I was happy to finally be back home, the kids missed me so much as they hugged me tightly. It seems like Daniel did not tell them about my abduction, which was nice as I know this would have worried them significantly.“Mummy, we missed you so much,” Kira cried in my arms.“We waited all day for you, where do you go?” Keith asked with a serious expression on his face.He also looked a little bit angry which made me chuckle. “I went to see a friend, it got a little bit late so I stayed there” I lied.He stared at me, clearly not buying my lies, Keith was slowly resembling his father.“Come on Kira, let's give mommy some space to rest,” Keith huffed, dragging his sister who was reluctant to leave.But I could not rest, Victor's words were still tormenting me, I could not help replaying what he said to me over and over again.“Does he mean that my blood was the secret to his cure? What was his sickness?” I kept murmuring to myself, biting my nails nervously.I felt numb. Everything was
It's been weeks since Victor was exiled from the pack. I felt free and relieved. For a very long time I have let the actions of others determine my happiness but Victor's betrayal made me see things in a totally different light.I was free. Free to be myself and not live behind the shadows anymore.Ever since the night Dylan and Daniel had rescued me, I noticed tension between them. They seemed to be avoiding each other. I could tell that they wanted to talk to me about something but then they decided not to say anything about it, probably thinking I was too fragile to handle whatever they were dealing with. “Daniel, Dylan” I called, as both men stood in front of me refusing to look at one another. “What is going on? Did you guys have a fight?” I asked, confused about their sudden change in attitude. I thought they were getting along so well, the change felt like a whiplash, it was just too sudden. “Emily, this can’t go on forever. You have to make a choice.” Daniel started, break
The pack had gathered in a circle, with excitement buzzing in the air.The time had finally come, the ceremony was about to begin. I slowly walked down the aisle, my eyes focused on the two magnificent men who awaited my arrival.My heart was racing with joy as everything I have always wanted was finally falling into place. Daniel and Dylan gently took my hand and led me down the remaining step of the aisle. They both stood by my side, representing both my heart and my pillar.Daniel stood to my right, his eyes gentle yet fierce with the love he had for me. His dark hair was neatly styled, but there was a ruggedness to him that only added to his charm.Dylan stood to my left, he had his hair similarly styled like Daniel and their similarities were very striking. The three of us had formed a bond stronger than anyone could have imagined.Kira and Keith, stood just behind us, their small faces filled with joy, their eyes sparkling. The idea of having not just one, but two fathers made
The memories of last night were like a beautiful dream that I didn't want to wake up from. For eighteen years, I had waited to feel chosen, loved, and appreciated by my true mate, and now I finally felt that way. As I relived the moments of joy and romance from the night before, I felt a warm tingling sensation in my heart. I knew that my connection with Daniel was something special, something I would never forget. The moon goddess had brought us together, and I was so grateful for that. I sighed, my thoughts drifting back to the present moment. But no matter how I tried to distract myself, I couldn't stop thinking about Daniel. My mind kept replaying the moments we shared, from the first time we met to our first kiss. It was as if my whole life had been leading up to this moment, and everything before had just been preparation for what was to come.I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts. I knew I needed to focus on the present. As I stood in front of the bathroom mirror, wa
I ran into my room and started packing my things. My head was brimming with a lot of emotions. I didn't like the feeling of dizziness that seemed to be engulfing me. My parents died and left me behind, now the moon goddess just sat still and watched my mate get stolen from me. Somebody walked into my room and my nose immediately told me it was him.I waited for him to say something, but he said nothing and just moved to the chair. He sat across it and looked at me. “Where are you going?” He asked.“Anywhere that isn't here,” I answered coldly. Deep down, I wanted him to tell me it was a prank, and that he was just testing how jealous I could be. I wanted reassurance. But at the same time, from the look on his face, I knew this was no joke. It was real. “Why would you do this to me? Why?” I asked him, tears in my eyes. “I mean, you made love to me just hours ago. You took my virginity and completed the mate bond. I mean, we had something special between us.” I cried out and Daniel
Five years later…“Victor. What are you doing here? I mean it's still so early.” I said, causing him to let out a small smile. “Well, it's not so early to help a friend out, right? I mean, I want to assist you in every way I can. You have a shift at the coffee shop later on, don't you?” He answered, walking into the living room. Keith and Kira were still having breakfast, and I was trying to pack their lunches and get them ready for drop off before heading to the small coffee shop where I worked.“Hi Kids.” Victor greeted and Keith hugged Victor, while Kira looked away and focused on her food. It was no news that Kira didn't seem so comfortable or friendly around anybody, except me.Keith was the striking resemblance of him and Kira also looked like her father in a few ways. Sometimes, I got sentimental, wondering what it would have been like being married to him, and raising the twins with him.But having moved away from the pack, and birthing my babies, I accepted it. Daniel was n
As the Alpha now, there were still many days when I felt inadequate, like I couldn't do anything right. And that wasn't helped by the fact that my arranged mate, Emma, seemed determined to make my life difficult. I had to constantly fight to keep my pack together, and she was always there, making things hard. It was even harder that I had to reminisce every single day about Emily. What I had done to her in the past. All this happening to me now felt like a repercussion.“You filthy maids, why can’t you do anything right?” I heard Emma’s loud voice and let out a deep sigh. What was with her again?I could hear Emma shouting as I left my study, and I knew she was having another one of her tantrums. She was always finding fault with the servants, no matter how hard they worked. It was as if she was determined to make their lives miserable and mine too.Just as I was about to turn and head to where I could hear her voice coming from, one of my gammas ran to me, his eyes wide and pantin
"Enough, Emma!" I said, my voice rising an octave. "This is none of your business. Please just stay out of it."Emma didn't back down, I should have known she wouldn't. Instead, she moved to sit beside me, her eyes fixed on Emily. I could feel the tension in the air, like a coiled spring ready to snap. This was not going to end well."No, I want to hear what's going on," Emma said, her voice low and dangerous. "You can't just expect me to stand by while you talk to someone else about something so important. It's not right."Emily and the rest of her friends watched our bickering and I felt embarrassed and annoyed at this point.Emma shook her head, her eyes flashing with anger. "No, I'm not going to be pushed aside like this. I deserve to know what's going on.""And I deserve to have some privacy," I interjected, my own anger rising. "This is my personal life”Emma opened her mouth again to speak, but I cut her off before she could say a word.“I’ll help out in finding our kids”Emil
