Ireland’s POV

My 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

I have to admit hearing that I was not replaced with that crazy Isabelle and hearing him call me his Luna almost had me jumping onto him and accepting him. I can’t however I am afraid this all due to guilt and not love. I have so many insecurities when it comes to him. I have put my guard down before and all I did was get hurt. I look down and look at my chest, the faint scratches a reminder of just how bad this man can hurt me. I let out a deep breath and throw on a loose V-neck t-shirt before looking at the clock and seeing that I have just 5 minutes to be out for training and take off running out of my room to the training field throwing my hair in a messy bun.

I have spent hours in therapy to help me feel comfortable with becoming intimate again and comfortable with myself. However when I am around Oliver I feel like the counseling was unnecessary as I don’t think of all the things they did to me. I just think about him erasing all of it with his touch maybe it is a mate thing. I feel like I am constantly fighting myself to stop myself from throwing myself at him, I wish I could trust my feelings and or trust Oliver for that matter.I hear him enter the bathroom and the shower start pouring so I quickly begin to get dressed.

    Chapter Forty Seven-Jackson POVI hated to leave the fight but Alpha needs to know what is going on. I did manage to kill two rogues before I left. I am so afraid for my friends, for my mate. I know Jason is an amazing fighter but I still worry. As I run I can feel every blow that my mate feels I share in his pain as well as I feel every moment of triumph he feels against his opponent; it is the magic of the mate bond. It also allows me to know that he is alive and fighting, he is fighting for our pack, for our friends and for our family and for me. I shift when I near the pack house and grab a pair of basketball shorts that are kept in a basket by the door. I run as fast as I can screaming for the Alpha, the house is dead silent no doubt the pack had already been alerted through mindlink by Zander or Lilly. I curse my Alpha i

It doesn’t make sense though?” Chris steps forward. “What doesn’t make sense?” “I know that I don’t have Belle because of my mate rejecting me. I didn’t accept and he continued to hurt me.

    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

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.

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

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 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
