Girl's Night

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-28 12:28:14

Maureen's POV

I couldn't sleep that night. Wondering about what Grandma Gina had said. I wondered if the knife was still out there waiting for the right time to be used to kill me.

I glanced at Lance, he was in deep sleep. I couldn't blame him sleeping. He must be very tired. He had not had a good sleep in days.

When I discovered that I was too restless to sleep and I didn't want to disturb Lance's sleep, I decided to go down to the kitchen to see if I could get a drink.

I first tested to be sure that Lance's hold on me had relaxed. When I was sure, I stood up and headed for the door. I smiled when I thought of how he held me so close when we got to the room.

Something in what we learnt about the first Unity must have put him in such protective mood. I didn't question him because I didn't know if it would make it worse or better. Better let the sleeping dog lie.

I got up and left the room as silently as I could. I made my way to the kitchen to find Lucia sitting on the kitchen sto

    Dominus' POVI was breathing hard by the time I got upstairs. My wolf was trying to take control. I matched into the bathroom to avoid talking to Lucia just yet. I needed to control myself and calm my wolf, else he would mark her either she wanted it or not and I didn't want that to happen. 'We need to mark her' My wolf growled at me as I rested my hands on the washing hand basin in the bathroom'She is not ready' I growled back at him'If she is marked then we would be able to sense her and her wolf easily' My wolf reasoned'I know. I don't like this panic I have each time she is not close by. But we can't force her to accept the marking. We need to be patient' I said trying to make my wolf calm down 'My patience is beginning to wear thin' He said and closed the link.I sighed in relief when I started feeling calm. I could sense Lucia pacing in the room. When I opened the door, she immediately burst into tears and broke my heart into tiny pieces'I am sorry Dom. I didn't mean to u

  • My Brother My Mate    Intense Moment

    Maureen's PovI walked into the sitting room hand in hand with Lance. Mum looked at our joined hands and frowned but she didn't say anything. We greeted them and sat down. The Alpha was almost pressing a nervous looking Luna to his chest. Dad sat looking as rigid as an iron rod.'Where is Dominus?' The Alpha asked 'I am here' Dominus answered as he came in along with Grandma Gina. He had obviously left Lucia in the room to sleep. I knew Lucia would not want to be in the meeting. She would prefer to rely on whatever she heard from us after the meeting. I couldn't help but wish Dominus would mark her soon so that she would realise that her place should always be beside Dominus Dominus looked nervous and tried to hide it with a warm smile. I wondered why he was nervous. But then shouldn't our worry be his? He was Lance's best friend after all.Dominus made sure Grandma Gina was seated before he had his own seat.'Should I call one of the servants to get you tea grandma' Dominus asked

  • My Brother My Mate    Dawn

    Lance's POVWe all stood gaping at the person in the hoodie open mouthed. Two things surprised me about her. One, the person wasn't a boy but a girl. Two, she was the exact replica of one of those in the pictures Grandma Gina showed us about the team. I wondered how she managed to get into the pack lands undetected. From her smell, she was obviously a rouge and I couldn't help but wonder how she got pass border patrols undetected. With her looks, she was around eighteen or nineteen years old. If she was able to get into pack undetected and then headed for the Alpha's house she must be crazy or probably have a death wish.'Maureen, Lucia, Grandma Gina, You need to come closer and see this' I called out to themThe women all left the corridor and came close to have a look at her. Grandma Gina nodded her head pleasingly while looking at the girl sitting on the floor. Both Maureen and Lucia looked very surprised.'This is impressive. The waiters would be surprised that the team is comin

    Dominus' POV'Mum, can I come in?' I asked as I stood before my mum's room door. The door was half opened but I didn't want to just barge in. 'Just a minute please,' she answered from inside. Her voice sounded muffled.After what seemed like three minutes she asked me to come in. One look at her and I knew why her voice sounded odd. She had been crying!After Dawn had told us her secret. Grandma Gina had insisted that she would take her under her wings but dad had insisted that they should give her a room in one of the mini flats in the pack house. She was warned to stay in her flat and shouldn't step out until she was asked to. Even then a soldier would be directed to bring her. After she had left with the soldiers, mum had excused herself to use the bathroom but I knew better. From her rigid posture I knew something was wrong. So I followed her after ten minutes of waiting for her to return. She had obviously been crying and covering her sobs with her hand to prevent anyone fro

  • My Brother My Mate    Acceptance

    Maureen's POVAfter Dominus left me, I thought of everything for a while. I couldn't possibly stay in that place forever, I had to get myself together and accept everything. Then I thought of Lance. When I had told him I wanted to be alone for a while, he didn't look happy about it but I insisted. He sent Lucia to me but I also told her I wanted to be left alone. Lucia insisted that I talk to Lance first but I told her that I wanted to be alone for at least thirty minutes. Lucia being the stubborn one, sat beside me for a while. But when she realised that I wasn't changing my mind, she left me alone.Putting myself in Lance's shoes, I knew my mind would be working non stop, wandering why my mate would want to be alone. Knowing myself and how my mind was likely to work, I would think maybe he was even having second thoughts about our mateship.I decided then that I had had enough time to think. It was time to brace up and face whatever destiny had coming my way. I stood up and made

Lucia had gone upstairs to tell them I was around.After I spoke to Maureen and entered the house, Lucia had told me that her parents called and they said they would be around so we could come. She called them earlier in the morning and they said they would be available by mid day. When she told me they called, I instantly felt unsure.Lucia had let us in with her spare key. All the way to the house she had reassured me several times that her parents would love me.'They would love me of course. I am officially the most handsome boy in the pack,' I had joked even if my heart was in turmoil.As I sat in their sitting room waiting for them, I felt very nervous. A lot of questions played in my head. Would they want me to be with their daughter? Would they accept me as a mate for their daughter? Would Lucia stand with me if her parents said they don't want me? What would it do to our mate bou

    Lance's POV'Is she still asleep?' Dawn, the girl we found trying to break into the Alpha's house three days before asked. 'Yes,' I answered her wondering what she was doing in the house. She was supposed to be in the packs' house. 'What are you doing here Dawn?' I asked.'I came to see her,' She answered. 'I know you came to see her. How did you get here?' I asked wanting to know if she had escaped the soldiers.'I walked from the packs' house down here,' she replied.If there was one thing I had noticed about Dawn, it was the fact that she never answered a question the way she ought to.'If you had escaped the soldiers to be here, you had better go back. Forget about the way Grandma Gina treats you, the Alpha and Beta are still very wary of you' I told her dismissively.'What about you?' She asked looking at me with her strange eyes. One of her eyes had the chocolaty colour while the other looked like the colour of a moonless night. At first glance, one might not notice the diffe

    Maureen's POV I had been awake for two days but everybody seemed to be on edge around me as if I could slip into the same state I was in days ago. Lance was the worst of them all. Even in the night, he wouldn't let me sleep peacefully. He would wake me up at intervals as if he was afraid of my not ever waking up again.I didn't want to be angry with him. It wasn't his fault and I totally understood. I would run out of my mind if I were in his shoes. It was not until several hours after I had woken up that I realized that my hair was not the normal colour it used to be. I would not boast of a black hair but my hair was okay as far as black colours go. It had a little bit of brown thrown in especially at the tip. But when I woke up, my hair was completely a bright gold colour. In the bright light, It was almost blinding. I had gone to use the toilet after I woke up from my deep sleep to discover my hair was changed totally.I had caught my image in the mirror in the bathroom and I

We are dealing with corrupt high ups here. They will label the attack as a rogue invasion or say they had rescued the girls the previous day and those they took them from came back to attack the nice and courageous former president. Did you see the way he twisted Sandy's story around?' I said to Lucia.'That man is an evil genius. No one could have thought he was lying through his teeth. He is a perfect actor, believe me,' Lucia said.'I was so impressed with you guys when Lance was saying how impeccable you were with your actings at the former president's house. It is a good thing that I didn't go along, I doubt if I would have been able to pull it off,' Dawn said.'Believe me, you would have when you knew exactly wh

Dawn, Lucia and I had no option but go with them. The Alpha had said we were allowed to go for just three hours which we accepted and that we should take guards with us because he couldn't risk his pregnant mate's safety.Dominus, Lucia and I had gone to the Luna's chamber after breakfast to spend some quality time with her. We met mum there and we had breakfast with them. We talked at length about everything and anything until Dominus had to excuse himself.

    Maureen's POVIt was dark outside by the time we were through meeting at the Alpha's study. My mind was made up that I was going to talk to Ian, whether he liked it or not. As we were about to leave the office, I discovered that Ian had already disappeared but I refused to be discouraged. When we got to the room, Lance had expected me to just freshen up, and he asked for our dinner to be brought to us, but I changed into black trousers and Lance's round-neck shirt. 'I was expecting you to have your bath. Why did you change clothes?' Lance asked as I stepped out of the walk-in closet.'I want to talk to Ian. I want to know who that girl is to him. He defended her so greatly,' I said.Lance sighed and stopped from the chair to stand in front of me and rubbed his hands up and down my arm.'Ok, mama. I know you want to desperately talk to one of your children; I am not going to stop you, but let me come with you. It would be irresponsible of me to allow you to go out alone at this time

    Maureen's POVNone of us not even the Alpha or dad recognized the two people in the other pictures. There was one female and a male. I was so disappointed that a female was also involved in the whole thing. It angered me. How could she be indifferent to the suffering of young females? She should be empathetic towards them!'What I am very sure of is that when we smoke out the former president, these other two will surface,' I said confidently.'I have never met them anywhere,' the Alpha said frowning.'One of them actually looks familiar but I am not sure,' Asher said frowning deeply as if he was trying to figure out where he had met him. 'Which of them?' I asked.'The female,' Asher answered.'The female?' Dad asked.'Yes but I am not so sure. After I did the drawing was the first time it occurred to me that she looked familiar but my mind was occupied with something else so I didn't dwell on it. But looking at the picture again just now, the feeling that I know her came back,' Ashe

    Dawn's POVI woke up with the feeling of someone's hands against my scalp. It was so soothing that I snuggled deeper into the warmth that encompassed me. I opened my eyes and the vision of Asher's strong abs came to view. I smiled remembering what hours ago had been like. He reached for me one more time before we finally fell asleep. 'Tell me you didn't drop that towel on purpose Dawn?' Asher said and I bit down on my lips pretending I was still sleeping.He couldn't see my face since my head was on his chest so I closed my eyes and tried my best to imitate the way my breath would be when I sleep.'I know you are awake Dawn. Stop pretending,' Asher said applying pressure to his touch on my scalp. The pressure was not enough to cause pain but it was enough to make me stop pretending.I raised my head to look him in the eyes. His lashes were lowered so I wasn't able to read the look in his eyes. 'I might have dropped it intentionally,' I said closing my eyes but not totally closing th

    Dawn's POVA day after those heading for the former president's house had left, we had breakfast with everyone present at the dining except Grandma Gina.At the table we had discussed Maureen and the others' movement. The Alpha had said that the former president's call that Maureen and the others can't spend the night at his house sounded suspicious. I could just only hope they would be fine.After breakfast, Asher said he wanted to teach Rocha something on the laptop so I had to excuse them since I wasn't interested in whatever they had to do.When I followed Asher and the soldiers to his pack, he wanted to teach me one or two things on how to use a laptop but I just wasn't interested. He had teased me relentlessly about it and eventually let go of the topic when he discovered that I was truly not interested and he couldn't talk me into becoming interested.I headed for Grandma Gina's room knowing she would be more than happy for the company. Besides, she didn't come down for breakf

    Lance's POV'To think I was beginning to feel guilty about deceiving him,' Dominus said as we entered into Grandma Gina's cottage. We didn't discuss much in the vehicle on our way back to Grandma Gina's pack. Ian had simply said the former president was guilty and kept quiet. We all realised that he was battling some kind of emotions so we let him at least sort through them before we got to Grandma Gina's cottage.'What happened at the former president's house, Ian?' I asked as we all sat in her siting room. 'Can you guys give me a second to grab something to eat, you had lunch but I didn't,' Ian said as he got up. 'I put bread on the kitchen table and there is butter there as well. You can manage that till we make dinner,' Maureen shouted after him. 'Maureen I saw your reaction when that man came in to whisper inti the ears of the former president and the saccharine smile you gave Lance after showed that something was wrong,' Lucia said to Maureen.I thought I was the only one wh

    Lance's POV'I was thinking I would be privileged to meet your mate. A female that deserved such worshipping love is someone I want as a mentor,' Lucia said to the former president when we settled down in his sitting room.'I wish you met her but she waited all day for you guys yesterday because she thought you would be here early. She had to leave very early this morning. She is visiting a friend's daughter that just gave birth to a baby. We have delayed the visit for too long,' the former president said smiling sadly.'I can see that you are missing her already,' I said. 'Oh, how do you know that?' The former president seemed genuinely surprised by my insight.'Your smile just now said it all,' I replied.The former president sighed loudly as he rang a bell on the table. 'Each time she has to go somewhere, I feel like a part of me is taken away,' he said still retaining his sad smile.A girl of not more than sixteen years who looked terrified as she came into the sitting room came

Please take care of yourself and Asher,' I said winking at her.She smiled shyly and blushed. She understood exactly what I meant by that. She should go ahead and get marked already. 'Will you sisters please allow us leave already?' Dominus asked rolling his eyes. Dawn and I laughed as we separated. I almost stepped on Ian as he materialised from nowhere suddenly.'Sorry. I didn't know you were there,' I apologized.'It is okay. I understand,' he said smiling. 'You smell like Dominus' perfume,' Lucia asked raising a brow at Ian.'I just wanted to blend in with one of your smells in case the old man has a keen sense of smell,' Ian said as he opened the back door and sat down.'I didn't even use the perfume,' Dominus said but we didn't dwell on it. We were distracted by Grandma Gina's opening of the front door and coming towards us.'Grandma, are you okay?' Dominus asked mee
