What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER SIXTY-NINE: A Morning with the Montemayor Family
The morning sun spills through the grand windows of the Montemayor’s mansion, casting a warm glow across the kitchen. A gentle breeze wafts through, carrying with it the promise of a new day. I stand before the gleaming countertops, a determined expression on my face. Today, I’m going to do something special for Alpha Primo and Luna Cersei, and of course, for Hugh, who have graciously taken me in during my time of need. With my pregnancy complicating matters, I’ve been overwhelmed with gratitude for their hospitality regardless if their hospitality is just for their grandchild and not actually me. "Good morning, Miss Anastasia," one of the Omegas greets me with a smile as I approach her. "Are you hungry? We’ve only started preparing breakfast, but I can make a bowl of cereal for you for the meantime." "No, I actually wanna help prepare breakfast to show my appreciation for everything everyone has done for me since arriving here yesterday,” I reply, my voice filled with sincerity.

The morning sun bathes the garden in a gentle glow, casting dappled shadows across the vibrant flowers and lush greenery. I sit on a wrought iron bench, my fingers idly tracing the intricate patterns of the metal as I watch a butterfly flits from bloom to bloom. Luna Cersei sits beside me, the soft rustle of her skirts barely audible over the chirping of birds.Luna Cersei’s gaze lingers on my face as she asks, "How are you feeling? With the pregnancy, I mean."I draw in a deep breath, grateful for the straightforwardness of the question. "Surprisingly well, all things considered. The doctors and nurses at the hospital have been wonderful, and the support from the pack has been invaluable."A nod of understanding passes between us, followed by a moment of silence. Then, with a subtle shift in her demeanor, Luna Cersei broaches the topic that may be, but unsurprisingly, weighing heavily on her mind."About what you told us back when you were in the hospital..." Luna Cersei begins, he

YVANNA’S POV: The living area exudes an air of subdued tension, as though the very atmosphere is holding its breath in anticipation of the next moment. I sit on the plush chair, my posture rigid, my eyes fixed on the documents, the adoption papers and the fake hospital certificates, spread out before me. Tears are streaming silently down my cheeks, tracing a path over my skin. No matter how much tears I’m crying, I don’t dare make even the faintest of noises. Around me, mom and dad sit, their expressions are that of concern and sorrow. Mom is clutching a handkerchief in trembling fingers, dabbing at her own tears. While dad’s arm is encircled around mom's jerking shoulders, offering silent support. Christy stands at my side, her gaze casted on the floor, her posture slumped, guilt is screaming from her aura. My voice breaks the silence, soft and laden with regret. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry that my desperation to get back Hugh had to come to this."This time, I refuse to meet mom and

As I glide through the grand porch of the mansion, my every step echoes with the weight of my arrogance. My sleek dress trails behind me, a cascade of bloody red silk, matching the depths of my eyes that sparkles with a cruel amusement. Hugh and Anastasia stand by the entrance, their gazes trailing after me with disdain and discomfort. Yet, I barely spare them a glance, my smirk widening as I relish in their discomfort. The Omegas offer to escort me but I pay them no mind. I just walk past them and make my way towards the dining area where the dinner will obviously happen. With a flourish, I settle myself into one of the ornate chairs, my posture exuding an effortless grace through the walled mirror. I watch with barely concealed amusement as Alpha Primo, Luna Cersei, Hugh, and Anastasia join me at the table, each wearing a facade of composure that thinly veils the tension simmering beneath the surface. The air continues to crackle with palpable animosity, yet I remain untouched

HUGH’S POV: As the evening sun dips low on the horizon, casting long shadows across the manicured lawns of mom and dad’s sprawling mansion, tension crackles in the air like static electricity. My heart hammers in my chest as I sprint across the cobblestone path, my strides fueled by desperation and fear. Behind me, mom and dad and Anastasia. Ahead, Yvanna stands at the threshold of one of the cars parked in the driveway, her silhouette framed against the fading light. In her arms, she passes Zachary to Christy who manages to get into the car first. “Yvanna!” I call out.She still doesn't turn back, and still doesn't even spare a glance in my direction.My steps falter as I reach her, my breath coming in ragged gasps. "Yvanna, don't do this. You can’t just take my son away from me."But Yvanna remains unmoved, her gaze fixed straight ahead as she steps into the car. She shuts the door close with aggression. Then, the engine roars to life, drowning out my protests.I’m tempted to r
Last Updated : 2024-04-21What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR: Broken Once Again
The air keeps getting thicker and heavier with tension, suffocating me and the others. I’m still on the edge of my bed, my distress still palpable as I stare into the void, my mind still swirling with a whirlwind of emotions. Anastasia’s head is gently resting on my rigid shoulder, her arms wrap around my weakened form. Across the room are mom and dad, their faces etched with lines of worry and sorrow. They too, like me, are shocked and refuse to easily believe Yvanna’s revelation, that’s why they demand another confirmation, which is more likely another blow to our already shattered hopes and dreams. I know that we’re all grasping for straws, still, I wait with the tiniest hope in my heart for the medical records to be authenticated. After some moments of agony, there’s a knock on the door, then it creaks open, and the pack's Chief Beta enters, his countenance mirroring the anguish that hangs heavy in the room. In his hands, he’s clutching the medical records, his steps hesi
Last Updated : 2024-04-21What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE: A Fierce Battle
The air crackles with a deadly kind of tension as I, my muscles coiling like springs, stand at the threshold of my bedroom. The weight of impending battle presses upon me, a burden I bear with grim determination. Anastasia, her eyes shimmering with worry, clutches my arm, her touch a lifeline in the storm of chaos that threatens to engulf us. "Stay here, Anastasia," I say, my voice low but firm. Anastasia's lips part, a protest poised on the tip of her tongue, but before she can speak, she pulls me close, her lips meeting mine in a fervent kiss. It’s a silent plea, a testament to our love amidst the turmoil of the upcoming war. "Be careful," she whispers as we break apart. “Promise me you'll come back, safe and sound." My gaze softens. "I promise. No matter what happens, I'll always come back to you. I swear it." With one last glance, I tear myself away from her embrace, my heart heavy with the weight of temporary farewell. In a swift motion, I transform into my wolf form, the

I, my fur bristling with anticipation, move with a predatory grace, my narrow eyes fixed only on Dwight. Dwight, his own lupine form tense and poised, never falters under my deadly glare, in fact, he enjoys it with a steely determination. Around us, the air crackles with tension as some wolves watch with bated breath, knowing that any interference will be met with swift reprisal from both sides. This is a battle that has been a long time coming, a clash of wills that can only be settled in blood. As me and Dwight draw closer, the tension in the air escalates further, each step bringing us nearer to our inevitable confrontation. There are no words between us, no need for explanations or apologies. Only the primal instinct to survive, to emerge triumphant at any cost. "You think you can defeat me, uh?" Dwight's voice is low and dangerous, a rumble of thunder on the horizon. "You still refuse to acknowledge that I’m more capable of being the leader of this pack than you are. I’m alwa

What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIX: At the Moonlit Book Cafe
"Of course, I remember you," Author Agness says, her tone cool and composed. "But whatever you want to say, make it fast. I have another appointment after this." I don’t waste a moment. My heart races as I plead with Author Agness, my words tumbling out in a rush of desperation. "Please, Author Agness, you have to help me. I need to go back inside Bonded's world. I need Hugh. My baby needs its father." Author Agness' gaze flickers briefly to my belly before returning to meet my teary eyes. Then she sighs softly, her expression betraying a hint of regret. "Your journey in Bonded is over. That's our agreement. Once the story is finalized, then you'll return here." My resolve hardens as I refuse to accept Author Agness's words, "Please, I can't lose him. Our story isn't finished yet. The fact that we're going to have a baby means our journey must continue." Author Agness rises gracefully from her seat, her movements fluid and impassive. Just as she’s about to take a step away from

The sun casts a golden hue over the quiet subdivision as I step out of our house, my heart pounding with anticipation. I can’t believe that the day I’ve been eagerly awaiting is now, the day I’d finally meet Author Agness again. I’ve prayed for this moment, begging the fates to grant me one more encounter with the woman who has changed the course of my life. Eric pulls up in his sleek black car, the engine purring softly as he leans over to open the passenger door for me. Mama hovers nearby, excitement tinged with concern etched on her face. "Are you sure you don't want me to come with you, darling?" she asks, her hand resting protectively on my slightly swollen belly. I smile reassuringly, gently patting mama's hand. "I'll be fine.I’ll take good care of myself." Papa stands silently beside mama, his expression a mixture of pride and worry. He says, his voice laced with paternal concern, "If the contract signing takes too long, Call us, we’ll fetch you." I nod, my determinatio
What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER EIGHTY-FOUR: A Future Mother and Published Author
My thoughts are consumed by the memory of Hugh's voice echoing in my mind from last night. ‘We'll meet again,’ he had said, his words a balm to my aching heart. But as I replay the moment in my mind, doubt creeps in, whispering its insidious lies. Was it just my desperate longing for him that had conjured up his voice? Or had he truly spoken those words to me, reaching out to me from the depths of Bonded’s world? I can't be sure, and yet, in the depths of my soul, I feel a glimmer of hope igniting within me. Perhaps it’s wishful thinking, a trick of my weary mind, but I’ll cling to the possibility with a fervor born of desperation. Whether it’s merely my imagination or a miracle beyond comprehension, I’m unable to suppress the surge of joy that’s welling up within me at the thought of seeing him again. For in the end, it doesn't matter how or why his voice had reached my ears. All that matters is the hope it ignites in my heart, guiding me through the darkness with the promise of
What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREE: Missing Hugh
The living area is cast in a somber light, the glow of the setting sun filtering through the curtains, casting long shadows across the room. I sit between my parents on the sofa, my fingers intertwined in my lap, my heart heavy with guilt. Mama’s eyes are filled with disappointment, papa's brows furrowed in concern as they both look at me, waiting for an explanation. After what seems like an eternity of heavy silence, papa's voice cuts through the tension, calm but tinged with irritation and hurt. "You've never introduced a boyfriend before, so who's the father?" A lump forms in my throat, rendering me speechless. I can't even bring myself to meet papa's gaze, knowing the anger I’ll find there. "I..." I begin, but the words catches in my throat. I can't bear to admit the truth, but also can't bear to see the pain in my parents' eyes magnify. Papa’s tone sharpens with each passing moment of silence. "Don't tell me that the guy doesn't wanna take responsibility for his child." My
What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER EIGHTY-TWO: Back to My World... for Good?
The weight of my heart presses heavily against my chest. The air feels dense, suffocating, as if every breath I take is a struggle against an invisible force determined to keep me from the one I love most. Today is meant to be the happiest day of my life. But fate, cruel and unyielding, has torn us apart just when we’re on the cusp of our forever. I can still feel the warmth of his embrace, the tender brush of his lips against mine as we stand beneath the canopy of our dreams. I can still hear the echo of our promises, whispered in the quiet moments before dawn, when the world is still and we’re the only two souls in existence. But now, I’m away from him. I’m now in my own world that feels cold and empty without him by my side. The walls of my reality close in around me, suffocating me with their familiarity, their mundanity. How can I return to this life, this existence devoid of color and meaning, knowing that he’s out there, somewhere, beyond my reach? Tears continue to cas
What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER EIGHTY-ONE: The Wedding Day
As the morning sun filters through the lace curtains, illuminating the room with a soft, golden glow, I feel a flutter of excitement in my chest. Today is the day I’ve dreamed of since I was a young girl, poring over the pages of romance novels, lost in tales of love and adventure. I stand before the ornate mirror, my reflection smiling back at me with a radiance I’ve never known before. The ivory silk of my gown cascades around me like a waterfall, adorned with delicate lace at the hem and shimmering beads that catches the light just so. My dark chestnut curls are swept up in an elegant chignon, tendrils framing my face in a soft halo. Taking a deep breath, I close my eyes for a moment, savoring the anticipation that dances like butterflies in my stomach. It’s surreal, almost unbelievable, that I’m about to marry the man of my dreams. The man I’ve once only imagined, conjured from the pages of an e-novel and the depths of my own longing. I’ve never expected my life to take this
What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER EIGHTY: Happiness
The following day dawns with a sense of anticipation as me, accompanied by Luna Cersei and two Omegas, set out on our mission to find the perfect wedding gown. Despite my reservations about shopping in the same bridal boutique I had visited with Yvanna before, I find myself drawn into Luna Cersei's world of extravagance and luxury. The bridal boutique Luna Cersei has chosen looks like something out of a magazine taken out of New York Fashion Week, its opulent façade beckoning us inside with promises of elegance and refinement. As we enter, we’re greeted warmly by the staff, who escort us to a luxurious seating area adorned with full-length mirrors. I’m overwhelmed by the grandeur of it all as if it’s my first time entering such an opulent place ever since meeting Hugh, the extravagant surroundings a stark contrast to my simple tastes. One of the staff politely leads me deeper into the shop, my eyes widening at the sight of a large fitting room that can easily be compared to the siz
What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE: Disappointment, Excitement
I awake to the gentle caress of dawn's first light filtering through the curtains, casting a soft glow across the room. Stretching lazily, I push myself upright and rub the sleep from my eyes. Today holds the promise of both hope and uncertainty, like always, a tangled web of emotions that leaves my heart heavy yet determined.I swing my legs over the edge of the bed, feeling the cool tiles beneath my feet. As I stand, I glance at the mirror, my reflection staring back at her with apprehension and resolve. Today, Hugh has decided to talk to Yvanna once again about Zachary’s custody, and as his mate, as the mother of his future child, I have to stand by his side. I know Yvanna won’t be happy seeing me with Hugh, but I have to be strong too. Quickly, I moved through my morning routine. I brush my long, dark hair until it gleams in the morning light, then carefully apply just enough makeup to enhance my features, before putting on my new glasses which Hugh gifted to me.Dressed in si
What?! We're Mates?! CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGTH: Honor and Remembrance
My dreams dance on the edges of my consciousness, a haze of warmth and comfort wrapping around me like a cocoon. But as something soft caresses my face, gentle and soothing, I stir from my slumber, blinking against the intrusion of light. My vision adjusts slowly, revealing the silhouette of a figure bathed in sunlight, a familiar scent and soft chuckles drifting towards me. "Hugh?" I murmur, my voice thick with sleep. "You're awake now?""I am," comes the gentle reply, accompanied by the sound of movement. "Sorry I've woken you up."My heart skips a beat as I jolt into a sitting position, my eyes wide with disbelief as I take in the sight before me. There, bathed in the soft glow of dawn, is Hugh, his form tangible and real, a living, breathing presence that banishes the shadows of doubt that has haunted my dreams. Though bandaged and bruised, he’s awake, his eyes meeting mine with relief and gratitude.Tears well in my eyes as I throw myself into his arms, my embrace fierce with t
