TANGLED TAILS AND HEARTS 47
“What the hell is that idiot saying?” Layla asked, staring at the receding figures of the men, wondering where Anabella had dragged Hilton to, gods knew where.“Phoebe is back,” Aurora said, and Easton nodded, making Layla’s eyes widen to saucers.“What the fuck?!” Layla yelled, and Aurora just sighed. “Who informed you?”“Zach,” Aurora, Easton, and Kael all said at the same time.“What the fuck? He told you guys but not me? What the hell? What if I wasn’t with you guys and had no way to contact anyone to tell me?” she yelled.“Then that would have been your problem,” Easton muttered with a shrug.“The hell is that you blocked the mind link between the both of you, so there is no way for him to contact you even if he wanted to, bitch,” Kael stated with an eye roll.“How on earth does your relationship even work? If I am your mate, I would have rejected your sorry ass,” Easton groused, and Layla scoffed.“I feel so sorry for your mates, they have to tolerate all your shit for the rest o

“I totally didn't see that coming!” Layla exclaimed with wide eyes. “Now it made sense! Tessie and Jennie wouldn't give him a pass simply because he was their friend. Those bitches were sluts! They didn’t go near him because he was their stepbrother, and they would have been committing incest if they did!”“Even though I was surprised it wasn’t on their to-do list,” Sadie said.“Yeah, I must say I didn’t expect that either. The Brian family really did well to keep it all under wraps. Throughout my entire time here, I never heard of him having a son,” Aurora nodded.They were walking to the pack hospital. Layla and Sadie had met her on their way back from the pack house, and Layla had wasted no time giving her the gist of the event.“I must say, you didn’t look shocked, Sadie,” Aurora noted, and Sadie smiled.“I had always known that Mr. Brian had a kid outside of wedlock with a werewolf from another pack. They weren’t mates, just a one-night stand that led to pregnancy. The woman refus

“Take this, Aurora,” Sadie said, dropping a few files into Aurora's hand. “That's everything you asked me for. Honestly, most of your members are doing a pretty good job too. I didn’t have any problems with them—they followed my instructions to the letter, except for a mischievous few. But all is good, and these are the overall reports. I asked them about it, and they said it was okay for me to give them to you. Some were even annoyed that I bothered to ask them instead of just dumping it all in your hands so you could deal with the stress.”“Yeah, I remember one of the oldies telling you about it,” Layla said with a laugh.There was a knock at the door, and Sadie invited whoever it was in.Hilda stepped inside the office, smiling at everyone except Aurora. Aurora was sure the woman was doing it on purpose. Normally, she wouldn’t care about things like this, but there was an indignant, disdainful way Hilda went about it that hit Aurora in all the sour spots.“I was told to pass this me

Layla had been missing for three days. She had sent enough signals to let them know she was still alive, but had completely blocked herself off from them.She wasn't a wolf who could be easily scented out; she even blocked her mate. Aurora was certain that Layla placed a scent cloaking and anti-tracking spell on herself.Zach was going crazy. The man had dark circles under his eyes and constantly looked as though life had been drained from him. Aurora didn’t blame him. It was crystal clear that Zach was the last person Layla wanted to see.“Have you heard anything from her?” Zach asked, and Aurora shook her head.“Except for the occasional signal that she sends to let us know she’s alive, nothing else.”“Can't you follow that signal or something?” He ran his hand through his messy, undone hair. Normally, it was styled in a pompadour, but he didn’t seem to care about it now. He just wanted to find his mate.“A powerful witch could do that, but not me. First, because I’m close to Layla,

“They want us to come to their pack for a week or two. They want you there. Alpha Vincent claimed that it would assure him to see your face and judge your book by its cover since that was his only way,” Maverick said, and Aurora raised her head, looking straight into his blue eyes.It had been over two weeks since they had really sat together. They hadn’t been avoiding each other, but since the pack councils hadn't made much of a fuss after they both shut them down on the day Mr. Prill and Sally arrived at the pack, they had hardly seen each other anymore.Both of them had been dealing with the issues of their own people privately until something had brought them both to the table.Like the Eastwood Pack issue.“How did their investment in Moonlight Pack have anything to do with us? Did those bunch of asses think that we’d go vandalizing all their buildings or something?” Easton had asked with an eye roll, already annoyed to bring up something Aurora knew nothing about.“The fact that

“So? To what the hell did I owe you this visit, Ms. Brian?” Aurora asked, staring at Phoebe, who stood with her hips cocked to the side, arrogance emanating off her in waves. But it was of no use at the moment, because Aurora definitely looked more smug and authoritative.Aurora wore a black leather jacket adorned with studs, left open to reveal a white tank top with the bold words "Bitch Please" scrawled in red. Her ripped denim jeans were cinched by a chunky belt, and her black knee-high boots clicked against the wooden planks as she shifted her weight. Her messy, shoulder-length hair framed her face in a tousled, effortless style.Phoebe, in contrast, had chosen a sleek white tube top paired with a black pleated mini skirt and ankle-strap heels. Her bold eyeliner and red lipstick accentuated her striking features, while her long hair flowed freely down her back. she found herself feeling overshadowed by Aurora’s commanding presence.Honestly, comparing them, Phoebe looked like a slu

“It would have been better if she had stayed back home under the protective wings of her parents,” Sadie shrugged as they headed to the Moonlight Pack House.“How do you know about it?” Aurora asked, certain that Phoebe wasn’t the kind of person who would let such a huge secret, especially one that happened to be her weakness, out in the open.“You know Ellie?” Sadie asked, and Aurora nodded. Everyone knew the best gossip woman in the Moonlight Pack.“Her daughter happens to be friends with the best friend of the mate of the Beta of the Sinister Smile Pack.”“Sinister Smile Pack? Are they some kind of idiots trying to be villains? That sounds like some idiot named it,” Aurora remarked.“You named yours Lala Land. Are you some kind of fairy godmother trying to bring balance to the kids of the world? That sounds like the name of an amusement park,” Sadie retorted.“Touché.”“Sinister Pack is the twin pack of the Blood Moon Pack, though, and it’s ruled by the same Alpha.”“Why didn’t they

“Layla is one sneaky bitch. I must commend your friend for that,” Stephanie said with a nod. Aurora stared at her with a raised brow.“Does that mean you can’t bring her back?” Sadie chimed in, and Stephanie chuckled.“There are many things I’m not great at, but trust me, darling, finding someone isn’t one of them. That’s my area of expertise,” Stephanie clarified. She snapped her fingers, and Layla appeared in the room, seemingly out of nowhere, mid-motion. She was raising a spoonful of spaghetti to her mouth, a plate in her other hand.At first, Layla didn’t notice her change of surroundings and continued eating. However, she paused when the room’s décor registered as different. She raised her head at the sound of laughter.“OMG! Don’t tell me you were busy enjoying life while we’re here struggling?” Sadie asked between fits of laughter. Layla looked around and glared at everyone, her gaze lingering briefly on Stephanie before shifting away in anger.“What the hell is all this about?

“I have to admit that I love it more with your mark on you,” Layla said. “You look more radiant.”They had the pack’s general kitchen to themselves and were preparing a lot of cookies and cakes, because according to Layla, the true alliance between Moonlight Pack and Night Pack deserved to be celebrated.Stephanie also believed that it would be for the best if they switched the name of the pack to Moonlight Night Pack.“You aren’t actually going to stop this, are you?” Aurora groaned and Layla shook her head.“We were there when you cursed him out, we were there when you admitted your fault and praised him. It is only normal that we are there when you act all gooey.” Stephanie said, wriggling her brows in an over exaggerated manner.Aurora face palmed. “Can’t we just get past this?”“No. We can’t. Your mark is just so beautiful, I wish that I can get something like th—” Sadie started to talk but she stopped when she remembered Ferix and what he had told her some days ago.Somehow, she

“He marked you,” Alec said simply, glancing at the mark on Aurora’s shoulder and she nodded, staring straight into the eyes of her mate’s best friend. She has decided to talk to him so that they can put their differences aside and get along in the near future. She has the brain to figure that both of them are part of Maverick’s life and would always be.He was not going to choose one of them over the other and Aurora didn't want her to do that at all, she would love it even more if Maverick continued to have someone like Alec by his side.“Yes, he did.” Aurora leaned on the rail and turned to look straight into his eyes. They were standing at the balcony that was at Moonlight Pack’s pack house, at Maverick’s place.“You don’t seem to want to argue with me today,”“And you don’t seem to want to discard my head from my body,”“You are leaving Maverick again,” It was supposed to be a question but Alec managed to make it look like it was a statement—like it was a fact.“Over my dead body,

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

“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

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

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
