Chapter 9

Amelia tried to remove her hand. She could feel Vera’s nails slowly piercing her skin. It was also making her breathe hard and slowly, her vision went blurry. But she saw a familiar figure behind Vera.

It was Nicolai, standing firm with a brimming authoritative aura. He looked at Vera’s friend who was holding Bea. The two immediately let go of Bea.

“Let her go!” Bea shouted.

“Vera,” Nicolai called his chosen mate.

Vera turned her head and saw Nicolai. Her eyes widened and she immediately let go of Amelia. “N-Nicolai!”

“Amelia!” Bea went to Amelia and helped her. She was coughing. “It’s okay now. Breathe.”

“What is going on here?”

Vera bit her lips. She looked at Nicolai and she saw that he was staring at Amelia. She frowned and went to Nicolai’s side. “Babe! They are being mean to me! They said I am not capable of being Luna because I am not your fated mate.” Vera pouted her lips and held onto Nicola’s arm.

Nicolai growled and glared at Amelia. “Did you say that?”

“No!” Bea answered.

“Shut up, wolf! You are not the one that the next alpha is asking!” Vera said.

Bea growled. If it was not Nicolai, she would shift now and claw Vera. “Because it’s not–”

“Stop!” Nicolai shouted and went in front of Amelia. She groaned when he held her arms and pinned her to the bus. “Did you tell them anything?”

Amelia’s eyes widened. “I-I didn’t! We were just going to the human city but–”

“Liar!” Vera shouted.

Because of what was happening at the terminal, a lot of wolves saw it. The twins were going to follow Amelia to the human city. They saw that Nicolai was pinning Amelia on the bus.

“Our mate!” Blue said. He immediately ran and pushed Nicolai. His claws went out and growled at them. While Amelia was behind him trying to fix her breathing.

Grey also ran to the place and held Nicolai by the neck and pinned him on a post. They were shocked to see that their next alpha was pinned on the post.

“What do you think you’re doing to your next queen?!”

Vera’s eyes widened. She stared at the two men who had just come. “T-They are the princes!” All of them bowed at the Grey and Blue.

Amelia managed to calm herself out. Her eyes widened seeing that Grey was holding Nicolai by the neck. Nicolai was the next alpha that was initially strong. But the werewolf was never a match to a Lycan. Especially since Blue was in front of her and was alert too. She saw that Vera and her friends were now trembling while kneeling. She doesn’t want anyone to get hurt because of her.

“G-Grey! Stop!” Amelia held on to Blue. She was relieved when Grey let go of Nicolai. But he remained growling at him. “Grey, please!”

Grey groaned and glared at Nicolai. “You are lucky because it was a request from our mate. If you dare touch her again, I won’t think twice about cutting your throat!”

Nicolai’s eyes widened. He looked at Amelia. “Y-Your mate?”

“Yes! Is there anything wrong with that?”

Nicolai couldn’t believe that Amelia had found her second mate. But he knew that it would be a fool of him if he fought these princes. Nicolai growled in submission. His authoritative aura suddenly went away. He might be the next alpha, but his strength was nowhere compared to those princes. He looked at Vera and pulled her out of the scene without saying anything. Her friends followed them.

Blue then calmed down and turned to Amelia. “Are you okay?” He helped her stand up. He also removed the dirt and went to her dress. Everyone was shocked to see how affectionate Blue was to Amelia.

Amelia blushed. She nodded. “I am. Thank you.”

“What happened here?” Grey asked.

Bea went to Amelia’s side. She was looking at Vera’s group walking away from them. “They always bully Amelia. This is our everyday life that I am always trying to stop. I don’t know why they keep on doing this to her.”

“I should’ve punished them!” said Grey.

“It’s okay, Grey. I don’t want them to have more reason to hate me.”

“But it’s not your fault, Amelia!” Bea exclaimed. She held Amelia’s hand. “You should fight them!”

Amelia smiled bitterly. “How can I even fight our soon-to-be alpha?”

“I can’t believe this. Let’s go,” Blue said.

Grey followed Blue with his stares. He was going to the woods. He instantly learned what he was going to do. “But it’s still the afternoon.”

“Lycans are different from wolves. You know that, brother.”

Amelia and Bea looked at each other.

“What does he mean?” Amelia asked Grey.

Grey smiled at Amelia. “Let’s follow him.” Then he pointed his hand in the direction. “Oh, I think your friend shouldn’t come with us.”

“Huh? Why?”

Grey looked at Bea. “I hope it’s okay for you.”

“W-Well, it is. But I don’t want to leave Amelia if she doesn’t want to.” Bea looked at Amelia.

‘It’s okay, Amelia. You can trust our mates,’ Lily said from Amelia’s mind.

Amelia was still confused. She tightened her grip on Bea. She doesn’t want her friend to go. But Lily was right. They have two mates now. So, she must at least trust them.

“It’s okay, Bea. Let’s meet again later.”

“Okay. Take care.”

Bea left. Then Amelia looked at Grey and nodded. Amelia suddenly felt nervous as they started walking. She could still feel Vera’s hand on her neck. Her skin still stings because of it. Now she was hyperventilating again because of something she felt they were going to do. She was still adjusting to her new life. Having mates was something she never expected in her life.

The four of them reach the woods. The place was clear and they could only hear the bird's noises from afar.

“What are we going to do here, Blue?” Amelia asked.

Blue removed his jacket. Amelia just stared at him as he slowly removed his clothes. Her eyes widened when she saw that Grey was also removing his clothes. She immediately turned around as she felt the same feeling she was having earlier.

‘What are they doing?!’

‘Just trust them.’

“We, Lycans, are different from the wolves, our mates. We can shift to our beast anytime we want,” said Blue.

“You might want to remove your clothes too. Or let it rip out.” Grey.

Amelia frowned. “Will I transform now?” she asked. Then Grey suddenly went to her front. Her eyes widened and she didn't even dare to look down. She stepped back but she felt Blue behind her too. “I-I don’t know how to.”

Blue touched the strap of Amelia’s dress. “Remember, Amelia. You are not weak. You are not worthless. You are special,” he whispered to Amelia’s ears. Then he slowly pulled down the zipper of Amelia’s dress.

Amelia gulped as her breathing became hard. Blue’s words were like music to her ears. She heard this from Bea but it felt good when it came from her mate. She gasped as she felt her body covered by the cold afternoon breeze. There she noticed that her dress had already fallen down. A soft moan went out of her throat when Blue kissed her shoulder.

Grey touched Amelia’s chin and locked her eyes on his. He kissed her lips. “Close your eyes, mate. Control your feelings. Feel your beast and let her take over your body. Ask her to be one of you and let her come out.”

“It might hurt you a bit for your first time. But we are here for you, mate.” Blue kissed Amelia’s neck.

Amelia’s mouth opened as she felt a thousand sensations coming from Blue’s kiss. She felt Grey’s warmth in her hands. Then she followed Grey’s instructions. Amelia closed her eyes and thought of Lily. Then she felt her heartbeat slow down. There she saw from her mind Lily’s form. A red Lycan. She smiled as their eyes locked. Those dark purple eyes. Her beast looked different from the Lycans she knew. Lily howled and when Amelia came back to her senses, she saw that her hands were covered by red fur.

‘Oh my God, Lily! We transformed!’ Amelia said happily.

“Whoa! You are enormous!” Blue laughed. Then he also transformed into a white Lycan. Grey also joined and his fur was brown.

Amelia giggled and then let Lily run. Her mates followed her as they let their beasts play in the woods. Amelia couldn’t contain her happiness. Finally, after waiting all her life. She thought that she was a nobody. She thought she was a weakling. But surprisingly, she was a Lycan and she just shifted to her form. And it is all thanks to her twin mates. Her two mates.

‘Run, Lily, run!’ Amelia shouted in her mind while laughing with happiness.
