Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 65 - Gabriel
I had come back from another run trying to clear my head and let Aspen let off some steam. He was beyond pissed with me right now. Which I know was only right. I had walked away from our mate. Though, to be fair, she had done it to me first. Ok, I sound like a kid. Though, as I have said before, I don’t think I ever grew up, not sure I ever will. And right now I feel like shit, so if I want to act like a fucking kid I will act like a kid. Aspen is going to have to suck it up for now, I guess. I had struggled to sleep when I eventually got to bed, tossing and turning, and then just giving up before heading to the spare room and battering the hell out of my punching bag for a while. I heard noise outside, and considering the time and the fact it was pitch dark out, it drew me to the window. Only to see Manuel, Jake and the others chatting as they loaded cars and climbed in. I assumed on their way to travel to the airport to set off to head down to Lola’s pack to meet with her f
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 66 - Jake
Jaxx ran from the building and toward the cars. I urged him to the back of the cars. The thud of his dappled grey paws soft against the concrete next to the car. I pushed him back as I felt my bones change. Shifting form is barely painful anymore. The more you do this, the more you get used to it, and the easier it becomes… I grab some of the spare shorts in the car, and I see Manuel jump from the car, tears in his eyes. What the hell is going on? I know he was pissed before, but he should be glad all is going to plan and that Lola got off the pack safely. I throw on the shorts before heading to him. We can't risk being out here and being seen. “They got her J” he is barely holding himself together. Shit, what?! She had got away, hadn't she? She mindlinked to say she had?My eyes dart around. We are at risk out here. We could be seen. He is meant to be staying in the car, we are meant to be driving off pack. “Get in the car.We will talk there” I tell him. “No, I need
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 67 - Manuel
I swear my Uncle was sent from hell to torture me! Not like I could go look for my mate when he suggests me going to look for her could result in everyone dying, is there?! And he fucking knew it. I was desperate to turn this pack upside down in search for Lola, but what Uncle Mateo had said was true, we were at risk if we stayed, and there were far more of them than there were of us. If I went looking for her with no plan and my mind let loose I was putting everyone at danger. Dammit, I hate it when he was right..... Though he had been trained for interrogation and suchlike when he was a warrior. I do wonder if some of his bluntness and lack of filter was partly due to that sometimes. He certainly had a way of getting his point across, to get what he wanted. That was a skill in itself, one he used to his benefit. And to the benefit of the pack on many occasions. Usually it impresses me, but right now, I do not appreciate it being used against me. Dick. I can’t believe
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 68 - Jake
I see a smile spread across Manuel’s face.“Ok, Angel, I am going to go in case anyone needs me, plus we need to find somewhere to discuss what we do next, speak soon ok.” And I watch as he puts his phone on his knee. “Council are coming J. My Dad called them as soon as they came out, well called Lilah to see if things were in motion, and for an update. So they are on their way. We need to get planning and soon.” Manuel says to me. He seems a little calmer, maybe knowing the council are on their way gives him some hope that Lola will be ok. It is just what happens before then and if the council have much strength against the absolute nutjob of an Alpha. “We will head for that nearby dirt track we saw on the maps, we can park the cars there, let Lilah know we are parked there so the council can find us. And we can get back quickly if and when we are needed” I tell Manuel. Uncle J, park up on the dirt track like planned, yeah? I link my Uncle. I might be getting old Jake,
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 69 - Lola
I had got a good distance away from the pack border and stupidly thought I was safe. I had got toward the edge of the forest, Nori running at her fastest I think I have ever known her run. Maybe she knew what was at stake. I loved running with her, the speed she can go is impressive, and feeling the air rushing through her fur, and seeing things through her eyes. She is in her element running through the trees, be it in the sunshine, or in the moonlight. But as she approached the edges of the trees, I knew it was time for me to shift back to my human form, dropping the bag of clothes she had in her mouth to allow me to get dressed. All planned and pre-prepared beforehand.The guys at Midnight Forest had thought of everything, though I have to say, I am glad about that or I would have been walking around town naked, as I hadn’t thought about that in the rush of shifting and leaving when all hell had kicked off at the packhouse, to be honest. My main concern was to get out as quickly
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 70 - Gabriel
Getting through the border of the pack was far too easy. No one appeared to be running border patrol like they should be. I had decided heading over the borders was an easier option than trying my luck with a guard at the gate, and it turned out I was right. I figured linking Lola direct would be easier than going through Manuel as it is her former pack, so she would give better directions and, to be fair, Manuel could still be fighting. Gabe! Oh thank goddess. I don’t know where they are. Fighting kicked off. I ran as planned but Alpha caught me as I escaped. I’m locked up. Lola mind links me sounding panicked, and having listened to what she said, understandably so. Fuck, that ball bag of an Alpha had caught her and locked her up. Plus, we don’t know how Manny and the others are doing either. Shit, shit shit. And shit again. I knew I should have come with them . Not that I would have stopped this happening, but I wanted to be there with them to help, make sure they are ok.
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 71 - Lola
The second I heard Alpha Jace’s voice I knew we were in trouble. Gabe let go of me and spun around. I could feel anger emanating from him. He always seemed so sweet and funny, other than when he had been upset, that is. But that had been understandable considering his mate had literally ran on him with no explanation. “Don’t need to ask who you are, do I?!” Gabe says bluntly. “Oh another cocky little fucker then?!” Alpha Jace snarls, moving toward Gabe. “No, just a guy who does not like a man who treats women with disrespect. Not to mention one who has left my mate that terrified to take her mate for fear of what you may do. That tells me you are a fucked up excuse of an Alpha and a werewolf.” Gabe is scowling as he talks. Shit, he has mentioned Esme. I don’t think she wanted Alpha to even know. “Your mate? Your mate is from my pack? And how would you have met her? Who would that be? Though if you’re here saving this one, are you linked through her?” Alpha Jace is
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 72 - Gabriel
I did the right thing, I stayed calm, tried to get out of there with Lola, to keep her safe for Manny and that fucking nutjob of an Alpha ran for me. I used all the training I had to fight him off. I didn’t realise he had a damn knife though. The first I realised was the sickening sharp pain as the knife split my skin. I was ready to shift, but then Aspen seemed to fade, like I was losing radio signal. The strangest sensation I have ever experienced. I have had him go quiet on me when he is in a mood and I call that radio silence, but this was something on a different level. It was like he was literally fading, like I was losing a connection with him. There had to be something on that knife….. I tried to fight some more, warrior instinct kicking in, but that sick fucker wasn’t using any normal fighting technique, just erratically stabbing me, the pain intensifying at each contact. I managed to dodge a few and push him away. But some definitely broke the skin, and from the wet

12 months later continued… Listening to Esme panic rushing around the house, I am wondering why we offered to hold a get-together at our house for our friends. We should have let it be at Lilah and Knox’s like normal. Damn me trying to be clever and be a better host than Knox. “Have we got enough drinks in? What about snacks?” I hear Esme ask for about the tenth time in about half an hour. She is dashing between the kitchen and the lounge, trying to make sure everything is tidy, when I know my friends really could not care less, and within ten minutes of them being here the house will look a mess, especially when Finn and Kai are toddling around looking for things to mess with. Thankfully, Dan and Indie’s youngest, Wren, is not at the age where she can toddle very well just yet. Though she is just as much of a mischief as her big brother, so that was only a matter of time. “Mi Amor, it is fine” I tell her the same thing I have every ither time she asked. Not that she wil

12 Months later I woke up to look at my mate. She looks so tired, yet so beautiful. The pregnancy seems to be taking it out of her. Though she is getting close to the end now. We truly cannot wait for our pup to arrive. We had waited to find out what we were having, wanting a surprise. I mean the pregnancy came as some what a surprise, so why not let the gender be one too. Well, I say the pregnancy was a surprise. We had not planned it as such, yet we had not done a massive amount to stop it happening either. We just hadn’t discussed having a baby just yet. Lola was getting settled in working in the daycare centre and loving every second of it. Her confidence seemed to be building, and the kids there seemed to love her. I think some people just have that kind of personality that draws children to them, and Lola is definitely one of them. She is a natural with kids, so I know she is going to make the most amazing Mami to our pup when they arrive. She had been unwell for
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 119 - Gabriel
I would say thank the goddess it is the weekend, but I have been busy cleaning the house today while Esme has been working on some coursework for her degree. I was being the ever perfect mate and providing food and drink for her, so she could focus on her work as she told me she had quite a lot to do. I truly do not know how she does it. I look at the work each time I walk in the dining room, where her texts books, note books and laptops are now spread across the table, and in all honesty, it looks like complete nonsense to me half of the stuff. Plus, I see how many notes she has written, and I truly think I would get bored and think I can’t be bothered and give up. I have yet another level of respect for my mate, I truly do. This is some serious dedication. And she is seriously impressive. Our hospital would be lucky to have her when she graduates. We had agreed to our day doing this, then we were having a lazy night together, time to chill out, movie night, takeaway a
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 118 - Manuel
I was glad to have had my time off with Lola, but was ready to get back to work I have to say. Ready to get back to training and burn off some energy through fighting and sparring with the other warriors. Lola had gone into the Day Care centre, her first day being yesterday, and she had absolutely loved it! The staff seemed to love her, and she got on well with them. And Lola loved being around the kids, so I think she had definitely found her calling in life. The smile on her face when she walked out of there at the end of the day to meet me, told me that she was going to be happy there. After a hectic day training, and going over training programmes for the young warrior programme, I had finished later than expected so I had already linked Lola to let her know so she would not expect me to be there to meet her like I had the day before. Gabe and I both were in charge of planning a new training programme for upcoming warriors, and had to work on the training regime
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 117 - Willow
I walk into The Spirits of Tea tea room feeling nervous. I was unsure whether to agree to come or not, to be honest. I have not really spent time with this Diego. All I know is, I think this guy is my fated mate and the crazy fool had run away when he realised. Or I assume he realised. He was new to pack, had come in with the newcomers from the Crimson Night Pack. They seemed nice enough and his parents had made friends with my parents. My wolf Fern had gone crazy the moment I had crossed paths with him in the pack house, but then as I approached him to confirm who he was, he looked at me, his chocolate brown eyes full of uncertainty and he bolted out of the door. Fern had been skulking since. Both of us unsure if this was building up to a rejection. Imagine that, the daughter of a former Alpha being rejected. That would not look good. I honestly did not know if I was hurt or angry. I had not told a soul. Kept the pain and misery to myself. Not wanting anyone to judge me, or
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 116 - Knox
My head was buzzing with the information Manuel had mindlinked me. I drop off with it on my mind and wake up with it still taking over my thoughts. I can’t believe Willow had found her mate yet had not confided in anyone. She would normally speak to our Mum, or our sister, yet nothing had been mentioned. I would maybe have even expected her to confide in Lilah or Indie, but again I would have expected that to have been leaked back to me through them as neither one is good at keeping secrets. She must be in bits feeling rejected by her mate, and I know how that feels. Been there myself with Lilah when we first met, strangely enough . Not for the same reasons, but came back to her not feeling good enough, though she had the added fear of being terrified of being hurt. I can’t imagine how Diego must be feeling. I know how many people consider Alpha families as being way above them, and would see a warrior as not worthy of being mated to someone within the family, but our family ar

We left the BBQ later in the day, Gabe and Esme seemed to have disappeared, not sure when. But Lola and I had enjoyed time with everyone. I get on well with her brother and Esme’s brother, so working with them would be good I think. The week off with Lola seemed to have flown by, but it had been so worth it. We have sorted the house, got a few things for it that she liked so it was more a mixture of our things now and not just mine, which is something I wanted to do for her. We have had plenty of time to chat and I think I see some definite positive changes in Lola now, so I do think we are on the way to things improving for her.I don’t think she will ever get over the crap she went through in that pack, but then I doubt most of the others from there will either. I realise this isn’t going to be a sudden fix, and will be a slow and gradual thing we work on together, and I am good with that, so long as she is doing ok and she is happy. She has been doing amazingly in not trying
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 114 - Esme
We had spent the afternoon at Manuel’s parents’ house, spending time together as one big family I guess. A BBQ to welcome my family and Lola’s family. Though to look at them now you would think they had always been here. No doubt there will always be scars and damage from the Crimson Night Pack, but I think Midnight Forest Pack will be the way forward for them all. There had been so much laughing, maybe something to do with the excess of beer drunk. But at the same time, the atmosphere felt perfect, so warm, and welcoming, like we were home. Like we belonged. My parents clicked with both Mateo and Eden, and Javier and Ada like they were old friends. It was nice to see and I think it will help them settle in. It was the same for Lola’s parents. Mum and Auntie Val are now looking to try painting with Indie – heaven help her! But they are also planning to help around the pack house too. Suggesting cooking classes for some of the younger wolves, which apparently former Luna, Ava loved
Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 113 - Gabriel
Family BBQ day was here again, though this was literally a week later, due to the fact we were welcoming Lola and Esme’s families. Though I seem to have seen them every day this week, I am sure of it! And from what I can gather, our parents are all spending time together anyway, so I'm not sure the BBQ is truly needed. But I won’t say that or my Dad would likely slap upside my head, or my Abuela threaten me! Still, time with the family is meant to be nice, someone else is cooking. And now I have my mate by my side, I don’t have to worry about being hassled about finding my mate, so in all it should be a good day. I get to chill with Esme, and my family while eating good food and drinking beer in the sunshine. Sounds like a pretty perfect day to me. This week has been so hectic helping Esme’s family get settled, and getting into a routine of Esme being back at university but from our home as a base rather than her apartment near the university. I introduced Diego and Luis to
