Rooka was rather demanding. "Yeah, all the sex…" Megan said in

    "Dragons?" That was all Megan could say. The idea that dragons were real was amazing, and … surreal. To think that dragons are real was something no one has ever thought possible. "Yes, bhe, dragons." Serena replied. There was a teasing tone in her voice. She and Megan had this fascination on dragon. It was a no brainer that she read books that are based on dragons. For Serena, they were mystical. Knowing that they do exists was something close to having her own fairy tale. "So, your seal is broken. The kids are awake, and then what?" Asked Wayne. There was a note of skepticism in his voice. "We let them be with them," Serena replied. She was looking down at the busy streets of Paris. But her mind was over the things that she learned. Fae, dragons, and children that can destroy the world. And she has a mate. Serena sighed. She may have Rooka, but she cannot help but feel something was missing. Like a puzzle piece that was there but cannot never have that right slot to fit into.

    Paris was one of those cities that Serena enjoyed visiting with her family. This was the first trip to her favorite place without them. And the first one as the Alpha of the Asian Region. With Megan beside her, they strolled inside the lobby of Europe Hotel Paris Eiffel. When they reached the front desk, they were greeted with a smile. “Welcome back, Sir Rooka,” the woman behind the desk said with a warm smile. “Here is the key to your suite, will there be anything else?”Serena and Megan could not help but look at Rooka, he smiled and pulled Serena. “Yes,” he told the woman, “is there name under Daire in your records?” he asked. An absent-minded kiss was dropped on her forehead. Then he whispered, “you okay?”Serena nodded. There was something about this particular apartment that made her feel nostalgic. She got her answer when the receptionist said, “Yes, there is. The room next to yours Sir Rooka is named for Serena Daire.” Serena closed her eyes. They

    "Zahir, is that you?" Khalid asked. He and his mate just got back from the airport to say goodbye to their sons. They were not worried, but as a parent, they made sure to see them off, even if the trip would be a day or two. The young man in question, removed his shades and smiled at the older man. Silver-green eyes, met whiskey-colored ones, the same shade of eyes just like his son. "Uncle Khalid," Zahir greeted, he bowed and hugged him after. "It's good to see you again." Khalid, patted his back before touching their foreheads, for a quick prayer. Once that was done, Zahir looked at Seraphina and kissed her checks. "Your

    "We will be landing at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport in about eight hours."Ted said via the overhead speaker. They were in the air again, after a two-day stopover at Dahab, they were once again, on their way to the Werewolf Nation stronghold in Scotland. However, they need to attend the Annual Pantera Gala in Monaco. They were headed to Paris because Rowena’s friend was a prominent designer and will be having a runway show. It was, after all, Fashion Week. Serena was looking out the window, while Rooka was on the other side of the plane, doing whatever a CEO does. Wayne, Nuru, and Kaz were also busy reading business reports. Layla was in the cockpit with the bears, and Megan was sitting across Serena reading a book. The only Sparks with them was Lem, who was sitting on the other side of the window where Rena was. “Is there something wrong princess?” asked Lem.“Why do you call me ‘Princess?'"“Because you are.”“How?”Lem was qui
