All Chapters of Groom Switch (Twin Prophecy book 1): Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Lucian My mate has been wrestling with what we learned from Dane for days now. She’s shut me out completely, refusing to let me help her push through this blockage. I keep telling myself she needs to handle things in her own way, on her own terms, but standing by and doing nothing while she fights alone is its own kind of torture. Every morning since that run, I’ve felt the weight of it. And that afternoon, when her howl tore through the forest, we all heard the raw power in it. It shook something in me. When she finally came back, she looked calmer, lighter, even, but beneath that peace was something still twisting inside her, something she was trying to hide. And knowing she’s hurting, while I’m forced to watch from the sidelines, is slowly eating me alive. Every time I thought back about seeing her sad face and that single tear down her cheek my anger fueled, I punched the bag harder and stronger making it rattle on the chain, jaw tight I kept on punching until my breath cam

Lukan He felt her pain. It hit him hard and fast before he heard her howl. It was strong, and there was a change to this one, meaning someone is about to die. He dropped the papers and ran out of the house straight into the forest. The bond was pulsing under his skin, drawing him toward her. His wolf was restless, urging him to get to their mate. She was in danger. We need to get there fast. The second his reach was, she should've been the smell of blood hit his nose, he saw the first body, and his heart almost gave out, the bond was still strong, and pulling at him meant she was alright, he just had to find her. I can only hope so. My vision blurred as a growl tormented my throat, low and violent. I could feel she was fighting and not giving up. The taste of my metal in my mouth, whether or not it was hers or mine, I didn't care. All I needed was to get to her. Her heartbeat flicked in my mind like a rapid signal. Uneven through the bond, I could feel her stubbornness. Sh

Lukan🐺The pack house was quiet as everyone was tucked deep in their bed, the sun hadn't quite gotten up in the sky yet, on this beautiful morning I should be lying next to my mate in bed enjoying her scent but no my mind won't shut up long enough to let me enjoy the morning next to her, instead it kept thinking about the boxes we took from the hunters camp, with no other choice I made my way to that room and starts digging though the boxes. In the midst of it all, I find that the Midnight Pack Alpha was a council elder. He was the one in charge of the hunters during his time. There were a lot of documents with their lack seals on them, orders to take packs out, pay out to other Alphas for their silence, and illegal raids that resulted in innocent people dying. The more I read, the more the sick feeling in my belly grows. These people who swear to protect us turn out to be the monsters, using their titles as a cover to do their dirty work. I was d

Lukan Breakfast used to be my only escape, but today it was a heavy one. Knowing that Lucian was coming to talk about what we had found out, I had him caught up on everything. I took a sip of my tea as he walked in and sat across from me before saying, “ Would it kill you to have coffee once in a while?” he was already judging. “ Would it kill you to drink some tea every once in a while?” I throw back at him. We had a silent breakfast as we gathered our thoughts; none of us wanted to be the one to break the silence and say what was on our minds. We sat across from one another, the bond between us tight and painful with the reminder of what lies beneath it. “I won't fight you,” I say quietly, breaking the silence. Lucian looks at me. “It's not your choice alone, I'm part of that decision too.” “ I don't care, I'm not going to play in the Council games, they will not win! “ I told him. Lucian laughed a cold one, “You think saying that gives you a choice, it doesn't! T

Lukan The next morning me and my wolf were both restless, the night were sleepless, so that morning before dawn i walked out of the house and into the forest letting the green trees swallow me, the quiet morning made it even better to get some fresh air to clear my mind, with no weapons, with no warriors just me and my wolf in nature, i need a moment to get my thoughts of the Council, the curse and the fact that my mate is going through her own struggle in order before i do something i cant take back. With an unsettled thought, the shift ripped through me like second nature, bones cracking, white fur exploded around me, and a big white wolf tore through the forest with paws, hitting the ground with strong force, spilling around him. This is what freedom feels like. Hours passed, the sun was hiding behind some trees before fully taking over the sky, I ran around the border, doing a perimeter patrol to make sure everything was in order, jumping over fallen logs, running after
