Maureen's POV

'Tell me that all this is unreal and we are just caught up in very bad dream,' Lance said looking as surprised as I was about what was in front of us.

There were a lot of torture instruments on the table and some hung on the wall. It had different types of silver chains hanging from the wall. I felt cold from inside out.

'These people keep a torture chamber?. I thought I had seen everything at Amman's house,' Dominus said as he peeked at the room above Lance's shoulder.

'We will attend to this later. Let us attend to these people first,' Lance said and we stepped back and closed the door.

We released the people from chains and made them sit on the floor while Dawn and Asher gave them water and fruits they found in the hut at the back.

There was nothing much in the room. Just a giant bed obviously made for the giant and chairs that looked as if they belonged to a dump site.

We looked around the house to find two other rooms. One of the rooms was empty while the other ro

  • My Brother My Mate    An Alarming Change

    Maureen's POVThe day after my brother's birthday, I woke up very tired. Lucia was still sleeping soundlessly beside me. We had discussed late into the night. Our discussion was about everyone looking so confused, about Lancelot coming to me after he got his wolf.I didn't see anything wrong with it. He was the closest person to me. Before I had Lucia as my best friend, he was my best friend.We played hide and seek often, we played tag, and we chased each other around the house and even the compound. So I saw nothing wrong with what happened. To me, he was just playing with me as usual. But there was doubt in my heart. My mum and the Luna acted weird yesterday after the incident. They left for Mum's room and didn't come out for a long time. I forgot to mention that my mum and the Luna were best friends and as luck would have it they were both mated to two friends, my dad and the Alpha.The previous night when Lancelot finally came downstairs in his bright green shirt and black trous

    Maureen's POV'Should I wait with you till he arrives?' Lucia asked me after one hour of waiting for Lance. It was our routine. He came to my school to take me home every day and any day he couldn't come he would call me. I have tried calling him several times but he would not pick up.'Will you try to call him again?' Lucia asked. I knew she was impatient to get home. Her father was off duty that day and she wanted to spend time with him. 'I have called him several times but he wouldn't pick, what makes you think he would pick now?' I snapped at Lucia.'Hey, don't take it out on me, Maureen. I am only trying to show concern,' Lucia said surprised at my behaviour.I realized what I had just done and apologized,' I am sorry, Lucia, it's just that he has been acting weird since his birthday,' I sighed sadly.Something suddenly occurred to me.' You know what Lucia, give me your phone.''What are you going to do with it?' Lucia asked looking at me suspiciously.Despite her reservation,

  • My Brother My Mate    Darkness

    Maureen's POVI woke up with a start. Something woke me up or more like a person woke me up. I could smell Lance's scent in the air. I wondered for a while if he came into my room.Since our talk Monday afternoon in the kitchen, he had been avoiding me like I had leprosy. At my most desperate moment, I kicked against his warning and went into his room. He was not in the room when I got there so I sat on his bed and waited for him.I waited for a long time and when I started feeling sleepy, I laid my head on his pillow and fell asleep.A loud growl woke me from my sleep. I woke up with fright so I started shaking from the impact. Lance did not look at me twice. He banged the door almost removing it from the hinges. Since that day for the whole week, I had not laid my eyes on him.Sensing his scent in my room was the last thing I expected. I had always liked the way he smelled. He smelled like the forest after a heavy rain. Since he got his wolf, his smell has seemed more intense.I loo

It was my eighteenth birthday but it was my saddest.My wolf had happily tackled my sister to the ground in happiness in the presence of all that were there to celebrate my eighteenth birthday.As the future Beta of the park, it would have been disappointing if I didn't get my wolf. It had happened before in our lineage and this had made my parents especially my mum very anxious.My grandfather was not the direct bloodline of the Beta post but according to history his elder brother who ought to take over from their father never got his wolf.At first, they had thought his wolf was only delayed for a particular reason but when he didn't get his wolf at the age of twenty-five, my grandfather who was twenty years then was asked to start training.According to my grandfather, the training was difficult and draining and he nearly gave up. It wasn't easy to train to become a Be

  • My Brother My Mate    Hurting Too

    Lance's POVI heard a soft knock on my door but I ignored it. I was sure it was one of the kitchen hands coming to wake me, probably on Mum's instruction.I had turned all night trying to sleep. I had gone through my own birthday party like a zombie. The idea that the moon goddess gave me a crazy wolf was enough to keep me awake all night. So I wasn't ready to get up that morning.The knock came again and I ignored it, thinking the person would go away when I refused to answer. I waited for another three seconds and dosed off to sleep.My sister's smell was all I smelled in the house now so I wasn't ready to strain myself to get who was at the door specifically.I was drifting off to sleep when suddenly somebody jumped into my bed. The instance the person's body touched mine I knew who it was. My wolf became too alert for my liking.'Shit, Maureen what are you doing here so early?' I shouted at my sister the instance I got on my feet.'Lance, I have always done this in the morning,' s

  • My Brother My Mate    Running

    Lance's POV'Lance stop, let her go,' Dominus shouted at me, his voice piercing the haze covering my senses. I dropped her and started shivering.I couldn't believe I almost killed my sister. I had warned her to stay away from me. I avoided going home because of her. I was going crazy and my wolf was not helping matters. He yearned for her like a pervert. I was going to go mad if care wasn't taken. I had to stay as far away from her as possible until my crazy wolf got back to his senses. I had found her sleeping in my room days before, I had to strip the bed of every layer of clothing on it just to get rid of her chocolaty scent. It was bad enough that her smell hung around the house, even in the surrounding bushes.I had cried on Mum's bosom that morning too overwhelmed with wanting her and trying to stay away from her. I was not about to commit incest because some stupid wolf thought nothing of it. If he was crazy, I was sane. It was an endless war between me and my wolf. In the m

  • My Brother My Mate    Time to Go

    Lance's POV'Lancelot tell me it is a lie,' my mum fumed immediately I entered the pack's hospital room where my sister laid hooked to a machine. I walked towards my mum holding my hands in front of me as if I was praying.That day after I ran, I stayed away from home. It's been two days. Only Dominus knew where I was. I couldn't face my parents, look them in the eye and tell them I almost killed their daughter. Despite the fact that they weren't that close to Maureen, I knew no parent would want their child dead. I walked towards my mum carefully, unsure of how emotionally stable she was. She was after all a Beta wolf. No amount of love she has for me can stop her from hurting me if her wolf decided to punish me for what I did and I was sure my wolf would not lift a finger in defense because of two things. One, she was my mother, two, it would be an opportunity for my wolf to see me punished. He has been going mad in my head for the past two days. 'Mum, I am really very sorry. You

    Maureen's POV'Maureen,' Asher shouted my name before he flew at me and we both fell on the ground as an arrow flew over our heads.Lance and Dominus immediately jumped into action as they ran towards the direction the arrow came from. As they ran towards the direction, another arrow flew right towards Lance and he threw it off with his sword. Dominus became invisible at that point and the arrows kept coming for Lance aggressively. I quickly got up from the ground as I gazed after my mate in worry.'Thank you Alpha,' I said to Asher and he simply nodded his acknowledgement.The arrows stopped and Dominus appeared with his hand firmly holding a male wolf by his clothes. We walked towards them quickly as Dominus made the male wolf kiss the ground in front of Lance.'Who are you?' Lance asked in a booming voice that clearly belonged to his wolf.'You are trespassing,' the male wolf answered.'This is an unclaimed land. I believe it should have a free passage,' Dominus said.'It belongs

    Maureen's POVI stood still for the second time in five minutes. 'Why do I feel as if we are being followed?' I asked no one in particular. I just wanted to know if anyone else felt what I was feelingWe had set out on the journey for the search very early. As early as six o'clock am. We didn't eat breakfast but we packed sandwiches and juices in our back packs courtesy of Asher's house keeper. 'You might be feeling like that because Ian had implied in your discussion that he was at Amman's pack with you,' Lucia said shrugging,'The feeling is so strong. I felt it two days ago when we went out on Dawn's insistence to have a look at Royal Touch,' I said.'If I tell you something, promise me you wouldn't freak out,' Lance said and we all stopped walking to look at him.'What is it Lance?' I asked looking at him nervously.'I think Ian is actually following us. I have seen him briefly once or twice,' Lance said and we all gaped at him in pure disbelief.'Are you trying to spook us,' Lu

  • My Brother My Mate    Ready

    Dawn's POVTo say I was nervous would be an understatement. I woke up feeling nervous. I had a mate! It was such a novelty for me. I had hoped for a life that would involve other people while I roamed the forests and bushes of unclaimed lands. But at a point I had given up on that dream.I had brushed my teeth and had my bath rather early. Despite the fact that I didn't sleep early, I still couldn't wake up late. I was looking forward to the discussion I was to have with Asher. I tied the bathrobe and wrapped my wet hair in a towel before stepping out of the bathroom. I had a major scare as the door to my room suddenly burst open. Maureen and Lucia walked in without the courtesy of knocking first. 'What are you two doing here? It is rather too early,' I said looking at them in surprise.'We know, right. We were thinking that just maybe we might find Alpha Asher here,' Lucia said sounding overly dramatic.I rolled my eyes at her. I had noticed that Lucia liked blowing things out of

  • My Brother My Mate    Looking Forward

    Lance's POV'Somebody should wake me up. Am I dreaming?' Alpha Asher said as we all sat in his study after Maureen had declared that Alpha Asher was a part of her mission.Dawn covered the light projecting from Alpha Asher's torso with her hands when it became obvious that the light wasn't dulling off anytime soon. Maureen had slumped and I had to catch her before she got the ground. 'You are not dreaming Alpha Asher. She is the golden wolf,' Lucia said. Maureen was still leaning against me as it seemed as if the experience had sapped her of her strength.'You mean the golden wolf is a female?'Alpha Asher asked.'You have a problem with that?' Maureen asked sitting straight.'No. I don't have a problem with it. The thing is we had always thought the golden wolf would be a male. He was a male the last time going by the record,' Alpha Asher answered still looking surprised.'I guess the golden wolf decided to choose the perfect sex. Don't you think Alpha?' Lucia asked.'It sure did,'

    Lance's POV'We might have to call Grandma Gina to confirm what he said,' Maureen said as we explained everything Alpha Asher has said. 'We need to be sure he is saying the truth. He might be lying for all we know,' Lucia said and Dawn growled at her.'I am sorry. I didn't mean to do that,' Dawn apologized as a slight blush tinted her cheeks.'He is your mate Dawn, it is natural for you to defend him. I should not have called him a liar. I am sorry. I am just confused,' Lucia apologized to Dawn.'I understand you perfectly. There is no need to apologize,' Dawn said calmly.Dominus picked his phone and called Grandma Gina. 'Hello my boy,' Grandma Gina said happily. 'It's so good of you to call this tired old lady after calling everyone and exempting me.' Dominus rolled his eyes but he still couldn't hide the smile that pulled at his lips. 'Dawn called you grandma,' Dominus said.'Of course that is because she is my only grandchild,' Grandma Gina said sarcastically.'I am sorry gran

  • My Brother My Mate    The Youngest Waiter

    Lance's POVI had stopped Alpha Asher from following Dawn for two reasons. One I knew from experience that she would not want him to follow her like that and there was every possibility that she would not talk to him.Two I thought it was best to let her confide her worries to someone who could calm her down first before he went to her.I actually pity him. I was once in a situation like his and I knew it wasn't easy to feel helpless and your mate unreachable.'You need to sit down Alpha. I believe things will fall into place. Just give her some time,' Dominus said sympathetically as Alpha Asher paced back and forth looking up the stairs.He came back to sit down looking agitated. None of us could eat. Even Lisa looked confused but she asked no questions.After about thirty minutes we heard footsteps on the stairs and we looked up to see Maureen leading Dawn down the stairs.Alpha Asher quickly stood up. He was gazing at Dawn's face as if he could somehow see what was going through he

  • My Brother My Mate    The Panic Attack

    Maureen's POVI watched in surprise as the Alpha of Royal Touch approached Dawn with his eyes a replica of one of Dawn's eye balls. His eyes were midnight dark like Dawn's right eye. His wolves eyes!Then it occurred to me that when he came to pick Lisa up, I had thought that his chocolaty eyes looked familiar. It was the exact color of Dawn's left eye. His own eye color!At first, Dawn allowed him to hold her in a very tight embrace but then she gently let go of him and stepped back. 'Hi.' She said to him smiling but I could see that the smile didnt reach her eyes.'Hi,' Alpha Asher said as his eyes returned to their normal colour. 'Can we all go inside?' An elderly woman said beaming with smile.I guess she was very happy that the Alpha found his mate. 'We will follow you inside in a minute please can you just excuse us for some minutes, we need to talk to Dawn?' Dominus said gently but that didn't stop Alpha Asher from growling at him.'We promise to be with you in few minutes

    Lance's POV'Remember what I told you. Call immediately you discover or even suspect that something is not right,' dad reiterated as they saw us to the waiting car. Dominus would be driving while I would take the front passenger seat. The girls would be sitting in the back seat. Two soldier vans were to follow us to the border of Royal Pack and after we meet Alpha Asher's Beta at the border, they would turn back.'Do not worry dad, mum. We will be fine,' I said trying to reassure them.'We know that you have all somehow found favour in the eyes of the Moon Goddess but still you need to be careful,' the Luna said and we nodded. 'Let them be on their way already. They are not kids anymore. They carry the future of the entire wolf world on their shoulders,' Grandma Gina chided.We all laughed at the way she rolled her eyes whilst saying that before giving our parents hugs and saying goodbye.
