“The truth was I’m not John’s Mate,” she confessed. “I have a twin sister names Carmela. S-she’s J-Jons’ true mate. I envied her so much because I saw how John loved her and showered her with everything while I got nothing,” she added. Camilla was still crying. Probably she knew what what will happen and she decided to confessed. “I met my mate. He was a rogue and an omega. I don’t like him. I never wanted him. I wanted to have someone like John. So I made a plan. I sought the most powerful witch and made a deal with her. She gave me a two potions.”“Two potions?”“A potion to break a bond and a potion to establish a fake bond,” she replied. “The most strongest one,” she added. “I made Carmela drank it. And since we were so identical, I lured John to drink the other one. When the potions took effect, John rejected Carmela when thier bond was broken. Instead Jonh took me as his mate leaving my twin sister devastated.”“You’re a bitch you know that? You’re like Lesly.”Camilla smiled
After speaking with my wolf, my thoughts were running wild. I could sense that she was impartial to Oishin. I could feel her desperation as much as she tried to hide it. I knew it wasn't solely her fault. It was how she was designed to be. She was built to be loyal to the person she was mated to and furious at the same time because he broke her heart. The bond that ties them couldn't be broken because there was never a rejection. I accepted her nature but there was no way I could accept Oishin that easily as he continues to run this pack into the ground. I understand she was tricked by his fake mother for power and that he was used. It was shameful how he was defending them. If this pack was ever to become what it once was he would have to strip down his pride and ego and accept the truth. After my run in wolf form I went in search for the Alpha of Mistakes. I shook my head and heavily sighed as I entered the pack house and located his office. I took a breath and inhaled deeply fo
“Found her in one of the Elder Porter’s houses. My source confirmed it. Would you like me to set up a meeting? And about Caitlin, we already had her. I’M Waiting for your order.”I smiled when I read Jackson’s message. This man really was true to his words to serve me. “Take her here.” “Understood.”“I’ll meet her first and talk to her,” I said to my parents after reading the message. “You can go.”“Don’t do anything to her Aine,” Father warned me. I just rolled my eyes at him as Oishin dismissed them.After the headache that was created from my parents, his wolf had announced to the pack through the mind link that there would be a pack meeting this evening. Through the weak mark, I could sense his apprehension and his nerves resonating through the house. I could tell that he was worried about how his pack would react to his speech later. His pack has lost the respect he used to have. But he has to man up and receive any criticism that his pack may throw at him. I’ll have Caitlin
“Why am I here, Oishin?” Caitlin asked as she tried to move. “Ain’t it obvious? You are here to judge not only by my packs but yours too,” Oishin growled. “Eh? You and I have nothing to talk about let alone me being judged by everyone. It wasn’t my fault that Kirk knocked you up and took your Alpha title,” she said, smirking. And then she looked at me. “I paid you with my body,” she said, taunting me which she earned with a roll of eyes from me. Oishin’s face became red.“Tell me you weren’t part of this “plan” that my fake mother and brother made? You wanted the “wealth” from us and boy, you were good at spending it. It was a shame you may come from an Alpha family but your pack is so poor. I regret listening to my parents. I should never listen to them.”Caitlin heaved a sigh and smirked. “That’s because you were so blinded by power. You deserve what you have now. And then your brand new former mate came here for what? To help you build your pack again? Oishin, your time is up.
There was this somber feeling that tainted the environment of the pack today. Benji had revealed to me that Osihin had reported himself to the Elders. I was shocked by his actions and I could feel the anticipation boil. I knew that I would be questioned, I knew that my dirty laundry would be aired when I preferred for it to be ignored, like I had been doing for the last years. I couldn't understand his reasoning for reporting himself. It was unheard of and with his cowardly actions I would have never imagined him taking such drastic actions. No one had seen Oishin all morning, he had disappeared into what was left of the forest. I was sitting on one of the chairs on the back of the patio. Fortunately, the company wasn't bad but I could feel and see the tension on their face. Yuhan was sitting in a chair with Benji next to him, his hand tightly wound round his, while Benji made soft circular movements with his thumb. Jean was nestled into Tyler's lap, his head was in the crook of he
"Very well, Alpha Oishin. Could you please explain to the pack how you came to reject your mate, the rightful Luna?" Elder Reece commanded. "It was because I needed someone who was equal to my standing. My family persuaded me to leave her for Caitlin. They said if I wanted to become the Alpha King, I should choose someone that came from the Alpha bloodline. I knew I was wrong and that I was too blind for power. If only I didn’t dream of becoming a King my family would still be complete,” he announced, I saw the guilt fill his eyes. "Very well, could you please let me know how your parents persuaded you?" Elder Roberts questioned. "Aine came from a small pack. They labelled her as a commoner without Alpha blood. They said someone that was commoner shouldn’t become the Luna Queen. And that every pack would respect me if I had someone equal to me. At first I fought hard but eventually I was like the other Alpha who was captured by Caitlin’s body. She used it against me and being a man
“Very well, Miss Reagan. The matter of your sister will be discussed some other time. As for Alpha Oishin. He was proven guilty. He will be coming with us for the punishment. He will be relieved from his Alpha position and duties until final notice. As for now, Miss Reagan, Elder Robert and I decided to pass down the title since you were the former Luna. If you refuse, the pack will be handed to another Alpha. And your son will be losing the pack he will lead. Do you-”“I will handle the pack,” I said. I will not let my pride hinder my son’s birth right. “For the time being.”“Very well. Pack members of Greyhound pack, we hereby appointed Anastacia Reagan to be your Alpha. Is there anyone who’s against it?” asked Elder Robert.No one raised their hands and they all seemed to be okay that I became the Alpha for the time being.The elders left with Oishin leaving us heaving a sigh. Benji shook me and I quickly shook my head in response. "You alright? You seemed to be unwell" He asked
I don't know how long my mother held me but she seemingly restored a part of me that had been broken since I was a pup. I knew I would never be able to forget what she did and what she didn't do but I did forgive her. Out of all my family she was the one who never abused me but it didn't mean her actions hurt any less. My mother pulled me back and looked at me, memorising every crease on my face. It was like she was trying to capture the moment in her mind so she could never forget it. It was a monumental moment for us, I forgave a part of my family. For me, my mother was the only one in my family who had reacted like a parent. Whereas my father was another story, I don't think I could bring myself to forgive him, it's not like he was sorry anyway. My mother let out a huge sigh and her eyes were twinkling with a happiness I hadn't seen in years. I looked at her and gave her a small smile in return. Both of our eyes were red rimmed from crying, our cheeks were wet from the tears. "M
Five years later…"Mom, please don't feed Zero so much candy, you're not the one tucking him in tonight." I told my mom in a plea, she was feeding my youngest with candy all day long and I couldn't deal with one and yet almost like three fits tonight when Zero doesn’t sleep. My mom looked sheepishly."Sorry honey, you know it comes from a place of love." She left Zero's room, leaving me in here with my son who was all dirty with chocolate. Zero was still five but he was too tall for his age. Chea was already thirteen and Eion already in his age of studying to take over the throne. "Chea, sweetheart, can you please clean Zero’s face? I’ll go and get your dad, dinner's almost ready and I need to supervise the setting of the table before the guests arrive." "Sure thing mom,” she answered as she grabbed some wipes and cleaned her brother’s hands and mouth, leaving Zero’s room as cheerful as always.“I’m going to look after Zero, Mom,” Eion said as he entered Zero's room. He swept his
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
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
“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
According to Charlotte, Higan started her mission to restore the kingdom. It wasn’t even a month when she mysteriously appeared with Charlotte. And since that day, conflict between Elders and the Alphas started to become apparent. Everyone wanted to proclaim Oishin as the rightful king but the Elders denied it. Wars from every part of Tempest ignited between those against the councils and against the establishment of the old Monarchy. When Higan threatened the Elders with what she collected to Ezekiel, that was the last straw before the Elders fully gave up their position. Whatever the masked woman did, it's anybody's guess. According to Charlotte, Higan or the mask woman was someone who had been bringing justice to the werewolves. She also had been betrayed and when I asked Charlotte about it, she would only smile and said Higan doesn’t want to talk about her past life. “Penny for your thoughts?” Oishin said, placing an arm across my waist, holding me .I glazed sideways at him
I shifted mid-air as I was running towards my mate. Everyone must have seen the panic and impatience, almost desperation in my face as I was struggling to run towards him. It didn’t bother me even if some wolves were snapping towards me. My action was enough to tell them how much I loved my mate.Ezekiel kicked Oishin’s wolf and laughed. “Let her be. Let her reunite with his dying mate,” he said, laughing.I invested so many years in my life hating my mate, I wouldn’t let him go, heck.let alone him die. I need him. My children needed him. I want us as a whole family. And now my mate's in danger.I shifted back to my human form and lifted Oishin’s head. My eyes immediately went to Oishin, to check his pulse and breathe. His wounds were still bleeding and it hadn't healed much, making me worry."Shin..." I whispered, my eyes already filling with tears as with shaky hands, I started checking his pulse. I tried it on his wrist and when I felt nothing, I panicked even more. My heartbeat
Aine’s Point of ViewA hand on the shoulder that's exactly from where everything starts. Like in a horror movie, a murder story, but apparently, and rather ironically, I felt like it was where my life would start to end.I couldn't see my face but I am quite certain that all the blood would have drained from there. All sorts of negative thoughts came into my mind. This was too good to be true. I should have known.But then I reminded myself of the promise I had made to myself and I told my heart that I would not drain my energy by worrying. Instead, I'll drain it all out in fighting.Fight for myself. Not for anyone else this time. It's just me now, the real fight for my life. Taking a deep breath, I curled my fists, ready to attack as I turned around to see the very flustered face of our very own Patricia and a woman beside her wearing a face mask. Only her eyes were visible, an eyes that I never expected to witness. Her right eye was turquoise blue. It was glowing even though I kn
(Spit POV’s)Aine’s Point of ViewWhen I first met Oishin as a mate, I was so happy, I felt like my fairytale had finally come to a beautiful end. But I was so wrong.I was so wrong because I didn't realise that it wasn't the end of a beautiful fairy tale, but the beginning of a harsh reality. He cheated on me.And then there was Tyga, I thought he was perfect but then I was wrong. He was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. And my reality became harsher than it could be. Fate must have been fun playing on me. Maybe it was because of the fact that I survived despite what fate threw at me and that I refused to give up and became mindless feral.Way back when I was younger, I have always wished for a knight in shining armour, the one that’ll be able to save me. To me, all mates were like everyone, sweet and loving. Yeah I used to believe that when I was a kid. But then life happened and the truth slapped me in the face so hard that I couldn't get back up. I kept falling. I fell, again, hoping
Tyga didn't let me finish my sentence and grabbed my jaw, again. His eyes burning with craze and determination. "I'm not listening to your bullshit, I will never believe you since Victor succeeded in transferring you the leadership! This has cleared all doubts. If he can, then you can! Pass it to me and I will set you free. Think about it. No pain. No struggles.”One thing that I understood from what he said was that he was lying. This bastard was one hell of a liar. I was starting to think that fate was dysfunctional since they gave me this idiot mate. Thankfully Anne interfered and I got back with Oishin. I laughed so hard that I clenched my stomach and his face turned a deep shade of red in humiliation.“Don’t you ever understand the word fuck off and no?”Tyga lifted his fist in the air and punched me in the face making my jaw snap and my cheeks rammed into my teeth, making them bleed.Fuck!I cupped my cheek and spit out the blood. My jaw and cheeks throbbed in pain and my head
