Aria was dumbfounded as she watched Camille cry her eyes out. She could not understand the source of her pain but she had a few ideas of what was going on with Camille in her head. Thoughts ran through Aria’s mind as she tried to understand the cause of her sister in law’s cries. She was not used to seeing Camille in this condition. Which was why it baffled Aria as much as it did. Could it be because of her mate? Aria was sure it had to do with the mate who she had never seen. Aria’s emerald green eyes fell to Camille again. Her expression was heartbreaking. Camille’s nose had turned red. Her cheeks too like her nose had reddened. Her eyes had become puffy and her lips were broken as they trembled with every muster of pain that she felt. “Camille. . .you need to talk to me. Make me understand what is wrong,“ Aria pleased in a soft voice as she felt her own eyes begin to water. It was proving hard to watch Camille cry without she crying herself. Camille did not say a
The storm darkened the clouds as the lightning increased in the sky. A deafening crack of thunder was heard and the pack members shivered involuntarily.The storm during the childbirth of a werewolf always signified a bad omen on most occasions but The Blood Moon Pack has always been spared.But today… It was different.That was why almost half of the pack members gathered just outside the pack ward wondering when the pack doctor would announce the news.The news of an heir to the pack.His long-awaited heir! The double doors were pushed open immediately and a wrinkly-faced woman stepped out. Her left eye was covered with an eye patch, she was known as the pack hospital messenger.“Alpha Hendrix.” She bowed politely.The Alpha acknowledged her then stared at her expectantly. “Yeah?” “Your presence has been requested by the doctor and lady maid,” she replied.He nodded and followed her briskly to the ward where his mate was.He saw her sprawled on the bed, her legs spread
In a sparsely decorated room, as opposed to the opulence of the grand house, a girl lay on the bed.Her chestnut brown hair fanned out on her threadbare pillow as she clutched a worn bunny close to her.Her eyes were crinkled shut and her deep brown brows were drawn together. Suddenly, her pretty facial features relaxed and her cherry red lips curved into a small smile. “Really? Me?” she muttered in her sleep.Suddenly, a loud female voice called her name from behind the door of the bedroom.“Aria Jean!”The door slammed open and jerked Aria out of her sleep. Her eyes snapped open and tried to focus on the female figure at the edge of her small bed. “Wake up, Aria! Don’t you know what today is?” the female voice said again, sounding cross.Aria’s eyes finally focused, and locked on to emerald green eyes just like eyes. It was her twin sister, Ellie Jill. She sighed and sat up.Ellie’s eyes followed every movement she made with disdain until their eyes met again. “What is i
Aria could hear her heart beating loudly in her chest as all blood rushed to her head. She lifted her head to meet the blue gaze of the Alpha wolf in front of her.It was finally happening. She was the chosen twin. Her lips curved in a smile and she parted her lips to respond to the mate call.However, her mouth only opened. It was not her voice that responded. “Mate!” Ellie’s voice called out softly behind her.Aria swiveled and she saw that the two of them were lost in each other. Her whole world began to crumble before her eyes as she observed the intimate moment between her sister and the golden-haired Alpha. One tear rolled down her cheek and she didn’t wipe it off. The new mates wrapped their arms around each other and the whole party cheered. Her father came to the front, beaming with smiles at Ellie and her new mate.“My daughter has found her mate! The true twin has found her mate!!” he bellowed. The true twin…the true twin…the true twin… Those words bounced around
Aria stirred and tried to open her eyes. She couldn’t. Her body was not responding to her wishes and it was strangely silent in her head. However, she could feel, and she could hear.A large warm hand was brushing gently against her hair and her face, and his voice was a deep rumble which echoed in her chest. She was aware that she lay on a soft bed and an even softer pillow. “How is she, Doctor? Is she badly hurt?” he asked. Another masculine replied to him, sounding far away.“She’s okay. She’s a little weak from her first shift, so I passed some glucose fluids into her body. She only fainted out of shock. She’s malnourished though, but she doesn’t look like a rogue.” “I don’t think so either,” Mystery man replied, “I can feel power on her, but I wonder why she left her pack.”He was still stroking her hair.Aria wanted to open her eyes and her mouth and tell him what happened, but she couldn’t. Soon, she fell into a deep but restless sleep. ***2 days later “Why is sh
“You can’t leave. What do you mean you’re leaving? You can’t. You’re my mate!” The words resonated in Aria’s head. She stared at Alpha Damien in shock. Her emerald green eyes got wider than they had ever gotten all her life. While she was unconscious, she remembered Damien had mentioned something about her being his mate but she had shrugged it off as a figment of her imagination. Aria believed that she wasn’t supposed to have a mate because apparently, she was the evil twin as her family and pack claimed. How then could this man stand before her and claim that he was her mate? “I— I don’t understand what you’re talking about,“ Aria stuttered. Damien stared at her in disbelief. Was she really doing this to him? Was she trying to deny him? She couldn’t. No, maybe she didn’t really understand. Maybe it would be best if he handled matters with a lot of patience. “You left me this note, Aria Jean. You’re leaving,“ Damien began. Aria felt her heart racing. Her br
“As my brother claimed, you Aria Jean, are my brother’s mate. The long-awaited Luna of Crescent Moon Pack,“ Camille stated with authority. Aria felt her heart sink deeper into her ribcage. She stared at Camille with widened eyes. She had not expected Camille to confirm it too but Camille had done just that. Camille gave her a reassuring smile as she nodded at her. Aria knew that Camille would not just lie to her but she still found it hard to believe. She was the evil twin as her pack claimed. The evil twin was not supposed to have a mate. How would her pack then explain Damien who kept claiming that she was his mate? “If Damien is truly my mate, shouldn’t I feel something? Shouldn’t I feel a certain kind of pull or a chain of emotions? Maybe sparks of fireflies in my stomach? I don’t feel anything,“ Aria told them the honest truth. Camille broke into laughter. “You have been listening to too many teenage wolves Aria Jean. You are probably a late wolf. Since you had you
Ellie Jill Hendrix happily brushed her chestnut brown hair before the mirror. There was a joyous glint in her emerald green eyes. There was also the existence of a dreamy smile plastered on her face. She was happy. She never knew her life could get even better than it already was. Especially due to the fact that her father had finally rid them of her evil twin sister. She had waited for years to dissociate herself with that evil twin she had as a sister and just being able to breathe a different air from the one Aria breathed made her satisfied. The one who murdered her mother was finally gone. She rolled her eyes at the thought of Aria. Thinking of that woman always brought a sour expression to her face. She wasn’t going to let Aria ruin her day. She went back to brushing her hair. Ellie had finally gotten all that she ever wanted. She was living in the paradise she always dreamed of. She had found her mate— Alpha Gerald and this had automatically made her the Luna of the Mo
