"Beta Tyler" A loud masculine voice called from the living room. "What's the issue?" Tyler asked, walking down the spiral stairs that led into his living room. "The Alpha is here" the man replied and Tyler's eyes squinted. He gulped down nervously and bit down on his lips but shook off his nervousness the next second. Slipping his hands out of his pockets, he walked further into the living room where Alpha Carl was just making his entry. "Good morning Alpha Carl. You are here quite early" he greeted with a nervous smile that Alpha Carl immediately noted. "I thought it would be better if I came over early. I still need to get to work later on and I have other things to handle""Please have your seat" Tyler responded but Alpha Carl simply shrugged. "Where's the spy?""He.... He's dead" Tyler replied and Alpha Carl's brows arched. "How come?""I apologise. I was just interrogating him and I guess he could not stand it. He wasn't strong enough so he died"Alpha Carl was silent for
After about a minute of silence, Tyler stood up from the wooden chair and forced out a smile "It sounds very unbelievable that your mate bond was manipulated. You... You can't be making things up, right?" Tyler questioned slowly. "You have access to Cardia too. You should ask her if you don't believe me"Tyler bit hard on his lower lips, hurt visible in his eyes. "Then what about me? Who is my mate then? If it was your mate bond that was manipulated, why am I involved in it?" He groaned. "Tyler, I am going to find out who is behind all of this and I am going to settle this. Then, you'd be able to find your own mate, I am sure"Tyler looked away from him to the body on the bed. He took in a deep breath and let out the same. "This.... This is very hard for me. It's hard for me to let go of Ethel. I had feelings for her even before she turned out to be my mate which you are letting me know she is not. Why... Why do I have to lose her to you?" He groaned painfully. Alpha Carl place
Alpha Carl alighted from his car and Ethel ran towards him, a beautiful smile on her face. A small smile played on Alpha Carl's lips as he watched her race towards him, her pink coloured gown flying in the air after her. Alpha Carl spread his arms wide open and Ethel ran into his embrace. Ethel hugged him tightly, her arms wrapping around his body. "Hey, this is one tight hug. Did anything happen while I was away at work?" Alpha Carl asked, the small smile still playing on his lips as her body pressed against his body. "Nothing happened" Ethel mumbled, pulling away from the hug slowly. "Are you sure about that, Angel?" He bent slightly to get the same height as her and gently tucked her hair behind her ears, letting his fingers linger on her skin. "Of course" Ethel smiled softly. "I just missed you" she added. "Oh, I miss you too. If we had even a million years to spend together, I won't be satisfied" Alpha Carl lifted her up into his arms in bridal style and Ethel giggled.
Ethel's eyes were hazy with pleasure and there was nothing she wanted more than relief from the edge that he had brought her to and left her at. "I.... I will" Her lips trembled out the words. A smile of satisfaction spread across Alpha Carl's face and in a second, he was back between her legs. He worked his fingers to her pussy and buried two fingers inside of her. Ethel moaned and immediately after that sensual sound, Alpha Carl's fingers fucked her roughly and Ethel's voice turned louder as she lifted her hips off the couch. "Oh my! I... I am cumming!" She moaned as his fingers continued to roughly fuck into her tightening wetness. As her body calmed down from the climax she had just reached, Alpha Carl's finger fucking turned gentler. He eventually removed his fingers from inside of her and took it into his mouth.He licked his fingers, his eyes holding up her own eyes. "Now you have to take care of this. You little teasing Angel" He picked her up from the couch and kisse
"Lucy" The door of her room opened and her dad walked into the room, shutting the door behind him. "Dad" Lucy mumbled, sitting up on the bed and dropping her phone. "You remember the words you said while you were drunk last night?" Her father asked, taking a chair and sitting on it, just beside the bed. Lucy slowly nodded her head. "What would you do if your mother had heard those words? I am telling you, Lucy. You have to be careful with yourself! You cannot go around drinking and getting drunk. "Lucy again nodded her head. "Stop nodding your head and speak up. What exactly is happening?" He requested to know. "I already told you what is happening" she groaned. "He does not love me at all. Yes, he acknowledges that he is my mate but he wants nothing to do with me as his mate. The only relationship he wants with me is the brother and sister in law relationship" she added. "Ethel, that little witch" her father gritted his teeth. "Why don't we just give up on trying to make me
Alpha Carl and Ethel walked into the fancy restaurant. Alpha Carl was totally composed but Ethel was absolutely nervous but was trying hard to make it not show. Alpha Carl was going to correct anyone who addressed her as Lucy and it was sure to spread like wildfire that Alpha Carl had gone on a date with his twin's mate. Her hands were terribly sweaty and she hoped that her face was not getting sweaty too. "It's alright, Ethel. I am here with you" Alpha Carl took her hand and gave it a soft caress as they both walked inside the restaurant. There were few people in the restaurant and as soon as they noticed the presence of the two. They all greeted the Alpha. A particular lady walked up to them and with a nervous smile on her face, she bowed deeply to Alpha Carl. "Alpha Carl" she greeted and raised her head up. "And the future Luna, Lucy." She smiled at Ethel and that was when Ethel recognized that she was Lucy's friend. Ethel had seen her one or two times with Lucy. Ethel had
Lucy shut the door of her room behind her and locked it from behind. She was sure that she had looked very disturbed to her mum. She would have to play being disturbed for a few days before coming up with the suicide threat so as to make it more believable. She climbed into her bed, picked her phone from the bedside table and turned it on. Immediately she logged into social media, she was welcomed with a news that shocked her to her bones. Ethel and Alpha Carl had gone out on a public date and Alpha Carl had not even lied about the identity of Ethel. Lucy could barely believe what she was seeing. The next second, messages were dropping and Lucy did not have to take a look at them to know what they were about. She felt covered up in sweat all of a sudden. Ethel had done what she did not expect of her at all. "This.... This cannot be possible" she shook her head and just then he'd phone rang with a call from one of her friends. With shaky hands, she picked up the call. "Hello L
Tyler stared at the phone in his hand, surprised that Alpha Carl had decided to make his relationship with Ethel known so soon. Maybe he just could not hold it back?"He should have at least seen Cardia about the mate bonding before doing this" He sighed heavily. Tyler had gone to see Cardia, just to confirm what he had heard from Alpha Carl but he had gotten addition information from her on how to restore their mate bond and it was one process he was not sure that Ethel would agree to. "Whatever it is, I'd be wishing them good luck" he mumbled. *The next day"You are not going to work, Alpha?" Ethel asked, noticing that Alpha Carl was not preparing for work. "You are right" he replied. "Why?" She asked softly. "Because I need to stay home today. I have so many things to deal with today, Angel" he finished with buttoning up his casual shirt. "I am really sorry that I have to bring all of this upon you" Ethel mumbled and Alpha Carl chuckled. "You really have an habit of think
"Do you, Carl Hillard, the Alpha of the River Alley Pack take Ethel Adams as your wife and Luna, to stand by her and be with her all the remaining days of your lives, in good and bad health, in good and bad situations, to offer her strength when she needs it, to be her husband?" The priest asked. This time, Alpha Carl was much more at peace knowing that no one would barge in to inform them of an attack on their Pack. "I do" Alpha Carl replied all smiles. The priest gave a small nod and turned towards Ethel. "Do you, Ethel Adams take Carl Hillard, the Alpha of the River Alley Pack as your husband, to stand by him and be with him all the remaining days of your lives, in good and bad health, in good and bad situations, to offer him strength when he needs it, to be his wife?""I do" Ethel replied, almost too quickly. Alpha Carl chuckled at how ecstatic she was. Like they had planned, there were very few people at this wedding. They put on the rings and Alpha Carl had his chance to
A week later"You know I still can't push away the fact that our wedding wasn't perfect. We didn't even get any wedding shots or even get to dance" Alpha Carl pointed out, his arms wrapped around her waist in a back hug while his face was buried in her neck. "Yes, that's right" Ethel pouted and ran her fingers down to his own fingers, feeling the moon ring on his fingers.It was still shining, even after Lucy had survived. "I was thinking...." He turned her to face him and kept his hands on her waist. "How about we retake our vows? I am sure our pup would love that" he bent down and kissed her stomach.Ethel smiled as he stood up straight. "We already did the vows...." She started. "But you are right. I was planning on dancing and taking loads of pictures but none of that happened and our rings too...." She raised her hands up. "We could only find yours when we returned to where we dropped it" she grumbled with a cute pout. Alpha Carl ruffled her hair fondly "That's that. I wo
Ethel let her body drop into the nearest sofa as soon as she was in the living room. Tears filled her eyes again. The Pack members were cheering at their success but she was crying at her loss. She could not even tell her mother yet. She did not know how to break the news to the poor woman, how to tell her that barely a month after her husband died, her daughter had also died. They had confirmed that she snuck out of the house and they had no idea where her body was."Ethel" Alpha Carl whispered her name and scooped her into his arms. "It's going to be fine" he whispered and kissed her forehead while she sobbed into his chest. Suddenly the telephone rang but the two in the living room were in no mood to pick it up until Alpha Carl raised his hand to pay Ethel's hair and realized that the moon ring's light was flickering. "Flickering...." He mumbled the word and Ethel's eyes widened, seeing that. "Lucy.... She is probably not dead" the both of them shot up from their seat. Ethe
Surprise, shock and yet relief ran through Alpha Carl's body as he realized that the moon ring's powers was now with him. But it meant one thing, Lucy was dead.... Someone had killed her or she had killed herself to save the entire Pack. With his paw raised up and the moon ring's light shining brightly, everyone froze. The enemies froze because they knew they were doomed, the River Alley Pack members froze because they were relieved, Ethel and Tyler froze because they were breaking apart. Lucy was dead! They had lost her!Crumbling to the floor, Ethel shifted back to her human form. "Noooooooooooo!!" Ethel screamed out loud, breaking the silent freeze the moon ring's light had caused. "Lucy!" She cried out as her heart wrecked with pains. Her twin sister was dead. This was a nightmare she hated! She didn't want Lucy dead, she wanted her alive. Tyler's eyes filled with tears. He had asked her not to harm herself, he had told her not to die as long as he was alive but she went ah
Lucy was seated at the edge of the bed in her room, her feet shaking badly and sweats pouring down from her forehead. Suddenly, the door opened and beta Tyler walked in. Lucy was shocked to see him. They were in the middle of a war, how could the beta leave the war?"Beta... Beta Tyler?" Her voice was shaky and she could hardly speak in one breath. Was he here to eliminate her on behalf of the Pack? She was willing to do so now, anyways. "Are you here to get rid of me?" She asked, her voice still shaky. "Very much the contrary. Ethel was worried about you trying something stupid. She wanted me to come check on you and assure you that things are going fine" he replied, sitting on the sofa inside of the room. "Are.... Are things going fine?" She stuttered out. "Not at all. Things are going from bad to worse. We are losing men. Though we have managed to get rid of a lot, we are still very much behind" he replied. "Then why are you here? You... You should be there, fighting for t
Lucy's lips parted in a whimper. The bouquet of flowers in her hands fell to the floor. With another pack onto them, she knew they could not win, unless they brought the moon ring to shine, unless they killed her. She trembled with fear and her eyes filled up with tears. "N.... No" she shook her head in disbelief. She wanted what was happening right now to be just one nightmare of hers that stemmed from her fears but it wasn't a nightmare, this was reality. Just when she thought that her life could be good, just when she thought life could be peaceful for her, everything had come crashing down upon her. She wished she had never said yes to being the fake mate of the Alpha. Now, their fake manipulated bond was too strained to even work. Even if Alpha Carl slept with her and marked her right now, the moon ring still would not shine. Everything was on to her life. Her death was the only thing that could save everyone but death scared her, she didn't want to die yet. Ethel, see
"Do you, Carl Hillard, the Alpha of the River Alley Pack take Ethel Adams as your wife and Luna, to stand by her and be with her all the remaining days of your lives, in good and bad health, in good and bad situations, to offer her strength when she needs it, to be her husband?""I do" Alpha Carl replied, more than willingly. "Do you, Ethel Adams take Carl Hillard, the Alpha of the River Alley Pack as your husband, to stand by him and be with him all the remaining days of your lives, in good and bad health, in good and bad situations, to offer him strength when he needs it, to be his wife?"With a huge smile on her face and her hands clutching tightly the flowers, Ethel said the words. "I do"Loud cheering erupted amongst the guests as the vows were made The rings were brought forward and Alpha Carl slipped the ring into Ethel's fingers, his heart racing as he did so. She was finally his woman!Ethel equally slipped the wedding ring into his finger and the both of them raised thei
The Wedding Day"Are you sure I look good?" Ethel asked for the hundredth time after dressing up. "You look perfect, Ethel. Trust me" Lucy assured her and turned to their mother. "Doesn't she look perfect, mum?" She asked. The three of them were in a huge room that had been earlier filled with the people doing the perfect makeover for Ethel. "She does, she looks more beautiful than I looked on my wedding day with your father" their mother replied and the atmosphere of the room turned slightly sour. "You did not have to mention father" Lucy pointed out. "I am sorry. I... I just spoke, I did not think about it""It's okay. It's a happy day" Ethel lightened the air with a huge smile on her face. "That's right" Lucy affirmed. Lucy equally looked beautiful in her pink gown, her hair was styled beautifully and her makeup complimented her beauty. Lucy walked close to Ethel and adjusted the dress. "Is there anything wrong?" Ethel asked. "Not at all. And don't be nervous, Ethel. Eve
"I think this one looks really good" Ethel said, standing in front of a wedding gown. "No, no and no. You are becoming the Luna. This..." She pointed at the gown. "Is not good enough" she shook her head. "There is no such thing as you being a simple, beautiful bride. You are going to be a sophisticated beautiful bride" she added and Ethel chuckled. "Alright then. Why don't you choose cause I really do not know what to pick?" she responded. "Alright then" Lucy mumbled and looked around at the wedding gowns. "What about this one?" Lucy asked, standing in front of a sophisticated wedding gown. The wedding gown was decorated with tiny gems that caught the light of the room. It was a gown that would definitely catch the attention of even thousands of people. Lucy was sure Ethel would look elegant, beautiful and expensive in the dress. It was perfect."You have to pick this, Ethel.""It's really beautiful. You made a better choice""Leave things like this to me. I will make sure yo
