Mated to the Alpha Twins

Chapter 35

As much as I wanted to deny the truth, it was sitting right in front of me. I couldn’t help but do a mental check over my own body. I didn’t feel different. Apart from Thalia’s intrusive voice, I felt nearly the same as I always had. It would explain why my face had healed so quickly.

You would think I’d be excited, but I wasn’t. Turning into one of these creatures was the last thing I wanted. I wanted—needed normalcy. Sure, some small part of my mind wondered if I could use this against Grace. As much as I wanted to feel guilty over that, I couldn’t.

I was yanked from my thoughts by the ringing of a cellphone. The cellphone in my hand was buzzing, a picture of Tori lighting up the screen.

“I’ll call you back in ten.” I answered, ending the phone call without another word. My eyes were still locked on the giant wolf—on Garrett.

Garrett walked over to a cluster of trees nestled in their backyard. I watched on in silence as Garrett returned to his human form. A pair of sweatpants hung on the lower portion of his body. His suit had been torn to shreds during his… transformation.

“I don’t want this.” Those were the first words that left my lips, followed by. “You don’t even know if I can—can turn into a wolf. I’ve never turned into one before.”

Instead of Garrett’s face contorting in anger like I suspected, his eyes held sympathy.

“I don’t need to watch you shift to know what you are, Aurora.” Garrett murmured, leading the two of us back inside. My body was on autopilot. Half of me wanted to run, to get away from Garrett and his strange family as soon as possible. The other side of me was smart, knowing if I ran now, he would only catch me.

“I can feel your wolf.” Garrett sighed, “She’s inside of you, she will help you shift when it’s time.”

‘I tried to tell you, Aurora.’ Thalia frowned, ‘We can’t shift yet, but when we do, we’re going to need Alec and Kade.’

‘What’s so important about Alec and Kade?’ I grimaced, my heart thundering at the mention of their names.

‘They’re our mates, Aurora.’ Thalia rushed the words out in an exasperated huff.

“What is a mate?” I spoke before thinking, gaining Garrett’s full attention.

“What makes you ask?” Garrett’s lips pressed together tightly; his eyes intense as he looked at me.

“My—wolf mentioned the term.” I shifted uncomfortably. The truth coupled with Garrett’s interrogating stare made me want to flee.
