Ella's POV I sat alone in my room, the weight of what Aiden's said still heavy in my heart. How could he react with such anger and disappointment when he learned that Jayden, his own twin brother, was also my mate? It pained me to see the bond between them fractured, their once unbreakable connection now strained.Leaning against the window sill, and gazing out into the beautiful night sky, I seek solace in the twinkling stars. I need to understand what is going on between them, why their relationship changed so drastically over the years."Lea," I whispered, my voice filled with sadness and confusion. "How did this happen? How did their bond shatter like this?" I heaved, staring blankly at the sky. "They were so close when they were little." I wondered.Lea stirred within me. Her presence was comforting, a soothing presence amidst the chaos of my thoughts."El, we've been gone for a long time, and many things can happen that may bring this changes that have taken place between Aiden
Ella's POV Walking through the corridors of the pack's grand mansion, I was lost in my own thoughts, when Kristy spotted me, she is one of our childhood friends, the five of us were close. Aiden being the silent type and Kristy the carefree and bubbly one who always nags Aiden. Me and Jayden are inseparable, we have much alike, kind, and always good with the elders. And then Caleb, he is well, somewhere in-between, and whenever Aiden refused to play with Kristy he could offer to play with her. But she dislikes playing with him and continues to nag Aiden.She made her way towards me with boxes in her hand that were going to the library. With a smile tugged at the corners of her lips, I smiled back and quickened my pace to catch up with her."Hey, Ris!" I called out, my voice filled with genuine happiness. "Where are you heading? And how was your night?"She replied with a bright grin lighting up her face. "Great! Well, I don't know who or how I ended up in my room. It looks like I got
Ella's POVIt's been a week now, and it's been my daily routine to grab some more books in the library and go to my favourite spot in the garden to search for these books. I picked some by lunchtime, then finished searching for them and grabbed some to check before I went to sleep.Today like any other day, I made my way through the bustling hallways of the packhouse, exchanging warm greetings with familiar faces. The morning air was crisp and invigorating, infusing me with a sense of calm and clarity. As I approached the library, my heart fluttered with anticipation, eager for a new round and hoping to find something useful this time around. Stepping into the library, I inhaled the familiar scent of aged books and the promise of knowledge they held within their pages. My eyes scanned the shelves, searching for titles that piqued my interest. Soon enough, a stack of books accumulated in my arms, their weight a comforting presence.With a contented smile, I exited the library, ready
Ella's POV I head to the alpha office with a sigh, the weight of disappointment settling upon my shoulders. Despite its promises of knowledge, the first volume of the collection had yielded no substantial answers. Frustration gnawed at me, but I refused to let it deter me from my quest.Determined to find a way forward, the corridor seemed longer than usual, as if echoing my own uncertainty. Taking a deep breath, I knocked lightly on the office door."Come in," Alpha's deep voice resonated from within.Pushing the door open, I stepped into the room and found Alpha Brian engrossed in a stack of papers. His piercing gaze met mine, and he set aside his work, offering me a warm smile."Ella, my child, hope you are having a great time?" He asked, smiling warmly at me."Yes Alpha, everyone welcomes me with love. I'm having a good time." I answered respectfully."Good, that's good to hear. I apologise for not spending much time with my daughter, I've been drowned with signing these files."h
Aiden's POVI stepped out of the car in the airport, my heart raced with the thought of another journey alone with Ella. Hoping that Ella would choose to leave with me. That's why when Alpha told me she was going on the mission I refused and excuse myself for being busy, I cleared my schedule and insisted on going with her that minute.Just the two of us together again, I can't help but imagine how we would spend this journey together this time, the memories of the last fresh in my head, making a smile crept its way to my lips, and leaving behind the complexities of the multiple mate bond. I am just eager to come meet her at the airport, and hope to convince her this time.But as I searched for her at the airport, I saw Jayden with her. They were talking about something and had a warm smile in his faces.What the f**king Hell? Why is he here? I felt a pang in my chest, as it tightened more. Am I jealous of him?I just can't see them together without feeling my chest tightened. I notic
Jayden's POVI returned to our seat with our orders just to find El and Aiden all lovey dovey like new couples on their honeymoon. It makes my jaw clenched and my brows furrowed.I Just left for a second and they are courting in the public. They were laughing and exchanging love glances which made El turn beetroot. And I can't help but wonder what they are talking about with their fingers locked, and body pressed together. "Damn it. Damn it. I just can't keep my cool mahn." Jo yelled in my head."Jay, are we just staying calm in situations like this? He is flirting with our mate." He barked."Jo, calm down, she is also his mate, what do you expect? And That HE over there is my TWIN brother." I retorted, he can be cool most of the time, but Jo is stubborn and hard to control at times."Huh, you think I don't know. That's the only reason that Ass of a Hole is still breathing right now." He fumed in anger."I know you are angry but don't you dare call my brother that." I warned."Mate,
Ella's POVWe settled into our seats on the plane, Jayden, sitting close to me, made an effort to engage in small conversation, his words laced with genuine concern. I could feel his presence, his warmth, and it brought a sense of comfort amidst the confusion that swirled within me.I can't help but notice his attention was hundred percent towards me, engaging in small conversations now and then, his care and attention shining through every word and gesture he did. It was as if he was trying to prove his affection and showed that he cared for me just as much as Aiden did to make him jealous.I let out a deep sigh resting my head on back on the seat, the competition between the two of them weighed heavily on my mind, now that I think about it, it started since from the moment we stepped out of the car at the airport to our time spent waiting in the place, and now on the plane, their actions seemed to scream that they were locked in a contest to show who cared for me the most.It was bo
Ella's POVIt was night and the city of Vesas, Jayden and I decided to eat dinner, and then book a suite where we could use to search Edwards with ease. And plan our next steps. I saw Jayden book a luxurious hotel that seemed to offer the comfort and privacy we needed. Sitting at the cosy restaurant nearby, with our plates filled with delicious food before us. It was warm, delicious and inviting, providing us with a brief respite from the whirlwind of emotions that had consumed us throughout the day. Taking my last bite, Jayden glanced up from his meal and met my gaze, his eyes filled with determination. "You done?" He asked while I nodded. "Okay then let's go, we need to search for him with the map I told you earlier, then set up the location." He added standing up.I nodded in agreement, wiping my mouth with a napkin. "You are using your tracking scent, right that's why we need somewhere with privacy away from humans." I asked as we paid for our dinner and left.We made our way to
