I stalked out the front door, my prior embarrassment dissipating to make way for irritation and annoyance. I saw his car parked just outside the garden gate and huffed, stomping my way toward it just as the first tiny raindrops began to fall from the sky."Wait!" Tyler called, hurrying after me.I halted, my jaw clenched as I waited for him, the drizzle becoming more persistent."I'm sorry," he apologized, taking my hand in his as he stopped in front of me. "I know you're mad. I'm sorry I was early. I didn't mean to embarrass you or anything, I was just excited to see you. I kinda hoped you might be ready," he explained, his self-awareness taking me by surprise.He was excited to see me? How could I be mad about that?I sighed and rolled my eyes, not wanting to let him off the hook completely just yet, but in my heart, I'd already forgiven him ten times over."I'm sorry," he repeated sincerely. "I'll make it up to you," he assured me."How? Will you be watching movies in a towel all af

His words hung in the air, thick with implication and the weight of unspoken truths.The instant he said them, I knew it was true. The pull I'd felt this time hadn't been for Tyler, it had been for this other guy, his twin brother."You never said you were twins?" I whispered, looking up at Tyler with surprise as I tried to wrap my head around this turn of events."I didn't think to. I guess it's common knowledge around here, but I suppose I didn't really consider that you're not from around here. But wait... you're his mate?" he asked, needing me to clarify the life-altering fact I had simply glossed over.I wasn't sure what to say. It felt like we were in a Mexican standoff, each of us shifting our gaze from one to the other, waiting for someone to say something.When I didn't reply, he looked to his brother for answers. "Ryder?""Yeah, she's my mate," he said, his tone firm and unapologetic."Kate?" Tyler said, looking back to me for confirmation.He didn't look angry or upset, but

Tyler and Ryder remained under the awning, watching as we drove away."What happened, honey?" Aunt Mara asked, her tone filled with worry and concern.I kept it together a moment longer, waiting until we were out on the street before I let go. I sobbed. It was as if I had sprung a leak the way the tears simply flowed from my eyes."Honey? What's going on?! Did they hurt you?!" Aunt Mara pressed, obviously concerned now that I'd been the victim of some terrible act or something.I had to set the record straight. I couldn't have her thinking my mate... Wait, correction, my MATES were complete and utter reprobates."No," I managed to choke out. "Nothing like that," I tried to assure her, but I'm pretty sure that the delivery was unconvincing."Then why are you crying like this? What happened, Katelyn?" she urged desperately.I tried to take a deep breath, but it caught in my throat. I pressed on regardless, knowing that I needed to give her an explanation."They're... They're both my mate

Ryder picked me up. He arrived in a huge black Hummer that probably would have blocked out the sun had there been any.I ran through the rain, clutching Tyler's jacket to me for warmth. I'd brought it with me to return it, but to be honest, it was also bringing me some level of comfort and I wasn't really sure how I was going to part with it."If you'd waited two seconds I would have brought the umbrella," Ryder said, gesturing to the black umbrella he had in his hand as he sat in the driver's seat."I'm fine, it wasn't so bad," I lied, trying to downplay the fact that I'd just run through what felt like a fucking tsunami and was absolutely soaked.I pulled my hood back and shook out my damp hair before I slumped against the seat. "So what have you guys decided?" I asked, giving Ryder a searching look as he pulled away."We can all discuss it together when we're back at the house," he said firmly, clearly not wanting to divulge any of the details without his brother.I sighed, resignin

"Why would I be jealous?" he asked seriously. "Does the mate bond feel less for me than it does for Tyler?" he asked, searching my face for answers."No," I replied honestly, pursing my lips and seeing his point."Exactly. If you feel the same way about both of us, then I've got nothing to be jealous of. I think it would probably come down to schedules and availability... Which means you'll probably be stuck with me a lot of the time, anyway," Ryder said with a mischievous grin."What do you mean?" I asked, uncertain why I'd be stuck with him more often."My schedule is pretty hectic," Tyler revealed, his shoulders slumping as he said it. It was obvious the guy was under immense pressure.I took a deep breath and considered the proposal for a minute. I leaned forward, resting my head in my hands and groaning. Then I sat up again and regarded them both."I dunno guys. It's cool that you'll be okay with it, but I don't know that I can get it through my head that it's not like some massiv

Wrong...It started well enough. The boys led me to an enormous entertainment room where Tyler already had snacks, blankets, and pillows set out, probably in anticipation of our earlier failed 'date'. The TV was huge and the surround sound really made the experience super immersive. I was eager to just lay back and chill, allowing my brain a break from worrying about my current problems.I was huddled beneath a soft, fuzzy purple blanket and we were watching a comedy, something funny and lighthearted and not serious at all. Probably Tyler's attempt to ease any tension between the three of us. Within 15 minutes though, I had Tyler's hand in mine, our fingers gently stroking and caressing one another, the sensation soothing and calming. On my other side, I suddenly had Ryder's hand on my thigh, and it was wandering ever higher and higher, though the movement was so subtle and slow that it was almost imperceptible.Tyler's touch was calming while Ryder's fingers felt exciting and thrillin

Tyler froze midway into sitting, his attention now focused in the direction of the voice. "We're in here" he called out, immediately straightening up.In contrast, Ryder slouched even further into the sofa with a resigned sigh. "Here we go," he muttered under his breath.I felt sick, my anxiety peaking. I was about to meet the Alpha and Luna of the River Gorge Pack. My mates' parents.I stood, squeezing as close to Tyler as I could without seeming weird. He obviously sensed my discomfort and wrapped an arm around my shoulder, giving me a light squeeze.The woman who casually strolled into the room was nothing like I had imagined. She was tall and graceful with a presence that filled the room. Her hair was a soft brown, probably similar to my own natural color, with streaks of silver that hinted at her wisdom and experience. Her eyes were a warm hazel color and they scanned the room, predictably landing on me with curiosity."And this must be your mate?" she asked, her gaze shifting fro

I snatched it back as if it were on fire. "The fuck dude?" I murmured in shocked disbelief, but he only chuckled."I just had to check the 'total slut' theory," he replied with a shrug.I glared at him. I was about to tell him how wildly inappropriate that had been, but then I figured that was probably the reaction he'd been hoping for. So I went in a different direction."Wow... That was disappointing. But Tyler is your 'big' brother, right?" I asked hopefully, trying to sound as believable as possible.It was now his turn to gasp in shocked disbelief. "What?!"I shrugged. "I'm not sure what reaction you were hoping for, Ryder. I guess I kinda expected more," I went on casually as I pulled Tyler's jacket around myself tightly and gave Ryder a pitying look.The wheels of his mind working, trying to figure out whether I was joking or not. Unfortunately, my acting abilities only went so far and the look of panic and discomfort on his face made me break character.I cracked a smile and he

I adjusted my grip on the tiny, squirming bundle in my arms and smiled as a chorus of laughter echoed through the Valentine house."Could you hold her for a sec?" I asked Ryder, shifting Ava into a more comfortable position. "I forgot my phone downstairs.""Absolutely," he replied, his face lighting up as he took her from me.I had to admit, Ryder had surprised me. Iâd always known Tyler would step up to fatherhood like it was his destiny, but Ryder⊠I thought he might need a little more coaxing along the way.To my relief, and, I'll be honest, surprise, that hadnât been the case at all.Ryder had embraced fatherhood like a natural. Late-night feeds? He was right there with me. Diapers? No problem. Making sure I ate? He was relentless. And the way he loved our daughter, with every fiber of his being... God, it melted my heart daily.Tyler, on the other hand, was exactly the dad Iâd known heâd be. He was steady, dependable, and endlessly patient. Where Ryder brought the energy and fun,

(Katelyn's POV)I nodded slowly, processing it all as I tried to picture it in my mind's eye."Oh! And get this!" Ryder piped up with an excited grin. "Michael, the guy you wrapped around the pillar? He's Simon's cousin!""What?! How do you know that?" I asked, confused.Tyler replied this time, "Well, when we were leaving, we bumped into Simon in one of those long, winding corridors. He started going off at us asking where we were going and if we had permission to leave, blah blah blah... But Helen shut him down. She told him that the decision had been made and instead of giving us a hard time he should probably go and check on his cousin because the last time she saw him, he didn't look so good.""You should have seen his face," Ryder smirked, chuckling to himself. "He just stood there for a moment, still blocking our path, but then I think something clicked in his head. He probably saw that we were all covered in blood and shit and realized that something was wrong and he practicall
My Twin Alpha Valentines   Chapter 398: Sanctuary (Katelyn's POV)
(Katelyn's POV)The first thing I registered was the sound of hushed voices and the faint smell of lavender.My eyelids felt like theyâd been superglued shut, but after what felt like an Olympic-level effort, I finally managed to pry them open.My vision swam, the room around me looking like a watercolor painting that someone had left out in the rain.Where was I? WHO was I? It felt like I had been asleep for a hundred years.I blinked repeatedly, willing my vision to focus, but when it finally did, nothing seemed familiar.It was dark, from what I could tell, and the only light was coming from a lamp somewhere on the other side of the room.I shifted onto my elbow, trying to sit up, but I instantly regretted it. Pain throbbed in my skull, my head spinning like Iâd spent hours on some rotating carnival ride. A groan escaped me, and the low murmurs nearby stopped immediately.âKate?â A voice cut through the haze... Familiar, warm, desperate.My gaze darted toward the sound, and there t
My Twin Alpha Valentines   Chapter 397: Revival (Katelyn's POV)
(Katelyn's POV)She was furious, but not with me. I could feel her... like a storm raging inside me, raw and untamed. I waited in the quiet shelter of my own mind, nothing more than an observer as I watched her wrath unfold. It was like witnessing a hurricane from the safety of a bunker, awe and terror warring inside me."We... We didn't know!" the iron-haired womanâs voice quivered, her arms raised defensively, as if they could shield her from the Goddess's divine fury."You didn't know?! You didn't know that you were exploiting them? Or you didn't know that I would care?" the Moon Goddes spoke through my lips, her words flowing like liquid thunder."I... We..." the woman stammered, her eyes darting around desperately, searching for someone, ANYONE, to come to her rescue. But no one did. No one dared to move. They were all frozen like statues in the face of the storm."You willâ" the words spilled from my mouth, but I somehow managed to cut them off abruptly when I heard Tyler's angu
My Twin Alpha Valentines   Chapter 396: Finality (Tyler's POV)
(Tyler's POV)"I don't know what to do," Kate whispered, her voice filled with helplessness as she looked up at me while I struggled against the attendants who held me in place."Let him go," she ordered, authority resonating through her voice in a way I'd never heard before.When they hesitated, she glanced toward the man she'd just sent flying through the air like a puppet as some kind of silent warning of her power.That seemed like enough for them to release me.The second I was free, I fell down beside her, desperate to stop the blood that was pouring from Ryder's neck. It was coming out so fast it was clear that they must have gotten an artery, the blood pulsating out of the wound in steady throbs."What do we do?" she whispered, looking to me for answers I didn't have.I reached out, holding my hand over hers in some futile attempt to stop the bleeding, but it was like trying to hold back a flood with a fucking paper towel.His neck was a mangled wreck. The flesh was torn open t
My Twin Alpha Valentines   Chapter 395: Justice (Katelyn's POV)
(Katelyn's POV)Tylerâs hand trembled as he held it in place over mine, trying desperately to stop the blood that continued to pulse out, albeit at a much slower pace now.His voice was a whisper and it wavered with desperation. "Youâre going to be okay, Ryder. You hear me? Just hang on. Justâ" he broke off, choking back a sob as his other hand found its way to Ryderâs blood-matted fur as he rubbed him affectionately.He looked at me, his face pale and his eyes swimming with tears that he tried uselessly to blink away.âKate...â His voice cracked, barely audible above the rapid, shallow breaths of his brother. âThe bleeding... itâs too much. Heâs not healing fast enough.âHis words struck me like a dagger to the chest. I'd thought it, but hearing him say it out loud made it real.âWhat are you saying?!â I cried, my voice raw and broken as I gripped Ryderâs limp paw, shaking it in hopes of some kind of reaction. My vision blurred as I let the tears spill down my cheeks. âIs he going to
My Twin Alpha Valentines   Chapter 394: The Ember (Katelyn's POV)
(Katelyn's POV)Through a blur of tears, I found myself face to face with the broad-shouldered Elder, Michael."You're an abomination!" he snarled, his hands gripping my arms with a ferocity that promised bruises. "You're a curse! A witch! A temptress! Do you know how my family has suffered because of you?!" he spat as he shook me violently, his eyes filled with absolute rage."But... I..." I stammered, trying to form words into sentences, but my brain couldn't do it.All I could do was stare at him, still reeling from the fact that one second I had been kneeling beside Ryder, trying to help him, and the next, I was being violently shaken by a man who seemed to have gone full psycho."Katelyn?!" Tyler called out, realizing I was no longer at his side.Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him struggling against about three or four attendants who tried to hold him back.Suddenly, pain shot through my cheek and the world around me fell into a darkness that seemed to ebb and flow like the t
My Twin Alpha Valentines   Chapter 393: Fault Lines (Katelyn's POV)
(Katelyn's POV)For a moment, the entire room froze and my ears rang with the word exterminated."We're leaving," Tyler said, his voice low as he snatched me by the wrist and tugged me toward the door.The attendants remained though, none of them making any move to unblock our path. Instead, they all looked toward the iron-haired woman as if waiting for her to give them some instruction."Move," Tyler demanded sharply as Ryder appeared on my other side."We aren't finished here," the iron-haired woman called out as three more attendants appeared to block our exit."She wants to leave," Ryder replied, his voice filled with venom as he turned to address her."We aren't finished," she repeated, her voice cold and sharp as steel."I thought you said this was a hearing," I shot back, glaring at her. "Was there some line in the invitation about being held against my will? Because if there was, I mustâve missed that part," I spat, trying to hide my growing fear with sarcasm.The room fell si
My Twin Alpha Valentines   Chapter 392: The Uprising (Katelyn's POV)
(Katelyn's POV)The iron-haired woman watched me, her grip on her notes tightening once more. Her restraint was evident as she took a deep breath before finally replying. âYou have already been told, Miss Grey, that this meeting is for us to ascertainââI cut her off, my own patience now unraveling fast. âGod, you canât even give me a straight answer! What are the potential outcomes here?!â I demanded. "Even criminals on trial know what potential penalties they'll be facing! Why can't I be afforded the same courtesy?! Are you going to impose some kind of limitations on me and my abilities? Or do you plan to lock me in a prison cell? Or maybe a tower in the middle of nowhere? Are you going to kill me? Seriously, what options are on the table here?!" I pressed, annoyed by how fucking evasive she was being.It felt like they had already made up their minds here. While a few of them did seem to be on my side, it's clear that many of them were not. And those who sat on the fence would likel
