The Lycan's Mate 20. Fangs Of Doubt
[Gabriel's POV]As the cab brought me closer to Willowvale, my heart quickened with a mix of anticipation and nostalgia. This small town, tucked away in the embrace of vast woods, was where I had spent my formative years. It held the echoes of childhood laughter, secret adventures, and the stories of my ancestors who had blended seamlessly with the unknowing humans who shared this space.Willowvale had once been a sanctuary for lycans seeking refuge from a world that did not understand them. But as civilization spread its reach and cities beckoned with promises of progress, humans flocked to urban centers, leaving Willowvale primarily to its lycan inhabitants, unaware of their true nature. It became a haven where the ancient and the modern intertwined, a place where the forest whispered its secrets to those who listened.As the cab rolled to a stop, I paid the fare and stepped out onto familiar ground.

I exclaimed, pointing toward a figure I recognized. "It's Michael, over there!" A warm smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I called out to him, hoping he would hear me amidst the bustling crowd.Sure enough, Michael's eyes darted in our direction, and he swiftly made his way through the throng of people, his eyes widening with concern as he took in the sight of Sarah's injury. The attention it drew from the curious humans only added to our urgency. "The cab is just over there," he informed us, gesturing toward a yellow taxi parked nearby.We hurriedly stepped into the car, grateful for the relative calm inside. As the car started to move, I couldn't contain my curiosity any longer. "Michael, how did you come to know about the incident at the restaurant?" I inquired, my voice tinged with a mix of astonishment and apprehe

My heart skipped a beat, and a sense of unease settled over me. I had underestimated the gravity of the incident, and now it was laid bare before me."Wow," I exclaimed involuntarily, my voice betraying a mixture of shock and apprehension. Michael brought the car to a halt, and as he opened his door and stepped out, I knew that this was the moment we had been building up to. I exchanged a brief glance with Sarah, my closest friend, and felt a knot forming in my stomach."This is it, Rachel," Michael said, his voice filled with both solemnity and encouragement. With those words, he closed the door, sealing our fate.

The Lycan's Mate 24. Harboring Hope
[Gabriel's POV]The morning sun made Willowvale look all shiny and golden as I headed to the nearby grocery store. My dad's old place needed some serious restocking after I cleaned it up earlier. Birds were chirping and there was a nice smell of flowers in the air, which helped me relax a bit.I walked into the store and went through the aisles, looking for snacks to fill up the empty fridge. I really wanted to buy a proper meal, but I hesitated for a moment before giving in. I spent my last few dollars on a warm plate of food. It was a small treat, a brief break from all the things bothering me.While I was enjoying my unexpected feast, I noticed someone entering the store from the corner of my eye. I looked up, but they were looking in a different direction, so I couldn't see their face clearly. They didn't wait to be served and just walked ahead, which was kind of unusual and caught my attention.I went back to eating, but then I heard a voice calling my name. "Gabriel?" I recogniz
The Lycan's Mate 25. Confined
[Rachel's POV]I woke up early in the morning, greeted by the gentle rays of the rising sun. Living on the top floor provided me with a splendid view of the neighborhood and the golden hues of dawn. It had been a while since I had taken a moment to truly appreciate the beauty of a sunrise, but my thoughts quickly turned to Gabriel.Despite assuring Sarah that it was over between Gabriel and me, deep down, I knew my feelings for him hadn't completely faded. As much as I was hurt by his initial deception, there was still a connection between us. In some strange way, I found comfort in the fact that he was a lycan as it created a unique bond that I couldn't deny, even though I held humans in high regard.I had anticipated that Gabriel would reach out to me sooner or later, but to my disappointment, he hadn't made any effort to contact me. So, there I sat, gazing at the rising sun, when my phone suddenly beeped, jolting me from my thoughts. With a mix of anticipation and uncertainty, I hu
The Lycan's Mate 26. Burning Obsession
[Jake's POV]Waiting patiently for my boys to take care of Gabriel, a low-ranked member who had betrayed me, I scrolled through my phone absentmindedly. Suddenly, a news headline popped up on the screen, titled "Real Werewolf Attacks Restaurant." My heart skipped a beat as I realized our secret identities were at risk of being exposed. We had always tried to avoid starting a war with humans, as they seemed to dominate the population. If only that lad had followed my instructions, we wouldn't be facing this danger.My mind raced, imagining what could have unfolded at the restaurant. I quickly dialed one of my boys' numbers, eager to find out what had happened and why it was all over the news. Sinclair, one of my trusted associates, answered the call. He explained that Gabriel had disrupted everything by transforming into his wolf form and had chased down Lucas through the streets. "Make sure you take care of him," I instructed Sinclair before ending the call.I couldn't help but feel a

[Rachel's POV]As I finally arrived at the riverside cafe, I dialed Marcus's number to pinpoint his location. Surprisingly, he answered promptly, directing me to his left and waving his hand. Doubts crept into my mind as I noticed that he bore no resemblance to Gabriel, making me question his claim of being Gabriel's brother. Nevertheless, I slowly took a seat opposite him, cautiously observing his peculiar staring.Breaking the silence, I asked, "Where do we start?" Marcus took a moment to gather his thoughts before complimenting my appearance, stating that Gabriel had never mentioned how good-looking I was, as if expressing a hint of jealousy. I couldn't help but smile slightly in response, appreciating the unexpected flattery, "thank you."There was a brief silence before Marcus inquired about the reason for our meeting. In truth, I had started to question my own intentions, unsure of why I had wanted to meet him. Thinking on my feet, I improvised, mentioning the fight he had refer
