RHEA There was silence at first. An eery silence that made shivers run down my spine, goosebumps appearing on my skin. Then, I heard it. The ear piercing cry of the rogue wolf. A howl of pain. I opened my eyes, my gaze resting on Jaden's large wolf which had pinned the other wolf to the ground, effortlessly. What was scary about this, was that the rogue wouldn't stop howling, despite the fact that Jaden wasn't even putting so much pressure on him. I didn't feel sorry for him, you see. He had tried to kill me. 'The only reason why I'm not ripping him apart yet, is because I don't want you to feel bad. But, I'm going to knock him out' Jaden told me. I sighed, turning away from them. 'Sure. What else are you going to do with him? He's a rogue who trespassed into your grounds' I said.'Darryl and Klaus will interrogate him' he said and moved towards me. The rogue wolf was lying on the ground knocked out. He suddenly shifted into human form and on the floor lay a pale teenager wh
RHEA Rain poured down heavily, lightning struck and the sound of the howling wind echoed into the night. I stared at the ceiling, a frown creasing my brows when I saw that the ceiling was different from the one I was starting to get accustomed to. I sat up slowly, taking in the sight of the room. The room was much smaller, and I realized that I was lying on a relatively small mattress. Sitting on the night stand was a photo of a couple embracing. I took a closer look at the photo my eyes widening when I recognized them. It was a photo of a younger Jaden and...Sheila? My eyes widened further. I rose to my feet and walked towards the full length mirror in the corner of the room, letting out a bewildered gasp when I saw my reflection.Staring back at me was a pair of green eyes which I knew belonged to Sheila. I pulled at the blonde hair on my head, trying not to panic."What's going on? Why do I look like this?" I thought aloud, patting my cheeks. "Jaden doesn't see you, bitc
RHEA Words couldn't entirely describe what I was feeling. I stared at her and she did the same. She looked just like me. It felt as though I was looking at my own reflection. Her hair had streaks of purple and she definitely had a similar fashion sense. Her lips were coated with bright red lipstick just like mine was, at the moment. She was wearing a skin-tight red dress and she rocked thigh highs as well as I did. Seconds bound by and all we did was stare. Jaden was at a loss for words, his gaze kept fleeting from my look alike to me. And just like that, I went down memory lane, recalling what I'd seen in my second vision. Jaden had been right. There was no other way to explain this.The woman standing in front of me was my twin. I didn't think it was a coincidence. Something was definitely up. Something really unusual. Klaus broke the rigid silence first. "Alpha Jaden, this is Alpha Thalia. Behind her is Corey, her Beta and Alan, her Gamma"Jaden robotically held out a hand to
RHEA Slowly, I opened my eyes with a groan. The bed I was lying on, was much more comfier and larger than the bed I'd been using since I arrived at the pack house. I slowly took in the sight of the large bedroom. The digital clock on the nightstand read 09:20pm.Judging from the interior designs and the dark colored curtains, I knew that I was in Jaden's bedroom. Besides, his scent was everywhere. I drew in a long breath, his scent flooding my senses in a pleasant way. My wolf growled with satisfaction and I closed my eyes. I heard a door creak open and I also heard someone open the drawers. I didn't want to open my eyes just yet. I wanted to remain in his bed until noon, the next day. "I know you're awake, Rhea" he said, his husky voice making my heart thrum with excitement. "Do I have to carry you out of my bed and drop you on the floor?" He asked and I let out a huff of annoyance, kicking my legs into the air as I threw a little tantrum. I cracked an eye open, my cheeks h
JADEN "The king wants to have a private discussion with you? That's new" Klaus said. I sighed and peered at my wristwatch. It was still quite early. "I'll be leaving now" I said and he nodded. Rhea's gaze met mine, an intense look in her eyes. 'Going somewhere?' She said telepathically. 'Yes. The Alpha King wants to have a private chat with me. I don't know what this is about' I told her. She walked towards me and when she finally got to me, she gave me a kiss on the cheek. "Good luck" I smiled at her. "Take care of the pack, Luna" I told her and she grinned."Aye, aye, captain"Klaus escorted me to the gates, I got into my car and drove off. On getting to the king's palace, I was taken to the king's personal chamber. "You asked for my presence" I said and he nodded in agreement, a blank look on his face. If I had to guess what was going on? I would guess wrongly over and over again. "Yesterday, your brother was here" he began, his brows furrowed slightly. "What does
JADEN Zaden's smirk faded and his eyes darkened. He'd clearly underestimated me. "The first round is probably going to be the easiest" the king stated, an amused look on his face."Two contestants will face each other in their wolf forms. The first wolf whose back hits the ground, loses" the royal Beta announced. Klaus snorted from his position on my left."It's definitely a piece of cake for you and Tarus" he commented. He wasn't being overconfident, he knew what Tarus was capable of."The contestants will compete in this order: Alpha Jared and Alpha Dylan, Alpha Vincent and Alpha Zaden, Alpha Thalia and Alpha Finn.."'The tournament is for the next king... she's not supposed to be here' Darryl pointed out through the mind link. I sighed, wondering what Alpha Thalia was up to now.'This is a tournament for Alphas. She's an Alpha, you can't deny or change that' Klaus said.I watched her as she stood beside her opponent, Alpha Finn. He was huge, approximately three times her siz
RHEA Trisha went down on her knees and I stared at her bewildered. Was she being sincere? Or was this a trick? She'd just acknowledged me as Luna. I took a long breath and exhaled slowly. "Fine, I forgive you. We're all good, now" I said. She rose to her feet and embraced me. I wondered if she was happy or if her face had just been twisted into an unpleasant scowl because I couldn't see her. When we pulled away, there was a smile on her face. "Thank you so much, Rhea" she said and I forced out a smile. Jaden's scent wafted into my nostrils and my smile widened. "Looks like Jaden is back" Trisha commented. I stepped out from the back of the main building and went towards the gates to welcome my mate. The moment he saw me, his eyes twinkled. He approached me, not taking his eyes off me. "Here you are" he said and kissed me. Our pack members cheered and my cheeks burned. I followed him to his quarters, his arm still secured around my waist. "So, how was it?" I asked and he shru
JADEN She was beautiful even as a wolf. Her fur was the color of snow, bright and unrivaled. She was larger than Thalia's wolf and her aura was stronger. Her blue and green eyes complemented her beauty. I felt so lucky to have her as my mate. Mine.She approached me, her movements slow and graceful. She paused in front of me and curled up around me. No words were spoken. We were content, at peace.After a while, we both shifted back into our human forms and slipped on our clothes. We silently made our way back to the pack house, our fingers entwined. I had finally moved on from Sheila and I hoped she'd moved on too...."I want to come with you" Rhea said to me two days later. She had resumed her duties as the Luna. The pack members were quickly warming up to her. They were coming to see her most of the time.I raised a brow at her. "You want to go to the tournament with me?" I asked."Yes. I have a feeling that someone is going to try to mess things up. It's what my instinct
Hey, guys. This book was originally planned to be book one and two combined. However, due to personal reasons, I'm presently unable to write book two. It might take a while before I can upload more chapters. This means that book two will be uploaded next year. Consider the released chapters as sneak peeks. Thanks for your understanding. I apologize to those who have been kept on suspense and have been looking forward to the rest of the chapters. Please, note that this is not the end. Hopefully, I'll be able to complete the book by next year. Have a great day!
JAZMINE It was him, Oliver's twin. He stared at me like he'd just been told that the world was about to end. I wondered why."Hey, what's up? I believe we've met before" I said, holding out a hand for a handshake. He blinked at me, still looking dazed. "Hello?" I said, waving my hand in front of his face. "Right. Nice to see you again... Jazmine" he said, finally accepting my handshake. He had a smile on his face. But, it didn't reach his eyes. I was more curious at this point. "You never said anything about having a twin brother, Oliver. Where have you been hiding him all this time?" I asked."We got separated at some point" Oliver replied, giving me a nervous smile. "You two look so alike. It's almost impossible to differentiate you two" "Almost impossible? You can differentiate us, can't you?" I leaned closer to the twins, squinting my eyes to get a clearer look at them. I gasped at the sight of Xavier's eyes. His eyes were changing every few seconds. They were alternating
XAVIER No matter the angle I tried to look at it, I still couldn't understand why my mate had rejected me. Nothing seemed to be adding up. I was completely clueless. I wasn't unattractive, I knew that. Unless she had something against attractive people, it didn't make sense that she would reject me just like that. Come to think of it, she had asked for my name too. Was she harbouring a vendetta towards people bearing 'Xavier'? Or, was it my last name instead? "I wonder what's going on in your head, you look like you're suffering from a heartbreak" My sister's voice snapped me out of my train of thoughts. She placed a plate of cookies in front of me and sat down on a chair opposite me. I watched her as she picked a cookie and took a bite out of it. "Wow, you really look like you've just been rejected" she stated, looking amused. When I still didn't say anything, her smile faded. "No way. Did a girl reject you?" She breathed, her eyes wide. "For real?!" Oliver exclaimed as he w
JAZMINE 'Who the hell does the bastard think he is?' I thought. This wasn't the first time I was having an encounter with a pervert. I had heard his thoughts as clear as day. It was an ability of mine. The annoying part was that he had claimed to be my mate and when I'd touched him to confirm it, I didn't feel a thing! His scent was weird too. Was it blocked? I couldn't tell. I hoped that we would never cross paths again, because if we did, I would make sure to embarrass him. During lunch break, my best friend and I, stood by our lockers, returning our books to their positions. "You look upset. Did you encounter another pervert?" Sage, my best friend said as she slammed her locker shut. "As a matter of fact, I did." She wrinkled her nose in disgust. "Let me guess, he kept staring at you and tried to touch you?" "Not like that. He was staring at me and then, he claimed that I was his mate.""What? The nerve of him!""He didn't say it out loud though" I said and she sighed. "
XAVIER "Will I be okay, here?" my voice cracked at the end of my statement, a lump lodging itself in my throat. "Look at me, Xavi" mum said, taking my hands in hers. Blinking back the moisture in my eyes, I turned to look at my mum, my brows creased. I was feeling emotional. This was happening a lot, lately. My emotions seemed to be heightened and so did my mood swings. "Just breathe and try to hope for the best. You'll do just fine. I believe in you. Your siblings will be here with you this time. It's going to be easier for you, I promise" mum said to me with hopeful eyes. "I love you, mum. I'll see you later" I smiled, leaning over to give her a kiss on the cheek. "Please, be alright" I heard mum say as she watched me get out of the car. I knew she was always worried about me. So, I decided that I was going to try not to get expelled again.I walked down the hallway, my nostrils already identifying the different scents of the students. The school was for all supernaturals.
XAVIER Pain shot through my whole body when I tried to move. I could feel myself bleeding from all the open wounds on my body. "Fuck" I muttered, as I uncoiled my body and pushed up against the wall of the alley where I'd just been nearly stoned to death. My schoolmates had just tried to kill me because I'd gotten into a fight with the school's beloved, several hours ago. It really wasn't my fault. Jonathon had pushed me to the wall. He had made Zeres upset, what was I supposed to do? I admit that I'd beaten him up, badly. But, I'd apologized, gone through detention and was expelled. I knew they hated me because they were afraid of me. But, it didn't justify the fact that they had attacked me so viciously. I could have fought back. But, there had been so many of them. I had feared that I would commit mass murder if I'd decided to fight back and defend myself. Besides, the red and black pearl bracelet sitting around my right wrist was keeping a leash on my wolf and my will to fig

RHEAI watched the sun sink below the horizon, a smile playing on my lips. I felt fulfilled as a mother and a wife. When our kids turned six months, Jaden and I got married on the beach during sunset. Thirteen years had passed since we got married. Jaden was still as loving as always. Our boys were a carbon copy of their father. They were also very identical. They were different in subtle ways though. Xavier had been growing up to be a well mannered, goodlooking boy. Oliver, our second son, was a little less well mannered. He was a troublemaker, most of the time. Jaden and I hoped that Xavier would continue to remain as charming as he was. We hoped that he would hold on long enough for his mate to finally locate him. In five years, he would be eighteen. He would find his mate and things would be much better and easier for him. "Mum?" I turned to look at Xavier who was standing behind me, holding two glasses of lemonade. He handed me one of them and moved to stand beside me. "Thank
KLAUSFourteen long days had passed since Jaden and Rhea went under. Rhea's fever spiked up once, while Jaden's fever remained unstable. The pack members knew about the complicated situation. They were all worried. There was so much tension in the air. It was noon and I was walking into Jaden's quarters to check on him and Rhea. Kim, the pack doctor was sitting by their bedside looking worried. "Any signs of improvement?" I asked and she shook her head. "Jaden isn't doing so well. He had a nose bleed thirty minutes ago. His fever is rising as well""I want to believe that they will make it out of the mental prison. But, things doesn't look so good for them. I'm worried that..."I cut her off."Let's not think negatively. We just have to hope for a miracle" I said and she lowered her gaze. My phone rang and I picked the call, bringing my phone to my ear. "We found her" Daniel said and I frowned, confused."Who?""The woman whose memory Jaden saw. She can help with the curse of twos"
