last update Last Updated: 2024-09-13 19:42:31

The four of us finished our breakfast together.

To be honest, most of the time, Kate and I just sat there watching Aunt Carol and David shower each other with affection. I had never seen such a clingy pair of mates. My parents were very close, but they never fed each other omelets during breakfast, let alone sprinkled it with countless kisses. It was clear they were deeply in love, and they weren’t afraid to show it.

Kate seemed used to it. She’d been around them long enough to understand their dynamic. I could see why she looked forward to finding her own mate so much and why she was worried about the way I had handled my relationship with Michael. She had built up such high expectations for her future mate bond, and seeing the reality of it—the good and the bad—had scared her.

After breakfast, David left to attend to some pack duties, and Aunt Carol had pre-arranged meetings, so they both went their separate ways. Kate decided she needed a nap to recover from the early wake-up call

    I followed Alex deeper into the forest, retracing the path we had taken earlier. The forest's lush canopy above created dappled patterns of light on the ground, and with each step, I grew more excited and nervous. It had been a week since I last saw Michael, and my heart beat faster with every step, like a rabbit preparing to leap out of my chest. I could already picture him in my mind—his boyish yet rugged charm, his curly brown hair, warm brown eyes, and that fresh, sweet scent that always enveloped me in comfort."Go straight ahead from here. He's in the clearing," Alex said, pointing ahead.I followed Alex's gesture, my thoughts racing with the anticipation of our reunion. Would Michael sweep me up in a hug or kiss me in front of everyone, then whisk me back to his place? I found myself smiling at the thought—whatever he did, I knew I would be okay with it.Suddenly, a thought struck me: if Michael were to lose control, the Ancient Woods Pack could be caught up in the mess. I didn

  • My Twin Alpha Stepbrother Mates   71 Gloomy Mood

    When Alex and I first left the house, the sun was so bright that I could barely open my eyes. But somewhere along the way, the sky began to change. Black clouds slowly rolled in, covering the sun and casting a heavy shadow over everything. The air became thick and damp, almost suffocating, as if the whole sky was about to collapse onto me. I could feel the pressure bearing down, making it hard to breathe. The wind picked up, and the branches of the surrounding trees rustled and swayed violently.As I stared at Robert standing before me, all the tension, excitement, and joy I had felt on the way here vanished. My mood grew as gloomy as the darkening sky above.Once, I had imagined Robert as the one who would be with me for the rest of my life. He was supposed to be the person who would offer me a safe harbor, a place where my heart could find rest and peace. I had envisioned a future filled with happiness and contentment. But he shattered those dreams with his own hands. His hypocrisy,

    The anger, the pain, all the hatred I had for Robert—honestly, it was gone. Now, I felt nothing at all. He was like a stranger to me, someone so distant that he couldn't even stir a single emotion. But my eyes stayed locked on his twisted grin and those dark, malicious eyes of his.I was starting to regret telling Alex to leave. Robert was clearly unhinged, and he looked like he could snap at any moment.“You’re still as stunning as ever, Cecily, my mate,” Robert’s voice was oily and made my skin crawl. He sounded like a creep, a total pervert.I noticed his eyes were fixed on my bare thighs, his gaze crawling up my legs like a swarm of maggots. I felt sick to my stomach. I regretted running away from Michael. Michael was the only one who’d ever made my heart race, and I’d stupidly walked away from him.“I’m not your mate anymore. Your mate is Alison. You picked her, and I’ve already rejected you,” I shot back, my voice cold.“Don’t mention that b*tch’s name,” he snapped.Robert cut m

    As Robert licked his lips, he said with a twisted grin, "Listen, Cecily. You can never get away from me. No matter where you run, I’ll always find you. Even that Lycan prince can’t hide you from me. This is fate. And today, right here, you’re going to be mine."The wind howled through the forest, each gust stronger than the last. The branches above snapped under the pressure, and the birds squawked as they fled. Thunder rumbled in the distance, signaling that a storm was closing in.I took a quick look around, desperately trying to get a sense of my surroundings. I knew Alpha Alex must have left by now, and it was clear I had to deal with Robert on my own. My mind raced for a way out. I wasn’t familiar with this terrain—Alex had led me both times we walked here. But I remembered there was a pond behind me. If I could somehow push Robert into it, I might buy myself enough time to escape.Robert's hands were already closing in on my neck, and I could tell what he wanted. He was trying t

    Robert's wolfish yellow eyes stared me down, suspicious and filled with a kind of unhinged hunger. I took a deep breath, trying to keep my voice calm, almost soothing. "Look, Robert, I’m just proposing a plan that could work for both of us. You want to mark me, right? Well, I’m already caught—I can’t do anything to stop you. So what are you afraid of?"His eyes flickered with doubt, but I could see he was considering it. "You're strong, and every she-wolf wants a piece of you," I continued, forcing a little admiration into my tone. "It’s an honor to get your attention, really. I was just too stupid before to realize it. You showed how fast and powerful you are when you caught me. Now, I’ve thought it through. We don’t have to fight over something like this, do we?"A twisted smile crept across his face as he leaned in, his body pressing against mine. "Alright, I’ll hear you out," he said, his breath hot against my face. "Tell me, baby, what position do you want? I promise to make you

    I glanced around one last time, feeling the dread creep in as Robert lunged at me again. I squeezed my eyes shut, bracing myself for the worst. The thunder was roaring above, and the rain was coming down so hard that it drowned out everything else. It was pitch dark all around, and I knew in my heart—no one was coming to save me.Even if Michael had somehow figured out where I’d gone, by the time he reached me, it would be too late. Robert would already have dragged me away to some hidden place that nobody knew about. Michael wouldn’t find me, and I’d be marked and chained in some dark corner by Robert. Just like he promised, I'd live a life worse than death.And all of this? This mess was all my fault. If I hadn’t been so stubborn about running away, Robert wouldn’t have had this chance to corner me and try to mark me. Michael would’ve been there to protect me. Mia wouldn’t be suffering right now because of my stupid decisions.You know what they say—don’t step into the same river tw

    Robert was hurled against a tree, the same one he had tried to pin me to earlier. The golden wolf was relentless, smacking Robert’s face back and forth with his massive claws. Blood streamed from the deep cuts on Robert’s face, which had now swollen to the size of a pig’s head.I stood there, stunned, watching it all unfold. My anger had quickly shifted to fear. This golden beast wasn’t just trying to defeat Robert; he seemed set on killing him. And it wasn’t going to be a quick death, either. It was like watching a puppet master toy with his puppet, tormenting it over and over until it broke completely.A conflict rose within me. As much as I despised what Robert had done to me, I couldn’t stand to watch him die like this.Then, I heard footsteps approaching from the forest. I turned and saw a group of familiar faces—Sasha and Samuel leading the way. They wore serious expressions as they stared at the scene, but none of them made a move to help.It took a moment for my brain to catch

    Everyone turned their gaze toward me as I dashed forward. They all knew the danger of approaching a werewolf in a frenzy. But I had no choice—I had to do this.“Get back!” I heard Sasha’s frantic voice echo behind me. “You’re going to get yourself killed!”I glanced back to see Sasha trying to follow me, but a man blocked her path. She was struggling against him, but he held firm.As I got closer to Michael, something incredible happened. The strength in my body surged back. Moments ago, I could barely stand, but now I felt more stable, my legs steady beneath me. It was true that a werewolf’s mate could draw strength from their bond. My senses sharpened, and over the roar of the rain, I heard Sasha arguing with the man holding her back.“What are you doing? Let me go!” she yelled. “Cecily’s going to die! Michael’s not himself right now. Anyone who gets close is an enemy to him! We’ve seen it before—he won’t snap out of it until his beast is completely unleashed.”“My job is to protect

    During that time, Joanna was always off somewhere, traveling by herself. No one knew where she went. She would leave for long stretches, sometimes disappearing for years, and didn’t bother checking in with anyone. Naturally, her parents freaked out, not knowing if she was safe or if something bad had happened to her.As I sat there by the water, Sasha handed me a drink. It was this weird, green liquid that I wasn’t sure about at first, but after a sip, I realized it was lemon tea, with a hint of mint. Not bad at all, really refreshing."And then?" I asked, curious about what happened next with Joanna.Sasha sighed, shaking her head like she regretted it a little. “Well, her parents eventually went to Michael's dad for help. Since Michael was good at handling this kind of stuff, his dad put him in charge of finding Joanna.”I sipped my drink again, enjoying the way the mint cooled me down from the inside. "So, Michael went after her?"Sasha looked at me with a mix of guilt and understa

    Joanna might be an amazing actress, but honestly? She's not fooling me. It's like she's playing a role, trying to be someone she's not—probably because she can't stand that Michael and I are together. I could feel her trying to mess with us, but I wasn’t about to let her win. If she wanted to act, well, I could act too.The sunlight felt warm on my skin as I stood there watching her. I smiled confidently, letting Joanna see me looking totally unbothered. She dove into the water with all the grace of a fish. I had to admit, she did have an incredible body—she was rocking a white bikini that had these thin straps crisscrossing over her chest and waist, making her look like some kind of living sculpture. Even the lower half of her bikini had those same crisscrossing straps under her belly button. Honestly, it was a look.Meanwhile, Sasha was already in the water, her swimsuit much louder and flashier than Joanna's. She was wearing this fluorescent green bikini with stripes and a skirt th

    Joanna’s POV“So, I’m not the kind of girl who lets a man push her around. After all that happened, I left anyway. But no matter how long I stayed away, I’d always get messages from Michael. Some of them were about family stuff, other times he’d talk about finding his mate or being engaged or something. Honestly, it was pretty confusing for me during that time.”Despite saying she was troubled, a small smile crept onto Joanna's face as if remembering something amusing.“Eventually, I figured out that all of those excuses were just Michael’s way of trying to get me to come back. There was never a fiancée or mate. It was all just a big story. So, I was a little surprised when I heard this morning that you two were mates. But, hey, you’re mates arranged by the Moon Goddess, so everything should be fine, right?”Joanna finished her little story with a bright smile, clearly satisfied with herself. But me? I was furious. My fists were clenched so tightly, I could feel my nails digging into

    It wasn't until Michael had completely disappeared from view that I became aware of the unsettling stare from behind. I could feel Joanna’s eyes boring into me, but I refused to acknowledge her directly. Instead, I turned and made my way toward my room, hoping to escape the tension she brought with her presence.But, of course, Joanna just happened to be standing in my path.She wore that same infuriating smile, the one that didn’t quite reach her eyes. "Your relationship with Michael seems... strong. You’re quite adorable when you're with him, Cecily."Her words dripped with something—sarcasm? Malice? It was hard to tell. I wasn’t sure what she was getting at, but I didn’t care to find out. I wasn’t in the mood to engage with her."I'm heading back to my room," I said, keeping my tone as neutral as possible."I know I upset you yesterday, and for that, I’m truly sorry," Joanna replied, taking a step closer as if that would make her words more sincere. "I didn’t mean to offend you. Le

    Joanna's giggle echoed through the room, its beauty contrasting with the venomous intent behind it. Her voice was as sweet as a siren’s, but I could feel the malicious undertones. "Former friends, Sasha? That's not quite accurate. Michael and I were more than friends."I knew Joanna was up to no good. I had seen it in her eyes the moment I met her. Whatever her goal was—whether to make me jealous, provoke anger, or worse—I wasn’t going to give her the satisfaction of seeing me unravel.She turned her gaze toward Michael, who remained focused on his coffee cup, now almost empty. He hadn’t acknowledged her presence, which gave me some comfort, but Joanna wasn’t finished. "If you two are truly mates," she said, her voice dripping with false innocence, "may I ask, was it the Moon Goddess who arranged this, or did Michael choose you?"Her question cut deep, even though it was wrapped in a seemingly casual tone. I clenched my fists under the table, my wolf surging with rage. Joanna was impl

    "Would you like to come downstairs for breakfast, or should I bring it up to you?" Michael asked, his voice soft and tender. As he spoke, he reached out, gently brushing a strand of hair away from my face. His touch sent a warm shiver down my spine, the closeness between us undeniable.I found myself smiling at Michael, wondering how I hadn’t fully appreciated this side of him before. I had always been so caught up in our arguments, his domineering ways, and the battles for control that I had somehow missed these moments where he could be... sweet. The realization washed over me—there was more to him than the arrogance and possessiveness I had been focusing on. If I allowed myself to let go of the tension between us, there was an undeniable pleasure in being with him.“I’d like to go downstairs to eat,” I replied with a soft smile, feeling more at ease than I had in a while.We walked down the stairs together, and I found myself momentarily at peace. But as we descended, my mind wande

    The night had ended in a comfortable silence, with both of us content in each other's presence. By the time I had finished my tasks, Michael was still seated at his desk, absorbed in a pile of paperwork. His brow furrowed in concentration, and I didn’t have the heart to disturb him, nor did I want to leave his side. So, I watched him, feeling the steady calm he radiated.Before I knew it, I had dozed off in the warm cocoon of the study, lulled by the scent of Michael that filled the room. It wasn’t long before I felt someone gently lift me. I knew it was Michael, and feeling safe in his arms, I allowed myself to drift deeper into sleep.When I finally woke up, the morning light was already creeping in through the curtains. My body felt well-rested and refreshed. At some point during the night, I had been changed into my pajamas, and I couldn’t help but wonder if Michael had been the one to wash and dress me while I slept. A small smile tugged at my lips at the thought.I glanced to my

    "Oh god, absolutely not," Michael exclaimed, his voice laced with frustration. "Yes, we had a relationship in the past, but we broke up a long time ago. Joanna came by a few times after that, but it wasn’t for me. She had business with Samuel and others. I was too busy to even notice when she came or left. But I swear, Cecily, nothing happened between us after we ended things."I turned to face him, my mind clouded with uncertainty. Should I believe him? Jealousy burned inside me, poisoning my thoughts. The mere idea of him being intimate with Joanna made my skin crawl."My little wolf," Michael's voice softened as he lifted my chin gently. His expression was tinged with regret. "If you want me to apologize for my past, I can. But remember, I’ve lived a long life, Cecily. I’m not a saint—I’ve had relationships, felt emotions, just like anyone else. But if you're blaming me for something more than that, it's unfair. I’ve never been in two relationships at the same time. When I met you,

    "I can't just pretend nothing happened, especially after my wolf reacted the way it did." I shrugged, trying to stay calm. "I need to know, Michael. I'd rather hear it from you than find out through Sasha."Michael hesitated, his brown eyes locked on mine as if weighing his options. I held his gaze, determined to get the truth. If he wanted honesty between us, he needed to practice it too."Okay," he muttered, running his hand through his hair, clearly uncomfortable. "She's... a friend."A friend? Joanna's behavior toward Michael was far from friendly. It was passionate, intense—nothing like the casual interactions between Sasha and him. I took a deep breath and asked the question I had been avoiding but couldn't ignore any longer."An ex-girlfriend?"Michael's expression stiffened. He didn’t nod, but he didn’t shake his head either. Silence hung between us, thick and heavy. I knew the truth was coming, but it didn’t make the waiting any easier. If Michael wanted me to be honest with
