Elenora's POV

"You guys are..."

"Twins?" Nicolo questions. "Yeah."

"And you both are my..."

"Mates? Yeah."

I take a deep breath taking everything in before my anger raised again.

"You know what you could've done? How about telling me that you were planning on kidnapping me before hand? Oh! Or telling that you had a freaking twin brother and that you both are pricks?" I ask sarcastically, my blood boiling by each minute that passed.

"Elenora, please calm down-"

"No way this girl is my problem. I'm out of here." Alfonso says, turning on his heel and leaving. My wolf swooned at the way his muscles rippled on his back.

Not now. I say.

"Elenora, please get down from there." Nicolo says, his eyes trained on me. My wolf melted at the eye contact.

"Now you're trying to tell me what to do? You got some nerve-"

Before I could even register what was happening, I was off the bed and in the arms of my mate. I didn't even fight back. Not that I could anyways. His large arms fit my wide waist perfectly. He felt so warm and way he smelt?

I'm gonna freaking melt...

"I'm sorry." He whispers into my ears. I don't say anything, afraid that if I do, a moan might slip out. "I'll be sure to make it all up to you. But, right now? I want you to get settled in and then we talk. Okay?"

"Fine." I agree, rolling my eyes.

"That's the first go-ahead I've gotten from you today. I usually punish anyone who goes against my word but, I'll let you slide this time. After all, I do love how feisty you are."

"You liked it?" I question. I pull away to see him slowly smirk as his right hand cups my ass.

"You have no idea how turned on I was." He says lowly. My mouth hangs once he leaves a light kiss on my neck. "Go on and get settled. I'll be back."

Once he leaves, I let out a deep breath, trying to process what the hell just happened.

What have I gotten myself into?

.........

"You have no idea how jealous I am of you right now." Renata says.

"Oh good! Then how about you come and take my place?" I say sarcastically, holding up my phone as best as I could. The signal here was terrible.

"Uh oh. You're being sarcastic. This is serious." She says, putting away whatever she was eating to listen.

"It is Rea. I don't know if I could do this training. But, all I do know is that once I'm done training these warriors? I'm coming home."

"You're not even going to stay for the fact that you have twin mates?" She asks.

"Not even that. I heard stories of how having twin mates end. The girl ends up going crazy due to being emotionally exhausted." I point out.

"Well I know damn well, that won't happen to you. Cause you're a bad b!tch. Alright? Badasses don't get pushed around!" She says, her commanding voice kicking in. I chuckled softly.

"Thanks Rea." I say softly, my attention going to the forest. "How's my mom?"

"She misses you. Even though she was the one who packed your bags. She even made your favorite pasta and was like 'come get it you hog' but then remembered you aren't here"

I sigh. I would do hood with the pasta right now...

"And dad?"

"Oh, he's fxcking furious. He can't believe all this happened underneath his own roof. He even vowed to come get you when he has the chance. I think he might even involve Alpha Antonio."

"Good! I'll wait for that day to come." I say as she laughs. "See you later bestfriend."

She mutters the same before I end the call.

..........

"These aren't even my size." I mumble as I struggle to put on my sneakers. "Who the heck made these?"

I was in the training grounds of the other warriors, checking my surroundings, examining what I would be working with.

"Ah. Welcome to Midnight Shadow wolves, where everything fits except the shoes." A voice says. It was a black guy, tall and charming. His training outfit fit well with his dreadlocs.

"You have no idea how wrong that sounds." I chuckle, letting go of the laces.

"Now that I'm hearing it? It actually does." He chuckles, crouching to meet my sitting frame. "But, the bigger culprit is you for seeing it that way."

"Guilty." I smirk, watching as he got my feet into the small shoe. "Elenora."

"Vincent." He says coolly, his green hazel eyes shining confidently.

"Yeah, that's not gonna work. I'm just gonna call you Aries."

"That's pretty random Elenora. Why that nickname?" He asks.

"It fits you better than a name called Vincent." I cringe playfully. "Why that name?"

"Guess it has to do with my dark and cruel past." He says in a weird accent. I laugh pushing him slightly.

"Mysterious." I tease. "Is there a story behind that?"

"Oh, lord yes. A very long one." He smiles, and I chuckle. "What about you? It's the first I'm seeing your face around here. Where you from?"

Standing up, I grab my water bottle. "Originally? I'm from Jamaica, but raised in Italy. I'm from the Starry wolves pack."

"Interesting." He comments. We begin to walk together as I watch the other warriors train.

"What about you?"

"Africa. My mom moved to Italy due to a rivalry pack taking over our pack and killing almost everyone in it. Long story short, my dad protected us, died in result and mom came here because of his brother."

"I'm sorry." I say, looking at him as he did the same.

"Eh, I'm over it. Long time ago. Time heals and such." He shrugged.

"You make it sound sooo easy." I say sarcastically as he chuckles. "But, don't you miss him?"

"I won't forget him." He said, sitting under a big apple tree. "Welcome to my safe space."

"An honor." I bow my head. "Maybe I'll make you my favorite student above all these warriors."

"We wouldn't want to be spoiled now." He teases, nudging my arm. "I'm looking forward to it. First thing tomorrow. And a heads up, you might get iced for being late on the first day."

"They won't do that." I smile.

"Oh no, I'll do it." He says, winking at me. I chuckle before sharing some of my water with my new friend.

...........

"I am not going down there!" I whisper harshly. Nicolo smirks, grabbing my arm. "Let me go."

"Come on Nora. You'll only be meeting my parents." He says, trying to hold in his laughter.

"Oh yes. And if I break your arm, it naa go broken." I hiss. "Let me stay in my room where it's safe and warm."

"Correction, my arms. You're so beautiful. Now, come on." He smiles, dragging me down the flight of stairs.

"I swear to God I'm gonna choke you out when I'm done-"

"And I'll like it-"

"What was that?" A female voice calls out. My mate places me in a chair before sitting beside me. The female then emerges, making my jaw drop.

"Oh! Who's this?" She asks eyeing me. I gulp nervously.

"Mom, Elenora. Elenora, mom." Nicolo introduces.

"You're-"

"Delilah Romano? Yes, yes I am." She smiles.

This woman is a literal legend. I've heard many stories about her. Even when I was a kid. I always looked up to her as my idol. She did so many great things. Rose above her trails and is the woman she is today.

"You're my inspiration." I blurt, before covering my mouth. She chuckles before coming to me and giving me a big hug. "I c-can't breathe."

"I'm so sorry!" She laughs, patting my back.

"Mom's a hugger." Another voice says. A girl who seemed to be younger than me came to the table. "That's why no one should hug her without warning."

"Okay, okay." Delilah says, putting her hands up as she placed the plates on the table. "Everyone sit for dinner."

"I'm Angelina." The girl says. "The twin's sister. Unfortunately. "

"Angelina. That's a really cute name. For a beautiful person."

"Wow, you got moves. You've got yourself a friend...."

"Elenora." A deep voice says, emerging from the door. "Please to meet you."

"Alpha Devon..."

"Present." He says, bowing slightly. "I heard you're mated to both my sons-"

"Nope. Just Nicolo." Alfonso's voice comes, making me jolt. I glare at him before looking back at his father.

"Unfortunately, I am for that one." I say, rolling my eyes. He chuckles before taking a seat at the head of the table. "It is an honour."

"I like her already." Alpha Devon says as his wife came with the dinner. He gave her a sweet kiss, before thanking her.

"Don't get used to her dad." Alfonso grits. "She's not staying long."

When I say I had to hold my tongue from bashing at this asshole, I truly meant it.

"Hey, take it easy. Okay?" Nicolo whispers, kissing my hand. I immediately calm down. I didn't fail to glimpse how his twin's mouth twitched.

"All mouths shut. Dinner time." Alpha Delilah commands and at once, everyone follwed.

Impressive..

I instantly admired this family.

You know, despite the asshole sitting beside his sister.

The rest of the night ran smoothly. I got to know the family a little better, they made me feel so welcomed and apart of the family.

"Whose seat is that for?" I ask, as Nicolo places his hand on mines. I smile at him, flushing.

Alfonso coughs before smirking once the doorbell rang. He went to open the door as Nicolo began to caress my inner palm.

I was about to say something on behalf of the rest of my sanity, but a soft voice cuts me off.

"So so sorry I'm late! I had to help my mom with the sink." A girl with brunette roots and blond strands says. Her bright lipstick could blind me anyday and the dress she had on stuck unto her like a second skin.

At first I was just going to ignore whoever she was, but she caught my attention when she gave Alfonso a kiss.

She then walks up to Nicolo, about to give him a kiss on the cheek when she sees me.

"Oh! You must be Elenora." She says sweetly. Her smile made me want to gouge her molars out. The words she muttered next made my blood boil like no other.

"It's a pleasure. I'm Fling. Alfonso's girlfriend."

Let's take a moment of silence to take in how fast I'm coming with these chapters...sort of. If you have been following me and my works, you'll know just how slow I am at updating.

On a side note...Vincent (aka Aries)  is my husband. I'm in love with everything about him and I'm obsessed with locs and I couldn't decide on what name to choose so I included both.

(And based on his character and past, I might make a story for him. His past is honestly worth a read tbh)

Please tell me what you thought of this chapter? I love communicating with you guys. Vote I guess, and tell a friend or two!

Kisses ♡
