“Is that him?” I whispered to myself, leaning closer to the monitor, my voice sharp with curiosity.

I folded my arms, studying the grainy footage. Lucas King stood in the hotel lobby, commanding attention without a single word. His dark eyes swept the room with calculated precision, and his tall, muscular frame exuded power.

“Impressive? Please.” I rolled my eyes, scoffing at my own thoughts. “Just another overconfident Alpha with too much swagger and not enough humility.”

Still, I couldn’t deny the magnetic pull of his presence. There was something about the way he moved—deliberate and controlled—that made my wolf stir uneasily. It annoyed me to no end.

“Why’s he here?” I muttered under my breath, narrowing my eyes at the screen.

My chest tightened slightly as the answer formed in my mind. He’s looking for me. That much was obvious. The timing, the precision of his movements—it wasn’t a coincidence. Lucas King didn’t strike me as the type to leave anything to chance.

  • Mated To Twin Alphas    Chapter 9: Meeting Fidel Again

    “Fancy seeing you here,” Fidel said, his smooth voice cutting through the gentle hum of waves crashing against the shore. I glanced up from my cup of coffee, feigning surprise. “Fidel,” I said, letting a smile play on my lips. “This is starting to feel like fate.” He chuckled, sliding into the chair across from me without an invitation. “If it is, I’m not complaining.” I tilted my head, studying him as though I hadn’t already analyzed every move he’d made during our last meeting. His posture was relaxed, but his dark eyes betrayed something more—a mix of interest and calculation. It amused me to no end that he thought he was in control. “Is this your favorite spot?” he asked, gesturing to the café’s open terrace overlooking the sea. “It’s peaceful,” I said with a shrug, swirling the coffee in my cup. “Good for thinking.” “Thinking about what?” “Oh, you know,” I said airily, leaning back in my chair. “Life. Choices. The usual existential stuff.” Fidel smirked, leaning f

  • Mated To Twin Alphas    Chapter 10: The Alpha’s Restlessness  

    Lucas POV Where is he? I muttered under my breath, my voice edged with irritation as I glanced at the clock mounted on the lavish wall of the private lounge. “Late, as usual,” my wolf grumbled. “Fidel doesn’t respect your time.” I exhaled sharply, my jaw tightening. Delays grated on me, especially when Fidel was involved. The man could be efficient when it suited him, but his tendency to indulge often led to a lack of punctuality—a trait I had little patience for. “Fidel will show,” I said aloud, more to reassure myself than my wolf. Even as the words left my mouth, doubt lingered in my mind. My goal is for us to capture this intruder and deal with her without mercy.“We should be out there, not wasting time at this circus,” my wolf growled. “This party is beneath us.” “I know,” I muttered, rubbing the back of my neck. The atmosphere of the gathering grated on my nerves. The room buzzed with idle chatter, laughter, and the clinking of glasses, but none of it resonated with m

  • Mated To Twin Alphas    Chapter 11: Preparing for the Party

    “You’re really going through with this?” I asked myself aloud, glancing at my reflection in the café’s window. The question carried a mix of amusement and skepticism. “Why not?” I answered myself with a smirk. “It’s just a party. A chance to have a little fun, shake things up, and maybe learn something useful.” “Or make a spectacle of yourself,” I countered in a dry tone. “Hardly,” I said with a flick of my hair, my voice dropping to a confident whisper. “I don’t make mistakes.” My wolf stirred at the edge of my consciousness, her energy sparking like static electricity. She wasn’t speaking, but her restlessness was enough to catch my attention. “Don’t start,” I muttered under my breath. “I don’t need your commentary right now.” Her response was a soft growl, more inquisitive than combative, like she was teasing me for my flippancy. I sighed, straightening my posture and brushing imaginary lint from my jacket. “Fine, fine. I’ll admit it—tonight is… important.” ---Toni

  • Mated To Twin Alphas    Chapter 12: The Meeting at the Bar

    Lucas POV I forgot I had a goal and a mission to catch up with when I saw Lila; even the thought of confronting Fidel faded away.“She’s not like the others,” I murmured to myself, my voice low and gruff, nearly drowned out by the hum of the crowded bar.“What are you talking about?” my wolf replied, its deep voice echoing in my mind.I leaned back in my seat, my sharp gaze fixed on the woman at the far end of the room. “Her,” I said simply. “The one with Fidel.”My wolf growled in response, a sound both possessive and intrigued. “She’s ours.”“Don’t,” I muttered, my jaw tightening. “We don’t know anything about her.”“I know enough.”The claim in my wolf’s voice sent a shiver through me. I shifted uncomfortably, unwilling to acknowledge the truth behind the statement. My instincts were screaming, a primal recognition surging through me the moment I saw her.But I wasn’t ready to accept it.From my vantage point in the dimly lit corner, I could see everything. The way her laughter li

  • Mated To Twin Alphas    Chapter 13: A Strange Day

    The next day was another day like the previous day, having fun out with Fidel.“Is this really the best use of our time?” Lila muttered to herself, her fingers absently tracing the rim of her coffee cup as she sat across from Fidel at the café.“You’re wasting energy on trivialities,” her wolf growled, its voice distant and strained, as though speaking through layers of static.“What’s your problem?” Lila hissed back under her breath, her frustration mounting.“You’re not listening,” her wolf snapped. “Something’s wrong.”“You’ve been saying that all morning,” Lila replied sharply. “Care to be more specific?”Silence.Lila sighed, gripping her cup tightly. Her wolf’s unusual behavior had thrown her off balance. Normally, the creature was a steady presence in her mind, guiding her with clarity and purpose. But today, it felt erratic, agitated—almost disconnected.“Lila?” Fidel’s voice broke through her thoughts, pulling her back to the present.She looked up to find him watching her wi

    Lucas’s piercing gaze burned into her, the weight of his presence suffocating. Lila’s breath hitched, her heart hammering against her ribcage as her wolf howled in elation. “It’s him! Our mate!” her wolf cried, its voice filled with uncontainable joy. Lila froze, the words echoing in her mind. Her mate? Lucas King? Her stomach churned as if the ground had been pulled out from under her. “No,” she whispered to herself, a sharp denial that her wolf ignored. “The Moon Goddess doesn’t make mistakes,” her wolf said softly. Lila clenched her fists, desperate to quell the storm rising within her. She wasn’t overjoyed—far from it. The man standing before her wasn’t the kind, nurturing mate she’d always dreamed of. He was Lucas King: ruthless, domineering, and the reason for so much pain in her life. ---Lucas took a step closer, his towering frame seeming to consume the space between them. The intensity in his eyes only deepened, and Lila could feel his wolf’s dominance pressing a

    His jaw tightened, but he didn’t respond. The flicker of anger in his eyes was all the confirmation she needed. “Fidel’s my boyfriend,” she said casually, leaning back against the wall and crossing her arms. The reaction was instant. Lucas’s entire body tensed, his fists clenching at his sides. His wolf growled audibly, the sound echoing in the small room. ---“Your boyfriend,” Lucas repeated, his voice low and dangerous. “Funny, considering he works for me.” Lila raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise. “Does he? He must not think much of you if he’s willing to cross that line.” Lucas took another step toward her, his movements slow and deliberate. “Don’t test me, Lila,” he warned, his voice a growl. She held her ground, refusing to let him see her nerves. “What are you going to do, Lucas? Fire him? Threaten him?” His eyes bore into hers, the fury simmering just beneath the surface. “If he lays another hand on you, I’ll do more than that.” ---Lila’s wolf purred at the p

  • Mated To Twin Alphas    Chapter 16: – A Dangerous Game

    Lila POVThe door clicked shut behind Lucas, leaving an eerie silence in the room. My chest rose and fell as I tried to steady my breathing, my mind racing with conflicting emotions. My wolf was unusually quiet, simmering with a sense of satisfaction that only irritated me further. “He won’t back down,” she finally murmured, her words tinged with amusement. “He’s arrogant,” I snapped aloud, pacing the room. “He thinks he can just walk in, claim me, and expect me to fall at his feet.” “Because he’s your mate.” I stopped in my tracks, glaring at the empty air as though my wolf stood before me. “He’s not my mate. He’s a monster, a tyrant. And you’re supposed to be on my side.” “I am,” she replied calmly. “And so is he, even if you won’t admit it.” ---My fingers curled into fists as I wrestled with the undeniable truth I was trying so desperately to ignore. The bond was there, humming like a taut string between me and Lucas, pulling me toward him no matter how hard I resisted

    “She’s in the system again,” Lila muttered, her voice tight with tension as her eyes flicked across the scrolling lines of code.“What?” Jake pushed off the wall where he had been leaning, stepping beside her screen. “I thought the firewall updates from yesterday sealed everything.”“She bypassed them,” Lila snapped, fingers flying across the keyboard. “She’s good, Jake. Better than before. This isn’t a brute force entry—it’s precision. She’s slipping in, taking what she needs, and vanishing before the trace completes.”Lucas leaned forward, studying the flicker of data. “Is that a decoy? Look—see that line repeating every seven seconds? She’s looping a command. It’s masking real-time action.”“Exactly,” Lila confirmed, zooming in on the blinking code. “But she slipped up. Just a millisecond too long in the core sequence. I caught it.”“Can you isolate it?” Jake asked, voice now sharper, posture rigid with focus.Lila’s lips tightened. “Already did. She cut the connection before I cou

    The Code She Left Behind"“That’s not one of ours, is it?” Jake’s voice cut through the hum of monitors, low and urgent.“No,” Lila muttered, eyes darting across the screen. Her fingers flew across the keyboard. “It’s Arika. She’s in again.”“What’s she trying to do?” Lucas leaned over Lila’s shoulder, his expression tight but composed. The green light of the data streams reflected in his glasses, casting sharp lines across his cheekbones.“She’s poking around the restricted files. Again,” Lila replied, her tone clipped, tense. “But she didn’t get through. Not yet.”“And if she does?” Jake asked, stepping closer. His voice was quieter now, edged with concern. “What exactly is she after?”“The archives,” Lila said flatly. “Our core research logs. The stuff we’ve buried under fifteen layers of encryption.”Jake swore under his breath. Lucas straightened. “She knows where the keys are hidden?”“She doesn’t have them, but she’s close.” Lila exhaled, dragging a trembling hand through her h

  • Mated To Twin Alphas    Chapter 142

    LILA Several sunrises came and went, yet I still found myself empty-handed—no real lead, no breakthrough, and not a single clue that could steer me in the direction of my vile sister. She remained elusive but continued stirring trouble everywhere she went. The mess she was creating didn’t stop with random people anymore—now she had boldly turned her games toward the powerful Werewolf Council. That bold move only made my nerves rattle more fiercely. Although my mates tried tirelessly to bring me comfort, their efforts barely made a dent in my rising unease.Instead of resting or taking a break like they suggested, I locked myself away even more in the massive, dusty library, surrounded by flickering screens and endless codes. I poured my energy into trying to uncover anything that could point me toward her. The brothers often had to come in and literally pull me away from the setup to remind me to do basic things—like eat, sleep, and breathe like a normal person.Jake, ever the invent

    Jake didn’t stop.Even after she collapsed beneath him, her body quaking from release, he kept her pinned with his weight. His breath was hot against the nape of her neck, teeth still clamped possessively into her scruff. His growl was low, vibrating through her ribcage like thunder ready to rumble again.And then—he moved.His hips shifted, slowly at first, deliberately drawing out the tension. Her wolf whimpered, sensitive and overstimulated, yet greedy for more. Jake's dominance wasn’t just primal—it was unrelenting. He didn’t wait for permission. Didn’t coax.He took.With a vicious thrust, he buried himself inside her again, harder than before. Her body stretched to accommodate him, torn between pleasure and pain, between resistance and surrender. Her claws scraped against the snow-packed ground as she writhed, barely able to brace herself against the feral storm that was Jake.His rhythm was punishing.Rough. Wild. Untamed.Where Lucas had claimed her with control and reverence,

    Lila’s fur bristled with anticipation, her breath misting in quick, excited puffs as her wolf scrambled back to her feet. Snow clung to her flank from the fall, but she shook it off with a huff, head turning sharply to glare at Jake—still smirking from where he stood on the ridge.She bolted.No warning.No hesitation.Just the raw, fluid grace of her wolf launching back into the forest, cutting through the trees like moonlight through mist.But this time, Lucas was ready.His massive black wolf had been watching her movements, every twitch of her muscle, every subtle shift of her gaze. The moment her paws left the snow, he surged forward, cutting off her path with startling precision.She twisted to dart around him, her heartbeat pounding like war drums in her ears—but he anticipated the move. With a growl, he lunged. His body collided with hers mid-stride, knocking her down hard into the snow. Her wolf let out a sharp, startled yelp, limbs tangled with his, snow spraying around them

    Lila's breath came in visible puffs as she stood in the snow-covered clearing, the moon casting a silvery glow over the landscape. The forest was silent, save for the distant hoot of an owl and the gentle rustling of branches weighed down by fresh snow. She turned to Jake, her voice barely above a whisper."Do you ever wonder what it's like to be truly free?"Jake's piercing blue eyes met hers, a hint of a smile playing on his lips."Every day."She glanced at Lucas, who stood a few paces away, his gaze fixed on the horizon."And you, Lucas?"Lucas's golden eyes flicked to hers, his expression unreadable."Freedom is a state of mind, Lila."She sighed, her breath forming a delicate cloud in the frigid air."I want to feel it. To let go of everything that's been holding me back."Jake stepped closer, his hand brushing against hers."Then run with us."Lila hesitated, the weight of her past fears and insecurities pressing down on her. But as she looked into the eyes of her mates, she fe

    The forest echoed with the crunch of snow beneath their paws.Lila’s laugh rang through the trees, though in her wolf form it was more a ripple of amusement through the link. She darted past a thick pine, her white and silver fur a blur against the deepening twilight."Catch me if you can," she teased, her thoughts light and bold, laced with mischief.Jake’s wolf, massive and golden with eyes glowing like twin suns, barked once in challenge. "You’re not getting far."Lucas, sleek and dark as shadow, responded with a low, rumbling growl that translated into something unmistakably flirtatious. "She forgets who trained her."Lila’s wolf yipped and twisted mid-run, skidding through the snow just enough to spray flakes in their direction. Then she took off again, weaving between trees with a new sense of joy—wild, reckless, alive.The chase had begun.For the first time in months, her heart wasn’t burdened with fear. Her body didn’t ache with insecurity. She didn’t care that her hind right

    Lila's breath came in ragged gasps, her body trembling from the intensity of the moment. Jake's presence was a steady anchor amidst the storm raging within her. She felt the heat radiating from his body, the scent of him intoxicating her senses. Her heart pounded in her chest, each beat echoing the turmoil she felt inside.Jake's fingers traced gentle patterns along her spine, his touch both soothing and electrifying. He leaned in, his lips brushing against her ear as he whispered, "You're safe with me, Lila. Always."She closed her eyes, allowing herself to be enveloped by the warmth of his embrace. The weight of her cybernetic arm pressed against his chest, a stark reminder of the battles she'd fought and the scars she bore. Yet, in this moment, those burdens seemed lighter, as if Jake's presence had the power to heal wounds both seen and unseen.The room was filled with a charged silence, the air thick with unspoken words and lingering desires. Lila's mind raced, torn between the n

    The Awakening of the Wolf“You sure you’re ready for this?” Jake’s voice was soft, but his eyes held the weight of his concern.Lila exhaled, her breath curling in the frigid air. “No. But I don’t think I’ll ever be until I try.”Jake offered his hand without a word. She took it, the warmth of his palm grounding her more than she expected.“You don’t have to prove anything,” he added, brushing a loose curl from her cheek. “Not to us. Not even to yourself.”“I’m not trying to prove anything,” she muttered, “I’m trying to feel whole again.”The snow crunched softly beneath their boots as they stepped deeper into the twilight-drenched forest. Bare branches framed the sky like ancient fingers holding stars. Everything was still—unmoving—but inside her, something was shifting.The trees whispered like old friends. Her wolf stirred restlessly within, sensing the change in her.Jake didn’t press. He walked beside her in silence, their arms occasionally brushing. Every time their shoulders met
