This last couple of days with my mate had been amazing. Our run went well and we spent the entire next day together! We made brownies together and Iโm sure we got more flour over each other and the kitchen then in the actual mix. Letโs just say that the chef wasnโt impressed when she came in to make lunch and found us in that state! I was always the serious brother but now I felt carefree and happy. If this is how Jackson felt when he was running around avoid his duties then I understood, it was an addictive feeling and I wanted more. More fun, more happiness, more to her. Misha. The goddess that owned me and my soul. She was everything and I was nothing, to be in her presence and hear her stunning voice was to be in heaven.If there was ever an embodiment of the moon goddess on earth, she was it. Stunning, brave, powerful, and yet soft and kind. How after all her hardships in life she became this amazing woman I will never know. The strength I refer to isnโt her power, while that is
Jackson sat down behind his desk just as I walked in with flushed cheeks.โBeen running? Or just tripped over thin air and got embarrassed?โ A rumbling laugh fell out of his mouth.โHey!! That only happened once and you swore not to bring it up again!โ I glowered at him and crossed my arm over my chest. โOkay, okay, I surrender!โ He held his hands up, โthen why, my sweet, are you blushing?โโIf you must know, I lay on my bed and then remembered you wanted to chat to us so I rushed to get dressed and get here!โ I lied, I didnโt want them to know I had heard their earlier conversation. โAnyway, whereโs Finn?โ โOh, heโs just getting us some coffee.โ โYou two seem civil again?โ I smiled warmly.โI suppose we are love, I care deeply for him, heโs my blood, my wolf has just been on edge around him because of... well you know why. But it doesnโt mean I wonโt one day get over my wolf and be his brother in the public eye again.โ He smiled back at me with a cheeky gilt in his eyes, god I lov
I was fuming, how could she think so little of herself? How could she believe that we would let her go alone to die? Didnโt she know we loved her?! I was ready to start shouting again when i heard her whisper, โI could have had my revenge, I could have been free, but I canโt have their blood on my hands too. Iโve taken enough lives already. I canโt do that again.โWhat is she on about? She needs to know this is a kill or be killed situation, if she had just let me finish she would have heard my plan! She started to whisper through sobs again, โI canโt become a killer again. I wonโt survive it.โ My heart lurched, my poor mate, sheโs so broken. Who has she had to kill before? โI need you to both sit on the sofa and take a hand each. I need to show you something. Iโm sorry if your opinions of me change, I will take the rejection that I deserve, but first let me show you.โ I started to speak and she pressed a slender finger to my lips, โjust do as I ask, both of you, please?โ The spa
(FLASHBACK CONTINUED...)Just keep running, donโt stop.My aura was rolling off me in waves and I could see fighting it to continue the chance was taking its toll on his warriors, they had started to fall back no matter how hard they were trying to resist. The Alpha roared in anger and pushed himself more. I was too tired to keep up this pace. But he was gaining on me so I kept trying.Just keep running, donโt stop.There, whatโs that noise? I can here a strong whooshing sound... a waterfall!! I ran knowing if I made it I could relax as I fall to the water below, they wouldnโt follow me down a waterfall! Just keep running, donโt stop.My legs were a blazing fire of pain, I was slowing down even though I seemed to be pushing myself harder.Just keep running, donโt stop.My legs felt like they were weighed down with lead. But I was at the edge now, I leapt over the cliff leading to the waterfalls deep drop. I closed my eyes.Pain. Thatโs all I could feel. Pain erupted throughout my b
Jackson and I had been sitting here in his office for a long time. I know one of us should probably have gone after Misha but we were still processing everything that had just happened. She had shared her memories with us, she had been through a lot, she had been responsible for the entire packs death that everyone in the werewolf community was still living in fear of. Everyone thought whatever mystical events had occurred there would soon follow and kill every pack in the blink of an eye. Nobody could ever know it was her, but in a sense I felt safer and better for our pack knowing there isnโt some dangerous force of nature out there killing wolves. But our poor Misha, sheโs lived with that ever since knowing, however unintentional it may have been, that those deaths lay in her hands. At the age of 15, itโs no wonder she kept running even though she could have easily dealt with her mother and her previous Alpha, she hid as a human because of the guilt. โIโm going to go find her,
We had been running for quite some time when Finn slowed to a stop. He shifted behind a tree and came out in shorts hanging low on his waist and pulling shirt over his head. Even in my current mood I couldnโt help but practically drool over his stunning chest shimmering as sweat rolled down where I want my hand to be. When the shirt was over his body I snapped out of my trance and was glad I was in wolf form or he would have seen my list filled eyes and red cheeks. Goddess how did I end up with two such stunning mates? โThe store box is right there, Iโll wait over here.โ He said walking back into the opening. I nodded my head and went to where he just came from.After a few minutes I walked back to him in a knee length white T-shirt, I found a dress but it was far too short for my liking so I went with this. โWhat are we doing?โโI have someone I want you to meet. She lives out here to keep connected with the goddess herself and to stay out of the way of pack distractions.โI couldnโ
Iโm just laying on the sofa with Misha curled up into my side thinking about how much I yearned for this. A mate, a happy life, small moments like this throughout our lives together that mean the world. But I canโt have it, I now know whatโs going to happen but how can I be happy in knowing that? *flashback*โSeer, hello.โโHello Finn, itโs been so long since Iโve seen you. My, my, youโve grown well my boy. How can I help you?โโI have questions I need answering, Iโm sure you already know about the predicament I find myself in with my brother?โโI do, your father came to ask but as I told him, I can only tell what i know to those it directly involves.โ I gave her a curt nod and sat down.โWell I need to know, why did the moon goddess paid us brothers with the same mate?โ She looked at me with sorrow filled eyes. โThis girl, she belongs in the arms of your family. You know how mates work my boy, Jackson is her destined mate, you are her second chance mate as she is yours.โโI donโt u
I know I should have gone after Misha but Finn did, when I heard them get home I want to go see them but they were cuddled up on the sofa watching some tv show. I didnโt want to interrupt that, it hurt seeing them like that but I knew Iโd failed her in that situation, giving into my shock. I left them and went to my office to make sure everything was set up for our trip. Iโll tell them tomorrow, one more night not knowing wonโt hurt them. Itโs now the morning so Iโm making breakfast for all of us to have together and chat about my plan. I hope they agree itโs the best thing for us to do.โMorningโ her angelic voice floated into the kitchen. She was rubbing her sleepy eyes and I knew they had fallen asleep on the sofa and stayed there all night. She was in a crumpled black T-shirt that fell to her knees, they must have been on a run and not changed into their own clothes when they got back. The idea of him holding her in that state of undress was making my wolf growl, but I knew he wo
I froze as the echo of the Alphaโs howl faded, the absence of Jacksonโs voice more palpable than ever. The realization hit me like a sledgehammerโJackson had left, and he was in trouble.The Alpha's eyes met mine, filled with determination and urgency. โWe need to find him. Now.โFinn burst into the room, having heard the howl. โWhatโs going on?โโJacksonโs gone,โ the Alpha said, his voice strained. โWe have to bring him back before itโs too late.โFinnโs face went pale, but he nodded. โIโll gather the pack.โWithin minutes, the entire pack was assembled, ready to track down their future leader. I couldnโt shake the feeling that Jackson was trying to protect us, to fulfill the prophecy alone. But he didnโt have to do this by himself. We were a pack, and we faced everything together.The Alpha led the search, with Finn and me right beside him. Using my connection with Jackson, I guided us through the dense forest. The bond was weak, but I could sense his direction. Every moment felt li
I woke up wrapped up in Finnโs armsโฆFinnโฆmy mate! I rolled to face him, his arms still holding me close, I blushed as I thought of what we did last night. Thatโs when it hit me, oh goddess I was still naked!! I squirmed and tried to get free of his embrace so I could find something to cover my body.โWhere are you trying to run off too little mate?โ Finnโs husky morning voice asked, I blushed more at how his voice made my stomach flip and dirty thoughts clouded my mind.โSorry, I didnโt mean to wake you. I wasโฆ I was just going to get up to find my clothes.โโRunning off while Iโm asleep huh?โ He opened his eyes, โWe are mates now Misha, no need to cover up, in factโฆ Iโd prefer you to be naked in my arms forever.โ He winked as he released me to hover above me and kiss my mark.I couldnโt resist letting the moan leave my lips as my body woke up under his gaze. โIf we donโt stop this I wonโt be any use when we leave. I need my body to be able to function Finn.โ He chuckled deeply as he
I left them in the kitchen, I know they need this time, itโs not fair to stand in their way. This is all they get with each other. I walked to my room and sank to the floor balling my eyes over loosing my brother. Itโs hasnโt happened yet and I already feel robbed. How can I ever be happy again knowing I took the little time together they had away by sticking my nose in? Iโve ruined his one chance at love in the short life heโs been handed. And I call myself his brother? I cried and cried until I fell asleep. I woke up to load banging on my door, it must be night as the room is covered in a blanket of darkness now. Stretching my body out I stood and took in a deep breath as I opened the door to be met with her intoxicating scent.โMisha? What are you doing here?โ I couldnโt help the hope and guilt that was messing with my stomach as I stared at my beautiful second chance.โCan we talk?โ Her voice was so unsure, and dread filled my mindโฆ what if she was going to reject me?โOf course
