Semua Bab The Alpha Twins; My Mates: Bab 41 - Bab 50

The next morning was the day of the pack run, and Tate and Hayes were leading it. Everyone had shifted into their wolf form except for me. Tate pulled me aside as soon as I arrived, telling me not to shift. The advisory council was in the pack once again, and it seemed they weren't ready to reveal that I was a chosen warrior wolf like my dad.Pack runs were usually the best part of living in a pack. It was mandatory for all youths to attend. I ran in my human form, and to my surprise, I saw Asia fall in line beside me."Good morning," she beamed, wearing a matching set of black sports shorts and a bra, the same brand I was wearing. "Morning," I replied. She went on to apologize for the comments she made the night before and expressed how bad she felt when I left. She even mentioned feeling guilty when the boys scolded her about her behavior. "It's okay," I murmured, not wanting to engage with her any longer. We fell into a quiet rhythm for a while until she started asking me question

I tried calling Henry back, but his phone was off. I will try to call again tomorrow, I thought. I felt a wave of fatigue wash over me. I quickly showered and then succumbed to a long, much-needed nap. When I finally stirred awake, it was already thirty minutes past four. I went straight to the kitchen.Granny was already bustling about, her apron tied neatly around her waist as she prepared for dinner. The rich aroma of herbs filled the air, instantly making my stomach rumble. "Can I help?" I asked, my voice filled with enthusiasm as I stepped into the warm kitchen.She turned to me, eyebrows raised in a mixture of surprise and curiosity. "You want to help?" she asked slowly, gauging me.I nodded eagerly. Cooking had always been a bit of a mystery to me. Despite my enthusiastic attempts, I had never quite mastered the art. "Okay, start peeling the potatoes," she ordered. I rushed to do that. I struggled with the peeler. Grandma watched me intently, often flinching and frowning. "Eno

Hayes gently grasped my hand, bringing it to his lips for a soft, lingering kiss that sent a warm flutter racing through my heart. I could feel the warmth of his touch. I momentarily lost myself in the moment. 'Your heart is drumming so loud, I'm sure he can hear it,' Ria said. I tried to keep my emotions in check. I distracted myself from his intense gaze by glancing around the crowd, searching for Zylon. He was nowhere to be found, leaving a sense of unease in the pit of my stomach."Where's Zylon?" I asked as he led me to the bar area inside. People moved aside, either intimidated by him or showing respect. The werewolves bowed their heads as we passed."One twin isn't enough for you, love?" he smirked. His playful tone broke through my apprehension."No," I said. Upon reaching the bar, he suddenly grabbed my waist and hoisted me onto a stool."A Long Island iced tea, please," I told the waiter. "Coming up, beautiful," he winked. Hayes tightened his hands around my waist and kiss

Hayes frowned as he looked me up and down, disapproval evident on his face. For today's training, I wore the high-rise shorts and matching sports bra that Beth had gifted me from a brand she worked with."Like what you see, Alpha?" I smirked."I do, very much, but I don't appreciate all my men seeing you like that. Only we should," he replied, glancing at the men surrounding us. Hayes glared at them, and they quickly lowered their gazes."Let's do this," I said, positioning myself in a fighting stance.Hayes was strong, but I had my advantages against him. In fact, I had a secret weapon that would ensure I could pin him down for five seconds. I felt confident about this duel.'Our strong mate will win—just look at those big, strong arms and hands,' Ria purred. 'I will win. I want to know why Zylon has been absent. Why does he need time away from everything? Does it have to do with Asia?' I knew I shouldn't pry and should respect his boundaries, but my curiosity got the better of me.W

Zylon, It has now been three days since our mate chose to accept the bond we share, and I couldn't be happier. However, she has been sulking ever since we disagreed about her having a personal bodyguard. We anticipated her resistance; it's in her nature. It pains me to see her unhappy when all I want is to shield her from harm. I hope she soon realizes that what we are doing is not to control her but to keep her safe.I went to her bedroom to knock, but she didn't open the door. She has been avoiding both me and Hayes. When we see her at training, she doesn't acknowledge us and only talks to her friends. They have been visiting her a lot lately, and none of them speak to us either. It's so rude. My wolf scoffed, 'They're all so childish.''Hayes did call her a brat,' I recalled the words he had thrown in her direction. She had every right to be upset, but why was I caught in the crossfire of this storm. Gripping the bouquet in my hand, I finally laid it against her door. I had stru
