NEW STORY ALERT!
This one is 14 years after destined. Lana is now 18 Jonah is 30.
Summary
Elana Lupei is trouble. Being the daughter of the legendary Fane Lupei (and his wife and mate Jaqueline Lupei) Elana has made a point to be as bad as she can and to disobey every rule she has ever been told. It isn't that she wants to. It is just that most rules mean she has to stay home and be good. Both things Elana doesn't like and wont do.
The only person eighteen year old Elana will behave for is her brother Dorian. Since Dorian's mate, Cosmina, has just given birth to their daughter (Phoebe) , they can not travel to her so she is going to them without her parents for the first time since she was five.
There she finds herself becoming closer to a certain Mr Jonah Alexandru. A once stray wolf who is her brother's beta. She soon finds that he is her mate.
But matings like this are unheard of and when the mating signs do not show Elana is left wondering if anyone will believe her especially when she is challenged for him by a stray female.
Elena has to then try to win the battle for her mate as well as show her family that she can behave but she is still Elana. Will she do it or will her mate belong to someone else tipping her into darkness.

ELANA'S View
"LANA" my mother called and I sighed walking down the stairs. I pulled my suitcase with me as I walked downstairs. For the first time since I was five I was being sent to my brothers house. However this time I would have no parent scowlding me evertime I got into a scrap.
"LANA, YOU WILL MISS THE CAR" she called as I walked next to her and I held my ear.
"OUCH! Mamma, no need to be so loud and I mean I cant exactly miss the car. It is only here for me" I told her and she sighed.
"Lana please behave for your brother. It is stressfull having a new baby around is stressful"
"I know mamma. Besides when am I not good for Dorian?" I asked and she smiled.
"Yes I forgot you are only a little trouble maker for me" she smiled hugging me and I laughed hugging her back before my father walked into the room.
My father walked into the room with such presents that there was no way you could mistake him for anything other than an alpha.
"Lana" he smiled and I smiled hugging him back.
"Bye daddy" I smiled and kissed his cheek letting go of him.
"Bye baby girl and remember no fighting. I cant save you from the alphas anymore" he explained and I looked at him shocked. I knew I had been a pain for the alphas but I had no idea he had had to save me from them.
"Dad" I sighed and he shook his head at me.
"No Lana I mean it. You are eighteen now and they will punish you like they would anyone else. Please don't let me see that" he sighed and I slumped my shoulders in defeat.
"I will try" I told him and that would have to be good enough. I couldn't make any promises because doing that would mean I was promising to not be me and I wasn't prepared to do that.
"Okay, now you need to go" he told me and I nodded. I grabbed my case and walked to the front door with my parents.
"We will be down soon" my mother told me and I nodded smiling. They couldn't go because Dorian didn't want all the pack there yet. Dorian didn't want any of the pack there with his baby girl just yet. He was worried about the pack's relationship because not all members of our pack liked the fact that Dorian was now leader of the strays.
I got in the car waving as I pulled away from the house. My mother stood in my father's arms waving. I smiled and then sat back in my seat and sighed. Mates.
Most girls were happy to sit around and wait for their mate to turn up but for me that was the worse thing. I didn't do waiting very well and I didn't like sitting around. In my opinion anything a guy could do I could do too and if possible I would always try to do it better.
This was what often got me into trouble. Instead of flirting with other Alpha's sons I fought with them and this didn't normally sit well with them especially because more often than not I beat their sorry asses.
It was an hour's drive to Dorian's new home and, like I had said to my father, I would have preferred to run and stretch my legs instead of being stuck in a car. Except I could think better in the car and it also gave me time to sleep and normally I did both.
I closed my eyes and let the soothing motion of the car send me to sleep.
My dream wasn't pleasant. I was standing in a room surrounded by the alpha's, including my brother and father. I stood in the centre of them and one by one they all said one word. "guilty". My father looked at me sympathetically and sighed.
"Fane Lupei what is your choice" My grandfather asked and I looked at him scared.
"I am sorry baby girl" he told me and I shook my head tears spilling down my cheeks.
"Da what have I done?" I asked and he shook his head in shame.
"Guilty" he told me and I screamed out.
"NO!" I yelled and then my grandfather turned to Dorian.
"Dorian?" He asked and I shook my head again.
"I cant Forgive you" Dorian spat and I sobbed.
"Dorian no" I begged. My own brother hated me. What had I done?
"Guilty" he snapped and people nodded in agreement.
"Elana Alexandria Lupei you have been found guilty by all alpha's and you are here by sentenced to death" my grandfather told me and fear controlled me and I began yelling and crying.
"NO GRAMPA NO!" I screamed and two men grabbed me pulling me away from the room.
"What did I do?" I sobbed as I was thrown into a cell. I lay there sobbing and someone came back to get me out of the cell. It was Jonah.
"Jonah thank god" I breathed as he un did the door but his face wasn't kind.
"Don't thank god. You deserve to thank the devil" he snapped.
"Not you too"
"You think I wouldn't. You need to pay for what you did"
"What did i-"
"Shut up! You disgust me" he snapped and pulled me by my hair out of the cell and into a room where sticks were set up and I gasped. They were going to burn me!
"No! " I begged and looked at my dad who glared at me.
I was tied to the pyre and screamed as they set fire to the logs at my feet.
The flames burned. I could feel =them on my legs burning me. It was awful. The head was unbearable and as it reached my stomach a new fear set in. My baby. I was pregnant.
"NO!" I screamed again but no one ran to save me. I felt myself dying and no one cared. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I looked at Dorian and my father and then my grampa. All of them watched intently as I burnt.
I woke up with a start as the car stopped. I swore and fumbled with the car door running out to Dorian who looked at me upset. I hugged him close and he wrapped his arms around me protectively.
"Whats wrong?" Dorian asked looking at the driver who cowered in the car.
"Nightmare" I told him and he nodded and hugged me.
"You are okay" he told me and I nodded sobbing into his chest as I explained.
"And you and Da, you just let me die" I told him and he looked mortified.
"Never" he told me and I nodded calming down. I hugged him once more and then whipped my eyes turning to the house smiling just as Cosmina and Jonah walked out Cosmina holding a small baby in a pink blanket in her arms.
Jonah
I knew that Elana had arrived when I heard her voice. She sounded worried and upset. I walked out of the house quickly Cosmina following me. When Elana saw me she smiled and ran to me hugging me. I wrapped my arms around her waist and I smiled picking her up off the ground. She smiled and kissed my cheek in a friendly way. I knew that was all we could ever be. Strays didn't mate with actual cannius Lupis. They didn't even date. So I was left being a friendly brother like figure to the girl I had loved and wanted since she was fifteen.
"Hey Elena, what's all the tears?" I asked and she smiled at me setting herself down on the ground.
"Nightmare, nothing new" she told me and I nodded smiling at her.
Elena was beautiful. She had long curly ginger hair and light blue eyes. She was small and petite which meant I always dwarfed her when she hugged me. I smiled and tried to ignore the fact that my heart beat had sped up and that my mind was telling me to press her up against the wall and kiss her.
That voice had always been in my head around her so I had tried to distance myself from her. Normally with other women. I loved none of them but it meant I was away from her and less likely to make a fool of myself. After all she was eighteen and I was thirty in human years. That was hardly a base for a relationship.
I sighed as he pulled away from me and I found myself watching her as she walked over to Cosmina cooing at the baby girl taking her gently from Cosmina's arms.
I smiled and watched. She cradled the baby rocking her gently. That's when the voice started again. Imagining her pregnant with my child. Her stomach swelling under a top. Her in my arms every night as we slept. Holding a small baby in her arms of her own.
No! A voice inside my head growled and the voice stopped.
"Fine imagine the baby as someone elses. The two of them together. Her loving him kissing him. Him holding her in his arms biting her. Giving her the perfect baby. Making-" The voice began and I found myself having to walk away. I was raging. The images filled my mind and they were unbearable.
STOP! I yelled in my own mind and stormed into the house leaning against the wall.
My head went quiet and in that moment I knew. I knew that Elana Lupei was my mate. My one true love and the other half of my soul.
Either that or I was an obsessed man with paedophilic tendencies.
Cosmina
Watching Jonah I frowned. He looked troubled and angry as he stormed into the house. When he had walked out the door the first thing Lana had done was go to him and hold him. Anyone looking would have presumed the two of them were in love. The way he lifted her off the ground and held her close to him and she pressed her lips to his cheek. But in the last two years Jonah had been off with other women. He had seemed to lose interest in Lana just as she began to really seem into him.
It confused me but I knew somehow something would be worked out. It had to be. I mean the two of them, when Lana had been growing up were like siblings. Jonah was always protective of her and whenever she would be upset growing up he would do everything he could to make her happy. He had even gone to the extent of hitting a human guy because he had tried it on with her.
I sighed and looked at Dorian who now held our baby girl. I walked over to him and he smiled at me. I looked at our baby, Phoebe, and smiled. She was perfect. With little tufts of blonde hair coming from her head. She was amazing and I loved that everyday I would wake up to her and my wonderful mate who I loved so dearly.
I smiled and kissed his cheek and his arm wrapped around my waist silently pressing me to him. I looked up at him and then back to our baby girl. In t"Nice to have you here" I told her and she smiled.
"Nice to be here and don't worry mamma already told me about the whole behaving thing" she smiled and I laughed shaking my head.
he last few years Dorian had become more and more loving. Something which I had thought was impossible.
I looked at Lana who held her suitcase and was beginning to walk to the main house. I smiled and hugged her quickly.
"It is fine, you always behave at home when we are around" I told her and she laughed.
"That's because Dorian doesn't tell me that I have to be a girl" she scoffed and this time I laughed.
"You sound like my mother" I laughed remembering my Mamma when I was around her age.
"Mamma says that a lot too" she laughed and I smiled.
"Well she is right, now come on I will show you upstairs" I told her and looked at Dorian who nodded.
We both walked up through the house smiling. It was nice having Lana here. It meant I had someone to spend some time with as well as someone to help.
It was going to be great and hopefully she and Jonah could sort things out too.
