Chapter Three

last update Last Updated: 2024-09-19 10:22:44

“Pack your bags, Amy.” My mom came in, surprising me from the list I was making. 

“What?” I looked up. “Why?”

“You are going to spend the summer with your father. I already got the approval from the Alpha.” Mom smiled down at me. “Come on, baby. Pack your bag and get ready.”

I jumped to my feet and ran to my mom. “I can go?”

“Just for the summer, baby, then you will be back here with me. I had to promise that you would be returning here.”

I pouted. “Mom, I really don’t want to be here.” I wanted to make them pay, but I wouldn’t risk him finding me.

“It’s okay baby, you will understand once you see your dad.” She patted my hair and kissed my cheek. “Now get ready.”

“Okay mom.” I kissed her back then she left me alone. I grabbed my phone to lock it and then turned back to my closet. I packed my bag and then headed into my bathroom when I heard the downstairs door slam open. 

“I fucking knew it.” I heard Shannon scream down stairs. I ignored her as I grabbed everything from my bathroom and then I grabbed my laptop and chargers. I stuffed everything in to my backpack and headed downstairs.

“Shannon, why are you screaming?” Morgan was at the table with his coffee, and my mom was running around when I pushed my suitcase into the room. 

“I’m not Brandon’s mate, daddy.” Shannon flew into the room and dove into his arms. 

“How are you so sure?” Morgan wrapped his arms around her, but I just snickered. She snapped her eyes to me and she flew at me.

“It’s you. You stupid whore.” Shannon tried to claw out my eyes. But I just sent her flying with a backhand.

“Amy!” Morgan got to his feet but my mom tsked. 

“Morgan, you can’t yell ay Amy for protecting herself. Shan attacked her first.” My mom placed my breakfast on the table. “Amy, come eat. You have a long day ahead.”

“Babe? Why does Amy have a suitcase?”

“She is going away for the summer. To her fathers.” My mother turned to me and opened her arms. “Come baby. Come eat. The car is coming and you need to be ready to go.”

I walked over and sat down, and dug in. 

“Why is she going to her dads?” Morgan walked over to pick Shannon up. 

“She wanted to spend the summer with her dads before college and who am I to say no?” My mom smiled down at me and I smiled back at her. I didn’t know what was going to happen this summer to protect me from Brandon finding out I was his mate, but I needed it. Whatever it was, I needed it. 

“Yeah, my dad called me this morning and since I haven’t seen him since Christmas break and when he offered to fly me out, I asked my mom.” I smiled sweetly over at Morgan, and Shannon smiled. 

“You’re leaving?” Shannon stood up.

“Yup. I’ll be gone the full summer.” I smirked over at her. “But my room is locked, and it will stay that way.” My smile dropped away as I stared at her and used my alpha command. 

“Amy!” Morgan yelled out. “You know you’re not allowed to alpha command your step sister!” 

“And I wouldn’t have Morgan, if I hdn’t found her in my room this morning, trying to take things out of my closet.” I turned and raised my eyebrow, daring her to try to lie. 

“Is that true?” Morgan looked down at Shannon and I just stared at her. I watch her open her mouth to deny it.

“I wouldn’t lie. I’ll just command you to tell the truth.” She screeched and stomped her foot.

“Yes!” she screamed. “Are you happy? Yes, I went into her closet to steal some clothes because I know she is Brandon’s mate.”

“How?” I threw up my hands, playing like I didn’t know the truth. “How could you possibly know that I am his mate? Neither of us has scented each other.”

“Because he scented you on me!” Her voice was hitting a higher octave, and my ears were starting to hurt.

“Calm down. You’re hurting everyone’s ears and just explain yourself.” My mom sat next to me at the table, rubbing her head.

“Last month, Brandon turned eighteen, and I was wearing Amy’s dress. He scented around me and said I smelt divine. But when I’m not wearing her clothes, he has zero interest in me.” Shannon pouted.

“So he likes the way I smell, doesn’t mean we are mates.” I pointed out. Completely and utterly denouncing Brandon as a mate. If I didn’t accept him, he would never be my mate anyway, and I would never accept him. That was the only thing I was sure of.

Brandon would be the last male I would ever touch this time around.

“Stop being obtuse Amy. We all know what it means when a wolf likes your smell.” Shannon started to cry and buried her head in her hands. “He’s the male I want, daddy. The only one I would ever accept. But he wants her.” She pointed to me. 

I scoffed. “I don’t want your sloppy seconds, Shannon. Even if he was my mate, and I am not saying he is. It would be a cold day in hell before I accepted him as a mate. I would take the Lycan King over Brandon.” I threw my head back and laughed when she gasped.

The Lycan king was the bogeyman of all wolves. 

The last Lycan to exist and one who lives in the wild. It’s said the only wolves that ever see his face are the council that oversees the packs. 

But either way, I wasn’t lying. I would take the King as a mate before I would even look in Brandon’s vicinity.

“You’re lying. He’s the alpha.”

“And?”

“Everyone wants to be the luna.”

“Idiots want to be the luna.” I turned back and finished my food as Morgan calmed her down. My mom stood when she heard a horn.

“That’s for you.”

I nodded as I stood and kissed my mother goodbye before I left.

    I slipped into the back of the car after putting my bags in the back and buckled in. I had barely takin a breath before I launched myself over the seats and into the driver’s arms.His laugh made my eyes prickle. “Hey love bug.”“Uncle Ronnie. I’ve missed you.” I climbed over the seats and sat up front. “What are you doing here?” Ronnie was my dad’s beta. Not related, but he had been there for most of my life. “You think I was going to let my cheeky niece come to pack lands alone? Not on your life.” “Dad sent you?” I laughed.“Dad sent me. He is a worry wart your da.” He smiled over and laughed with me. “As soon as your mom called, he sent me with the jet.” “He didn’t have to.” I just shook my head and buckled my seatbelt. “Of course he did. He never gets to see you enough, and now you’re sending in the summer.

    “I lived another life, and I died.” I stumbled over my words and I felt my father freeze. A quick look to Ronnie had him locking the door and waving his hands. I felt the air still, but I was focused on my father’s eyes. “This morning I woke up six years in the past after living until I was twenty-four, and growing my own pup only to have my mate to rip him from my body.” My father’s and Ronnie’s snarl shook the walls, but I raised my hands. “He betrays me for my step sister who convinced him that I cheated and the pup wasn’t his, so he killed us both using silver scalpels, and killing any love I had for him at the same time.” I looked up at my father and the tears rolled down my face. “Pup.” His voice was choked up, but I raised my hand. “I don’t want him to be my mate, daddy. I know I won’t survive it. I need to change it. Everything, and it starts with hiding my scent. I told mom what I needed, and she called you. How are you going to help me?” I was starting to panic. “I don’t

    I walked to my room and screamed when I was tackled to the ground. I started laughing as Cassie got off me. “Why the heck didn’t you tell me you were coming?” She punched my shoulder as I stood. “I didn’t know until this morning.” I hugged her to my side. “I missed you.”“I missed you too.” She pulled back and tossed me a small box. “Happy birthday.”I laughed again. “With everything that has happened, I had pretty much forgotten that it’s my birthday today.” “The big eighteen. Have you shifted yet?” Cassie jumped up and down with excitement. I just shook my head. “I don’t shift. You know that.” My face fell. I heard chuffing inside of my head. “I think you are just blocking it. You have a wolf. We all feel her.” She bumped her hip into mine. “I can feel she wants out.” My wolf chuffed in agreement.Cassie is smarter than you. My wolf’s voice ricochetted in my mind and I just smiled. There are things I cannot tell you, even now, but eventually, if we are lucky, you will find out y

    When we got to the mall, we walked into the clothing store. “I need a new dress.” Cassie pulled me to the back and started to go through the racks. “Why do you need one of these dresses?” I pulled a dress off the rack and held it to my body. The form fitting dress flared out at the bottom. It was a beautiful mermaid formal dress, but white wasn’t my color. “Your homecoming ball.” Cassie grabbed a short pink number that would look horrible with her skin tone. “Put that down and what do you mean homecoming ball?” Cassie froze and then slow turned back to me.“Don’t tell your dad I told you.” She rushed back to me and grabbed my hands. “Frick, I knew I was going to mess this up. You are my best friend and I knew I would mess this up.”“Calm down.” I laughed. “I would never tell my dad you messed up.” I wrapped my hands around her shoulders and shook. “Cassie, calm down and just tell me.”She smiled and nodded. “I was supposed to take you dress shopping for a surprise home coming party

    “So, do we walk to talk about it?” I looked over at Cassie, but she was staring straight ahead. “Cas?”“Can we pretend like it never happened?” Her voice was small when I pulled her over to the side of the mall and leaned in. “Talk to me.”“What do you want me to say?” She threw up her hands. “It’s miserable being this weak. Every she wolf with more power out of the ranking demands we do their work, or their chores, or if we get nice stuff, they take it.” Cas looked at me and I could feel her pain. "We have no alpha female that protects us here. The beta and gamma try, but they have their own duties.” Cas wiped her face. “We have learned to deal with it, and when it really gets bad, then you dad gets involved.”“Cas…”“You aren’t here, and neither is your mom. If you get too involved, then we just suffer when you leave.” She looked at me and then shook herself. “C’mon, let’s go pick out jewelry for your dress. Which one are you going to wear?”“Don't worry about it. You are going to

    “There are my two favourite girls.” My dad walked into my room as we just got back.“Hi Daddy.” I walk over and hugged him and bowed her head. “Hi Alpha Devlin.”“None of that Cassie, when it’s just us, I’ve told you just to call me Dev.” Cas blushed and nodded. “Can I speak with my daughter alone for a minute?”“Of course, Alpha.” Cas looked at me with a tiny bit of panic in her eyes as she turned away. I tried to reassure her, but I couldn’t do much. She knew exactly what this conversation was about. I followed my father to his office and sat down with Ronnie and him. “Talk.”“What is going on in this pack, Dad?”“What do you mean?”“Why are unranked she-wolves lording their power over the weaker wolves?” I looked over at Ronnie and he looked away. “You obviously know what I am talking about. The beta and gamma female here are doing what, exactly?”“Hey!” Ronnie looked at me. “That isn’t fair.”“I’m not saying it’s fair.” I looked back at my father. “You are letting your pack crumb

    I walked back to my bedroom with everything just whirling in my brain. The she-wolves were staging a coup. My father was looking the other way to lure back my mother. Now there was a she-wolf that was doing something fishy. Knowing witchcraft is real, maybe there is something is going on with that.I walked back into my room to see Cas in tears. “What happened?” I rushed over to the bed.“Nothing. I just don’t want you to leave.” I wiped her face and laughed.“Why are you already worried about the end of summer when I just got here?” I collapsed next to her on the bed and I listened to her sniffles.“I know, it’s stupid.” But I could scent the slight tinge of fear in the room, and I knew something was said. “Who came here while I was gone?” I watched her tense, but she relaxed.“No one.” She looked away and the fear disappeared. Like she got control of her emotions.“Talk to me. I can’t help unless I know.” I whispered to her as I wrapped my fingers through hers.“You can’t help, any

    The room was full of wolves and my scent glands were going haywire. Gathering so many wolves in one place always did this to me. My nose was sensitive, and I had to take a few deep breaths to calm myself. “You girls ready?” I looked up at my father and nodded. “Can we enter without you guys?” I asked my father.“Why?”I smiled over at Cas, who was on Ronnie’s arm. “I…”“You are planning something with the she-wolves, aren’t you?”“Yup.” I smiled up at him and slipped my arm out of his. “If you hear a large fight, show up. But I swear, dad, if you fawn over another she-wolf in front of me, I will hit you.”My dad laughed at me. “I promise I won’t and if by the smallest chance I do, you have full access to punch me in my face.” He smiled down at me and I stood on my tiptoes and kissed his cheek. “Thanks daddy.”“You’re welcome, my girl.” I pulled my arm from his and held my hand out for Cassie. “Let’s go.”“Are you sure Amy?”“Yes, yes I am.” I smiled down at her and she shook her he

    Wendy’s mouth dropped open as she stared at me. “Are you serious?” I nodded as I met her gaze. I was planning on telling them this tonight, anyway. After graduation and the celebration, but things change obviously.“Why haven’t you told us?” Hanna stood from the table. She seemed hurt, but I had my reasons.I winced at her tone, but I turned and met her glare head on. “To be honest, this was honestly just a working theory until about a month ago.” I looked at Wendy and Hanna. “When you both settled into your new rank, I wanted to see if this was an anomaly and that you weren’t going to revert back to being unranked. I was also thinking that I was reading you too deeply because we are connected. So I talked it out with Toya, and we decided to wait to tell you.” I looked at Toya and she jumped in.Toya nodded. “We discussed it, the possibility of it. Amy asked me if I had noticed anything about you two first. But since we were together every day, I had to take a minute to figure out the

    We all sat in stunned silence for a moment before we all cracked and started laughing. Wendy leaned back and wiped her face as tears fell. “The fuck Amy.”“What?” I giggled. Hanna shook her head. “Today has been the most insane day.”“What do you mean?” I turned to face her, leaning on the table. “We woke up and got ready for graduation, your birthday, and we were so happy.” She smiled. “And then the bullshit with your dad, with the king, the attack, Carly and Carl, and then everything with Toya and Micca…” She sighed. “I’m exhausted.”Micca nodded. “But I also know this will eat at Amy until she figures it out, and we are all about to go home in…” She looked at the clock. “Five hours.” I groaned, but nodded. “She is right. Two of you are leaving, and we don’t honestly know when we will see each other again.” I sighed as I stood and walked to the kitchen for a cloth. I came back to the table and wiped it off. “We need to know if my thought it correct.”Toya nodded. “I know that my

    “I’m sorry.” I pumped power directly into her.She screamed as it burned, but she turned her wide eyes to me. “I trust you.” She screamed through gritted teeth. And I could see it in her eyes. Even though I didn’t warn her, even though I ripped into her, she still trusted me. “Are you fucking insane?” Verity screamed. But then she froze. “There’s no way.”I smiled as I pumped pure power into Toya’s shoulder. “Oh, but there is.” She screamed and tried to run to us, but I pushed even more power into Toya’s gaping shoulder. Blood poured from her. Urbi howled behind us, but I needed to do this. I looked at Toya, and she gritted her teeth against the pain. Her eyes snapped to mine again. “Do it.” She gave one nod, and then I ripped the skin from her shoulder completely off.She screamed again, blood pouring from the wound. Her shoulder was shredded. Urbi ran to Toya, licking the wound to start the healing. But I turned to watch Verity. She was on her knees. “No.” She panted. “This is imp

    “No!” Verity shrieked as I pumped ore power into the mark hidden on Toya’s dark skin. She thought I wouldn’t notice the slight discolouration on her shoulder. But I have spent years sparring with her, years being her friend, shifting with her almost daily. I know her body, and I saw the slight difference as soon as Toya moved her hair. Toya stumbled back and her eyes flashed with confusion. “What the hell?” She turned to look down. “It fucking burns.” She snarled as I sent a fresh wave of magic into her shoulder. “I know, and I’m sorry, but it has to go.” I grabbed her and pulled her closer to me. “Do you trust me?”She stared at me for less than a second. “Of course I do.”I nodded as Verity screamed again. “You can’t fucking do this.” She stumbled towards us as I shifted my hand into claws behind my back. I pulled back my power from Toya’s shoulder, like I was giving up, like her power was too strong to break through. I panted and flashed a look at Toya. She gave a tiny nod as I t

    “You’re lying.” She whispered as she stumbled back a step.“Am I?” I tapped a finger on my lips. “Have you mated? Have you kissed? Has he ever touched you other than what was necessary? Or has he been politely affectionate? Holding your hand, patting your head, and keeping a distinct distance between the two of you.” I was playing with her head. Contorting the facts to suit my narrative better, but it was doing what I wanted it to. It was making her weaker. Toya snorted. “I bet he hasn’t even done that. He has probably told her they need to keep space until they have bonded to keep her honour intact.” She smiled, and it was vicious. “I bet you that at the graduation it was the first time Rowan allowed her to even touch him.”She shook her head. “You’re lying.” But her voice betrayed her.“You think he is the puppet, but in fact, you are.” I laughed, bending at my waist. “You’re lying.” She shrieked again. “You are trying to turn me against him.”I wiped my tears as I stood back up.

    She glared at me but I held back. “Cat’s got your tongue?” I crossed my arms, but my mind was spinning. Verity was obviously related to Aurora. She was probably a cousin or something. She obviously had magic like them. The entire family had set their sights high for their mates. Aurora wanted my father. Amara nailed Beck, which I wasn’t sure if they were goddess blessed mates now that I think of it. And now Verity, setting her sights and claws into Rowan. “I have to hand it to you. Out of the twins and you, you aimed higher.”“I deserved more than my sisters.” She snarled and then seemed to catch herself. I felt my eyes narrow. “Sisters? Interesting. But you had different last names. Probably different sires.” I tossed my head back and forth. “I can only assume since your grandmother helped them you came first, and you were the mistake.”She snarled, charging at us. “I was not a mistake.” She screamed. “They were weaker than me in every way.” She spun and started to pace. “No one eve

    “No!” She screamed as she tried to turn away, but I held her securely in my hands as her disguise dropped again. I watched as her blonde hair turned a soft golden brown, somewhere between the dark of Amara and the light of Aurora. Her brown eyes settled again, starkly different from the bright blue of the twins. But her face, her face was similar, and I wanted to smack myself from not realizing it sooner. “Well now. Fancy seeing you again so soon.” I looked at Toya over my shoulder. She stepped closer, a snarl on her lips. “You did this?” Toya was furious. The woman laughed on her knees, but she wrenched away from me. “Yes. And why not?” She snarled as she turned on me. “Amy fucking deserves everything to be ripped from her. Her father is dead.” She laughed. “Soon her mother will become a brood mare for someone she hates.” I snarled this time, and she chuckled. “So I took a shot to turn her friends on her. And it would have worked. If it wasn’t for the fact, you are all too close.”

    Amara stared back at me with wide eyes. “This is impossible.” She backpedaled, trying to create space between us. Her dark hair flying back as she stumbled, but I followed her. “No…but do you want to know what is possible?” I finally released her throat, but grabbed her hand before she could pull away. “You being here.” She furrowed her brow. “What?”“I let it slide the last time I saw you because I was confused and more focused on getting the spell attacking me broken, but this time, this time, I’m going to figure this out.” I pulled her closer to me. “What are you talking about?”“You, Amara, you are dead.” I watched her eyes widened. Then there was a soft ripple that ran over her face. It was subtle. And if I hadn’t known the real Amara, or if I was farther away, I would have missed it. “No, I’m not.” She laughed, deflecting my words. “You are. My father executed you, your mate and your witch grandmother himself.” I got into her face.“You’re lying.” Her face paled, and she tr

    I watched her face away, back into the trees, before I turned and faced the glass. I pressed my hands against it, and instead of a solid wall I thought I was going to find, I felt in push in almost as if it was a bubble. I forced myself deeper, pushing farther in, causing the bubble to cave in. Every step I took in the harder the bubble pushed back against me. It was fighting back, refusing to let me enter, and that just made me question what the hell was going on. This made no sense. Toya’s defenses were blocking my entry, but that made zero sense. I wasn’t here to hurt her, and even though something was attacking her, her mind should know I was safe to allow in. That Urbi was safe to allow in. I pulled back, gathering my strength and my magic to me, and then I slammed against the bubble. It fought back, pushing be back, but I used my magic like a knife, slicing through the force field and finally stumbling out of the trees. I turned back and I could see the edge of the invisible b
