The Lycan's Mate 01. Summer Heartbreak
[Rachel's POV] I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock blaring in my ear. Another day at high school. I dragged myself out of bed and got ready, feeling a mix of excitement and nerves as I thought about seeing him again. The one who had occupied my thoughts for years, my high school crush. His name was Ryan, and I had been infatuated with him since freshman year. He was tall and athletic, with dark hair and piercing blue eyes that could make my heart skip a beat. Ryan was the school's heartthrob, captain of the football team, and every girl's dream. But, despite all the attention he received, he was humble and kind. Our relationship started as nothing more than a schoolgirl crush. We would exchange glances in class, sit together at lunch, and share stories about our lives. We even worked on a science project together, spending hours in the school's laboratory, getting to know each other better. Over the years, our puppy love grew stronger, and we became inseparable. We shared our

[Rachel's POV] Graduation day had finally arrived, and I couldn't believe that my high school journey was coming to an end. As I walked towards the school auditorium, I felt a sense of excitement and trepidation. It was the end of one chapter of my life and the beginning of another. As I looked around the auditorium, I couldn't help but notice the smiling faces of my classmates. It was a bittersweet moment, knowing that we would all be going our separate ways, but I was determined to focus on the future and the possibilities that lay ahead. After graduation, I threw myself into my passion for photography. I traveled to different parts of the world, capturing the beauty of nature through my lens. It was an exhilarating experience, and I felt like I was living my dream. However, as time went by, I realized that things were not as easy as I had thought. Photography was a competitive industry, and I found it challenging to get my work noticed. There were times when I felt like giving up

[Gabriel POV] Of course, after the fight with my pack and some stray lycans at the park, we all got text messages that there would be a meeting. I was quite uncomfortable about it because I knew that I had abandoned my pack earlier that day, and it wasn't something that my fellow lycans would keep away from our leader. My mind was racing with thoughts of what they might do to me when I arrived, but I couldn't shake the image of Rachel from my head. As I rode my bike to the meeting place, my nerves were on edge. I knew that I was taking a risk by coming here, but I couldn't stay away. When I arrived at the woods, I saw that there were already a few lycans gathered around the clearing. They all looked up as I approached, and I could see the disapproval in their eyes. The woods were a beautiful and peaceful place, but they held a lot of history for our kind. This was where our ancestors had gathered for generations, but it wasn't always like this. There used to be a cave where we would

RACHEL'S POV: After our pack meeting had come to an end, I couldn't stop thinking about Gabriel. He was different from the rest of the male humans I've met, and I just wanted to know more about him. I had tried to reach out to him before our meeting commenced, but he never answered my calls or texts. I was bored that evening and just needed someone to talk to. I decided to give it one more try and dialed his number. Just like before, he didn't pick up, which only made me more determined to get through to him. I called again and again until he finally answered. GABRIEL POV: I looked at my phone and saw that the Rachel was calling me. I knew I had avoid her and couldn't bear the risk of involving her in my pack's rivalry but she kept calling repeatedly, and I couldn't take it anymore. I tried to switch off my phone, but I picked up the call by accident. I was so nervous, keeping mute for about 30 seconds. "Hello?" I said, trying to sound distant. "Hey, it's me," she replied, her vo

[Rachel's POV] We burst into laughter together, finding the situation quite amusing. Although I had numerous questions swirling in my mind, such as "Why were you avoiding me?" I decided not to spoil the lighthearted moment. It was a welcome relief, the tension caused by his avoidance dissipating like mist in the morning sun. The irony of our situation struck me, as our lives had unknowingly intertwined. "You... you had no clue, did you?" he managed to say amidst his laughter. Chuckling, I replied, "None whatsoever! I simply assumed you were a coffee enthusiast and had a talent for avoiding me." Gabriel shook his head and apologized, "I'm sorry for not revealing my true identity earlier. I wanted to see if you would figure it out on your own." "Well, I did recognize your voice," I responded, "but today hasn't exactly been the friendliest day." We both shared a smile, yet my curiosity about his persistent avoidance of my calls grew stronger. "Anyway," I continued, "why have you bee

[Gabriel's POV] I stepped outside, fatigue momentarily forgotten as a cold wind brushed against my face. My eyes landed on the man who had previously threatened me, standing a few paces away, his intense gaze fixed on me. "What do you want?" I asked, my voice weary yet defiant. He grinned sinisterly, his eyes filled with malice and anticipation. "I have a task for you, Gabriel," he sneered, his voice dripping with menace. My heart sank. I knew this wouldn't be a simple errand. I prepared myself for the revelation of the dirty work that awaited me. "I need you to eliminate a threat," he said, his words carrying a heavy weight on my shoulders. Confusion furrowed my brow as I tried to comprehend the magnitude of the task. "Who is the threat?" I cautiously inquired, already fearing the answer. His gaze bore into mine, his voice low and chilling. "His name is Marcus. He's a rogue werewolf, a danger to our pack. He holds secrets that could unravel everything we've worked for." My hea

[Rachel's POV] I was thrilled as my dear friend Sarah arrived at my family's fancy mansion. We hugged and laughed as we entered, finding comfort in familiar surroundings. The grand ceilings, fancy chandeliers, and elegant decor spoke of luxury and richness. It was surprising to see her so early in the morning, and I couldn't help but wonder why she had come. Sarah knew my parents well since she was part of our group, so she quickly asked to meet them. I happily took her to them, and they warmly greeted her. My mom embraced her before leaving us alone. Sarah was always my closest friend, but she didn't visit the mansion often, so it felt special to have her here. Over cups of hot tea, we caught up on each other's lives. Sarah shared stories of her recent travels, and as we talked, her eyes sparkled with excitement. "Rachel, you won't believe what I found out," Sarah said, her voice full of curiosity. "There's a secret network of werewolf communities." Intrigued, I leaned in. "Werew

[Rachel's POV] Gabriel called a cab for us, and as he touched me, I felt a tingle of excitement. I sat in the backseat, holding his hand tightly. His touch was warm and comforting, making me want to be close to him and understand the mysteries in his eyes. During the cab ride, I felt a mix of excitement and curiosity. I looked at Gabriel, who seemed calm but determined. I didn't know where he was taking me, unaware of his world of lycans and the secrets that filled their lives. When the cab stopped, my heart raced as I saw the sign for the jazz club called Harmony Haven. I got out of the cab and saw the dimly lit entrance, with the sound of saxophones in the air. Gabriel held my hand tightly, leading me inside where a magical world awaited us. The moment we stepped into the club, I fell in love with the cozy atmosphere. The soft candlelight created a warm glow over the small tables. The beautiful music surrounded us, making my heart beat in rhythm with it, as if it was telling me s

The Lycan's Mate 39. New Dawn
[Gabriel's POV]The weight of my new role as alpha pressed heavily on me, a mix of uncertainty and an odd sense of acceptance swirling within. My fingers involuntarily tangled in my hair as I muttered to myself, questioning my own actions. What had I done? I hadn't sought this title, yet there was an undeniable allure to it that I couldn't ignore.With a deep breath, I approached the gathered pack members, their hushed murmurs and whispered conversations dying down as I cleared my throat. Their expectant faces turned toward me, waiting for words that I wasn't entirely sure of myself. Gathering my thoughts, I began to speak."Today has been a long day," I started, my voice resonating with a mix of exhaustion and determination. "But with your support, we've taken down Jake, the one responsible for Marcus' disappearance and betrayal." I could feel their eyes on me, their attention unwavering. "However," I continued, "we can't let emotions dictate our actions."I paused, the weight of my
The Lycan's Mate 38. Alpha
[Gabriel's POV]Amidst the gathering dusk, the tension crackled in the air as accusations flew. Jake's voice rang out, venom dripping from his words as he accused me of being a traitor. His words struck like daggers, and I knew I had to defend myself."I'm not a traitor," I retorted, my voice unwavering despite the chaos that was unraveling around us. The gathered pack members watched, divided between curiosity and apprehension.The argument escalated rapidly, the anger between us igniting like a wildfire. Jake's face contorted with rage as he lunged, his transformation into his wolf form both intimidating and terrifying. I braced myself as his powerful blow sent me hurtling into the air, my instincts kicking in to right myself before I landed.In an instant, my own wolf took over, and I met Jake's ferocity with equal force. Our bodies clashed, fur and muscle colliding as we fought tooth and nail. It was a battle of strength, strategy, and a desperate drive to prove my innocence.The
The Lycan's Mate 37. After Rejection
[Lowell's POV]Some of the pack members exchanged wary glances, unsure of what to make of the situation. Gabriel's ability to elude them raised doubts about Jake's leadership."You're a traitor!" Jake roared, pointing an accusing finger at Gabriel. "You betrayed us!"Gabriel's expression turned serious, and he spoke with conviction, "I'm not a traitor. I never did anything he must have told you," referring to the crowd who stood still in awe.Jake scoffed, refusing to believe Gabriel's words. "You're a cunning liar! You were the last one seen with him!"Gabriel's eyes flashed with frustration, but he maintained his composure. He turned towards the gathering, his voice charged with anticipation. "You're all itching to uncover the mystery of Marcus, aren't you?" He gestured dramatically, his finger pointing directly at Jake, whose anger had erupted like a tempest. "Then ask him." The clenching of his trembling hands, stark against his furious demeanor, gave insight into the turmoil he c
The Lycan's Mate 36. The Search
[Gabriel's POV]When Jake first mentioned that we might have to wait until nightfall if his spies failed to locate Gabriel, I didn't take it seriously until now. It had been more than three hours since we gathered in this hideout, and the sun's relentless rays were beating down on us. I occasionally glanced around at the tired and yawning members, including myself, who were growing more restless by the minute. Diana had been keeping me company, but even her presence couldn't distract me from the rumbling in my stomach.As the sun rose higher in the sky, the hunger became more pronounced, and I knew I couldn't wait until noon, my usual breakfast time. Nathan, one of our pack members, finally approached the group, with a pen and a book, asking if anyone was hungry and collecting money to buy lunch. I considered giving him my last five dollars, but then I realized it was my only transport fare, and I couldn't risk being stranded after the meeting. I tried to play it cool, hoping Nathan w
The Lycan's Mate 35. The Meeting Room
The pressure in the meeting room was suffocating as Nathan and his group collected everyone's cellphones, searching for any hidden devices and dealing harshly with those who attempted to conceal theirs. The fear and tension were palpable as we all knew Jake could be ruthless. They were thorough, even breaking the noses of those who tried to hide their phones. I felt a pang of fear and anxiety as they came closer to me, but I had to remain calm and collected.Once all the cellphones were confiscated, Jake addressed the pack again, his voice filled with authority and threat. He mocked those who had tried to hide their phones, questioning their next move. "Was it to call the human police as if they stood a chance against werewolves? Or was it to call Gabriel, the traitor they were all after?"My heart pounded in my chest as Jake mentioned the consequences of Gabriel fleeing before being caught. If that happened, he would assume there was a spy amongst us and go through every member's cel
The Lycan's Mate 34. For Loyalty, Not Belief
[Lowell's POV]Waking up early the next day, I began going about my chores, trying to clear my mind from the anxiety that lingered. Gabriel had returned to the city, and I couldn't help but wonder what changes he might have made to the plan. As I was lost in my thoughts, my phone beeped, and I saw a message from Alpha Jake. It sent shivers down my spine as it mentioned an urgent meeting at 10. The coincidence was too unsettling.Without wasting any time, I dialed Gabriel's number and called him, my heart pounding in my chest. I quickly relayed the message about the meeting and my apprehension about the timing. Gabriel's calm voice came through the phone, and he informed me that Lewis had already informed him about it. He asked me to head to the meeting and give him feedback on whatever announcement Jake made.Arriving at the Silver Crescent Inn, I found myself there ten minutes ahead of schedule, just like before. However, this time, neither Jake nor Marcus's mate had arrived yet. The
The Lycan's Mate 33. Shattered Expectations II
[Rachel's POV]As I finished my evening sprint around the large compound, my mind was still filled with a whirlwind of emotions. Gabriel's call earlier had left me feeling lost and confused. I couldn't fully comprehend the situation among his pack, and I desperately needed his explanations. Trying to push aside troubling thoughts, I focused on my exercise, something common among pack members but not usually done in the evening like I was doing. I was determined to distract myself from the turmoil in my heart.As I jumped over one of the roadblocks that were set up for pack members' races, my ankle landed awkwardly, causing a sharp pain. I whispered to myself, "Not again," knowing that I had dislocated it. Sarah, my friend and confidant, ran up to me with concern evident in her eyes. She had been recording my jumps over the roadblocks, and now she was more worried about my well-being. I tried to stand up and walk normally, pretending that I was okay, but it was clear I needed help.We
The Lycan's Mate 32. Shattered Expectations
The clock was ticking towards the night, and the sky looked like the full moon would be out tonight as I hurriedly made my way to the clothing store. I needed to find the perfect birthday present for Rachel. I could vividly recall Rachel gazing at a garment as we strolled together before Jake and his troubles came into our lives. The store was called "Enchanted Wardrobe," and it was known for its exquisite collection of dresses and elegant attires.As I stepped inside, the air was filled with the aroma of fresh fabrics. My heart pounded with excitement and nervousness as I scanned the racks of beautiful dresses. I recalled Rachel staring at one dress on our previous visit, and I thought that would be the perfect choice. But as I looked around, I found myself surrounded by numerous stunning dresses, each vying for my attention.Confused, I decided to seek help from the seller. "Excuse me," I called out to a friendly-looking woman behind the counter. "My girlfriend loved one of the dres

[Gabriel's POV]As I stepped off the bus and returned to the city, my heart pounded with a mix of excitement and anxiety. I knew I needed to be cautious, as the plan with Lowell and Lewis required precise timing, but the worry for Rachel's safety weighed heavily on my mind. I hailed a cab and instructed the driver to drop me off a fair distance away from my apartment, fearing that Jake's accomplices might be lurking nearby, waiting for any sign of me.As I approached my apartment building, I closed my eyes and focused on my senses, trying to detect any presence of fellow lycans. Thankfully, there were none, so I proceeded cautiously, not wanting to take any chances. However, when I reached my apartment door, I noticed that the handle had been tampered with, a clear sign that someone had broken in.My heart raced as I entered my once neat and organized apartment, now a chaotic mess. Expensive belongings were scattered around, and my clothes lay in disarray inside the wardrobe. I search
