12 YEARS AFTER THE CLAIMING (11 years after the birth of the twins) CATHERINE. The wind blew against my hair, and the sound of the birds chirping set my mood for this early morning walk at the start of spring. I closed my eyes and took in the morning breeze, filling my lungs with fresh air and the minty scent produced by Tyler. Me and my mate were walking hand in hand, threading the path that would lead us to the clearing where our families and friends awaited us. Today was one of the days where we let our pups rule our activities. A day like this, which Summer would say was the best day of her young life. It has been twelve years since the Claiming that turned my life for the better. Twelve years since Tyler and I began building our dreams together, including building a family. The Goddess had blessed us with three beautiful pups: Enzo and Summer, our twins, and our youngest, Autumn Celine. Summer was named after the season in which she was born, and so was Autumn. Sometimes
CATHERINE. I stood at the side of the makeshift baseball field in the middle of this wide clearing with Tyler behind me, with his arms secured around me. Our pups, together with some of the pups from our families and our friends, were here to play baseball. The players, headed by Colton, decided on a tournament. Home versus Guests. Jace, Cyrus, and Alonso coached the Home team, while Zach, Kairo, and Lawrence coached the Guest team. And I could tell, despite this being a friendly game, that the coaches were more invested and competitive than the players. But for some reason, Summer decided she would be playing with the guest team. And your guess was just as good as mine. She wanted to be on the same team as Garett. Garett was Zoey and Andrew’s firstborn son. He was not mine, but he was the son after my own heart. Growing up, he would spend summer vacations here with us, or I would let Enzo spend the summer with them. Although Colton, David, and Enzo were inseparable, Gar
October 08, 2023 PLEASE READ UNTIL THE END. Lovelies, Another journey ends, and words will not be able to express my gratitude to everyone who stayed and finished this book with me. I appreciate your readership — the time, coins, gems, and thoughts you shared with me. The Beta and I is my most emotional book. I couldn't count the number of chapters we all cried together, and I think this book gave the longest hell week in all of my series—from the moment Catherine met Maddox to her time at the Dark Forest territory until the Claiming. But it is an adventure I would always be proud to have taken with all of you. 💜 Tyler and Catherine's story ends today, but it will spiral into more adventures as we go along with the series to meet other characters. The third installment of the ALPHA BLOOD CIRCLE will be Gamma Austin and Lexi's story. The book title is LET THE GAMMA FALL FOR ME. 💗 However, after The Beta and I, I will take a pause with this series and focus on continuing the th
UNEXPECTEDLY MINE - Alpha Joshua and Alice Author's Note: Lovelies, If you have NOT read SHE'S THE LUNA I WANT and THE BETA AND I, some of the scenes and flashbacks here might spoil it for you, so I suggest completing these books before continuing this story. ♡♡♡♡♡ CHAPTER 1. ALICE. My hands sweated as I stared out the window. I was at Catherine and Tyler’s union at the Black Shadow Pack, hiding in one of the private rooms of the ballroom, as I was not really invited here. But I let my brother Roan pitch in for me, and in the end, I was given a go signal to attend. All because Joshua, my fated mate, requested to speak with me, and he thought this was the best place we could meet. I have known Joshua all my life since we were classmates during high school at the Shadow Academy, but as much as he was famous for having so many side chicks, he was a complete asshole. So I tried to stay away. Besides, he was not on my list. When I said my list, it meant the people I needed to be
ALICE. “We’re good. Let’s just get it on so I can release my buildup.” “Excuse me?” I asked, my brows furrowing. Did he just say he wanted a release? Did he want to get on with this mate bond so he could fuck me? “I said, let’s get on with the rejection so I don’t need to stop myself from doing things I’m supposed to do.” My mouth hung open as the words sank in, but I was able to mask my emotions right away. It took a lot to restrain myself from shaking in anger. “Rejection? What the hell was that? Are we not even going to talk about us first?” I asked, trying to sound calm, but I was sure I was failing. “It’s not going to work, Alice.” He took a deep breath before he continued. “My mom does not approve. It will just be hard for both of us. I’m sure your father doesn’t approve as well.” I shook my head, biting my inner cheek before I replied. “Yes, he doesn’t approve.” “So… that’s then.” He took another deep breath, and I knew he would carry on with rejection, but I beat him
ALICE. “Oh, shit!” I mumbled as I stared in horror at my brother while slowly clamping my legs together. My gaze shifted from Roan to Joshua. A smirk tugged on my mate’s lips as his hand withdrew from my throbbing pussy. And as if the smirk was not enough to upset me. He had the nerve to insert his fingers in his mouth and begin sucking them. Good for him because he could not see how the color drained from Roan’s face and how red tints crept into the cheeks of the female beside him. If the floor would just open and swallow me, I would welcome it, take Joshua with me, and push him further into the pits of hell. He was clearly enjoying this while I wanted to pee from the embarrassment of being caught. Of all people, why did it have to be my brother? My chest kept heaving. As soon as I was sure my dress was back in its proper place and was covering my front, my hands went to Joshua’s chest, and I pushed him away. I pushed him hard, but his body jolted only a bit before he slowly
TWO WEEKS LATER. ALICE. The party at Catherine’s union ended, and I never saw Joshua again, only for us to find out that he left even before the party was over, so the rejection never happened. I didn’t want to be rejected, but Roan talked me into it. And maybe he was right. I was better off alone than with someone who wouldn’t even treat me right. Although my wolf was not in agreement, I had made up my mind — I would tell him I was ready for the rejection. A week went by, and I had not heard from him. By the second week, I tried calling their packhouse, but it was always his father who answered the phone, and Joshua was always away. I had introduced myself — my name and not as his mate — and requested to have him call me. I even left my own mobile number, but he never called back. The full moon will be less than a week away, and I didn’t want a repeat of the last time. I was not going to deny that I miss him and that, at night or whenever I could, I would pleasure myself with
ALICE.I was here for almost two hours, and Joshua was still not around. I was hungry and bored, so when River invited me for lunch, I didn’t hesitate and accepted it.Instead of the usual dining room, she took me to the back of the packhouse, to a gazebo where lunch for two people was prepared.“Wow, it’s nice here.” I meant that. You could never go wrong with nature as a view.“I’m glad you like it. The Omegas prepared lunch in the dining room for you, but I thought you might not want to eat alone as nobody is here yet, so I just asked them to put it here so I can eat with you.”My brows furrowed. I took a seat while my eyes followed River as she sat on her chair beside me.“We can also eat together in the dining room,” I said nonchalantly, but I thought I picked up something from her words. “I’m sorry. I know it’s more comfortable there, but I’m not allowed to eat there without Joshua.”“No! I actually like it here better.” I swallowed before I continued. “Can I ask you a question
