Thank you,” I sighed, getting into the red Audi, and drove home. A home I haven’t been to in years. My home held no fond memories for me since my mother’s death when I was six years old. She died in the bombing that killed our Luna Adriena. Two years later, my father married Shawna. She didn’t mistreat me, but she didn’t like me either as I was my mother’s replication, the woman who truly owned my father’s heart. Shawna made it known that she had no love for me. I opened the windows of my car as drove through the middle-class suburbs of the pack. We weren’t always middle class, we were upper class, but after three years into marriage with Shawna, my father’s beer factory went into bankruptcy as Shawna loved a lavish life, and the old man made some wrong investments. We moved out of the upper class to here. The middle-class suburbs weren’t shabby, but it wasn’t close to as grand as our former residence.

Despite his love for me, my father put me to work at an early age at the factory in hopes of helping out and pitching in with expenses at home. I worked a day in and out, missing school sometimes.

When I was thirteen years old, the beta female of the pack selected five girls and boys to attend a sponsored annual camp. Dad and Shawna reluctantly let me go. At the camp, I met Jace, Ellis, and Love. I remember when I was assigned to their group, I was very intimidated by them. They were so fierce, stylish, and so gorgeous. Everyone loved them and were treated like royalty, even among the camp

instructors.

I remember it like it was yesterday. Love was told to pick a girl from the new group to be part of their team, and I was praying I wouldn’t be noticed especially with their bad reputation. I was nervous as her heels clicked against the marble floor. Who wore heels at age 13? Love, only Love.

“You, no,” she pointed at the enthusiastic girl a few feet from me. Everyone was eager except me.

Too desperate,” she scowled at another.

She stepped close to me and tipped my chin up so our eyes could meet. She grinned, showing her perfect dental formula.

“I want her as part of my team. Isn’t she perfect for our group boys?” She turned to the two tall boys who scowled. They shrugged before turning and leaving the hall.

“I love your braids. Is that your real hair?” She asked. I rolled my eyes but gave her a slight smile, it was the first thing everyone asked when they saw my long natural exotic curls.

“yes,” I answered her.

So exotic, I love it,”

Love sighed and rested her head on my shoulder as though we’d been long-time friends,

Don’t mind Ellis and Jace, new camper. They are a little mean to strangers, but you and I are going to be camp besties!” she squealed. Love grabbed my hand, taking me towards the guys.

Ellis mostly ignored me at first but he warmed up to me later. Jace and I were always clashing. I called him Mr. Know it all. We opposed each other every time during our group or individual assignments. He pis sed me off, yet we were always together for three months.

A smile curled on my lips at the remembrance of our young years. My name was always on the female beta’s camp list even though it was supposed to be a one-time thing. I realized it was Jace, Ellis, and Love who were paying for me to be there onwards.

I recall one summer, Jace had just gotten his Lycan, Jaha. He was different, more handsome. He had muscles and was tailer. I couldn’t stop crushing on him. It was a new feeling for me. Instead of retorting or fighting back when he teased me, I was shy and clumsy

The Carter Manor

It was the day we would go to Christina’s manor, the Carter family residence. I was anxious and breathed in. I wore a silky red dress that had slits on both sides up to mid-thigh and threw over a cashmere fuzzy red sweater. I wore a pair of cute diamond earrings gifted to me by CC long ago. I put on heels after applying makeup. I looked good, se xy even, but that was not what I was going for today.

I turned on my feet and went downstairs. The twins were dressed nicely.

“Mommy,” Cayden smiled at me. I kissed his hair and smiled.

You look nervous, Mummy,” Solara said. I exchanged a glance with Luis, he’ll be joining us. He didn’t want to, but I needed him for emotional support.

Ready?” he asked. I nodded, and we went to the limo. Once in, Luis opened a bottle of Chateau Lafite. I hated drinking in front of the kids and never did, though, in this situation, I was going to. I took a glass from Luis’ hands and took a sip.

Are you drinking alcohol?” My son frowned.

11

Not really,” I said.

We were going deep into the Grey Lycan pack now, and as soon as we entered the gates, we saw lycans in their forms. They were following after the car. Ellis must have sent them to escort us to the manor. I took another gulp of my drink, and my nerves were slowly calming.

‘I don’t love her… not even a little,’ Ellis’ words replay in my head again. My heart racing. I was going to see him in less than ten minutes. We reached the manor. The driveway way to the entrance

was another three minutes. That’s how grand and impressive the

property was. Once the car stopped, I inhaled and stepped outside first. The kids followed after Luis and stood beside me. My gaze

snapped to the main entrance where a dozen people waited.

Ellis,’ Vee whispered. Ellis’ blazing gaze was on mine. He was so handsome. He wore a simple t-shirt that was guilty of showing off his broad shoulders and muscular build, next to him was CC, smiling kindly. She wore an elegant outfit as always. Jace was there too, even though he was smiling softly, his eyes were sad. Melody and Seumo stood close to each other. The rest of the people were ser vants. I frowned, wondering why Zeyneb wasn’t there. She was so cool and a great friend to me.

Before I realized it, Ellis was already in front of us. He smiled, and the kids ran into his arms cheerily. He placed a kiss on them and stepped forward. He gently held my waist and leaned in to kiss my cheek. His lips against my cheek left a warm feeling on my skin, and

goosebumps rose. He stared at me deeply, and I felt hypnotized by his mesmerizing grey eyes. I averted my gaze. Ellis extended his hand to Luis, My best friend shook it.

“Thank you for coming, you’re welcome,” he told us, putting his hands on the kid’s shoulders.

11

How are you?” he greeted his children. I watched them interact fondly. Ellis turned to us and said,

”

Shall we?”

I nodded.

Love,’ I almost jumped when I heard Ellis’ mind link. He seemed startled, not expecting him to reach my mind. Ellis glanced back at

me.

‘How?’ I asked.

2/5’I guess coming back has made you reconnect to the pack,’ he answered. I joined this pack when I came to stay here, but when I left, the link broke because of the long distance. It was lovely to feel Ellis like this again. We smiled at each other, but it vanished quickly. What was I thinking, seriously? Why do I like feeling this way?

ན་

“Oh, my gorgeous, adorable, grandkids,” CC’s voice snapped me away from my thoughts. She hugged them tightly. Happy tears danced in her eyes. I stepped closer to properly introduce them.

Kids, this is Christina Carter, Ellis’ grandmother, and your great- grandmother,” I told them.

“I

I’m your grandmother,” Added CC. They exchanged pleasantries, but Lcould tell the question they wanted to ask.

ו

Ask,” I smiled at my kids.

But you’re our father’s grandmother. Why do you say you’re our grandmother too?” Cayden asked.

Well, CC hates getting old, and I think she’ll feel younger this way. Imagine how ancient she’ll feel if you call her great-grandmother,” It was Melody who answered with a laugh. CC glared at Melody playfully,

I’m not that old, hence you should call me Granny or CC,” She sai

lovingly.

H oo, can we call you Granny too?” Melody and Ellis asked. CC gave them a little glare that made their smiles vanish. She looked at the twins with love,

Cayden and Solara, this is the Grey Lycan Pack. It is your true pack and home. You are very welcome, and I’m most pleased to see you here,” she said. I could tell she felt emotional.

The serv ants parted ways for us to go inside. The manor was as

stunning as I remembered. CC announced we’d be having brunch in the garden as the weather was lovely today. We were interacting with each other. CC busied herself with the children. Jace and Luis were speaking. I was chitchatting with Seumo and Melody, everything was serene and an ambiance of happiness filled the room.

Ellis came to us, and Melody and Seumo immediately walked away as though he ordered them to leave.

Chauetu, it is only ten?’ his voice sounded in my head.

‘Who are you to judge,’ I gestured for the liquor in his hands. ‘is it obvious that I was drinking?’ I asked

‘You never could hold your liquor,’ he laughed.

That’s not true!’ I yelled, ‘I was feeling a little nervous, that’s why I

drank,’

‘Why were you anxious, Love? You’ve been here many times,’ his voice was seductive. It made Vee purr.

‘Well, it’s been years since I’ve been here,’ I said, facing the marble floor. I felt hurt course through me.

How does it feel being here again?’ he stepped closer to me. If I moved, I’d be met with a wall, so I didn’t. My heart pounded in my chest, I was sure he could hear it.

“Why are we mind linking again?” I changed the topic. He chuckled and shook her head.

“I don’t know,” he said out loud.

31

More Chauetu?” he glanced at the waiters, and I shook my head.

As you said, I can’t hold my drink. It’s only mid-morning,” I shrugged. He had his bourbon though, and I watched him drink it. The way he gulped it made dirty thoughts run in my head. He smirked, and I

chased away all titillating thoughts.

“Love, thank you. Thank you for bringing the twins here. We are delighted,” he said sincerely.

It’s their pack,” My voice came out as a whisper. I could feel the happiness radiating from him and it was disseminated to me.

Did I mention you look beautiful?” he said softly.

“No… Sir,”

‘Well-”

“She’s here. Babe, she’s here,” Luis was in front of me, looking

agitated.
