Cullen’s POV“Sable didn’t want to kiss me,” Luke tells me, when we are behind our door. “I think this whole thing was a set up for Mable to go out with you.”I give him a rare smirk.“She told me it was,” I tell him.“Dude, did you score?” He asks.“She is in the hospital,” I look at him like he is crazy.“You fucked her into the hospital?” Luke smiles. “Was the dagger and shit the cover?”“What in the hell is wrong with you? How are we twins? Seriously? NO.” I really want to punch him in the face.“I mean, it would be a good cover,” Luke smirks.“She and I are going to be secretly dating,” I tell him.“DUUUUDE! Are you for real? I mean, that is great for you. Are you going to score?” He asks me.“Can you get your mind out of gutter for three minutes?” I hit him with the heel of my hand.“I’m horny. Sable has me all worked up,” Luke goes and lays on his bed. “We should have our own rooms like Liam, Nic and Claire.”“Agreed. We should ask Dad tomorrow,” I also lay down.“They treat us
Mable’s POV“I gave it up,” I tell Sable, as she comes in after training. “I am officially no longer a virgin.”“To Cullen, here in the hospital?” She looks at me shocked.“Yep. Even if he isn’t my mate I don’t care, He is mine for just a little while,” I am smiling thinking about the next time I can have him on top of me.“This is insane, you know that?” Sable sits next to me. “How do you plan on keeping this from Luna? Luke said she has this strange thing about her boys dating.”“Yeah, so apparently, mom and dad are on board with that, and will keep it a secret,” I smile at my twin. “Do you really think we could be mates?”“I mean, we are the only identical twins in the pack. You and I couldn’t be more different if we tried, same for Luke and Cullen. I wish there was a way to be sure. I want to be with Luke so bad.” She looks far off. “Today, when dad was about to boil over at Cullen, Luke wouldn’t let me go. He kept me behind him.”“We will know, right? I mean, we will feel it at 1
Anna’s POV2000-Flashback-“Anna,” William kneels in front of me. The whole pack is gathered in the square to see this. “I have been selfish and cruel, while you have been patient and forgiving. I want to confess that five years ago I was blinded by lust for another, I allowed myself to believe that it was love and that love would conquer all. That even my soulmate, you, would not compare. But you didn’t give up on me. You refused to accept my rejection. You stood strong, while I proved how weak I am. You lead, when others would have hidden away. You even comforted me in my grief. There is no stronger she-wolf in existence. Three years ago, I thought I was broken forever, but you put me together again, as the moon goddess knew you would. You never accepted my rejection, so I am asking permission to please withdraw it. I will never stray; I will never give you a moment to doubt my love. I thought I knew love before, but I was wrong. You know what love is and you know how to show it. Pl
Anna’s POV“Mom,” Claire comes into my room after knocking. “We haven’t seen you all day. What’s up?”She plops on my bed in that carefree way a teenager does.“A lot is going on baby girl, just working my way through it,” I tell her.“You and Daddy have been off for like two weeks now, Nic's Graduation is tomorrow, you okay, y’all okay?” She asks me.I kiss her head. “When you are older and mated, you will understand the ups and downs of a committed serious relationship.”“Okay, whatever you say,” she lays on her back and stares at my ceiling. “Do you regret not having sex before Daddy?”“Oh boy, the downside of you dating Nic, we have to talk about this,” I lay down beside her and stare up as well. “I want you to wait, because if he is not your mate, you will regret it. But you are seventeen and have to decide what you want.”Claire plays with her fingers the way she does when she is nervous.“He and I have been playing with each other for a while, I am worried he is going to get ti
Cullen’s POV“Where are we going?” Mable asks me.“I told you our first time wasn’t perfect, I want our second to be perfect,” I drive up the mountain.“We have had many, many perfect opportunities and you keep turning me down. I am starting to think you don’t want to have sex anymore. It’s been over two weeks,” she tells me.“You really want to be fucked against the door in a broom closet at school?” I ask her, taking her hand.“By you? YES!” She answers, squeezing my hand.“Well, sorry, no, I’m not doing that,” I tell her.I pull up to a clearing by a lake on the side of our mountain. Luke helped me set this up. I have a tent with a bed set up, rose petals everywhere, and the light is provided by LED candles. Luke called it mood lighting. He also started a small campfire for us to start our evening.“WOW,” Mable says, as I pull her to the log in front of the tent by the fire.“Shall we start with some meat, cheese, and crackers. I think Claire may have made this, there are olives an
Mable’s POV“Good morning” Cullen has the most calming morning voice.“Good morning to you,” I smile, as we start kissing.Last night we made love until we passed out from exhaustion. And from the way he is moving this morning, I don’t think I am leaving this tent for a while.After an extremely satisfying morning, Cullen gets out of bed.“Breakfast?” Cullen asks, opening a cooler I didn’t even see last night.“Yeah, sounds good, what ya got?” I ask, tossing his shirt on.“Bacon, eggs, coffee, and side of you,” Cullen smiles and I laugh.“You already had your side of me sir,” I say, standing. “HOLY SHIT, CULLEN!”“What's wrong?” He grabs me and holds me.“I can’t walk, what the hell did you do to me?” I ask. The pain between my legs is intense. My thighs feel like someone stabbed them, or is stabbing them as I walk.“Baby,” Cullen tries to hide his smirk. “I am really very sorry. I guess you just weren’t built for an Alpha male.“Oh,” I swat at him. “You know what asshole, you might b
Cullen’s POV“Hey little brothers, HAPPY SEVENTEENTH!” Claire wakes us up.It’s our birthday! Not the good one, not the one we want it to be, but still our day.“You know you are more annoying now that Nic is gone to training,” Luke tells her.“Oh please, I have always been annoying,” Claire laughs, and tosses gifts at us.Luke opens his and smiles, “Thanks, big sis! I was running low.”He shows me all the really expensive crap he uses in his hair.I open mine and its twelve new blades.“They are already silver,” Claire smiles at me. “Just keep Mable away from them.”“She has learned her lesson,” I tell Claire.“School time, losers, get up,” Claire bounces.“The girls want to go out tonight,” Luke tells me, as we get ready for school.“Yeah, Mable wants to double for dinner, but then split,” I tell him. We look at each other and we are wearing the same shirt. “DUDE!”“Yeah, what the hell?” He asks. We both change quickly. “Never speak of this.”“Right, never,” I repeat.We get to scho
Anna’s POV“Well, one more year and we will no longer be responsible for our children. I see the light at the end of tunnel,” I say as I sit in William’s office. “And you will not meddle in their lives?” He asks me over paperwork. “I have no intention of meddling as you call it. Are their presents ready?” I ask. “Yes, being delivered as we speak. You really think they want their own bedrooms? I mean, they have been in the same room their whole lives. You don’t think they will want to stay that way until they are mated? They are identical, they could share a mate,” William raises his eyebrow. “No, they need their own rooms, they are seventeen, Cullen is actively having sex, I think with Mable DeMur, and Luke has had sex in the past, but I haven’t scented it on him in a while. He must be a in a dry spell,” I shrug. “You worried about Mable DeMur?” William looks at me. “Cullen is strong and wants his mate. Mable will be 18 soon and when she is, she can find her mate. I don’t think
