“Yes! Yes! I’ll marry you,” I said with tears in my eyes. I have been waiting for this my whole life. Oishin was smiling. He took the ring, a white gold ring laced with small blue diamond and at the centre was a white square shaped with Diamond. It looked like his family heirloom but it was slightly modified. He then inserted it in my ring finger.“I’m glad I finally replaced the ring I gave you years ago. And I’m sorry it took me so long,” he said. “Silly,” I said. “I don’t care what kind of ring you would have given me as long as there’s you and me,” I replied as I watched the ring. “Soon when Eion is old enough to marry his mate, I’ll pass this ring down to him as our family heirloom.”“Whatever you want, baby,” Oishin replied and kissed me on my head.After the night Oishin proposed to me, we decided to honor every wolf who fought against the Elders before the preparations of our wedding and the handing down of the castle to him. East Wolves were actually the descendants of the
Sitting in the darkness of my room, I looked out of the window while I was sitting on a rocking chair gazing at the castle nearby under the light of the moon. It was crazy to think that I'd be living there in a few days. My life was a roller coaster. There were ups and downs to almost making me lose hope of becoming happy again. After many trials thrown on me, I survived it all. I gave up my pride, just to be with the person who was all my first. The person I never expected to be my soon-to-be husband, the king. Today had been incredible, the chatter in the living room never died down and I'd laughed more than I had. Anne was alive and I couldn’t ask for more. Finally, Tempest was a safe place now for both wolves, in packs or prefered to be alone. A knock on my door shook me out of reminiscing, as I walked towards it I tried not to fall. It was so dark in here and some of my clothes were still on the floor from when I changed into my dress to my pregnancy nighties. Mustering up th
My sweaty hands clenched and unclenched repeatedly, while my hammering heart was threatening to burst through my chest. Fleetingly, I looked around behind the trees, observing the entire werewolf community observing how Oishin was standing beside Yuhan and waiting for me. We were going to complete the coronation together and to become proclaimed as the King and Queen of Wolves."You're nervous, Aine. Breathe, please." Anne said with a small laugh, she was hiding with me. She and Mom helped me get ready, my curls were cascading down my back in waves and the light makeup helped in hiding my heated cheeks. The dress was my favorite part of the outfit though, it had to flash purity and be a little fluffy. I chose a white dress, and slightly conservative style, something you can see royals wearing giving me a natural, but elegant vibe.Feeling an intense gaze hitting me, I searched the crowd of werewolves and found my children looking at me. Eion, as the heir and the first prince, was we
Aine's Point of View “It’s your time, Aine,” Dad said when I was about to eat. It was odd seeing him eating with us despite how he hated me and blamed me for my sister’s death. “Time for what, Dad?” I said, and started to swallow hard. Something is not right here. “It’s time for you to be engaged to a male wolf.” That was all it took for me to lose it. I couldn't believe this. How could it be my time? I'm not even giving up yet and they are trying to force me to be with someone. What's the rush? "Why?!" I panicked. "You’re still mateless despite passing the right age. The Alpha thinks you should have a mate already. He offered us to find you one. You must thank him. At least you’re not a failure. If Anne was still alive, she would have pulled us out of poverty, " Dad said, bored. “Make us proud for once.” “Daniel…!” Mom said. I know he hates me so much even if he’s not showing it. But Anne was dead and it’s not my fault! But manipulating my life? No. "That's not fair! I h
“Aine? What the hell? Do you know what time it is?” A sleepy voice answered my call for the fifth time.“Thank goodness, Lind, you answered my call,” I said, relieved.“What is it? You make it important because you disturb my sleep, girl,” Lindsay said. “Help me. Help me escape. My father and the Alpha arranged a mate for me. I don’t want him. Please help me.” I begged. “Oh…” she said, seeming not interested or trying to process what I said. “OHHH! Damn! That’s a messed up plan, Aine. Let me help you! Tell me what you want me to do,” she added when she finally got what I was trying to say. “Can I stay in your pack temporarily? I mean I’ll leave once I figure out what I am going to do with my life.”“Okay. Just tell me where I am going to pick you up. I already told you to leave your family and your stupid dad before, right? Now look what he did to you,” Lindsay said, scolding me. After I gave her the right address, she was still rumbling words I didn’t want to hear. She hated my
Oishin's Point of ViewAine was a wonderful mate. She helped me alot running the pack. She was one of the kind Luna that ordinary Alpha would have wanted. But not me. I’m no ordinary Alpha. I am to be the Alpha King who will rule the werewolf kingdom and every pack. Aine’s too ordinary. I can't have her as my Luna. I needed someone equal to me. I calmly glance at Cian in the passenger seat across from me.I had made sure not to turn on the radio, so there wouldn't be any distraction from the weight of my alpha waves bearing down on him.From the way his shoulders folded, I knew he was feeling the pressure of it. Cian knew everything and he’s a friend of Aine. He'd been talking to Aine. And I’m afraid he’ll tell her about her. "What did you say was wrong with your car again?" I directed him."The car's transmission is out," he answered dryly. "Had it for ages so it was about time it gave out. It couldn't have picked a better timing though." he ended sarcastically."Hmmm."He glanc
Aine's Point of ViewThe thing about fated mates is that it's like two sides of a coin. It has the ability to make you the happiest person alive, making you whole. But it also has the ability to ruin you, taking you under like an avalanche when you least expect it, snuffing out all of the light, crushing all the air out of your lungs and leaving you numb in complete darkness. For me, Oishin was my everything, he was the oxygen I breathed. I had devoted my entire life to being his person. Ever since that fateful day he'd tilted my world off its axis, when I'd felt my heart beating wildly and my wolf had gotten in a frenzy yelling mate. Because that's what mates were, and he was my soul mate. They were your person. It's someone who finally understands you, truly understands you and you find a small amount of relief in that. They understand all the parts when no one else does or couldn't. It's like you can finally breathe. They were your best friend, your other half. You don't have to
Her name was Caitlin. I was suddenly piecing it together however I still didn't understand. She was Alpha Caitlin from the neighbouring pack but I still couldn't make sense of what introduction they were talking about. Who was her mate? "Of course, you already know this is Oishin's fat help." "I'm Oishin’s mate, not the help." I corrected it. The man laughed dryly and looked at his sister in an I told you so way. Caitlin merely shrugged and smiled back at him. I could feel my cheeks heat up. "If you're his mate, then you haven't been doing a good job. He's been between my sisters' legs every chance he gets. He's practically fucked her everywhere on our pack grounds." At first I thought I didn't hear right. I could feel my insides clench and my breathing got heavy. This is when I started to fall apart, when my very world started to dissolve before my eyes. "That's a lie." He smiled menacingly and a shiver ran down my spine. "You're no longer his mate or Luna, Caitlin is, and th
