Catherine's POV
''Do you know where to get it?'' He asked, ''Yeah.'' I said and pointed in the direction of the drink stand. ''And I have some cash on me.'' I added and made my way to the drink stand. I walked past different cars and finally got to the drink stand. ''Good evening, can I get three bottles of coke.''? I asked the attendant, who nodded his head and went for the drinks. I stood there and watched him bring out the bottles of Coke from the fridge and placed it on the counter. ''five dollars.'' He said, ''I'll pay for it.'' Someone spoke from behind, which made me turn around and met a good-looking young guy who should be in his early twenties, glaring at me. He has short black hair that was gelled and combed backward, fascinating sea blue eyes, pointed nose and small lips. ''Are you done checking me out?" He teased while I scoffed and looked away. ''Greetings.'' The attendant greeted the young man while he lowered his head with respect. I'll pay for her drinks.'' He said again, while I shook my head in disapproval. ''Thanks, but that won't be necessary.'' I said in a polite manner. ''Really?'' He mocked and took a step closer while he sniffles deeply. ''Human!'' He said with a mockery laugh, ''Weak but always acting tough.'' He mocked again while I stood there furious at his words. ''With all due respect, humans are not weak.'' I spoke, angered by his attitude. ''Really…'' He took another step closer, that we were just an inch apart. ''I believe you are new in this town and so you don't know who I am.'' He said boastfully. I moved my gaze on him, wondering who he was, because I knew he was definitely not one of the alphas. ''Listen, I don't want any problem.'' I turned around and dropped the cash on the counter while I picked up the bottles of Coke from the counter.I turned around and was about to leave, but he grabbed me by the arm and pulled me to himself, ''You are new here, so I will overlook this attitude of yours.'' He said and forcefully let go of my arm. With stunned eyes, I held his gaze, but decided to stay out of trouble. Sucking in a deep breath, I walked away and made my way back to the truck, only to bump into a hard, firm chest. ''Ahh.'' I exclaimed and raised my gaze only to meet eyes with a familiar set of green piercing eyes. ''You…'' I blurted out, shocked. He was putting on a red face cap that covered his face, but I quickly recognized him by his eyes. ''You again.'' He said with a soft chuckle, adding to his deep husky voice. ''Are you okay?'' He asked while I gulped and nodded my head as a response.'' Seems you are new here.'' He expressed those words not as a question, while I just nodded my head as a response when I realized I have lost my voice.We held each other's gaze for a moment until I spoke up, ''I didn't get the chance to thank you earlier today.'' I said while he responded with a blank look on his face. ''Thanks for…'' He didn't let me finish before he cut me off, ''It's nothing, I have to go…'' He spoke in a hurry and walked past me. I wanted to turn around and look where he was heading to, but I decided to move on. I got to the truck and sat in my position. ''What took you so long?'' Lucas asked, ''I was making new friends.'' I lied and handed Sandra and Lucas their bottle of drinks.'' The movie is about to start.'' Lucas announced, which forced my attention to the big projector screen In front of us. Lucas spread the blanket on our bodies which covered from our laps downward, as we got ready for the movie to start.'' What kind of movie are they showing.'' I asked while going for the ticket, ''It's a movie titled Flipped.'' Lucas responded before I could look through my ticket. ''Sound interesting.'' I said and relaxed my back on the truck while I focused my gaze on the big projector.Everywhere became silent as everyone turned off the light of their cars, which made the place dark except for the light from the big screen projector. The movie began and everyone's attention was fixed on the screen as the movie went on. A few minutes into the movie, Sandra spoke up, ''Alpha Darin is here.'' She said, ''Really, where is he?'' Lucas asked while looking around. ''Somewhere around, I could just feel his presence.'' She said and threw some popcorn into her mouth while her gaze were fixed on the screen.'' But what will he be doing here?'' Lucas asked, while I scoffed and said, ''Probably to watch the movie.'' I replied, ''You don't get it, they don't usually come out to functions like this.'' He explained while I shrugged my shoulders and took a sip of my drink, ''Maybe he decided to take a fresh air.'' I said and fixed my gaze on the screen.We all watched the movie in total silence for the duration of an hour plus before it came to an end.'' The girl made the right decision.'' I said with a soft sigh and took the last sip of my drink. ''Next movie starts in the next ten minutes, but before then I'll go refill our popcorn and get some drinks.'' Lucas said and left the truck, leaving me with Sandra.''Do you have a boyfriend?'' She asked the moment Lucas was gone. ''No, why do you ask.'' I asked while holding her gaze, but she didn't say a word, rather she shook her head and emptied her drink into her mouth. ''Seems you are a seer, did you see something that I need to know?'' I asked curious because obviously, she saw something that has to do with me. ''I saw nothing.'' She lied, but I wasn't going to beg or pressurize her, ''Suit yourself.'' I said and looked away. I moved my gaze around and noticed couples wriggling around each other romantically, which tore my heart, knowing I don't know how it feels to be loved by a man. Sighing heavily, I removed the blanket from my body and turned to Sandra's direction. ''Where is the restroom?'' I asked, ''Over there.'' She responded and pointed out a direction to me. ''Thanks.'' I said and climbed down the truck. I followed the direction Sandra pointed to me and was almost at the door of the restroom when a strong grip held me by the arm and turned me around. ''Hello little kitten.'' The stranger said with an evil grin on his face.Alpha Darwin's POV''Mate distressed.'' My wolf hollered loudly in my head, which caused a cold shiver ran down my spine. Curiously, I glared at Elliot, whose eyes were fixed on the big screen having a conversation with Darin. '' Mate in trouble.'' My wolf howled, and that forced me up on my feet. '' Is something wrong?'' Darin asked, while I responded with a simple nod, ''I will be back.'' I placed a kiss on Elliott's forehead and jumped out of the truck, making sure I fixed my face cup, so I could avoid numerous greetings.'' Mate!'' He howled in discomfort as I hastened my feet, following the direction of an alluring, fascinating scent. '' What is going on.'' I asked my wolf but didn't get a response, rather he kept howling loudly in my head, forcing me to quicken my steps. Hastily, I followed the direction of the scent, only to realize it led me to a dark corner, steps away from the female restroom. ''Let go of me.'' I heard a soft whisper coming from a dark corner, '' Mine!'' My
Catherine's POV''Are you okay?'' Lucas asked as he started the engine of the car. ''Yeah!'' I responded in a whisper and relaxed on the headrest of the car. Everything that happened a few minutes ago was still confusing to me. The person who saved me from those guys and confronted me was alpha Darwin, whereas Alpha Darin was the one who saved my things from being stolen. ''Gosh, they look so much alike,'' I mumbled to myself as I pondered on what happened few minutes ago. Alpha Darwin was saying confusing words, words I didn't understand. At first, when I saw him, I thought he was the gentleman who saved my things from being stolen at the bus stop, but later I realized he was his twin brother. What confused me was his words about me meeting a sorcerer to confuse his wolf. ''Maybe he is drunk.'' I concluded with myself and forgot about it.The car came to a halt, which wasn't aunt Lilian's home, but I guessed it was Sandra's home. ''I'll see you tomorrow at work.'' Sandra said her g
Alpha Darin's POV''What are you doing here?'' Darwin asked angrily, causing the young lady to flip in fear. ''You know her?'' Elliott asked, but didn't get a response from Darwin.Curious, I fixed my gaze on Darwin and realized he was so uncomfortable with her presence, which got me curious, wondering what was going on.''She is my niece,'' Aunt Lilian announced, ''Your niece?'' Elliott asked with a frown, while aunt Lilian responded with a nod.''What is she doing here?'' Darwin asked, irritated by her presence, which made me curious about his behavior. Darwin never acts like this towards anyone even though it's a human, but just seeing her, I could sense he was restless and angry. ''What's going on?'' I asked him through telepathy, but he didn't give me a response. ''Sorry Lilian, but we don't need more servants.'' Elliot spoke rudely, causing me to give him a disapproving glare, but he rolled his eyes and looked away.''She will be here for just a month. I want her to assist me w
Catherine's POV''What is going on?'' Aunt Lilian asked as we made our way to the kitchen, but before I could respond, a lady appeared from a corner of a room.''Welcome back, Aunt Lilian.'' She greeted aunt Lilian and hugged her," We all miss you.'' She spoke with a sigh of relief before letting go of aunt Cara.She moved her gaze to me and flashed a quick smile at me. ''I believe this should be your niece, the one you said would help you in the kitchen,'' She said, while Aunt Lilian responded with a nod. ''You are welcome.'' She smiled friendly, which I returned.''The alphas have already had their breakfast, so perhaps you can prepare their lunch,'' She said while aunt Lilian nodded.The lady led the way to the door, which I presume was the door that led to the kitchen.We three walked in, and I couldn't help but be in awe at the size of the kitchen. The kitchen was so big and spacious; never had I seen a kitchen as big as this. Four gigantic gas cookers were positioned at the cent
Alpha Darin's POVAs I stood before her, I was struck by her beauty and innocence. She had an angelic face and sea-blue eyes that seemed to draw me in. I wanted to tell her that everything was going to be alright, yet I wasn't sure if she was ready to accept my warmth. ''Stop it. You have a mate.'' My wolf howled angrily, bringing me back to my senses.''Have a seat,'' I told her while pointing at the couch.At first, she hesitated for a moment before taking the seat. Seeing that she was uncomfortable with my presence, I flickered a friendly smile at her and took the chair across her. Getting her to relax was my priority. I took the conversation more lightheartedly to help her feel more at ease.“So, you are aunt Lilian's niece?” I asked, as friendly as I could. There was an awkward silence and I could tell she was judging my intentions. I tried to keep my expression positive and friendly, hoping that she'd open up to me gradually.''Yes.'' She responded with a gulp.I nodded, doing

Alpha Darwin's POVI appeared in a sitting room, which I assumed belonged to Aunt Lilian. As I moved my gaze around the sitting room, I heard a whisper from a nearby corner. Curious, I approached the door, entered, and saw her wince in pain as she poured the spirit into her bleeding hands.As she turned around, I horrified her to the extent that the spirit she held fell to the ground. I held on with an ominous expression while she froze in fear and could barely breathe as I stepped closer, my eyes never leaving hers. She was too scared to move, unsure of what to do or say. I just stood there, looming over her without saying a word.''Is this why you were bothering me,'' I questioned my wolf, who howled but said nothing. ''This is ridiculous.'' I groaned out to her hearing, still holding her terrified and shocked gaze.I wanted to leave, but then I thought of a plan to scare her; perhaps I could get something from her. ''I believe you are all alone,'' I spoke in a low, threatening voic
Catherine's POV''Are you sure of what you are saying?'' Lucas asked, while I nodded and went into deep thought. I was not easily scared of things or people, but meeting these alphas sent an icy shiver down my spine. Whenever they talk to me, I feel belittled before then, no matter how hard I try.''I have to tell Sandra.'' He suggested, but I kicked against it, ''There will be no need for that. I don't need others to hear about it,'' I grumbled and stood to my feet. Aimlessly, I walked around as I pondered in thoughts before speaking. ''Maybe I should just leave,'' I suggested while holding Lucas's gaze, waiting for him to accept my suggestion, but he shook his head in disapproval. ''It's not the right decision, Cathy. You can't run away from it,'' He said and went into deep thought.I noticed he was so lost in thought, which made me curious, wondering what he was thinking. ''What are your thoughts?'' I asked, while he responded with a sigh and stood to his feet. ''Nothing, let me t
