Second chance mate
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The earth beneath her feet slipped. Chase was quick to get a hold of her. The pain was eliminated within her eyes.
‘’They said, I am not theirs’’ she whispered, barely audible for his ears only.
‘’Who are her parents?‘’ Chase turned to Albert who hissed at me.
“How will I know? She is sold to you. I have payment for the years of love I provided. It was worth it. Albert walked out on them
‘’You should leave, my parents will never be hers. It feels good to let the truth out. We all have been suffocating all this year'’ Paris pushed Mirrod up Front.
‘’She should accept the rejection, we do not want her in our lives again. A baby dumb by her parents in another pack’s forest means she is cursed and not needed.
Who wants something to do with a freak whose eyes are purple and hair as long as that of a serene one? I won't be surprised if they were just too ashamed to claim you as theirs, the reason why they dumb you’’ Paris words was harsh, but it added volumes.
“‘I, Emandra Carter, accept your rejection’’ Emandra felt the pain like never before. It clouded her view, she felt her wolf howling. inside Ursula watched Chase carry Emandra into the car. She was barely conscious, her eyes looking up to the woman she had referred to as mother all her life. She felt nothing, her eyes were so cold just staring back at her.
‘’How could I have missed all the details?’’ Emandra laughed, her voice so weak.
“Now I know I was just a means of making money for you”’
Ursula sneered “You were never ours to love, we only pretend to love you because we suspect you would be Luna. Well, Paris is, and what better opportunity than selling you for extra cash as payment for all the wasted years?’’ The car door closed in her face. Ursula watched them drive away, holding her tight as her tears soaked his shirt. She made no sound because he needed not to be told. She was crying.
Their ride back home was a quiet one. Chase carries the sleeping Emandra back to her room. He watched her all night. Haze could feel her wolf waking up. She was hurt, but something within her was beginning to manifest. Chase vowed not only to make them pay but also to show the world how wrong they had been for treating her so badly.
Emandra woke up feeling light-headed. An intoxicating scent lingered within her room.
‘It will do us some good if we take our bath first’’ Emandra's eyes flickered.
‘’You are back’’ she half screamed. The hurt was gone; it felt like all the love she had once felt for Mirrod was nothing but a joke.
Emma had been sleeping for a while, but her absence was greatly missed. The memories of her parents flash through her mind.
‘’I wish I could connect the dots back then like I do now’’ Emandra tells Emma it was easy to justify so much. Everyone aside, Luna and Alpha regarded her not as the daughter of the beta. She was always given leftovers and most pack members did not know of her.
Her birthday was all about Paris, even the gifts brought by others carried her name and not hers. Now it made sense but why? Why did they have to try to be in her good book when they were not comfortable with treating her as one of them? Paris was often led out, she would go shopping with her mother but for some weird reason, she would always be left home with one excuse or the other.
She has always given in to Paris from dresses, shoes, and whatever Paris wanted that was hers, must be given to her. she thought it was something common with younger siblings
``well it isn't. your eyes are purple Emandra, theirs is green’’ her wolf tells her. Yes, that was an important quality but she has always been made to wear contacts of the same eye shade as Paris, with the excuse people would think she is a freak.
Emandra pulled herself away from the bed, if she wanted to know more, she had to live on.
‘’I am sorry Emma he does not deserve us’’, she apologized to her wolf, she had been the one to request the rejection
‘’I would rather have a chosen mate than have him as a fated mate’’
“‘Talking of chosen mate don't don't you think Alpha chase is hot.’’
Emma purred, Emandra could not believe the hormones of her wolf. If she had not been in her head, she would give her a good slap.
‘’He is hot but we are only here to be his breeders, you should get ready to have pups not drool over him’’
Emandra was done getting her hopes up, ‘’we will see’’ Emma hoof tucking herself back into the dark.
Emandra knew it was not time to deal with her. She had so much to find out about herself and her silly wolf was not going to get her distracted.
She went in for a bath, in a better mood, she hadn't felt like this in a long time. She could now appreciate her quarters. Her bathroom was huge, way bigger than her bedroom at home, It had everything from mirrors to nicely folded towels, shower gels, and lady sanitary of every brand and type.
The product won't be finished even for the next year or two, her walking closet was to live for. It had dresses from famous designers she had only dreamed of. bags from every collection and shoes were to die. Jewelry was an understatement.
Emandra planned on exploring the castle and only wore a blue shirt and black sweatpants, her waist-length black jet hair falling behind her like a serene. No makeup, she was beautiful and her purple eyes only made her stand out even more. She steps out of her room, and a guard by her door gently bows
“Good morning Luna’’ Emandra stared at him for a long time not knowing how to return such greetings.
She wasn't their Luna, certainly not. the intoxicating scent from earlier clouds her mind. Whatever that was she wanted, she could feel herself walk through the door next to hers, the closer she got the stronger it became. Emandra opened the door. Delilah stood above the bed, someone lay in bed, and three men in black all turned to her. It was neither of them. It was coming from the man sleeping, she quickly rushed over to him, and they all stepped aside
"mate" Emma spun and jumped happily in her head.
“‘How can Chase be our mate? I just got rejected by Mirrod’’ Emandra asked her wolf, not sure if it was some kind of trick of hers to lure her into Chase’s arm.
“‘Second chance mate, we've been blessed.” ’Emma tells her
Emandra knew of it, very few got second chances mates, The odds of it and to think she was now included in those few.
“‘What's wrong with him?'’ Emandra looked at Chase who was rather pale and for some reason she felt as if he was dying. She reached out to feel his body, he was burning so much yet his skin remained white. As that of a ghost.
‘’Luna, there was an attack early this morning at the border. He was injected with wolfbane. Mixed with a fetal amount of silver” Delilah cried. Emandra’s body stiffened, and blood drained from her face. Wolfsbane was deadly, just a little could kill an ordinary werewolf. But she was still fighting, he sure deserves the little of The strongest Alpha.
‘’ What do we do?’’ she asked. His wounds were all healed. But he just wasn't waking up.
His temperature was too quick to rise and so quick to fall. It felt more like his body was going through a fire and ice contest.
“‘Luna, we wait, the portent has been drained from his system but his bloodstream got some. Living all depends on him’’ Delilah and the three men walked out leaving her alone she didn't know when but she was crying and so she had to cover her mouth to hold her sobs. Before Delilah closed the door, she said something even more shocking.
‘’He may not want to live, so brace yourself for what may come next’’ She was gone before Emandra could ask questions. She just lost her first mate and the second is lying before her fighting for his life.
Why was life this cruel to her, night came and there was no change, Emandra’s body felt numb. She has been sitting in the same position but she dares not move. she was scared to blink, she feared he would stop breathing if she moved away. She had nothing to eat and wanted nothing. All she wanted was him, and his temperature kept fluctuating throughout the day.
‘’Goddess, if you could give him back to me, I will do anything he wants. I can't lose him too, not now, not ever’’
“‘You will do anything'’ Yes, anything. Emandra did not realize it wasn't Emma talking but someone else, or rather something dark.

Ever since the departure of Emandra, Mirrod, and Paris have been going at each other like there is no tomorrow. Yes, it was a good thing to watch the lovebirds bond and express their feelings. While everyone was happy, and waiting for the Luna ceremony, Luna Henrietta shared another view. She was not happy, she felt something was not right with everything that was happening. With the sun giving way to the moon. Luna Henrieta sneaks into the Alpha’s office. She had a hoodie over her head and her scent disguised. ‘’You know we should let the alpha know Luna" her maid tells her. It was not the first time they were making use of the secret passage hidden within common view and known just to royals. " He doesn't understand my fears, '’ Luna Henrietta sighs. She loves Paris, and she would want nothing more than to have her as a daughter-in-law, but the Absence of Emandra has made her weary of the looming danger slowly blowing within the horizon. They walked within the night, the secr

Emandra felt her breath hitched, she suddenly couldn't breathe. Something was taking hold of her body. Shadows hovered under her feet. ‘’We are at your service daughter of the moon’’ they said in unison. A sudden flow of energy surfaces within her, she is scared…scared of herself. Something was wrong with her and she could feel it. Whatever was happening was coming from deep within her, it was a part of her which had been suppressed for a long time. "Who are you? What do you want?" she asked, trying to step back, but it was of no use. They were shadows. The shadows stared at each other and laughed. ‘’When the moon shines at its brightest, so do you, daughter of creation, the one after her mother's heart, we are just servants. We serve to be served, the witches of Altera hold the key to all answers you seek. Seek them out and you shall know, but be warned. It all dwells down to a price, a price steep and deep’’ Emandra suddenly felt dizzy. So much power. ‘’I…I am not who you thi

Chase carries Emandra back to bed. When he was done dressing he stepped out for his office. Enzo and Delilah have been waiting for him. The moment they lay eyes on him everyone fell silent. He looked too good to have just woken up from a near-death situation. ‘’If you keep staring at me like that I might have your eyes plugged out’’ Chase joked. Enzo laughed nervously. He was happy to have him back. ‘’What has been happening in my absence?” Chase glanced down at the pile of files that needed attendance. ‘’The rogues vanished without a trace and nothing seems to be moving towards finding how or why they attacked us purposely’’ Enzo robbed the bridge of his nose. He was tired, it's been days of findings and tracing yet nothing could be found. ‘’We have had limited or no Rogues attacks in the past years. Hunting has always been their motive however this time they came with an objective. I feel war is just within our grasp'’ Chase, glances over to Delilah who has been quiet. It was v

The sound of shattered glasses rang through the rogue castle. Alpha Kendrick was furious. Not only did his men come back without the girl but they came back with the news of Chase being back on his feet and healthy as ever. ‘’Just one job and you can't get it done, how powerful is Chase Lobswell that you can kill him huh?’’ he raised one of the rogues to the air, his long claws digging into his flesh. ‘’Alpha we did inject him…we saw him fall to the ground and his breath felt numb ...we don't understand. Every alpha we have killed in the past has been with this method and now one lasted for a day’’ a second rogue said, trembling. His colleague was long dead as Alpha Kendrick toast the dead body to the floor, blood staining the white floor. Maids were quick to begin cleaning while the dead rogue was carried away. He was a devil but he was also a neat freak, something his sister hated so much. ‘’Bring forth the witches’’ Kendrick did not like disappointing his sister, she was his wo
Alpha's Swapped Bride Truth about him
Mara has not been herself ever since she visited with the queen of the kingdom of Rogues. She paid less attention to her duties and often had her mind in the clouds. How could she tell them all that the one they all served and were ready to give their life to was the same person plotting their demise? She avoided Luna and only presented herself when necessary. Mirrod walked into his father’s office fuming in anger, he just left his mother's chambers and their conversation was not a pleasant one. ‘’Shouting at your mother is not a great quality of a future alpha”’ Roger Wicks Cautioned his son. But Mirrod was not ready to hear any of it. ‘’How can she say Paris is not the right person for me? How can she tell me to go search for Emandra and apologize for everything, I mean who would want a late bloomer for a mate?’’ Mirrod groaned. Paris was his preferred woman, she was obedient, less nagging, and more productive. He has always wanted a woman who can protect herself, and Emandra

Chase has been in his office all day. Everything was trashed out, files torn apart, tables flipped over, and traces of blood all over the walls. ‘’Wow, we will have to renovate the entire study this time around’’ Enzo voiced out, walking into the trashed-out study. Staring at the chase who still had his back to him, his aura was all over the place. ‘’Alpha?’’ Enzo was not sure Haze had given control back to Chase. He was angry he was furious at him for hurting their mate. ‘’Alpha, you have to give control back to Chase please, we have urgent pack issues to take care of and I know just how much you hate the paper work’’ Yes it was the magic word. While Chase took care of human business, Haze was rather a fan of the wild and battle. ‘’Enzo what's wrong’’ Chase sits over the broken table. His wounds were all healed but the scars of the previous night reminded him of just how much he had fought for control with Haze. ‘’Chase, why do you insist on locking him away? We all know how muc
Alpha's Swapped Bride The first shift
Chase woke up feeling woozy and googly. He didn't sleep early and the little effect of the Vodka made his night even more extraneous, sleep was hard to come. He twisted and turned for hours before his body and mind finally gave way to rest. He takes a quick shower and joins Enzo with the Gammas. Everything was moving smoothly, the courtyard was getting the final touch of decoration while Omegas made everywhere clean and dirt-free. The cooking for the feast was handled by them. Everything was going well, except for his thoughts. The first shift was no child play and he knew just how painful it gets, he glanced over the stairs to her balcony window. The curtains were closed, she did not seem to have woken up. Chase went ahead with the Gammas while Enzo stayed behind to address the ceremony. Emandra woke up to a gentle knock on her door, she stretched out before reaching for the door. ‘’Good morning, Luna’’ an omega greeted walking her way in while two others followed with a tray of b
Alpha's Swapped Bride White wolves
It's been a week and Emandra avoids chasing like a plague. She would often stay indoors and when his scent became overwhelming for her, she would step out late in the night and enjoy the serenity of the garden. Making friends in a new place would be lovely and she craved some company, she was angry at herself and her other halves. Their silence was driving her crazy but she was too angry to give in. While Emma would not say even a word, the twin shadows would hover under their feet trying to get her attention. They have been coming out more often which was rather annoying. She could not go out during the day for fear they would be spotted by everyone. She could still visualize the look on the face of Enzo when he saw everything. He was not only shocked but scared as well. He did not like what he was seeing and Emandra did not want to scare others. She couldn't bring herself to leave, she loved him just too much to leave but staying was an even harder option to choose. ‘’Is this ho

Everyone was still in shock when Sofia went ahead to stab her mother. ‘’Why?’’ Mrs. Anderson asked trying to face her daughter, but she only pushed her hard to the ground. ‘’This is for all the lies you told me. All the times you watched me suffer and did nothing.’’ Sofia did not feel remorseful at all. ‘’It's time”’ everyone heard Brandon announce as they put on their masks. Sofia was too late to react as the medication they had prepared themself, came falling on her body. It was not about it falling but threatening it was the main objective. Laan and Laya hover all over the territory making sure no one is left. Victory was finally theirs, but it cost them so much. ‘’Long live the king… long live the queen”’ the lycans all began chanting while the other soldiers joined in. This is what he wanted, he wanted to be accepted, but at this point, it did not bring him joy. So much has happened and the death of Shane hurt more and more thinking of it.

‘’One down’’ Minister Francherster sent words across. Moon Crescent had not only won the battle but the war. ‘’What do we do now?’’ Kelis asked stepping out of his tent. The gammas were doing a total clean before the area turned into a decaying center. ‘’Find the vampire queen, the only tip I have is the dark hills’’ Beta Enzo replied. Mrs Anderson may be a born vampire, but she was not from a royal family. Just like her husband, she has been power desperate making her surround herself with only people with similar thinking as her. Henrietta had not been the first. The vampire army was not just an army to be controlled by any reason why they had not been the one to attack. As the view of Altera came fort, Alpha Ben, Sarah, Paris, and Enzo watched from a good distance as Sofia Anderson all dressed up and ready for war launched for the Red Valley. The death of Keeper only made it easier for them to gain acess to the lands. ‘’They are here’’ Alpha Chase tells everyone. The ground tre

A dress containing more gold than the min, emandra had to put up with the heavy royal golden veil, as she dragged it along with her to the throne. It was only a matter of minutes before she could finally get out of it. As she walked up to her throne, Grandmother Reeker, stood on the front with a proud smile. Years it has been as she dreams of her grandbaby taking over, here her dream has finally become a reality. ‘’No turning, butting, tweeting, swearing, cursing’’’ Emandra listened carefully. She was not sure she would be able to keep away from swearing but saying I do at the moment was more important. She could not wait to get out of her dress. ‘’I Emandra, hereby accept to be the queen of Altera. To rule with a just hand and mind, to put my people first, and the be an exemplary ruler for the sake of the people and the world. I do so swear to bring Altera to greater heights’’ The scepter of royal handed to her by her grandmother shined in the room indicating acceptance. ‘’I he

‘’What?’’ Emandra exclaimed as they all stared at each other, no one dared make a sound. “Shane, what is going on?’’ Emandra turned to her brother who looked like he had so much to say. “‘You won't believe this, but the enemy has been closer than we all knew it from the very start. The Andersons are mixed.’’ Chase and emandra stared at him, not sure what he was talking about. ‘’What are you saying?’’ Alpha Chase asked impatiently. ‘’Mr. Anderson has been married to a vampire all this while and their daughter Sofia Anderson is a ..’’ ‘’hybrid’’ Emandra completed his words. Enzo was listening, he did not know when the coffee mug left his hands, but the shattering sound was enough to wake up Paris from sleep. ‘’We are fucked’’ Enzo cursed. ‘’The great war is just within the horizon.”’ Shane whispers. Rushing to the dungeon, Alpha Chase walks in to meet their prisoners all seated drained and in pain. ‘’Alpha”’ the guards bow in respect. Unlike the others who were almost passed out,

Paris's hands went to her mouth as she tried hard not to scream. ‘’Miss’’ the guard held her, taking her out of the room. If only he had known the content of the box. Beta Enzo walks in just in time to see the guard take Paris outside. ‘’What's wrong?’’ he asked, stepping closer, but Paris was too frightened to talk. ‘’Beta, someone delivered a package’’ the guard tells him, pointing towards the direction of the smiling head. Enzo stood speechless at the sight before him. ‘’Wrapp it up, and bury it’’ he instructed before walking out and taking Paris out of the area. ‘’’ Who would do such a thing? Why will they send it to me?’’ Paris had a thousand questions going through her mind, but there was no answer. She was not on good terms with Ursula but it did not dispute the fact, she was the only mother she had known for a very long time. ‘’Seeing that the package was not sent to Luna Emandra or Shane proves whoever sent it is aware of your relationship with Ursula. Why don't we visi
Alpha's Swapped Bride gift
In the shadows of the night, Ursula crept her way towards the borders, she had so much to do with so little time left in her hands. She was looking for nothing but an escape route. It was time for her to write her mistakes. So much was happening in her life right now that she was not comfortable with. ‘’Gotcha’’ she scrambled to her feets trying to gather herself. It was none other than Emand. ‘’What are you doing here?’’ Ursula asked glancing around. It was unlikely for Emand to be so far away from the mansion without anyone noticing her absence. Unlike the rest of them, she was the pet of the queen. Always seeking attention for relevance. Of Course, Ursula was aware of it, the reason why she had not shared her plans with her. ‘’Leaving without me?’’ Eman asked, visibly irritated. Ursula did not know how to defend herself. Yes, she was leaving and leaving without her. She had so much to take care of and one of it was warming her children. They might be only stepchildren to her but

‘’ It is time’’ a cold voice announced. Everyone in the room was well-armed and ready for war. ‘’We can't go just yet’’ a painting Ursula walked and ran into the room breathless. She looked nothing like the mate of Albert, the mistress of the Carter mansion who adorned herself with expensive perfume and jewelry. In rags and her hair all out she was barely recognizable. ‘’What is it this time around?’’’ the leader asked, sounding pissed. She has been waiting for this moment for the longest time and now that I am finally here a maid of hers was standing in her way. She had zero tolerance for declaring. ‘’They were caught, they were jailed’’ Ursula replied painting. ‘’What?... how can they be so foolish to allow themselves to be caught? Why do I always have to take care of everything personally?’’ Ursula did not say more. She steps out of the building. She could smell the disgusting stench coming from her body, if only she was allowed to bathe as much as she wanted like in the Carter
Alpha's Swapped Bride murderers
Loud gasps echoed all over the ceremonial ground. Every eye was on the ministers as they all stood guiltily. Minister Freda wanted so much to scream and tell the world she had no hand in the sudden demise of the king but were her words enough? Their actions and guilty looks had long condemned them. ‘’What? cat got your tongues? I did tell you yesterday, that it takes two to tangle. You wanted to play chess and I am that opponent who chose you”’ laya stood over the ministers with a wicked grin. ‘’’ Letting you go will be the worst mistake, hence I will be personally in charge of overseeing your death, but that will only have to take place when the queen and king have been crowned.’’ Laya turned to the guards who had long stepped away from the king. They now understood the side they had to arrest, the group of murderers stood not blinking. Not one of them said a word. The more they try to bring up arguments of the innocents the more their minds fail them. ‘’I was only asked to drop
