All Chapters of Two Warriors, Two Battles - A Twist of Fate? : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Another family BBQ, another few hours of chaos. I love this crazy lot but jeez I get a headache when they are all together! The fact now many of my cousins have found their fated mates means there are more of us, as there are more pups running around too. So even more chaos to enjoy. And for some reason I seem to get roped into playing with the kids. Perhaps it’s because I never fully grew up….. Though does any man? Still have the mind of a child, and the sense of humour too. Makes life more fun that way. “Gabriel! Chico, are you even listening to me?!” My Grandmothers says to me sternly. I see Manuel, my cousin grin at me. To be fair, I switched off about ten minutes ago, she has been wittering on at me and him about our friends, the Alpha and Luna, Knox and Lilah and their new little boy Kai. My Grandmother has a habit of talking a lot, plus I am sure she is just being nosey to find out if there is any gossip she can share with her friends. I often switch

After spending a few hours at the family BBQ I had headed home, and now was I wandering from my home, over to Knox and Lilah’s. We spent as much time there as we did in our own homes now. I had my own home built on the lake alongside the family homes of Knox and Dan in the last year, it was finally finished a month ago. And while I may not have a family to put it in as yet, I am so glad I did it. Gabe and Jake had done the same thing despite them too not having met their mate or having a family, but having their own homes built alongside the lake near our friends. So we had our own little community for our group of friends within the packlands of Midnight Forest Pack, that were still close enough to the pack house for us to get to quickly when needed. The evening was warm, so I would guess it could well be another BBQ in their garden, which likely meant I would be roped into cooking. Not that I minded. Seeing Lilah smile like she did was worth it. She had become one of my cl

I had found University such a drain on my brain today, but one I was eternally grateful for. Anything was better than being back at our pack. Five years into my medical degree now, and two years left before I was fully fledged Dr, then all the pain and suffering and long days would finally be worth it.The fact that after my training shift at the hospital I was collecting my cousin was just a stark reminder of the realities of the hells that remained at our pack on a daily basis. But I was not going to complain about seeing my little Lola. My best friend since we were pups, her visits were one of the highlights of my months when her Mum and Dad managed to sneak them in. It was a true shame she did not live closer. Both of us 24 this year, and as close as sisters rather than cousins. Lola and I had been the best of friends from being tiny, and I know she found it so difficult me being away at University. But then at the same time she was so supportive of me, and she loved her

We are all lazed around the lounge, eating pizza, Kai and Finn now fast asleep, curled up together on one of the recliners, bless them. There may be 18 month between them but they are already pretty close, though Finn is a little devil in disguise, so I can see him teaching Kai how to get up to stuff he shouldn’t as he gets older, goddess help us! But hard to believe the chances are that in front of us, curled up on the recliner is Midnight Forest Packs future Gamma and Alpha bless them. Makes me smile to think of them like that. I see Lilah watching them, smiling, I wonder if she is thinking the same as me. She looks tired, though Kai was up early again, She swears her son is a vampire as well as a werewolf pup, he sure seems to prefer the night hours! I will definitely be trying to get rid of our friends early so she can have a bath and get to bed early, she deserves a rest. I hope Knox can see to Kai tonight so she can sleep too. So much for the promises of him starting t

We have all got sorted and piled ourselves into three cars, getting a couple of our pack warriors to drive us into town to drop us off at the club/bar, like we usually do. They would be called back later to collect us too so we didn’t have to drive back after a few too many drinks. “Ah the Black Star club, where it all began…..” Dan says grabbing Indie round her slowly expanding waist as we approached the door. This is something he would say each time we came here now, with it being the place we first met both Indie and Lilah. It was sheer luck we both happened to be here that night, and our paths had crossed, but I imagine both of my friends are glad that they did. I don’t think either of them were ever unhappy before, but I definitely don’t think they were ever as happy as they are with Indie and Lilah by their side.Dan is maybe a little deaf now, as jeez was Indie loud at times! I think I was starting to get used to it, but she has whole levels of loudness I didn’t even kn
