Twisted Mates. THE CONFERENCE ROOM
When they got to their floor, they walked straight into the transportation unit. The first rundown meeting was in ten minutes. She walked over to her desk with that damn notebook clutched to her chest."Parrish, join us in the conference room," Dante heard himself say.She perked, bit down a smile, and then opened the notebook and scribbled something into it. Fast. Lord. She was so fucking thirsty for the job. Dante let Victoria dispose of the few documents he had signed. Dante made sure to get rid of her. "You'll be taking notes, Freya, not making suggestions," Dante said.He was careful to treat her exactly as he would any other reporter in her position. He was already an insufferable prick, so he wasn't particularly awful to her. But he was also fair, and after a week, she'd earned the right to sit, listen, and absorb.She kept her eyes on her notebook. "At least I have left the slave terrain.""Happy to always put you back in that position." Good thing Victoria had started worki
Twisted Mates. BOTH FIANCEES
Five minutes later, they were looking at Brody Madison-not his real name though-wearing custom-made racing gear, and a smug smile that flashed gold implanted teeth. He looked like the reason they invented cars, but he was actually doing this-capturing the minds of car lovers, especially teens, to focus on appreciating that mode of transportation."It's not difficult or anything." He tucked a lock of his blondside-bang back into his helmet. "Like, don't expect me to accept crappy ideas. Look within yourself. The idea is there, and hey, if you feel like making cool cash, you should go for it." The stoner laughed into the camera, sending a plume of smoke toward the lens."Is he a minor?" Dante turned to Freya.She shook her head. "Twenty-one."It was official. This generation was too dumb to repopulate. Hard to believe they would be dependent on his likes fifty years from then. Good a thing he was smart and creative. No wonder, the Shifters believed that they were highly superior to huma
Twisted Mates. MARLEY'S INTENTION
Coincidently, Dante and Freya were holding their smile intact while Jake and Ariel told them about their relationship with their partners. It was like they were having a happy chat about a perfect relationship that made everyone wish to have one. Freya could no longer take the beat, she decided to excuse herself before she did something that would secure her a night in jail or cause the over-pampered Luna to send her people to attack herself. The way Freya was scowling at everyone, she was restraining herself from throwing punches across Dante's face, kicking Ariel's feet and screaming at Jake for being selfish."So, I was worried about nothing." Jake joked."Why?""It isn't easy to find out that the woman you love is working for a hot competitor such as your fiancé. It is a good thing that he is caged. Now I have nothing to worry about. Moreover, I trust my Freya."Freya reddened, watching the cheater smirk in her direction. "In as much I love this conversation, well, I have a lot of
Twisted Mates. MIND YOUR BUSINESS
Freya saw that she couldn't subdue her outburst."Marley, you're making a pretty serious accusation here, so unless you're going to back it up with facts, I would kindly ask you to never speak to me again in a non-professional capacity." she crossed her arms across her chest.The Moon Goddess must be playing a critical joke on her. Everything was working against her. The Moon Goddess had decided to rain calamities on her today. She just knew the day needed to end before she stabbed someone with her frustrated pen."I've got my eye on you." Marley pointed at his eyes with two fingers and poked her arm. Again. She did the only thing she could without actually putting the available pen to use. Freya bumped her fists against each other twice, giving her the finger Friends-style."Did you just...?" Zara pushed off her desk, her chair wheeling backwards. She held her pen like a cigarette in her mouth."I did." Freya cleared her throat. "Please don't judge me. Living with the fact I did it in
Twisted Mates. STRANGE THINGS
The entire day, Freya avoided Dante as if he were a plaque. She made sure to finish up and hurried out of the company before something else unfortunate happens. Today, she was so emotionally, mentally, psychologically and sexually exhausted. If not for considering her self-control, she might as well have jumped on the next available man to get to fulfil her desires. What was she saving and guiding what she thought was precious to her when she could lose it to the wrong person? Alcohol and a man or a movie in exchange for a man would do the trick of de-stressing her. After all, she was more used to being alone than having someone around.Gathering her bag in one hand, she hailed a cab out front and headed home to change her outfit. Due to the entire commotion, Freya had forgotten to change her sneakers. She made use of it the entire day instead of the heels she brought, and no one noticed. What a tense day.A quiet long drive and the cab was in front of her house. She paid and proceeded
Twisted Mates. PACKHOUSE
Freya heaved the air around her into her system, filtering through the various scents. There were only two individuals that she could smell, besides herself and the yummy-smelling wolf. Both males whose scents were so familiar. At least she could be sure that she wasn't in the grasp of danger. What surprised the most is that one of the scents seemed comforting that she kept heaving it. Hopefully, whatever reason she was brought here was for good because if she didn't make it out of there, nobody would give a crap to even notice that she was missing.Even though she was supposed to complete Dante's strength, she bet he wouldn't care. He didn't give a crap that she didn't want to be claimed by him. For that matter, he would be too busy trying to build an alliance with the other pack and if that meant using her to get it, he happily would.She wished she could say that it was just because he was so desperate for an alliance. But no, he already had a reasonable number of alliances with oth
Twisted Mates. FREYA'S WOLF
His t-shirt didn't hide his broad shoulders, defined upper body or washboard abs. Ripped, that was what he was. This was a rare moment for Freya. Seeing Dante in a causal outfit was a sight to behold. This man was created differently.Ordinarily, Freya didn't much like the analytically condescending look, but she found that she couldn't help but admire that physique. In addition, both her body and her wolf helplessly reacted to the power that was practically buzzing around him; he wore authority like a second skin. Perversely, his hard, penetrating stare was heating her blood rather than affronting her. His eyes had taken on a glazed, hungry look that both thrilled and startled her. It made her wolf growl in excitement. The primal lust that gripped her was so intense it almost hurt. Well, that was just great. Maybe she was developing hate-love feelings or something.In any case, no way would her inconvenient attraction to him inspire her to react to him as her body and her wolf wanted
Twisted Mates. REBELLIOUS
Pulling herself together, She also realized that Theo was amused rather than angry."Wildcat is an understatement. No one has ever fought me that hard," Theo said. He was a tall, olive-skinned wolf. With his athletic build and redhead, she appreciated his beautiful face briefly. Funny enough, he was more her type. Unfortunately, her wolf was growling her disagreement; she rather liked the proud Alpha."And what exactly is the purpose of your unlawful mission?" exactly?" Her tone pointed out that no answer could possibly placate her.Dante's inward smile surfaced. This new side of Freya would be perfect for what he had in mind. To know for sure, he needed to tell some sweet little lies first and feel her out, find out if his suspicions about her supposed engagement were true."Jake Kendrick."Her wolf growled inside her head at the name. "What about him?""He has something I want. Something that he should never have touched.""Ah, and now you believe you have something he wants and that

Twisted Mates. EPILOGUE
A two-year-old boy held Freya's hand, his tiny fingers wrapped around hers. He looked exactly like Dante, with Freya's kind eyes. The little folk tried taking fast strides as he walked with Freya. “Archer Blue Dante, come on, slow down. You know you have shorter legs,” Freya spoke to the boy as if he was an adult.The little boy, as if reading meaning into his mother's scolding, pouted his lips and froze. Freya bent to his level and swooped him off his feet, tickling the sweet boy. He writhed and struggled in her hold before she slouched him over her shoulder once more.She was taking a stroll through the pack house, heading for the prison. Today was the visiting day for prisoners, and she always took out time to visit them, especially the Tahilas. Under Freya, that system was reformed. Tahilas were now prisoners who committed acts like treason, murder, rape, and domestic violence. Yes, she didn't want any negative strings in her kingdom. Even with that, she visited them, made sure the
Twisted Mates. A NEW ERA
Months later…Freya was dressed in a blue princess gown with diamonds around the waist region and a crown on her head. A baby boy was draped over her arms, dressed in white and sleeping peacefully. A soft knock on the door and it was opened.“Are you ready?” Dante asked, leaning to kiss Freya. He was dressed in black trousers, a white shirt with black cloaks and a crown. His had more pearls in red than that of Freya.Looking at them, the baby in Freya's arms looked like a replica of Dante except for his eyes. They screamed that of Freya. He was so beautiful and innocent.“Yes, I am, Daddy,” Freya added with a chuckle.“Keep doing that, and we won't make it to our own Coronation, Luna. Don't be naughty. Our son is here.”These past months have been filled with peace, love, and growth for Freya and Dante. Ariel and her dad had been imprisoned along with the followers of Ares who survived. The Blood Moon pack had also merged into one, with Dante ruling. All the supporters who fought besid
Twisted Mates. THE REBIRTH OF AN ALPHA AND HIS LUNA
Freya and Dante lay dead as Dante's men arrived. Theo was growling with anger. The survivors looked as good as dead. Injured in all parts of their bodies, they were bleeding. Hope was lost.“We have to take them back to the pack house. We can't leave our Alpha here like a common rogue. Now that Ares has killed him, Ares would be regrouping to attack the GrandAlpha and our side of the pack. He would completely want to take control of the Blood Moon pack,” Oswald said.Wyatt, with tears streaming down his eyes, reached for Dante in a bid to pay his respect. Seeing how Dante and Freya's blood has gathered in a pool, he wept harder. It was like a trail of wine which found its fountain and then formed a circle, except it was their blood.“I hope we win this war and your sacrifices are not in vain,” he whispered.Standing to return to the others, something happened.The moon, which was only, but a hint, came to be full, shining lavishly at where the blood had gathered. The whooshed and calm
Twisted Mates. STABBED TWICE
Dante examined Freya's neck and saw that the rope didn't do much damage. He scooped her up and tried carrying her back to the car but was intercepted by Ares who he hadn't noticed his presence.He slashed Dante's knees with his claws. “Leaving the party already?” he queried.Groaning as he held firmly onto Freya, careful not to drop her. “I would love to stay, but my Mate is unwell. A bastard messed with her.”Again Ares advanced towards him, but Dante was rapid to move out of the but he got pricked with a syringe instead. Dante turned to see the source of his pain, and there stood Bryant Bryce, the Alpha of Dark Pack. From the dizziness Dante was fighting, he had injected him with silver mixed with wolfsbane.Dante began to cough. “I knew you were too much of a pussy to be working alone. I never knew that you would join with the weak ones just to take what's not yours. Bryant, you took your opportunity well.” “Let's say that I seize power when the time is right,” Ares said.Freya wa
Twisted Mates. DON'T TOUCH HIS MATE
After the attack, Dante declared a few days to serve as a recuperating time for his people. The dead were buried with their loved ones in constant mourning, and the injured were treated. Most of the guests who were from the other packs had their people money their bodies back to their packs.He was fuming that one had dared step on his authority. Now was the time to unite his entire pack. Dante tried to reach his second in command but to no avail. Instead, a member of his old pack had found him, saying, “Ares has gone mad.”His suspicions had to be confirmed. After he vacated the throne to find Freya, he suffered a series of attacks. No one knew about his absence except Area. It only pointed out that Ares had been behind it all along and now, he had united with his enemies to bring Dante down. An unforgivable sin.Dante was growing frustrated at the slow pace of things. With no choice, he put his trust in Wyatt and the web thing Freya had created. Every second seemed to drag longer as
Twisted Mates. THE GALLOW
Freya had only managed to lay on her bed when Ariel's condescending laughter woke her up. “What now?” she mumbled to herself.“Guess who's in luck?” Ariel questioned.“You?”“Oh, dear,” she croaked. Ariel snapped her fingers and Freya's cell was opened. “Alpha Ares wants the execution now. I guess he got tired of your presence,” she happily announced.Hearing that, Freya's heart sank. She was getting killed sooner than she had expected. Before she could utter a word, strong arms gripped her, dragging her unwilling body out. “Ariel, if I get the chance to survive this, I promise you, your head will be on a stick. I don't care if your father put you up to this or if you willingly decided to,” she ranted, bashing the men holding her.“Oh, well. Empty threats. A dead girl can't come back for revenge.”Freya had been dragged to the eager crowd outside. They were roaring and enjoying their merriment. A burning fire had also been lit in the middle, exposing the gallow by the side.“Tonight,
Twisted Mates. THE WITCH
“That’s no way to treat our guest. Remove her chain,” Ares ordered as soon as Freya got in.The guard did as he was told. When her hands were free, she rubbed her wrist and groaned in pain. The guard bowed and left.“Don’t just stand there. Help yourself,” Ares ordered Freya.She didn’t have to be asked twice as she grabbed a cup of water, downing it with greed before moving to dish a plate of everything on the table. Forgetting her manners, Freya ate hungrily, filling the yearning with emptiness in her body.Ares chuckled and watched her in amusement. “Go ahead, have some more. You’ll need all your strength for what’s to come.”When Freya could eat no more, she collapsed on her chair, patting her belly. “Can we now get to the reason you summoned me?” she began. “I know it’s not to feed and take care of Dante’s property. You couldn't care less.”Ares nodded to Freya and pulled out his chair, standing and walking over to Freya. When he sat on the top of her table, hanging one leg out, F
Twisted Mates. THE COUNCIL
Furniture was broken, tables overturned with food spilled all over the floor. The floor was decorated with blood, splashed across the earth. People were laying in heaps on the floor. Dante saw Maya’s body lying protectively near Jodie’s, and he howled again. He was stable as Oswald had taken out most of the arrows, cutting him to aid the poison in his system flow out. He was stable, and he decided to stumble around through the place, kneeling to them, “check around and see if we have survivors,” he ordered.Just as he wanted to stand, he reached for Maya and felt her skin. She was still alive, and her eyes flew open in shock. He moved Maya to feel Jodie, and she was alive too and well. They were just using their survival mode since they were overpowered.“Thank goodness,” he breathed. Helping them up, he led them away from the dead bodies and settled them on a chair.Standing up, he surveyed the rest of the place, taking in the damages. With the help of Oswald who looked too okay as
Twisted Mates. TAKEN
Dante was grunting in pain as the entire place was filled with wolfs-bane, weakening him. Ariel reached for the unconscious Freya and carelessly dragged her body through the rough ground. Dante stretched his hands in a bid to hold back Freya but was stabbed by Nefline with an arrow laced with sliver, making him screech in pain.“You should have had that sex with me. Maybe I wouldn’t have turned bitter,” she whispered into his ear, licking him.Dante fell unconscious as he watched the entire place littered with bodies. His sight blurred out as he saw Nefline slit one of his enforcer’s throats. It took four hours for Dante to regain conscientiousness. When he did, he transformed into his wolf, howling as loud as he could. Thereafter, he fell to the floor, weakened by both the poison in his system and the rush of anger consuming every nerve in his system.* * *It has been six hours since Freya has been made to walk. Neither food nor water has been given to her. Her feet were bruised be
