Any more steps, and I would not control myself. I let out a sigh of relief as Flame turned away from me.

"I made a deal with Zeke. I wanted him to accept you. I have never been against you, Naya. At first, I was worried something like this would happen. Maybe that's why we resulted in violence."

"I have forgiven you, Flame. I have. You don't have to carry that guilt. I am the one you hurt, but I am telling you to let go. The pack is in pain. You are their Alpha."

"Stop talking to me about that!" Flame thundered, causing me to flinch and take a step back. He wasn't himself completely.

"Why are you so angry?" I asked again. "I don't like to see you this way. In fact, this is my first time seeing you this angry. Please calm down and talk to me."

Flame seemed to be caught in the midst of the struggle as he turned his fiery gaze toward me. I knew my question made him confused. He hasn't said the reason why he was so angry.

I was trying my best here. I turned to replace Naya rubbing herself all over Kyle. She was trying to make him listen with her scent, but all Kyle did was look away. What the f*vck was going on? I sighed. Maybe this wasn't the way to get to them. Do I need to use my powers? Do I need to remind them why we were mate in the first place? I was there to heal them.

"Why are you crying? You are not at fault here."

I shook my head. I didn't realize I was crying. "You post about your parents at such a young age. You have every right to be angry, Flame. You and Zeke both deserve happiness. Instead, you came back and met ridicule. You had to fight over twenty wolves to get to this point, and there was no ounce of respect. But what about me?"

Purple energy began to emanate from my very being surrounding Flame in a gentle, calming aura. The room was bathed in a soft, soothing light as I subconsciously channeled my love and the power of our bond to reach both of them. "I have been an omega all my life. I have heard many insults since the first day I entered Wolf Cove Academy. I have had it rough and tough all my life, but I am still here trying to win your love, aren't I?"

Flame glared at me. "That's pathetic."

"Exactly. Now ask yourself why the moon goddess paired the three of us together. I met her, and she had no clue."

His eyes dimmed. "You met the moon goddess?"

I nodded. "And the elderly one. I told Kyle at the border. You were too bothered to have time for me."

His eyes trailed my being. "You are still wearing that dress.

Have you even eaten?"

I waved it aside. He was coming back to his senses. At least to ask if I have eaten. "We are mates, and nothing can break that connection. Please let go of this anger." "You don't understand, Naya. It's overwhelming."

"You have Kyle."

"Yes, but I need someone who is experienced in pack matters."

I nodded. "You have Beta Brooke."

"I need my host."

"You have Zeke. He is a part of you. I mean, didn't you agree to help him? I didn't know you were also clueless, Flame."

He shook his head. "No... I know these things. Do I have to spell it out for you? I need them, but I have them already.

There is one that isn't mine yet. I am so consumed with jealousy that I feel you might turn out like your mother.

Marley is amazing, but I am scared. I am scared you may leave me like everyone else. That's my anger."

I let out a rush of breath. Finally, this was his fear and anger. "I said I can't leave. Have you forgotten? I know Zeke is listening to me right now. Both of you may be angry for different reasons, but Flame, we are bonded, and that bond is stronger than any rage. We can heal together if you allow me."

I glanced at Kyle, who was listening. He was just influenced by his brothers anger. Shadow must have had reasons to follow in the rage, and this must have clashed in their personalities. "I am sorry." I vowed my head to Kyle, who got up with Naya following him. She has done a good job of keeping him in place with her scent.

Slowly, the turmoil within Zeke and Flame began to subside. Their eyes lost their rage, and their growls softened into deep sighs. It was a weak victory, but it was a victory nonetheless.

We were all broken, but with time, we would heal. I grabbed Flame's hands, and just then Zeke came back to me. His eyes returned to their normal shade, and I was engulfed in a warm hug. Before I could protest, Zeke captured my lips in a fiery kiss. Without asking, he slipped his tongue into my mouth, and I moaned in pleasure.

Not long after, I felt Kyle's hands on my backside. From the corner of my eyes, Naya was nowhere to be found.

"I am here." She suddenly said it in my head. I sighed in relief, relishing in their attention.

"Do you want to f*vck them here? You have to break out, or everyone will suffer while you are busy f**vcking your mates." If I didn't stop this, it would go the other way around. The whole pack may end up sleeping with each other. It was now that I realized that whatever strong emotions affected the alpha, they affected the whole pack. Knowing my thoughts, Zeke pulled away, and we stayed there for a while. I closed my eyes, willing everything to return to normal.

The purple lady receded back into my skin, and the purple hue faded away to reveal the manor. It no longer shook with their rage, and the cries of pain from our pack members began to fade. They all stood up, grunting and whining about how rigid their joints were. I opened my eyes to replace myself in the same position.

Fatigue washed over me, and my legs wobbled. Kyle was with me instantly. His strong hand grabbed my waist.

"Easy there." His milky voice made me turn to look at him. I preferred this shade over the other scary Kyle, who broke and destroyed things in rage. What if they killed someone?

Zeke already killed Reid, rendering his mate mateless. Zeke would never forgive himself for this mistake. I observed everyone who recovered from their position.

Elder Freya shook her head in shock. Her eyes were on me immediately. Then she turned to Elder Rosalie to ask if I was the one who did this. Once Elder Rosalie nodded, she gasped. In defeat, she stormed out of the meeting room.

The rest of the elders followed her.

I turned to the other side to see Zeke sitting down. Beta Brooke and Scar were around him, probably trying to reason with him instead of scolding him.

"Get the staff; let them clean up this mess!" Kyle yelled at a group of people, looking like they were lost.

The cleaning began. It may look like I got the victory, but the fact remains that Zeke and Flame didn't acknowledge I was their mate. He did not say he was going to treat me better. I guess I'll just have to be with Kyle for now. I grabbed his hands in gratitude. But there would be a void to be filled in my heart. Zeke was the only one who could fill that void.

"Let's get you to bed. Do you think you can stand?"

I nodded. "I am weak. Take me to my room." The pain was back in my legs. If he doesn't carry me, I won't be able to go upstairs myself.

"I will be there until you have freshened up and taken care of yourself. This time, I won't leave you too." I leaned on him, a bit too tired to say anything.

Was it that tiring to date two wolves? A lot of people might now even be aware that I had two mates. I should ask Elder Rosalie her thoughts about it.

"Is Marley alright?" I tilted my head to the side. I wanted to see her facial expression when she was out two and two together. She should replace out that I am the one who made the twins return. I want her to see my triumphant face.

"She is hanging on. It's the first time I am seeing this myself, so we are all trying to recover quickly. I am sorry, Naya."

He picked me up bridal style, ignoring the shocked look anyone gave us. Why do they seem to forget that I was his stepsister? Although we haven't done anything that suggests that. I lightly tapped his chest.

"I know."
