Lances POV

A sound woke me. Getting conscious, I stretched like a contented cat as I came awake. I checked the time on my bedside clock to see it was past seven o'clock am.

I couldn't remember the last time I slept that late. But then, it was expected that I would sleep that late. I had reached for Maureen two more times during the night and each time, she had yielded to me without restraint.

I looked at the other side of the bed expecting her to be there but the bed was empty. I sat up instantly.

'Relax. I am in the bathroom,' Maureen laughed into the mind link. She must have felt my panic.

I sat up properly and stretched my body again. The sound of her opening and closing the bathroom door must have woken me up.

I heard my stomach rumble before I felt the pressure on my bladder. Neither Maureen or I had dinner the previous night and I doubted that most occupants of the house had dinner either.

I opened the bathroom door to see Maureen brushing her teeth. She looked at me walking

  • My Brother My Mate    Unbelievable

    Lance's POVWe couldn't believe what was right in front of us in Alpha Amman's pack. Lot of people were on the streets begging for alms. Several homeless people in one place made my skin crawl. How was it even possible. 'I have followed buyers here a couple of times but I have never seen this scene before in my life,' Dominus said beside me. We were still in the car but our convoy was heading towards their pack's house. 'How was he able to keep this a secret?' I wondered out loud.'I guess dad was right after all. Alpha Amman was a sick man. How on earth could he have reduced his own people to this?' Dominus was obviously angry because his voice sounded so loud in my ears. Dad had mind linked me that one of Amman's soldiers was leading us to the park's house.Houses that looked more like huts littered everywhere. People came out of some of them to stare at the convoy. I didn't see one person that looked okay enough to be called a healthy wolf. They looked starved and their gazes

They left around mid day and it was not yet three o'clock but it felt like he had been gone the whole day.Lucia and I sat down, not saying much to each other. We both missed our mates.'I didn't expect that there would be a day that my happiness would depend on the presence of someone else,' Lucia said sadly.'Neither do I. But then the mate bond can be really though,' I said smiling sadly at her. A knock came at the door and I said an absent minded 'come in.' Dawn peeped in before coming in.'The Luna said you both should meet her in the sitting room immediately,' Dawn said.Lucia and I exchanged confused glances. What could the Luna possibly want? We quickly got up and headed for the sitting room in quick steps. When we got there, we met two pack doctors, a male and a female. My heart started beating at one thousand times per second.

    Maureen's POVBy the time I had spoken to two of the girls, I almost broke down. They had gone through a lot that I found so unbelievable.There were fifteen girls that we could talk to except for Lisa who the doctors deemed irredeemable. The atmosphere was so tensed as we questioned the girls. At a point after the pack doctor had told them that Lisa might soon succumb to her pains, they had huddled together and cried. The doctor had said it was hard for Lisa's body to fight the wolf's bane since she hadn't gotten her wolf yet. Mara was assigned to encourage the girls to talk to us and give us information that we needed so that we could help them.I was assigned three girls while Lucia also had three girls to talk to. Dawn was assisting mum with the rest of the girls.We were to ask them for their names and the original packs they belonged to and made sure everything was documented.'What is your name?' I had asked the first girl that I was to question. She was silent for sometime b

    Lance's POV'Reen you need to calm down,' I said for the umpteenth time.'What if I wasn't meant to touch her? What if she dies quicker because of my careless move?' Maureen asked looking too worried for her own good.'Either you touched her or not she would have died. It might have been a coincidence that you touched her at her very last moment,' Lucia said and I sent a grateful look her way.'No. it wasn't coincidental. I felt warmth go out from me into her,' Maureen argued.She was right. She had felt the warmth and I had seen the bright light that processed from Maureen into Lisa.I knew Lucia also saw It but she was trying to make Maureen calm down so that we could talk about it. I wished at that moment that Grandma Gina was around. I had asked Maureen and Lucia to accompany me to see Lisa for the last time because I wasn't sure I would be able to stop myself from breaking down. I had expected that their presence would help me keep it together. When Maureen had suddenly started

  • My Brother My Mate    The Attack

    Lance's POVI woke up as I felt Dominus pressing into my mind link. I gently removed Maureen from me to avoid waking her up. I checked the time to see it was already six o'clock in the morning. I had barely slept for three hours.I opened the link and grumbled a not so gentle, 'What?' into the mind link.'Lisa is awake,' Dominus said.'What do you mean by she is awake?' 'That is what the doctors said. You need to come down,' Dominus said and cut the link.I looked at Maureen on the bed with her golden hair spread all over the pillow and wondered if her touch had actually healed Lisa. Lucia had said she didn't see the ball of light but I did. I was very sure that I had not imagined it. It actually happened. I stood up to change from my pyjamas so that I could go downstairs and see what was happening for myself but then I stopped Maureen would want to be there too. Despite the fact that I didn't want to wake her up when she had just had little sleep, I gently shook her awake by her

    Maureen's POVLucia and I listened to the noise coming from outside with trepidation. It sounded like the sound of war. My heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it wanted to just jump out and beat me on the floor freely.I tried mind-linking Lance to no avail. Lucia also tried Dominus and there was no response.'I can't continue to just stay here Lucia we have to see what's going on,' I said as I started pacing as worry consumed every of my being.'We can't defy their orders Maureen. Let us wait here,' Lucia said and I looked at her in surprise.'Since when did you start following orders Lucia,' I asked in amazement. Lucia was one person that was very daring.'Since I got mated to Dominus. He is a very dominant male, he liked to be listened to and obeyed,' Lucia answered.'So also is Lance. But this new you is quite surprising,' I said. Lucia didn't give me any more reply. Then I noticed something different in her that I haven't noticed before. Lucia was twisting her finger

  • My Brother My Mate    Mara's Breakdown

    Lance's POVEveryone gaped in surprise at Mara. She was physically shaking and breathing hard. She looked so angry for the mild tempered woman we had met the day before.She wasn't satisfied with cutting the Gamma's throat obviously as she started stabbing him all over with the tip of the sword.'Mara you need to stop. He is dead already,' dad said as it seemed everyone one of us was too surprised to say anything.Mara didn't stop. She kept stabbing him non stop. 'Mara,' the Alpha called her name but she didn't answer. She just kept on with it until the Alpha stepped forward and got hold of her by the shoulder.'No. He has to die. Let me kill him,' Mara said lifting her face up. There were blood stains that came from the Gamma's body on her face and clothes. There was also a crazed look on her face.'He is dead already,' the Alpha said gently as he noticed the look on her face.'Then he must burn. He must burn right now,' Mara said as she started dashing around looking for something.

  • My Brother My Mate    The Result

    Maureen's POVEvery word that came out of Mara's mouth cut into my soul like a sword. I never believed in my life that anybody anywhere could be that cruel and mean. Mara held on to mum like a drowning person as she cried bitterly. I saw that Lucia was crying too but I couldn't. I was angry. I felt so embittered by what innocent Mara had gone through.Mara's tears gradually faded into hiccups. She must be feeling broken. She was strong, no doubt. For her to have held so much pain in and helped us with the girls, she was indeed strong. 'Mara.' A voice called from behind us and that immediately made Mara lift her head from mum's chest and looked at her new comer.The girl was held between the doctors. She looked pale but that didn't hide her beauty. She had long beautiful lashes that hid her eyes behind them.'Lisa,' Mara shouted in excitement and ran to hug the fragile looking girl. Lisa? We all gaped at her. I couldn't help but wonder if it was the same disfigured Lisa that was lyi

  • My Brother My Mate    Not Abandoned

    Lance's POVI sat down on Maureen's other side on the bed holding her hand as she explained everything she saw in the dream. The room was silent as everyone patiently listened. I had almost gone mad when she didn't wake up after I started shaking her to wake up. I knew she was dreaming because she kept calling Katrina's name over and over again. My thought was that she was dreaming about her because that was the last thing she must have thought about before going to sleep. I had thought that I only had to shake her awake. I shook her several times but she didn't wake up. She just kept mumbling and squeezing her hands so hard that they became red from the effort. I had wanted to raise alarm about it but she beat me to it and started screaming so loud that the entire neighborhood could hear. Everybody ran into our room and tried waking her to no avail. When she finally opened her eyes, I felt as if a heavy load was lifted off my head. I never wanted to go through what I went throug

  • My Brother My Mate    Lucid Dream

    Maureen's POVI was too disturbed to listen to the conversation going on around me. Katrina was going through a lot already so the idea that her former tormentor took her again didn't sit well with me. 'There is no way to prove that he took her. Beside, there is no way he would have done it. He was with us all through,' the Alpha said.'What if one of his minions did it for him?' the Luna asked. There was a possibility of that because soldiers had reported that three of the Vice President's entourage were sniffing around the house when we were inside welcoming him. The soldiers had been told to keep an eye on them. What if one of them had sneaked away to do the Vice President's dirty job at that moment. 'We need a clear thought here. So please I need everyone to calm down,' the Alpha said.By everyone, he meant everyone. The sitting room was filled with everyone that had connection with Katrina. Adelia and Mara were there trying desperately to calm down. Even Ian that disappeared

    Lance's POV'You did a good job Ian. Kudos to you,' the Alpha said patting a beaming Ian on the back.When we had made all the plans, I had feared that Ian might not be able to pull it off. I voiced my reservation and he assured us that he could do it as far as it had nothing to do with spilling blood. It had been important for us to make everything believable. Elder Nat, the Alpha and dad had come up with the plan.We were told about the plan and we agreed immediately.Dominus could have been the best person to do it but he was the Alpha's son and the Alpha needed to project a united family front. Dominus' absence would have been too conspicuous.'But this is not the end. He will be back or preferably let me say that he will keep investigating us. People like him don't back down easily,' the Alpha said. We were in the sitting room of the Alpha house. We had just gotten back from the field with elated moods.'I think that Asher and the soldiers can return now?' I asked.'That depends

  • My Brother My Mate    His Voice

    Maureen's POV'Can you please clean up the guest room on the left?' The Luna said to one of the staff as we led Mara up the stairs. She was no longer crying but she looked weak and unhappy. The Luna had said we should take Mara to her room. We couldn't talk in that scattered room. 'I need to go see the girls,' Mara said again tiredly after Lucia and I made her sit down on a chair in the Luna's room. 'I can mind link a soldier to get Adelia to check on the girls. Only on the condition that you tell me exactly what is going on,' the Luna said to her. Mum came out of the bathroom with the first aid box and got to work on Mara's right hand. The cut was already healing, but she had to get the glass shards out so that the wound could heal properly. Mara winced when Mum removed a shard that was stuck on her middle finger. When Mum was through, she applied ointment and wrapped it in gauze. I was sure it would heal in minutes. 'Mara, what happened?' The Luna asked again. 'I wanted to co

  • My Brother My Mate    Unwanted Visit

    Maureen's POVI lay in Lance's hands all through the night wondering why I felt as if I just lost a child. I had felt an instant connection with the soldiers when I met them.When I met Alan too, it was the same feeling. I had not wanted Lance to feel jealous that was why I didn't tell him how I felt towards Asher since the first time I laid eyes on him in Amman's pack. My hatred for the Council's Vice President was so great that I shook from the effect. 'Reen are you okay?' Lance asked and made me turn to face him on the bed. He must have noticed the way I trembled.When he saw my eyes, he gasped in surprise, and I knew immediately that my eyes had changed color. He placed his palm on my cheek and caressed me gently.'You need to calm down, my love, or else you will give yourself out,' Lance said.'I do not care. I am ready for war. That fool thought he could use what is mine and get used away with it.' I was staring at Lance from my mind, my wolf had taken over.'He is not going t

  • My Brother My Mate    Smarter

    Lance's POVI had to call Dominus' phone before I could get him down to the Alpha's office. I lied to him that the office was on fire and waited for him outside the office. He was breathless by the time he got there.'What the hell, Lance? Why did you lie to me like that?' 'I have tried reaching you through the mind link to no avail, so I called,' I said, shrugging.'That still doesn't excuse your lie,' Dom said breathing hard. He must have been really scared. 'Metaphorically speaking, it is on fire. The Vice President of the council is on his way to collect Alan's corpse,' I explained to him.'What? Alan is not dead. How do you produce the corpse of a living man?' Dominus asked frowning.'Elder Nat is in there with our parents. He said he had an idea of how we could go about it. That was why your dad said I should go get you,' I explained.Dominus walked past me, opened the study door, and went straight in. I rolled my eyes and followed him in. 'You had your walls up. We have been

  • My Brother My Mate    Coming For Corpse

    Lance's POV'I refuse to talk to him alone,' Mara said stubbornly. 'I don't even know if I can trust him not to manipulate me.' 'Mara. It is a good thing that you know that a mate's hold on you is powerful so you will be prepared if the need be for you to resist his manipulation,' Dad said to Mara.'Besides that, why will he want to talk to me when all he will eventually do is reject me when he discovers my past,' Mara said.She was nervous; it was all over her face. She thought Alan would reject her immediately after he heard what she had been through at Amman's house. Alan was at that moment not in the place to reject anyone. After he had broken down and cried because of the way he was betrayed, he calmed down and begged the Alpha to allow him to see his mate. Alan had said he wanted to see her because he didn't know what his fate would be. He had seen her in the dark and he wished to see her in broad daylight. It was almost evening though but there was still enough daytime to s

  • My Brother My Mate    Betrayed

    Lance's POV'I need you to tell this young man the things you went through at Amman's house,' the Alpha said to one of the girls that were with Mara and the others at Amman's house.'We will understand if you can't. Nobody is forcing you,' Dad said to her.'No, it is okay. Mara called Adelia that there was someone who needed to be enlightened about the things we went through in Amman's house and I volunteered. Besides the therapist said the more we talked about our experience, the better the trauma would become,' she said smiling at Dad.I couldn't deny the fact that most of the girls we brought back from Amman's house were strong-willed. I couldn't comprehend how they still found it easy to smile so sweetly after everything they had been through. The girl narrated everything to Alan. He was looking at the girl all through her talk as if he was in total disbelief.'Thank you so much, my dear girl, you can return to the main house, a car will take you back to the pack house,' the Alph

  • My Brother My Mate    Someone to Blame

    Dominus' POVI stretched my hand and reached for Lucia as I came out of my restless sleep but she wasn't there. I was startled at first and sat straight.Then I remembered. It had been a lonely night. I had slept alone because Lucia had spent the night with her mother. I couldn't argue with her. They needed each other. I felt someone pushing into my mind link and I opened up. It was Dad. 'Good morning, dad,' I greeted him.'We will be heading down to give Alan some eye-opening facts. If you wish to join us, you should be ready in about an hour,' Dad said into the mind link.'Ok, dad. I will be downstairs soon,' I said and closed the mind link. I stood from the bed and went into the bathroom with heavy footsteps. I wasn't happy. The sadness I was feeling wasn't mine alone. Lucia was letting her guard on the mind link down on and off and her emotions kept seeping in. How could I possibly be okay when my mate was grieving? I was grieving too. That was like joining two heavy hearts to
