Ten years ago (Flashback)
The Alpha and Luna of the Night Shade pack had come to visit the Evergreen pack with their twin children, a son and a daughter, Conrad and Anastasia. Conrad and Anastasia had just turned eighteen and were in search of their mates, whereas Denzel was seventeen.
As the parents indulged in their usual formalities, Anastasia forced Conrad to help her find Denzel. Knowing about her secret obsession with Denzel, Conrad did not want to entertain the idea.
"I want to tell him," Anastasia insisted. Though being twins, she was petite in stature, looking younger than her age.
"Don't be stupid. He won't agree to be your mate," Conrad warned seriously, but Anastasia was adamant. It was either Denzel or nobody else as he was the only guy catching her interest.
"But I've turned eighteen. I only don't know who my mate is because I haven't seen Denzel yet. It could be him."
