Near Murder

Lance's POV

'You will kill her Dom, please.' The words sounded like Deja Vu. Only this time, it was coming from me.

I winced as the image of me strangling Maureen and Dominus pleading with me to let her go flash into my head.

Somehow Dominus had gotten the idea that Lucia was behind the scandal and he had moved in on her. Thanks to my superb speed and Dominus' anger induced sluggish move, I got to Lucia before he did.

'Dominus, you need to let us talk about this rationally,' Maureen pleaded. I could see she was as scared as I was.

'Dom please. You need to calm down,' I pleaded too. I have seen Dominus deal with threats a lot of time and they were not pleasant sights.

I knew Lucia was his mate but I didn't know if his wolf would take insubordination from her. I watched as Dominus' eyes switched from his wolf's to his.

'Lucia, you need to submit now,' I said to Lucia while keeping my gaze on Dominus in case he went for the kill. I knew how much risk was involved in putting myself be

  • My Brother My Mate    The Good in a Bad Situation

    Lance's POVDom and I stayed in the room silent. Not knowing exactly what to say to each other. The fact that the blogger said an insider gave the information was the most disturbing. I wondered who the insider could be.I was sure our parents would have gotten wind of what was happening already. They might not be the type for internet use but someone must have called them already. I dreaded their reactions.Our phones won't stop ringing so we had to switch them off. It was so bad that we had to block our mind links. I was even having a headache that seemed to get worse by the second. Maureen knocked at the door sometimes later and said our parents were downstairs. When she had walked in, my heart skipped a bit and my wolf stood at alert, wagging his tail in welcome. I had to get a good leash on him and push him to the back of my mind before he did something stupid like grab her. She wouldn't appreciate that. Dominus and I followed her downstairs with a burdened mind, hoping our par

  • My Brother My Mate    Suicide Letters

    Maureen's POVI woke up the following morning feeling happy. It's been a while since I woke up with any other feeling than anger or sometimes indifference. I had felt so sorry for what Lucia did to Lance and Dominus that I decided to forgive Lance. I don't know why I did, but it felt as if there was a force that was beyond me that wanted me to forgive him. After our parents had left the previous day, Lucia was still crying despite the fact that the matter had been resolved by our parents. I was glad that for the first time, Lucia felt bad about her action of getting even with people. She went too far. The reputation of an Alpha and Beta is very important to them as every wolf in the pack looks up to them as role models.'I am sorry Maureen, hope you can forgive me for this. Your brother and Dom got here just yesterday and I have already caused them so much problem,' she had said. Her eyes were swollen from crying so much and her nose was red from the constant cleaning. I felt pity

  • My Brother My Mate    Note to Parents

    Maureen's POVI paced the hospital corridor unable to sit down. I found it difficult to believe that Lucia would want to kill herself. She was the type that loved life. Or so I thought! Dominus had not waited for a stretcher to be brought out to take her into the hospital. He had taken her in while shouting like a mad man.I was beyond distraught. The doctors had taken her from us and as I paced I wondered what could be happening behind the closed door. It had been over forty five minutes since they closed the door.I was alone, waiting for any news at all. After the doctor had done their best to stop Dominus from following them in, Dominus had stormed out of the hospital while Lance had gone to try to get in contact with Lucia's parents. 'Hey, any news?' Lance asked coming to stand next to me.I threw myself in his hands and allowed the sob that I had been trying so hard to hold back flow without restrictions. 'She is going to be fine Reen. She has to be. For all our sakes,' Lance

  • My Brother My Mate    Awake

    Maureen's POVI couldn't believe that I had grabbed Lance in the least expected place. His face was as red as a ripe tomato. I gaped at him in surprise with my eyes wide like saucers.'I am sorry I didn't know it was your thing,' I said pointing at his obvious erection. 'What thing?' He asked looking more embarrassed than I was.He was standing up facing me while I knelt on the bed. He was wearing only his boxer briefs. 'It was poking me in the back and I thought it was your foot or something,' I tried to explain, hiding my embarrassment to no avail.'You could have simply woken me up,' he said in a calmer voice. I guess he was beginning to realise that I was close to tears.'I am sorry Lance,' I said unable to look at him.'It is ok. It is not your fault. I should know better than to spoon you like that.''But we used to share the same bed before you...' I could not finish the sentence as I didn't want to bring up a memory I was trying to bury. Lance approached the bed and gently

    Maureen POVI felt something cold on my face and I quickly opened my eyes. My gaze met that of Lance. He was bent over me looking sweaty. 'Lance?' 'Yes? Were you expecting someone else?' He smiled boyishly. A smile that made spark dance down my spine. 'Why is your hand so cold?' I asked sitting up in bed.'That will be because I have been outside. And the cold outside is killing,' he explained'What are you doing in my room?' 'I came to ask you what your plans for your birthday are,' he answered, pulling the chair closer to the bed so that he could sit close to me.'I have no plans Lance.' 'Really?' He asked with a brow up.'Yes. Is it a must that I have plans?' I asked yawning and stretching at the same time.The gap in my nightgown opened slightly to expose a bit of my cleavage. I didn't miss how Lance's eyes heated up at the sight. I quickly covered up and I blushed. If I said I wasn't enjoying the attention I was getting from Lance, then I would be lying. Seeing the effect I

    Maureen's POVLucia's birthday was finally here and I had decided to get her a gift even if she insisted she wanted to be with her parents alone. I had asked Lance to come with me but he said he had other things to attend to. Lance was the one who advised that I asked Dominus.When I called Dominus he was more than happy to come along. He said he would like to get Lucia a gift himself and would want to get my opinion on it. Lance also asked me to buy a gift for Lucia on his behalf. Although I didn't know what business he wanted to take care of that made him leave me in Dominus' care, I didn't question him. The previous day, he had returned home late. I asked him where he had been and he shouted at me asking if he was a toddler that needed monitoring. He later came to me to apologise and I forgave him thinking there must be something bothering him which he didn't want to share yet. Dominus and I had to go gift shopping alone. I had fun and I never knew Dominus could be a fun guy t

  • My Brother My Mate    Worrisome

    Lance's POVI stood open mouthed staring at Maureen. How could her eyes be gold in color? It was pure insanity to imagine it. 'Maureen, why are your eyes that color?' I asked worriedly. 'What color?' Her voice even sounded different.'Your eyes' color is all shade of wrong Reen,' I said backing away from her as she came closer. I was not moving away from fear but it seemed the best thing to do in that situation.'What is it Lance?' She asked looking confused. Suddenly her eyes went back to normal.I released a sigh of relief. 'Your eyes changed color just now. Are you ok Reen?' 'I am ok Lance,' she said but she suddenly looked at me suspiciously. 'Are you pulling this stunt just to get out of what you did?' 'I am not lying Reen. Your eyes are not supposed to change color until you get your wolf, even if you have, how can it be that color? I have never seen that color in my life,' I said with surprise still evident in my voice.'What color are you talking about Lance?' She asked lo

    Maureen's POVI knocked at Lucia's door gently while I glanced back at Dominus as I heard him start the car. Lucia opened the door with her easy smile.'Is that not Dom, Why didn't he get down to say hi?' She asked looking disappointed.'It seems he is in a hurry to get somewhere.' 'Really?' Lucia asked stepping aside to allow me into the house. 'Are you sure about that?' 'What do you mean?' 'It seems as if he is avoiding me?' 'Avoiding you?''Yes. Ever since the incident, he seems not to want to have anything to do with me.' 'Don't over think things. Besides, Lance said that in two weeks they both would be appointed as the trainers of the newly recruited warriors. So his mind might be occupied,' I said trying to not make her feel bad. We entered her room and I sat on the chair while dropping the gifts by the table. Lucia didn't notice the gifts yet as her mind was preoccupied with her thought on Dominus.I had suspected too that Dominus was avoiding Lucia. I had not been able t

    Maureen's POVI could see that the golden wolf soldiers were restless as the fake golden wolf and I faced each other with eyes blazing.'I usually do not like killing females, but you are giving me no other option,' the fake golden wolf said, making me roll my eyes. His continuous talking was making me feel as if he was stalling. 'And why don't you like killing females, weakling?' I asked frowning deeply.'Females are nothing but weak, feeble things,' he said chuckling alone.'Now I know why they decided to pick you and experiment on you. Your arrogance must have triggered their conclusion. Nitwit,' I hissed loudly.'How dare you call me a nitwit?' He screamed in anger and before I could decipher what he wanted to do, he sent a ball of fire out of his hands straight at me. The fire got to me and engulfed me. I heard Lance shout my name in agony as the golden wolf soldiers growled out loud. I felt no pain so I knew the fire had nothing on me. The fire surrounded me and even danced on

  • My Brother My Mate    Finally

    Maureen's POVI watched as soldiers joined hands together to pack the dead wolves into a heap afar off from the field. They would be buried or burnt later, depending on what the High Moon generals deem fit. I stood up from where I had been sitting on a tree trunk for over thirty minutes. I didn't feel the pain in my chest anymore but I still felt sad. I didn't see Dominus and Lance at first where they stood with their faces looking grim. I frowned because of the look on their faces. I walked up to them and Dominus was startled as if he had been lost in thought. Lance hissed under his breath. I knew that frustrated gesture. He did that whenever he was hiding something that he thought you shouldn't find out for your good. Asher ran back from helping the soldiers and stopped where we were standing. He fidgeted for a while before he tried to excuse Lance. I looked at Dad and the Alpha to see they were in deep conversation. They were whispering but it was obvious that the subject was a

    Ian's POVAll through the wait for the council's president and his minions to arrive, I was restless. There was a feeling of immense sadness that settled over my heart. Shanty's face kept flashing into my mind. I just couldn't place my hand on what was wrong. 'Are you okay?' Rocha asked me. He must have noticed the way I kept sighing and wincing. 'I don't know. It seems as if something is wrong with Shanty,' I whispered back to him.'How can you tell?' Rocha asked making sure he was talking as low as he could to avoid bringing attention to us. 'Her face keeps flashing in my head and I have this overwhelming feeling of sadness,' I replied.'What do you intend to do?' Rocha asked. 'I will not be needed here once the battle starts. I will run to the Alpha house, check on her, and be back as soon as I can,' I answered, and Rocha nodded in understanding. We were all surprised when Rocha's mate showed up at the site of the battle. I felt a little relieved that I would not be leaving Ro

    Maureen's POV'They are fifteen minutes away from us,' Ian said, sweating profusely. He had run back to us from spying on the approaching council entourage. 'Who are those leading the war?' Dad asked. Dad and the Alpha had refused to back down from the battle. The Alpha had insisted saying it was his pack and he must fight to protect it. I understood his points so none of us argued with him. The traitors had declared war on his pack and he had to defend his honour. 'Rogues are leading the battle,' Ian snorted.'That is very manly of the new president. Rogues are leading the battle for the wolf council,' Lucia said bitterly.'Since he isn't a mere male, why is he not leading the battle against a mere female?' Dawn said hissing.'It is good that he will be eating his words soon enough. Get everyone ready general. They will soon be on us,' the Alpha said, addressing one of the High Moon's generals. All the golden wolf soldiers were ready. They had been standing since we got to the pl

    Maureen's POV'We should choose the ground for the war not them,' the General of the High Moon army said as we all sat in the pack's conference hall for a meeting. It was three days after their imposed and fake president declared war on High Moon. We had to let the High Moon soldiers in on our plans since the war was declared on the pack they were meant to protect. Every member of the golden wolf team was present at the meeting. Dad and the Alpha were also there. The two generals of the High Moon army were there as well with some of their high-ranking soldiers.'How do you think we should go about that general?' I asked him not because I didn't know what he was talking about but I wanted him and the others to know that contributions are important as well.'We need to move the fight away from High Moon. Give the spot of the fight and High Moon a reasonable distance,' the general explained.'Where do you suggest we stay to welcome them?' I asked sarcastically.The general nodded at on

  • My Brother My Mate    Asked for It

    Maureen's POVThe moment I saw the way Rocha stood glued beside the president's older daughter, I knew he found his mate. I was elated for him. He had been through a rough patch in life protecting what he didn't know was real or not. He deserved all the happiness. 'I know we are not safe yet but I want to thank you so much for deeming it fit to be gracious my family Alpha,' the president said to the Alpha as we entered the house prepared specifically for the president's family. They were all drenched from the rain except the younger daughter. 'It is a pleasure, Your Excellency. Feel at home and you can banish the thought that you are not safe. I have soldiers on standby to parade this house to keep you and your family safe. 'It is obvious that your older daughter is mated to my team member so a threat to you is a threat to me. I take care of my own, Your Excellency,' I said looking at Rocha and Torrent's joined hands with a smile on my face. 'Your Majesty, please don't call me tha

    Asher's POVIt took me three minutes to realize that the rain was getting heavier and wasn't going to stop anytime soon. Torrent was crying happily in Rocha's hands as they hugged each other as if their lives depended on it. It was as if they had forgotten that we existed. The door of the car conveying the president and his mate which I was driving opened and the president's mate was out of it in a flash running towards me. Realizing what she was doing I quickly walked towards her to stop her from going any further. 'She is going to drown us. She has to stop crying. Else there will be a flood,' the president's mate shouted as I got to her. The rain was getting heavier.'What do you mean?' I asked frowning. I had to shout so loud for her to hear me because the rain was getting heavier by the minute.'Torrent has to stop crying, else there will be flooding,' she shouted.'You mean she is the cause of the heavy rain?' I asked.'Yes. The worse her tears, the worse the rain and it could

    Asher's POV'Be careful out there Asher,' Dawn said that morning as I left the Alpha house to meet the golden wolf soldiers that would be going with me to the council to escort the president and his mate to High Moon. 'I will be fine Dawn. Take care of yourself. I will be back soon,' I said kissing her on the head. When I got to the former Alpha house, the other golden wolf soldiers were already waiting for me so we set out immediately. I hand-picked fifteen golden wolf soldiers to make sixteen of us. Our journey to the council was uneventful and we saw nothing suspicious on the way so I reported back to Maureen. Maureen told me to seek out the president's mate when I get to the council. She also told me where she would be.When we got to the council, I went straight to the president's mate to inform her that we were ready whenever they were. I was stopped by a soldier when I wanted to enter the room but the moment I mentioned that I was from High Moon, I was let into the room.She

They developed a bond when they met and after Mara and her sister Adelia came to High Moon. Lucia was by their side by the time Dawn was done hugging Mara. Lucia hugged her tightly too smiling happily at Mara 'You look so contented,' Lucia said to her.'I wouldn't deny the fact that I am indeed happy Lucia,' Mara said happily then looked at me without her smile missing a beat and then said, 'Your Majesty.''You don't have to be like that Mara,' I said smiling at her. I dropped the book in my hands, walked up to her, and hugged her. I held her hand and led her to sit down on the couch.'Alan explained who you are to me after we left High Moon. I was very surprised at first but then the way you carried yourself and the way you act around people shows the fact that you have always been different,' Mara said. We we
