OsbornI walk around Alita’s party as I search for my mate. It very quickly becomes obvious that she isn’t here.Girl’s flood toward me like always. Each one batting their eyes and asking if I’d want to dance and sometimes letting out this annoying, fake, high-pitched giggle.My mate isn’t here and goddess, I hope when I finally meet her that she doesn’t act like that!It’s been three fucking years that I’ve been searching for her. It feels like finding her is impossible.Anger floods through me, where the hell is she?I walk upstairs and go to the office. I pull out a map of our pack and start looking up information on how my dad currently has the patrols running. My dad has been too lenient when it comes to rogues.I won’t be.Starting tomorrow, the pack will be undergoing some changes.I grab out another map to see which packs I’ve visited recently and which ones we have good relationships with. I need to travel and find my mate, but any pack we don’t have good relationships with,
OsbornMy dad gave me the Alpha title this morning. Although I can tell that he was hesitant to do it, I’m grateful that he did it.I’ve spent most of my day looking over the packs I intend to conquer and then I’m going to take a patrol shift tonight. I’ve already announced that we will have zero tolerance with rogues and I want to make sure that the patrol is following my orders so I plan to randomly go on runs to see if they can follow my instructions.The only weird thing about today is I’ve noticed that my family hasn’t come around me since my dad officially handed over the title this morning. I try not to let it bother me, I’ve put them at arm’s length, I shouldn’t be surprised when they don’t want to be around me anymore.I breathe out as I leave the office and lock it behind me, I want to make sure that no one can snoop through my things.I rush outside and shift into my wolf, Belos, he breathes in the fresh air and shakes out his fur, happy to be released.He runs around the p
PeelleI open the cells and smell a mix of rose and jasmine. My eyebrows furrow softly as I follow the scent and I see a naked girl sitting on the floor in her cell.Her fiery red hair has gray streaks in it and her eyes snap up to me and she scrambles backwards backing herself into a corner.She’s beautiful, and… she’s my mate.How is this possible? Osborn and I have the same mate?!He’s going to be angry; I just know it.I crouch down and hold my hands up and say, “Hey, I’m not here to hurt you. I just want to talk. I’m going to find you something to wear, and I’ll be right back and if it’s okay with you… I’ll come inside, okay?”She glances up at me and I notice her amber colored eyes before she looks back at the floor. I breathe out as I walk out of the cells. She looked skinny; a bit too skinny like she hasn’t had a proper meal. I don’t know what her height is because I never saw her standing, but maybe she’ll fit something of Alita’s?I rush back home where Alita is still playin
OsbornI pace back and forth in my room. My stomach churns and I feel like I could be sick after my encounter with that… rogue.How could the moon goddess pair me with a fucking rogue?! I’ve never been more furious in my life. This has to be some kind of cosmic joke.Anger floods through my veins and I have to let it out somehow and I end up punching a hole in my wall. I stare at the hole; I’ve never been angry enough to hit something like that. Normally, if I want to hit something I’ll go to the gym and use a punching bag, or I would go to a training.I huff as I run my hands through my hair, tugging at the ends. I never do this, it makes my hair disheveled, and now I have to remember to fix it before I go back out.There’s a knock on my door and I huff, “Not now!”The door opens and I grit my teeth as I force myself not to punch whoever just came in. My brother’s voice causes me to freeze as he says, “We need to talk, Osborn.”I turn to face Peelle and his arms are crossed and he lo
EdaI watch as Peelle starts cutting up fresh fruits for me. They look exotic and I wouldn’t be able to tell you what they are.He passes me a bowl and says, “Here, you can snack on that while I cook. Now, I’m not the best cook ever but I can make some damn good French toast. What do you think of that?”I nod slowly as I say, “Sure.”I wonder what makes toast French, but I’m sure it’ll taste just like the normal dark brown or black toast I’m used to receiving. I hear a woman’s voice as she says, “Peelle’s famous French toast? Count me in!”A younger girl yells, “Ooh, me too!”I turn to look at them and I see an older woman with her daughter walk into the room. They both stopped and stared at me, and the older woman said, “Um… hi? Peelle, are you going to introduce me to your friend here?”Peelle comes to my side and says, “Eda, this is my mom, Claudia and my sister, Alita. Mom, Alita, this is my mate, Eda.”My eyes widen from the fact he was already introducing me to his family. Soon,
EdaI’m unable to sleep, this is all so unbelievable.I pace around the large room; I’ve never seen a bedroom this large. Mine and my mom’s room was the size of the bathroom here. My mom will be elated when she finds out that I’m mated to the Alpha of a pack.My mom wasn’t always a rogue. She and her parents got banished from a pack long before I was born because her dad had revolted against the Alpha and my mom kept trying to become his Luna even though he was mated to someone else.I never met my grandparents. My mom never talked about what happened that caused them to separate. But soon she was found by Master Wraith, and he took her in, and she has lived as one of his slaves ever since.She did the best she could to raise me and keep me safe, but she was a bitter woman. She criticized me for my looks and there were days I would go unfed. I still don’t know if she did that because we didn’t have enough to eat or if it’s because she thought I needed to lose weight.Although I know s
PeelleI love spending time with Eda.Being in her presence is addicting. Her scent, her smile, her laugh, all of it is just so perfect.She told me random things about her life. Her mom and her did odd jobs and hunted a lot to stay afloat, she didn’t know who her father was, and her mom has been a rogue her whole life. She says, “It’s weird being in a packhouse and seeing how others have lived their whole lives… it’s just… hard to imagine.”I nod as I take her hand and tell her, “That makes sense, it’s a bit of a culture shock.”Eda nods her head and I ask, “So, would you be interested in becoming a part of the pack? You don’t have to be a rogue anymore. You have opportunities now that you might have had before.”She looks at me with wide eyes l say, “You don’t have to make any decisions now, Eda. I just want you thinking about it. Would you be interested in school? Or would you just want to focus on learning what will be expected of you as a Luna.”Her eyebrows furrow and says, “I’v
PeelleI was practically shaking in anger as I left Eda and went to go confront my brother. I can’t believe the way that he has treated her, and she doesn’t deserve it!If he would just give her a chance, then he would know that she isn’t a threat to our pack.I walk into his room and before he can say anything I say, “Look, I know we’re not close. I know that I’m not your favorite person or whatever, but this girl, Eda, is both of our mates. You can’t storm in acting like you own her whenever you haven’t even tried to spend any time with her!”He stared at me and didn’t say a word. It made me angry to see that he didn’t even have a response to his behavior. I run my hands through my hair, tugging on the ends as I ask, “Do you even realize the affect you have on her?”When he doesn’t answer I can’t help but curse. What is wrong with him?I say, “Osborn, you’ve looked for this girl for freaking years! What is wrong with you? I thought you would treat her well because you seemed so desp
