His Brother's Fated Mate

Willow's POV “Willow, wake up” Was the first thing I heard before I felt wet all over. My eyes snapped open instantly as I jumped off the bed. I didn't need to check to know what had happened. My cousin, Stella, had doused me with water in a bid to wake me up. “What is wrong with you?” I shot at her as I peeled off my bed spread from the bed. “You're going to be late for the market” she tossed the keys out stall at me. I bent down to pick them up as I glared at her. She rolled her eyes and sauntered out of my room. Today was my birthday, I was turning 18 and supposed to get my mate but just like any other year. No one cared and I was still going to work. My mother married a human and died right after giving birth to me and my father ran away leaving me in the care of my uncle and aunt who were omegas and already struggling to care for their two kids. I instantly became a burden in their lives and to pay the debts, they've made me work for my keep. I only work after school on

Willow’s POV He pulled me into a small house hidden behind thick bushes and slammed the door shut. “We should be safe here,” he said and then turned to face me.My eyes widened.My savior was Lucas Salvatore, the Alpha's son. I had never been this close to him before. From afar, I knew he was handsome, but up close it was almost unreal. His eyes were a piercing blue, and his face had the sharp perfection of someone carved by steady hands. The goddess room time in creating him. His short, curly brown hair softened his masculine appearance though it only made his gaze more intense.“You're Stella's maid, right?” His eyes moved over me and I felt conscious of the fact that all I had on was lingerie covered by a thin robe. I shook my head quickly, heat rushing to my face as I wrapped the robe tighter. Maid?Was that what Stella told people?“I'm her cousin,” I said and looked around the room. I wondered how long I could stay here? I needed to leave this pack quickly. I knew what was

Willow’s POV“Wait!” The Luna suddenly said. I stopped in my tracks and turned to face her. I always try my best to look unbothered but The Luna was a woman who commanded fear and it was clear she didn’t like me. She stepped forward and narrowed her eyes at me. “Do you understand how serious this is?”I didn’t. It sounded crazy. My birthmark meant I was supposed to be the mate of one of the Alpha’s sons. It was the most ridiculous thing I had ever heard but they wanted me to stay in their home. Anything was better than staying with my aunt and uncle. So I was ready to play along.“Yes” I said with a serious nod “I understand how serious this is”The Luna looked like she wasn’t buying any of what I was saying. She took another step forward and suddenly grabbed my ear. I flinched as she twisted it“Ouch, ouch ouch” I cried out but she didn’t stop. It felt like she wanted to rip it out of my face. “If you try to steal from us or run away again. Your legs will be broken. You won't be a

Lucas’s POV“You think I’m cute?” I couldn't get those words out of my head. The way her eyes had lit up as she smiled teasingly at me. That tiny, defiant sparkle in her brown eyes had kept me awake all night, mocking me.“You’re distracted today” Logan’s voice pulled me back to reality. Normally, when we had our morning jog, I was miles in front, but today I was lagging. He was already gaining on me, his pace was steady while mine faltered.“I can’t help it. I’ve got some things on my mind” I murmured, forcing my legs to pick up the pace. I wasn’t going to let him beat me. I wouldn’t slack off.“Are these things you speak of, the new house guest?” he jabbed me at the side with his shoulder and picked up his pace. I ran ahead and maintained his pace“You know how I feel about leeches”“I think she’s cute”“Do I need to remind you, brother, that you are not single?”“I do not need to be able to eat a cake before I know that it will be sweet.”Logan said the weirdest things sometimes. I

Willow’s POVI didn’t need werewolf hearing to pick up what people were saying. They were not exactly trying to be discreet. They wanted me to hear every single thing. “She’s the one who stabbed sir Augustus” “She’s a thief"“How is she still alive?”“I thought the Alpha would detain her” I did my best to ignore the words as I made my way to my locker but there was one voice I couldn’t ignore. StellaMy annoying cousin. She blocked my path and folded her hands in front of me. She always looked at me as if she was better than me. Sure she was very beautiful, she took after her mother’s fair skin and blonde hair. Even though they were poor, they made sure Stella did not lack anything, she even hung out with the rich kids. No wonder Lucas thought I was her maid. “Why didn’t you come home last night?” I stopped and gave her a look to see if she was seriously asking me that question.“Your parents sold me off. I was never supposed to come back home”“But you didn’t stay there so wher
