Tangled With The Fated Mates 26| Founders Day
The Founder's Day Ball, an evening uniting residents of all ages and backgrounds, both human and werewolf, was approaching. The town boasted a vibrant history; initially settled by subsistence farmers, it had flourished over the years as they amassed wealth and population. Expanding their territory, they leased land to interested individuals. The annual celebration marked their collective achievements with festive fanfare.Arielle fussed over the ball, dreaming of finding a mate there. Only at such events did she feel truly pretty; on regular days, she considered herself just passable. Imagining her appearance at the ball, she envisioned herself in expensive, albeit flashy, dresses adorned with jewelry. She hoped that dressing to impress might lead her to a potential mate."Mom, I still have no idea what to wear, and the ball is just two days away," she exclaimed to Mrs. Zaynader over breakfast."Language, girl," Mr. Zaynader reprimanded, to which she rolled her eyes."Don't worry,
Tangled With The Fated Mates 27| The Impending Threat
In the dimly lit confines of an abandoned warehouse, where sporadic light bulbs cast a faint glow, Reid and his band of rogues underwent intense training. The gritty atmosphere resonated with the sounds of their movements, harmonising with the occasional wind howl seeping through cracks in the walls.Amid this, four groups were engaged in one-on-one combat, their grunts and groans saturating the air with the intensity of their battles. Notably, Reid faced off against both Keeran and Tommy simultaneously, revealing his raw strength through a seamless fusion of strikes, dodges, and strategic manoeuvres that challenged the conventional norms of single combat."You're both moving too slowly," Reid remarked to Tommy and Keeran, "and attack as a team, not as individuals. Remember, you're facing an alpha! I'm the next thing to a god!" His words carried an air of confidence, underlining the aura of authority he sought to establish in the training session.As he spoke, Reid effortlessly dodge

Claudine seemed to think the adage "third time's a charm" proved true as she slipped out of the house again. Unbeknownst to her, Arielle had keenly observed her departure. Upon Claudine's return with Lumos by her side, she found Arielle waiting in the outhouse, nestled in her small bed, arms folded, and wearing a petulant expression."You, where are you coming from?" Arielle said without standing up."I-I-I..." Claudine stuttered. She had never thought that she would be caught. Arielle and her parents always seemed heavily engaged in the evenings. They had never summoned her or asked about her during those times, so she concluded that it was perfectly safe to leave the house at that time. She had not anticipated her elder foster sister sitting on her bed. Her face squinched so that she looked like an owl, asking her of her whereabouts."Ohh, please, Claudine," Arielle said, rising to her feet. "Spit it out. I don't have all fucking night. The ball is tomorrow, and I need to get
Tangled With The Fated Mates 29| Chaos Ball
The Founder's Day Ball turned the ordinary-looking streets into a magical carnival, with people adorned in masks filling the space. Every corner, embellished with vibrant decorations, created a swirling burst of colours beneath the greyish night sky, illuminated by the gentle twinkle of fairy lights.Denzel and Nira arrived in style, pulling up in a vibrant red sports car to join the bustling event. The streets pulsated with the lively beats of a live band performance, and fire dancers twirled flames in a captivating dance. Distant fireworks erupted, painting the night sky with vivid hues. Cars decked out with floral arrangements and ribbons lined the streets, serving as transportation and exclusive lounges for the attendees.As Denzel looked for a parking space, he glanced at the bubbly scene outside their car, an air of disinterest apparent on his face. Nira, sensing his subdued mood, turned toward him."Why so unenthusiastic, Denzel? This is supposed to be a celebration," she remar

Claudine felt this sudden burst of wind brush against her, leaving her with an eerie shiver down her spine. Though she couldn't see the source, she sensed this unexplained presence. Puzzled yet intrigued, she turned to Ezrianna and asked, "Did you feel that? There was this sudden surge of electrifying energy, and for a moment, it felt like someone was right here with us."Ezrianna, wanting to guard Denzel's identity, downplayed it. "It's just the wind, silly.""No, it's more than that," Claudine insisted, shaking her head. "I felt a presence, a warmth that's making me feel like I'm on fire.""On fire," Ezrianna jinxed the words with Claudine, adding, "you feel like you might explode if you don't find whoever it is.""Yes, exactly! How do you know? Do you have any idea who it could be?"As Ezrianna was about to reply, a sudden rush of wind enveloped them, leaving both girls bewildered. The cause, an unseen figure, continued to dart around them in a swift, blurry dance, drawing their pu
Tangled With The Fated Mates 31| THOUGHTS
Beneath a solemn shroud of gray clouds, the moon discreetly withdrew, enveloping the returning werewolf pack's route in profound darkness. The lupine eyes of the werewolves gleamed in the darkness like little yellow bulbs. Unseen creatures stirred in the sacred groves. Denzel, Ronald, Nira and Cordelia, somewhere in the middle of the collective pack making their way to the mansion, were walking in a group of their own."I get that Nira's in danger, but why summon the entire pack back?" Ronald questioned, still bewildered by Denzel summoning the entire pack back."We've got a traitor among us," Denzel replied in a low murmur.Nira's eyes widened in surprise. "What?"Denzel nonchalantly shrugged, coming to a halt mid-step. "Yeah, you heard me. I've got this gut feeling that tonight's murder at the founder's ball wasn't just a random thing."Cordelia interjected, "So, you think it's a setup?"Denzel nodded. "Exactly. Consider this – who else knows about Nira's powers? Someone is trying t
Tangled With The Fated Mates 32| Grief
Moss, Keeran, and Reid swiftly retreated, vanishing into the darkness engulfing the forest once more as the moon crept underneath the shroud of gray clouds. Meanwhile, Denzel's previously bleeding neck revealed the remarkable regenerative abilities of werewolves. Consumed by heartbreak, he held himself responsible for all that had transpired, especially his powerlessness during the battle when the witch subdued him to the floor.Cordelia had bravely protected Nira in the intense battle, shielding her from the onslaught of attacks launched at them. Even when she had gotten shot with a wolfsbane bullet she had kept on fighting, enduring the pain. As their adversaries retreated, she finally succumbed, collapsing onto the forest floor. The insidious effects of the wolfsbane thwarted her natural healing, and Nira, overwhelmed with worry, knelt by her side, tears streaming down her face."I'm so sorry I put you in this mess," Nira said, her voice choking with emotion. "The witch was blockin
Tangled With The Fated Mates 33| Repercussion
She felt as she had the first time she got to the house — dejected, hopeless, the crushing feeling of loneliness threatening to squeeze her heart to a mute stop. She paced the cramped room, sat on the too-small bed, and got back up in what was a mixture of confusion and frustration. Lumos sat in a corner of the room, napping. It occurred to her that at some point she would need to sleep, too, to rest her body and mind, but with the way her mind ran wild with thoughts, she knew that would be impossible. After a few hours, the weak light of dawn came into the room in dull slants."Morning," she said under her breath, realizing that Arielle would soon come for her.And she was right, in a few minutes, the door swung open and Arielle — her face sagging and worn out, her disposition irritatable — walked in. Claudine could see that she was in trouble. She stumbled to her feet to face her elder foster sister."G-good morning, Arielle," she said.Arielle simply nodded — a gesture more of

Tangled With The Fated Mates 105: Our little wolves
As the full moon rose high in the night sky, the pack gathered in the heart of the forest, surrounded by towering trees that swayed gently in the breeze. The air vibrated with excitement and anticipation as they celebrated the ancient ritual of the Lunar Festival. A majestic bonfire crackled and danced in the center of the clearing, casting a warm, golden glow over the sea of faces. Ronald and Cordelia, hand in hand, mingled with the others, their joy infectious. Kris and Kate laughed and chatted with Mary, while the rest of the pack shared stories, played music, and danced under the starry canopy. Just as the festivities reached a crescendo, a murmur of welcome rippled through the crowd as Denzel and Claudine emerged from the darkness, their twin bundles of energy, Ember and Ash, perched on their hips. The twins' eyes sparkled like fireflies as they took in the vibrant scene, their chubby fists clinging to their parents' shoulders. Claudine smiled warmly, her eyes shining with hap

Claudine savored the warmth of her coffee, cradling the mug in her hands as she settled into the plush couch. The morning sunlight streaming through the window highlighted the dust motes dancing in the air, casting a serene ambiance over the living room. Her tranquil moment was short-lived, as the sound of tiny footsteps echoed from the hallway, growing louder with each passing second. Suddenly, Ember and Ash, her rambunctious three-year-old twins, burst into the room, their bright blue eyes sparkling with mischief. "Mommy!" they chimed in unison, launching themselves at Claudine. She opened her arms, embracing the chaos that came with her tiny tornados. Ember climbed onto Claudine's lap, spilling coffee everywhere, while Ash tugged at her hair, playing a game of "Mommy's hair salon." Toys scattered across the floor as the twins' energy infectiously spread throughout the room. Blocks, dolls, and crayons flew through the air, creating a colorful whirlwind. Claudine's coffee mug teet
Tangled With The Fated Mates 103: A happy beginning
Three years had passed since the battle-scarred days, and Claudine's world had transformed. Her home, once a sanctuary from the darkness, now resonated with laughter and joy. In the sun-drenched living room, her rambunctious twins, Ember and Ash, chased each other, their giggles echoing off the walls. Claudine sat on the couch, watching with a contented smile, her eyes shining with happiness. The room was filled with the warm scent of freshly baked cookies, wafting from the kitchen, where Denzel had spent the morning cooking up a storm. As she gazed out the window, Claudine's thoughts drifted to Ezrianna, remembering the sacrifices made for their freedom. Just then, Denzel entered, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he smiled. He swooped behind Claudine, enveloping her in a gentle hug, his lips brushing against her ear. "Hey, love. Enjoying the chaos?" Claudine leaned into his warmth, feeling the tension melt away. "Every minute," she whispered, twisting to meet his lips in a tend

Claudine's legs buckled as she reached Ezrianna's side, her body wracked with sobs. She gently cradled Ezrianna's lifeless form, holding her close as tears streamed down her face. "No, no, no... Ezrianna, please don't leave me," Claudine whispered, her voice trembling. Denzel approached, his eyes red-rimmed, and wrapped his arms around Claudine, holding her steadfast as she mourned. "She saved me, Denzel... She saved us all," Claudine stammered between sobs. Denzel's grip tightened, his own emotions barely contained. "We'll honor her memory, Claudine. We'll make sure her sacrifice isn't forgotten." Claudine's hold on Ezrianna's body tightened, as if unwilling to let go. "I couldn't protect her... I couldn't save her." Denzel's gentle voice countered, "You did everything you could, Claudine. Ezrianna knew that. She chose to give her life to save yours." Claudine's anguish only intensified, her cries echoing through the desolate landscape.Claudine's grief-boiled rage propelled her to
Tangled With The Fated Mates 101: Sacrifice for victory
Ezrianna and Lyra clashed, their magic swirling in a spectacular display, the air crackling with energy as they exchanged blows. The battle-scarred terrain around them bore witness to their relentless struggle, the earth scorched and smoldering from their clashing powers. Lyra summoned a maelstrom of dark tendrils, but Ezrianna countered with a burst of radiant light, the shadows recoiling before the purity of her magic. Undeterred, Lyra conjured a massive shadowy entity, its jaws wide open to devour Ezrianna, but the ancient magic surged through her, calling upon the land itself to aid her. The earth trembled, and a burst of stone and soil engulfed the entity, shattering it into nothingness. Lyra stumbled back, her eyes widening in desperation, her dark magic faltering.Ezrianna's eyes blazed with fury as she unleashed her devastating banshee scream, the sound wave crashing into Lyra like a physical force. Simultaneously, she channeled her ancient witch powers, summoning a maelstrom
Tangled With The Fated Mates 100: Battle ready
Reid strode through the mist-shrouded forest, his boots pounding against the earth as he returned to the Bluefur Pack's territory. The familiar scent of his pack's lands enveloped him, a calming balm after his prolonged absence. As he emerged from the trees, the pack's village came into view, its wooden structures bathed in the pale light of dawn. Reid's eyes swept across the gathering area, where his warriors awaited his return. With a nod, he signaled the start of their campaign against the Blackmoon Pack. His warriors, battle-hardened and loyal, fell into formation behind him. Reid's gaze burned with determination as he addressed his pack. "Today, we reclaim our honor and assert our dominance. The Blackmoon Pack will know our strength." His words were met with a chorus of growls and snarls, the warriors' eagerness palpable. Reid's transformation from werewolf to human was complete, his powerful physique and chiseled features now clad in battle-worn leather armor. "We march for Bl

Inside the warehouse, Denzel leaned over a large map of the territory, his finger tracing the borders. "We need to strengthen our defenses here, here, and here," he said, his voice firm. "Reid's been quiet for too long. We can't assume he's given up." Kris nodded, his eyes scanning the map. "I agree. We should also increase patrols and train more werewolves for combat." Jacob scribbled notes on a nearby chalkboard. "I'll work on strategizing patrol routes and scheduling training session. Let's move on to border reinforcements." Meanwhile, in a secluded clearing deep within the nearby forest, Ezrianna stood before a glowing crystal, her hands weaving intricate patterns in the air. Her eyes closed, focusing on the ancient magic coursing through her veins. "Astra, lignum, ignis," she whispered, conjuring a blazing sphere of light. The sphere danced before her, responding to her every gesture. Claudine's paws pounded the earth as she sprinted across the training grounds, her werewolf fo
Tangled With The Fated Mates 98: Away
As the moon dipped below the horizon, casting a dark shadow over Gettysburg's battle-scarred landscape, Reid and Elena prepared for the forbidden ritual. They stood within a circle of candles, their flickering flames dancing across the faces of the ancient tombstones. Elena's hands moved with deliberate precision, etching intricate symbols into the earth. Reid watched, his eyes burning with determination, as she poured a crimson liquid into the center of the circle. "The blood of the innocent," she whispered, "to awaken the Devouring Shadow." Reid's jaw clenched, his voice low and urgent. "Will this truly grant me the power I need?" Elena's gaze met his, her eyes grave. "The spell will tap into the underworld's darkness, channeling its energy into you. But remember, Reid, this power comes at a terrible cost. Your soul will be forever changed." Reid's resolve didn't waver. "I'll do whatever it takes to avenge Ariella. Let's begin." Elena nodded, producing a small, leather-bound book
Tangled With The Fated Mates 97: Whatever it takes (2)
Reid paced restlessly within his chambers, his mind racing with growing unease. Ariella should have returned by now. Something was amiss. His instincts screamed warnings, and his heart clenched with worry. He strode to the window, gazing out into the darkness, his eyes scanning the horizon as if willing Ariella to appear. Suddenly, he spun around, his fingers flying across the communication device. "Keeran," he growled, his voice low and urgent. His beta's voice crackled through the line. "Yes, alpha?" "Has Ariella returned?" Reid demanded, his patience fraying. Keeran's hesitation was palpable. "No, my lord. There's been no sign of her." Reid's grip on the device tightened, his knuckles whitening. "Find out what's happened," he snarled, his voice dripping with menace. "Now." The line went dead, and Reid's eyes burned with a fierce determination. He would uncover the truth, no matter the cost. Ariella's safety was paramount, and he would stop at nothing to ensure her return.After a
