AIDENI watched as Zion tried to change the subject and not talk about who he has been sleeping with. Usually when he is involved with someone, he can’t wait to tell me all about it. But now he was being secretive, which made me wonder what was special about this she-wolf.But I didn’t call him out on it, instead, I entertained what he was saying. “What made you want to throw a mating ball, are you looking for your mate?” he shook his head too quickly like finding his mate didn’t matter. “Not that but it had been decades since we last had one and that has made it difficult for most of us to find our mates.”He sighed; I knew where he was coming from. All the social gatherings like that were stopped because of alpha Harold and now that he was gone. Everyone could go back to normal, living normal lives like attending gatherings like the mating ball Zion was talking about.“For example, if we didn’t go to the Moon pack that day then you wouldn’t have found your mate. Don’t get angry its
AIDENI stood there fuming in anger, not because my mate was sleeping with my brother or because I had feeling for her. No, but because my brother didn’t tell me about it. Was he in love with her or was this a game. I needed I know what this was to him. Was he helping me punish her, using her then leaving her because of everything her family did to me, to all of us?I doubt that is the case, because if it was, he would have told me about what he was doing. Let me in on his plan. But he didn’t and it makes me doubt he was playing games with her. The smile on his face when I told him that I wanted nothing to do with her. He was happy that I didn’t want her. he was happy because he is in love with her.I chuckled; they must think I am a fool. An omega greeted and passed but I called her back. “Yes, beta Aiden.” I looked at her but not at her. I was thinking while my eyes were on her. “Who is in charge of my mate?” I know Zion assigned an omega to her from the first day she got here. “It’
AIDENI didn’t want to attend the damn mating ball, but I had to. I am the beta of the pack hosting the damn thing and the turnout is good. Many people have arrived already, and the venue looks beautiful. They have done a great job with the preparations and am sure the people attending were happy to get out of their packs for the first time in a long time. And they got an excuse to dress up.I was still getting dressed in my room, I had to make sure that the security is sorted before everything else, we were responsible for many people after all, and we cannot risk anything happening. Someone knocked on my door and before I could invite them in, the door opened, and the person came in.It was Zion. I didn’t say a thing, I just continued to dress, he and I have nothing much to talk about these days since he is making a fool out of me and sleeping with that woman every chance he gets. “Brother, you are not done? Jake is asking for us, he says he is tired of smiling and receiving people
ZIONI was planning on standing at the door with Aiden receiving our guests. But as soon as we got there, I caught this intoxicating scent, I tried to ignore it but it was impossible to. I asked if Aiden and the old man could smell it too, but they didn’t. My wolf was restless all of a sudden coming to life and giving me a headache.I was worried about security and if his excitement meant we had a problem. Then I needed to know what that problem was and deal with it as soon as possible. I walked away from Aiden and the old man when they said they didn’t smell anything. I could not just sit still and do nothing. I followed the scent all the way to the dance floor and there she was.Beautiful long blond hair that sat right on top of a butt. Long legs, fair skin, she was gorgeous. She must have smelled my scent because she turned and looked in my directions. Our eyes locked and the world stopped. The people faded away and it seemed like
AIDENMy mate looked like she was going to die and even wanted to go and intervene when Zion found his mate. But of course, I stopped her right in time before she made a fool of herself and me in the process. But it was clear that my brother had deep feelings for my mate. The way he looked when she disappeared, he wanted to go after her.Zion was playing with fire, but it was good to watch him in this predicament. I wanted to see how long he was going to hide his affair with my mate from his and what he was going to do when she found out about them. Oh Broke, I feel sorry for you. That smile of yours will soon turn into a frown and I can’t wait to see what you are going to do about that.“Brother, why don’t you go call your mate. I want to introduce her to Broke here.” Sly fox you, Zion. You must think me a fool brother, but I am not. Far from it. “There is plenty of time for that brother, Broke will be moving here soon and they can meet. Right now, I want you to enjoy your moment. Yo
TINAI saw how happy Zion was about finding his mate. The smile on his face could not be faked. He loved her, I could see it clearly. He forgot about me the moment he met her. I was so hurt by that. He promised that we were going to be together. That he was going to tell Aiden about us, and we would be together openly.Then he found his mate and forgot all about that. When I called his name, I saw guilt in his eyes but that was all it was. Guilt, but it was not enough for him to reject her and come after me. to find out if I was okay. He let me leave and didn’t even care to come and check on me. I thought he loved me, but I guess I was wrong.He was just using me; how could I have been so stupid. I could not help but cry when I thought about it. “I feel sorry for you, I do. But what did you expect? He is not our mate and I have been telling you to stop this with him. Look at what is happening now, do you think he is going to leave his mate for you?” my spiteful wolf sure knew how to r
ZION“Would you stop trying to leave our mate to go to her! you promised that your affair will stop when we find our mate.” My wolf bellowed in my head. We shared the same brain, and he knew what I was thinking, and he wasn’t happy about it. But I could not help it, I wanted to see if she was okay. I couldn’t go to bed not knowing how she was. My wolf would have to forgive me, but I had to go. “I am sorry.”I told him before cutting the link between us. It was in the middle of the night, and I had my mate in my bed. I didn’t touch her, I couldn’t, not when I knew she was not the woman I wanted at the time. I was going to keep her as my mate, I didn’t plan on rejecting her because I knew my wolf would never forgive me if I did that. But I wasn’t going to do that tonight.Tonight, I wanted to go and make sure that Tina was alright. I owed her that much. I sneaked out of my room; I opened the door then looked around in the hall to see if there was no one. When I was sure it was clear. I
AIDENI was standing in the balcony replaying the events of the night. I didn’t think it was going to turn out the way it did, but it turned out better than I expected. Seeing Zion like that and my mate drinking her sorrows away made me happy. She was dilutional if she thought Zion was going to leave his mate for her. My brother was not that kind of a man.What am I saying? The brother I knew wouldn’t be sneaking around with my mate either. I had to accept at some point that Zion was not the same person I knew. He has changed and it was all because of her. I hated her, corrupting Zion. Coming here pretending like she wanted me, only to turn around and open her legs for my brother.She so disgusting. “Beta Aiden?” a mind link came through and I immediately knew who it was. I looked at my wristwatch and the time read 1h15. What could she have to report at that time, doesn’t the girl sleep? “Yes.” I answered and waited for her to say something. “I just left her room.” What the hell did s
