Her Rejection, His Regret 31
Ed raised his eyebrows as he came closer to me and stopped by the bed's side. "Isla, I am sorry how things have turned out for us, but I honestly am trying to process all of this, as are you. Your mother is also sorry." he sighed and twitched his nose. "If I knew that you were my daughter, things would have been so much more different!" he told me with a hint of sadness in his eyes. I looked away, not wanting to think about how crazy this all was. But as for my mother, well, so-called mother. Where was she right now? Why was she not the one explaining all of this to me? "OK, so where is she now? Why is she not here explaining herself to me?" I demanded to know, slightly surprised by my confidence. "I told her that I would speak to you first. Since I am sure that you have plenty of questions. I have watched you grow for five years and always believed in you. That Miller did you all wrong and Max is determined to go to war on Pembroke." War! They were going

I felt much better when the pack doctor discharged me from the pack hospital. I did not particularly like being in those places, and luckily, I healed quickly as a strong warrior. As much as I loved being in this pack, I wanted to be with my mate and if that meant moving with him for a fresh start, then so be it. I just needed to clear some things up first. Max and I had gone upstairs to the bedroom, where he ran me a lovely, hot, warm bubble bath. Max had said he needed to return and tend to some important business. I didn’t even bother asking what sort of business he meant. My mother and Ed wanted to see me anyway, which was fine because they had some explaining to do anyway. I had a lot of unanswered questions running through my head. I felt like my head was going to explode, it was so hard to process. As I walked out of the bedroom that Max had left me in, I walked down the stairwell and greeted a few pack members who were walking past me. Then I sa

“Mora is being sent back to Pembroke until further notice.” “What? Why?” I could not believe my ears. Of course, it was what I had wanted, but it was not what I had expected to hear. “It was either Mora or you, and since you are my daughter, you should be with me here,” Ed said without even looking my way. “Isla, I am so sorry for all of this. I had to get out of Pembroke.” My mother said. “And what if Mora tells everyone that you are alive? Do you not think they will come here looking for you?” My voice trembled as tears started to fall from my eyes. I did not even bother to wipe them. “She has been sworn to secrecy. She is packing her things, and my beta will escort her back to Pembroke. Alpha Miller has already been informed.” A knock at the door caused Ed to curse under his breath. “Excuse me, I was asked to hand you this.” A feeble voice came as Ed answered the door and took whatever was handed to him. He nodded dismissively to the om

"Check the security." Ed suddenly came out of shock and screamed down the phone to whoever answered on the other end. My mother looked on as if trying to make sense of it all. "No. Daniel wo uld never have done such a thing." she shook her head in denial and glared at Ed. I rolled my eyes because she did not know Daniel like she thought she did. "You believe that, do you?" I scoffed, crossing my arms over my chest. "Oh, Isla. Stop being a brat. Daniel would not do something like that unless he were provoked. Perhaps if you and Mora had got along much better then things would have been different." she threw at me and glowrred like i were a massive inconvenience to her life. "He always was your favourite." I growled through clenched teeth. "Well, he is my child, after all." she retorted. Wow. At least I now knew what she did think of me. I was nothing to her. She did not care about me, and clearly, she never had. "That is uncalled for. You can n

It felt like an eternity before I could describe what was happening in my head. Seeing Cora had thrown me off balance. "Isla, we don't have to leave just yet. It is OK, and you can go and see your sister." Max insisted, and I gave him a small smile to show appreciation. He was so caring and patient with me. "How could you?" She yelled, pushing right through and eyes blazing. I opened my mouth and frowned in confusion, but then it dawned on me that she was referring to our mother. That made my mind up for me, and there was no way that I could leave her here to face all of that backlash. "No." I jumped out of the car and managed to grab her hand and pull her back. "Come with us, and we will talk things over." I insisted and did not give her any choice. "Fine," Cora grunted and then huffily got into the back of Max's car. "Girls. Wait. Come back, please." I rolled my eyes and shook my head. I have no words for her anymore. I had to get Cora

The hospital was waiting for us when we finally arrived there. I was surprised but thrilled when he finally allowed me to pull Max and Cora from the wreckage. It was a shock that it had not blown up yet. The smell of petrol was so overwhelmingly powerful that I thought I might pass out on the floor, but my wolf had pushed me to keep on going. I thanked my lucky stars for all the training and strength I gained at Eclipse. I wanted nothing more than to get away from this disgusting waste of wolf oxygen, but he was the only way I could get these two to safety quickly. “If anyone asks, I was passing and helped at the right time.” He made sure to keep reminding me of his little story. I didn’t care about what he was saying. I was just more worried about my mate and sister being ok. If anything happened to either of them, I would kill him myself. “She’s going to make a full recovery.” The nurse said, and I breathed a huge sigh of relief. My eyes darted acros

Miller’s POV I watched Isla leave the room and wished so badly that she was mine. I could not get her out of my head and wished that things were different, but they were not different at all, and I knew I had to live with it now. She belonged to Max now, and I needed them both on board if I wanted my pack to be saved. I wasn't the best alpha, but that was going to change. Mora had broken me by taking away my firstborn and running off with that so-called mate of hers. Cora held my hand and squeezed it firmly as if reading my mind and reassuring me. My beta returned to the room and looked slightly relieved to see me with Cora. She smiled at me as I stood up to talk to my beta. “He's still out for the count,” he said with a nod, and I noticed the smile wipe off Cora’s face. It was clear to me that it pained her to know that the arse of an animal was her flesh and blood. He was a monster. “He cannot know about my mother,” she said wit

Isla’s POV I walked Into the room to see Max sitting up in the bed, not a mark on him. He had healed so quickly, and I was so happy about that. “Hello, my beautiful girl.” he beamed as I threw my arms around him and squealed with happiness. He picked me up and spun me around. He was so handsome and strong, and I was so lucky to have him as mine. “Cora and Miller are here. That so-called father of mine is out there as well.” I scrunched my face and wished he would have left us all alone. Max laughed and ruffled my hair. “I already know about that. I also hear that Miller wants our help. How do you feel about that?” he raised an eyebrow and cocked his head to the side, waiting for my answer. I shrugged, not sure how I felt. He was my ex-mate, and I hated him for how he had treated me in the past, but was it time to put that aside and move on with life? “Go on, it's fine. I have to speak to the doctor quickly anyway. I will meet you all outsid

Her Rejection, His Regret 29
Luke pov The black wolf snarled, his eyes narrowing with fury as he calculated his next move. We were no longer just a pack of wolves; we were a force of nature, an unquenchable flame ignited by our collective resilience and unity. With every heartbeat, the anticipation surged through us, amplifying each flicker of power as we stood against him, determined to banish the darkness that had haunted the edges of our lives. “Enough!” he roared, charging at me, the darkness pooling around him in a furious torrent. I could feel the malevolence radiating off him like heat from a fire, trying to instil fear within our hearts. Yet, as he bore down on me, I could see the uncertainty behind that ferocity. He was no longer the predator; he was desperate. “Together!” I shouted again, urging my pack to rally. Carrie and Ryder poured their strength into the barrier of light that Rachel had conjured, reinforcing it as we prepared for his assault. As the black wolf lunged toward me, time seeme
Her Rejection, His Regret Twenty eight
Luke pov As the shadows slowly began to release their grip on me, an instinctive anger ignited within, burning hotter than the darkest depths of the void that had threatened to swallow me whole. All around, I could sense my pack gathering strength—Carrie’s fierce determination, Ryder’s unyielding loyalty, and Rachel's frightened yet resolute presence in the corner of my mind. Our shared bond pulsed like a heartbeat, commanding me to fight back.“You think you can break free?” the black wolf taunted, his voice echoing through the night like thunder. “This realm belongs to the darkness now!”Ignoring his bravado, I focused on the shared energy radiating from my packmates. Each heartbeat was a reminder of what we stood to lose. We were more than just a collection of wolves—we were a family woven together by our struggles, victories, and unbreakable bonds. “Together!” I shouted, pulling every ounce of strength from my soul and feeling the power surge to the surface. “We won’t give in!”
Her Rejection, His Regret Twenty seven
As we pulled away from the embrace, I felt the weight of our previous argument still hanging in the air. I could see that a cautious acceptance was slowly replacing my mother's worry, but I couldn't shake the feeling that something more sinister was lurking beyond our immediate concerns.We gathered the rest of the pack for an emergency meeting, each member looking apprehensive. The day's events had spread like wildfire, and now everyone was on edge. I stood before them, clearing my throat to capture their attention.“I know today was a close call,” I began, my voice steady despite the adrenaline rush still coursing through me. “But we are stronger than we realise. The rogues won’t just back off easily. They will come again, and when they do, we need to be prepared.”Ryder stepped forward, his eyes flashing with intensity. “I suggest we step up patrols immediately. We’ve already started gathering everyone for a watch rotation. We can’t let them have the upper hand.” The pack murmured
Her Rejection, His Regret Twenty Six
Luke’s POV As we stood there, the rogues slowly backing away, Carrie's voice echoed through the cave. I could sense her power building, knowing she was getting angry. Her eyes were blazing with fierce determination, and I could see the wolves within her starting to stir."You're not taking anyone else from my pack," she growled, her voice low and menacing.Ryder, still in his wolf form, let out a snarl, and I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. The two remaining rogues took another step back, their eyes darting between us.I took a step forward, my power growing in response to Carrie's. "You're not going to hurt anyone else," I said, my voice firm.The rogues hesitated for a moment, then turned and ran. We let them go, knowing that they wouldn't be able to escape for long. We had won this battle, but we knew that there would be more to come.I glanced over at Ryder, who was still in his wolf form. He was panting heavily, his eyes still burning with anger. I coul
Her Rejection, His Regret Twenty five
Luke’s pov We returned to the pack, exhausted but determined. Our parents were already there, discussing the situation with the other pack members. "I think we should split our pack into smaller groups and patrol the surrounding areas," my father suggested. "We need to catch these rogues off guard and take them down before they can do any more harm." I nodded in agreement. "I think that's a good idea, father. But we also need to come up with a plan to protect Carrie. She's the key to this whole thing." Carrie looked up at me, her eyes still flashing with anger. "I don't need protection," she growled. "I can take care of myself." But I knew that wasn't true. The rogues were too strong, too cunning. She needed our help to stay safe. Even if she was powerful and able to beat anyone down. We still needed to protect her as she got used to her powers and understood them better. Ryder suddenly stepped forward. "I'll stay with her," he said. "We'll keep her safe, no matter wha
Her Rejection, His Regret Twenty four
Luke’s POV “Rachel, go fetch my parents,” I yelled as she ran to alert my pack. Carrie and Ryder remained with me. I wouldn't let anything happen to her, and as the future alpha, I had to stand my ground. “What do you want from this pack? Why don't you leave and never return? You're not welcome here.” I growled as the prominent rogue leader finally stood before us. He eyed me curiously before a cunning smirk formed on his face. “You came to the city. Your sister came after you. She was nice enough to leave her portal open so we could return here. What we want is behind you.” he answered gruffly. I glanced to my side and realised that he was referring to Carrie. He wanted Carrie. All this was about my sister. “We have been searching for her for many years now. You see, she isn't like any of you. She isn't one of you.” he explained, and I felt my sister tremble with confusion behind me. “You're not taking her anywhere. She's my mate.” Ryder snarled, and I held him
Her Rejection, His Regret Twenty Three
Luke pov Luke pov I stood frozen, my eyes fixed on the retreating figures of Carrie and her new mate. My mind was racing with questions and concerns. Who was this guy? What pack was he from? What was his story? And what did he have to do with my sister?My mother's words echoed in my mind - "stop her". But I knew it was too late. Carrie was determined to follow her heart, regardless of anyone else's thoughts. And as much as I wanted to protect her, I knew that trying to stop her would only push her further away.I turned back to my parents, who stared at me with worry and despair. My father's expression was etched with concern, while my mother's face was wet with tears."Luke, please," she said, her voice shaking. "You have to talk to her. Make her see reason."I shook my head, feeling a pang of guilt. I wanted to believe there was still a way to turn back the clock, to make Carrie see that this guy wasn't good enough for her. But deep down, I knew it was too late."She's made up he
Her Rejection, His Regret Twenty Two
Carrie’s POV I could feel the weight of my parents' disapproval bearing down on me as we walked away from them. I knew they would never understand me, never accept Ryder as my mate. But I didn't care. I was done being controlled, done being told what to do and who to be with. Ryder squeezed my hand, his grip tight and reassuring. "We'll figure it out," he said, his voice low and steady. "We'll find a way to stop the rogue wolves and ensure you're safe." I nodded, feeling a sense of determination wash over me. We would do it, no matter what my parents said or did. We would find a way to make this work. As we walked, the trees seemed to grow taller and darker around us, casting long shadows across the forest floor. I could feel the moon rising above us, its light casting an otherworldly glow over everything. "Where are we going?" Ryder asked, his eyes scanning the surroundings. "I don't know," I admitted. "I just know I can't go back there. Not now." Ryd
Her Rejection, His Regret Twenty one
Carrie’s POV “Please give me a moment with my daughter.” my mother said, dragging me away from Ryder and prying eyes.“You cannot accept him as your mate, Carrie.” she insisted, and I felt my blood boil through my veins. Was she being serious? The moon goddess had paired me with Ryder for a reason! How could she expect me to ignore that? I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down, but my mind was racing with thoughts of Ryder and the danger he was in. I knew my parents were trying to protect me, but I couldn't shake the feeling that they didn't understand.“Carrie, your mother is correct. We don't know him at all. He could be anyone.” my father agreed with my mother. Not that I could expect anything different since they never disagreed over anything. "MOTHER, FATHER! Please," I said, trying to reason with them. "Ryder is trying to help us. He's willing to put his life on the line to protect us. He knows what he is talking about. Why won't you give him a chance? Can you not
