"Can you guys shut your mouth for a sec?" Lilith got irritated. Perhaps it has something to do with the tiny creature growing inside her womb. "We are already at the canteen. Better find Penelope and the rest of her friends as soon as possible."

As soon as the door of the elevator opens, Mark and Lilith immediately hop out while my werewolf senses are tailing off Penelope's scent. Compared to the canteen on the second building, the one we are in was thrice bigger the size.

"Find them." Mark proposed. "We'll find these werewolf hunters before we could call for backup."

"Backup?" I clarified and debated. "They must not see me here, Mark. And you know that."

"Whatever, Ethan." Mark said back. "You cannot blame us for that. We are simply doing our job as two of the security guards. And you know that of all people."

Of course, I almost forgot. These two stabbed me behind my back. I already ended up everything my wolf has on them; best friend and mate. So there will

    "Just act normal, okay? Take a deep breath. Let go of those thoughts regarding those dead bodies." I encouraged Penelope while holding her hand in heading to the game. "What if they will find who killed those hunters then?" Penelope could not hold onto her worries and fears, so she said it. "We are not part of Ezekiel's pack, remember? If this issue goes to the public, he has all the right to drag our names to it." "So, what do you suggest us to do then, huh?" I debated before I let go of her hand. "Threaten him because he built a school intended for the wolves? No, we can't do that." "I am not saying we have to threaten him, you moron." she insisted. "what I mean is that we should have a plan if things go the other way around. My wolf still doesn't trust Mark and Lilith. What if they will use the CCTV footage to corner us?" My wolf could not blame Penelope to think that way. She and Lilith still have an unresolved issue. Why didn't I consider that before I order

    Aiden had always been the jealous type, and seeing his first love with someone else made him incredibly uncomfortable. The fact that it was his own brother only intensified his feelings of jealousy and insecurity. He couldn't help but wonder if Penelope was indeed interested in me and if she was cheating on him. Aiden's heart sank even if he was simply assuming things. He couldn't believe that his first love and brother were wearing couple clothes, something that he might have always reserved for him and Penelope. His mind, I believed, was filled with negative thoughts as he tried to process what was happening. He might not want to jump to conclusions, but he couldn't help feeling jealous and angry. He began to wonder what Penelope and I had been doing together these days and why they were wearing matching clothes. "You want to know the truth?" I glanced at Penelope's eyes for three seconds, seeking her permission to make things clear. She nodded. Aiden also n

    The next morning, I did not wait for Aiden to wake up. It has been the toughest week for him because of me. He badly needs not just a week of sleep, but a year or so. So I took the opportunity to pack all my things and left the room afterward. Even though I hate the thought of being away from the only wolf whom I cared about, he and Penelope have left me with no choice. In order to protect my relationship with my brother, I have to swallow my pride for his sake. "Ethan?" a familiar voice coming from behind me suddenly breathed out my name the second I step foot out of the apartment. "What are you doing here, Lilith?" I cautiously asked her, ignoring the fact that she was with Mark and Malia. "We are not here to cause you trouble, Ethan," Mark said back. "Lilith and I are simply assisting Malia. She had something to say." he then nodded to Malia. "I am here to claim my fated mate, Brother Ethan," says Malia. And she is referring to no one but Aiden. The three of them then glance

    Penelope's stunning red gown left everyone in awe as she walked into the restaurant. The bold, vibrant red color immediately caught everyone's attention, and the intricate beading woven into the fabric added a touch of elegance that was hard to miss. The gown hugged her curves in all the right places, accentuating her hourglass figure. The high neckline and long sleeves gave the dress a sense of modesty while adding a touch of sophistication to the whole look. As she glided across the mouth of the restaurant, the hem of her dress gracefully trailed behind her, twirling and swirling with every step she took. The back of the gown boasted a daringly low-cut design, revealing just enough skin to add a sense of mystique to the ensemble. The overall effect of the dress was breathtaking. It was simultaneously bold and powerful, yet elegant and chic. As Penelope made her way through the crowd, she seemed to command the attention of everyone in the room. All in all, Penelop

    The doctor immediately helped me put Penelope's body on the stretcher and applied his knowledge of first aid. He studied her eyes and checked her stained gown and found the profound wound in her left chest. "Silver bullet," he uttered while tearing the part of her chest that got wounded, did not care even in front of her is a gorgeous well-dressed woman. "Yes," I agreed, "we were attacked by werewolf hunters and another pack of wolves in the restaurant. It was then she got shot." telling the doctor is the best thing I must do to make sure he knows about what to do to Penelope. Then he ordered me to call the mansion's nurses and forbids me to get in. My wolf could not help but pace nervously outside the operating room, waiting for news about Penelope's condition. While waiting for the result, my hands were terribly shaking while reaching out for Aiden's digits. Even if we are not in a good relationship at the moment, let alone about agreeing to mate with Malia, he stil

    As the sun began to rise, Aiden's grief turned to anger. He couldn't understand how someone could be so heartless as to drug someone using a silver bullet. He found himself hating the person responsible for the incident, even though he didn't know who it was. "Are you all right?" I asked Aiden as soon as we hop into the car we will be using in searching for the werewolf hunter's whereabouts. He and I occupied the same car while the two werewolf guardians Alpha Romulo sent for us also occupied the other car. I did not get enough sleep last night when Alpha Romulo and I made some digging about the werewolf hunters. He reaches out to our pack's allies if they knew something about the werewolf hunters' whereabouts. Apart from that, I swallowed my pride to reach out to Ezekiel if he could help us find Penelope. His agreement with Alpha Romulo involves our enemies, which are the werewolf hunters. On other issues, Ezekiel and his werewolf pack don't care at all. "My

    "I'm so sorry, kiddo, I don't know who that is," he uttered without any signs of hesitation. "But you did not even glance at the photo!" I stretched my hand closer to his face and insisted that he take a better look, but he dodged, went out of his desk, and tagged along with the crowd. Aiden and I exchanged glances. "He knows something," Aiden spoke before he followed the man and drags him out of the club by force which surprised everyone around him. Not that I agreed with Aiden's way of solving things, but the man left us with no choice when we don't have much time to leave for someone playing hard to get. Some of those humans want to follow Aiden outside but they all chickened out as soon as I showed them my waist with a gun in it. Then I followed Aiden outside and helped him beat the man. He hesitated to speak. But after some pressing, he finally told them that Hunter was known to frequent a cabin near the woods. Aiden and I did not waste a minute of ou

    Aiden felt like he had been punched in the stomach. He had been so desperate to save Penelope that he hadn't stopped to consider the possibility that she might not make it. He had been so convinced that the silver bullet would work that he had staked everything on it. But now, with Penelope gone, he felt like he had nothing left to live for. He had been consumed with thoughts of revenge and justice, but now he realized that none of that mattered anymore. Penelope was gone, and there was nothing he could do to bring her back. I put a hand on his shoulder, and Aiden felt a glimmer of hope flicker within him. He knew that I would never leave him, that I am his brother who would stand by him through thick and thin. Even though he didn't know what he wanted to do next, he knew that he wasn't alone. The doctor then excused himself and left us to grieve. We sat in silence for a moment before Aiden spoke. "We still have to find that werewolf hunter," he said. "We still hav

    "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

    "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

    "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

    "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

    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

    "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
