Jace's POV I looked at Glen in disbelief as he approached us. I had heard and believed Paul's words. What I didn't really expect was to see him worse than what he had said. "Brother," Glen called, and then grabbed my hand, making me uncomfortable.Harvey was about to move when I raised my free hand to stop him."What is it, Glen?" I asked seriously."I really do need your help, please. When you do me this favor, I will forever be in your debt. If you want, you can have half of my company shares. No, you can pick out any new clinic equipment you want, and I'll personally deliver it to you. Just name your price, and I promise to fulfill it," he said in a cracked voice."All this for a woman you treated like trash?" I asked, and then flinched when a punch landed on my face.Before Ridge could take over, a punch landed on Glen's face, sending him flying to his men.Harvey stood in front of me in a protective stance, breathing heavily. Glen's men were about to move when Glen shook his h
Dominic's POV I felt so refreshed, relaxed, and much calmer than I was before after taking a bath."How do you feel?" Jace asked once I was seated in the living room on a couch that was opposite his."Hungry and very concerned about the news I received," I answered honestly.Did I doubt the ancient witch's words? No, I didn't. Did her words shock me and make no sense at one point? Absolutely.Like, who could believe that there was someone who looked identical to us? Unless he was a twin or a fan who was obsessed with us to the point of seeing a surgeon to look like us. But thinking through everything, it all seemed impossible. Perhaps he looked a little like us, but not exactly."You doubt her words, don't you?" he asked calmly."No, I don't; I just find them hard to accept, not to believe," I answered simply.He smiled and then looked at the door as if to make sure there was no one close by or listening to our conversation."I hate Glen, and I don't like you much," he said seriously
Sky's POV I was very concerned as I moved back and forth outside Harley's bedroom.After explaining what mates meant, she silently stood up and went to her bedroom, locking it. At first, I knocked like crazy, apologizing if I had offended her in any way. When minutes went by without her response, I considered checking in just in case she wanted to eat or talk to someone. One was to stand guard while the other rested; if the one on guard got tired, the one resting would come and take over.And so, I went back to my office to look at my files until it was past midnight. When I checked on her, the Omega confirmed that she was still inside her room. I decided to rest, so I went back to my room and slept. When I woke up, I took a bath, and here I was at her door, debating whether to knock or not."Alpha, the whole night I could hear soft sobs coming from her bedroom. I wanted to walk in, but I didn't know if that would be a bother to her or not," the female Omega who was assigned to stay
Sky's POV When was the last time I felt this aroused? Never; this was the first time I was masturbating to a woman I badly wanted and truly desired."Gosh, I want her so bad," I whispered in a husky voice while I stroked my length, which was coated in precum, rubbing the head a few times and groaning in pleasure.I quickened my pace as I imagined her naked, panting beneath me with parted lips. Her eyes would be perhaps a little hazy, and her hair messy, her hands on my back and her legs wrapped around me, pushing me forward as her pussy tightened around my length, taking all of me in."Fuck, Harley!" I called out loudly as I climaxed, releasing and relieving myself.I looked at my dirty hand while panting, then heavily sighed.Being a virgin really did suck a lot because all I had was my damn imagination.I walked to the bathroom and got into the shower, turning it on after taking off my shirt, which was already unbuttoned.When cold water poured on me, I closed my eyes, wondering ho
Harley's POVI was stunned and speechless, unable to say a word.How could he easily introduce me as his woman?"We don't hate it," Jade whispered.She was so pleased with how he was treating us."Your woman? If she really is, then what am I to you? Aren't I your woman as well, Alpha?" she asked seriously, and I felt an urge to grab her by the throat and rip it apart. I had to take a deep breath to calm myself down."I hate such childish games; you know that. What if my mate misunderstands your terrible jokes and hates me for it?" he asked seriously, and I found myself smiling at him for saying that.Vanessa, on the other hand, looked so shocked."Um... being introduced as your best friend's sister is too much, don't you think?" she asked."What exactly did you want me to introduce you as if not that? Did you want me to say that you are my young sister? Or perhaps our pack healer?" he asked simply as her facial expression changed.It was obvious she was not happy. She was hurt by his
Jace's POV "Please stop moving," Edith said softly.She had her hands raised in mid-air and seemed too focused. Sweat was forming on her forehead, and her breath was a little labored. Dominic was still in control and standing behind her. I stood a little further away from him with Harvey, Lillian, Paul, and Light.After spending one more day with Dominic, I got to see how different he was from Glen. He was more forward, honest, and didn't show pride. He and I would have been good friends if not for Glen. Unfortunately, Glen was a part of him. Perhaps if Glen changed his ways and character, then it would work out.I was snapped out of my thoughts when a portal opened in front of Edith.We couldn't see a thing at the other end besides beautiful, colorful waves that were swirling around."Alpha, we are here," Sophie said seriously as she approached us.We were all expecting her; that's why we were at ease even when she had crossed the pack's border.She bowed low to Lillian and me, the
Sky's POV"You know, it's late to ask this of you, but is it okay if you meet my pack members?" I asked Harley seriously in the living room."Is it okay?" she asked back.I raised a brow and then smiled at her."Of course it is. You are my mate and their Luna. They are looking forward to meeting you and getting to know you better," I answered softly and then held her hands in mine."To be honest, I am very nervous and a little scared," she whispered and then moved back on the couch and tried to pull her hands away.I grabbed them tightly and then frowned."I understand, and you don't have to be. You have me by your side, Harley. Have you forgotten?" I asked softly and then let her hands go.She kept quiet for a few seconds, then opened her mouth to say something when I felt it.Intruders in my pack! I quickly moved my finger to her lips and shook my head."Some beings or things that aren't a part of my pack have entered my pack. I need you to stay here, and no matter what happens, do
Molly's POVI was kneeling on the ground with tears running down my cheeks. I was so scared, and I felt very confused over the fight that was happening around me. There was blood everywhere, and the lady in front of me, who was doing her best to hold the barrier around us, looked so tired.Why did they bring me to such a dangerous place in the first place? Was Harley even here?Wait, Harley!I got to my feet, closed my eyes, and took a deep breath to calm myself down. Once I felt better, I opened them."Harley! Where are you? Harley, I am so scared right now!" I screamed at the top of my voice as the lady looked at me in surprise.I knew it was useless for her to hear my voice because the growls and snarls around me were very loud. But it was still worth a try."Harley, please! It's me, Molly!" I screamed, then sighed in relief when I saw her come out of the huge mansion, running.She looked around with a shocked expression on her face, then raised her hands."Stop!" she screamed in a
Sky's POV"Alpha Ian and his family have arrived," Riff announced through the pack's mind-link."Okay," I answered from my office, still using the mind-link, and then slowly stood up.When I felt their presence at the pack's border, I quickly sent Riff to welcome them and show them to the pack. Then, I went on to inform Glen about their arrival.I also felt that Jace needed to know they were here, which is why I rushed to my office to make a call."Alpha, they are in the living room," Riff mind-linked me."I'm coming," I answered and then quickly walked out.When I entered the living room, I found everyone seated except for Alpha Ian and Glen, who were both looking at Sonya."Alpha Ian, welcome," I said nervously.He looked at me with a raised brow, then at Glen."He looks exactly like you; it sucks," he muttered."That's because he is my identical twin brother," Glen answered simply."Gosh, I couldn't want even my worst enemy to share his exact face with another, be it blood or not,"
Glen's POV I looked at Sky, who was typing something on his laptop in the pack's office, then folded my arms with a low sigh."What is it?" he asked without looking at me."Don't you think you are rushing things? Just because the Queen of Dragons said that to you, it doesn't make you obliged to go through with it. Harley and I can wait until the right time to have the ceremony, brother," I answered seriously."That's the thing: no one can force me to do what I feel or think is wrong. What Harley's mother said was right, and I want to do it while she's still in our pack," he said calmly and then looked at me."Our mate acted cold towards her mother, but we all could see it in her words how she still longed for her. Her being made Luna with part of her family witnessing it would make her and us happy, wouldn't it?" he asked as I dropped my hands and nodded.When she asked her mother if she was leaving, her voice indeed held longing, and it surprised me. But at the same time, I understo
Sonya's POV"Come on, just this once," I pleaded softly.Harley looked at me coldly and then sighed heavily."Can't you call me 'mother' just this once, please?" I said loudly and then looked at her mates, who were both staring at me in silence.I could tell what they were thinking without them saying a word.The first thing I saw in their expressions was the question: how dare you invite yourself into our pack house and living room? The second question was: how could you ask that of her when you clearly abandoned her?And the last question was: how the hell are you able to keep such a funny demeanor when things are far worse and serious? How could you leave your warriors outside the pack house and freely joke with our mate?"I know you want to say something to me; please do, because I promise I won't be upset," I said seriously to them.The twins looked at each other and then looked back at me."Ma'am, are you going to take Harley away from us?" one Alpha asked."Before I answer, may
Sky's POV "You have to eat something," I whispered in concern as I rubbed Harley's back gently.She was lying down on her bed in silence while I sat next to her. Glen stood next to us with a sad expression on his face. Ever since Corinne left our pack, two days had gone by, but Harley refused to eat or talk much to any of us.I was very concerned that I had to put the pack's work on hold."Perhaps we should call Berta—I mean Mom and Dad—and inform them about everything," Glen insisted seriously.I quickly got up and cursed loudly."What now?" he asked at the top of his voice."We have an intruder," I answered coldly."Riff, we have an intruder," I said loudly as I walked out of the pack house.I sighed heavily when I looked at Corinne, who was standing with her hand pressed on her hip."You again," I said softly, then glanced at Riff and Sophie, who were rushing towards me."Tell the warriors to stand by," I mind-linked Riff and then focused on Corinne."Did you seriously think I wa
Corinne's POV "Why aren't you asking me more questions?" I asked Harley seriously.A few minutes had gone by, and she was looking at me with hate and anger."Let's go inside," she said coldly, then turned and went into a huge mansion I assumed was the pack house."You heard her," I whispered, then followed her inside.I paid no mind to the wall interior because my eyes were fixed on how she walked. Even her movements were exactly like my sister's. If my sister were any younger, she could have passed as her identical twin.I made a turn and walked into the living room, where she pointed at a sofa."Thanks," I said simply, then took a seat.We both glanced at the door when the two Alphas and Betas walked in."Now that everyone is here, I won't hold back on what I'm about to say and ask," Harley announced seriously."Of course," I whispered.Ever since we received the call about Harley being alive and possibly well, my sister wasted no time in sending me to meet her. Before I traveled,
Harley's POV I knew my mates were acting differently but I ignored them. At least I tried to because I thought they were doing that to spite me due to how I had kept my feelings to myself.It was wrong of me but I felt like they were doing a little revenge of their own, which I choose to really not pay much attention to until from nowhere Sophie and Glen barged into my room.It was very startling but they gave a few excuses of how they had thought they had heard a sudden noise from my room.At first I didn't think much about the situation and told them they just had been mistaken. But some minutes went by with them talking a lot, as if they were trying to keep me in the dark over something.That's why I asked Sophie if something was going on, but she brushed it off and told me to ignore any noise because the warriors were training in front of the pack house. Her excuse made no sense that's why I turned to Glen and asked him if he was keeping something from me.He hesitated but gave i
Sky's POV "Do you think we are acting weird?" I asked Riff, who stood in my office with his arms crossed."Is that why you rushed me to your office?" he asked lazily."Are you still upset with me?" I asked back seriously from behind my desk.He shook his head and then dropped his hands."I came running because of the tone of your voice. I thought something bad had happened to you. I was so worried about you, not upset," he answered simply."Well, Harley has been looking at me and Glen coldly these past few days. We... I mean Glen and I decided to keep the news of her parents coming to our pack a secret, just in case they come looking for blood or end up not being her real parents," I said seriously."Well, what do you expect me to say, Alpha? She is a sharp lady who can easily tell if something is going on. Perhaps you should come clean and tell her the truth. After all, you look uncomfortable not telling her, so it might do you good to come clean," he advised.I stood up and brushed
Glen's POV"Any luck?" Sky asked seriously in my bedroom."It will take a few more days, brother. I have already contacted a few investors and friends who might know about the information that we need," I answered and then took a seat on my bed."I also contacted Ian. He might be intimidating and cold, but because of Jace, he might help us. I heard he is friends with Alpha Damon, whose pack is known as the library of all information," I said."Yeah, I have also heard about him. You did good," he answered.Yesterday, we did everything in our power to make our mate feel better. We called Molly and asked her to invite everyone because we wanted to chat with them all. The chat went well, and after she disconnected the call, Harley still looked a little sad.I knew I had to get to work immediately, so I started calling people who could help. For hours, I was locked up in my office, where I only had a few hours of rest.Sky was with her most of the time, and that was a relief because it see
Harley's POVI was surprised by the sudden news and departure of Clyde and Berta. But because of how happy they looked, I was okay with it."Now that they are gone, that leaves only two of us women in the pack house," Sophie said with a smile."I have never seen you this happy, manager... oh, I mean Sophie. Sorry, it's out of habit calling you that," I said seriously."It's fine, Luna," she answered as I frowned."You know, I might have been your superior at work in human territory. But here, you are my leader," she said and then took a few steps forward."Forgive me for asking you this, but are you alright?" she asked as I smiled and nodded."You look a bit absent-minded," she said and then grabbed my hands."We started off on the wrong track, but now we are friends, right? So if there is anything that is bothering you, you can confide in me," she said seriously.I kept quiet for a few minutes, then decided to open up to her.How does it feel to have parents?" I asked, and that seeme
