Her Second Chance Mate Chapter 125
AriezelThe sole sign of the days passing were the constant illumination of the lights and the times that the maids would come in as well as the type of food they brought. So far I had only counted up to two to three days since I arrived.The maids had a schedule, coming with a washcloth and bucket in the mornings followed by a change of clothes. No matter how much I cleaned up, I never wore the restrictive clothes, sticking to the same cream and green dress I had.(And ever so often, I would thumb across the dress, thinking of the excitement and anticipation of the event. One that was cut short.)Some bore vaguely familiar faces I had probably seen or talked to once upon a time, whilst others were total strangers.It didn't make a difference. They never spoke as they came, also bringing a tray of food and carrying it back. They didn't even look at me whenever it came untouched.The stubborn side I had gained won over. Aside from the baked goods such as the occasional bread, I didn't

AriezelStaring.I loathed staring.A part of me had begun to embrace it. I had to get used to it as the next Luna of course.But this moment simply reminded me of why I hated it so much.I stayed silent as the young women wrapped my body, slowly cleaning and bandaging the wounds and bruises I had suffered thanks to Derek. My gaze remained focused on the walls, unwilling to lock eyes with any of them.It was the third time they had come since the beating, and I wasn't letting up.The one time I had accidentally locked stares with one of them, I saw what I had expected.Pity.I looked away quickly, never sparing a glance after that. Yet I still felt their stares piercing me, filling me with an irritation so bone deep that it felt worse than the injuries I suffered.Just like the horrible stare of the pack doctor that I had suffered through for the past two years, but even worse. A part of me would have preferred the familiar indifferent stare of one person compared to many.Relief fill

AsherAsherIt was finally time.Once we had reformed into a semblance of a pack, I gathered all the troops I could, strategizing to invade the Blue moon pack and retrieve Ariezel. Throughout I had been on a constant move, never resting. The alcohol I had foolishly drank was far away beneath all the other trash as I threw myself wholeheartedly into my sole goal.Sleepless nights had been a constant for me over the past few days. Every time I got a lick of sleep the image of Ariezel beneath my eyelids always tormented me, the same dream occurring all over again, inevitable no matter how hard I tried. It felt even worse the moment I woke up screaming her name only to find her not there and remember her fate. It only drove me harder to find her.And now, the time had come to destroy this pack.I prepared properly, gaining a small semblance of rest in spite of the nightmare. This time I embraced it, knowing that by the next day Ariezel would be back in my arms.When I woke up, I instantly

128:AsherIt took time, but we were able to mobilize every single one of Derek's (or in this case, former) pack before we moved through the journey.Ariezel was quiet throughout, but I could easily understand why. Burying the strange feeling I understood that it was shock shock and exhaustion..Unfortunately, I couldn't stay with her for long. Right after I separated from her, I turned back to the hoard of people.I was her mate, but in this case I was an Alpha first. I had to organize everything.And so it went. I focused on organizing the pack, instructing them to prepare their things for the journey to their new pack. I spoke to every single soldier,A part of me had to hold back the urge to burn down every surface and structure of the pack. This place had served as a cage for her. In the end I had to look away, swallowing it all down.We began moving back to the pack albeit much slower considering the mass of people we were carrying back with us. Throughout the journey, I constan

AsherThe silence that came forth was so aggravating I couldn't bear it.“I asked you all a question!” I roared out.An uneasy movement came among them. I could feel the fear that flowed through every single one as they stood at my mercy.One person stepped forward it was a young man.“I was a guard in the place. I was there when she was brought in unconcious.”My hands curled into fists. The fact that they had taken her whilst she was unconscious and helpless filled me with rage.Serena, Derek and her father hadn't gotten the full consequences of their actions. Not yet.“After she was brought in, I don't know." He bowed in supplication.His denial filled me with so much annoyance that I could barely hold my back from lashing out.“Anyone else?” I barked out, anger rising at the persistent silence.“Since none of you wish to say a word, I guess you will share the same fate as your Alpha.”The moment I said those words an uproar started. Pleas and cries enveloped the hall.Sudden a ma

AriezelEvery night was the same thing.I could feel his breath over me, feel the striking pain from everything he did and his venomous words.Every single time I screamed, only to find that my voice echoed back at me. There was nobody there.At times it began differently, in a much crueler fashion. I would see the gentle visage of my mate. He would hold me, assuring me that everything was alright.And then like a switch had suddenly flipped, everything would change. It would be Derek that stared back at me, smiling cruelly and holding me down and-I woke up with wetness below me and Whenever I woke up I'd find myself back in the familiar walls of the pack, of safety.It didn't make me feel better. On the contrary, it made me cry even harder.I always stifled my sobs within my pillow, ensuring that I wasn't loud enough for anyone outside to hear a thing. .OST of all, I couldn't let Asher know of the nocturnal pains I suffered every night.Asher…The thought of him made me grip the gen

AsherAriezel wasn't okay.Two weeks passed in a blink. From sheltering the new pack members to the soldiers, the pack had finally relaxed to the degree that the future attack was already in plans.Yet whilst every other thing had calmed down, she remained the same as she came. Shifty and jumpy.Even the Pack members were concerned. At times I would overhear them talking about her sudden exits from a room, as though she was having a melt down. It was even more concerning.I loathed the spark of fear that showed on her face every time she came close.Most of all, I loathed how she always forced herself to act normal every single time.Her forced smiles and rigid frame set my teeth on edge every moment it occurred . I would have gone straight to the dungeons to demand an answer, but I didn't want to give Derek the satisfaction. Yet, I didn't stop telling and showing her how much I loved her.It wasn't until after I left the room that I realized that not only had she not answered the que

Ariezel“In other words, she's pregnant.”PregnantThat single word reverberated in my mind, shattering my senses.I had a baby. One that was growing in me.But that wasn't the main problem was it?It was the father of the baby, the one it belonged to.And considering the timing, there was only one possibility.Every part of me screamed in agony at the thought. My wolf howled inside me in tandem. The reminder of that traumatic experience left me cold and helpless.And to know that Derek had gained what he wanted left me with a crawling feeling which made me wish I could tear apart my skin.‘It could still be Asher's ’ I thought to myself. I could have laughed at the thought.To think that some part of me still scrambled for sanity. Some sort of justification. Anything which could be possible aside from the horrific possibility.But it was futile. There was only a slim chance, and I wasn't foolish enough to hope anymore.Every ounce of hope I had felt had been drowned out one way or th

Ariezel “Look out there! It's a pretty bird!"I looked in command, spotting the bird Camilla spoke of.Rubbing her hair gently, I shifted my gaze to face her.“Yes. It is a lovely bird." I said, smiling at her giggle.She turned back, her red curls bouncing along with her.She was the youngest out of the two of my half sisters, nine years old, although she continuously argues that she was turning ten.After getting to know Florian, he introduced me to both of them with joy. Although for now they only saw me as an aunt and the future Luna, in spite of our resemblance.It hadn't taken long for her to grow used to me, although Jolene, the older one, was more reserved.I turned to look at her in the hall we were staying in. She lounged in a chair, short blonde tresses resting on the couch as she read a book. She was the sole outlier out of us, and she was mostly quiet, always analyzing whenever I was present.It was okay, I didn't mind staying for as long as it took for her to get used t

143: AriezelIn the end, Alys and Harriet left us alone in the room. We stared at each other for what seemed like ages.I couldn't believe my eyes as I stared at the man in front of me. It seemed more like a dream as I looked at him over.I felt him doing the same to me, awe and surprise written over his face.But we couldn't stay in silence for long. Not as it stretched to the point of awkwardness. Finally regaining a bit of my senses, I parted my lips to speak.“Hello." Both our voices chorused.I blinked in surprise. As it seemed we had both spoken at the same time.The single word seemed to sway through the tension that was presented. I cracked my lips in a small smile.“Please sit down." I said, gesturing to the chair which Alys once sat in.I was sure Alys must have been grilling Harriet by now. After all, she hadn't kept this from just me but from her as well.I waved the thought away easily. Alys and Harriet were the last thing on my mind as he sat down.It was even more uncan

Ariezel“So one of the members said that she insulted her butt, so the other- her name was…Amber I think? Proceeded to shiver her own butt in my face just for comparison.”My stomach hurt badly solely from the amount of times I laughed. It was so difficult to catch my breath from the words Alys was saying.Thankfully, she waited till I was done before she spoke again.“In the end," Alys sighed despondently “The fight turned into a butt comparing contest with people as the audience and I being the judge. All I could think of at the moment was that this wasn't what I had prepared for."I howled again in laughter, the humor of her deadpan words further aggravated by the resigned, almost haunted look on her face. In my laughter I vaguely heard Alys laughter follow as minutes passed.My breaths heaving for air I looked at Alys to find an amused look on her face.“I glad that my misery could make you a little bit happy.” she said.I shook my head quickly in response .“I'm so sorry." I apo

AriezelI was weightless, swimming in darkness without a care in the world. It felt like there was nothing holding me back. It might as well have been true.Like wisps of smoke, memories and voices came to me, only to fade away the moment I tried reaching out for them. In the end, I remained floating.I didn't know how much time I had spent, but soon, everything began to fade. The weightless darkness I floated in materialized until a firmament grew below, carrying me. The weightless darkness faded into something else. Something more material.Like a disk, I was drawn out of my water and the peaceful darkness, into something more material.And slowly but surely, I opened my heavy eyelids to see blinding light.It took me time to adjust, squinting and blinking against the harsh brightness. Once I finally did, all my other senses came back.A soft but firm surface below me, the scent of comfort that wafted over and ceiling I felt familiar in.Where was I?My memories then came back and

AsherI focused on her, taking her hand in mine in spite of everything in me that resisted.“Hello Serena." I said in a gratingly low voice, looking into her eyes.She sighed, looking awestruck as she looked at me.She, just like all the others who had once fought and scrambled to force me to mate with them, only saw what I was from the outside. A ruthless alpha and a powerful one.There was only one who didn't.Thoughts hammered in my head, coaxing me to go back and fix what I had done. I stayed firm however and brought the blonde woman closer.It was only a matter of time.“Let's go inside Serena.” coaxing her away, I led her inside, eyeing the rest of her guards who moved away, paving the path for us.Together, we moved through the forest with her and I at the forefront whilst the rest of my soldiers and hers followed from behind. Our arms were linked as we walked while she spoke ravingly. She kept on rambling about how she knew that I was going to come back to her and all her :sac

Ariezel My breath caught as those words reverberated through my brain long after they had gone.‘What?'My heart stuttered the moment I heard them, confusion filling my senses as I looked at him.It wasn't an illusion. Those were the words that came out of his mouth.‘Why?’What was he thinking? Why would he say that?I tried to look at him, praying that he would look at me and tell me that it was a hoax or something. Anything.But he kept his eyes away, focusing on Serena.“Asher." I cried out. I struggled against their grip, uncaring at that moment. It was only when I felt the threatening cool metal pressing against me in warning that I stopped.I didn't stop looking at him however, hoping that my call would finally make him focus on me.To my relief, it did.When he looked at me, I didn't expect to see his gaze so cold and shuttered.I was thrown aback by the sudden stare. This wasn't my Asher. The distance in his stare reminded me of back then, when he suddenly left me.My blood t

Ariezel “Relax. He'll be back in no time.” Alys said.I smiled at her in turn, yet I couldn't focus properly.Under the protection of soldiers within my room, Alys and Harriet stayed to keep me company throughout. Hours had passed, yet with no news, we stayed in place with more worries than not.Alys had left the hospital and held the same worried gaze in spite of her constant assurance. It was especially more of a necessity for her considering that Ambrose had gone along with Asher. Now we were both waiting and hoping that all went well for the sake of our mates.“I…I actually have something to tell you guys." Harriet spoke hesitantly.I was grateful for any distraction that could take away the churning anxiety.I had never expected what she would say next.“I found my mate."My jaw dropped.“Oh my…oh Goddess." Alys was the first to move forward, taking Harriet's hands in hers.“That's so good. I'm happy for you.” Alys gushed out.I knew that in spite of her carefree attitude, she

Asher The night was still, without so much as a cricket sound.My gaze swept the place. As I had expected, the security was lax.‘How foolish of them.’We had left the pack by evening, marching and moving until we hid close to the border of the Pack.When I told Ariezel of the sped up plans, she was worried, kissing me goodbye on the forehead.“Be safe." She whispered.My heart skipped a beat for her, knowing that she was out of my reach, filling me with anxiety.But there was no reason for me to be so worried about her this time. I had placed several guards under her to watch.Now? It was already midnight. We had trailed the path, waiting inconspicuously for hours. Whether or not Derek was here, at least I would be able to finish off one thing.It was soon time. My instincts were on overdrive, pumped with adrenaline. I could feel the weight of the celrescent moon above us.They wouldn't see this coming.I rose my hand to signal them all.This was the same thing they had done to us.

Asher “199…200.” I grunted out, pushing my body up.Only a day was left before the attack was launched. Until them, I had to continuously put myself in prime condition for certain victory.That involved constantly working out day by day, straining myself to the limits within the span of time I had.My days had only been limited to those two things; training and Ariezel. I wasn't shy to say that the majority of my time was spent with Ariezel, whether it was from taking walks with her to watching over her in the nights till early in the morning. I remained constantly by her side.Nothing was going to happen overnight, much less after two days. She was still reeling from my acceptance and remained hesitant. My heart still ached as she woke up with nightmares.But unlike before, she never faked a smile like before. She spoke openly about her nightmares before she slipped back into sleep. Even when she stiffened at the mention of her condition, whenever I was there, she relaxed. This tim
