Aria looked at Camille in awe as she listened to her story. She could see how truly happy Camille was and it made her heart swell with joy for them both. After all they had been through together, it was a truly beautiful moment to witness. The two friends spent the rest of the evening talking about wedding plans and what their future together would look like. They discussed all sorts of ideas from where they should have the ceremony to who should be in the bridal party. "It's going to be so much fun planning our special day," Camille said with a huge smile on her face. "I can't wait for us to start picking out dresses and getting everything ready!" Aria nodded in agreement, then added, "And you know I'm here for whatever you need! You don't even have to ask." She smiled warmly at Camille before giving her another hug as she said, "Congratulations, my friend! I'm so happy for you!" Camille hugged her back and said, "Thank you so much! This is the happiest day of my life." She looke
Aria and Damien had now been married for a whole year and they were looking forward to a day of fun at the amusement park. They both loved roller coasters, carnival games, and all sorts of other attractions that made up the park. As they entered through the gates, Aria's eyes lit up with excitement as she took in all the sights before her. The bright colors of the rides mixed with laughter from children playing nearby filled her heart with joy. Damien smiled down at his wife affectionately, taking in her enthusiasm for life and appreciating it more than ever before. He grabbed hold of her hand tightly as he led them over towards one of their favorite rides - The Big Dipper! As they approached the ride, Aria noticed a group of children huddled around the entrance. She couldn't help but feel a little jealous that they were able to experience such joy and excitement at this age while she was already an adult. "Hey, why don't we join them? We can be kids again too!" Damien said with a
In a sparsely decorated room, as opposed to the opulence of the grand house, a girl lay on the bed.Her chestnut brown hair fanned out on her threadbare pillow as she clutched a worn bunny close to her.Her eyes were crinkled shut and her deep brown brows were drawn together. Suddenly, her pretty facial features relaxed and her cherry red lips curved into a small smile.“Really? Me?” she muttered in her sleep.Suddenly, a loud female voice called her name from behind the door of the bedroom.“Aria Jean!”The door slammed open and jerked Aria out of her sleep. Her eyes snapped open and tried to focus on the female figure at the edge of her small bed.“Wake up, Aria! Don’t you know what today is?” the female voice said again, sounding cross.Aria’s eyes finally focused, and locked on to emerald green eyes just like eyes. It was her twin sister, Ellie Jill. She sighed and sat up.Ellie’s eyes followed every movement she made with disdain until their eyes met again.“What is it, Ellie?” s
Aria could hear her heart beating loudly in her chest as all blood rushed to her head. She lifted her head to meet the blue gaze of the Alpha wolf in front of her.It was finally happening. She was the chosen twin. Her lips curved in a smile and she parted her lips to respond to the mate call.However, her mouth only opened. It was not her voice that responded.“Mate!” Ellie’s voice called out softly behind her.Aria swiveled and she saw that the two of them were lost in each other. Her whole world began to crumble before her eyes as she observed the intimate moment between her sister and the golden-haired Alpha. One tear rolled down her cheek and she didn’t wipe it off.The new mates wrapped their arms around each other and the whole party cheered. Her father came to the front, beaming with smiles at Ellie and her new mate.“My daughter has found her mate! The true twin has found her mate!!” he bellowed.The true twin…the true twin…the true twin…Those words bounced around in her hea
Aria stirred and tried to open her eyes. She couldn’t. Her body was not responding to her wishes and it was strangely silent in her head. However, she could feel, and she could hear.A large warm hand was brushing gently against her hair and her face, and his voice was a deep rumble which echoed in her chest. She was aware that she lay on a soft bed and an even softer pillow.“How is she, Doctor? Is she badly hurt?” he asked. Another masculine replied to him, sounding far away.“She’s okay. She’s a little weak from her first shift, so I passed some glucose fluids into her body. She only fainted out of shock. She’s malnourished though, but she doesn’t look like a rogue.”“I don’t think so either,” Mystery man replied, “I can feel power on her, but I wonder why she left her pack.”He was still stroking her hair.Aria wanted to open her eyes and her mouth and tell him what happened, but she couldn’t. Soon, she fell into a deep but restless sleep.***2 days later“Why is she not opening
“You can’t leave. What do you mean you’re leaving? You can’t. You’re my mate!”The words resonated in Aria's head. She stared at Alpha Damien in shock. Her emerald green eyes got wider than they had ever gotten all her life.While she was unconscious, she remembered Damien had mentioned something about her being his mate but she had shrugged it off as a figment of her imagination. Aria believed that she wasn't supposed to have a mate because apparently, she was the evil twin as her family and pack claimed.How then could this man stand before her and claim that he was her mate?"I— I don't understand what you're talking about," Aria stuttered.Damien stared at her in disbelief. Was she really doing this to him? Was she trying to deny him? She couldn't. No, maybe she didn't really understand. Maybe it would be best if he handled matters with a lot of patience."You left me this note, Aria Jean. You're leaving," Damien began.Aria felt her heart racing. Her breathing was still heavy fro
“As my brother claimed, you, Aria, are his mate. The long-awaited Luna of Crescent Moon Pack," Camille stated with authority.Aria felt her heart sink deeper into her ribcage. She stared at Camille with widened eyes. She had not expected Camille to confirm it too but Camille had done just that. Camille gave her a reassuring smile as she nodded at her. Aria knew that Camille would not just lie to her but she still found it hard to believe. She was the evil twin as her pack claimed. The evil twin was not supposed to have a mate. How would her pack then explain Damien who kept claiming that she was his mate?"If Damien is truly my mate, shouldn't I feel something? Shouldn't I feel a certain kind of pull or a chain of emotions? Maybe sparks or butterflies in my stomach? I don't feel anything," Aria told them the honest truth.Camille broke into laughter. "You have been listening to too many teenage wolves, Aria. You are probably a late wolf. Since you had your first shift that night when
Ellie Jill Hendrix happily brushed her chestnut brown hair before the mirror. There was a joyous glint in her emerald green eyes. There was also the existence of a dreamy smile plastered on her face. She was happy.She never knew her life could get even better than it already was. Especially because her father had finally rid them of her evil twin sister.She had waited for years to dissociate herself from that evil twin she had as a sister and just being able to breathe different air from the one Aria breathed made her satisfied. The one who murdered her mother was finally gone.She rolled her eyes at the thought of Aria. Thinking of that woman always brought a sour expression to her face. She wasn't going to let Aria ruin her day. She went back to brushing her hair.Ellie had finally gotten all that she ever wanted. She was living in the paradise she always dreamed of. She had found her mate— Alpha Gerald and this had automatically made her the Luna of the Moonshadow Pack. Her mat
