Dark Romance

Twilight is a strong-willed she-wolf who is content with her life as an Alpha and raising her ex-mate's pup without him. Her world is turned upside down when he finds out, and even more so when she discovers they still have a bond. While trying to fight the pull of the bond, she crosses paths with an unmated alpha and persuades him to agree to a secret contract marriage. But Twilight has another secret: she didn't marry him for the benefit of both packs. She married him with plans to take his pack for herself and would go to any lengths to get what she wants. As she spends more time with him, she begins to see him in a new light. He is kind, gentle, and everything she had hoped for in a mate. She begins to question her motives for marrying him but is hesitant to get involved with him out of fear of getting hurt again. Unfortunately for her, her husband begins losing interest in the benefits of their marriage and yearns for her affection. Twilight's choices are complicated by the fact that she is a werewolf. In her world, mates are chosen by the Moon Goddess, and they are meant to be together forever. But what if the Moon Goddess has made a mistake? Will she take a chance on her old life with Takumi or choose the excitement of a new beginning with her mystery husband? Or neither? Find out in this story full of love, loss, and redemption that will keep you guessing until the very end. TRIGGER WARNING: There might be a sensitive topic or two.

Prologue
Third-person POVThree years have passed since Twilight had last seen Takumi. It was bad enough that she was hurt by her mate. Again. But this time, someone decided that her life wasn't enough of a mess, and she was pregnant.In the end, she decided to keep it, which wasn't a bad thing per se because sooner or later, she’d need an heir, which saved her the trouble of IVF rounds. Plus, she highly doubted that she’d be blessed with a third mate to have pups with because things are supposed to work with the first or second mate. She also wasn't keen on being blessed with another one either. And as ridiculous as it sounds, Tis also gave up on the idea of a mate and she was inactive for a whole month. All the poor wolf wanted more than anything was a mate, not an arm and a leg.She didn't tell anyone the full story though. The only thing she said was that things between them didn't work out and that it just wasn't meant to be. The only person who knew was Mitsuri and she promised not to te

Chapter 1
Twilight POVI was out visiting a faraway pack with Mitsu. Natsumi was restless, even with the minion plushie that she can’t live without, so I had to bring her along.On the way back, I stopped at a nearby gas station to stretch my legs and use the restroom.“Mitsu, can you grab some snacks with Natsumi? I don’t think the ones left will last her long. You can take my purse. There should be some cash in it, otherwise, feel free to use any one of the cards”“Got it.”Just as I was heading back to the car, I bumped face-first into someone and landed on my ass. I wish I had looked where I was going.“I’m sorry, miss. I didn’t see you there.” Someone said and helped me up.“It’s ok. I wasn’t looking where I was going.”As if embarrassing myself wasn’t enough, Tis kept ringing the words “mine” and “mate” in my ears. I did feel those little sparks during that brief moment of contact and his strangely familiar scent was drawing me in a little… hell no. Not today or ever. Seriously, who the h

Twilight POVSora and I met up at a park.“I can’t get over how precious she is. What’s her name?”“Natsumi. She’s turning two in August.”“She's even more precious now. You better watch out because I might kidnap her one day.” She joked.“Short Stuff, funny running into you here.” Seriously, who else, that I know, will pop up? I have nothing against Hansuke, but still.“Speaking of, since when did you start babysitting?” He asked Sora.“Technically, it's not babysitting if the mom is next to me.”“You mean...” He turned to me. “Since when? And how come no one thought to tell me?”“Actually, Takumi doesn’t know,” Sora explained. “I tried to tell her to change that though.”“I don't mean to be harsh but I'm with Sora on this one. I think he should know.”“See? I told you.”“Alright alright. I'll tell him if it means you two will stop whining about it. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to take her home. It's past her nap time and she gets very restless if she doesn't take her nap.” I got

Twilight POV“You made it,” Sora said.“I said I would, right?”“May I hold her?”“That’s honestly up to her.” I put her down. “I think hand-holding won’t be an issue, but again, it’s up to her.”When we walked in, a familiar scent hit my nose. It must be that guy I bumped into the other day. Great, just when I thought I’d never see him again.“Sora, do you have a guest or something?”“Yeah. I’ll be right back though.”She left with Natsumi. Weird. Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse, I could smell the scent getting closer. Why me? It’d be pretty pathetic to try and hide so that option’s off the table. It’s ok. Just ignore him, or at least try to.“Sora, what’s taking so…”You know those moments where you feel like screaming at the top of your lungs while pulling your hair out of its follicles? I’m having that moment. I also felt like an idiot because I should’ve known Sora would’ve brought her idiot brother too. Again, why me?“Uh… hey?”I wasn't going to stick around so I

Takumi POV“Who said I was?” She asked.“Then it's true.”“I didn't say that it is.”“And you didn't deny it either. So, which is it?”“Fine. It's true, I was pregnant. So what?”I honestly didn’t expect her to admit it right away but then again, she’s a terrible liar so I would’ve gotten the truth either way.“How did you know?” She asked.“Sora dropped a hint by asking me if anything unusual was going on with you before we split. I remembered all the weird things that were going on with you. I didn’t want to believe it because of the pills but I guess the effects wore off. And it made everything make sense. Why didn't you tell me when you found out?”“I told you that I'm not your problem anymore, so you don't have to bother yourself with me.”“Were you ever going to tell me?”“Obviously not. What part of “you're dead to me” was unclear?”I won’t lie, her words cut deep.“So, how's the baby?”“I don't think that it's any of your concern.”“Actually, because I'm the father, it is.”“F

Later…Twilight POV“Mama, me dweamed weiwd dweam.”“What was it about?” I asked while tucking her in.“I dweamed saw Papa yestewday. He looked lot like me or me looked lot like him. But he was vewy tall like a giant.”“Honey, that wasn't a dream. Your papa was here yesterday just before you fell asleep.”“Oh.”“Do you want to see him again?”“Maybe. Can I tomowwow?”Honestly, I'm disappointed with her answer.“Yes.”“Can I also get little bwothew or sissew?”“Honey, I'm sorry but you can't.”At least, not right now. I’m considering adopting one later on, but that’s all it is. A consideration.“Why?” She asked.“It's...well...”“Is it because you doesn't like Papa?”“What makes you say that?”“You not sad when he not here and he don't live with us too and me don't see a wing on it.”Wow. I guess this is one of the consequences of having a pup who takes after you.“Is Papa bad?”“Not really. We’re just not together. Anyway, enough of that; you need to get your sleep.”“Ok. Love you, Ma

Moon Goddess POVI made my way through many dreams until I reached the one I intended to. And my what a... uh... an interesting dream. I mostly see food everywhere. After much searching, I finally found the Alpha I was looking for. She seemed to be enjoying herself and did not notice me approaching her.“What an interesting dream you are having, Alpha. Most people dream of things they do not have but wish to obtain. But I assume you are not one of them.”Her startled expression amused me. Oh my, it would seem that I nearly scared her to death. But I do not blame her, she did not expect someone else to be here. And it is not every day, or rather night, that the Moon Goddess herself visits your dream.“You’re…”“Yes. But please, call me Luna.”“Isn't it supposed to be Selene?”“I just like the name Luna more than Selene.”“Sorry, it just makes you sound...”“As though I am an Alpha's mate? I am well aware of that, but I do not mind. Have you ever wondered why Alphas' mates are called Lu

Chapter 7
Twilight POVAs I pulled up to our destination, I realised that I had no clue what I'm going to say to Toshi. It's too late to back out now so I might as well see this through to the end. It’s not as if I had a choice because the wonderful thing that I'm supposed to call my brain decided to make my legs move without my permission and before I knew it, I was ringing the doorbell. Thanks a lot, brain.The last person I expected to answer was Toshi. He really grew up. Hell, he's really been hitting it up in the growth department. I’ll be honest, I’m a little jealous that he’s taller than me. He’s a little on the lanky side but he'll probably grow out of it. Sure, I can't pick him up like I used to, but it's a small price to pay. I mean, I can but it’d look very weird.“Mom!”Puberty is clearly not showing him any mercy with that sort of but not quite scratchy-sounding voice. I actually had to keep myself from laughing. It would’ve also been a little mean since he didn’t ask for that to h

Twilight POVYou'd think that I'd be angry or something close to that, but I just laughed as if I'd just heard the best joke of all time. It was the kind of laugh that made your stomach hurt and had you wheezing. The kind where you'd even start crying.I should probably stop because he's looking at me as if I've finally lost it and belong in a mental institution. And my stomach was starting to hurt too.“Don’t mind me. I was just laughing at the bittersweetness of the situation. Believe me, you'd be laughing too if you were in my shoes.”“Aren't you upset?”“No.” I shrugged. “I've already made it clear to your brother that I want nothing to do with him.”“Are you sure?”“Yeah, you don't have to worry about me. I'm fine.”Actually, it stung a little. But I can get over it. It’s not as if I ever expected him to put his life on hold for me or whatever.“Oh.” He went quiet for a while. “How is Oreo?”“Do you want the full story or…”“I think the full story would be better.”“Well, a few m

Twilight POV“I thought I’d at least have to buy you dinner a few times before that ever happened,” He said.“Funny, but no. I’m serious.”“What brought it on?”“It’s more of a contract marriage, under pack laws obviously. You don’t have a mate and your pack is probably pushing for you to have one, right?”“Yes, but…”“Ok. I don’t have any interest in finding one myself so no issues from my side. I’m offering marriage as a form of truce and trade between our packs. The only catch is that I don’t want to sleep with you and we’re not going to share a living space. In other words, we’ll stay in our respective packs and live separate lives. It also means no marking and no mating ceremony. That being said, it’s an open marriage and I won’t care whom you’ll fool around with. But have the decency to cover your tracks because I will not let you humiliate me or get away with it. Also, we’re not telling anyone who we’re married to until after we get the marriage certificate. If you somehow find
