ZADEN My Beta stood beside me with a grim look on his face. We were both standing in front of what seemed to be a packhouse. It was large for a pack with less than twenty members. There was a large gate separating the outside from the inside. I could perceive the scents of the werewolves, but they seemed to be more than twenty. Something fishy was going on there. The gate opened just before I could knock. A young Japanese woman with startling red hair stepped out. She was wearing a white T-shirt and a blue denim jumper. She was also wearing a pair of white sneakers. Her scent was definitely not that of a werewolf. I wondered if she was the woman who had caused so much ruckus already. She stared at me for a moment. Then, her gaze drifted and rested on the rest of my pack members who'd accompanied me.'Is she the witch?' I asked my Beta through the mindlink.'Certainly not, Alpha' he responded"Can I help you?" the Japanese woman finally said, a blank look on her face."I'm here
RHEA Pacing back and forth in the sitting room of Jaden's home was making me more anxious and no matter how much I tried not to think negatively, the thoughts continued to swam my mind. I didn't know where Jaden had gone to. But, whatever business he'd gone to attend to, had seemed both important and intense, judging from his statements.I didn't know a lot about Jaden, but I couldn't help but worry. Maybe, it was the mate bond making me feel like that. I sat down on the couch and stared at the TV. Still, I couldn't concentrate.My eyes widened when the door opened and Jaden walked in, his facial features expressionless. He ignored me and walked right past me. I glared at his retreating figure and let out an irritated huff. Then, I patted my cheeks and let out a sigh.'What on Earth are you doing, Rhea? Why are you trying to get his attention? He doesn't even want you' I thought.The door opened and Trisha walked in. She ignored me and went upstairs."Jaden?!" She called out an
JADEN Was I really going to do what she'd asked? She'd sounded so sure that I was going to show up at the dining room and have dinner with her. I wondered what motive she had in mind, especially since she was more complicated than I thought. Or maybe, she wasn't. Maybe, this was her personality. A part of me wanted to know her and the other part of me? Not so much. My stomach grumbled and I let out a sigh, pinching the bridge of my nose. 'Come on, Jaden. It's clear that you're starving. It can't be so bad to hang out with our mate. Mother Selene wouldn't have made a mistake in choosing her as our mate' Tarus stated and I leaned back on my seat, rubbing my jaw. He had a point there. 'You can't be afraid of losing her. You're no longer a weak nineteen year old werewolf. You are a demon wolf and you are more than capable of protecting your mate' Tarus added. He was right. Deep down, I wasn't scared. I'd made myself believe that I was avoiding starting a relationship with Rhea bec
JADEN She was lost in thoughts and was no longer listening to me. If I were her, I would do the same. There was no way I wouldn't have seen what she'd seen. She could have been hallucinating. Still, it didn't make a lot of sense. Her wolf had been triggered as well. There had to be some sort of explanation for what had just happened. Rhea stared at her claws, a confused look on her face. Her eyes were no longer grey. One of them was forest green and the other was a very light blue. Her eyes were beautiful. "I've always wanted to have a wolf. But, now.... I'm so confused. I have no idea what I'm doing, Jaden. What's happening to me? I don't understand..." She said and I placed a hand on her shoulder to get her to calm down. She was already panicking so much already. "Take a deep breath," I said and she closed her eyes, inhaling deeply. "Now, relax." She opened her eyes and exhaled slowly. Her eyes had returned to their usual color. She stared at the ground, her shoulders sl
JADEN All eyes were on me as I made my way towards one of the unoccupied chairs in the royal court room. I could feel Zaden's burning gaze at the back of my head, but it didn't bother me. The Alpha King's seat was unoccupied and a few Alphas were yet to arrive, including Matthias.'He's annoying. I want to punch the hell out of him right now' Klaus said to me from his position beside me. 'You're not the only one who wants to do that. But, we can't do that here. You have to pull yourself together, Klaus' I said through the mindlink. Matthias walked in with his Beta, Carl. Then, he approached me and shook hands with me. "Good to see you again, Jaden" he said with a smile. "Good to see you too, Matthias" I responded. He took his seat opposite me. Zaden glared at me, but I remained stoic. After a few more minutes, the chairs were all occupied. All except the Alpha King's Seat. When he finally walked in, we all stood up. The Alpha King of the South had ascended the throne at the
RHEA Haru sat down beside me, taking my hand in hers. "It means you have the gift of vision. Is this the first time you're experiencing this?" She asked."Yesterday is the first time it happened," I told her.She gave me another smile."If you ever want to talk about it, I'll be willing to listen, okay?" She said and I nodded. She walked away and I looked at the window, surprised to see that night had fallen. I wondered if Haru was older than she looked because it felt like she was much older than she looked. I got out of bed and walked out of the room. Yawning, I sauntered to the back of the building where I found a bench. I sat down and rubbed at my exposed forearms.I gazed up at the night sky, the cool breeze ruffling my hair. I thought about what had happened earlier, a sigh escaping my lips. If what I'd seen the previous day was also a vision, it meant that it was going to happen. But, I didn't understand. I'd never been able to see visions until yesterday. What exactly tri
RHEA"And if you're wrong?" He asked, his voice low."I can't be wrong. I mean--"Before I could complete my statement, he had pulled me closer to him, cupped my face, and kissed me. My heart was jack hammering in my chest and there was a wild rushing in my ears when his lips met mine. My eyes slipped close and my fingers sank into his hair.My brain had shut down completely and the world around me had completely muted. I started to kiss him back and my legs became jelly. All I could feel was his soft lips on mine, kissing me senseless.When we pulled away, his eyes had darkened and we were so close, I could see the beautiful mix of brown and green in his eyes. We had both be rendered speechless. My wolf had been stunned too. Neither of us had expected it. But, I wanted more.He rose to his feet and I did the same. When he started to turn away from me, I grabbed his hand to stop him from leaving."Let's just say you only did that to shut me up. I want to know what I mean to you. I wan
JADEN For a moment, she stared at me with disbelief, plump lips parted. "What?" She breathed and I rose to my feet, towering above her. She was quite tall for a woman, but I was taller. Fighting against the truth was of no use anyway. I wanted to make her my Luna. Mine. It was the truth. "Maybe? Maybe not?" She whispered and I quietly approached her, keeping my face expressionless. She gasped when I wrapped an arm around her slim waist. When she looked up at me, her gaze met mine. And just like that, her expression morphed into a seductive one as she bit her lower lip. She turned around, her back to me. Then, she rubbed her backside against me. I stiffened, mentally letting out a string of curses. She turned to look at me, a glint in her eyes."What were you saying again?" She whispered, her voice soft. "Is this a part of your plan? I don't know what you're thinking and it bothers me" I said and she chuckled. "Don't worry, I'm not plotting anything evil. I'm just having a lit
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"
