Tyga’s Point of View“Mate when with her ex mate!” My wolf has been nagging me ever since we received Aine’s text about her going with Oishin. “I know. Oishin and I talked about this last week. Calm your nerves, Anne will never betray us.”“Ugh, that’s Aine, not Anne. Do not mistake her with someone who’s already dead.”I felt a little bit irritated when my wolf said it like Anne was not our mate. “She was. Now we have a new mate. Don’t mess this up or you’ll regret everything. I knew you were so obsessed with Anne but she’s dead. DEAD!” my wolf shut me off and I was left heaving a sigh. Mate, words become meaningless for me unless it’s Anne. Only she could make me whole, to be myself again. A word that I have never failed to hear every minute of my existence on this Earth. Yet, it still fails to have even the slightest meaning to my knowledge since my precious Anne was taken away from me. "Tyga, I think you have to let go of the Idea that Aine is Anne before it’s too late. The w
Three days after Tyga and I decided to return back to the Black Cerberus Mountain, Oishin wished for me to talk. I stared at Oishin for quite some time in utter confusion. Why did he want to talk to me so badly? Better yet, why was he talking to me this way? The deal was done. Tyga helped him get his pack back. Well, there was only one way to find out. I was going to have to talk to him against my mate's wishes. I knew if Tyga found out about any of this he would be furious with me and probably kill Oishin.I closed my eyes, took in a deep breath, and then released it."Okay, Oishin, what do you need to talk to me about," I asked, sighing."Come to the lake side so no one sees us," he said. I frowned."I am most certainly not going into the lake with you!" I huffed. Was this man truly ignorant? He must know that we’re done, yet he has the audacity to ask me to step into the woods, which my mate has forbid me from, with him?Oishin sighed and shook his head. "Fine, at least stay her
“A hungry Alpha is a disgrace,” Olivia exclaimed as we were helping the omegas to prepare the food. Although I’m not their Luna anymore, few of them see me as their Luna. “It’s our job as their mates to prepare a delicious meal,” I answered while mixing the marinating sauce that I’ll use later. She groaned and I elbowed her. We were bickering around when Cyan entered the kitchen. “May I speak to you, Aine?” he said, looking at me. “Sure,” I said and walked over to him as I washed my hands. I was about to put the chicken in my mixed marinating sauce when he arrived with a serious face. “You have visitors,” he said. “Who?” I asked him. “I think it might be good if you have to see them rather than asking me,” he said, unsure. “Okay,” I said and I excused myself to Olivia. My wolf’s ears perked up as she sensed my uneasiness. My heart almost sank when I saw my parents talking with Oishin and Tyga. What are they doing here? They have never tried communicating with me for the pa
It was Yuhan. The one who was creating the strange noise was Yuhan. He was the only person I needed to see during times like this, the brother and a friend I wanted to have. “Aine? What are you doing here?” He was worried when he saw me crying. I didn’t have to answer. I just ran towards him and broke down. Understanding what happened, he hugged me back and took the key bringing me and the kids to a place he only knew. I did not need the dull, translucent glow of the moon which was impossible to see from my windowless room to know it was only a few short hours into the next morning.My eyes protested welcoming Yuhan when he abruptly swung the door to my private room wide open.“What do I owe you at this time of night, Yuhan?” I asked, smiling. Yuhan was not pleased with my lacklustre response. He greeted me with a stern, "Rise up Aine. My Alpha wanted to meet you. And he’s not a very patient one."I groaned, rolling to my side to block the distant stream of light coming from the
One year has passed, with the help of the former king’s allied witch, she casted me a potion, a potion that would numb my wolf so that she would never feel any pain and like she had never met her mates. Somehow it did the trick. My wolf was calm now. I was still in the middle of fixing the whole rogue kingdom. And today, I need to fix every group that needed to talk about because they were refusing me as the former King’s heir. "Alpha, are you ready to head out? If we leave now, we should arrive just before midday,” Yuhan insisted on addressing me by my title even though we had known each other. It felt weird having him call me alpha since we were such close friends, not to mention he was like a brother to me."Yeah, let's get this over with," I replied not at all looking forward to what was to come. Phillips was not known for being subtle in the least. Out of the four surrounding groups, I avoided the most. He craved power and did nearly anything to get it.l except that Victor ne
The sound of the alarm clock woke me up. My eyes squinted together, wanting to ignore the incandescent ring of my alarm clock. My arm stretched out to turn it off. I laid in the soft silk emerald sheets that clung to my body, wrapping me in its tight embrace. The peacefulness of my morning enhanced as the sun's warm rays entered my room through the opened bay window shutters.I lifted myself up onto my elbows and took a quick glance around the room to get my bearings.The bed in my room that I absolutely love is a cream-colored four poster, and it's placed in the center of the room. In keeping with the art déco theme of my room, I adorned the floor with a soft sheep-skin rug. The mirrored dresser and bedside cabinets were so clean that they looked brand new, without a speck of dirt or dust. Embellished mirrors on the wall added a touch of elegance and sophistication to the walk-in wardrobe, making any woman envious. As soon as I walked in, I could tell that this wardrobe was differen
My limited edition bag carried me across the Lapis Lazuli Lobby where my office was. The click and clank of my heels echoed across the marble floor. The same prestigious faces graced the lobby. They were always the same. Men in tailored suits, crisp white shirts, polished shoes. Women were in dresses and blazers while their skyscraper heels tapped across the floor.As I walked across the lobby, I could see the human men's eyes filled with lust and the women's sleep with jealousy. I smirked, feeling the need for blood this morning. My small display of humanity in the car made me feel angry and weak. The need to be dominant becomes apparent in my blood. I make my way past security to the elevator. Each morning is the same as I lightly tap my foot, waiting for the elevator to come. No one dares to share an elevator with me unless they were my people and not humans. The ding of the elevator hums in the lobby. The doors swing open as I make my way into the elevator. I check my watch and s
The name that slipped through his mouth was one that I hadn't heard in three years. I could feel my body tensing up as I tried to maintain my composure. Thanks to the walls I had resurrected, I could keep my emotions in check. Camouflaging my disgust at that name that seeped through his lips, I calculated my next words.Thoughts raced through my head. Do I ignore what he said and let the silence consume us until he says something else? Do I scream and shout at him, calling him every name under the sun for not realising I was his mate sooner? Do I curse and spit at him for even letting my name leave that snake of a tongue of his?"Aine?" I ask. My tone was filled with fake confusion. I look at him with a slight tilt to my head."Yes, Aine? Is that you?" He whispered. My heart pounds slightly as my name comes out as a plea."Sorry, who is Aine?" I decided to play stupid. There will never be a time or place for me to have the type of conversation he wants to have especially his betrayal
