Twisted Mates. FREEDOM OF TRANSFORMATION
His eyes stared back at him. He curled his lips back and snarled at himself. White fangs flashed on the metalHe was a wolf, a 130-pound wolf with pale blond fur or, safe to say, white fur because they were the pure breed. The only part of him that remained were his eyes, sparking with a cold intelligence and a simmering ferocity that could never be mistaken for anything but human. But now, they were more advanced than humans because they were sharper and could see through anything.He looked around, inhaling the scents of the city again. He was nervous there. Feeling threatened and exposed. It was too close to where anyone could see a lost animal and raise an alarm because it reeked of humans. He must be careful to find out whatever triggered his wolf apart from his healing process. If he was seen, he would be mistaken for a dog, a large mixed breed. A dog that size wouldn't be seen as cute at all. It was a threat.He headed for the back of the laneway and sought a path through the h
Twisted Mates. BACK TO JAKE
Finally, Freya arrived at her fiancée's apartment. Entering the house, she met a very anxious Jake, who had worry and sadness written all over his face."I can't believe you hired guards to search for me," Freya nagged, throwing her arms around Jake's neck. "I am sorry," she apologized before drowning him in a pool of passionate kisses. They only broke it off when both of them were panting out of suffocation.Jake was speechless. Only staring deep into Freya's eyes and holding her shoulders like she was a fragile thing that would shatter if he let go.Jake cupped her face, rubbing his thumbs along her cheekbones. Not speaking, just gazing down into her eyes. "Are you hurt?" He finally managed to ask."Not at all. How about you?" Freya asked, leading Jake to an empty couch. "Are you hurt?""No." Sighing, "what was all that? Who was the guy and why did you run off?" Jake bombarded her with questions."Did Dante hurt anyone else?" Freya asked, her anger rising. She knew Dante didn't leave
Twisted Mates. THE ATTACK
Dante might not have gotten exposed to the outside world, but, Alpha Hero made it important for him to learn about earth and every aspect of it, including the part he is in. He knew that his kind was an abomination to most individuals, except those who understood the history and took interest in shifters. If he has been faced with life-threatening exposure to danger from undocumented wolves, that means that he wasn't safe and news about his fate had gone out. So many would want to seize that opportunity to overthrow him. Then the rest will see him as weak and try to ally with his enemies. That is why his absence was kept secret. If this happened to him, that means even his inner circle was faulty and no one could be trusted.Nearly half an hour later, he was standing at the crest of a hill. His nose twitched, picking up the vestiges of an illegal leaf fire smoldering in a nearby yard.The wind bristled through his fur, chill, nearly cold, invigorating. Above him, traffic thundered acro
Twisted Mates. POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE EMOTIONS
As the second wolf flew free, the first launched itself at Dante's face. Ducking his head, he caught it in the throat, but Dante's teeth clamped down on fur instead of flesh, and it squirmed away. It tried to back off for a second lunge, but Dante, out of aggression, leaped at it, backing it into a tree. It reared up, trying to get out of his way. He slashed for its throat. This time he got his grip. Blood spurted in his mouth, salty and thick. The first wolf landed on Dante's back. His legs buckled. Teeth sunk into the loose skin beneath his skull. Fresh pain arced through him.Concentrating hard, he kept his grip on the first wolf's throat. He steadied himself, then released it for a split second, just long enough to make the fatal slash and tear. As he pulled back, blood sprayed into his eyes, blinding him. He swung his head hard, ripping out the coyote's throat. Once he felt it go limp, he tossed it aside, then threw himself on the ground and rolled over. The wolf on Dante's back r
Twisted Mates. IF THERE WAS FOREVER...
After a brief nap, Freya stood and went to get ready. Today, she has made up her mind to enjoy it, putting all her worries aside. All she knew was Jake and every memorable moment they were going to spend together.A long soothing bath followed by careful application of ointment was enough to take away the long, stressful, and scary night she experienced. The truth was, briefly, she forgot about what the Moon Goddess had said concerning Freya's wolf. She must clear her mind, body, and soul to give way to her time with Jake.Freya strolled into her built-in walk-in closet to choose a sexy outfit. Without stressing, her eyes landed on a nude-sleeveless-sheer cocktail gown with a Queen Anne's neck that cut all the way down to the belly button. The breast region was decorated with silver, which went down in a single lane to form a flower pattern around the waist.Inhaling a large amount of air that made her blood pump, she stretched her hand and ran it all over the long gown, feeling its sm
Twisted Mates. SEEKING REFUGE
When Dante alighted from the lonely alley in Oklahoma for the second time, the sky was already clearing to give way for morning to take over. The air was icy cold. His body ached as a result of being mercilessly engaged in life-threatening battles throughout the night. To add to that, he was wearing unsuitable walking shoes. Unlike on his previous visit, no purpose would have driven him to stay. But now, he had no choice. That meant that bad walking shoes were the least of the problem at hand.Before the passing of Alpha Hero, he had told Dante that there was a name he could always run to at whatever time he found himself in the human. He only mentioned the name, Emerson Declan, to him. This was the only person Dante fought so hard to contact. Aside from him, he was stranded in the human world. Already, Dante kept enough resources to sustain him, knowing fully well that he was coming back again after his first visit. What was expected of the only child and future Alpha of the stronges
Twisted Mates. LONELY JOURNEY
After what felt like forever, the cab finally came to a stop."We are here," the cabbie announced.Dante peered around the surrounding from the window. It was remote and kind of away from the city. "Where?""You said the nearest resting place," he said with a big smile plastered on his face.Dante's anger spiked immediately. Things like this made him lose absolute control. "Don't tempt me. I am pretty confident that I made my statement clear. I need a hotel, not this remote environment. Is this a joke or what?"Frowning, "not to me. Please step down and pay up the can fare. I have to continue my daily business."Dante had already lost all will of arguing further. With so much frustration, he got down from the cab and paid the cabman."Have a nice day," the cabman greeted, earning a dreadful glare from Dante.He did not feel like struggling with heavy suitcases, so, he decided to get whatever he was going to need over here. Packing from his Alpha house would have been suspicious to the
Twisted Mates. JITTERY
Jake was quiet for a minute after Freya mentioned him keeping secrets. Probably, he was equally having thought about Freya's numerous secrets which he had been patient with. None of them was a saint on this matter. They both had a hidden skeleton.They were stuck in midday traffic on Ring-Road Avenue. Freya kept her face glued to the window, watching the different tall buildings and individuals going about their daily business pass by as she sat, lost in her thoughts.She couldn't figure out whether it was good luck or bad that Dante had reappeared shortly before her engagement. It was making her uneasy. For Dante to step out of his comfort zone and meet her in Oklahoma couldn't be a coincidence. He hated to be away from where he was in charge. So, why here?On Jake's side, he had feelings and people he was worried about dealing with. This was one of the little reasons Freya loved him. Amidst the wealth, smoking-hot-body and power, he still had issues. It made him seem too human. The
