Another Chance Chapter one hundred and Forty-five
Luke's POVI did not see Carolyn in the hours that followed. I believed that she was staying away from me- avoiding me and I felt like a jerk. How could I hurt my sister like that?“Sir?” One of the guards called out to me, jolting me out of my thoughts.“What is it, Albert?”“Herschel is back and he's asking for you”That was all I needed to hurry to the courtroom where the tall blonde skinny man who always wore black stood with an impatient look on his face as if he couldn't wait to tell me what he found.We locked eyes for a moment before Hershel let out a sigh. “Greetings Sir”The last time expected him, he didn't show up and I knew how difficult it was to sneak around.“Herschel, a surprise to see you here. How have you been since our parting?”He gave a nod in reply. “Good and you, Sir, how have you been? We were not able to visit you as much as we would like to, I am sure you know why”I nodded my head.Herschel and two of his men were our spies, the only link we had with the r

Luka's POVI had dreams where I saw her more than often, dreams where she came back to me at night in the middle of the day. Her presence in my dreams was like a ghost, and so I thought it would never end. But that night… It wasn't my mates haunting presence that woke me. Instead, I woke up because of a sick twisted feeling in my guts that I couldn't place . A gut feeling that made me think that there was something wrong with my mate. Something… That didn’t fit with what my mate looked like. It didn’t fit with how much I loved her. And even if it did, what on earth could be causing this feeling? I yearned for Emily at that moment more than I ever had in my life. She was my heart. My everything. My only reason why I even went through the motions of getting out of bed at three in the morning, which was more of an obligation than anything else. If there was someone I’d rather die than face at that moment, Emily was definitely at the top of that list. She was all I wanted. All I though

Luke’s POV“Now I need you to pick up your swords and I know it seems a little heavy. I will demonstrate the technique with one of the guards here and you'll watch and repeat the same with the other guards. Each child gets a new guard, after that, you'll try it with yourselves“ The female trainee explained.We were going to teach them how to defend themselves. It was a plan I thought was necessary, we needed it.The children looked really nervous, She smiled as she watched their reactions.“Do you understand?” she asked them.“Yes, Laura” they chorused.Laura smiled again satisfied with her work, bowing curtly to me before making her way to get her sword. Moving to the center of the gathering. Everyone was looking at her expectantly, waiting for her to move as well. She just stared at them for a while before beckoning on the head of the royal guards.He was a huge man, easily towering over Laura. He nodded once and walked to stand in front of her as if ready to catch her if needed.

Emily’s POV“So we have to wait for them to come to us?” Carolyn asked as we sat eating.More like they were eating. I couldn't find the strength in me to lift up a spoon, the fight earlier had weighed me down and everything felt so heavy I could barely move. Even though I had managed to get off the bed after I'd vomited my guts out, the dizziness had made it difficult to see where to place my feet and I still couldn't sit upright right now, much less stand up or even walk.But no one knew I had vomited when we got back, I didn't want to attract any attention to myself that way. Not with what was going on at the moment. At least not yet. So the vomiting had seemed to be a good excuse. Hopefully, no one would be too concerned by it because I really didn't want anyone to be worried about me or try to help me right now. “Yes,” Luke answered. “I heard the attack is taking its toll on them and they don't even know who their enemies are” “Oh,” Carolyn said, looking away from her lunch.

Emily’s POV “Let me in Sara” Carolyn’s voice was as loud as her fist that was banging against my door. She was probably getting agitated but that was the least of my concern. I really needed to talk to someone about it because I felt like if it didn’t stop soon I would explode into a thousand pieces like those old broken-down automobiles you could always find at the bottom of the ocean. You never know when your life is going to take a turn for the worse, or just for the better but right now I couldn’t think about what to do. She kept on knocking so hard it sounded like she was hammering on wood from a distance, probably trying to break down my door. I wasn’t even sure if I would open it until eventually she would give up and go away. Maybe she wouldn’t come back at all. I wish someone would tell me that the man I loved was okay and that… “I know you can hear me, Sara, open the damn door and stop being difficult”. Damn. With one last sigh, I went to unlock the door. When the do

Luka’s POVHow could they? we were literally the same kind! Why? We were literally the same kind so why wouldn't the Lycans lend a helping hand to us in our time of distress? I was angry and frustrated, but I wasn’t going to just sit down and accept it. And you know what else, I would never do that. No matter how much pain we were in. I refused to let this be my last battle. The one thing I have always known about myself was that I would not give up until all of these monsters were gone for good.The Lycan King had laughed in my face, belittling my efforts for an alliance and then he ordered his guards to see me out.Who could imagine the effrontery? I, King Luka, kicked out of the doors like some common criminal? Well, I wasn’t going to take that lying down. I refused to let my people die when I could do something to help them. I needed to turn my anger somewhere else so my fist connected against a tree. It didn’t break, but it certainly did leave a bruise. And that was alright bec

Emily’s POVEverything was just so difficult for me. I knew that this was going to be the hardest year of my life but still… It wasn’t only that I felt like I had failed/ been a failure all my life, but also that I felt like everything around me was going wrong all because of one person… one single person who I could never stop thinking about and couldn’t seem to forget… I sighed, looking up at the sky where there were no clouds, no sun, no anything at all. I tried to keep it all in but I couldn't. Each day, I'd eavesdrop on Luke’s conversations with Carolyn and everyone else in the community. I needed to know what was happening in the outside world, I needed to know if the King was fine - I wanted him to be fine, I needed him to stay alive.I was ashamed to say that I thought about him more than I should, constantly when I slept. In fact, most nights now I lay awake and stared at my ceiling wishing he was here, I wanted him to kiss me again, to hold me in his arms. I wanted so mu

Luke’s POV“Luke? Luke, please listen to me. I just want to talk to you”“Damn it! What are you doing here? this has to stop. This place is not for you, you are not welcome here” I told her trying to understand how she managed to sneak into the place that used to be ours.The place that held so many memories, memories I didn't want to share with her ever again. I wanted nothing more than to keep those memories locked away forever.“This was your safe place once…” she started but as soon as she saw my expression she knew she had made a mistake, “No, I didn't mean that, not like that...this was our... and Luke...”“Stop! Just stop” I pleaded not wanting to hear her words, knowing there was no changing her mind. She needed to leave now or else I wouldn't hesitate to take her out of here. Not again. Never again. I would never be part of some crazy plan she decided to make me, never again.“Just go. Go back to wherever you came from and leave me alone” my voice was filled with hatred, a

Emily’s POV The King’s body was brought back and he was badly stabbed. The seer was trying her best to bring him back to consciousness and I just sat there crying. What if he died? And he never gets to see his child? Why did I lie that the child wasn't his? Currently sitting beside him on the bed, the seer said it was left for him to respond to the antidote or not. I needed more than that, I had been a crying mess for a while and all I wanted was for her to console me, I needed her to tell me that her antidote was going to work and not keep me in suspense. I took his hands into mine “Hey, I need you to wake up please, I am so sorry that I ran away, sorry I said that the child wasn't yours. Maybe when you wake up we will talk this over, because right now, we don’t have time. You need to tell me what to do. Please, wake up!” I cried, as tears poured down my cheeks again. His skin felt cool under my fingers. I felt guilty for hurting him. I should be the one waking up with a broken ar

Luka's POV I know the child was mine, it didn't make sense why Emily would want to hurt me so bad, was it payback? I couldn't tell. “They plan on attacking us tonight” the seer's voice broke through my thoughts. They are the group of Lycans led by their King and they conceal themselves with masks and dark magic but luckily for you, I have made antidotes that would help against their infected bites. You King Luka will get your allies from the outside world and my people and soldiers will get ready. We will move our women and children to the cave at the mountain top and the women who can fight will volunteer as soldiers as well” she continued, her calm and soothing tone calming the anger boiling in the pit of my stomach. “This new army that we have formed is strong enough to defeat them.” I nodded at her words, knowing she knew what I was thinking. Her eyes were sad but not apologetic or regretful, just sadder, tired. The whole town was thrown into total chaos, children and adults ali

Emily’s POV “You thought we were fools this whole time? you planned on what? keep using my brother? Do you know how much he cared about you? All you did was lie to us Sara!” Carolyn scoffed! “Your name is not even Sara” tears streamed down my face as I sobbed uncontrollably into my pillow. What had I done wrong to deserve the anger of these amazing people? Why do I always mess up good things? Why was Luka here? What brought him hear? “I am sorry, I panicked and got scared. I am sorry Carolyn. I didn't think I was ever going to see him again and I wasn't using anyone please” I pleaded. My voice was shaking from crying so hard. I don't know if I will be able to get out any words from my mouth now without crying. I heard a sigh come from the couch before she spoke again “Sara, I mean Emily, I understand why you panicked, but that doesn't excuse everything else” My heart stopped at the sound of her voice. “Right now you have two men out there to face and the last thing they want

Luka’s POV“They were a young couple and they got married and they started a generation of a new kind, the type that was special. Soon like generations, more came, and more left. We honestly thought they had gone into extinct until now. They can't be working alone, not after all this time. They had to be working with someone”Even after I had gone back to home from Lancha, those words kept replaying in my head, and I had nothing to say about them.I needed to find out who these special people were working with and why they were doing what they kept doing to our kind.Was there a previous problem before now? I needed to know.Now my sexual life has been suffering since I got back from Lancha. The thoughts of Emily filled my dreams and they were dreams of us having sex and I ended up masturbating more than I should.For example, last night I dreamt of thrusting into Emily aggressively until I could feel her body trembling beneath me. My cock felt like it was about to burst through my sk

Luka’s POV “I apologize for my people's stare, they are not used to seeing people from the outside world” Alpha Luke's voice broke through my thoughts as we were returning back to his home. He wasn't lying, the people's stare bore holes into my back and I could tell that I was not welcome there. They didn't appreciate my presence and they didn't fail to show it. “When was the last time you had someone from the outside?” I randomly asked. I didn't know why I did it and I probably would have regretted it if he noticed but something compelled me to ask. He paused in his trek before answering me “Months, we found a woman in the woods around our land, she was homeless so we gave her a place. “Didn't you think she was a spy or something?” I couldn't help but point out. It felt weird that they allowed some stranger on their land like that. Wasn't I also a stranger? “You should have seen her eyes, she looked too vulnerable. You'll get to meet her today at dinner. I've never seen anyone

Luka’s POV I was standing on the balcony when I saw a figure pass by immediately. I don't know what was crazier. The fact that this person had blonde hair or the fact that her smell had just hit me caused me to go through a wave of. Could it be? No! it couldn't right? I didn't realize when I started following the figure but the closer I got the more the smile persisted but there was no sign of any blonde hair anywhere. “Going somewhere?” A female voice called out and I came face-to-face with Princess Carolyn. She had a suspicious look on her face as she eyed me up and down. “Yes,” I answered in a small voice before I turned away. This was my fault for not checking who was around first! But I was so curious, I couldn't help myself. What if I really did find something interesting? Well, maybe. Maybe it's nothing at all. But I know what I had perceived. It had to be Emily. “I mean no, I… I just thought I saw someone there” I managed to answer as I quickly tried my best to regain

Luka’s POVEverything after the meeting was off. I could barely eat the food that was served.Something was going on and my Wolf felt it, it was howling and fighting inside of me, clawing its way out to take over. The wolf wanted a piece of this, a human would do as well. It was an urge that I tried to ignore. The wolf had always been there when I needed it, but it was only ever there if my life were in danger. But the more I thought about it, the more desperate I became for answers. My wolf was still there, but it wasn’t fighting anymore. It was just sitting there, waiting for me to make the next move. I knew what I had to do. It didn't help that I could smell her everywhere. Her scent lingered driving me more insane than ever before. I took in deep, deep breaths to try to get her scent out of my nose. But every time, all I smelled was her. She was so familiar, yet I hadn’t been able to find a trace of her since it happened. Not a scent nor a memory. Only her presence remained.The

Luke’s POV“Her blood pressure is very high, she hasn't been resting , her stress level is elevated and she will still be in danger if she continues” the doctor explained. “I don't know what it is but it's obvious she's struggling with the trauma from something in the past and postpartum depression isn’t helping either. It just seems like her mental health isn't getting any better either. I think we should put her on an antidepressant. Maybe a sedative too." The Doctor suggested.“For her long?” I insisted.“Just for today, so she gets to rest and heal. She needs it right now. She'll be fine tomorrow,” The doctor assured me as he walked out of the room and I took his place at the head of my bedside. I stroked her hair gently as tears rolled down her cheeks. She didn't respond but tears fell down her cheek.Who was this woman? What battles was she fighting? What trauma did she hide from us? Why was she afraid? Why didn't she trust us enough to talk about it?The door suddenly opened an

Emily's POVMy Wolf was restless. I don't know what was wrong but I knew something was going on. Something I couldn't place my hands on, right from the moment Luke came into my room to call Carolyn.My curiosity was driving me up a wall, so I left baby Luka in his crib for a few hours and ventured out of my room and stared at the stairs where I could smell a strange scent wafting across the room. It was sweet like honey or maybe lemon juice, and it smelled… How was that even possible? it wasn't possible. There was no way it was possible. Maybe it was just a coincidence but I wouldn't lie, a pang of nostalgia drove me into the past where I didn't want to go but needed too much information at once. And if my Wolf was uneasy, who could blame her?I returned to my room and pushed Luka’s crib back and forth gently. The scent got stronger and I had an urge to take a deep breath, a need I didn't want to feel so bad about.I finally decided to go down to the kitchen but the heat from when
