Loriann's POV

Meg has been so withdrawn these past few days.

For the first time since we became friends, there is silence when we are together. When we attend lectures, she sits in a corner and stares ahead. She no longer approaches me when I drive up. I miss her bubbly vibrancy, her smooth babble and her wide smile. Something is definitely going on.

When Romero and Jace ask us out, she brushes it off with the excuse that she is too busy with personal matters. That disappoints me, this was my only chance to get close to Romero, to alert him to my presence in the pack. But from the looks of it, I'll have to think of something else, Meg is now more introverted than I am.

At first, I thought it was temporary. But it's been going on for several days now. I want to get my old friend back and be the Power Four that we used to be. Jace enters the canteen and sits down next to her. She doesn't even notice him, staring down at her phone as if a

    Still Loriann's POV "Mum, Dad, I'm home". Arriving home, I am surprised to find both my parents present. This is very rare but these are my best moments. Having dinner with my parents, watching TV or playing games are my favorite pastimes. They shower me with so much love as if to make up for all the long hours they spend at work and pay less attention to me. However, I won't be able to enjoy our quality time as a family for long tonight because of the date I have with my three friends. My parents are sitting on the couch and look up as I walk in. I drop between them and they immediately put their arms around my shoulders. "Hey sweetie, how was your day?" my father asks. "We learn that you tend to be in a privileged company. Alpha Romero and his Beta prefer you and Meg out of all the she-wolves in the pack". I blush like a sailor at this assertion. "They asked Meg for help and I'm just tagging along. It's n

  • You Promised Me, Alpha!   Fits So Well

    Future Alpha Romero's POV Sipping my whiskey, I stare at the two women on the dance floor. They are swinging and laughing with a glass in hand, clearly enjoying themselves. Jace and I have managed to distract Meg from her fear of losing her mate. She can't possibly feel the mate bond yet but now that the Alpha has approached her, she doesn't want to lose him. Quite understandable, as each werewolf only gets one mate, so it is best to keep him. In exceptional cases, the Moon Goddess grants a second chance mate, but it is uncertain and it can take much longer to meet one. Werewolves don't cope well with loneliness, so they prefer to accept their fated one. Man! I can't wait until I'm twenty-one to find mine. I keep wondering who that could be, what she looks like and whether I will meet her at the stroke of midnight. My heart pounds like crazy when I think of meeting her one day. Sure I won't reject her, I even think of marking her right away and having the Luna ceremo

  • You Promised Me, Alpha!   The Cave 

    Loriann's POV Staring at the ceiling of Meg's bedroom, I still can't fathom what happened tonight. Romero was suddenly in front of me, had taken me in his arms and so I stayed there all evening. Sometimes he would sing the lyrics of the songs in my ear and I couldn't resist moving closer to him. We danced in sync, it was amazing. More amazing than I thought possible than I ever dreamed of. His scent was intoxicating, so I inhaled an ample amount of it. I don't know when I will have the opportunity to enjoy it again, so I was not sparing to store it in my system. Damn, I must have him. Romero has no choice but to do what he promised. Unfortunately, it didn't come to an intimate kiss. Only when he dropped Meg and me off at the door did he brush his lips against my forehead. With difficulty, I managed to push away my disappointment, I had been waiting for our first kiss like forever. But not to worry, we have our whole lives ahead of us. "That was a great night, huh Lori? The men went

    Loriann's POV still Aghast, we turn in the direction of the voice. And there we see a witch standing there, staring at us with raised eyebrows, waiting for an answer. "Hey, I didn't know there was a coven so close to the pack. You, Meg?" I ask my friend in surprise. But she too stares at the witch as if she were a ghost. She shakes her head in denial. " Nah. It took Xanna two days to reach Eclipse Howl. And our warriors would surely have picked up her scent so close to our border". And then the woman starts laughing. "Come out and introduce yourselves nicely," she calls out to us. "I've lived here for additionally five years, I even helped the rogues settle here". "The rogues? You lived here with the group?" I ask, wading through the water toward her. She holds out a hand and helps me onto the shore. "Are you looking for the rogues? They broke up a few days ago. To Blue Blood, if I can believe their Alpha," she tells me. "What do tw

    Loriann's POV still "Girls, the Alpha and Beta are downstairs. They're waiting for you." The loud voice of Meg's mother startles me from my sleep. Drowsy, I lift my head to her blurry figure in the doorway. "How come you guys are still asleep? It's almost noon already. It is even too late to still be asleep for a weekend". Shaking her head, she looks at Meg and me on the bed. As always, my best friend has snuggled up against my side as I lie on my stomach. Meg slowly starts to move, moaning in displeasure before she is fully awake. "Mum! We're coming. They said they would call us before coming here. Mrs. Smith's mouth is tightening. "I bet they tried. But the ringtones were obviously not loud enough to wake you from your beauty sleep. In any case, don't keep the boys waiting too long. Sighing, we sit up straight and get out of bed. In the bathroom, we brush our teeth and wash our faces so that we can meet the boys decently. Still in ou

  • You Promised Me, Alpha!   Past Hunted

    Future Alpha Romero's POV There's a reason my mother makes sure my wardrobe is always well-stocked so I can walk around well-dressed. Shopping is not really an activity I enjoy. I would rather sit with my father in his office discussing the affairs of the pack or read a book on the history of the supernatural in the library than scour the malls. But for some reason, I find myself looking forward to this outing with our girls, as Jace calls Meg and Lori. Even Xan, my wolf, is excited, he can't wait for us to start this trip. I realize now that it is Lori who has got him in the mood, this wolf of mine is just crazy about her. Last night she was amazing, we danced as if our lives depended on it. I forgot for a moment that I was the Alpha heir and she was the daughter of the pack doctors. We were just a man and a woman having a good time. Of course, I noticed the steely glances thrown in our direction. It had been years since I'd had so much fun at a party. The DJ altern

  • You Promised Me, Alpha!   Take Her With Me

    Future Alpha Romero's POV Betrayal, anger, disappointment. All sorts of emotions run through me the longer I look at Loriann. She shifts uncomfortably in her seat, probably out of guilt. I can't believe she kept me in the dark all this time. Yes, I remember it all now. Lori saved me from a bad fall on the slide. We were barely five at the time. After that, I was so grateful to her for saving my life that I showered her with gifts almost every day. I shared my food with her, she was my only playmate. We had a good time together, sometimes she would come to the packhouse where we would spend time in the recreation room. And then her parents left the pack, just as Aniyan had mentioned. Crescent Moon had a shortage of medical staff and as part of the cooperation agreement, we offered them some specialists. I remember now how sad I was not to see her again, but she promised to come back when she was older. And she did, three years ago. My God, how could I have forgotten her? And she nev

  • You Promised Me, Alpha!   Transformation

    Loriann's POV It was definitely painful to see that Romero did not remember his promise to me. If Aniyan hadn't reminded him of what happened in preschool, I would still be in the oblivion corner. Even knowing my role in his past, he still couldn't remember his promise to make me his Luna. Every time we had lunch in the school canteen, he told me in his silly way how much he loved me and that we would have lots of puppies together.And here I am in the packhouse, Romero gave me the flat right next to his. I have been living here for almost a week now and I love it a lot. Meg has stayed with me all night and I'm about to ask Romero if she can move in with me. And the Alpha and Beta spend all their spare time with us, especially in the evenings, we can be found in the entertainment room of the packhouse.Tomorrow is Romero's birthday. And the next morning he leaves for two years of Alpha training. I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't miss him. Now that I am closer to him

    Sixteen years later...It's a family reunion, Alpha Alvarez and Luna Meg have just arrived in Eclipse Howl, accompanied by their Betas Zalev and Louise of Blue Blood. They are guests of Lori and Romero for the annual family reunion. Cliara and Hedrick are on their way, late as usual. They keep complaining that it is high season and they are having trouble finding seats on the plane. They have turned down several offers from Romero and Zane to pick them up by jet. This couple just likes to arrive late to make a grand entrance. Beta Jace desperately tries to keep the barbecue going until the meat is done. He has already burned himself a few times due to his inexperience. But he is determined to prove himself, and Romero stands with his hands at his sides, shaking his head as he watches his heroics. "Please Latore, wear a shirt anyway. You are on your own time, a shirt is uncomfortable at a barbecue," Lori tries to persuade her

  • You Promised Me, Alpha!   Branded

    Future Alpha Romero's POV "Lori, baby. Come to me. Come here, my fated Luna." I hold out my hand, calling her to me pleadingly. She hesitates, a confused look on her face. The witch nudges her from behind and she finally moves. She walks towards me with cautious steps.And then I noticed that her clothes were odd. She is dressed in black, and the cap does not match the event at all. But then she has a bow and arrow in one hand and a spear in the other. And I immediately understood what she was up to. This Luna is still fighting for her place in my life. When she was a few steps away from me, she suddenly sobered up. She looked wildly at the props in her hands and let them go, dropping them to the floor. The sound was sharp in the silence. Shaking my head, I grip her upper arms and pull her into my embrace.Our lips meet in a searing kiss and I have to stop myself, mindful of our guests who are still waiting in silence.

    Loriann's POVIt's all fun with the girls.Louise, Rachel and I tease the newly mated as they shyly stare at us. Meg proudly shows off her mark, a blue moon with a wolf's head in it. Cliara seems to have one too; Hedrick must have wanted to make sure she didn't change her mind. "I couldn't imagine before how great it would be to be mated. I was afraid I wouldn't be enough for him. So I hid my insecurities behind that arrogant attitude. Everyone thought I would know exactly what to do when I met him one day," Cliara sighed. "Hedrick is amazing. His time among humans has only been good for his character. He helped me get over my anger and desire for revenge." Louise rolls her eyes. "Good? The debauchery over there is unbelievable. At least I used to stay away from mated wolves, human girls don't differentiate. Even if the men are married, they have relationships. But werewolves are saved, the Moon Goddess united the souls of mates. If one mate is adulterous

  • You Promised Me, Alpha!   A Scent, No Lori

    Future Alpha Romero's POVDamn it!This is not going as I had planned. My mother has thwarted the most important part of my plans for tonight. I wanted to keep Lori with me, there is something in her aura that forces me to be vigilant. Would she leave if it turned out that someone else was my fated?Hell, no! She won't leave, I won’t allow that. My cubs and I need her here, with us. Today I am ready to challenge the Moon Goddess if she appointed another she-wolf for me. I want Lori, with all her flaws. I know she is not the innocence itself, her looks are deceptive.Keeping my pups a secret as her title of Master in Martial Arts, the coldness to join our search for the one who torpedoed my dating life, and then the revelation from the rogues that she was the one who chased away all my crushes out of the pack. Well, that doesn't exactly fit the profile of the quiet, withdrawn girl at school.No, innocent is definitely not the word fit for my Lori. But she will be the perfect Luna to ke

  • You Promised Me, Alpha!   Tradition Takes The Lead

    Still Loriann's POVEverything stayed the same.When we finally land at Eclipse Howl, we are stunned by the crowd waiting for us. Not only wolves from our pack but also from the surrounding area have come to greet us. I suspect this is all out of curiosity, all the attention Romero and I are getting on social media hasn't gone unnoticed. We have become the talk of the werewolf community. We step onto the platform like two red-carpet celebrities. Romero's arm grips me tightly; the man has no intention of letting me go tonight. A storm of cheers erupts as Jace rushes up the steps to join us."Romero, there is a traffic jam at our gates, wolves from distant packs have traveled for hours to be here. Your birthday and the mating are of great interest to them. Man, I really hope this ends well." Sweat broke out on the Beta's forehead as his eyes flicked between his Alpha and me. Smiling confidently, Romero kisses the side of my face."Tonight we're going big. W

    Again, Loriann's POVRomero's head jerks up and he locks eyes with me.The tension falls from his face, I see the love of the past few days filling his eyes. He's clearly surprised by my answer, it's obviously not what he expected. "Is that so, Lori? What if I ask you to prove it? Your mere words are of no use to me".I lick my upper lip, not sure where this conversation is heading. It is not me who has to prove something here, it is he who has to keep his promise, be strong enough to deliver. This damned mate bond could make him forget everything, including me. "Try me, Romero. You don't even know what I am capable of," I challenge him. I now have his full attention. For him, too, our conversation is starting to become very important. "Tell me what all our nights here have meant to you. We lived together in the packhouse, but I wanted to make special memories here. Did I succeed?""Perfectly, baby. It has been an amazing few days.

Every night he holds me tightly in his arms and in the morning we make love until our stomachs remind us that we also need food to maintain our energy levels. We swim and snorkel in the clear sea and sometimes hire a speedboat to explore the island's interesting spots. The capital is a great sight from the sea, especially at night. We also hire jet skis to go wild on the open sea like teenagers, the water is totally at our disposal.In the evenings, we lay on the sandy beach, staring at the different colors of the sky. We talk about everything except our families and the question of our mating.When the sun is at its highest, we sit under the coconut trees with a big jug of ice-cold juice, reading a book or scrolling through our social media accounts on the phone. And, of course, I never forget to ru

    Future Alpha Romero's POV againI won't lie, but when Lori told me that Era wouldn't say anything about a mate yet, I was partly relieved. If I wasn't her destined one, then no one else would be either.My hopes were high when I saw her exit the Jet and I prayed to the Moon Goddess that she would pounce on me with her fangs barred. Of course, she wouldn't be able to mark me yet, but at least I'd know what to expect in a couple of weeks. I have been begging the beast inside me all day to tell me something about Era. It seems that Xan and Era are plotting something, which both annoys me and fills me with hope. So I've come up with this plan to go on holiday, the two of us alone on an island until the eve of my anniversary. There is nothing heroic or gentlemanly about it, my intentions are purely selfish. I want to prevent a male from claiming my Lori before I get the chance, I want to keep her out of the public eye. Today is her twenty-first birthday, and now that I am no

I get on board and see Jace scoop up his girlfriend and embrace her in a steamy kiss. The two adore each other, and I can see a new couple coming up as soon as the Beta turns twenty-one. That will take a few more weeks, but that gives them plenty of time to prepare. The pack is gradually warming to this witch, her gentleness has captured their hearts. Jace straps his girlfriend in and turns to me."Lori, do you know already? Has your wolf given you any clues as to whether you and Romero are destined?" He can barely contain his curiosity, and like the rest of the pack, he is on edge. If things go wrong between Romero and me, he will be in charge of restoring peace.
