"You can just leave me here, Ethan," Luciana said, her voice barely above a whisper. "The man was right, I might only slow you down."

"I can't leave you getting killed in their hands, Luciana." I insisted. "We must see this kingdom to get changed about us, remember?"

Luciana managed to break a smile at me. "I believe in you, Ethan. But I think you can achieve it with or without me. So, please, save yourself first. Find your brother."

She tried to remove my hands away from her but my grip was stronger than she could imagine. I still have a few questions for her that need to be addressed.

But in order to make that happen, I have to save her as well. I still want to meet her my brother. And I know it will happen in a matter of time.

The man leaves with no choice but to lead us the way. We navigated the treacherous surroundings, our energy levels rapidly dwindling. My muscles screamed in protest, and my own movements became sluggish.

However, determination pu

    Hunter Grey's smile widened, revealing a hint of mischief. "Ah, you mean the woman with you? She did not leave. Kenneth and she went somewhere to check if your brother is in our world. She considered it an emergency." Relief instantly washed over me, mingling with a tinge of disappointment at missing the chance to join them on the mission. "An emergency?" I clarified, my mind racing to fill in the blanks. What angered me the most was that they did not even wake me up since their mission is about my brother. How are they supposed to recognize my brother when none of them saw his face yet? Hunter nodded solemnly, his eyes glancing down for a moment before meeting mine again. "Yes, unfortunately. But rest assured, they will be back as soon as they can." His voice was filled with reassurance, dispelling any lingering traces of worry. Though my heart was still heavy, Hunter's presence brought a sense of calm and tranquility. His reassuring smile offered a silent promise

    "It has something to do with the prophecy, Ethan," Hunter replied. "I thought you already read everything in the book." Traces of disappointment and regret were written all over Hunter's face while looking at me. He entrusted me with the last book yet because of my disappointments and regrets, I turned it into ashes. However, he told me himself that the last pages have something to do with the past and the prophecy. The last three pages were removed from the book without us knowing. "But, if you mentioned earlier that the last three pages were gone." he continued. I nodded. "Then who took them?" this time, Hunter furrowed shortly. "And if they took Penelope..." "It means that the witches don't have them," I replied. "That makes sense, They took Penelope, believing we have the missing pages." "Yes and no," Hunter said back. "What do you mean?" I furrowed. "You and Penelope played a crucial part in the prophecy, Ethan. Without the other one, the prophecy

    "Yes," Hunter replied with conviction. "I am going to risk my life for that one person. Because our future depends on that one person that we are about to save." The tension in the open field was palpable as Hunter and I stood before the gathered villagers, desperation etched on our faces. The atmosphere was heavy with skepticism, doubt, and fear. We had one chance to convince them to help save my brother from a certain cruel execution in the king's ruthless kingdom. Hunter cleared his throat, his deep voice cutting through the silence. "People of this village," he continued, his words steady and determined. "We stand here today with a plea for your assistance, for the life of someone dear to us." Whispers circulated through the crowd, eyebrows raised and curious. The villagers knew of my brother's upcoming execution, their murmurs a testament to the gravity of the situation. Hunter continued, this time, his words resonating with the common folk, "We cannot l

    The kingdom was a sight to behold. As I made my way through its winding streets, the layout was reminiscent of a grand chessboard. Immaculately paved roads branched out in all directions, leading to various parts of the kingdom. Lush gardens adorned the pathways, bursting with vibrant flowers in every color imaginable. Statues and fountains graced every corner, depicting historical figures and mythical creatures, bringing life to the kingdom's rich heritage. The main house stood at the heart of the kingdom, an impressive structure that exuded elegance and power. Its towering turrets reached towards the heavens, and its stained glass windows caught the light in a dazzling display of colors. Guarded by tall, imposing gates, the main house seemed impenetrable, a symbol of the monarchy's authority. As I hurried through the grand entrance, I found myself inside a vast atrium. Marble pillars lined the walls, lending an air of grandeur, while chandeliers hung from the c

    In the middle of running away from the kingdom, I accidentally bumped into an old man which resulted in both of us stumbling to the ground. The wooden large basket he carry on his head also fell into the ground. Pieces of apples, tangerines, and mangoes were scattered all over the place. "I'm so sorry," I uttered while helping the old man pick the fruits and put them back into the basket. "No, it's all right, young man." humbly says the old man. "It's also my fault. I wasn't watching ahead of me. I'm so sorry." Right after putting the fruits back into the basket, I approached the old man cautiously, aware of the worry etched on his weathered face. The wrinkles deepened as he studied me, suspicion lingering in his gaze. I could feel his apprehension, mirroring my own unease. Underneath the weight of our shared concerns, I mustered the courage to break the silence. "Excuse me, sir. I'm lost and in need of some guidance," I said softly, trying to hide the an

    "They're here, Ethan!" Hunter uttered. Despite him having the hard to breathe because of the deep wounds all over his face, he still manage to crack his lips and turned them into a smile. "You mean, the villagers?" I asked back, my voice barely above a whisper. Similar to Hunter Grey, I could barely move my arms and legs at the moment. We got beaten up a few times. Stumbled to the ground just to dodge their weapons being struck on us. To our immense surprise, some of the king's men plummeted to the ground, cries of pain and surprise cutting through the chaos. Right after that, the ground shook beneath our feet as if an earthquake was rumbling through the battlefield. Yet, it was no earthquake that shook the ground—it was the courage and determination of the villagers, Hunter's loyal friends. In a stunning display of unity and bravery, the villagers rallied to our aid. They charged forth, armed with whatever makeshift weapons they could find, their eyes filled

    He even preceded me to ask the question. Even though we are still in the middle of a crisis against the king and his men, it was undeniable that Aiden got excited as though nothing happened between us in their time. My wolf still has tons of questions for him but his overflowing excitement also brought me faith and hope. So instead of bombarding him, I shrugged off and walked side by side toward our horses. As soon as the four of us are settled on our respective horses, Luciana and Hunter led us the way to our uncertain journey toward the future - the only place we call home. The horses' hooves clattered against the ground as we began our journey, leaving behind the comfort of familiarity. We traversed mountains, rivers, and forests, the changing scenery a testament to the vastness of the world. The wind tousled our hair, and the scent of wildflowers mingled with the earthy aroma of the forests. Days turned into nights, and yet we remained committed to our quest.

    "It seems that we are in the right place," Hunter replied, his voice calm to help us ease our trembling nerves. "We are here to seek help from you, old witch." "And it took you ten years to finally give me a visit, future boy!" the woman replied before she chuckled. "You knew about me, don't you?" Hunter frowned. He then helped us up and lit up our torches, giving us the perfect view of the woman's awful appearance. "How could I not? I have been a witch for centuries," she said back. "It was written in the prophecy that a middle-aged man from the future will be lost in our time and will bring two more." Aiden and I did not get the chance to ask her what was bothering us when the woman, with a croaking voice, asked how she could be of help to us. Hunter Grey mustered his courage and stepped forward and asked her, "How we could harness our magic in this world? We need to get back to the future as soon as possible before the king and his men find us." With

    "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

    "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
