Chapter 68
J. N. SteinSooo, Amy has known this whole time that her sisters were destined to have fated mates. But poor Amy- no fated mate for her. These chapters are my favorite to write, when the sisters, or any of the siblings are supporting each other and just showing the strength of the sibling bond. I hope you all enjoy these chapters too! Next week will be the last week of updates! Stay tuned! Thank you so much for reading! -JNS <3

Vincenzo POV 1 Month Later “I’m telling you, Viv, you’re going to want a bonus room upstairs. It could make a great office, or future playroom down the road,” I tell my sister for the hundredth time as I show her the blueprints for her and Lucas’ future home. “It just seems like too much house for the two of us. You know I hate cleaning,” Viv says, waving her hand over my blueprints. This is the tenth revision I’ve made since she told me she and Lucas would be living in our pack. I’m more than happy to design my younger sister’s future home, but she is proving to be the most difficult client I’ve ever had. I pinch the bridge of my nose and let out a big breath. “I promise, Viv, it’s not that much house. And when you and Lucas have kids, you’ll thank me for creating a space where they can play and not bother you,” I nudge her. I’m not changing these plans again. Darius has already sent out members of his pack to start the construction. This meeting was int

Emmy POV “I swear, Emmy, it’s not fair that you get the great boobs and ass in this family. So unfair,” Amy pouts as she twirls in front of a full-length mirror. She’s wearing a fuchsia, knee-length, cape dress. It looks amazing against her tan skin. I roll my eyes at her comment, choosing to ignore it. “Just get knocked up. Your boobs and butt will grow in no time,” Daya quips, as she crosses the room behind Amy, flicking our younger sister’s sleek ponytail. Amy attempts to shoot Daya a glare but she can’t hold a serious face to save her life. “How are you feeling Daya? I can’t believe you’re due next month. We’re all going to be aunties!” Pearl shrieks excitedly. She looks effortlessly impeccable in a long, sleeveless, blush-colored dress with beaded embellishments. The length of her dress makes her seem even taller. I always find it amusing that our youngest sister is the tallest of all five of us. “Ugh. I’m ready to get back to training. I get tired j

Vincenzo POV Our group could have easily walked to the theatre, but with everyone dressed so nicely, and Daya being very pregnant, Viv insisted we take a limo. She wanted us to arrive in style. I smile, looking around at our group settling into the long row of leather seats. We have all come so far. I know we still have a way to go, but this is a strong beginning to something great. We make it to the theatre in about five minutes. There is already a small crowd of pack members lined up to go inside. I open the door of the limo and I’m blinded by bright flashing lights. I fall backward into Emerald, making her fall back into Pearl, and a tiny domino effect takes place within the limo. “Oi! What’s the hold-up, Vinny?” Archie shouts from across the car. Somehow, he’s nestled next to Amy. How did that happen? I don’t like that. “What’s the matter, Vincenzo?” Emerald asks, pulling me out of protective, big brother thoughts. “I was blinded b

Emmy POV After the show wrapped up, our group convened in front of the theatre, waiting for Renz, Daphne, and Viv to come out. Viv pushes open the front doors and holds them for the leading couple. Renz has his arm around Daphne’s waist, and she has her arm wrapped around his, both looking so happy. They are no longer in their costumes, and are now both dressed comfortably in jeans and t-shirts. We all break out in another round of cheers and applause. Daphne seems more comfortable with the extra attention than Renz whose face is redder than a tomato. “Okay, okay. I think that’s enough. Please.” Renz motions for us all to calm down. I’ve never seen him like this. He usually keeps a stoic affect. “You’re not gonna hear the end of this, Renz! You were incredible. You both were,” Lucas says as he approaches the pair. He gives Daphne a big hug and then gives Renz a one-arm hug, clapping him on the back. I can see how close they have become over the last few weeks. It

Vincenzo POV 6 Weeks Later “I can’t do this…I can’t believe this is happening,” Darius says, pacing up and down the hallway of the Running River Medical Clinic. His eyes are bloodshot from not sleeping all night, his hair is sticking out in different directions, and his clothes are a wrinkled mess. Granted, he’s in sweatpants and a t-shirt, but still, he’s looked better. “Relax, Dare. Everything is going to be fine,” Tobias says calmly but his words fall on deaf ears as Darius continues to pace. “It’s happening…it’s happening…” he continues murmuring to himself. Tobias and I share a glance and snort, laughing at our friend. Darius is not an emotional guy, so I’m definitely getting a kick seeing him like this. Tobias isn’t doing such a good job masking his amusement. In fact, he’s taking a video of Darius having a panic attack. I try to swat his arm down, but he pulls out of my reach. I’m not trying very hard to stop him, and instead I’m enjoyi

Emmy POVFifteen years ago (Seven years old) It’s the day after Mama’s funeral. She got sick from the plague that kills werewolves who have a fated mate. She and Father said this day would come. There have been so many funerals in our pack over the last couple of years, but Mama’s was the saddest. Our house has had so many people from our pack coming in and out. I’m tired of talking to people. I decided to stay in my room and practice on my chess board. Father says I show a knack for the game. A soft knock on my bedroom door takes my focus off the pieces. “Come in!” I call to the other side of the door. “Sweetheart,” my father’s gentle voice says from my doorway. I can see the sadness in his eyes. “What are you doing alone in your room, Emerald? The rest of your sisters are downstairs,” he asks me, but he isn’t angry. He sits down in the seat across from me and waits for me to answer. “I don’t feel like being around people right now,

Emmy POV Present Day “It figures, doesn’t it?” I say to myself as I lay in bed. The plush white and gray bedding suddenly feels cold and stiff. How could I possibly sleep when my mind is a swirling mess of emotions? I throw the covers off me and stomp out of my bed, my feet thudding against the off-white carpeting. The apartments at the Running River Pack are nice. A blank canvas for anyone to make into their own. I haven’t added any personal touches though. The plain, white walls remain bare of any photos or artwork. No colorful pillows or blankets on the stock gray furniture. The only personal item on display is my chessboard. I guess this place hasn’t felt like home to me. After what happened almost two weeks ago, I don’t want this to be my home anymore. I lean over my bathroom sink and splash cold water on my face. I look at myself in the mirror and watch the water drip down my face. My eyes are still red and puffy from crying myself to sleep- if you can even

Vincenzo POVEight Years Ago What a rush! This is the good news Alpha Matteo has been hoping for. I can’t wait to get back to the pack and fill him in on how the meeting went. Since we made the decision to move to the United States four years ago, we have struggled to get our design and architecture company up and running. In Italy, we were well known, and sought after for our modern and sleek design aesthetics. Our pack relocated here to escape the plague and get a fresh start for our pack members. Many were skeptical about leaving Italy, but when Alpha Matteo promised that we would have a good-sized territory, gifted to us by a strong Alpha, who was friends with his father, more of our members were excited for the opportunity. As a young Beta, I am eager to prove myself to Matteo. Sure, he’s my best friend, but I want him to see that I take this role seriously and that our pack has strong leadership. I volunteered to take this business trip and make a pitch to a company in
