//Zane \\I groaned and rolled off Emily feeling completely exhausted and drained. In fact I could barely feel sensation in my legs as I laid flat on my back with my hand resting over my eyes.I tilted to the side staring at the sun that was about to set in the beautiful morning sky. .... fuck. It meant we’ve been at it throughout the night. Though I had muscle ache and was bruised, I felt great. I wanted to stand on top of a mountain and scream to the world saying: “I love you Emily Starling. I could kill for you right now. “Being with her was amazing. This was my first time of being with someone after Davina’s death. Emily didn’t disappoint . She made me feel like a man again.Emily sighed in content beside me as she snuggled into my side, leaned and rested her head on my chest.She had her eyes shut, lost in her sleep and snored softly. I desperately wanted to roll her over and take her the entire day but I had absolutely no energy left in me. So I settled for just staring at her

//Emily \\“ Bella is my mate “ Zander repeated himself .I was speechless. The girl I encountered at my introduction ceremony didn’t give a vibe of someone who has a mate rather, she sounded like Zane’s jealous mistress “We heard you the first time.” Zane huffed doubtfully “How is she your mate? You turned eighteen three years ago and the last time I heard you were still looking for your mate”“ I found her three years ago. It‘s Bella ““ That can’t be … Bella had been trying to get my attention for years”“I know that Zane. She rejected me three years back ““ Then she is not your mate . You accepted the rejection right? “Zane looked skeptically at Zander.“ No I didn’t, I couldn’t do it” he stated with an unbearable pain in his voice “ why didn’t you tell me …us?” Zane’s eyes flashed with a new emotion, guilt and regret.“ I was embarrassed to” Zander’s tone was solemn.“ Embarrassed??” Zane looked at Zander in disbelieve “what about now?”“ Zane, I want you to ask something of

//Unknown \\“What? What do you mean he has found another woman?” I asked in a demanding tone.My mother’s words were not making any sense to me.“He is smitten with her, dear. If you don’t come back now, you will lose him forever. He banished us from the pack just by speaking against her. Who knows what he will do for now that she is marked” my dad commented.“He has marked her!”I was confused. How can Zane love another woman? Zane and I are mates. We were paired by the moon goddess but we never completed the mating ceremony.We had sex and all but I prevented him from marking me. I didn’t want to be claimed by him but we were mates nevertheless. He adored me. He used to look at me as if I was his entire universe. His world. He worshipped the ground I walk on.From a distance, I saw how broken and dejected he was after I staged my death.I had never seen any man look so pathetic and lost as Zane, in the last four years.So what do they mean by he has found a replacement. He has cla

//Emily \\“Is that an album!”“Yes it is” she giggled and pulled it out of it’s hiding place as she opened it.“Zane will kill me for showing you this! He is probably the caring and loving son. He has always been the family’s protector even at a young age. Mira and Zander! Not so much. “ she smiled flapping through old album and running her hands over the pictures.And showing me the most embarrassing pictures she had of Zane and Zander. I swear the pictures were hilarious.“This one is my favorite “ she giggled “Is that Zane and Zander??” my eyes widened. She nodded pointing to a picture of a six year old Zane and about three year old Zander dressed in a feminine clothes with their hair held into two high ponytail.They looked so adorable and looked like girls. I giggled at the picture.“Before Mira was born. I wanted a girl . It was so bad that I couldn’t help it but dress my sons up like girls. Ohh.... Emily, you should have seen them. They were so beautiful and girly. The first

//Zane\\“Is this the place ?” I asked Alaric when we got to a clearing few meters from the pack border.“Yes Alpha “ he answered “ she was standing there, between these two large trees”I walked around the area sniffing the air to check if my sense of smell could pick any foreign scent. But I got nothing.I glance back at Alaric “There is nothing here, Alaric. I am beginning to wonder... how exactly did she escape you? She is a human for gods sake”“I swear to you, Zane. She was here. Right there staring at me.” Alaric stated sternly. He was nervous. He didn’t want to be seen as a liar. But I believe he saw something.I exhaled and walked further into the woods, that was when my nose picked up a coconut smell. Davina?This scent wasn’t new to me. It smelled just like her .My heart began to increase in beats as I strolled following the scent, when my eyes found something.The one thing I never thought I will see again. It laid on the floor shining brightly in the dark woods. It was t
