Prologue

- - Prologue - - THREE YEARS AGOBrax’s pov"So, can I have a hug to say goodbye?" Airk asked me."Sure," I replied, opening my arms. Airk moved his small frame towards mine and placed his head against my chest."I’ll miss you."It felt right to hold him, but it shouldn’t. Airk was only fifteen, and I was eighteen and unmated. Perhaps in time we would find out we were mates, but speculating about future mates is something my mother always warned me about.At the White Claw pack where I grew up after we left home, it wasn’t allowed to speculate about mates. You weren’t permitted to date anyone without a wolf, once you turned eighteen, either. You wouldn’t want to risk someone falling for you before they met their true mate.Of course, people still dated in secret, but it was much easier to get my freak on once I turned eighteen six months ago. I had experimented with whoever seemed interesting. I didn’t want to limit myself to just one gender; I could find something attractive in almo

1. Alpha Brax

Brax’s povIt’s been two years since I took over the Blood Rock pack, and a lot has changed. Not everything I wanted to achieve was accepted right away; it took some convincing and even some shouting and violence for everyone to see eye to eye with me and the vision I have for this pack.Those that benefited from my changes were more willing to accept them than those that didn’t.‘You mean all the old and rich folks?’ My wolf, Hudson, replied sarcastically.Yeah, those. People might have assumed I would rule this pack like my father did. While I had learned from my father, I wasn’t going to follow in his footsteps. I was grateful for what he had taught me, though. I learned from him how not to run a pack.He thought women were weak and inferior, and I had chosen a female beta to rule by my side. He had valued the rich over the poor, and I was making sure that everyone had equal opportunity in this pack. Ranks still existed, but they didn’t limit my members. I wasn’t basing my decision

2. The Blood Rock Pack

Argo’s pov "I’ve talked with mom, and we both agree it would be a great idea if you both went to spend summer break at the Blood Rock Pack." Dad said to me and my brother. "You’re fucking joking." There was no way in hell I was leaving right now. Things with Hazel were just starting to look up. Why both Isaac and I fell for the same girl is beyond me. He never liked the same type of girl as I did. He wanted to be intellectually stimulated, whatever the fuck that meant. Isaac is a nerd, but he’s my best friend. Me, my twin brother Airk, and Isaac form an unbreakable bond. We were raised together and lived in the same house for years. But now a girl has gotten in between us. Thank the fuck, I don’t have to worry about that with Airk. He’s as gay as can be. "We’re not fucking joking," mom replied. "First of all, Elora is weeks away from giving birth, and you’ll probably be too busy with school to be able to visit when he’s here. I don’t want you missing school anymore; you’re already

3. Better Safe than Sorry

Brax's pov"Can’t they come another time?" I asked my beta, Elora."No, they have summer break now, and they haven’t seen me in months. I don’t get your problem anyway. You used to get along just fine." Elora replied, wiggling her eyebrow suggestively.I loved my beta like a little sister, but she was way too observant sometimes and really noisy.‘You can tell her the truth,’ my wolf Hudson advised, but I ignored him.Elora is the sister of our ally, Alpha Aeryn, and has two brothers. A set of twins that couldn’t be any different. They looked differently, they acted differently, and they loved differently.I wasn’t worried about seeing Argo; it was the shy Airk that had me worried. We had shared a few moments when I trained to become Alpha at the Iron River pack, but he was fifteen at the time.The twins were seventeen now, and in a few months they’d get their wolves and be able to find their mates.It had been a little over two years, and we only flirted a bit, but Airk had not left

4. Pretty Boy

Mila’s povI was seven when I left here. Mom hadn’t been back here; it had been too painful, but I wanted to support my big brother. He was trying to do something good, and the pack was doing a lot better than it was before he took over.Alpha Brax, I laughed to myself. Our father had been adamant about naming Brax after himself. Braxton. And now, Brax has never used his full name. Where Brax was kind, funny, and compassionate, Dad had been mean, selfish, and brutal.Our father had this idea that women were less than men, and he was so threatened by the idea of a female alpha that he hired someone to kill Alpha Aeryn when she was six. Yeah, I wasn’t kidding when I called him brutal.Who in their right mind pays someone to kill a little girl?!But Daddy Dearest was double-crossed, and they never killed Aeryn. Instead, they took her and her sister and sold them to a school. The same school where my mom was bought from. The whole thing was so messed up that it could fill a whole book. Bu

5. Obsessed

Airk’s povFor literally two years, I have been in love with Brax. Or,obsessed, as some call it. Sometimes you just know you want something, or in this case, someone, and you’ll do anything to get it.I’m not crazy, and if Brax didn’t want me or rejected my advances, I’d give up eventually. But he never told me he didn’t want me. Brax said I was too young when I was fifteen, and even now, when he says he only has casual relationships, he doesn’t tell me he doesn’t want me.I’m not dumb. I know I can’t magically make him fall in love with me. But there is a connection between us, and while he refuses to talk about mates, I know in my heart he is mine.So I’ll take things slow. I’ll pretend not to care as much as I do. Anything to be with him for these few weeks.That kiss alone was enough. Seriously, if I went home now, I would be happy with just that kiss.I scoffed, thinking about my brother and his stupid remark. Argo told me he didn’t do anything with Hazel except kiss. As if a kis

6. Assistent

Mila’s pov Did Argo really think he could swoop in and take over the whole training ground? I had been training here every morning and sometimes afternoon since I got here. Besides, Brax deserved some alone time with Airk. At the Silver Claw pack, we celebrated coming of age in a big way, especially since I was part of the Alpha’s family. Not just with a fancy dress party, where we would wear ball gowns and suits, but also with a competition between all the seventeen-year-olds that hadn’t gotten their wolf yet. Four times a year, there would be a tournament between all the seventeen-year-olds that would be getting their wolf that year. And it so happened that a few days before my birthday, another tournament would start. It was a way to prove your strength and skill, to show that even as a human, you were strong. And then, once you got your wolf, there was a chance to prove yourself against the older wolves. Mom didn’t want me to join the tournament because she was scared I would

7. A tent

Argo’s pov "So you’re working together? I thought you hated her." Airk asked me, meeting me inside my bedroom before we went to bed. We used to share a room when we were kids, and when we got older, we got our own rooms, but we always used to talk before we went to bed. It may sound cheesy, and it may be a twin thing, but it's nice to discuss our day together. Even if I spent the night with someone, I would always send Airk a few text messages. "I do fucking hate her, but keep your friends close and your enemies closer, right?" I joked. "Nah, but she’s not horrible at fighting, and this way I don’t have to do all the little things I hate. I wouldn’t mind being a gamma if it weren't for the fucking bullshit. Training I love; the rest, not so much." Airk raised his eyebrow and sat on my bed, saying, "So you’re using her." "No, I made a fucking deal. I’ll train her if she helps me." Airk still seemed unsure: "You could have asked anyone." "No, the rest are soldiers that need to foc

8. Secret

Airk’s pov When Brax offered to show me and Argo around yesterday, I thought it would be just the three of us. So when Argo decided not to go, I thought Brax and I would have some alone time. However, it was dumb of me to assume this since we were headed to a packhouse that was under construction. Of course there would be workers, and, goddess, there were many workers at the packhouse. So much for some alone time. So the next day, when we got to work together, I was sure there wouldn’t be time for me to get close to Brax again. It was still nice to do this with Brax, though. Mostly because he looked absolutely amazing in his sleeveless shirt as he carried beams from one part of the house to the next. “You’re drooling,” Brax said with a wink, and I blushed, realizing he noticed I was staring. “You’re too good-looking,” I replied, trying my best to flirt with Brax. Our first kiss was luck or bravery, but I wasn’t sure what I was doing. Having no experience with flirting or kissing,

9. Just the Two of Us.

Brax’s povWhat was I doing?‘He could be our chosen,’ Hudson said, and I shut that thought down right away.My wolf was delusional if he thought I would put Airk in that position. Chosen mates were rare, and he wasn’t even eighteen. Once he met his mate, he would be forced to reject him so he could be with me, and I couldn’t do that to Airk. Rejecting something was like denying a piece of yourself, and people described the feeling of rejecting it as dying. And if Airk ended up choosing his mate over me, I'd be left heartbroken. Besides, we were just having fun, right?‘No, you’re not just having fun, idiot.’ Hudson growled.Then I should end it before it gets out of control.But I didn’t end it. Once he kissed me, I knew I couldn’t stay away from him, even if I tried. I made a stupid contract, trying to protect my feelings and those of Airk. Of course I was scared of Airk’s family, but that wasn’t the reason why I was keeping us a secret. It was because I didn’t want my pack to see me
