Her Rejection, His Regret 37
Isla’s POV “Olga, please take care of Carrie,” I said as she took Carrie from me. There was no way I was going to miss seeing that old hag get what she finally deserved. Olga soothed Carrie as she begun to cry and I felt a stab of guilt hit me as I watched Olga walk away with Carrie. But this was not a place for Carrie to be right now and I wanted to have my say at this trial. “Isla, what are you doing?” Aaron called me through the mind link, but I refused to be turned away. I knew that he would sense me straight away. “Do not stand in my way,” I told my alpha mate, and he sighed, realising that arguing was pointless. “Isla, my dear child.” my mother rushed to me with open arms, and I hugged her back. Today was going to be interesting, that was for sure. As we quickly took our seats, Mrs. Jenkins was escorted into the room. She looked different now, her haughty demeanour replaced with a weariness that spoke to the weight of her crimes. But I knew bett

107 Where Is Carrie? I couldn't help but beam at the alpha of my pack. I felt fortunate to have him as mine. His support and love filled me with overwhelming gratitude. Wrapping my arms around him in a tight embrace, I cherished the safety and warmth of his presence. "I love you so much," he whispered, his words melting my heart. The depth of my affection for him surpassed words - a love that he may never fully comprehend. His hand protectively cradled my growing bump, reminding me of the precious life we had conceived together. "Inside you are our future, our little bundle of joy," Aaron exclaimed, his excitement contagious. His joyous anticipation brought forth a musical laughter from my lips. Aaron's eyes sparkled with tenderness as he held me closer, his voice filled with pure adoration. "And you, my love, will be the most incredible mother. I can already picture our little one taking after your kind heart and radiant spirit." My heart yearned to check on Carrie, my

Who took Carrie? Isla’s POV I remained in the nursery, my mind racing with fear, anger, and hope. Sasha held me close, her presence a soothing balm for my troubled soul. "We'll find her, Isla. We won't rest until she's back safe with us," she whispered, her voice filled with determination. The room felt suffocating, the air thick with worry and despair. We had been waiting in the nursery for what felt like an eternity, anxiously anticipating any news about the disappearance of our precious daughter, Carrie. The clock on the wall seemed to taunt me constantly, echoing my heart's racing. My mind was clouded with fear and uncertainty, and each passing second gnawed away at my resolve. Where was Carrie? What had happened to her? The questions swirled through my head, tormenting me without mercy. Sasha sat beside me on the nursery rocking chair, offering me solace in this moment of darkness. Her warm and understanding eyes held a mixture of concern and trying to remain positiv

Aaron’s POV “Alpha Aaron," Esmeralda's voice trembled, her eyes filled with fear as I returned to the main grounds after reassuring my Luna, my mate, that everything would be okay. But Esmeralda’s words cut through my resolve, shattering my hope into a million scattered shards. "I think we have a problem." My heart clenched as my mind raced, anticipating the worst. Dread settled heavily in the pit of my stomach, causing my breath to catch in my throat. "What is it?" I managed to utter, my voice tight with anxiety—every fibre of my being prayed that her response wouldn't confirm my darkest fears. "It's a body," Esmeralda whispered, her voice filled with sorrow and hesitation. "By the lakes." The weight of her words seemed to suffocate the air around us. My legs threatened to buckle beneath me as my thoughts immediately turned to Carrie, our beloved child who had been ripped away from us. Images of her face, her smile, flooded my mind, conflicting with the chil

Isla’s POV I stared into Aaron's eyes, a mix of uncertainty and determination clouding his expression. My mind raced with thoughts, my instincts urging me to delve deeper into this mystery. "Aaron, something doesn't feel right. There's a nagging feeling within me, urging us to look further into this situation," I voiced my concerns aloud. I stroked Carrie’s hand as her eyes remained closed and wished that she would wake up already. I wanted to hug her close to my chest. I had missed her. Aaron glanced at me, unsure how to respond, before finally giving a solemn nod. "Isla... I trust your instincts. If you feel we need to pursue this, then we will. But we must proceed with caution." Before I could respond, our conversation was abruptly interrupted by the sudden appearance of my mother, accompanied by an unfamiliar figure. A sense of unease settled within me as I noticed the gravity etched on their faces. “Isla, may we have a word?" my mother's voice held a severe tone, ca

Isla’s POV “What?” I blinked several times, wondering if I had heard my friend correctly. “Yes. Luna, Alpha. She claims to have important information.” Sasha explained. “She seems genuine, and we should see what she has to say.” I turned to Aaron, who gave a slight nod of agreement. “Yes. Let's check this out,” he said. “I am coming.” I insisted before he could order me to stay here. “Sasha, wait here.” As we reached the border, I saw a figure standing just beyond the line. It was a woman, her posture rigid and confident. I could sense the power emanating from her, and it only fueled my curiosity. “Hello there,” Aaron called out. I could sense his uncertainty. Approaching cautiously, I spoke, "Who are you, and how do you know about Carrie? What is it you want from us?” The woman gave me a small smile before replying, "Luna Isla. Alpha Aaron. Good to see you both. My name is Celeste, and I have been closely monitoring your situation. You see, I have connectio

Isla’s POV "We received word that Carrie is awake," I reminded Aaron as we returned to the main packhouse, Celeste walking beside us. Just as we approached, Beta Nigel appeared, his surprise evident upon seeing Celeste. "Luna Isla," Nigel greeted me, his curiosity piqued. "Jameson is with Carrie, along with your mother. But who is this?" he asked, gesturing towards Celeste. She calmly extended her hand towards Nigel, who hesitantly shook it."Hello," Celeste introduced herself with a friendly smile. "Sasha was the one who first greeted me at the gates of your magnificent home. “Speaking of Sasha, where is she?" I inquired, concerned that she seemed to have vanished after alerting us about the visitor. Nigel could only shrug, just as unaware of Sasha's whereabouts."I have no idea. But let's go see Carrie," Nigel suggested, his eagerness matching ours. I agreed, my thoughts consumed by thoughts of Carrie's well-being. I glanced at Aaron, and we exchanged a nod before setting off

Isla's Perspective The haze of fear dissolved as Aaron's comforting voice broke through. Worry was evident in his eyes as he took my hand, offering support. "It's happening, Aaron," I managed to choke out, my voice barely above a whisper. Everything blurred around me as the contractions intensified, every fibre of my being radiating with pain. “Let me help assist with this birth. I have been learning to do midwifery quite recently.” I heard Celeste say, and I nodded in agreement. My mother's concerned voice urged us to find a safe place. Jameson stepped forward, offering his arm for support, while Celeste followed closely behind. “The birthing room is being prepared,” Aaron announced. He must have ordered some of our omegas to do so via mind link. He was thinking ahead despite everything else happening, and I loved him for that. But suddenly, a panic swept over me. "What about Sasha and everything else?" I began to fret. "No. Luna Isla, do not worry.

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

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

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

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
