Rage boiled within me as I stormed into Oracle Sage's room, my heart pounding with fury and desperation. How could she, with all her supposed foresight, not have foreseen something as catastrophic as Mathew's disappearance? "I'll kill you!" I screamed, my voice laced with venom as I lunged towards her, intent on exacting revenge for my son's vanishing. As I charged towards Sage, ready to rip her head off her body, she remained eerily calm, her expression unfazed by my accusation. In spite of my rage-fueled advance, she stood her ground, her demeanor unaffected. But before I could reach her, strong arms wrapped around me, pulling me back with a force that halted my advance. Alpha Dominic's firm hold restrained me. His touch provided some sense of peace in the midst of my raging fury, keeping me grounded in reality and keeping me from giving in to the darkness of retribution. The thought of ripping Sage's head off her body feeling calm to me. As I struggled against my mate's firm
Frustration tightened its grasp as I paced back and forth in the conference room. I could feel the anxiety and uncertainty eating away at my heart with every step I took. Sitting close by, engrossed in a discussion, were Alpha Scott and Alpha Dominic.I refused to stop worrying about my, Mathew. The thought of him out there by himself, exposed, was too much for me to handle. Not knowing where he was or what danger he might be in, I felt so powerless that tears threatened to fall from my eyes.He was only three!With each passing moment, my frustration grew, a flood of emotions threatening to overwhelm me. All I wanted was for Mathew to be back with us, safe and sound. But until then, all I could do was wait and pray for his return.Even know it felt hard to digest. Lucas's revelation struck me like a ton of bricks, leaving me stunned and incredulous. How could Sage, Alpha Scott's pack trusted oracle, betray us in such a vile way? It seemed impossible to consider that she had been Luca
Third party pov Sage's thoughts drifted to her mate, Alpha Lucas, as she stood in his bedroom looking out the window. Despite her efforts to quell the feelings that stirred within her, she couldn't deny the inexplicable pull she felt towards him. It was a bond forged by the Moon-goddess, one that she had tried tirelessly to break, yet it only seemed to grow stronger. Sage's mind wandered back to the day she had found out that Alpha Lucas was her mate. She had never imagined herself bound to a notorious wolf. Yet the moongoddess had other plans, intertwining their destinies in a way that she could never have anticipated. She had always dreamed of finding true love, of experiencing the kind of deep connection that transcended time and space. But now, her heart beat for the very wolf she had once despised—a cruel twist of fate that left her feeling conflicted and lost. The sound of approaching footsteps drew her attention, and she tensed as Alpha Lucas appeared behind her, his arms
Linda's PovI lie in bed, my heart heavy as I watch my true mate, Oliver, an omega from our pack, sleeping peacefully beside me. It's agonizing to see him so serene when inside, I'm torn apart. Just days ago, I thought Alpha Dominic was the one destined for me, but now, here lies my true mate.I think it's weird how the Moon Goddess paired me, a beta, with an omega, and yet, despite my higher rank, he treats me with contempt.Upon my mate knocking on my door, my memories of Alpha Dominic seemingly became vague to me, the one I thought would be mine. His rejection had shattered me, especially when he found Freya, his true mate but now it felt like nothing. But now, my own mate looks down on me for being the Alpha's discarded lover as he would call me, a stigma he can't seem to let go of even though I've made it clear multiple times that Alpha Dominic and I were never intimate.The group's rejection of me throws a dark cloud over me; their mocking murmurs and disdainful looks make me
Alpha Dominic's PovI made my way to Linda's quarters. My thoughts were consumed by my son who was now missing. Every fiber of my being urged me to keep Freya close, to protect her from any potential harm while I searched for our child.My wolf snarled viciously to bind her to our bed, to ensure her protection while it ventured out in search of our child.But as much as my wolf clamored for her safety, I knew Freya was more than capable of defending herself. She possessed remarkable knowledge and abilities that surpassed even my own, and I trusted her to hold her ground while she was about to leave.Still, the ache in my chest grew with every step away from her side along with my son being far away from me. The instinct to keep her close, to shield her from any danger.I forced myself to focus on the task at hand, pushing aside my own fears and insecurities for the sake of our family.Coming across Linda's home I barged in without knocking, the sight before me caught me off guard.The
As I shifted into my white wolf form, a sense of power and freedom washed over me. Strutting around before Dominic, I could feel the eyes of the pack on me, their gasps and praises ringing in my ears. They marveled at the sight of their Luna transformed into a pure white wolf, a symbol of strength and purity.But it was Dominic's reaction that mattered most to me. As I caught sight of the shock and awe in his eyes, mixed with that of pride for me. He was left speechless, his gaze locked on me with a mixture of adoration and admiration.Dominic, stooped down to my level, his blue eyes in awe, his hand gently stroking my white fur as he mouthed the word "beautiful."A soft purr escaped me as his touch sent shivers down my spine. Despite the seriousness of our situation, his simple gesture filled me with warmth and reassurance."I'll give you two a minute." Alpha Scott smiled, walking away along with Michael and a few others."This was the reason you decided to ride on top of me, with o
Third party povOracle Sage crept into the room where Mathew was being held captive, her heart ached at the sight of the young child tied up and helpless. She knew she had to act quickly to save him from any further harm."I will take over feeding the child, you may leave." I ordered.With a commanding tone, the Oracle Sage ordered the pack warrior out of the room, her voice brooking no argument.She couldn't risk any interference as she moved to take matters into her own hands.Ignoring Alpha Lucas's protests, the Oracle Sage approached Mathew and untied him. She would not allow her mate to carry out his twisted plan, no matter the cost.As the pack warrior reluctantly left the room, Oracle Sage approached Mathew, her movements gentle as she began to untie him from his restraints. She could see the fear and confusion in his eyes, but she knew she had to remain calm and reassuring.Alpha Lucas and his pack members were planning to withdraw blood from Mathew and insert it into his vein
We raced through the woods in our wolf forms, I was going back home to my mate. Now I could finally focus and finding my son.We needed to return home, to find out if Alpha Dominic had located the white witch or Mathew.I was determined to go home, but I was unable to get rid of the uneasy sensation that was eating away at me. With every step I took, a throbbing discomfort throbbed through my body and my limbs felt heavy.With each passing moment, the unease grew, until it became impossible to ignore. I slowed my pace, feeling a sense of weakness creeping over me."Are you okay, Freya?" Alpha Scott asked, concern lacing his voice.I tried to muster a reassuring smile, but the effort felt like too much. "I... I'm not sure," I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper.The others slowed their pace to match mine, their concern evident in their eyes.We pressed on through the woods, my emotions swirled chaotically within me, leaving me feeling overwhelmed and confused. One moment, I felt
Epilogue4 years later.......I woke up with a long, satisfying stretch, my muscles still languid from sleep. The sheets shifted beneath me, cooler than I expected. I blinked, reaching out, but the bed was empty—no sign of Ryan or Dylan. My lips tugged into a frown as I shifted under the covers, feeling the tender soreness between my thighs. The memory of our earlier intimacy washed over me, making me bite my lip as my face warmed with the thought.With a soft sigh, I pushed myself up looking at the wall clock. When I saw the time, my frown deepened. Seven at night? How had I slept this long? Where were they?I hurried to get dressed, still wondering where the twins were, when I stepped out of the room only to be immediately swept into Dylan’s arms. His lips claimed mine without warning, his kiss teasing and full of that familiar possessiveness. I barely had time to process before he pulled away, smirking down at me."How are you?" he asked."Good now that I'm able to locate at least
The waiting is excruciating. Jessica and I sit side by side in the clinic, both of us fidgeting nervously as we await our blood test results. When the nurse finally hands us our envelopes, I feel like I might throw up from the anticipation.Jessica opens hers first. I watch her face intently, my heart pounding in my chest. Then, a smile breaks across her face.“I’m clear,” she says, relief evident in her voice. “No toxins.”I let out a breath I didn’t realize I’d been holding. “Oh, thank goodness,” I say, genuinely happy for her.Jessica and Morgan embrace, their joy evident. With trembling hands, I open my own envelope. My eyes scan the paper, searching for the results. And there it is – no toxins detected. A wave of relief washes over me so intensely that I feel lightheaded for a moment.“I’m clear too,” I announce, my voice barely above a whisper.Eager to share the good news with Ryan and Dylan, I get to my feet. But as I look around, I don’t see them in the clinic. Stepping out i
Dylan pulls me closer, his fingers brushing over the curve of my hip. A soft gasp escapes me, but I stay silent, caught between them. They know exactly what they’re doing—teasing, making me crave more.His lips find my neck, leaving a trail of heat as Ryan’s hand slips between my thighs. My pulse quickens, and a shiver runs down my spine as their touches grow more insistent.“You’re so wet already,” Ryan mutters, his breath hot against my ear. “And we haven’t even started.”I can barely breathe as their hands work together, stripping me bare, leaving me exposed to their touch. The nightdress slips away, and the cool air hits my skin, but it’s nothing compared to the heat of their bodies pressing against mine. I can feel Dylan’s growing hardness behind me as Ryan’s fingers dip lower, sliding between my slick folds.Ryan’s hand grips my chin, forcing me to meet his eyes as he strokes his hardness against my wetness. “Open that pretty mouth, Lily.”I obey, parting my lips as he slides hi
Night has fallen, and I stand in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. The nightdress I’ve chosen is skimpy—practically scandalous. The soft, silky fabric barely reaches mid-thigh, and the neckline plunges just enough to be provocative without being too obvious. A mischievous smile tugs at my lips as I run my hands over the material, smoothing it out.It’s definitely not the kind of outfit someone worried about abstinence would wear. But hey, I’m just getting ready for bed—nothing more, nothing less.The two men sat up in bed, seemingly preoccupied. Their eyes sparing me no glance. I slip into the bed with a deliberate slowness, the cool silk of my skimpy nightdress brushing against my skin. It clings in all the right places, barely covering anything. The plunging neckline and dangerously short hem are no accident. I settle between Ryan and Dylan, now feeling their intense gazes on me, pretending to be utterly oblivious.“Comfortable?” Alpha Dylan asks, his voice filled with
I settle back down on the exam table, looking between Ryan and Dylan with a mix of confusion and annoyance.“Okay, what exactly is going on here? What kind of mission were you two on that has you thinking I’m pregnant?” I ask, crossing my arms over my chest.Ryan and Dylan exchange a glance but ignore my question, their focus shifting to the doctor. Their dismissiveness stings, fueling my growing annoyance. I narrow my eyes at them.“I’m not doing any pregnancy test!” I declare, turning on my heel to leave. But I don’t make it far. In an instant, Dylan’s hand wraps around my wrist, pulling me back with a firm yet gentle tug. I gasp, spinning around to face them both, my frustration boiling over into something more.....naughty while in Dylan's arm.It was sad how I couldn't think clearly for a second in the arms of my mates.They guide me back to the chair, almost too gently, and I find myself sitting before them again. Their hands are folded, their expressions serious, as if they’re a
Lily’s PovI can’t stop pacing. Back and forth, back and forth across the twins living room floor. My heart races, and I can’t shake this gnawing feeling in my gut. Ryan and Dylan are out there, facing who knows what kind of danger, and I’m stuck here, helpless.“Lily, please try to calm down,” Freya’s gentle voice breaks through my spiraling thoughts. I glance over to where she’s sitting on the couch, little Alice fast asleep against her shoulder. “I can sense that they’re okay. Your abilities are probably just a bit off since you’ve only recently gotten them.”I want to believe her, I really do. But the fear is almost paralyzing, I mean my vision looked so real and it’s already been two days what’s taking them so long? Thalia should be using her teleportation go back and forth plus the dark witches were only of a hundred in number. “What if something’s gone wrong?” I whisper, more to myself than to Freya. “What if the dark witches—”“Have faith in your mates,” Freya cuts in, her ton
Alpha Dylan's PovRyan comes to stand beside me, his expression calm but with that unmistakable glint in his eyes. I catch his gaze, a knowing smirk playing on my lips. “So,” I ask, unable to resist the jab, “did you manage to put Lily to sleep?”Ryan just smirks back, his eyes gleaming with a mix of pride and satisfaction. “What do you think?” he replies, his tone dripping with confidence as he begins to walk off.I can’t help but chuckle, falling in step beside him. It was obvious we both knew exactly how to calm her down. It was only a pity that I wasn't able to be there to assist.“She may not be too happy when she wakes up, though,” Ryan adds, his voice more serious now, though still with that lingering edge of amusement.“Of course not,” I reply, shaking my head with a slight smile. “She’s a stubborn one.”Ryan chuckle, a low sound that rumbles in his chest. “It wouldn’t be too exciting if she weren’t a fighter, would it?”I chuckle along with him, appreciating the truth in his
Before I can catch my breath, he pulls out and flips me onto all fours, his hands firm yet gentle as he positions me on my knees. I barely have time to process what’s happening before he’s thrusting into me from behind, his hands gripping my hips as he takes me again, deeper and harder than before.The new angle sends sparks of pleasure shooting through me, and I gasp, my fingers digging into the sheets as he drives into me with relentless force. The sensation is almost too much, the intense pleasure mingling with the soreness of being taken so thoroughly.“Ryan,” I moan, my voice hoarse from screaming. “Oh, God… yes, please… don’t stop!”He doesn’t. Ryan’s pace is punishing, each thrust sending shockwaves of pleasure through me. I can feel the tension building again, the pressure coiling tight in my stomach as he takes me over and over, pushing me closer and closer to the edge.“Fuck, Lily,” he growls, slapping my ass. “No one apart from my brother and me will ever have you like this
We make our way inside Ryan's lavish home passing the young maid who glares at me in my mate's arms making me smirk at her jealousy which was now obvious.Once we were in his room Alpha Ryan’s grip tightens as he tosses me onto the bed, the force of his possessive nature sending a thrill down my spine. My breath hitches as I land on the soft sheets, heart pounding wildly in my chest. Before I can fully process the moment, Ryan is already on top of me, his weight pressing me into the mattress, making me feel utterly claimed.I realized they seemed to love throwing me onto the bed.His eyes are dark, swirling with a mix of desire and something more primal—something that sends a shiver through my entire being. Ryan’s hand cups my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. “You’re ours, Lily,” he growls, his voice low and rough. “And you don’t ever pull a stunt like that again.”The memory of stripping off my clothes in public flashes in my mind, I bite my lips in a teasing manner watching as his
