DAVID“So, any other important stuff I should know about him?”She seemed thoughtful for a little while.“No. Pretty much, that was it all. You’ll figure it out by yourself, too. As time goes by, and you get to know him better.”I just nodded. After a while in silence, I spoke.“Thank you for the albums. Do you mind if I keep them to make duplicates and send them over to you?” She shook her head.“I made these for you. You can keep them.” She placed her hand on mine, squeezing it, and I felt the sparks circulating from the spot she touched throughout my whole body.“Really?”“Yes.” She nodded.Goosebumps spread all over me just at the idea of her thinking of me all these years. The fact that she made these for me suggests that she may have been thinking of me, correct?She cared.She then started talking about the albums, and I went to my room and fetched them so she could refer to some stories she wanted to share with the pictures.We left for last the one when John was a newborn.“I

ARIADNEMy discussion with David went better than I thought. I told him about John’s persuasion and explained his life while watching the photos.My heart went out to him when he finally understood that he had triggered my daughter’s phobia. He cared, and I knew he felt awful for hurting an innocent child.Later, confiding in him about my pregnancy and labor. All these sad emotions resurfaced. I had buried them deep inside and never thought about them, but David wanted to know, and I needed to share my memories with him, even if they were upsetting. We were once together, united as one, and even if years had passed and our bond was nothing but a sweet memory, I felt the need to tell him everything.We engaged in a lengthy discussion while enjoying wine. We ended up drinking two bottles of that delicious white wine, even if most of the words said were heavy, especially about my pregnancy. And when we ended our discussion, and I lay in bed contemplating all the previous moments, I felt l

DAVID“You’re always welcome to come visit us and stay for as long as you want.” I sincerely told Ariadne, tightening my hold on her.We were at the airport. John, her, and me. I just hoped that she would say fuck it and stay with us, but yeah, we don’t live in fairytales, right?“Thank you.” She glanced at our hands, and I released her. I didn’t want to make her feel awkward.“Just take care of our baby, please.” She whined.“Oh, come on, Mama, I’m not a baby. I can take care of myself. Alone!” John complained, murmuring the last word.“Hush, you’ll always be my baby, even if you’re sixty years old!”«Ελληνίδα Μάνα! » [Greek Mama!] John mumbled, and I smirked at his comment. I’m sure he was ironic about the fact that Ariadne was emotional about letting him stay here with me.“Just call me once in a while. Don’t forget me, huh?” Ariadne was cupping his face and talking to him while staring into his eyes, her thumps circling his cheeks.“I’ll video call every day. I promise.”“Ok, ok. I

JOHN“Your mother was never truly mine.” Dad sighed, and his tears were threatening to fall from his eyes.“She still has feelings,” I mumbled.“John, please. Don’t do this.” He pleaded.“Do what?” I raised my arms, frustrated by this discussion. We could have been together as a family. I could have grown up here with him.“Give me hope.” He whispered resigned.“I’m just stating facts.” I shrugged my shoulders.“If your mother still loved me, she would have stayed here. Instead, she flew away. Once again. At least now it doesn’t hurt as much as then because she left a part of her behind.” He sighed, referring to me.“Well, hope always dies last,” I noted.“You’re speaking like her.”“Can’t help it. She’s my mama.” I blurted, and he smirked.A brief silence stretched between us for a few minutes.“So, what about your other questions?” Dad inquired.“Oh, yes. Why did you only give her a week to hear you out? And most importantly, why did you kidnap her?”He hung his head low, deep in tho

JOHN“Now about the pain… When mates cheat, the one who does the deed doesn’t feel anything. But the other part of the bond experiences excruciating pain. It differs from person to person. To me, it was a pain in the heart and swollen lips; to others, it might be bruises or severe headaches. You’ll see when you find your mate, son. Just a mere thought of another touching what is yours makes you go on a rampage.”“Does Mama know about that? I mean that you heard her with Baba...”“No, no, no! And I beg you. I don’t want her to know. Please.”“Why?”“Because I know her. She would be devastated that she hurt me that way.”“Does anybody else know?” I asked.“Ian just knows that I witnessed her then. Just that. Not the part where I had a suicidal attempt. This is what I’m ashamed of the most. The fact that I wanted to end my life, well, I didn’t even think of that. I just kept walking into the sea till the water covered me entirely.” He painfully admitted.“Why Ian and not Beta Richard? I g

JOHNSummer is my favorite season of the year. Not because I celebrate my birthday in it, but because it’s free of school and homework responsibilities.Plus, the weather is wonderful most of the time and I love chilling under the sun.Well, in Greece, we used to take the tram with my friends and go to the beach, but here in our territory, we didn’t have a sea close enough. Dad and I went for a tour in some packs, and when I found a shore, I took some dives. I missed the sea. But I felt content here. I also met many new people.And without realizing it, August came, and if I wanted to stay, I needed to enroll in high school.Truth be told, the decision to stay had been made by Atlas and me the moment we stepped foot into our territory, but I was playing it an indecisive pup in order to dig up as much information about my dad-mama situation – which I did - and persuade Ian to continue with his Alpha training.In Greece, we had a saying:«Μάθε τέχνη κι άστηνε κι άμα πεινάσεις πιάστηνε.»

JOHN“So how come I haven’t seen you in training?”“I don’t come to train,” Natalie said, shrugging her shoulders.“Why?”“I’m not that strong, and I prefer helping my dad with his job. But he trains me when he has time because I need to be ready for my wolf.”“You should come train with us in the mornings. It’s fun.”“For you, it might be. You seem strong. It’s not nice being beaten every time.” She said blushing.“Oh, you’re right, I get you. Well, you have other strengths, not physical power. If you can successfully complete all these programming tasks, I believe you have a brilliant mind.” I truthfully said tapping her forehead as a way to boost her self-esteem. She seemed not to believe in herself.“Thanks.”“If you don’t like being beaten, as you said, you could hit the gym. You need to build muscles in order to shift. How old are you, by the way?”“Fourteen! Well, fifteen soon.”“So, you have more than a year to prepare for your wolf.” I marked as typical wolves shifted from the

JOHN“Your uppercut has a lot of potential. It would be best if you worked on it further to master it.” Ian stated.“Of course, man. I’ll tell Dad to practice with me.” Dad didn’t even flinch at my punches. It seemed like I had a long way to go to reach his strength.“Great.” He said while we continued sparring.After a while, when we finished, we sat on a bench. I was waiting for Owen, for my second round of sparring, and I could use a break. Ian was tough at training. Second only to Dad.“About tonight. I’m sorry, but I can’t make it.” Ian said placing the lead back on his water bottle.“Oh, why’s that?”“I have a date.” He announced.“Oh!” I wiggled my eyebrows. “Who’s the lucky one?” I taunted him.“I met an interesting woman at the airport. She lives in the city, and I asked her out.”“Which pack?” I asked intrigued.“None. She’s human.” He stated.“Really?” I exclaimed.“Yes, perhaps I could have a long-term relationship this time. My other girlfriends found their mates too soon.

The Alpha Who Stole My Life BOOK 3. MY ALPHA'S SISTER
CHAPTER 2 - She Finally Found MeIAN‘Hey, you there?’ John, my soon-to-be Alpha mind links.I’m just fixing my hair in front of the mirror, threading the comb through my black locks, trying to tame them into place. I like to have the sides of my hair short, but I prefer to keep the center slightly longer and style it upwards with gel or wax.‘Yup.’ I reply, popping the p. I’m in a very good mood today. And why not? Today is the transition of the Alphas in our pack. My now-Alpha David Nathaniel Fortner is passing the torch to his son, John Patrick. A son whose existence was ignorant for fifteen whole years. Back then, before John’s mother and Alpha David’s ex-mate Luna Ariadne decided to bring him to our pack, Alpha David intended to have me as his heir, not only as Alpha to the Golden Moon Pack but to his entire fortune.But luck was in my favor, I guess, because out of nowhere, when I was struggling and ready to drop out of the Alpha training, the rightful heir showed up, and to say

CHAPTER 1 - Watch MeANNELISE“For the third time, Tony. I’m asking you.” I try to keep my voice steady and firm. “Where were you last night?”“Annelise, I’ve told you already. I had to work overtime.”“In that member of the parliament? As security?” I taunt.“Exactly. I’ve told you a thousand times.” Tony whines.“Yes, but I don’t believe you,” I utter, and I have solid proofs in my hands.“You should.” He glances once again in his sports bag to see if he has all his gear inside.“I called the police station, you know…” I trail, and his head snaps in my direction, his eyes throwing daggers at me. “Your colleague told me that you left when your shift ended, dressed in plain clothes, not in your uniform.” I quip. Well, to be exact, I asked what he was wearing, pretending we had a date, and I didn’t want to miss our reservation at a restaurant.“How dare you?” He fumes, prowling at me menacingly. He grabs my chin, turning me to look into his eyes. “How dare you, Annelise? Calling at my j
The Alpha Who Stole My Life BONUS CHAPTER
JOHNSIX MONTHS LATERI jump up from bed, super excited. Today is the day! It’s finally her birthday! All the waiting, all these days. Oh God, it’s in the past. I don’t have to wait anymore.I’ll call her. Wish her ‘Happiest Birthday.’ Ask her out. Go pick her up for our date. Smell her. Make sure she is my mate. I hope. Fingers crossed. Bring her back home, and we live happily ever after. That easy! But of course, fate always has different plans and if you want to make God laugh, just tell him your plans. Mama’s wise words.I wish it was that easy.I glance at my phone. Argh, it’s still six o’clock in the morning. Damnit!It’s too early to call her, right? I don’t want to wake her up or freak her out. She’d be like: ‘Ehm, what were you doing? Watching me in your sleep?’Well, head-scratching. Obviously… For every night those past six months. There wasn’t a single night I hadn’t dreamed of her, and I don’t plan to spend another night with my bed empty and her not by my side.I waited.
The Alpha Who Stole My Life CHAPTER 76 – Hope
JOHNI waved off Mama, Annelise, and Ian with a heavy heart. For the freshly mated couple, I was certain that everything would run smoothly and soon my sister would return as the Beta Female of the Pack.Hmmm, maybe I should buy her a saddle for Herc now that I’m thinking about it. Yes, as a welcoming gift.But my Mama? What happened to her? She was crying, and she was upset. And she lied, yeah, like… right on my face. Mama would always evade the truth with diplomacy instead of lying. But now she didn’t even register that she just uttered a lie because the next moment she came up with another. I didn’t pressure her. I didn’t tell her that I knew she was lying. I just let her go. It seemed that things were already awkward; I shouldn’t meddle in and make them worse.I sighed. I knew that soon we would have to see our guests off, but honestly, now this was the last thought that occupied my mind.First and foremost was Gabriella. Always Gabriella. My dreams yesterday were full of her, twir

ARIADNE«Μαμά; Είσαι καλά; » [“Mama? Are you alright?”]“Mama?”“Mama?”Why did he have to do this to me? Why didn’t he let me go without torturing me anymore? Wasn’t it enough that I still loved him despite everything that had happened between us? Do you know how hard it was to love someone you cannot have? And worst of all, for so many years?How hard was I trying to avoid him when I was here? How hard was I trying to keep him out of my mind? Out of sight, out of mind, they say. My ass!All these years of trying in vain. I still loved him. Every particle of my body was reacting to his presence, and even though I could wear the mask of indifference, I could no longer hold it. This song broke all my resolve. Every brick I built, raising walls to keep my love for him out of the picture, it just crumbled them down, and my heart prevailed.But unfortunately, I couldn’t keep him out of my head. No more. No matter how hard I tried. Twenty-two years didn’t help heal my broken heart. It would

DAVIDThe meeting last night went well. I was confident, and I had faith that Ian would make it through it all unharmed.Before eating breakfast, John and I went to the warrior’s dining room in the packhouse. Because a few guests had already begun their breakfast, it was essential for us to make our presence felt like hospitable hosts. When all the pleasantries ended, we went to the other dining room where we used to eat.I sat in my seat, glancing at Ariadne, who was sitting silently, picking her food. John and Annelise were bantering, and Ian was drooling over her.I didn’t want to speak in case I told something and provoked or annoyed Annelise, so I kept silent. I should think of a way to approach her when she finally comes and claims her post as a Beta Female of this pack. Jessica, Ian’s stepmother, never wanted to take on these duties. She was from the Delta ranks as a doctor, and her career always came before the pack. When my Beta Richard found her, he was ecstatic. He was thril
The Alpha Who Stole My Life CHAPTER 73 – Not a Chance
ALPHA AUGUSTINFinally, we were out of The Golden Moon territory and away from the fiasco they all called Alpha Ceremony.Honestly now?My mind couldn’t conjure how my best friend, my Alpha-Mate, decided to hand in the pack to an abomination of nature.I hated the fact that he was mated to a human. I tried to speak sense into him a million times and make him understand that he shouldn’t degrade his bloodline by accepting a mere human for a mate. But he never listened. He didn’t even want to hear my arguments from some point on. He always stopped me before I could even start talking.I was so relieved when she dumped him and left him. Hoping for a second chance mate for him. A strong Alpha female. That was what David was worthy of.I was mated to a special Alpha female, and he? He was mated to a Nothing. A mere little human!I hated Ariadne with all my being. I argued so many times with Marion about her. Something that made me loathe her even more.But her leaving back then was the best
The Alpha Who Stole My Life CHAPTER 72 – Sorry is Not Enough
JOHNI was less than a minute out of the office when I bumped into Agatha. Ian was already heading out for his run, so I was alone.“Oh, just the person I needed. Alpha John…” She waved at me, approaching. Alpha Cornelious was standing by the door just outside Dad’s office.“Mrs. Agatha.” I started and was interrupted by a loud cackle. I swear her laughter was aimed to awaken all our guests! My intention was solely to be polite at that moment.“It’s Agatha.” She instructed when she finally managed to compose herself. “So, I needed your help, because I don’t want to freak out the poor people…”“Just tell me why Annelise isn’t coming to her senses?” Ian snapped, interrupting her, walking toward us in long strides. He might have heard her and returned.“Oh! Just kiss her good morning, Beta Ian. Easy peasy! A true love’s kiss has the power to solve almost anything. A mate’s kiss is even better!” She marveled.Ok! She was a witch. Witches and fairytales go hand in hand, no?“Are you sure? I
