~Nico~"You need to stay away from me Amara," I said and saw some unexplainable emotions flash on her face which I couldn't wrap my hand around.Does it mean that she couldn't find it in her heart to stay away from me too?I couldn't help but asked myself questions which I had no answers to.Taking a slow sigh,I buried the questions at the back of my mind.Perhaps I was just being paranoid."What? But we are siblings."She reasoned out but I shook my head at her words, "Don't you remember what our parents said? They told us that we need to stick together and support each other in whatever she/he is doing and going through."Amara reminded me our parent's advice.I closed my eyes and raked my hair backwards in frustration."It's best if you distance yourself, Amara. I don't want you to always get into trouble because of me."My heart twisted inside my chest as though someone was squeezing it into a small ball and it was becoming hard for me to breathe.Those words were so sore on my throat a
~Amara~"Amara, I hope you have learned some lessons from what happened, "Luke told me and I nodded to his words.I know Luke wasn't pleased when I sneaked with Nico and went to the party.He was still pissed,he even hated Nicholas more because he thinks that it was his fault.He couldn't stop blaming him for it.I apologised to Beta and Gamma for lying to them.They were easy to understand me and didn't give me a hard time.I spent the whole day with Luke, training and revising some schoolwork. He taught me some things that I couldn't understand and I explained to him where he could understand too.I kept on looking at the Mansion's balcony and sometimes I locked eyes with Nico.However,we didn't say anything to one another.I recalled the way he walked out on me in his room and went to the bathroom to take a shower. My heart twisted inside my chest as though someone was squeezing it into a tiny ball and it was becoming hard for me to breathe.Nico was just stubborn like he has always bee
~Amara~The day passed by pretty fast and our Beta came to fetch us from the campus and we headed back to the pack.Nicholas was still quiet throughout the drive, he was engrossed on his phone and only the heavens knew what he was looking at.Patricia hugged us when we arrived home. Since they came to live with us,I have been looking forward to going back home in the afternoon after campus classes because I knew someone was waiting for me to arrive.The mansion didn't feel that lonely anymore with Patricia around and Nicholas although he's a disaster. Before I used to be all alone in the big mansion. Luke used to keep me company but if he was busy back at their home, I would spend long hours alone until my Dad comes back from his Alpha office.Patricia inquired how our day was back at the campus and we told her there was nothing to worry about.Well, there was a lot to worry about especially his son who keeps on missing lessons and getting into trouble but I chose to keep quiet.I walk
~Hazel~The day I have been waiting for since I was a little girl and heard about the name "mate" was finally here. The day I finally turn eighteen and meet my wolf for the very first time.I was nervous and excited at the same time. I didn't know if I would be able to meet my mate the very day that I meet my wolf.However,it has always been my dream to meet him once I turn eighteen so that we could know each other well.It was every wolf's dream to find their fated mate once they turn eighteen. Finding your fated mate was like your better half. Someone who will want you and be there for you through the darkness and light.It was more like finding the missing part of your heart,your soulmate. Someone who was created specifically for you with the moon goddess.Some called them "the gift from the moon goddess."My mother and dad were fated mates. My Dad told me that he found mom after turning eighteen and I hoped that I would be lucky like him and find my fate.A nervous breath escaped my
~Amara~"Nico is our mate, let's go to him! He's ours, Amara. We have finally found our destined mate, our gift from the moon goddess. Isn't that what you have been waiting for?"My wolf said, just confirming my nightmare.I could hear the excitement in Isabella's voice. My wolf was happy that we had finally found our fated mate few minutes after our first shift. I could tell that she was dying to meet him and hold him in her arms and those were my dreams too.Indeed it was true that when you have a wolf,he/she thinks the same way that you think and feel how you feel deep down."Amara, are you okay?"I heard my dad's voice inside my head.I guess he realised that I was in trance,he was worried about me. I turned my wolf's head to look at my father, turned around then ran in the woods.I couldn't believe that indeed Nicholas was my fated mate. It took me by surprise. We have been living under the same roof for the past three months but…I never knew that he would turn out to be my fated.I
~Amara~My father was stiff at first because he wasn't expecting it.However, he relaxed then hugged me back tightly and patted my back to help me calm down. Instead of calming down, I cried even more because I couldn't help it. I just wanted to let out the pain I was feeling deep inside my heart and the best way was to cry it off in my Dad's arms."What is wrong?"My father looked at me with gentle eyes as he asked the question and I took a deep breath to compose myself.I know he could tell that something was off and that was why he asked My Dad knows me better that anyone else.He knows when I'm happy,sad or disturbed with something because he has been watching over me for the past ten years."I'm just happy."I lied, looking into his eyes because I had nothing else to say. How was I supposed to explain to my father that I was crying because I was heartbroken when I found out that my mate is Nicholas?My Step-brother?My dad and I sat at my study table on the chair inside my room and I
~Amara~I woke to the annoying sound of an alarm, reminding me that it was morning and I needed to go to campus.I lazily got out of the bed and headed to the bathroom to take a shower.When I was done in the bathroom, I changed then picked up my bag and headed downstairs to prepare myself a cup of coffee to start my day and help me with the headache.I know my head was pounding because of the previous day's realisations.I spent the whole night thinking about it but nothing made sense to me.I walked to the coffee maker and got myself busy preparing the coffee.My senses became more alert when I felt someone behind me.His musk scent hit my nostrils and it awakened the fire inside me.I wanted to throw myself at him and inhale the scent deep in my lungs.I felt my canines elongate and I couldn't help but ran my tongue over it to soothe the itching or else I would pounce at him and sink them so deep in the flesh on his neck and claim him.The need to be close to him was driving me insane.Howe
~Nicholas~"You're finally back home son!"My mother said happily when I entered the mansion and I gave her a weak smile.I could tell that she worried about me but when she laid her eyes on me, she looked so relaxed. I was tired from the massive training back on campus.I didn't want our basketball team to lose the tournament like what happened the last time we played with St Louis campus. Even though I didn't want to admit it, it hurt me so much when our team lost the tournament.My mother hugged me so tightly and I hugged her back. It felt so warm to come home, it felt even more good when my mother welcomed me with a hug.I liked it here in Silver Pack, Amara's pack. The place looked so beautiful and it was peaceful, away from the busy city where Mother and I were staying while she worked in a bakery.Now I didn't need to worry that much about our house bills and go to work for extra hours after campus to help Mom pay the bills.Each day I woke up and saw a smile on my mom's face. I
