Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 22: Lucas Obsession
Lucas POV “You should have stopped her,” Jake’s voice cut through the quiet, sharp and unyielding. “I couldn’t,” I replied, my tone heavy with frustration. My fingers clenched the edge of the desk, the wood groaning under the strain. “She didn’t want to stay.” “She’s your mate, Lucas.” Jake’s voice softened, but the edge of judgment remained. “You’re just going to let her walk away?” I turned, fixing my brother with a glare. “Do you think I don’t know that? My wolf is tearing me apart for not chasing her, but what was I supposed to do? Drag her back here against her will?” Jake sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’m not saying that, but you can’t just sit here and brood. Do something.” ---“Do what, exactly?” I shot back, my voice rising. “She hates me, Jake. She looked at me like I was the last person she ever wanted to see, let alone be bound to.” Jake held my gaze, his usual confidence faltering. “Maybe give her space, but don’t give up on her. She’s your mate, Luc

Lucas POV I walked to the window, leaning against the glass. The cool surface did little to soothe the fire raging within me. “We’ll follow her anywhere,” my wolf said, his voice softer now, tinged with yearning. “I know,” I admitted aloud, the words a quiet surrender. “I’d go to the ends of the earth for her.” ---The realization settled over me, heavy and inescapable. This wasn’t just about claiming her as my mate. It was about needing her in every sense of the word—her strength, her fire, her very essence. I closed my eyes, letting the thought take root. Lila wasn’t just someone I wanted; she was someone I needed. ---But thinking wasn’t enough anymore. Reflection had its place, but it wouldn’t bring her back. I had to act. “Enough waiting,” my wolf urged, his tone sharp. “We need to find her.” He was right. The waiting, the doubting, the endless spirals of regret—it had to end. ---I turned from the window, a new determination taking hold. My steps were purposeful

Jake’s POV "You’ve got that look again, Jake," I muttered to myself, staring at the reflection in my laptop screen. My tired face stared back, eyes bloodshot from yet another sleepless night.The clock on the desk read 3:27 a.m., but I couldn’t stop. My wolf was unusually quiet, which only made the silence of the room feel heavier."Just one more search," I whispered, fingers flying across the keyboard.The screen blinked to life as I pulled up the latest report from the cyber team. Every file on Lila King—if that was even her real name—sat before me, meticulously compiled and still frustratingly incomplete.Her background was a carefully woven tapestry, and the more I pulled at the threads, the more apparent it became that none of it was real.I leaned back in my chair, running a hand over my face. My eyes roved over the details again, picking out the anomalies.Her school records were flawless, yet there were no group photos, no yearbooks that featured her name or face. Employment

"You’re really dragging me out here at dawn?" Jake grumbled, sliding into the passenger seat of Lucas’s car. "You do know normal people are still in bed, right?" Lucas glanced at him, his expression unreadable but his grip on the steering wheel firm. "Normal people don’t have their mate vanish into thin air." "Fair point," Jake muttered, rubbing his face. He leaned back in the seat, still groggy but unwilling to leave Lucas to face this alone. The early-morning mist clung to the ground as the car hummed down the highway. Silence settled between them, broken only by the steady rhythm of the tires on asphalt. ---"You think we’ll find anything at her pack?" Jake finally asked, turning to Lucas. "I don’t know," Lucas admitted. "But it’s the only lead we have. If she’s not there, maybe someone will know where she went." Jake raised an eyebrow. "You think her pack would help us? Especially if she doesn’t want to be found?" "If they don’t, we’ll figure out another way," Lucas

"Lawrence’s a ghost, I’m telling you," Jake said, leaning back in his seat and drumming his fingers on the armrest. "Whoever this guy is, he’s been playing the system for years. No one’s ever been able to pin him down." Lucas kept his eyes on the road, his jaw tight. "And you think Lila knows him?" "Think about it," Jake replied, his tone serious despite the casual posture. "She’s sharp, she’s secretive, and she’s clearly got her own agenda. If anyone could have ties to a guy like Lawrence, it’s her." Lucas didn’t respond right away. His thoughts were already tangled with questions about Lila—where she was, what she was hiding, and whether she’d ever willingly come back to him. Adding a rogue hacker into the mix only complicated things further. "It makes sense, doesn’t it?" Jake pressed. "I mean, how else could she stay off the radar like this? If Lawrence’s helping her, she’s got access to resources we can’t even imagine." "It doesn’t change anything," Lucas said finally, hi

Lucas POV "We’re going back," I said, my voice firm as I gripped the steering wheel. Jake raised an eyebrow, slouched in the passenger seat with his feet propped up on the dash. "To Moon Creek? You think the alpha's magically going to have a change of heart overnight?" "We didn’t ask the right questions last time," I replied, trying to mask the edge of desperation in my tone. "And we didn’t talk to the Alpha directly. That old woman barely knew anything." Jake sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. "You know, you’re starting to sound obsessed. What makes you think they’ll even let us in after the way things ended?" "Because they’ll have to," I snapped, my voice harsher than I intended. "I need answers, Jake. We’re not leaving until I get them." "Alright, alright," he said, raising his hands in mock surrender. "But don’t go shifting and tearing up the place if they don’t tell you what you want to hear. We need to keep this civil." "I’m not making any promises," I muttered,
Last Updated : 2025-01-20Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 28: Jake’s Theory
Lucas POV "You really think she’s working with Lawrence?" I asked, gripping the steering wheel tighter as I maneuvered through the quiet streets. Jake leaned back in his seat, one foot propped on the dashboard. "Think about it, Lucas. All the signs point to her being more than just some mysterious woman with a vendetta." "She’s not just 'some woman,' Jake," I snapped, my wolf bristling at the dismissive tone. "Relax," he said, hands raised in mock surrender. "I’m not saying she isn’t important to you. But you can’t deny the coincidences. Her fake background? The timing of Lawrence's hacks? It’s all too convenient." "It doesn’t mean she’s working with him," I argued, though doubt gnawed at me. "She might not even know who Lawrence is." Jake gave me a pointed look. "You really believe that? Someone who can create a fabricated identity that even our cyber team can’t crack doesn’t have connections? Come on, Lucas. She’s either working with Lawrence or she’s his next target."

"You think this meeting will give us answers?" Jake asked, his voice cutting through the tension as we walked toward the conference room. "It has to," I replied, my tone sharper than I intended. "We can’t keep chasing shadows." Jake smirked, shoving his hands into his jacket pockets. "You know shadows are kind of Lawrence’s specialty, right? That guy thrives on being invisible." "Not for long," I growled, my wolf stirring at the thought of Lawrence—or anyone—manipulating us. "Easy, big brother," Jake said with mock caution. "We’ll get to him. But let’s focus on the cyber team first. They might already have a lead." ---The tension between us simmered as we entered the conference room. Loren and her team were already there, their screens glowing with lines of code and analytical data. Fidel sat in the corner, his arms crossed and his expression unreadable. "Let’s get started," I said, taking a seat at the head of the table. Loren didn’t waste time. "We’ve managed to trace

Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 52: Jake's and Lila's Dialogue
Lila set the dagger back on the table, narrowing her eyes at the mess of blueprints and scattered wires. "This place looks like a bomb went off," she muttered. Jake smirked. "It’s organized chaos." She shot him a skeptical look. "That’s just something people say when they don’t want to admit they live in a disaster zone." He chuckled. "Maybe. But it works for me." Lila wasn’t sure what she had expected from Jake’s personal space, but this… it was something entirely different. It wasn’t just a collection of weapons or tech—it was a reflection of him. A mix of precision and unpredictability. Her gaze flickered back to the empty space where a bed should be. "You seriously don’t sleep?" she asked again, this time more curious than before. Jake leaned against the desk, crossing his arms. "Not much." "Why?" He hesitated for a second, then shrugged. "Too much to do." Lila frowned. That wasn’t the whole truth. "You mean too much to think about," she guessed. Jake’s s
Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 51: The New House
The house was bigger than she expected. Warm lighting. Large windows. A fire crackling in the living room. It felt… lived in. Jake carried her bag upstairs, stopping in front of a door. "This is yours." Lila stepped inside without a word. The room was simple. A bed. A dresser. A window overlooking the forest. It was nice. Too nice. She hated it. She turned to face Jake. "How long do I have to stay?" Jake hesitated. "As long as it takes." "For what?" "For you to heal." Her chest tightened. "And after that?" Jake’s expression darkened, but before he could answer, Lucas spoke from the doorway. "You’ll leave," he said, voice unreadable. Lila turned to him, startled by his presence. He was leaning against the frame, arms crossed, watching her with that same guarded expression. Something sharp twisted in her stomach. Lucas held her gaze. "If that’s what you want." She should have felt relieved. She should have felt something like victory, like freedom w
Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 50: The Hospital As A Prison
"I want to leave." Lila’s voice was quiet but firm, cutting through the sterile silence of the hospital room. Jake, who had been adjusting the blanket around her, stilled. His eyes met hers, searching. "You’re not ready." "I don’t care." Her hands trembled as she gripped the sheet, but she refused to let the weakness show. "I can’t stay here." Jake sighed, rubbing a hand over his face. "Lila—" "I feel like I’m suffocating," she interrupted. "The beeping machines, the doctors poking at me, the way they look at me—like I’m broken. I can’t take it anymore." Jake hesitated, and for a moment, she thought he would argue. Then, after a long pause, he spoke. "You’re being discharged tomorrow." Relief crashed into her so hard she nearly choked on it. "Tomorrow?" He nodded. "Lucas and I arranged it." Her stomach twisted at the mention of his name. "Lucas," she repeated, voice flat. Jake watched her carefully. "You’ll be coming with us." The relief died instantly. Lila’
Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 49 :The Weight of Responsibilities vs. the Mind’s Obsession
“You’re not even listening.”Lucas blinked, forcing his mind back to the present. Across the desk, Caleb—the pack’s beta—was watching him with barely concealed irritation.“I heard you,” Lucas said, though he wasn’t sure that was true.Caleb exhaled sharply. “Alright. What did I just say?”Lucas stared at the documents scattered before him. Reports on pack affairs, financial records, and the latest updates on the false money laundering accusations. Important things. Things he should be focusing on.But all he could think about was her.“Lucas.” Caleb’s voice cut through his thoughts again.Lucas sighed and ran a hand down his face. “The accounts are still frozen. We’re being investigated. Lawrence left a mess.” He gestured vaguely at the papers. “Did I miss anything?”Caleb crossed his arms. “Only the part where we need a plan.”A plan. Right.Lucas tried to concentrate, but his mind kept drifting. A month. It had been over a month since the explosion. Over a month since Lila had been
Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 48: The Struggle Between Hatred and Desire
“You’re beautiful.” Lila’s breath caught. She turned sharply to look at Jake, expecting to see amusement or sarcasm in his expression. Instead, he was watching her with a look so raw it sent a shiver down her spine. A bitter laugh escaped her lips. “I look like hell.” Jake’s eyes didn’t waver. “You don’t.” She scoffed, lifting her metal arm. The artificial fingers curled and uncurled, the movement eerily smooth. “You see this?” She tapped the metal plating, the sound hollow. “This isn’t beautiful. This is ruin.” His jaw tightened. “You’re not ruined, Lila.” She turned away, unable to look at him. How could he say that? Her skin was pale, her lips cracked, her face swollen from the weeks of unconsciousness. And now—this thing attached to her body, a constant reminder of everything she had lost. Jake reached out, but she shifted away before he could touch her. “I don’t need your pity.” “It’s not pity,” he said softly. “It’s the truth.” She clenched her jaw. H
Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 47: Lingering Between Consciousness and Dreams
“Lila? Can you hear me?”The voice was deep, steady—one she should recognize.She tried to open her eyes, but her body felt impossibly heavy, like she was sinking into an ocean with no way to reach the surface. Everything around her blurred between reality and dreams.A hand brushed her hair back gently. The touch sent warmth through her, a sensation she didn’t expect.“It’s okay,” the voice murmured. “Just rest.”She wanted to fight it. To demand answers. But exhaustion pulled her back into the dark.The next time she woke, the light was dim, but the air in the room was thick with something—something familiar.She shifted slightly, wincing at the dull ache in her body. Her senses sharpened just enough to notice the presence beside her.Jake.His head was lowered, his breathing even, but she knew he wasn’t asleep. He was waiting. Watching.Her throat was dry when she spoke. “You’re always here.”His head lifted immediately, his blue eyes locking onto hers.“You finally noticed?” he sa
Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 46: Shocking Realisation
"Lila, breathe." The voice was steady, but she barely heard it over the pounding in her ears. Her heart raced, the erratic beeping of the monitor beside her growing louder with every second. She stared at them—both of them. Lucas. Jake. My mates. Her mind struggled to piece it together, to make sense of why the two men she had vowed to hate stood on either side of her bed, watching her like she was something fragile. This couldn’t be real. "Lila," Jake said her name softly, stepping closer. Something inside her reacted—a rush of warmth, a pull so deep it made her breath hitch. Her wolf. Her traitorous wolf, who had spent years snarling in anger at the mention of them, was now purring at their presence. No. No, no, no. Her breathing quickened. The beeping of the monitor spiked again. Jake's expression darkened with concern, and then—before she could stop him—his hand was on her face. The second his skin touched hers, everything inside her exploded. ---
Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 45: The Awakening
Waking into Pain:"She moved."The voice was distant, yet urgent.Lila felt as if she were trapped under something heavy, her entire body aching in ways she couldn’t understand. A dull, throbbing pain pulsed in her head, and her limbs felt too weak to move. It was like waking up from a terrible dream, but the nightmare hadn’t ended—it had followed her into reality.A sharp sting burned her throat when she tried to swallow. Her lips felt dry, cracked, and raw. She attempted to lift her arm, but it wouldn’t respond. Her fingers twitched, but even that small movement sent a wave of agony through her."Lila?"The voice was closer now, deep and rough with emotion.She tried to turn her head toward the sound, but her body refused. Every part of her felt disconnected, like she was floating between pain and exhaustion.Something warm wrapped around her hand. A touch. Familiar. Safe."Can you hear me?"Lila wanted to answer, to let whoever was speaking know that she was here, but all that came
Mated To Twin Alphas Chapter 44: A Vow For Justice And Survival
"I won't let him get away with this," Jake said, his voice thick with anger. His eyes were fixed on Lila, who lay motionless in the bed, her once lively presence now replaced by a quiet stillness that seemed unnatural. Lucas stood by her side, gripping her good hand with a tenderness that betrayed the depth of his feelings. His gaze never left her face, even though the sight was almost too much to bear."I know," Lucas replied, his voice strained but resolute. "But we need to focus on her right now. We can’t do anything if she’s not okay." Jake’s jaw tightened. “I’ve never felt this helpless. Watching her like this, it feels like a nightmare I can’t wake up from.”He took a step closer, his anger simmering beneath the surface, threatening to explode. His fists were clenched at his sides, but he did nothing with them. Instead, he let the rage build. "Lawrence is going to pay. For this. For everything. He won't get away with hurting her like this."Lucas turned his head slowly, meetin
