Lux When I get home that night, I swear I am on the highest high. Spending the day with Silas was perfection. Bungee jumping was the biggest thrill, and afterwards we went out to eat at a small bistro that neither of us had ever been to. It was a family run place and had little business, so we talked with the owners for a while. They were human and were pretty old, but they talked about how they knew each other as children and went their separate ways at college, but ultimately found their way back to each other. I secretly wonder if maybe the moon goddess, Selene, matched them together, but I felt jealous that Silas and I wouldn’t be able to have the same outcome. I make a mental note though to send them an anonymous donation. It’s obvious they were struggling to stay afloat, and their food was great, and I want to go there again. When Silas brought me to my room, I asked for him to come in. We need to have a proper goodbye without worrying about who could be watching. And as sa

Silas I walk closer to my mate, who is already wrapped up in my brother’s embrace. David is obviously oblivious to what is happening and is caught up in the excitement of finding his mate. Her cheeks burn a crimson red as she looks between the two of us and his face is a mix of shock and realization. He nods slowly to himself as he processes what’s happening and she speaks up first. Her voice is soft as she says, “So, you are both my mates?” David smiles brightly just hearing her voice, and he says, “It certainly appears that way. I’m David.” I nod along, “I’m Silas.” She smiles, and I notice one of her front teeth has the tiniest little chip in it and I’m surprised she hasn’t gotten that fixed. She says, “I’m Charlotte.” Overall, Charlotte is a pretty girl. She is probably 5’2, so she is over a foot smaller than me. She has curly auburn hair that is pulled up into a high ponytail, and she has stunning olive green eyes. A part of me is drawn to her, but I am upset that she is n

Silas I tried not to stare as Apollo took Lux away from the group. I tried to focus on Charlotte and to learn more about her. She is my mate, and I need to know more about her. But it’s difficult when Jax is begging in my mind for us to go check on Lux. One by one, the group disperses and gets smaller until my brother and I take Charlotte to her room. He kisses her cheek and I kiss her hand and we bid her goodnight, promising that we will spend more time with each other tomorrow. We go up to our floor and stay quiet. I think we are both still trying to process this whole having the same mate thing. I wait an hour after we separated, trying to make sure that everyone on our floor was asleep before I slipped out of my room to go see Lux. When I get out of my door, I only make it three steps before I hear David’s voice, “What do you think you’re doing?” I freeze and then turn to see him. His arms are crossed and his face is serious as he scowls at me in disgust. He might be a coupl

Silas I hardly slept last night. Every time I came close to falling asleep, Jax would whimper loudly, letting me know his disappointment at me not seeing Lux. He confuses me... shouldn’t he be happy that I’m not focusing on her? She’s not our mate. Yet, he isn’t even thinking about Charlotte. His only focus is Lux. I look at the time and it’s just past eight and I decide to get up and get dressed. The King let us younger wolves have the morning off of training because of being out late for Lux and Kai’s party and knowing a lot of wolves would probably find their mates. I get dressed quickly as I decide to see Charlotte. Maybe I can have a few minutes with her and get started on building an actual relationship with her. I picked out a pair of jeans along with a short sleeve light green button up. I walk towards her door and felt nervous, but the mate bond draws me closer to her. Butterflies fill my stomach as I bring my hand up and knock on the door. A moment passes. I feel a sli

Lux It’s been a week since I met Apollo and, for the most part, all my days have been filled with him. Occasionally he has a phone call or something pertaining to his pack, and he will leave me so he can go train with the royal warriors, but from the beginning to the end of the day, he has taken up most of my time. I’m surprised when this morning I wake up to Kai, pouncing on my bed. I ask him, startled, “What the hell are you doing?” He announces, “I have a bone to pick with you and your mate, so I came in here early to make sure I made it before he did!” I take a deep breath and have my hand placed over my heart and I ask, “What is this bone you have to pick with me and Apollo?” He huffs, “The boys and I only have you here for so much longer! Why the heck is this guy getting to greet you first thing in the morning, pick out your outfits, and spend all the time with you whenever he’ll get to do that with you for the rest of your lives?! We only get so much time before you’re gone
