TANGLED TAILS AND HEARTS 108
In a very dark eerie room that had little to no ray of sunshine, Alpha Saxton sat on the chair in front of his desk, working on something on his laptop when there was a knock on the door.He gave a hum and the door opened, Rees entered the room and sighed when he was standing in front of him.“Are you supposed to be chilling now?”“I definitely know that I am not supposed to be brooding.”“Maverick already knows the Alphas that joined hands against them,” Rees informed and Saxton nodded.“I know that it was only about time before he found out about them and fished them out, that's not necessarily a bad thing.”“You said so now but I don't think that those Alpha thinks that,”“Not my problem.”“Do you want to see them all?”“Why should I? They are not my problem at the moment. They should pay the price for being stupid,”“Understood.”“Did Maverick see to the matter himself?” He asked as he continued typing on his laptop.“No, Aurora was the one they met,”“No wonder they thought they

“So from what you said, you loved our other dates more,” he said and she snorted once again.“You mean the abnormal dates?” She asked and he glared at her which made her chuckle. “But yes, I do.”“I figured as much. You only complain unendingly about things that you love. So except for the world’s example of picture perfect date.” He said and she raised a brow at him in surprise.“Don’t tell me…”“Yeah. I have another date planned. A date that would fit that setting.”“Wow… you are really something Maverick.” Aurora said with a small laugh and he raised his hand with which she intertwined hers with.“So are we going outside this place?”“No, we aren’t.” He said and started leading her to the eastside of the yard. She had removed her heels and had forced him to get rid of his shoes too, so they could feel the sand seeping through the gap of their feet and it was a very soothing feeling.As they got closer, Aurora’s eyes widened in surprise, it kept getting wider as they advanced closer

The taste of alcohol was potent on their lips but Aurora loved it even more, it made the kiss even more intoxicating. Maverick's hand slipped around her waist and she wound up her finger in his hair, clutching it in her hand in a dead grip as they explored each other's mouth.Maverick pulled Aurora closer to himself and Aurora pushed herself harder, it seemed as though she couldn't get closer enough to him. There was nothing she wanted more than that and she would continue invading his space till she was satisfied, but at the moment she couldn't feel any satisfaction.She wanted to be closer to him.Lips sucking, tongues rolling and body meshing against each other, Aurora wanted to remain in that position forever. But unfortunately, she needed to breathe, she had forgotten how to do it with his lips on her. So she disconnected their lips.But she still didn't get to breathe perfectly because Maverick attached his lips to her neck, sucking down on the collar bone in a slow tantalizing

“We had sex again and I don't know how it happened,” Aurora said, clutching the blanket around her trembling frame, it was her only thing keeping her from being naked as she felt. The words tasted bitter, like a heavy lid on her tongue, but she forced them out.Lightning flashed outside, illuminating her in the dim room. Her hair clung to her damp face, a wild mess, and her feet, bare against the cold floor, felt numb.“Wait... what?!” Easton’s voice cut through the silence, his wide eyes flicking to the thin nightgown peeking from beneath the blanket. His expression darkened.“That’s—”“Phoebe’s,” Aurora finished flatly. Her lips twisted into a bitter smile. “Of course it is.”Easton clenched his fists. “That bastard—”“Don’t.” Aurora cut him off, shaking her head. Her gaze dropped to the floor as she tried to blink back her tears. “I don’t need you defending me. Not from him. Not now.”Her voice cracked, but she swallowed the lump in her throat and kept speaking. “He threw it at me.

Aurora flinched at the shrill voice behind her.“Move out of my way, bitch!” Tessie barked, her black eyes blazing with disdain. Her sneer curled into something colder as she added, “And keep your cursed bad luck out of my path.”Aurora turned slowly, her calm gaze meeting Tessie’s glare. Before she could respond, another voice chimed in.“Mom’s going to kill you for letting her stand so close, Tess,” Jennie sneered. “The pack’s still celebrating that a half-witch like her didn't end up being the Luna, thanks to Alpha's quick choice of our perfect sister.”“Shut it, Jennie!” Tessie snapped and turned back to Aurora. “Well? Are you deaf now? Get out of the way!”The tension around them thickened as curious eyes from the field began to drift their way. Aurora felt their glares, their whispers, the same hostility she’d endured her entire life.It was nothing new.Her voice was unnervingly calm as she replied. “There’s no need to yell. Being a werewolf doesn’t mean you have to act like an

Remind me why we are still not out of this place," Easton said."Luna might be needed anytime. I have to be present," Aurora stated nonchalantly. Easton glared at her and immediately knew she wasn’t as okay as she pretended to be. Even after the spectacle on the field, she had taken a moment to herself but still insisted they return to the halls because of her duties.Duties for a position Maverick had just given to Phoebe in front of nearly everyone in the pack."That asshole," Easton muttered as they stood at the far end of the hall. There was no one around, and the dim light shrouded them in shadows. Hidden from plain view, they leaned against each other."He’s been like this ever since the mate awakening ceremony," Easton said, glaring at Maverick, who stood on stage giving a speech. A smile rested on Maverick’s lips as if he hadn’t just shattered someone’s world with his words and actions. "The petty bastard even used you not showing up as an excuse to reject you."Aurora’s mind d

Aurora staggered for a bit before she managed to stand on her feet perfectly. Everyone present was shocked that she could even stand.“I’ve endured too much in this pack to stay another second. Hypocritical leaders, selfish members, and you—my mate—who failed me most. Keep your lies, your cruelty, and your title. I’m done.” Her eyes are cold and unfeeling. “All of you can dive headfirst into hell. I’m leaving this shithole of yours, and you can keep it for the rest of your life!” she spat angrily, despite the immense pain she felt. Turning on her heel, she began to walk away. Easton immediately followed her.Maverick also left the scene, his expression pained as he watched Aurora walk away. He seemed to have difficulty breathing; his eyes were bloodshot, and his hands were trembling. But no one noticed him leave.The pack councils and members attempted to follow her, but Alec shook his head at them, and they reluctantly stood down, watching as Aurora left the field—out of Moonlight Pac

How many people did it take for an unwarranted headache to sizzle up in one’s head and prick at one’s nerves?That had been the question the women Aurora was out in the woods with had asked each other just moments before. They’d all had different answers, and the numbers varied widely, but one thing united them despite their differences:For Aurora, there was no number. No matter how many people it took, no matter how irritating or intimidating they were, no one could shake the rock that was Aurora. She had agreed with a smile on her lips.How wrong they had been.Aurora had never thought she would see him again. They might cross paths someday, but it wasn’t supposed to be now. And even if they did meet, she wasn’t supposed to feel anything.But as she looked at his face, she froze. A lump rose in her throat, a barricade of conflicting emotions she hadn’t felt in the last five years crashing over her—emotions she had thought locked away. They bubbled to the surface as his hypnotizing b

Maverick and Aurora stood to the side after descending from the podium and watched everything with hawk eyes.Aurora, who was continuously greeted since her speech, had her hand crossed over her chest, calculating, in her head, the right time to go into the woods and set the plans in motion. “Aurora,” Layla said, approaching them with a glass of champagne in hand and a smile on her face. “You look so beautiful tonight.”Her eyes raked over her sleek, fitted, black mini gown. The velvet material that hung to her body was backless and shimmering, the hemline fell just above her knees, a pair of strappy stilettos on her feet and her face that had moderate makeup that accentuated her features before she gave a nod of approval.“Thanks Layla, but I think that you look more gorgeous,” Aurora replied, waving her away which caused her glittering bangle wraps to jingle.Layla was wearing a knee-length silver sequin gown that caught the light and clung to her body, pronouncing all her curves a

The mate awakening ceremony was an outdoor party in Moonlight Pack and it was usually held in the vast field in front of the pack’s hall because of the large number of werewolves that usually attends that occasion.It was the opportunity for mate less wolves from all across the globe to connect and find their soulmate. Those who get their mates among their pack members are extremely lucky and those who know them as soon as they turn eighteen were extremely rare.The decorations were fantastic and chic, the gold lights also gave the whole place an ethereal glow. The moon --bright and beautiful--was up in the sky and a cool breeze brushed across their werewolves’ skins.It was a night of a lot of things. Love, hatred, disgust, pride, money, authority were usually flaunted at this occasion.Some werewolves were happy, with bright shiny eyes at the prospect of finding their mate tonight while some had nervous smiles on their lips and kept checking their appearance every other minute. Some

“I don’t know that I have unknowingly got you a place near my pack where you could relax and come back to anytime,” Ferix heard Aurora’s voice behind her and he turned to raise a brow at her with a small smile, Aurora walked closer to him and sit down beside him and they both stared at the body of water that was in front of them.“It is peaceful and got this therapeutic feeling to it,”“I have to agree with that,” Aurora shrugged.“It has been a while,” Ferix said and Aurora nodded.Since the night that Ferix had confessed his feelings to her, both of them hardly ever saw each other since both Maverick and Aurora had been caught up with inviting their allies for the mate awakening ceremony, they both also had to make sure that the decorations and the event go smoothly, part of the reason was also the fact that he had been actively avoiding her too.He did not know if any of them noticed but while Aurora was helping with the preparation because she was the leader of rogue pack, orderin

Ferix had run into the man he had come to this side of the city for, and the man had delayed him with talks that Ferix had paid absolutely no attention to. He just wanted to get away.Telling Aurora how he felt hadn’t been a good idea, and he was aware of that, but he couldn’t help it.At that moment, with her eyes lightened up and the laugh he knew he had caused, he had just blurted it out. Nothing good was going to come from it, because even though they were not particularly lovers, it didn’t excuse the fact that they were still mates.“The look on your face tells me that you’ve done something stupid,” he heard and raised his head to see Carly standing off to the side, almost blending with the shadows.“I haven’t done anything stupid!” he snapped at her, and she scoffed.“You’ve definitely done something stupid, so tell me what it was that you did.”“I didn’t do anything. So what the fuck are you doing here?” Ferix asked, walking to where he had parked his car, and Carly tailed afte

“Then I would contact you later,” Maverick said into the phone before he disconnected the call.“Maverick?!” Someone called his name with a loud shrill, and he was forced to turn in the direction of the person who was screaming so loudly in the hospital.“OMG! It’s really you!” she exclaimed as she moved toward him. Maverick was surprised to see the receptionist from the hotel at Eastwood Pack in his pack, but he hid his surprise quite well.“Hi, Carly,” Maverick said, and her eyes brightened when she discovered that the man recognized her.“It’s so nice to see you again!” she exclaimed, and Maverick was almost forced to tell her to calm down, but he held it down.“What are you doing here?” he asked.“I’m here to visit my cousin and have been here for quite some time, but I didn’t have any hope of seeing you since you’re the Alpha and all, but here you are! In the fucking plain sight!” she continued in her shrill voice, already wrapping her arms around Maverick’s and pushing herself c

“I can take care of it here,” Aurora said, but Maverick didn’t pay any attention to her as he continued walking towards the car, her hand in his as he dragged her along.“Seriously, it’s nothing huge, just a bit of cotton, bandages, and a couple of pain relief pills would help,” Aurora insisted, but he just opened the car and sat her down.“You have to recognize the fact that I’m a werewolf too, I have healing abilities too!” she exclaimed.“Healing abilities that are very slow, you forget that part,” Maverick finally replied as he sat behind the wheel. “Just look at yourself in the mirror. Only heaven knows how many bones you’ve broken, your face is all bruised up, and I’m sure your arm is aching from the amount of shooting you’ve done today.”“It’s not as bad as it looks,”“I believe the decision is up to me,” he said. “Now, you’ll sit still like a good girl and let me drive you to the hospital so that Sadie can check you up. I don’t want to hear what you think.”Aurora glared at hi
