Mated to my Brother's First Love Unexpected and Uninvited
"That was pretty close. I guess we almost got struck by a bolt of lightning." Aiden glanced at the corner of the road that was burning, shoved, and made a huge hole. If that lightning hits us, probably we could have been ashes by now. "Are you all right?" I asked Aiden when I could see blood coming out of his forehead. "You're bleeding." Aiden reached out to his forehead and wiped the blood on his forehead before he replied. "I'm a bit dizzy but I'd be fine. What about you? You're bleeding too." Both of us are fine apart from the car that got wrecked after getting bumped onto the trunk of the huge tree. Getting struck by a single bolt of lightning was one in a trillion phenomenon. And my werewolf instinct was telling me that a bit of bad luck has just befallen us. For that same reason, I started to wonder if getting us a new place to live under one roof was a bad idea. Then Aiden slid to the hole and took a glimpse. "What are we going to do now?" Aiden asked.
Mated to my Brother's First Love Cold-hearted Mate
"What the hell is going on?" I could not help but ask myself. "What's going on is that your parents were supposed to visit our son on his mating night. But you leave us with no choice, Ethan." I glanced at them from head to toe. They all looked like my parents from head to toe since the last I saw their coffins being buried in the ground. Enough reason that even a fool would barely believe in their lies. My wolf and I agreed that there was no spell that can ascend someone from the land of the dead. "You can fool my brother and everyone in this place but you can't deceive my werewolf eyes and instinct." I said back. "there is no way you are our real parents, so better show your true faces... Witches!" To my surprise, the two of them burst out laughing. The woman snapped her fingers and a new phenomenon emerged. All the birds flying from the sky also dropped to the ground. Not even a single sound coming from their beaks or caused by the fall was produced ei
Mated to my Brother's First Love Meet my Mate
"Of course, not." I defensively retorted. "That's not what I meant by it." A part of me wanted to glance at them both, face to face, for them to see my utmost sincerity, however, I cannot do it because I need to focus my undivided attention on the road ahead of us. "Then what?" Penelope was the one who asked me this time. "Because if you regretted being my mate, you could have told me before it happened. I like you, Ethan. You and Aiedn were all aware of that already. I will never regret mating you." Guilt itched my heart all of a sudden even if my ears just heard Penelope's voice. The tone of her voice was stabbing every fiber of my muscles. The worst part is that I don't even have anything to say to defend my case. "Stop the car, Ethan," Penelope added, her voice sounding irritated. "What? Why?" I stuttered, yet I still stepped on the brake and parked the car on the corner of the road. "Are you mad at me because I did not answer the Mating Night?" Penelope hopped out of the car
Mated to my Brother's First Love I Love You, Goodbye
"Mark, I forgot something in my dorm. Could you cover for me for a few minutes? I'll be back later." I clapped his shoulder and immediately evacuated the place. Penelope was about to follow me to the building but Mark grabbed her hands and wagged his head sideways. As soon as I reached the nearest men's toilet room, even my wolf could not stop the tears from dripping down my cheeks like an open faucet. The truth was, every fiber of my muscles was in high spirits when Penelope finally introduced me as her boyfriend in front of her friends. And even in front of Mark. No distance that can measure my happiness from a few seconds ago. I have been so proud of myself that despite our age gaps. Penelope still accepts me with open hands. Perhaps my wolf could no longer find someone like her in the entire universe. However, my deal with the witches forbids me to be with the woman I love and treasure the most. And staying away from Penelope as far as possible, even if it wa
Mated to my Brother's First Love Is Love Enough
"I'm a bit exhausted right now, Penelope. Just done with my night patrol. Can we talk tomorrow?" I smiled at her from ear to ear, trying to make the situation less awkward for us. My wolf could not deny the fact that despite the smile I drew on my face, I could still sense Penelope feels the other way around. "On the second thought, I'm taking this basket, okay?" I added before I kissed her forehead and stepped into the room. The tears in my eyes voluntarily dripped down my cheeks as I slowly dropped my butt on the floor. I leaned my back on the surface of the door, trying to convince myself that everything is going to be fine. Penelope was still standing behind the door. I could hear the sound of her tears dripping to the floor. And I could feel her heart aching in pain. "I'm so sorry, Penelope," I uttered to myself, then wrapped my arms around my knees. "You love me and I love you. But I have to end this for the best. I love you, goodbye." "Ethan, I know
Mated to my Brother's First Love His Protective Barrier
Following my confession of stark reality, no sooner had our hushed whispers and teary-eyed confidences faded to a close, Aiden, Penelope, and I quietly parted ways. Perfectly aligned twines of destiny abruptly severed, and our paths diverged in the eerie semidarkness of late evening. While Aiden's silhouette melted into the dimly lit corridors of our separate dormitory while Penelope's car roared to life, whisking her away into the mist enveloped roads, I stood alone under the dying, fluorescent street light. With the last rusty screech of Penelope's ancient Ford receding in the distance, my tentative steps led me back to the ghostly silence of my dorm room. Depositing my weary body on the worn-out armchair, I found myself impulsively reaching for the witch's book - an enigmatic link to our tangled past and an uncertain future. It lay forsaken on the corner desk, bathed in the yellow warmth of the desk lamp, an instrument harboring potent knowledge - knowledge
Mated to my Brother's First Love Her Protective Barrier
"What's with that look, Ethan? It's like you were mourning someone in that room." I almost stumbled to the ground the second my ears heard the voice coming from behind me. When I turned around, a flash of my terrible past flickered into my memories. "Mind your own business, Lilith." Right after letting out those words, I slowly dropped my eyes down to her stomach. Who could have thought? Lilith has been carrying Mark's baby for like how long? Five or six months now? Lilith was once my mate. And their baby was a product of their betrayal. Funny to say, but it seems that her goddess beauty no longer works for me. My wolf once high over heels every time I see Lilith. But it was all in the past now. My best friend and mate. I could not help but scoff. "A lot of things happened since then, Lilith. If you think that I am still interested in making up with you and Mark, you got it all wrong." "Once my baby gets born, can you be his godfather?" Those were Lilit
Mated to my Brother's First Love White Lies
On our way to the nearest elevator, Mark's phone suddenly rang. He pulled it from his pocket and scanned the screen for a few seconds. "Change of place," he uttered and set the phone back in his pocket. "That was Alpha Ezekiel. He's waiting for you at the restaurant." We hopped out of the elevator and went back to the parking lot where a black BMW car waited for us. As far as I could remember, it was the same car Ezekiel kept on using in and out of the school. "Are you sure about using Ezekiel's car?" I hesitated to hop in but I was already left with no choice when Mark occupied the driver's seat and even put on his seatbelt already. "I mean, what if we meet an accident in the middle of our journey and scratch his car? I don't have a single cent in my account right now." To my surprise, Mark scoffed but in a good way, reminding me of the old time we shared when we were still best friends. Good memories flickered in my mind at the moment while looking at him. I also

Mated to my Brother's First Love The Curse of the Witches
"This changes everything, Ethan," he murmured softly. "We might stand a chance against the witches if we unite our forces." Despite that my wolf still hadn't gotten the picture of his plan, I nodded in agreement, feeling a newfound sense of hope coursing through my veins. "Then we must get this done, Hunter," Aiden replied on my behalf. "The entire city has been hunted by the witches. It was them who are behind this madness." "Count me in," Conrad seconded, "Even if I don't have anything about magic spells or my wolf being the weakest in this group, I will help you with all I could have." "By the way, who are you people?" I could not help but ask those two werewolves Hunter Grey brought with him. They barely open their mouths as soon as they appeared in the bunker. And if I am not mistaken, they are not Hunter's friends or part of his pack. However, my instinct tells me that they were twins or siblings when they did not just have the same physical appearance b
Mated to my Brother's First Love Saving Penelope Part 3
"Okay, I think we plan B?" Conrad asked, his voice strained with worries, especially when Penelope's wolf started getting wild. "Ethan? Aiden? Plan B?" Penelope was now in her full werewolf transformation. And just like the first time that I met her in my dream, even my werewolf eyes could barely recognize her anymore. She was as though everything changed in just a blink of an eye from the once loving and caring Penelope, who turned into a wild murderer werewolf. And it was proven when she just jumped on top of me and began attacking me with her sharp and elongated claws and fangs. Aiden and Conrad were both stunned and dumbfounded by how strong Penelope's wolf really is. They were simply standing on their spots with their eyes wide open while Penelope was trying to bite and rip me apart. But I did not let her do what she really wants to happen. So, I put enough strength into my fist and punched her straight in the face. Aiden and Conrad's jaws dropped to the g
Mated to my Brother's First Love Saving Penelope Part 2
"Who said I am leaving her here?" I asked. "I brought her here so we could save Penelope from the witches. But first, we have to make sure she cannot escape or do something to us." Conrad, without asking further questions, wandered the entire house to look for anything we could use to hold Penelope. Aiden kept on talking to her, begging her to wake up. My wolf, on the other hand, kept my sharp eyes monitoring outside the house. I had to make sure no werewolves managed to follow me, especially since the house we are in has no fences around. Anyone can barge in at any time. Needless to say, our scents are everywhere. Newly bitten or shifted werewolves have more heightened senses compared to us. "Are you sure, Brother Ethan?" Aiden's face started to brighten. "Please, we need to help her. She must remember us as soon as possible." I nodded to Aiden without looking at him. Based on my quick observation, Penelope's condition after getting hit by lightning and thunde
Mated to my Brother's First Love Saving Penelope
"Penelope?" Conrad and Aiden breathed out her name in disbelief. "Is that really you, Penelope? What are you doing? Why are you with them?" Aiden asked, his voice laced with concern. "Isn't it obvious?" Penelope extended her response with a smile on her face. "I am here to be with you and Ethan, Aiden. And I missed you both so much. Get out of there, Aiden. Come. You can hug me." Despite Penelope's sweet and convincing words, my heightened wolf could barely sense and feel any emotions from her eyes. She managed to spill those words but I didn't sense any sincerity from her voice. Sad to say, Aiden was blinded by it. He begged me to remove the protective barrier so he can hug Penelope. I cannot blame him to fell for her words. My little brother was still in love with Penelope even if he already knew that she no longer belongs to him. Penelope loves me. That is why she accepted my wolf to be her mate. "Please, Brother Ethan," Aiden continued. His tears began pour
Mated to my Brother's First Love Longing for Her Voice
"How I wish you won't regret losing us again, Alpha Romulo," I replied, my voice strained with utter regret and dismay. "If we were the monsters you think we are, isn't it ironic that we are still locked up in this hell of a place?" Alpha Romulo's expression remained impassive, save for a flicker of curiosity in his eyes. Perhaps he was intrigued by my sudden shift in tone, my sincerity flowing through each word. After a lingering pause, he nodded to his betas, signaling their departure. They evacuated the place, leaving us alone once again, a sense of resignation settled upon us. We were trapped with no way to escape the inevitable. The hours ticked by. And the weight of our impending doom hanging heavily in the air. "You could have done something, Ethan," Conrad highly suggested it. "The Ethan that I know would do something, everything, in his power to make things right. But you didn't. And I started to doubt if you are the real one." "We are the real ones, Conr
Mated to my Brother's First Love Not Letting it Slide
All the information Conrad and Alpha Romulo brought to us was news to me to the point that I no longer knows what to do. Using magic was no longer an option for me. If I am gonna use magic, then what? Aiden and I will be running for our lives again? Where? To the outside world where we could only see burned trees, abandoned buildings, shoved grounds, and empty streets? To start a new life? There is no life outside anymore. We see it with our own eyes. Everyone was already occupying this underground world in order to survive. The three werewolf packs, despite their differences, managed to survive for two consecutive years. It only means there is no hope outside. While holding onto those awful thoughts, I could not help but drop my butt to the ground with my arms wrapping around my knees and my eyes closed. The holding cell was dimly lit, with the only source of light coming from a small window, casting shadows across the cold, stone walls. Aiden and Conrad lay on
Mated to my Brother's First Love Within Those Years
"The only person who can answer our questions is Alpha Romulo, Aiden. The two of us missed the chance for two years, remember? And I can't wait to see him," I replied, my voice filled with overwhelming excitement. "Me either, Brother Ethan," Aiden agreed before he shrugged at me. "But do you think he grows old that much in two years?" I don't know what kind of question was that but all I know is that within those years, a lot of things could have happened. That includes Penelope. My wolf missed her so badly. I want to hold her hands. Kiss her lips for like ten minutes straight. But then again, it has been two years passed already. A lot of things could have happened within those long years of waiting. Perhaps Penelope happened to have her new mate by now. After a few minutes walk, Dexter stopped walking. Then Alpha Romulo emerged from the shadows, his tall figure illuminated by the pale tube lights. His intense gaze assessed us from head to toe, suspicion clouding his piercing e

"Yes. He's pretty alive." Dexter replied, his voice calm. "If you have more questions to ask, please, address them to Alpha Romulo. I am not allowed to give you more information about anything. My wolf was simply tonight's in charge to keep an eye on the mansion." Indeed, I had a lot of questions to ask Alpha Romulo. Questions that he was the only one who knows the answer. On the bright side, knowing that he was alive gives us faith and hope. Who could have thought the protective spell I cast two years ago remains strong and become their source of protection? But two years? Sorry, but it was pretty hard to believe when we just stayed in the past for weeks. Meanwhile, Aiden and I walked side by side, our spirits high, as Dexter confirmed the incredible news. Alpha Romulo and some of our werewolf guardians were still alive. For the past two years, they believed we perished in the battle against the witches, but now there was hope shining through. Dexter had confir
Mated to my Brother's First Love A Sign of Hope
"What about the pack?" Aiden highly suggested it. "Perhaps if we go there, we could find Alpha Romulo. After all, he is one of the most powerful wolves I have ever known. Or at least one from the pack, right?" Everything began with Romulo's pack. His mansion has been the haven for the witches. They come and go without being noticed. And as far as I could remember before these terrible incidents happen to our world, the witches were furious at me for breaking the deal. I involved everyone, including Romulo's pack, believing that my plan of saving humanity will work, but it didn't. Perhaps this was the result of what I did. So I highly doubt Aiden's claim to be true. The pack, I believed, was the first target of the witches. Even if Romulo is a powerful alpha, his claws and fangs, or even his wealth don't stand a chance to someone who can cast magic. However, we can't stay in an empty school either. We need answers as soon as possible. I need to find someone to ask
