CHAPTER FIFTY-ONE | QUESTIONS NATHAN“I didn't know you had a sister," I state her harshly. I didn't mean to speak to her so harshly, but I couldn't help it. She thinks...she was told rather that she has a sister. She believes she does, but the truth is she never had a sister. “Are you sure that you are my boyfriend? Cause I am one hundred percent sure that I would have introduced you to my sister if you are truly the one for me." She says, looking at me suspiciously. “Trust me, I am the one for you."Taking her hand gently, I link our hands. Alena gasps in surprise and stares at me in wonder. “Do you feel that? Do you feel the spark?" I ask her. She widely shakes her head, switching her gaze from our interlocked hands to my face. “The spark means that you are mine, and you will always be mine...mine alone." She blushes, taking her eyes off my face and instead, staring at my hands holding her. The way the mentally younger Alena is behaving is quite amazing. She is so shy a
CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO | BABY DADDYNATHAN “Who the hell are you and why the fuck are you calling my Boyfriend your love?" Alena yells, emphasizing the word boyfriend. “You just scolded me for cursing but you just did the same thing." Carson points out. Alena rolls her eyes, blatantly ignoring him. She watches Clementina like a Lion ready to pounce on its prey. Clementina comes into the room and moves towards me, ignoring Alena's question. “Baby, you didn't come back to bed last night. I missed you." She says, looking directly at me. Confused, I turn to my back, then my left and my right, trying to find who she is talking to. Had she finally gone crazy and is now talking to ghosts? “Who the hell is she talking to?" I whisper to Carson. “I don't know, but something tells me that you and your mate will not like the answer to that." He whispers back. “Stop ignoring me, baby. What you did yesterday really hurt me. I know what I told you must have been a shock to you, but you didn't h
CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE | BROKEN TRUST NATHAN“I don't know what he was talking about," I respond. “But...but he just asked how my head is, and you also asked the same question earlier." “Half of the things that spill out of Carson's mouth are shit, and I only asked you how your head was because you asked me first. I don't know why I can't stop myself from telling her more lies. It is like I am being controlled by some supernatural force or some shit like that. “Oh, okay." She nods. “How did I get here?" Alena asks. “Do you mean to the hospital or the pack?" I ask back. “Both," She replies. “Well, as for how you got to my pack, your parents brought you here themselves. And as for how you got admitted, you fainted." “Funny thing, I can't remember my parents bringing me here." Her face scrunches up as she tries to recall when she was brought her. Panicking that she may remember something...or everything, I quickly grab her hand, stopping all her actions. “You said I fainted? Wha
CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR | WEREWOLF HUNTERSNATHAN The sound of shattering glass and screams filled with pain make me jump into action. I immediately take Alena's hand and drag her off the bed. We both hide on the other side of the bed, away from the door. I watch the door cautiously, anxiously waiting for what will happen next. More screams are heard, and then it is suspiciously quiet. I stay still for a few seconds before getting up and walking towards the door to check what the hell is going on. Alena's grip on my hand stops me from moving. “Please, don't leave me." She pleads. “I am not leaving you, baby, I just want to check what is going on. Just stay here for now, you will be fine." I tell her. I advance towards the door and attempt to open it, but to my shock, it is locked. Who the fuck locked us in. I try to forcefully push it open, but it doesn't bulge. The only option left is to break the damn door down. The sound of multiple feet running stops me from breaking down
FIFTY-FIVE | SAFE HOUSE NATHANWe land on the floor softly. I thought we did, but when I tried running again, the sound of Alena's whimper stops me. I was so caught up in making sure we escape safely that I forgot about Alena. Turning back to her, I crouch down. “Are you hurt?" I ask her softly. She glares at me. “I told you I couldn't jump. I clearly said that I would die if I jump, but you forced me to do so you fucking selfish bastard." She yells, groaning in pain. I wince at her words. “You are not dead are you?" Her eyes turn to slit, and I get scared that the fire in her eyes would burn me to death. “I have a broken leg, a broken rib, and a headache. I can't move, which means that I will definitely be caught and maybe killed or turned into an experiment. So I am dead." She dramatically responds. “Stop fucking exaggerating, we were not so far up for you to get injured that much," I say, rolling my eyes. Her mouth opens, ready to retort, but a gunshot makes her stop. Sh
CHAPTER FIFTY-SIX | DISAPPEAREDNATHAN Alena is no longer in the same place I kept her. I look around, wondering if she moved until I remember that she hurt her leg and can't walk. I immediately start panicking. “Alena, where the hell are you?" I dumbly call out. “Where the hell is she," Lucinda asks from behind me. “I can't find her, and I placed her here... right here," I reply, pointing to the chair I placed her in. “Maybe she left and joined the others in the safe house," Carson suggested. I want to tell them that she can't walk because she hurt herself, but I don't. Instead, I let myself believe that she could walk but was pretending just because she wanted me to carry her. “Let us go check then." We all head to the safe house. To my surprise, we go underground. “An underground safe house?" I ask, raising my eyes brows in surprise. “How the hell did you find this place, Carson?" “What can I say, I was a really curious kid... too curious if you ask me." He replies, gri
CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN | SUSPECTSNATHAN“What do you fucking mean? How the hell did they disappear?" Carson asks. “We searched every single corner, they are nowhere to be found," Lucinda replies, still panting. “Let me get this straight, Alena, Cara, and Clementina went missing on the same day and at the same time?" Carson asks. “Fuck! How the hell are we going to find my mate? Where do we even start searching from." Caleb covers his face with his hands. Honestly, I feel very sorry for him. He just found his mate and now she is gone. But, I feel even more sorry for myself, I can feel Alena's emotions, and I don't know what to think about what I am feeling. If only I had stayed when she asked me not to leave her, then we would have avoided all this shit.“I don't think the werewolf hunters kidnapped them, I think someone else did," I speak for the first time since the news of the three missing. “Why would you think that?" Caleb desperately asks. I would love to tell them that I ca
CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT | DEAD BODYNATHAN “Stop it! Stop it, Nathan, you are going to kill him." Someone yells. I don't listen to the voice, I am far too gone to stop. Something inside of me snapped when he talked about me cheating on Alena. He knows that it is not his words that are making me beat him up. It is the anger of failing Alena for the second time. The moon goddess gave me another chance to make things right when my mate lost her memories, and once again I fuck everything up. I was only attempting to keep my anger at bay, but Caleb's words broke my self-control. I don't stop punching him until someone pushes us apart. Carson looks at me in disappointment. “You guys are fucking grownups, start acting like one. You don't have to be petty, and neither do you have to use your fist to express yourself. What do you think your subjects would think or say if they were here right now, watching their Beta disrespecting their Alpha, and their Alpha who is supposed to be the bigge
