Natacha_HHey guys. I'm sorry for disappearing on you, but I have been on vacation in Orlando, Florida. It's been an exciting week, with lots of good memories. However! I am back, and more than ready to continue the journey of Elijah and Isabela.

Isabella P.O.V. “What the hell do you mean she is arrested on such serious charges? Son, she could never.. She is your mother!” Desmond has been yelling at us for the past hour. He was waiting at the front door when we walked in, and he followed us to Elijah’s office. We haven’t been able to get a word in because every time it seems like he is taking a breath, he starts yelling again. He has been asking a million questions, but most of all he’s been rambling on why his mate could never do what she is accused of. As he finally sits down, Elijah leans forward with me on his lap. His eyes are in turmoil and I feel the chaos that is swirling in his chest. “Dad, we would never take such drastic messrs if we were not 100% sure of her being guilty. She worked with a dark witch, and had my mate mark removed along with all my memories of Isabella.” “But how come she is on your lap then?” “Because Selene kept me in a coma until she could restore my mate mark and my memories.” He sighs

Isabella P.O.V. Callum accepted to be our new Delta, and we were all very pleased with having him. He’s a sweetheart with a knack for leading under guidance. More than once in the following weeks, he had to take over at the pack, because both Elijah and I, Dale and Ashlee and Ashton and Milan were away at the same time. As I predicted we had a lot of visitors - other Alpha’s, witches, warlocks and other shifters. We even had a visit from a clan of converted demons. Some of them still had their powers, but they were using them to rid the world of evil. They were excellent assassins, which we welcomed with open arms. We also had to take care of some internal differences as older pack members were not as pleased with all the changes we were making. Elijah had to put his foot down and tell them they were welcomed to find another pack, but as we were the King and Queen, we were also working on laws pertaining packs to be acceptable for other species - not necessarily taking them in
Her Second Chance Alpha The new and the unforeseen (Part one)
Elijah P.O.V. I never thought my life would take this drastic of a turn, but ever since Isabella entered my life everything has been turned upside down. Not that I am complaining. Not even by an inch. She has turned everything to the better. Before I was living, but I wasn’t really alive. She has given meaning to life. She has filled my heart and soul with love, and turned me into an even better version of myself. I love her with all I am, and that is why it is so damn hard to be away from her. I don’t like this part, but I know it’s necessary if we want to show everyone we are a strong unit. We are the King and Queen, and therefore we have a responsibility for all our people. We heard about the various Alpha’s who swore to kill us, and we made it our mission to visit all of them and show them who we are. More than one decided against their original resolve when they got to know us. We opted to travel together to the packs where we felt the Alpha was following someone else. The
Her Second Chance Alpha The new and the unforeseen (Part Two)
Isabella P.O.V. My eyes darted between the people at the border. A girl is hiding behind Callum, while the guards are on the defense. She cowers, trying to keep herself out of sight. I wonder if she is the one who triggered the alarm, and if that is the case - why is Callum defending her so adamantly? “Nestor, answer me!” I order our Second in Command. He keeps sending the girl evil suspicious eyes. They move from her to me, and I think that is when he realizes both Elijah and I are here. He straightens his back. “Your Majesty, this.. Creature.. Triggered the alarm, but Delta Callum refuses to let us take her into custody.” Nestor replies calmly, his men growling at the woman. She hisses at him, and I cock my head to the side. What is she? She is definitely not a wolf shifter. I narrow my eyes at her, calling forth my powers. I have no idea if this will work, but I’ve noticed if I concentrate enough, I am able to see one’s inner self. Her figure shifts to a woman with ice blue ey
Her Second Chance Alpha Another perspective
Unknown P.O.V. Ever since I was little, my mom always told me how special I am. She used to spend hours just me and her, and I enjoyed the undivided attention for her. She never really liked father or my incompetent little brother. She always said it was me and her against the world. That someday I would be King of everything. Someday I would take my rightful place as the strongest of all supernaturals. Mother always knew about father’s lineage. That was why made that deal with the disgustion Alpha of Green Forest. She also knew father wasn’t her destined mate, but she made him her mate. She made sure to seduce him, and have him mark and mate her in a moment of weakness. Sure, she had to resolve to use a forbidden potion, so he thought he had done it willingly. When in reality; she had forced him. When the potion ran out, the damned witch refused to supply more, knowing what she had done. The witch warned mother. She said the Goddess always punished those who stray from their destin
Her Second Chance Alpha My Parents?
Alex P.O.V.It’s been a while now, and Michelle is getting better day for day. She’s still fragile, but the doctors dismissed her from the pack clinic yesterday. She and Cedric have moved to the Alpha floor. They have both started much needed therapy, and I see them take steps every day to get better, even though they always have bad days. Especially has days where she hides in their room, not even coming down to get food. Jenna has made a point to visit her everyday, making friends and keeping her company. I still do not know how to feel about her? She is my biological mother, as Cedric is my father, but they abandoned me and Isabella to our own fate as children, and the way especially my sister was treated was at their hands as well as Ferguson’s. If they had taken us with them. If they had thought about us as well, Isabella would have had it easier. I know I am also to blame, and I take full responsibility, but I was a child. “Knock, knock.” Someone says while tapping their knuck
Her Second Chance Alpha Thoughts and mingling
Isabella P.O.V. “ELIJAH!” I look into his office, but he is not there either. I have been looking for him for the last hour or so. I’ve just talked to Alex and I need to fill him in. My scream of desperation is met upon deaf ears. I sigh. Where the heck did everyone go? I wasn’t gone that long. The phone call took half an hour tops. I roll my eyes, walking back to our bedroom. I try to mind-link him again, but once again the link is blocked. I do not understand. I tried to look downstairs, at the training ground, our room, his office and everywhere else I could think of. I even tried to mind-link some of the others, but all mind-links are blocked and people are gone. I look around in our room. Elijah has been weird all day not that I think of it. He’s been really secretive and illusive ever since this morning. We cuddled in bed, which developed to three rounds of hot and steamy sex! But it didn’t get as wild as it usual
Her Second Chance Alpha The right moment (Part One)
Elijah P.O.V. The panic I felt coursing through me when I couldn’t find Isabella. I didn’t even think to open my mind-link and ask her where she was. It was just sheer panic and dread in my mind and body. I left her in her office where she was calling Alex. She felt weird all of a sudden, and I know it wasn’t from me. I closed off our mate-link as well - not that she felt it. I hope. Oh Goddess. What if she wandered off to punish me? What if she felt me close the link and thought. No, no. I can’t think like that. Maybe she wandered off because she couldn’t find me? Maybe she was looking for me? “Elijah?” “Huh? What?” “What were you thinking off just now?” “Nothing special, baby. Why?” I lie through my teeth. I need Isabella to be relaxed and happy. With what I have in mind for today, she needs to not worry about me or anything else. She is the most special person in my life, and even though we haven’t been together that long, I know she is my it! That’s how it is with one's

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
