Lance's POV

'Dominus, can I come in?' I asked as I knocked at his door.

The door opened and I stepped in to see that it was Dominus who opened the door.

He looked a bit rough and unhappy. I knew he would have been very worried for his mate.

I saw that Lucia was still lying on the bed, sleeping.

'How is she?' I asked looking at Lucia's sleeping form.

'She is fine I think. She ate something and said she wanted to sleep.'

'What about you? Are you okay? You look unhappy,' I said.

'Come in and sit down, Lance,' Dominus said closing the door and led me to the sofa.

'You know Maureen would never hurt Lucia intentionally, right?' I asked Dominus when we were seated.

'I don't even know what to think, believe me. I am torn between protecting my mate and standing with my sister,' he said rubbing his hand on his face.

'What do you mean?' I asked confused.

'I am beginning to doubt our safety with Maureen around,' Dominus said with worry evident on his face.

    Lance's POV'Mum are you sure you are ready for this?' Dominus asked the Luna after she said I was free to mark Maureen.'I am sure Dominus. I would do anything for my child,' she said to Dom. 'I understand why you are charging into this head first and I appreciate it a lot' I said to the Luna.'If you understand why I am doing this, does that mean you heard everything we were discussing just now?' The Luna asked.'Yes. Not everything but I heard enough to make me realize that my delay in marking my mate was risky,' I said.'I thought I caught your scent in the air but I thought I was just hallucinating because we were discussing you and Maureen.' 'Thank you so much Luna. I appreciate this,' I said appreciatively.'I would do anything for my child. Besides, the next few days after words get out about the fact that I am her birth mother might be tough. Take care of my girl, Lance,' the Luna said looking deep into my eyes as if she wanted to peek into my heart.'Maureen is my mate and

  • My Brother My Mate    Jealousy

    Maureen's POVThe preparation for Lucia's formal introduction to the pack had totally taken my mind off the incident where I nearly killed Lucia.I saw the excitement in Lucia's eyes and also the nervousness. The thought of the fact that she will be introduced as the future Luna must be very overwhelming for a simple girl like Lucia. 'Do you think the pack will accept me?' She had asked the previous night when we were picking the best jewelry for the cloth she was going to wear for the ceremony. 'Why won't they accept you?' I asked looking at her as if I wanted to scold her.'You know I am plained face. I don't think I am beautiful or charismatic enough to be a Luna,' she said sadly.'Are you fishing for compliments?' I asked raising a side of my mouth'What do you mean?' She asked looking confused.'You know you are beautiful Lucia. If you want me to reassure you, just say it,' I answered.'I am just nervous,' she said and I laughed at her. By the time it was morning Lucia was twi

    Maureen's POVLance held my hands above my head and looked deep into my eyes.'You know better than to threaten me like that Maureen,' he said. 'You were doing your thing with Cybil, what do you expect me to do, applaud you?' I asked with anger still in my voice.Do you mean you want to allow other people to touch what is mine?' 'You allowed that whore to touch what is mine. Why can't I do the same?' I asked defiantly.Lance didn't say anything anymore. He simply took my lips with his. At first, I felt reluctant to reciprocate his kisses but as it became more intense, I had no option but to yield to him.He kissed me so hard as if he was trying to convey a message. I felt my insides melt. 'I will make love to you then mark you so that the whole pack and every wolf will know you are mine,' Lance said into my ears after he had removed his lips from mine.I shivered as goose pimples spread all over my body at Lance's voice. He gently released my hands and started unzipping my dress.

  • My Brother My Mate    The Meeting

    Lance's POVI was scared out of my mind but I had to keep it together for Maureen's sake. I stood in the mall and took one thing or the order from the shelf, read whatever was on it, and dropped it. I wasn't even reading the labels. I was only stalling for time. Two nights before I had marked Maureen and like Grandma Gina had said, she started having flashes of memories. Some she told me, some she didn't. At a point that night, I wanted us to go and wake Grandma Gina but Maureen insisted that we waited till morning. I could not sleep till daybreak. When I was sure Grandma Gina would be awake, I told Maureen to let's go to her room.I had mind-linked Dominus that night. I told him everything that was happening. So when we were about to go to Grandma Gina's room, I mind-linked him to join us there.Grandma Gina opened the door to us smiling as usual, not minding the fact that it was early in the morning.Grandma Gina offered us a seat on the couch by the bed while she sat down oppos

    Lance's POVI watched from the glass window of the mall as the stranger stood up from the bench to walk away. Before I could blink, he had disappeared into thin air.I quickly ran out of the mall towards the park. Lucia too had found her way to Maureen. 'Are you sure you are okay?' Lucia was asking Maureen when I got to them.'I am fine. I told you guys that I would be fine,' Maureen said rolling her eyes at Lucia.'Do you blame us for distrusting a stranger?' I asked as I joined them on the bench. 'I didn't see him walk out of this park. He practically disappeared mid step. I had never thought that was possible,' Lucia said looking from one edge of the park to the other.Dominus and the soldiers stood some steps away. Dominus was addressing them. When he was through, he came to stand in front of us.'What did he say to you?' I asked Maureen. 'This is not the place or time to discuss that Lance. Let's get home first,' Dominus said.I had to mentally give kudos to him for stopping m

  • My Brother My Mate    The Mole

    Maureen's POV'What and where is your proof?' The Alpha asked Alpha Amman.'My proof is standing right there,' Alpha Amman said pointing at me. I was shocked to realise that he knew the details of everything. I wondered if Emilia was the one who told him but then we had just met Emilia at the mall. It was not yet an hour. For Alpha Amman to travel from his pack to ours would take him nothing less than two and a half hours by car. But if he decided to get to our pack in his wolf form, he would spend at least one hour fifty minutes.And from his naked form, I knew exactly the form of transportation he decided to take. The distance Alpha Amman had covered had surely written off Emilia as the one who informed him of what was going on. Besides, the Alpha and Luna had not been able to talk to Emilia yet. 'You can't challenge me on mere suspicion Amman. I think you should go back to your pack and mind your own business,' Alpha said. He was angry and it showed in his posture and the way

    Lance's POV'Larry please you can't kill her. We need to know the extent of damage she has caused,' the Luna pleaded.'Please Alpha we need to know all she knows. Please let her go,' my mum pleaded with him.The Luna walked up to him and placed a placating hand on his shoulder and just like that, he dropped Martha on the floor and she coughed harshly as she held a hand to her throat. My dad sighed in relief. I was scared for a minute there that the Alpha would kill Martha and then we would not know the extent of damage she had done by the weight of information she had passed to Alpha Amman.'I want you to start talking this minute else I will tear you into tiny pieces,' the Alpha fumed. The Luna was trying her best to calm him down and the Alpha too was trying his best to calm down as he kept breathing in and out. Martha crawled away from the Alpha while coughing non stop.'I am sorry. He has my mate in his custody and said he would kill him if I didn't get him something which he c

    Lance's POVThere was anxiety and apprehension in the air as the entire pack waited for the Alpha. Every person looked uneasy. I knew the news of Alpha Amman's challenge must have spread as at that time.My dad and the Alpha had come up with the idea that it was better that the Alpha and the Luna explained to the entire pack why Alpha Amman had challenged him.No one wanted an uncertain future. Our pack was peaceful and a cocoon from the mayhem going on in the other packs. 'I am sorry but addressing the whole pack is the only way to calm them down.' The Alpha addressed us later that day after Martha had been dealt with.We knew the Alpha wasn't talking to us because he was looking at his Luna while talking. Mum wrapped protective hands around her best friend. Ian might be right after all, the whole issue was a big storm that got all of us right in the center of it.'How are we going to put it that it will not seem as if we are trying to use pity to manipulate them?'

  • 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

  • My Brother My Mate    Missing

    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

    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

    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

    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
