ZION
Tina was laying on my chest after our beautiful love making session. She was pure and she gave herself to me. I still could not believe she did that. I knew she wanted me as much as I wanted her. She gave me the most precious thing to her. That made me want her even more than I did before. Jake will have to forgive me, but I was not going to let her go, not after this.
Her phone wrang, she looked at me, and I nodded. She got up from my chest and went to search her clothes her it and answered. “Mom?” that was what she said when she answered, and I hoped everything was alright with her mother. Aiden was there and I could not put anything past him. That lady was grieving and angry.
She might want to take her anger out on Aiden, but he was not me, he was not going to tolerate being belittled, cursed, and called names. Tina turned to look at me, she looked worried, and I sat up. “What is it?” I asked and she swallowed har
ZIONI only glanced at Jake when he mentioned summer camp, I was worried about the same thing when that woman said they have him. But I could admit that to Jake, the fact is, we didn’t know what we were going to find when we got there. “I don’t know.” I told him then looked out the window.Summer camp, on our last year of high school we went on a summer camp. It was a training camp for all the alpha’s children. They organized different instructors to train us on different fighting skills. My father didn’t only send me on that camp. He sent all three of us. Me, Jake, and Aiden. He said we were all going to be leaders of the pack and that we should all learn to protect ourselves and the pack.When we got to summer camp, Jake blended in nicely and quickly with everyone. Let’s face it, Jake was a people person and got along with everyone. The fact that he was a gamma didn’t even come up and everyone ju
ZIONI kept my mouth shut the rest of the way because Jake was driving me insane. He was right about everything, and we both knew that. There was no need for him to continue reminding me of it. I knew Aiden will feel betrayed when this comes out, but I also know that he was going to give me his blessings.He didn’t want Tina, but I did. I loved her and wanted a future with her. Aiden wanted me to be happy and yes, he was going to be angry at first, but he will come around. At least that is what I would like to believe. I did not want to think about a scenario where my brother and I are at odds with each other.We have come a long way to let that happen. But my actions might just be the thing that drives a wedge between us. “What do I do?” I asked now getting closer to the Moon pack. We could see the pack gate from where we were. “You know what to do Zion, you just don’t want to do it.” He was right, I knew what needed to be done but I just could not bring myself to do it.I pushed my
ZIONI stopped walking when he said that. I had forgotten that I did not even take a shower before coming here and Jake told me I smelled of sex and her. I didn’t think anything of it since we were in a hurry to get here. I glanced at Jake, and he just shrugged like he was saying I was on my own. “Why are you just standing there, do you want to shower before we go home?”I chuckled shaking my head then took a few steps towards him with Jake following. “No, I don’t want to be here any longer, I think going back is a good idea.” I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding. Jake raised an eyebrow but said nothing.“So, when are you going to come back here?” Jake asked and I wondered why he was delaying our departure. “In four days or five, it will depend on my moon and when I think they have learned that I am their alpha and that there is nothing any of them can do to change that.” He answered then walked out leaving us standing there.“You know what that means right?” I knew exactly
AIDENI watched as Zion tried to change the subject and not talk about who he has been sleeping with. Usually when he is involved with someone, he can’t wait to tell me all about it. But now he was being secretive, which made me wonder what was special about this she-wolf.But I didn’t call him out on it, instead, I entertained what he was saying. “What made you want to throw a mating ball, are you looking for your mate?” he shook his head too quickly like finding his mate didn’t matter. “Not that but it had been decades since we last had one and that has made it difficult for most of us to find our mates.”He sighed; I knew where he was coming from. All the social gatherings like that were stopped because of alpha Harold and now that he was gone. Everyone could go back to normal, living normal lives like attending gatherings like the mating ball Zion was talking about.“For example, if we didn’t go to the Moon pack that day then you wouldn’t have found your mate. Don’t get angry its
AIDENI stood there fuming in anger, not because my mate was sleeping with my brother or because I had feeling for her. No, but because my brother didn’t tell me about it. Was he in love with her or was this a game. I needed I know what this was to him. Was he helping me punish her, using her then leaving her because of everything her family did to me, to all of us?I doubt that is the case, because if it was, he would have told me about what he was doing. Let me in on his plan. But he didn’t and it makes me doubt he was playing games with her. The smile on his face when I told him that I wanted nothing to do with her. He was happy that I didn’t want her. he was happy because he is in love with her.I chuckled; they must think I am a fool. An omega greeted and passed but I called her back. “Yes, beta Aiden.” I looked at her but not at her. I was thinking while my eyes were on her. “Who is in charge of my mate?” I know Zion assigned an omega to her from the first day she got here. “It’
AIDENI didn’t want to attend the damn mating ball, but I had to. I am the beta of the pack hosting the damn thing and the turnout is good. Many people have arrived already, and the venue looks beautiful. They have done a great job with the preparations and am sure the people attending were happy to get out of their packs for the first time in a long time. And they got an excuse to dress up.I was still getting dressed in my room, I had to make sure that the security is sorted before everything else, we were responsible for many people after all, and we cannot risk anything happening. Someone knocked on my door and before I could invite them in, the door opened, and the person came in.It was Zion. I didn’t say a thing, I just continued to dress, he and I have nothing much to talk about these days since he is making a fool out of me and sleeping with that woman every chance he gets. “Brother, you are not done? Jake is asking for us, he says he is tired of smiling and receiving people
ZIONI was planning on standing at the door with Aiden receiving our guests. But as soon as we got there, I caught this intoxicating scent, I tried to ignore it but it was impossible to. I asked if Aiden and the old man could smell it too, but they didn’t. My wolf was restless all of a sudden coming to life and giving me a headache.I was worried about security and if his excitement meant we had a problem. Then I needed to know what that problem was and deal with it as soon as possible. I walked away from Aiden and the old man when they said they didn’t smell anything. I could not just sit still and do nothing. I followed the scent all the way to the dance floor and there she was.Beautiful long blond hair that sat right on top of a butt. Long legs, fair skin, she was gorgeous. She must have smelled my scent because she turned and looked in my directions. Our eyes locked and the world stopped. The people faded away and it seemed like
AIDENMy mate looked like she was going to die and even wanted to go and intervene when Zion found his mate. But of course, I stopped her right in time before she made a fool of herself and me in the process. But it was clear that my brother had deep feelings for my mate. The way he looked when she disappeared, he wanted to go after her.Zion was playing with fire, but it was good to watch him in this predicament. I wanted to see how long he was going to hide his affair with my mate from his and what he was going to do when she found out about them. Oh Broke, I feel sorry for you. That smile of yours will soon turn into a frown and I can’t wait to see what you are going to do about that.“Brother, why don’t you go call your mate. I want to introduce her to Broke here.” Sly fox you, Zion. You must think me a fool brother, but I am not. Far from it. “There is plenty of time for that brother, Broke will be moving here soon and they can meet. Right now, I want you to enjoy your moment. Yo
ZIONWe stood there glaring at each other then she turned and walked away. I released a breath I didn’t know I was holding. “You are letting her go, just like that? wow!” I didn’t know when Brook got there or how much she heard. But when I turned to look at her and explain. She was already closing the door to her car.I got into mine then sped to the gate and blocked her way. I couldn’t let her go without explaining myself. I have already disappointed her enough and I couldn’t afford to disappoint her again. She hasn’t even officially told me about her pregnancy yet and I didn’t want to miss the chance to be there for her.She got out of the car looking pissed, I regretted making her angry, but I was not about to let her go without explaining to her what happened. I needed her to hear me out and understand. I didn’t want her to have the wrong idea about that woman and I. If I let her leave right now, then that was exactly what was going to happened.“Move out of my way Zion.” She was
ZIONI have been working like a dog the past week. I asked to be released from the hospital because I couldn’t do some of the things while laying on the hospital bed. I needed to go to the Blood Moon pack so the builders could come and assess the situation before sending be quotes for everything.When I got to the Blood Moon pack, or shall I say, what used to be my home. My heart broke. The damage was greater than I anticipated. I thought only a few houses, the packhouse and hospital burnt. But I was wrong, the fire had no mercy, it destroyed almost everything. My home was now nothing, but ruins and I did that.Sitting there waiting for those people I tried to think of a reason why I was so blinded and stupid. Aiden was never blind when it came to her, he saw her for who she really was and kept his distance. I, on the other hand, thought he was being cruel, and I felt sorry for her.I don’t know when I started developing feelings for her and wanting to protect her. I got injured and a
ZIONIt broke my heart that my brother didn’t even come into my ward to see me. I know I have wronged him, in so many ways and I regretted everything I did to him. I wanted to apologize to him, I wanted to tell him that I was wrong. But I guess he was so angry that he didn’t even want to talk to me. it hurt.Not more than my mate cringing and standing at a distant from me as if I was a monster. I wanted to talk to her too. To tell her that I heard what she said, I wanted to confirm that she was pregnant, but she too didn’t come into my ward after the doctor removed the tubes.My heart broke, I have been a fool who thought he was in love and look where that got me. I almost died protecting her and where was she now? Thinking about it made me angry, not at anyone but myself. I let this happen to me all in the name of love.The door opened and I opened my eyes thinking it was Brook. Only to find the doctor. “I am sorry to wake you alpha, I am only here to check on you.” I just nodded and
BROOKI have been by his side for over a week now. Talking to him and telling him about my pregnancy and how I didn’t want him to die. I was losing hope of him ever waking up and it hurt to think about my child not meeting him. He has done so many hurtful things to me, but my child deserved to know him.He is a good man who followed his heart. How can I blame him for that? it hurt, yes, but how can I fault him when he was doing what I would have done myself if I was in his shoes? I understood that but it didn’t mean I was not hurt.I was and deeply. He is my mate, and he was supposed to love me and only me. forsaking all others and focusing on me alone. That is the point of having a mate, but mine didn’t. he fell in love with his brother’s mate. What was that? it brought shame to me and made me feel like I am not enough.That thought alone scared me. I was talking to him about going to my father’s pack for a while, that I needed a break when his eyelashes flattered, and he opened his
AIDENHe looked at me with so much hatred, if he had his way, I would be dead by now. But he knew that he didn’t stand a chance, not alone at least. He glared at me intensely and I looked at him with a smirk on my face. He was nothing to me and I am going to show him and his buddies not to mess with this alpha.He saw I was not budging, and my warriors were about to disappear. “Wait! Call them back, I will call everyone and tell them to come here like you want.” I smiled, good boy. “You can call them, but I will not stop them from bringing your sister. Let’s just say she is my insurance policy in case you decide to double cross me.”The hatred in his eyes was too much, I am sure he was wishing I was dead. “Don’t lay a finger on her, even after you kill me. Promise me that.” I laughed. The boy still thinks he has a say on what I do and don’t do. He doesn’t tell me what to do in my own pack.“You are in no position to ask me for anything. But, if you behave, I will think about it. She i
AIDENThere is nothing I hate more than being looked down upon. I am not weak like my father was and people looking down on me and underestimating me just drives me insane. That woman had the audacity to send someone into my pack because she thought I was not going to be here.Why does it matter if I am here or not? My pack should not be a place where anyone can just come into. The mention of Moon pack should strike fear into people’s hearts. They should think twice about coming here for any reason. But she dared send someone here and he agreed because of the amount of money he was paid?That is a joke, I am a joke. No amount of money should influence anyone to dare try anything in this pack, but it did with that man, that means they don’t fear me enough. “Where is that man?” I sent a mind link to my warriors now feeling more pissed than before. Thinking about it now, it made me angry.“He is still here, alpha. But we are sending him out now.”“Don’t send him out, bring him to me.” he
AIDENA week has passed since the incident. Brook looked like the shadow of herself. She literally lived in the hospital, showing and eating there. She didn’t want to leave Zion’s side. My search for that vile, evil woman continues. My warriors promised that they have left word on the streets about her mother, but she still had not shown.I was busy running the biggest pack in the region and I didn’t have time for anything else. I last saw Zion three days ago. I didn’t have time; I was too busy trying to rebuild the Blood Moon pack and run the Moon Pack at the same time. It was too much. I woke up in the early hours of the morning and slept late at night.“Alpha, we caught someone at the border, we are bringing him there.” A mind link came through from one of my warriors. “Take him to the dungeons and tell me when you get there.” I wondered who could that person be and what the hell was he doing trespassing in Moon Pack lands.My mind went to that woman, could she have heard what I di
AIDENShe lifted her head high and looked me in the eyes. I squinted my eyes hoping to the goddess she has the sense not to repeat what she said. But I was fooling myself because she opened her mouth and spoke. “They have done it to us, they made fools of us and had an affair right under our noses. Why can’t we do the same? But unlike them, we don’t have to hide it.”I looked at the woman trying to see if I could ever do something like that, but nothing happened. I was not attracted to her in anyway. Maybe because I was not Zion, and I didn’t want what was not mine.“Listen here and listen well. Just because my brother could open his zipper for my mate, doesn’t mean I should do the same. We are not the same and I could never do something like that with you. so, don’t you ever mention something like this to me again.” I was harsh and my words cold.I didn’t want for her to respond
AIDENI watched as the doctors wheeled my brother away and I could not help but feel helpless. I blamed myself as well for what happened to him. If I had just given him my blessing to be with that woman. Maybe none of this would have happened. He would have been safe and happy. But I had to be stubborn about everything.“Why didn’t you stop it?” asked Brook who was walking beside me, making sure that I was going to the hospital to get checked out. I didn’t know why she wanted to do that when she knew that I would be healed by now. Even though I would be left with nasty scars from the fire.“What are you talking about?” I felt sorry for her, it must feel really bad being mated to a man whose heart belonged to another. Let alone being pregnant for him and finding out that he was grieving the loss of his first child.I admired her strength and courage. If I was the one going through what she was going through, I don’t think I would have been able to help. I would have gone crazy and watc
