*****Drake's POV****“Do you think it's alright to have her here in the pack, Alpha Drake?” Damson asked, curiously. “Where do you propose then?” I asked. “I think it's better at the pack if you ask me,” Ethan stated. “I thought so too,” Damson added. “I don't want any of you going horny on our mate.”“Huh? What do you mean, going horny? She is ours anyway. I'm sure she's dying to be with us,” Ethan stated. He's the one I'm most worried about. I know just how horny he can be around ladies. I can't imagine how he would behave around our mate.“You do not have to worry, Alpha. As long as she's not wearing a seductive dress, I can assure you that my wolf will be controlled to the maximum.”“Then that's a great relief,” Damson stated. I could tell from the expression of my brothers that they were all excited to see our mate. That's good enough for me. “I'm so happy you have this all planned out, guess all we need to do now is to wait for her arrival.” Damson said.********“Happy bir
*****Keira's POV****I kept gaping in the hall which I was taken to. This place is much too big to be called a hotel. In Fact, I have no idea, it was dark, and so I couldn't see the scenery properly. Just in case it was a hotel, I've never seen or heard of such a hotel, named, “The Raven's Pack hotel” the name of the pack sounds very familiar. But I never knew they named a hotel after it. Could it be that they have a connection with the Alpha? Well, they are quite popular, so I wouldn't be surprised. But then, why can't I recall where I had heard the name of this pack. I guess I will have to do more research when I get home. That wasn't the only thing which was baffling. I have at least come across four men, and damn it when I say they were all fucking handsome. I wish I knew who they were and if they were workers in the hotel. They dressed so nicely, so I could hardly tell if they were workers. The hall was breathtaking as well. The chandeliers looked so shiny and sparkling wine a
*****Keira's POV****“A friend, but why does he keep calling you on your birthday?” Ethan asked and quickly took the phone away from me.”“H…he's my colleague at work,” I answered in a stutter. Shit! Why do I keep stuttering? It's not like I have something going on with Greg. With the way I'm reacting, what if they read meaning to it? Doesn't that mean I'm done for? Maybe they would change their mind about giving me the interview. “Do you perhaps have a date with him?” That voice, I quickly turned my gaze towards the direction where I heard the voice, and it was none other than Drake. I can't believe he's also concerned about my date with Greg. “I don't have a date with him, it's just that we actually stayed a night together in my house before my birthday, and he helped with baking me a cake.”“What?!” That came like thunder striking a tree. I couldn't believe their voice could be that beastly, and to worsen it the three of them exclaimed at once. My heart pounded so fast that I c
***Keira's POV********After much thinking, I decided to face the brothers and tell them what I think about their whole proposal. “Have you made up your mind yet, pretty?” Damson asked. I sucked a good amount of air into my lungs before replying to them. “Yes. Matter of fact, I've made up my mind, but then, I have my conditions,” I said with all determination. “Okay, let's hear it.”“I agree with this, even though it's the most bizarre thing I've ever heard, but then, I'm not sure if I can do it with all of you, I-”“We know exactly where you are driving at, and trust us when we say we've thought about the entire thing,” Damson said. “Keira, we've also decided, and that is, we will let you be with Drake firstly, we are sure you are more familiar with him, even though you mistook us to be him since we all look very much alike.”“What, you mean I am not going to…you know…" I trailed off, not wanting to complete my statement. “For now, it's not like we don't want to have our fair
*****Drake's POV***The moment Keira turned around, the necklace carrying the name of my pack shone brightly on his neck. Not only that, the necklace looked so beautiful on her charming milky skin that I was tempted to touch her at that very moment, but then I tried as much as possible to refrain from doing that which my wolf was seriously urging me to.This isn't right. Why am I feeling this way towards her? My brothers might be head over heels for her, but not me. I mean, I can't be head over heels in love with her now. There's too much at stake at the moment. “Is it beautiful?” I snapped out of my thoughts and took my gaze up at Keira. She seemed to be staring at me intensely, probably waiting for an answer from me.“Uhm, yea. It looks good.” Just then, she smiled, and I swear that I lost my breath for a few minutes. She has the most charming smile I've ever seen. I can't believe how excited I was feeling around her. “Thank you so much. You are the first to get me a gift,” she sa
*****Keira's POV****Shit! I'm so done for, why did I do that? Drake must think I'm too loose for his liking. Why did I even ask why he stopped? It wasn't like I wanted to really have my way with him or something. “I… I'm so sorry, I never meant to-”“Hey, what are you apologizing for?” Drake asked, cutting me off. “I'm the one at fault here, not you. This is your birthday, and even if we wanted to do it, I think there are better ways we could go about it.” “Huh?” I blurted out, confused. I don't think I understand what he is trying to say. “I know I must have gotten you confused. What I'm trying to say is that, we could try, using the…sex toys. I mean, it's our first, and we might both need that to lighten the mood and make it easier for us,” Drake explained. “Oh,” I muttered. This just got worse. He must not have liked me. He must have been trying to act like it was okay kissing me and all that, but the truth was he hated it. I should have known this would be the outcome. I ne
*****DRAKE'S POV****It's been a week ever since the last time I saw Keira, and I couldn't stop thinking about her. I thought about the kisses we had and how she moaned. These were all the feelings I had that made me sleepless for over a week now. I have no idea what to do. A light knock on my door snapped me off my thoughts. I cleared my throat. “Come in,” I firmly said. Ciara walked into the office swiftly. “Alpha boss, I want to inform you that L&P has sent their model for the glass shoes advert,” Ciara reported. “L&P?” I quickly ran through the name of the company in my head, and then I realized that I actually have a contract which I had signed a month ago with them. “Oh, I remember, but why are they sending a model only now?” I asked confusedly. “Alpha boss, I think you must have forgotten, but you were the one who pushed the deal to a month's time.”“What, I did?” I quickly recalled what might have prompted me to postpone, then I realized that it was for my birthday. I w
***Keira's POV****Being alone had never been so difficult until that night after my encounter with Drake. I don't know what happened, but I found myself thinking about Drake more often. I spent more time doing my work just to clear my head from thinking about him, but that was terribly complicated. I couldn't go a day or night without thinking about him. The memories of the kiss we shared lingers in my head, and I have to be honest with myself that I'm dying to get kissed all over again. I was unable to count how many times I had stopped myself from reaching out to him. I was slowly becoming obsessed, and that alone scared me to death. This isn't what I wanted, but ever since my birthday, my feelings for him automatically grew. I stared at my computer blankly, the urge to go Instagram to see what he was up to was killing me, but at the same time, I didn't want to. He wasn't just in my head but in my heart and soul. Everything I do has him in it. I'm scared to death about my feeli
***Keira's POV***“What are you going here? I asked, as so bad, I opened the door. I was still trying to pretend not to care, but then his smile immediately melted my heart that instant. The fact that he was actually innocent in all of this made me melt like ice.“No, no, no, Kendra. You can't fall for him like this,” I cautioned my wolf in my thoughts. “But I want you to fall for me.”I gasped in shock the moment he replied to what I said to my wolf. “Keira, you actually do have a wolf. I'm so happy. Now my wolf can relate to Kendra more. She refused us last night, just like you refused me.”I swallowed hard at his statement. I walked away from the door, and he quickly came in and shut the door. “You should place the tray on the table and leave,” I said with my back against him. I can't face him while rejecting him. “Why don't you look at me and tell me you want me to leave, truly?”Why is he trying to tempt me into saying things I don't want to in front of me? “Keira, I know y
***Drake's POV***Seeing her smile with tears trickling down her face only made me feel terribly guilty. I could clearly see the pain in her eyes. “Do I look like I'm okay to you?”She asked while looking at the three of us with a tear-filled gaze. “You know what, I don't ever want to see your faces in front of me ever again!”With that, she stormed out of the room, leaving us in a total speechless state.”“Brother, what do you think we should do now? She clearly hates us, and I don't think she'll give us another chance to explain things.”“At this point, I think we have to do it differently and not as a team.”“What do you mean, brother?” Ethan asked. “I think the only reason why she doesn't want to listen to us is because she detests all three of us telling her the same thing. I think we'll make progress if each of us approach her differently without dragging anyone into this.”“If that's the case, then I can as well kiss my mate goodbye.”“What do you mean?” I asked Ethan who a
***Keira's POV***“You know what. I don't ever want to see you in front of me ever again!”“Keira, that was all our fault, but that is where it all ended.”“What do you mean?” I asked Ethan who spoke up. “When we noticed you were banished Without our authorization, we went into the woods searching for you.”What does he mean I was banished without his authorization? “We couldn't find you, no matter how badly we searched the woods.”“Of course you can't find me because I was abducted by Arthur!”“Yes. And we found out this happened because Amanda and Elena both joined hands to set you up.”I shook my head. “That's not true. Amanda would never do such a thing to me. I'm sure you're just telling me this to get me to shift the blame from you.”“Keira, please calm down. I know we've wronged you terribly; hence there's nothing we would say now that would change your mind. However, you need to know the whole truth and why we couldn't save you,” Drake explained. “Why don't you show her th
***Keira's POV***As I entertained a conversation with the guests who wanted to know more about me, I couldn't help but take notice of Damson and Ethan, who hovered behind me like bodyguards. What's their problem? I don't see Drake with them. He probably must be having a private conversation with my dad, since dad talked about wanting to speak with him before now. I couldn't help but become curious about what they were talking about. It can't be that their conversation is about me. At this point, I don't care if my cover is blown, the ones to suffer for the backlash isn't me but them. For this reason, I didn't bother to worry about anything. After entertaining all the guests who wanted a conversation with me, I took a deep breath and turned around. They must not have been expecting it, judging from the way they both jolted backwards, startled. “Well, gentlemen, do you also wish to have a conversation with me?” I asked with my hands on my waist.“Yes, we,” they both took quick glan
**Alpha Drake's POV**“My goodness! Brother, did you see what happened just now? Keira actually walked away, pretending not to know us.” Ethan said. “It is to be expected, didn't you think of that?”“I did. But did you see how she was laughing and smiling with that guy?”“You mean, Reynold's beta?”“Isn't he too young to be the Alpha's Beta?” Damson asked. “I don't think he's too young, if that's what you're asking.” The old beta died a long time ago and his son, Dark, replaced him about 8 years ago. So we could say he became beta the moment he turned 18,” I explained to my brothers. “So why was he so close to Keira? It's barely a year since Keira came to the pack. Why is he all over her?”“Keep it down, Ethan. I know you're eager to find everything, but you must understand that our mission is not the beta, but our mate never forgets that.”“I know. But with her present reaction, isn't it obvious that she wants nothing to do with us?”I turned my gaze towards Ethan.“So what do yo
***Keira's POV**When I said the words, a feeling of sadness watched over me. I wouldn't be thinking about the part right now if those three musketeers aren't probably waiting for my return at the dinner table. “Miss Keira, why do you look so sad after saying those words?”“Dark, there are certain things you don't know about me.”“Of course, I don't know you that well. I only know the things you want me to see, you know. And if you'll let me, I wish to know you more, so I can actually understand you.”“You think you can understand me if I decided to tell you?”“But of course. I know you have a sad backstory. You don't need to say. Those times your mom… I'm sorry to bring her up.”“No, it's fine, you can continue with what you're saying.”“Alright. What I'm trying to say is that, those times when your mom abandoned you, it must have been hard to survive on your own. Being a female in the outside world without the protection of a pack must have been very Terrible.”“Yea, you're right.
***Keira's POV***“Well, well, well. Who do we have here if not the celebrant.”Here she goes again. It was better to leave rather than stay here to listen to her banter. Just as I walked past her and headed for the door, she cleared her throat. “You must have thought you've achieved something great since our dad decided to throw you a party. “Not today, Ramona, I'm not in the mood.”“Not in the mood? I think you'll be interested in what I'm about to say to you.”I shut my eyes at this moment. There's no way of getting rid of Ramona once she starts her tantrums. “What is so important that you wish to talk about?” I asked, turning around to face her with my hands folded on my chest.“Oh come on. Don't make it seem like you're actually the one trying to do me a favor by wanting to listen to what I have to say. Matter of fact, I'll be the one doing you a favor with what I'm about to say to you.”“Well, since that's the case, I would really like to hear what you have to say.”“Your dr
***Keira's POV***This was indeed the most beautiful day in my entire existence. I thought I was going to mess things up. I feared I would be looked at with scorn. Even though I might get stoned for being wolf-less once, and associating with them.What was I thinking? Thinking they could do that to me at my party is as good as making myself believe that my dad isn't capable of protecting me. Even though they had such bitterness in their hearts, they wouldn't be able to show it because the Alpha will surely not let them bully me or do anything to hurt me. When I finally got down the stairs, my dad was the first to stretch his hands towards me. I quickly took his hands and he led me down towards the guests. He introduced me to all his friends and business partners. I was over the moon at this moment. I never thought that this would be possible. “Alpha Reynold, indeed you have beautiful daughters I must say. Your eldest daughter is such a beauty. I can't count how many men present gu
**Alpha Drake's POV***Ever since we left the Blue Crystal pack, I've been having the thought that there's something missing which I did not get to see while I was at the pack. No matter how hard I think about it, I just can't wrap my head around what it is, to be honest. I just have the feeling that there's something I'm missing. To make things worse, my brothers also felt the same way. Which was why we all agreed that we must attend the party of Alpha Reynolds's daughter and then use the opportunity to find out what it is we actually missed. When they finally arrived, I was surprised that Damson and Ethan were the first to call me and inform me about the invitation to the Blue crystal pack. We all had the same feeling that there's something we were missing. While on our way to the pack, I couldn't help but wonder what it was. I'll find out what time it is. The last time I went there, I was shocked to see one of my socks members who was banished there. I felt guilty, even thoug
