“Slow down, girl. Why are you running?” An old woman asked me.I had reached the southern village and I was heading to the dock to get a boat ride to the Highlands. I’d stopped briefly by an empty stall in the market to catch my breath when the woman showed up.“Are you ok?” She asked.She was standing in the shadows where I couldn’t see her properly but I recognized her voice.“Lattie?”She stepped forward and the moonlight shone on her face. She was staring at me with a puzzled expression.“Do I know you?” She asked.“Not in this life,” I replied plainly. “Where’s Albert? Do you think he’ll be willing to give me a ride to the Highlands?”Lattie was speechless at first. “Who are you?”“My name is Jade. You don’t know me yet or maybe you do and don’t remember, but I know you from another time.”“Child, that doesn’t make sense.”“To you, it doesn’t but to me, it does. Where’s Albert?”“He already packed up and left. I only stayed back this long to sell off my last batch of fresh apples
The last thing I remembered was Albert and Lattie shifting into their wolf forms and meeting Damian mid-air. I don’t even know how I found my way out of the cottage but I did.“I have to get to the Highlands! I have to get to the Highlands!” I chanted again as I ran towards the dock.I couldn’t see Damian but my wolf senses told me that he was already behind me. I could almost feel his breath on my back.As I reached the dock, a boat was just pulling up and the only passenger on it got off through the gangplank. He was a dashing guy that I would recognize anywhere.“Sahid! What are you doing here?”He stared at me blankly. “Who are you?”“It’s me, Jade.”“Watch out!” He yelled and pushed me out of the way.Damian crashed into Sahid, knocking him to the ground. He tried to come after me but Sahid wouldn’t let him. He held onto the Alpha’s hind legs, stalling his movement.“Get away from me, you fool!” Damian shouted and kicked Sahid savagely.Once he broke free from the Lycan’s grip, h
“Here she is, my lord,” Tarik announced as he led me into Alpha Jaxon’s lair.“Leave us,” he growled and Tarik promptly disappeared.Alpha Jaxon watched me warily like a predator. He was sitting on a wingbacked chair, nursing a goblet of wine. His beard was overgrown and his bloodshot eyes told me that he was piss drunk.“Where have you been?” He asked me. His deep voice rumbled like thunder.“I – I…”“Answer me!” He barked and I nearly peed on myself.Why the hell did I agree to this? Why did I let Lynda talk me into this nonsense? I wasn’t even Sasha, so why should I receive her punishment?“I’m not Sasha,” I blurted out fearfully.“That’s not the answer to my question,” he rumbled again. “I will ask you one more time only.”I swallowed hard. My heart was pounding wildly in my chest.“Where… have… you… been?”I began to shiver with fear. “I am not Sasha,” I repeated stubbornly.He was out of his chair like a shot and was standing in front of me within a second. He grabbed my throat
“You’re back,” Rowan whispered happily. I blinked. “Where am I?” “We had to bring you to the pack hospital. Your bones were broken badly from the fall,” he explained. “But don’t worry, you’re the only one here. We cleared out the hospital to give you some privacy.” I looked at him and noticed how tired he looked. There were dark circles under his eyes and his beard was overgrown like his father’s own in the chasm. “I am so sorry,” I apologized. “I have put you through a lot. You don’t deserve any of these troubles you’ve experienced because of me.” “Please, don’t say that,” he replied tenderly. “We are one. You’re my mate and that means that whatever affects you affects me. We’re in this together.” “Thank you,” I whispered. “From the bottom of my heart, I say thank you, Alpha Rowan.” He smiled tenderly. “You’re welcome, Luna Jade. Always and forever.” He leaned down and kissed my forehead softly. “I have some good news for you,” he whispered. “Let me guess, you found the neckl
Today’s the happiest day of my life! After living like a slave in my uncle's palace all these years, I finally get to break free from this beautiful prison and start my life afresh. Yes, dreams really do come true. “Here comes the bride,” said Brianna distastefully as she entered by bedroom without knocking on the door as usual. “With the way you’re carrying on, one would think you have just been mated to an Alpha king instead of a miserable unknown Alpha who lives under a mountain like a wild animal.” “What do you want?” I asked her dryly while I continued to pack my things inside my small travelling bag. It was just enough to contain my few belongings. She stared at me with a look of hatred that reminded me of her father, Barry Hunter. He took me in as his ward since he was the only family I had left. My parents had died suddenly during a robbery attack on our way to Apex Woods to attend my uncle's coronation as the Alpha King of the Woods Pack. How he reached that position was
Dominic’s home was a rural settlement compared to Apex Woods which was more like a big city. Here, they had cute little houses located around the base of the Aldov Mountains. Life looked simple here and the people welcomed us with bright smiles and cheerful greetings. “Our cottage is right after the bend,” said Dominic. “It’s a bit far away from the rest of the village but I’m sure you’ll like it.” “Sure,” I said with a grin. I couldn’t wait to see my new home. We had shifted back to our human forms and were walking hand-in-hand along the windy dirt road that led to our destination. The cottage was a beautiful brown brick house with a high roof and wide windows. It was surrounded by hedges of colourful flowers, shrubs and trees. “This place is beautiful!” I gushed. “Thank you,” said Dominic with a grin. “I’m glad you like it.” We followed the walkway lined with interlocked stones leading to the front door. I could already see myself living in this adorable house with my mate and
Once my identity was confirmed, Darius changed from an asshole to a gentleman. He apologized for being rude before and promised to be nice to me from now on. I got to know that Damian enjoyed hunting while Darius loved to farm. Dominic on the other hand enjoyed daily combat practice with his Beta best friend in the village, just for the fun of it. The triplets were excellent cooks and they teamed up in the kitchen to prepare a befitting dinner to celebrate my homecoming. I felt as if I was on cloud nine and couldn’t be happier. Our jolly little party eventually became a bit awkward when it was time to go to bed. Each of the triplets had his own room and I began to wonder about the intimacy aspect of living with three mates under the same roof. “So… are we all going to sleep on the same bed tonight?” I finally asked Dominic when I couldn’t bear the suspense anymore. We were in the kitchen doing the dishes while the others were in the living room, chatting and laughing. He shrugge
As the days passed, my bond and love for my three Alpha mates continued to grow until I could not imagine a life without them. I came to know that the Mountain pack were liberals who did not abide by the restrictive morals of the society that I grew up in at Apex Woods. I learned that it was normal for females here to have multiple mates, and some even had female mates. When Dominic and I eventually made love, it was as special as my time with Damian but different. Darius was another matter entirely; he was the first mate to introduce me to kinky sex and we always did things that would make even the wildest werewolf in the mountains blush. I was like a queen with her own harem of three insanely sexy lovers. Sometimes I let them make love to me at the same time, and I cannot forget one occasion when they laid me on the dining table and took me at once. I had Dominic’s cock in my mouth while Damian romanced on my boobs and Darius was between my legs, fucking me savagely. I was living
