Her Second Chance Alpha The right moment (Part Two)
Isabella P.O.V. “I’m pregnant.” I say, looking at my mate who’s eyes are closed. I know I hurt him when I didn’t answer his question and everything in me is still screaming to say yes, but I need him to know this secret before I do. He deserves to know that we have a baby on the way, and I need to know if he is angry with me. I didn’t mean to get pregnant, and seriously not at this time, but I want to keep the baby. Our baby. However, if Elijah is not okay with this, I will give him the opportunity to say so and I’ll leave our pack and him behind. This little pup is already my first priority, and I will move heaven and earth to protect him or her. The minutes drag by, and Elijah keeps having his eyes closed. His breath is calm, but I can feel the turmoil inside him. “Elijah?” I ask, the tension and suspense is killing me as I am sure it was killing him earlier. This was supposed to be the perfect moment and I ruined it. I should have told
Her Second Chance Alpha Night attack
Isabella P.O.V. The next few days we have different visitors. Different pack leaders and ranked members of other species. We talk and make contracts of peace and allegiance between us. We also announce to the pack that Elijah and I are engaged, and plan to have a small pack dinner on the night where Alex, Jenna, Michelle and Cedric arrive. It’s only a couple of days away now, and I am looking forward to telling them what has happened here. It’s so far all good news, but things have a way to change from one moment to another, and we couldn’t expect peace to keep ruling with the threat growing ever closer. On the night before my brother and parents were arriving, we were awoken in the dead of night by the alarms and then guards yelling over mind-link. ‘WE’RE UNDER ATTACK! SOUTHERN BORDER.’ ‘EASTERN BORDER IS BEING RUN OVER AS WELL! ARGH!’ ‘ROGUES WITH MAGIC. DEMONS AND.. OH MY GODDESS.. HELP US!’ Elijah and I jump out of bed. “You go to the safe room, baby. Stay out of sig
Her Second Chance Alpha Aftermath (Part one)
Alex P.O.V. We’re on our way to Isabella’s pack, when my phone goes off. The number is unfamiliar, and even though I don’t usually pick up calls that are blocked, something tells me to pick this up. “Hello?” “Alpha Alex? This is Beta Dale, I have tried to get a hold of you for the past four hours.” “I’m sorry, Beta. We’ve been in the air and my phone was on airplane mode. What is going on? Why are you calling me?” My stomach churns. Has something happened since I last talked to Isabella? It was yesterday afternoon, and she told me she had some happy news to share. I could hear Elijah laugh in the background, and everything seemed fine. “Where are you now?” “We just touched down, and are on our way to the strip where we have cars waiting. Why?” “We were attacked last night, Alpha. Luna Isabella needs you. Elijah..” He chokes up and I imagine the worst outcome possible. “Our Alpha is going between life and death at the moment. Luna is distraught, and refuses to leave his si
Her Second Chance Alpha Consequences
Isabella P.O.V. I don’t know what happened? I was in a separate hospital room, ordered by the doctor to lay down and rest, while they monitor Elijah’s condition and the next thing I know his heart is failing. Emerald has been battling something inside us, keeping it in check but wouldn’t tell what it is. She keeps saying we need to do something drastic and soon if we want to stay us. Whatever that means. I hear the flatlining of my mate, and I jump out of bed, running to his room. I remember the feeling of utter heartbreak, how he is slipping away and then I faint. I don’t remember hitting the ground, but I know my powers overpowered me and I did something. I hear Alex yell my name, but I am not hearing him from inside my body. I’m somehow levitating over the scene, and I watch as Elijah spirit looks at me with wide scared eyes, before he returns to his body and his heart beats once again. Then I know I’m dead. I used my lifeforce to prevent him from dying on me, and I died instea
Her Second Chance Alpha Aftermath (Part two)
Isabella P.O.V. “You two need to stop that bickering for a moment and remember your matebond and why you are in the same hospital room, with people who call for me when they can’t talk sense into you. Think back. Before all this. Before the attack.” Selene implores, but I am in no mood to as she says. Elijah is seemingly on my page in this, because he also crosses his arms. I smirk. Well, I guess there’s actually one thing we can agree on. Selene narrows her eyes. “Well, then I guess I have no choice.” And with that I feel the world go black, and the last thing I hear is Alex and Dale cursing out the Goddess and I’m out. Everything is once again black. This is really getting old. I know what I have to do, but I am not sure if I want to do it this time. Why should I? He is the one who ruined this. Why should I be the good little mate, who solves everything.Someone growls behind me and I swirl around just in time to see Emerald jump me. Somewhere in the distance I hear a
Her Second Chance Alpha Tricking the trickster (Part one)
Elijah P.O.V. We’ve used the last few days to catch everyone up on what happened at the end of the attack, the blood curse and what happened with Selene. Dad came home to the pack when Lauren called him about me and Isabella. He had an update on mom, and it was not entirely good news. Although she has settled well in the ward, and found herself at home with the daily schedule and dad living there with, she’s still cursing Isabella for taking away her family. She only does it out loud when she thinks no one hears her, but what she doesn't know is that dad and Dale had surveillance installed in all her rooms, except the bathroom - but there are mics in there. They are recording everything she says and everyone she talks to on the phone or in person. She has had visitors when dad is not around, and thinks no one knows she is still plotting her schemes. He is contemplating leaving her, although that would hurt him deeply. Isabella has taken it with grace. She knows she is not at fault f
Her Second Chance Alpha Tricking the trickster (Part two)
Isabella P.O.V. I’m carefully watching the interrogation unfold on the other side of the glass, and I have to give it to Elijah, he is an excellent actor. So much so he has to send me recurrence through the bond. Ashlee and Milan are both almost vibrating with anger, and their eyes keep clouding over. “Would the two of y’all stop with the mind-linking and say whatever it is you want to say?” I ask over my shoulder. My eyes are trained on the conversation in the other room, and the direction it’s following at the moment. “We’re just discussing if we should call my mother or not.” Ashlee says, and I turn my head for a brief moment. “Why?” “She committed a crime against a friend of our pack, a personal friend of ours. We need justice.” “Your elder council banished her from your Coven, Ash. They did what they thought was right and in that sense justice will have been served in the eyes of your Coven, and your mother cannot do anything further. But!” I say when she opens her mouth
Her Second Chance Alpha Moving forward
Isabella P.O.V. She was speaking the truth. That much I was sure about, having used my powers on her. But I had no idea how true she really was speaking. Over the last five days, we have had nightly shadow attacks - although they have not been as successful as the enemy would want them. We were ready for them the first night, and some of them walked right into the traps our pack members had set up. Elijah cursed the fact he forgot to ask her where Conan had his base of operations, but it seemed he didn’t have to. Dad told us that night at dinner, that his old pack had gotten a new Alpha. Something he had not gotten the chance to tell us yet. He and Alex relayed how they were in contract with different pack members, and how they wanted out, but they couldn’t risk it. I looked at Elijah that night, both of us thinking the same. “Well, how about we help them out?” I said, and my brother actually looked at me like I’ve grown two heads. “Help them out? They have crazy dark magic practi

Her Second Chance Alpha Epilogue 2 - Growing up
Isaiah P.O..V 18 years later “Happy birthday to yooooou!” I smile at the people gathered around the table. They are my people. My family and friends. But also only that. I have not yet met my mate, and this being my 22nd birthday, it’s feeling like it’ll never happen. Mom and dad have been very supportive of me, and they always tell me they will accept whatever decision I make regarding the mate situation. “Make a wish, Isaiah.” Mom urges, and I close my eyes and wish with all my heart I’ll meet my mate soon. I do not care who she is, what she is or where she is from, I just want to find her and love her. I know I sound soft and whatnot, but I so desperately want what my parents, aunts and uncles and most cousins and siblings have. True love to share my world with. But she is making me wait, and I know in my heart she’ll be worth the wait. “What did you wish for, brother?” Elise asks, her eyes twinkling in mischief. She asks every year in the hopes I’ll show and tell, but I will n
Her Second Chance Alpha Epilogue 1 - family expansion
Isabella P.O.V. Four years later Sitting in my office, I can’t help but reminisce over the last four years. So much has happened even though there has been peace. We have lived in harmony with other species for just as long, and our bond with each other has grown stronger. Isaiah is now four, and a whirlwind of energy. He is a big brother to Gabriel and Elise. They are three and one. I told Elijah I don’t want any more children, to which he replied I had to tell the Moon Goddess. If she decides to bless us a fourth time, I will be going to her world and smack her! Grandmother or not, I don’t want any more children, and so far she has listened. It also helps that we are using protection.We have been rallying the packs to meet annually, as to prevent the events of Conan from happening once again. It has been successful enough, but we still have yet to get the border packs - those who have lands leading up to dragon territory, fae territory and demon territory, to come as well. The l
Her Second Chance Alpha New life
Elijah P.O.V. Two months later “ELIJAH!” I rush into the hospital room where Isa is still admitted. The doctors were not comfortable with sending her home, as she kept getting contractions whenever she over exerted herself, and she did that a lot. Even laying in the hospital bed. But here they, and I, could tell her to relax and not stress the body so much. Not that she listened very well.“Baby, what is it?” She’s out of bed, and her leggings are drenched. “My water just broke. I think.” She answers, her eyes wide and scared. We are almost to term, but not quite there yet either. Doctors said he would be early because of the trauma, but this early? This feels too early. “Don’t just stand there. Get a doctor or nurse or something!” She demands, while waddling to the toilet. Her voice and movement snaps me back to reality. “Where the fuck are you going?” I ask, quickly grabbing her arm and helping her to her destination. “My pants are soaked, and I have to pee really bad.” She an
Her Second Chance Alpha Story time in the hospital
Isabella P.O.V. “Why do you always end up in the hospital, Isa?” Lauren asks, as she bends down and gives me a hug. I stick my tongue out at her, and gesture for Elijah to help me sit up. He gives me a look, but I just plead with my own eyes. He sighs and stands. I love how he can resist me, even when I did something he did not at all approve of. I love this man to death! “Why are you always so snarky?” I ask back, as she chuckles, and sits down. Her mate stands behind her, placing his hands on her shoulders. Elijah growls at the contact, and I swat him across the chest as he is helping me sit up. He just raised an eyebrow. “Shut up, and help me dammit.” I whine, and he shakes his head in exasperation. “What do you think I am doing, woman?” He asks back, and I just purse my lips in a ‘do you really want me to answer that?’ sort of way. He sighs. “Don’t answer that.” He caves and I smile. When I’m in a much better talking position, I turn my head to the couple on my left. They hav
Her Second Chance Alpha The Challenge (Part two)
Isabella P.O.V.We wait for another minute before Conan walks into the middle of the ground. I think he wanted Kimmie and her disturbed friends to examine nothing was amiss, but they wouldn’t know. We used magic long forgotten, on the request of Ashlee to her mother. She wanted this particular surprise to be something they never saw coming. We know Elijah and Fenris will beat Conan and his wolf in a fair one-on-one fight, but we also know he would never go into such a fight without a backup - hence Kimmie and her bag of twisted tricks. The grounds light up in a golden color when both wolves are in the middle facing each other. Kimmie screeches, holding her hands over her eyes. Her friends do the same, hissing and cursing. “What the fuck was that?” She screams, her eyes clouding over for a split second and the clearing because she can’t get ahold of Conan. Her eyes search for the golden color, seeing it goes around the whole perimeter of the ground where Conan’s wolf and Fenris are
Her Second Chance Alpha The Challenge (Part one)
Elijah P.O.V.I try and try again to tell Isabella to get her and the baby to safety, but she is adamant to come with me, and honestly? I cannot blame her with everything that happened the last time we were attacked. I still wonder how this can happen with the magical barrier Ashlee and Milan set up, but then I remember we talked about this the last time, and Ashlee said the enemy’s own magic user could take it down if they are strong enough, or have strength in numbers. I guess that is what happened here. We’ll have to take a look after, and see where we can do better defense wise. Isabella is riding on Fenris’s back, using her powers and her connection with the pack lands to take down enemy wolves everywhere. If I thought she was scary before, it is nothing compared to now. After she has been bound to the pack and land through marriage with me and the Luna position through my mother, she has a way better understanding of the layout and where to strike. She keeps communicating with
Her Second Chance Alpha From happiness to chaos
Isabella P.O.V. I can’t believe Thalia would show up, but on the other hand I also understand why she is here. She wants to see her son get married, but I have this weird feeling about her intentions. I wonder if she is really reformed or if she is playing the act really well. I guess we’ll see later. There is nothing I can or will do now, but I know everyone is on edge and keeping an eye out for her. I also am aware Elijah expects Conan to attack up before the day is over. This gathering of all his enemies in one place would be too much for him to not do anything. But I am just wondering if he really thinks it would be smart to attack today? Maybe he’ll wait until the morning after? I mind-link Caspar and Nestor about my thoughts, and they promise me they have everything under control. They have thought every scenario through. “Darling, are you ready?” Dad asks me, and I turn around to see something shine in his eyes. I smile. “Are you crying?” I ask back without answering his qu
Her Second Chance Alpha Wedding surprise
Elijah P.O.V. The day has gone by in a blur of events. The most scary one by far being Isabella and the others being followed by Conan’s cronies. Luckily they all arrived safely on the pack lands, but I upped the security around the border, just in case. Around 5.30pm the guests are starting to arrive, and I make sure to be the polite host who greets them outside the packhouse, and Omegas show them to the backyard. All of the packs, Covens and vampire families we contacted said yes to come, and I couldn’t be more proud of the work we have put in to mend the bonds between our species. We might be different, but we are also very alike. Everyone wants to celebrate true love. I made sure to implore them all to ensure their families safety while they are gone, as we all agree this event will be too much of a temptation for Conan to not attack us. We are actually expecting him to. I have not discussed this with Isabella. I do not want to worry her, but I have this feeling we’re going to
Her Second Chance Alpha Wedding preparations (Part Two)
Elijah P.O.V. I’m in my office with all the guys. They are not happy I asked their mates to accompany Isabella to town today. Especially when I told them to have some mate time with the girls, but when I tell them the reason they all agree this is important. They ask what they can do, and I delegate the tasks between them. Dale is in charge of getting food together - shopping, preparing and making. He is actually a genius in the kitchen, so I am confident he can get everyone to work together and make this happen. We talked about a small ceremony, but what Isabella doesn’t know is that I am planning to include all the pack, and guests from outside. We know Conan will attack soon, and what better way to gather our allies than to invite them to our wedding tonight. I just hope they can make it. I ask Cedric to be the happy messenger of invitations. He is still well respected and an Alpha. They will listen to him. I will call the Covens and vampire families myself. “Elijah, do you mi
