Chapter 33
Oliver POV
The meadow is beautiful today. There is a slight chill in the air signaling the beginning of Fall. I am just admiring the beauty surrounding me.
“Oliver why are you staring at me?”
“You're so beautiful and I am just so grateful that you are actually here with me. I am so glad you gave me another chance.”
“Oliver….”
“Just hear me out I didn’t deserve this chance but you gave me another one. I love you so much and I feel so dumb for wasting time fighting the way I felt. I really don’t deserve you. You are the best thing in my life. The pack is so happy and so much stronger
Chapter Thirty-FourIreland POVIt feels good to be back at the cabin, I miss this place. I don’t have to fear being here anymore. I am more prepared for them if they come than I have been in the past. It is uncomfortable dealing with the pull to go to him though. I need the timing to be right. I want to defeat Alaraick and Josh, I need to so I can heal. I will let my people know I am back and I will find a home for them.“Are you ok lollipop? it can’t be easy being back here.”“I don’t know for some reason it feels right. I missed this place. I even missed the pack and the people. I am not ready to see him yet but I am excited to see some of the pups and other people. I bet you're excited to tell Rose
Chapter Thirty Five-Ireland POVI had been so nervous today when I woke up. I changed my clothes 3 times wanting to look just right. I decided to braid my hair to the side to hide the worst scar on my neck. I had felt so sick to my stomach I was not able to eat. However now standing here in front of him I can’t let that show. “Good Afternoon Alpha.”Hurt flashes through his eyes and he doesn’t attempt to cover it. “Call me Oliver.”“That won’t be necessary Alpha Oliver. I won’t forget my place. This is not a social visit at this time.” I extend my hand toward him to shake. He grasps it and the tingles are still there but they are dull now. I don’t let him see that
Thirty Six-Ireland POVI take deep breaths after leaving Oliver’s office. It would be a lie to say he does not affect me. Just having his arms wrapped around me and his face pressed into my neck made me need a fresh pair of underwear. His smell was so intoxicating it did things to my head and to my body. I feel like I’m at battle with myself, part of me, the hurt part wants to forget all about him and make him pay. The other part of me who still believes that he was made for me wants me to run back to him and make him ours and forgive him for everything. Forgiving and forgetting are two very different things and I don’t know which side will win in the end. I second guess my decision to come here that is until I walk out of the pack house. I walk into the back yard and my heart is filled with so much joy watching my people intera
Chapter Thirty-Seven-Oliver POV-I am standing up here in front of my whole pack wearing this black tux to watch my best friend get married. All I feel is jealousy and shame that I was not here with my mate. I have made so many mistakes and I only hope she will let me make it up to her. I am standing there next to Jackson lost in my thoughts and the music starts. I look down the aisle and see Ireland begin walking up. She looks radiant, radiant is the only word to describe her in her black womens tux with rose gold glitter top. I can’t help the goofy grin that spreads across my face even bigger when I notice her hair is swept over the other side of her shoulder. She isn’t hiding the scar and I can’t help but feel this is a victory for me. I watch as she raises the microphone to her mouth and begins to
Chapter 38-Ireland POVI wake up, my eyes feel swollen and my muscles feel sore. I feel too warm and like I am restricted. I open my eyes as I stretch out my arms and I hit a firm body. I hear a groan, I jump out of the bed realizing I am not alone. I look at the bed and see very tired Oliver laying there and worse I can tell his shirt is off. I look down and sigh in relief realizing I still have my clothes on so I didn’t do something stupid. The night before came flooding back to me and grimacing at my moment of weakness and he saw it. I see him looking at me cautiously. I recognize that I am not in my room and quickly turn and leave going to my room through the bathroom and lock the door.I sit on my bed with my face in my hands. I am so embarrassed. I wait til I hear him f
Chapter Thirty-Nine-Oliver POV“Luna” I turn my head to see Ireland walking by after exiting the packhouse, look at Isabelle and greet her. If looks could kill Isabelle would be dead. She then continues to walk quickly to a White Jeep with no roof or doors parked off to the side. I see her jump into the drivers side with Chris in the passenger seat. She pulls out quickly without a glance back at us. I can’t stop the annoyance that bubbles up at seeing them leave together.“Oh no Oliver you didn’t tell her about me?”“I honestly didn’t have time and to be honest it hasn’t been my focus.”“You have no idea what you have done?”
Chapter 40-Ireland’s POVMy eyelids feel heavy as I force them open, thankful that the light in the room is dim. I grunt as I try to move myself to a sitting position realizing I am in a bed. I see movement in the room and realize I am in my room. I see Erik and Chris close to the bed, Lilly is off to the side, Zander behind her with his arms wrapped around her waist, Elder Rose sat in a chair near the bed and in the far corner in the room stood Oliver head down in the shadows.Elder Rose spoke first “my dear sweetheart tell us what happened?”I turned to her, “I was coming back to my room when I saw…” The words catch in my throat. Chris hands me a glass of water, I take a few drinks. “Any way I saw
Chapter Forty one-Erik POVIf I could kill him without causing her any pain then I would do it without hesitation. He has her staying in her old room and then he obviously does not tell her about Isabelle. When I heard that lil wolf call her Luna Isabelle I thought I could turn right there and rip his throat out. He really made that worthless former mate of mine his Luna. Well I guess they deserve each other. I don’t know why I had listened to Jason and Jackson when they would tell me how much he changed. I was actually hopeful and rooting for him. I had been waiting for the right time to approach the topic of forgiveness with Ireland. I pick up the chair in my grandmother's dining room and throw it at the wall effectively breaking it into pieces.“Erik are you okay bab
This journey for Ireland and Oliver is over. Thank you all for your support and love. Below is the first chapter of my book Living With His Mark. This will be Olivia's story. I hope you all enjoy! I will not mark this book as complete until all editing is complete.Chapter One-(Olivia POV)It’s days like today that I truly hate being a werewolf. My name is Olivia Silvers. I am the 19 year old daughter of Alpha Oliver and Luna Alpha Ireland. I have had an amazing upbringing despite my parents' early stressful beginning but I have always felt loved and I have two great packs who have always treated me well. I had never wanted for anything and despite my gifts and my family's gifts I have had no reason to not trust those around me. My parents always cautioned me and my brother to be careful who we trusted. I guess I never learned because here I am hating all that I am because I trusted the wrong wolf.
Chapter Sixty-Four Oliver POV (present time) I am sitting here watching the mating ceremony of Chris and Sophie trying to keep my eyes on anyone but her as she leads the ceremony. I can hear the subtle sadness in her voice and it pierces my heart. I want to run up there and hug her but I don’t deserve it. I know she would only push me away with disgust. I can’t control it when I look up at her as she talks about the sacredness of mates and the future of the pack. I don’t miss it as she subconsciously presses a hand to her now flat empty wound. My eyes drift to where her hand lays before I divert them again. I have been avoiding her both out of respect and fear. I don’t want to bring her anymore pain and fear of what words she may say to me. Many times I have wished I could go back in
Chapter Sixty-threeOliver POV(continued Flashback)I can’t believe what happened, my “chosen” Luna was just identified as my mate's chosen Alpha mate. This has to be some sort of sick joke. I am angry at how Ireland ran off after him. Does she really love him so much that she would go to be with him after he found his mate? Then again I didn’t choose my mate in the beginning and I made so many mistakes. My mother and I have been trying to calm Sophie down. Evelyn has come and got Olivia so she didn’t have to see the breakdown.“He’s...he’s gonna reject me. My mate is going to reject me.”“Dear now we don’t know
Chapter Sixty-TwoIreland POVIt’s been a long 3 months and I can’t help the butterflies I feel in my stomach as I get ready for the ceremony. This ceremony has really been long overdue trying to prepare for night through all the challenges. A soft knock on the door interrupts me from my thoughts, I go answer the door and engulfed into a big hug. I pull back and a soft smile reaches my lips as I look at the smile on Chris’s face.“You ready for tonight?”“Never been more ready for anything.”“I’ll see you down there.” Chris responds then hugs me again and places a quick kiss on my forehead before retreating from the doorway.&nb
Chapter Sixty-One Ireland POV I couldn’t help but feel guilty about what happened yesterday afternoon. I am supposed to be pledging myself to Chris in just a few days but I let Oliver kiss me and I let my mind think things could get better. I let myself think that maybe there could be a life together for us. It was just a brief minute that I allowed these thoughts to invade my mind but they still did before that she-wolf ran up and hugged and kissed him. Chris does not deserve for me to think about a life with someone else he has always been there for me more so than my ex mate. I felt so guilty here I am right after breakfast making him his favorite Lemon blueberry pound cake for after lunch. I wasn’t even able to look him in the eye during breakfast. He hasn’t pressed a
Chapter Sixty- Ireland POV Well I guess the truth is out. He deserves to know the truth but I feel so defensive I can’t imagine that this would go well right now with emotions so high. I look at him on his knees looking so vulnerable and I approach him slowly. I have this need to comfort him and I don’t know why. Before I can reach him he looks up at me with so much anger in his eyes “EXPLAIN!” The anger in his eyes sets me off. He has no room to be angry. If anyone has any reason to be angry it is me. “What do you need explained?” I seeth back. “FUCK IRELAND! Everything needs to be explained. Is she mine and how is that possible and why did you hide it from me.” “Lower your voice.” I
Chapter 59- Ireland POV “I see Belle is back to arguing with you again.” Jason chuckles “Well Jay you know she always likes her opinions known.” I let out a small laugh. I looked around the room. Erik had a guilty look on his face and Jackson and Jason were just looking at me. Oliver however just continued staring in the direction that Chris had left. An unreadable emotion showed on his face. “Alpha Oliver, I apologize for that. Chris will be back shortly.” He just nods slightly, turning his gaze back to me. Chris entered the room wrapping his arms around me from behind resting large hands on my pregnant belly. He kissed me lightly on the cheek. I couldn’t stop myself from looking over to Alpha Oliver who now had his head hanging l
Chapter Fifty-Eight Oliver POV Two Weeks Later When I had returned from my run that night after hours of Finn howling at the moon, I found Sophie in the living room gripping the letter I had dropped when I ran. I was surprised to find her even more eager to meet this Alpha Ireland who had so unselfishly sacrificed herself to save her people and mine. She held me while I cried again telling her the story about my mate and everything I had done. Sophie had never judged me for trying to kidnap Ireland all those times or for how I felt. She admitted that she herself was developing feelings for me though rather slowly and thought it best we start as friends. She encouraged me to reach out and to go to the ceremony to see if Ireland was truly happy now so I could let go. She
Chapter Fifty-Seven Erik POV The fighting has officially ended, I was able to capture Evelyn’s father without injury even though he put up a good fight. The joy in both his and my mates faces when they saw each other was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. He met with Ireland and pledged his loyalty and his hunters to her for what she did saving his daughter. He was excited to meet his grandson. I dreaded leaving them but I needed to check on Ireland and Chris they went to the pack hospital to check on Alpha Oliver. I am approaching the hospital when I see all hell breaking loose. “Throw the traitorous Bitch in the dungeon!” I look at Oliver barely walking out of the hospital pointing at Ireland. Jackson and Jason are trying their best to talk sense into him. The g
