Read Mated to the Alpha Twins [by Jane Doe] Chapter 58 – I found myself standing in front of Tori’s house the next day, my stomach a bundle of nerves. Even though it seemed like she had forgiven me, I knew I caused a rift to form between us. I knew my reasons for leaving were justifiable, but I couldn’t erase the pain I caused in my absence. Just as I had the right to leave, she had the right to be upset.

Crawling into bed with Alec and Kade last night, they both promised to support me regardless of what I told Tori. After asking my permission, Alec and Kade entrusted the information to their Beta’s, asking if they would dig up any information about white wolves. That’s where Alec and Kade were today, helping their Beta’s learn more about me and what I might be capable of. We all knew it was risky to tell Tori the full truth, but I wanted to trust her. I wanted to go that extra mile for her.

As I waited for Tori to come to the door, each passing second made the knot in my stomach grow. I gritted my teeth together and remained in place, resisting the cowardly urge to flee. I wouldn’t run, not anymore. I reminded myself that this world wasn’t new, it had been here the entire time, hidden right under my nose. Despite my cowardly feelings, I knew I belonged here. I could feel how my heart sang in this pack, how comfortable I felt in this town and around these people. Someday, I reminded myself, these people would become my own.

Tori opened the front door with a wry smile, surprise shining in her eyes. Instead of searching for her emotions, I let them wash over me. Surprise, suspicion, and a sweet note of happiness. It was becoming easier for me, feeling the emotions of others, now that I learned not to force my ability.

“Come on in.” Tori murmured, holding the door open for me. “Want something to drink? Mom made some sweet tea.”

“Sure.” I nodded, following her into the kitchen.

I stood in comfortable silence as Tori padded over to the fridge, pulling out a large pitcher of tea. Her fire-kissed hair was tied up in a bun on her head, a few orange strands fanned out over her forehead. The two of us walked up to her bedroom, and I plopped down on the edge of her bed where I had once sat before.

“Alright, spill.” Tori pursed her lips. “What happened when you left? You said you were almost taken. Who? Why?”

I took a long gulp of the sweet tea she had given me, letting it wash down my throat as I thought of the words to say. Now that I was here, the words lodged themselves in my throat. Tori’s wariness was like a knife slashing at my insides. Burning guilt filled my veins, but I knew I deserved the reaction.

“I’ll just start when I left. I made it to this small down, and actually got a job at a local bakery. I actually loved working there. One night, I was walking back to the house I rented, and three men attacked me. They smelled..different. Alec and Kade said they were werewolves–like us. I think Thalia–my wolf, knew Alec and Kade were nearby. So, we shifted. Hurt like h**l too, not that I stuck around long enough for anyone to explain that part.” I grimaced, readying myself for Tori’s inevitable reaction. “I managed to get away from the men, and I ran, but not before they saw I was a white wolf. I ended up at this woman’s house. She–she helped me realize a few things, that I was wrong for leaving. She was also a white wolf, the last one until I came along. Alec and Kade showed up a little later. They followed my scent until they found me. They told the truth y’know, about not forcing me to come back. They asked me what I wanted, and I decided to stay with them.”

I shifted uncomfortably as Tori collapsed into silence. I traced my fingers along the edges of the glass, feeling the condensation dampen my fingertips. Unable to stand the silence for much longer, I let Tori’s emotions wash over me. The wariness had vanished, as had the initial anger at my leaving. Unfiltered surprise washed over me, tart and crisp like a lemon.

Tori nodded, though I felt she was saying
