I was trying to convince Aisha to tell me what she knew about Zayn and she growled menacingly in my mind. "He shouldn't be a man, he was cursed by a God to remain a wolf with his brother and father," she spat. I rolled my eyes as the truck hit another bump in the road. I hadn't said a word to Zayn after his admission of lying and simply sat next to him in the truck with my arms crossed. At least I was certain that he would keep me alive. I told Aisha to tell me and she mentioned Lycaon and that he was Zayn's father. Zeus changed them all to wolves so his becoming human again is strange. I glanced over at Zayn and studied him. "So Zeus is real," I asked suddenly and his green eyes looked sideways at me while he grinned awkwardly."Ask your wolf why the moon goddess made us mates," he suggested and Aisha whined, saying it was to please Zeus so he wouldn't interfere. I shook my head and glanced out of the window. My scientific brain is not ready to wrap itself around the added knowledg
"Take me to my cell please," I mumbled sourly and he dragged me down a long row. I was put into the very end cell with an occupied cell next to it. Zayn slammed the door and told me sorry for everything that had happened. I shook my head and told him I was sorry for believing that he was different. He exhaled harshly and turned to leave me. I wiped the stray tear that fell down my cheek as I watched him fade down the row. "Does that God know that you're carrying his pup," an older woman asked me in the next door cell. I shrugged and went to lay on the cement pad to forget about my problems until the old lady said my head was shining gold. I lifted my fingers to my head and felt the stickiness. I must have cut it when I hit it in the van. Aisha told me she was working on it but the silver bullets took a lot out of her. I growled bitterly in annoyance and looked for something to clean it up with. I was surprised by the old woman passing me a handkerchief. Aisha perked up in my mind sh
"My daughter, Claire can be your Gamma," Enzo said quietly and I smiled. I told him that'd be awesome if she wanted but we didn't have a name for our imaginary pack. I couldn't call it the golden blood pack because not all the cryptids carried the rare blood. I'd have to sit and think about it, hopefully with the help of others. Enzo had left and came back an hour later with a full plate of pasta and told me I needed to eat a lot for the little wolf inside of me. Enzo was such a Godsend. He also told me he'd be working closely with Jordan due to his extensive knowledge on blood. I laughed softly as I ate quickly. "I don't have financial backing like Griffin has. How do the packs get their funding?" Enzo grinned slightly at my out of the blue question."All the members contribute to the pack is my understanding. Besides dear, your Beta is over three hundred and I invested my money well and own lots or territory for us all to frolic upon," he replied happily. I chuckled softly and fini
Circe couldn't tell me directly about what my future held but she did tell me I was going to have a strong blonde-haired son."Am I out of this place?" Circe smiled and told me that I was but I wasn't happy. "You need your mate. Tough decisions will have to be made which could ruin your friendship with someone special to you. That's all I've got, dear," she said softly and laid down. I frowned slightly and heard the door opening."They're here for you." I heard from Circe's cell. Great, I thought as a group of unknown medical personnel headed towards my cell."Take her to the showers and get her cleaned up," one woman ordered. I eyed her oddly and sensed something different about the woman. My cell was unlocked and another female soldier took me by my still cuffed arms with her to the communal showers. "Don't run when I unlock your hands. Enzo's plan is being postponed until he gets better since he is needed in order for it to work," she told me point-blank. I nodded and asked her wh
I sat in the dark room listening to all the others snoring, farting, and making odd sleeping sounds. It was early morning around twoish. I could see there was a full moon tonight by the multiple skylights in the ceiling. I was apprehensive about leaving with Enzo because a feeling in my gut was warning me not to. Aisha told me it was the vampire or being a blood factory for the government. "Pretty bleak options," I said quietly and heard the metal door being opened slowly. I looked down but couldn't see anyone yet. Making my way across the cell I stood near the bars glancing down the row. I was surprised by Zayn's face immediately appearing before mine and squeaked as I jumped back. "I'm getting you out if here, we're mates marked and mated, that bitch Claire told me the complete truth before she killed herself," he growled softly and I asked him how she managed to decapitate herself and he explained that there are ways and her fake father was told this. "What do you mean fake?" Zay
After an informative dinner, I was told that I'm wanted by everyone, even Interpol. Griffin told me I was safe here with him and I narrowed my eyes at him and sighed. Figures I'd need to be "rescued" by one of the world's most sought-after bachelors. Even if the women knew the truth about Mr. Moonstone all these females would still drop their panties willingly... I groaned midway through my thought and glanced over at the man in my thoughts. He reminded me a lot of Zayn. Both of them had dark hair, scruff, and strange green eyes. Only Griffin's eyes changed to a yellow when he was his wolf? "Cyrus," Aisha told me, then asked me why I was comparing the two men. I said that I obviously had similar tastes in men. She told me no because Zayn had been a blonde prior to dyeing it. "Oh right," I mumbled and Griffin asked me if I'd like a tour of his pack's compound as our wolves."The stars at night are amazing here," he said sincerely and Davina rolled her eyes, making me giggle. They both
I sat on the bed waiting for the men to come and remembered what Circe told me about my future and the mysterious man who was my soul mirror. Aisha was adding her two cents worth by telling me he was very handsome and had a limp. I rolled my eyes at her."Stop it, Aisha," I scolded out loud and Griffin grinned slightly at me."Is your wolf nagging at you too?" He asked curiously and I shrugged."Not really, she's just reminding me of what an ash tree nymph said about my soul mirror," I commented. He grinned and mumbled, "twin flames eh? That sounds interesting, want to tell me about it?" I looked at him in a panic and shook my head. "I'm certain that he's no one that you'd know," I mumbled"Cyrus just told me Aisha says your mystery mate is tall, dark, devastatingly handsome, and has a limp?" Griffin rubbed his chin in thought when the ATVs could be heard getting closer. He turned toward me and smiled."Can't think of anyone like that, even that limp part escapes me," he said sarcasti
I followed after the happy woman into a stunning lounge area and sat down upon a buttery leather couch. A pot of tea was steeping on the coffee table and smelled good."I overheard you at dinner speaking about Zayn Reed and that he was the father of the child you carry," she started and I nodded. Jack poured us both a cup of tea and was hesitant to continue. "Zayn was Griffin's older brother but Griffin was unaware of his existence due to a messy divorce of his parents. He also has a younger sister named Echo," she told me point-blank. I cocked my brow and told her Zayn had blonde hair. Jack laughed and told me he had pink, green, and blue too because he was forever coloring his hair. I took a sip of the tea and Aisha growled softly that I had noticed the two men's similarities."Is it normal to be mates with two siblings?" I asked curiously and she grinned."I believe that your true mates with only one but your estrus can be provoked by a close blood relative." I exhaled deeply and
