AIDENI slowly lifted my head with a smile playing on my lips when Brooke said that. I wondered if she knew about her mate sleeping with mine. I glanced at my brother, and he looked like he just got punched in the gut. If he was honest with me about this then we would have laughed about this the moment Brooke leaves the room.“I…I mean that is the only reason a woman would not want to be with her mate. Not that I know something about that or that she is doing something with anyone. If she was then it would be…” Zion cut her off sternly. “Brooke!” she stopped talking and I wanted to laugh so badly. It was nice to watch my brother flushed like that.“I think I should leave now.” She hurried and left the office. Silence filled the room, and I was not about to break it. I wanted to hear what my cunning brother will say about it. He cleared his throat avoiding eye contact. I looked at him with a smirk on my face trying hard not to laugh. This was better than knowing about him and that woma
ZIONI tried; the Goddess knows I tried. But my brother knew how to push my buttons. When he called her a whore the first time, I held myself back but when he called her a whore the second time, saying she was opening her legs for the whole pack. I lost it, I jumped over my desk and landed on him then punching him repeatedly.I got in a few punches before he held my hands and gave me a deadly look and I knew I messed up. What I did were the actions of a jealous man. I exposed myself. “Don’t you ever lay your hands on me ever again.” His voice was low, stern, and very threatening. I got off him shaking, not in anger but in fright for exposing myself as the man sleeping with his mate.“Am sorry man, but you can be very infuriating sometimes. Why would you call a woman names like that when you have no proof of anything. I know you hated her father, and you hate her for being his daughter but treating her like trash and calling her names because of it, is wrong.” I tried to cover up what
JAKEI was busy in my office when the Luna budged in without knocking. She looked angry. She started pacing back and forth not saying anything. Maybe trying to calm herself down. My first thought was that she found out about what the alpha has been doing. Shit! We only had a few hours before the ball to make her the Luna of the pack.What if she found out is now planning to expose it to everyone, Zion will lose the respect of the alphas and the pack will be embarrassed in front of everyone. Oh, dear goddess, I hope that is not the case. I stood and went to stand in front of her stopping her from pacing. “Luna, what is the matter?” she looked at me.There was a bit of sadness in her eyes, and I prayed she did not say what I thought she was going to say. “That day, that morning when you basically called Aiden’s mate a whore. Do you remember that day?” shit! Zion, what the hell have you done. “Yes, I do. What about it?” I held my breath waiting for her to drop the bomb.“I think you were
TINAJake scared me good. I was sure he was going to do something to me when he dragged me away like that and brought me to the woods. I was scared but then he told me about the fight. I didn’t know what to think. Why would Zion be fighting with his brother like that over me when he has not been to see me in all this time.He told me he needed to focus on his mate and to give him time. He didn’t try to contact me in so long and now he was fighting with his brother over me? when Jeke left I could not help but cry. I heard Zion threaten his gamma because of me. Jake was right, what Zion and I had needed to end. It was getting too dangerous.It was slowly breaking the pack and I could not have that on my conscious. I walked out of the woods, and they were glaring at each other. “I am your alpha, what I am doing is none of your business, so stay out of it.” Zion said but Jake was not backing down. “If you were the alpha I know, you wouldn’t be saying stupid things like that while sleeping
ZION“How hard can it be to find this man? Am sure if you were really looking, you would have found him by now, but I get the feeling that you don’t want me to find him.” Aiden was right, father and I didn’t want him to find alpha Harold, the man was still the same tyrant he was before, and we did not want Aiden anywhere near him.“Aiden, we have known each other since we were ten years old and in all that time, I have not told you any lies and I have kept every promise I have ever made to you. What makes you think I would start telling you lies now?” I was telling him lies, I knew where alpha Harold’s pack was, everyone knew.But since we were children, after father brought Aiden home, he made me promise never to talk about alpha Harold in front of him. I never knew why until he told me, and I swore never to mention the man in front of him. Now my friend and beta was older and wanted his revenge on the alpha.He asked me to help him find him and as a soon to be alpha of this pack. I
AIDENI didn’t understand, I thought they didn’t know alpha Harold. Then how were we going to his pack tomorrow if they didn’t know him? Anger rose from the pit of my stomach when I thought of what that man did to me and my parents.I turned back and went to the alpha’s office. I needed an explanation. I budged in without knocking this time. He sighed. “How did I know you were going to come back here?” he said leaning back on his chair. “Zion told you, huh?” I advance and stand in front of his desk. “How could you keep his whereabouts from me?” I asked.I was angry but I could not show it. Not to him, I had too much respect for the man. He took me in and raised me. “Because I didn’t want to lose a son and I didn’t want Zion to lose a brother. My Luna would have killed me if I dared to put your life in danger. Alpha Harold is a monster Aiden.” I paced in front of his desk.“I know what he did to you is unforgivable, but I ask that you try. If not for yourself then for your people. To k
AIDENMorning came sooner than I expected, but then it was understandable as I spent half the night on the training grounds. I could not sleep, I had too much energy and the thought of meeting that man gave me even more energy. I wondered if he was going to see the resemblance in me with the man he mercilessly killed.I woke up and showered then went downstairs. I found Zion sitting in the dining room looking stressed. “We are not even out the door and yet you look this stressed. I don’t think you will make it out there.” He threw me a glare. “Fuck off! You know I am stressed because of you.” I knew that. But I wanted him to stop stressing.“Don’t stress, I will not do anything stupid. I promised father.” He sighed. The omegas came in and served us food. “If am going to do something then I will tell you first, I wont act without talking to you.” I assured him. “Thank you.” After breakfast we got into the cars and left.He wanted to take more warriors, but I told him that we were not g
AIDENThe excitement in her voice and the happiness on her face could not be missed. She had a huge smile on her face and was even jumping up and down not able to contain herself. All the while the only thing I was looking at, was my mother’s jade necklace that dangled in her long neck as she jumped up and down like a silly schoolgirl.“Aiden, go to mate. Hug her, I want to feel her in our warm embrace.” I scoffed when my wolf said that. The girl rushed to me, I didn’t know what she wanted to do but I dodged, and she almost fell. I then glanced at my brother who had a shocked look on his face then I turned and walked out.I felt suffocated in that room, and I could not sit there any second longer. “Aiden?” I hated my wolf at that moment. He wanted me to go to that girl, did he forget whose daughter she was? She was even shamelessly wearing my mother’s necklace; did she know how her father got it?When I got outside, I felt like screaming to the heavens for the Goddess to hear and feel
