Mated To My Sister’s Alpha Fiance

Chapter 98
Skylar
Bigger?! 1 ask Jinx in disbelief, yelping when the shadow lycan twists its head in my direction.
I don’t dare to breathe, knowing the shadow lycan is blind. Though, that doesn’t matter. I can tell the moment it senses me, and Irma’s ears flatten against her head when the monstrous creature roars at us.
I look back in horror as several more monstrous figures appear from the depths of the forest, eyes socketed but vacant. These creatures are grotesque parodies of our own wolfish forms. They snarl and snap at one another before falling into line behind their leader, their titanic Alpha.
Oh my god… Irma says through the mind link. “There’s no way we can take that thing down!”
For the first time in history, I agree with my sister. The shadow Lycan’slycan’s Alpha is a towering behemoth wrapped in darkness. Its form ripples with power and it doesn’t take an expert to figure out it isn’t friendly.
*Back away slowly, I advise Irma through the mind-link, but the words are hardly out before the pack of shadow lycans lurches towards us.
We bolt. Our instincts take over, and we become flashes of grey and cream against the greenery.
Jinx growls deep within me. I told you we should have left. She sounds almost smug-if a wolf could be smug-and I push back the irritation that flares up at her comment.
“This is not the time for an ‘I told you so’ moment!”
“Whatever!”
Even though I’m irritated at my wolf, I keep running, knowing my life depends on it. The ground beneath us rumbles as th shadow lycans give chase, their monstrous roars ringing in our ears.
“I don’t want to die!’ I shout through the mind-link, hoping Jaiden or Lucas can hear me before I throw caution to the wind and yell his name. ‘Lucas, where the f*ck are you?!”
“Yes, where the hell is he?!’ Irma agrees.
There is no answer from our Alpha, and my heart pounds like a drum in my chest as I push myself to run faster, faster than I’ve ever run before. Irma’s frantic pace matches mine as we dart through the forest, branches scratching against our fur.
But no matter what, we can’t shake off the lycans. Leaves rustle, and twigs snap under the weight of their feet, their growls growing louder with each passing second.
‘Left, left!” Irma cries out via our mind-link and I follow her command, swinging left so sharply that I feel my paws skid under me before I find purchase again.
I’m afraid we will never get away from the monsters, but suddenly. I hear a loud howl.
‘Alpha Max!’ Irma exclaims. “We are safe!”
The burly brown werewolf snarls and charges forward, with the rest of his pack following him. They outnumber the lycans, but I’m not surprised when most of Max’s men are defeated in a few swings from the shadow lycans.
“You could easily defeat them. Jinx singsongs inside my head. All you need to do is brace what you are!

Chapter 98
Discomfort swirls in the pit of my stomach before I growl at my inner world. ‘Shut up!’
“What are you so afraid of?”
The answer is on the tip of my tongue, but I can’t say it. I’m too much of a coward. Jinx, however, seems to know exactly
what I fear.
‘Being the center of attention frightens you, doesn’t it? That’s why you shy away from people, dress like a nerd, and seldom speak a word. That’s why you don’t join pack hunts and let your sister make fun of you. You’re going out of your way to be invincible, Skylar. And it’s all because you think blending into the background will prevent people from taking advantage of
you again.”
Jinx’s words hit the bullseye, and it’s so painful that I shut my eyes and scream at her inside my head, ‘LEAVE ME THE FCK ALONE!
My inner wolf finally fades away, though it might have been a mistake to get rid of her. When I open my eyes, all I see is shadow lycans fighting werewolves, and we, the werewolves, aren’t winning the battle.
“We can’t just sit here and watch!’ Irma cries, her voice crackling with desperation.
‘But we are just two wolves against a pack of shadow lycans! I retort. I don’t want to sound like we have already lost, but the reality of our situation is grim….and terrifying.
“We are not just two wolves. We are from the Bloodmoon pack, and we are strong! Irma growls before charging forward. ‘Sit back if you want, but I’m going to fight!
Iwatch in disbelief as Irma plunges herself into the chaotic battle, her cream-colored fur standing out starkly against
the black fur of the monsters. She snaps and snarls ferociously, Her body moving fluidly as she fights..
She looks so defenseless compared to them!
Fear surges through me again, not for myself, but for my brave sister. And it’s at that moment I realize I can no longer sit back and watch. I won’t let my fears rule me. I won’t let my sister die alone!
So, with a rumbling growl, I surge forward, my eyes trained on Irma, who is now struggling to defend herself against the Alpha shadow lycan. It’s standing over her, roaring with spit coming out of its mouth.
It’s a frightening image, yet I don’t back down. My muscles stretch and pull as I race across the moss, my claws gripping the ground before I propel myself at the lycan.
‘Stop harassing my sister!’ I shout through the mind-link even though the monster can’t hurt me.
What the monster can do, however, is feel my teeth sinking into its muscular arm. It roars in pain and lifts me into the air as it tries to shake me off, yet I hold on like a dog refusing to let go of its favorite toy.
The Alpha’s growls echo like thunder in the dark forest, its enormous paws swiping in mid-air, trying to dislodge me. I’m flung around like a rag doll, but I grip tighter, my fangs sinking deeper into its shadowy flesh, the taste of darkness invading my senses.
“Irma, run!’ I command her through the mind-link.
‘But she stammers back at me,
“Now!” I insist.
“No!” She argues. “I won’t leave you! Not now. Not ever! Now, where the hell is your mate?!”

Chapter 98
Bitterness churns in the pit of my stomach. If Lucas over his powers, and that’s probably why-
+4
isn’t here, then he won’t come. I know that he doesn’t have any control
“You really think I would abandon you?!” Luca*’s voice cuts through my inner monologue.
A rush of joy and relief washes over me, but I don’t let it distract me from my deadly dance with the shadow lycan. Its howls continue to boom around the forest as I rip into its flesh, my heart pounding in rhythm with the beast’s struggles to
off its arm.
But my strength is running out and with it, my patience.
get me
“Where are you?” I ask Lucas through the mind link. His response is a visceral snarl that fills my veins with adrenaline.
‘Coming for you.”
There, in the midst of chaos, an enormous black-and-white harlequin wolf leaps into view. My heart skips a beat when it lunges at the shadow lycan Alpha.
I’m shocked by the wolf’s colors. I’ve never seen Lucas in his world form before. He is..majestic.
