last update Last Updated: 2024-12-22 11:25:42

As we danced, I found myself pulling her close to me. The feeling that she might have been jealous of my relationship with Eileen made me happier than I cared to admit and hope flared in my heart.

As our bodies moved in tune to the music, I felt excited. I wanted Iris terribly. My body was reacting violently to our proximity. My wolf, Sly, was trying to break loose. I kept restraining him with a supreme effort.

I was losing the battle and knew I was going to kiss her and damn the consequences, when I saw her eyes following someone. All at once I was jealous of the person that had suddenly claimed her attention and as I followed the direction her eyes were focused on, I saw that it was her companion for the evening. The young Alpha Andrew and I bit my inner lip in indignation. Why did he have to come in now?

Iris may have said, they were very good friends but I had seen the way Andrew looked at her. There was nothing platonic about it at all. I was even surprised that he had left her

    Adrian's POV As soon as we got to the venue of the party, I started to feel that the place was familiar. I tried to think what made the place familiar. Had I been there before or Did anything memorable happen there? But all I could come up with was a blank.We entered the banqueting hall and the feeling of familiarity increased. I couldn't stop myself from looking around, trying to see if there was something that would help explain why I felt familiar with the place.That was when I saw her....Her lovely grey eyes a d fair hair... her beautiful face. I knew I had sed. that face somewhere. It was almost as though I had been dreaming about the face my whole life. I looked at the man with her. Was he her husband or brother? He was handsome and I felt somewhat jealous without knowing the reason for it except that they both looked close and happy. But strangely, I felt like I knew the man as well.Miranda must have felt my interest for she followed my eyes and saw the people I was stari

    Sean's POV I had to agree with Sly. How could I just give up on my mate when we had not even started. I had to fight for her. I went straight from there into the garden but they were not there. My heart started thumping. Where could that asshole Andrew had taken her? And Iris, why would she allow herself to be taken anywhere secret by anyone when I was her mate? Then I got a whiff of her scent, so intoxicating. I shut my eyes and could feel my need for her grow. 'This will not do at all!' I cautioned myself. 'Snap out of it! How can you keep acting like a depraved and sexually starved teenager around her? Get a hold!'I opened my eyes and sniffed, following her scent to a secluded place where not only she and Andrew were, but another couple as well.'Thank goodness!' I breathed, smiling. I thought I had lost her even before I had a chance to be with her. She was not the only beautiful she wolf in this pack or other packs but she was my mate and that made her special and her persona

    Adrian's POV I like Iris. I like her a lot. I was attracted to her as soon as Miranda and I stopped Inyo the banqueting hall and I set my eyes on her. I knew instantly that we had a history. Now I am sure of it, why else would that jerk Sean or whatever his name is be so hostile towards me? He was acting as though I was a threat. It does not take a fortuneteller to know that he likes Iris as well. Why is he do scared I would take her from him? Was Iris and I really that intimate or is he not confident of the strength of their relationship? That blinding flash again, accompanied by an agonizing pull ony head. I tried to make the image that flashed before my mind stay but it was gone just like a flash. But they were becoming clearer. As soon as Andrew admitted to Sean that he would do the honours of helping me recover my memory because he was my brother, my eyes opened wide. Little wonder I felt a kind of kinship with him. I couldn't have been more grateful that I had agreed to

    I had loved my mum, my whole life. I had witnessed her pain as my father showed no consideration whatsoever for her feelings, treated her poorly. On several occasions I had lashed out at my father, but what could I do against his superior strength, I was just a boy then. I loved him too but because of his treatment of mum, I despised him and myself for being happy that he didn't come back alive from the war. I had sworn to avenge my mother, protect her from anybody that wanted to harm her... It was just an irony... a twist of fate that the girl I fell in love with at first sight, happened to be my enemy, my enemy's daughter. I recalled how we imprinted that first day with no care in the world and how happy I had felt. Vowing that I was going to treat my mate better than my father treated my mother. I wasn't going to be my father.... what a laugh, since I ended up being worse. How my father treated my mum, in my estimation was nothing compared to the way I treated Iris. I felt like a

I looked sad. I had been do happy at the birthday party with Iris. I had thought that sunshine had finally come into my life but that was not to be because of a useless enmity between our families and a useless promise I made. Mum was still my mother and I wanted to make her happy. I already made the vow and I could not refute it but I also could not let Iris go. I wanted her by my side. 'I cannot marry Roxy', I started, the next set of words, feeling like they were bring dragged out of me. 'I shall marry Iris!' I insisted. 'So you are going back on your word to avenge me? You love this Iris more than your word as an Alpha and more than the mother who has loved and cared for you, since you were born?' she asked, her hurt tearing my heart apart. I was torn but I had mad my decision. 'Didn't I

    Iris' POV It was really surprising how things turned out. I still believe that Adrian had lost his memory but it was obvious he wasn't faking it. Well, it was no business of mine.'Iris, I am happy you had a great time at the party yesterday', my mum, Luna Millicent said, smiling affectionately at me. 'I am relieved that you have started living again. What is the name of that young man you were with again?' she asked.'Mum, you have started', I said, hedging. 'I was with alot of young men! I don't know the one you are particular about!''If you didn't know the person I am referring to, why are you blushing?'' she asked, raising an eyebrow, playfully at me.'I am blushing because this discussion is ridiculous, Mum!' I said, seriously. 'Speaking and dancing with anyone does not necessarily mean I have accepted to date them or worse marry them!''Your daughter is right, she was with a number of young men yesterday and I even noticed someone with her that I thought I'd never see again!'

    Alpha Andrew's POV I was delighted when Adrian asked about our mother. It could only mean one thing - that he had regained his memory. I was happy about such a welcome development. I had expected the road to his recovery, a long and dreary one but thank goodness it was quick.I recalled the fury that had filled my heart as he asked about Iris. I was hoping memory or not, he would not want to be with her that I might have a bit of a chance but he must still be interested in her for out of all the questions, 'What is my relationship with Iris?' was what he could ask. I suppose it was a fairly reasonable question, I admit to myself now especially for someone who wanted to find out things about himself but at that time I had been blinded by jealousy. The jealousy I had felt since Iris chose him instead of me and feeling history about to repeat itself, I had wanted to stop him coming between Iris and me even if meant getting physical with him.You stay away from her, do you understand?'

    The feeling that Adrian still wanted to try to get back with Iris kept nudging at me. My mind kept trailing off and I had to to keep saying, ' Sorry, what did you say?'I wondered why Adrian was the only person I felt might actually succeed in winning Iris' love. Yes, apart from maybe Sean....Then unbidden again, the scene at the garden with Lyndon flashed through my mind. 'Oh God!' I exclaimed in my mind. 'What is happening to me?' How can I want a fellow man? Here I was trying desperately to dissuade Adrian from pursuing Iris, so that I could have a chance with her because I had felt a slight change in her at the party and knew she was ready for another relationship. But I was at the same time, fantasizing about a man, wanting to get him naked and kiss him silly! This was insanity.Miranda excised herself to go to the restroom. Thank goodness, the way she had been holding on to Adrian was becoming irritating. I nearly told her my brother was not going to evaporate into thin air b

    Iris' POV Having my brother's back was fun. They made me forget all that was bothering me.When they heard from our mother, Luna Millicent that there was someone who was claiming my attention these days, they started teasing and playfully taunting me with it. 'When are we going to see this epitome of male virility that has captured our sister's heart?' Devin my eldest teased.'It is not the way mum presented it', I protested. 'I am just giving it a try. It isn't as though he swept me off my feet!' 'That you have decided to give him a chance is enough for us to know he must be special', Kevin said.'Anyways, we shall be going out on a date next tomorrow, so he should be here to pick me and then you can get acquainted'. I replied, not sure now if I had made the right decision by accepting to go out on a date with Sean. It was not the first but what I had just found out about Andrew was making me sceptical about allowing another man get close to me. If Andrew who I trusted, could keep

    Andrew's POV I feel so sated and happy. Being with Lyndon has really relieved me off the heartbreak I had felt after seeing Iris with Sean. It would seem that Lyndon was actually my mate. I just seem to loose control where he isAt lunch, Adrian's behaviour was strange. What was it now? I think. It couldn't be that he saw me with Lyndon again... Oh goodness! That must be it. I recalled when Lyndon had thought he heard a door closing. Could it be that it had actually been shut by Adrian who saw us like he did the previous time.Lyndon and I had better be very careful. I thought. How could we keep losing control so much so that we forgot to lock the door? What if we are exposed?'Are you scared of being seen with our mate?' Andy asked. The wolf pesters me alot.'No!' I retorted.'So what is it then?' he asked. I recalled what Lyndon himself had asked me after our session together. 'What happens how?'I knew what he was asking. He wanted to know if I was going to acknowledge our mate b

    Iris' POV As I went back to the Moon Ville Pack, I couldn't help thinking about the events of the day. It had started off to relatively well but in my opinion, it ended a disaster.First was Lyndon visiting to ask me what my feelings for Andrew was and I was happy that he had got over his jealousy and they were now friends....Sean on the other hand want things to progress between us to the next level. I had wanted that too but had thought of Andrew who had the right to me for his faithfulness all these years, only to go to him and find out that he had all the while been gay and had not really been faithful at all. But if he was gay, what did he want with me? Had his devotion all these years been a farce, just a way to cover his tracks do that his secret is secured? Had he been playing with my feelings all this while?Humph! I would have thought that he meant it. He is really a great actor. To think that I had wanted to give up Sean to be with Andrew! How stupid I am. I really have t

    Adrian had seen Andrew run in very agitated and had contemplated within himself if he should go and find out what the problem was and comfort him if need be. He was sure it had to do with Iris. He decided against it. 'He is not a baby any longer', he told himself. 'He might be my younger brother but he is a grown man who can tackle his own problems. Moreover, he might want to be alone right now and going to him might escalate the issue'.He stood for a while thinking it over and was just about to go into his room when another very agitated person, though not panting laboriously as Andrew burst in and went straight into Andrew's room.'I take it back', Adrian muttered to himself. 'It wasn't Iris. These two must have had a little lovers' quarrel'. He scoffed and shook his head. 'Iris I am sorry for blaming you for this even before I was able to confirm my suspicions', he said, addressing an absent Iris as though she was present. He smiled as he thought of her and shook his head, walking

    Lyndon ran and when he could not anymore, he instinctively picked a cab, to the Moonlight pack. He felt if there was anywhere Andrew would go back to, it was his pack.Vin Morgan, Andrew's Beta tried stopping him again but one look at Lyndon's face, he paused. Then remembered how his Alpha had asked him to leave him alone with Lyndon and shrugged. 'The both of them are obviously friends and there must be something they are trying to figure out', he thought as he allowed him to run into Andrew's room.'Andrew, I can explain', he said as soon as he burst into the room.'You do not owe me any explanations!' Andrew, who was lying on the bed said. 'If you do not mind, I have to prepare for a meeting with the elders.'It is not what you think!' Lyndon insisted.'It is of no concern to me, what you do, how you spend your leisure or your sexual preferences!' Andrew said and Lyndon was filled with despair.'I told you, I have been a wreck since you kicked me out of your life', he said. 'I cann

    Andrew had come to visit Iris. He wanted to be her first guest but he was shocked to see her walk hand in hand out of the door to an unknown destination. He felt pain and rested his back against a tree to catch his breath. It had seemed like he was suffocating. Had Sean slept in the house? How come he was there as early as this? Andrew wondered.Since they were walking on foot, Andrew decided to follow them at a distance. He knew that he was just giving them reason to cause him more heart ache but he just couldn't resist. He had to know. The way they were holding hands and smiling into each other's eyes made him insanely jealous but he persisted.They got to the stream, oblivious of the fact that they were followed. Their game made Andrew realize that he was very lonely and had been for a very long time. He wished he was the one playing such intimate games with Iris.Then Iris caught Sean from behind, her body pressing into his back, her arms around him and Andrew swore. He shut his

    Sean could see at a glance that Iris was bothered. He could not place a finger on it but he instinctively felt that it was male related. Who was that fool that dared to trouble his woman?'She is not your woman, yet, dude', Max, his wolf cautioned. 'But she will soon be!' he answered confidently.'Well, if that is going to be possible, you have to step up your game because it seems she is already considering another or can't you see how troubled she is?' Max asked.'Iris, are you okay?' he asked, looking at Iris with concern.'Yes, yes, I am fine', she replied. 'How is your day going?' she asked.'Very well, now that I have seen you', he said with a smile. Iris smiled back. 'Hope yours is not going too bad either?''I am great as you can see', she answered. 'You are early today, is there a particular reason for it?' she asked remembering the visitor who just left and his he had left her dumbfounded.'Do I need a reason to visit my mate, my love?' he asked, tipping her face up so he c

    Third Person POVLyndon had never felt as hurt and humiliated as he felt as he left Andrew's pack mansion. 'Why did you have to mate me with someone who does not want me or our kind of Love, Moon Goddess?' he howled in his mind. He clutched his chest. Oh, it was so painful being rejected either verbally or action - wise by one's mate. And in Lyndon's case, Andrew had rejected him in both ways.'I guess that's it', he said to himself. He could feel his wolf writhing in pain. 'Since you do not want to have anything to do with me, since you are ashamed of our relationship, I shall let you go. I hope you find a better mate. But first there is something I have to do!'He went home and all through the night, he could not sleep. He tossed and turned and whenever he thought of Andrew, his heart skipped a beat and then started beating frantically and the accompanying pain was hell.The next day, before he could change his mind, he set out to the Moon Ville Pack. This was the last thing he fel

    Adrian's POV Do you really love Iris the way you would have me believe?' I asked. 'Because if you do, then you might want to take your own advice and leave her be!'Andrew looked at me shocked and angry. His reaction was confusing. It would have been understandable if I had not stumbled on that scene earlier.That was why as we had our dinner, I couldn't help looking at my younger brother and wondering how he became involved with the man I saw him with.Just the other day, he had been angry that I wanted to pursue Iris again and I knew... had been sure that he had loved her from the start. I have always suspected that though brothers and he hadn't complained later, he hadn't totally forgiven me for taking Iris from him and also for mistreating her. I also have not seen him with other girls nor boys for that matter. Could loneliness and frustration be the reason he was now involved with men? But he still seemed interested in Iris but how could he if he was gay?'You are insane!' he ho
