//Emily\\The smell of bacon, sausage, egg, and pancake, irritated my nostrils the moment I stepped into the kitchen.I took a moment and sniffed in the delicious smell of breakfast before I walked up to my mom.“ Good morning mom”. I greeted and kissed her cheeks. She was busy on the stove finishing up with breakfast.“ Good morning baby. You are late for training again.” My mom shot a dagger at me, “You know how your father hates lateness.” She stated.“ Sorry mama, I slept late last night. “ I lied between my teeth and managed to make a sad face which earned me some sympathy.“Alright dear! Sleep early next time.”“Sure mom, I will take my leave now. Gamma Trey must be waiting for me.” I murmured and tried to leave against the protest made by my stomach.“ Wait Emily,” I quickly halted and prayed earnestly for her to tell me to eat my breakfast. Before I leave for training.“Finish with breakfast before you leave. You can’t function properly on an empty stomach. ” She giggled and my

//Emily//The rest of the day went by pretty quickly and before I knew, it was evening, and the moon was out, blessing us with its luminous light.I was trembling, barely breathing and completely nervous as the time for the ball got close. With each passing second I got anxious: “Calm down sweetie, everything will be fine by the end of the night. Your mate is going to love you”, my mother said for the tenth time.But I wasn’t reassured.Mate!What if Max isn’t my mate?What if my mate is cocky or a playboy?What if my mate doesn’t want me?What if he rejects me?A lot of what ifs! These thoughts made my skin crawl. My nervousness grew more and more each time these silly thoughts crossed my mind.Don’t get me wrong. I am eager to meet my mate but I couldn’t shake off the eerie feeling in my chest.The night felt wrong. There was a strong sense of an impending doom. But I couldn’t put my fingers on it. I felt like this night will be a total disaster.I shook the idea off and allowed m

//Max//“Fucking shit!” I growled as Bree took my cock into her mouth.She giggled and moaned around me making the nerves around my cock harden.“Shit Bree, suck my dick. Take all of me” I groaned and grabbed her head forcing her on my cock.She gave a seductive moan as she sucked me off with all her strength.Bree is my current and longest girlfriend. We met four years ago at a nightclub in London. I was there to study at a shifters academy.We hit it off immediately and we have been fucking buddies since then. She is a good fucker and knew her way around me.She made our nights together under the sheets a memory to behold. She didn’t want a mate. Neither did I, so we came to a clear term and made our relationship exclusive.My breath became rugged, clouding my thoughts. My eyes rolled back and I stiffened my growl as she deep throated me, taking my cock deep into her mouth.I instantly felt like I would explode at any given second. Just then, my phone rang for the third time this nig

// Zane//“How much time?” I inquired from my driver Nick.“We will be there in five minutes, Alpha”, he answered as he gazed at me through the review mirror.I nodded at his reply and looked out through the tinted glass. It was almost midnight and I was sitting majestically in the back of my car with my brother/beta, Zander in the passenger seat.We are on our way to moonlight pack to be in attendance at the mating ball organized by Alpha Ethan Starling.This was also the opportunity for me to meet his daughter, my future Luna.After the death of my mate and Luna, I’d grown emotionless and cold. It was as if I was barely alive. I became bitter and my hate for rogues grew. I hated them for taking my lovely mate away. For making me a widower at a young age. I wanted revenge for my mate’s death. For my pains and tears. I became a vengeful beast. For four years now, I went on a killing spree every evening, killing rogues. That was the only way I knew how to mourn my mate and my broken

//Emily//**Three days later **To say I had three hellish kind of days will be the understatement of the year. It’s been three days of being to hell and back. Since I accepted Maxwell’s rejection, I was left broken and cold. I have always wanted what my parents have but it seems love was out of my reach. My mom and dad are madly in love with each other.They simply can’t resist each other. They met when my dad visited my mother’s pack in another city for an alliance.They felt the mating bond and couldn’t live without each other ever since then.It’s been over twenty years but their love for each other is stronger more than ever and can be felt by the people around them.But why is mine different?Why was mate disgusted at the sight of me?My parents are lucky to have found each other. They always said meeting your mate is the best feeling in the world and the beginning of true happiness.But, for me, it was the worst experience ever. To think that the one person I was dreaming of,
