William. I knew it was late but, I knew I needed to move quickly. Finding Samuel Ross wasn't only about protecting my wife, it was also about protecting humanity from unruly characters. If The witches or the rogue hunters got him, they would know who Ellis is, and that would put a lot of burden on us to protect her. After facing Dimitri, I doubt we would be able to survive an attack from witches and Hunters together. Our failure could help them gain access to Ellis and take Dinah's essence from her. That would put the werewolf race and human race in trouble. Witches with god-like powers would be extremely dangerous, and so would rogue hunters with god-like powers be dangerous too. I need to be wise and be strategic about dealing with the issue so that the final attack that we would have to withstand won't be much. The best option was to pick them off one at a time, Which was why having Samuel in my custody was the best option. I called Alpha Whiterose, and he answered. " Clearsa
Ellis William did not wait for me to respond to his words. He carried Derek and headed straight to his office. I did not relent. I followed him, and I could swear I heard the mages giggling. " Why would you say that, William?" I asked him, really angry. " You heard what I said, Ellis, you are sitting this one out," he said, putting Derek down. Derek ran to his playing section in the office and completely ignored us. " He is my father, William. I deserve to be there," I argued. " And you are my wife, my mate, and I said no," he replied, getting angry with me. " Who made you the boss of me?" I asked him, livid. There was a knock on the door, and William asked the person to enter. It was Audrey, she didn't speak to us, she just carried Derek and left. I could swear she was giggling. " I am your Husband and your mate." William said. " And so? That does not give you the right to boss me around?" I replied. " Ellis, you think this is a joke. You almost died the last time." He said.
William. I was so happy that Ellis had agreed to remain. Although I was sad she referred to the cage incident, I hoped she would one day forgive all my wrongs. As we got ready to leave, Ellis was very supportive. " Promise me you will come home. If you can't get him, abort the mission and come home." She begged me. Derek and Ellis waved us goodbye. Melena followed, but Audrey remained. We left in a small bus with three warrior wolves. " Melena, can you mask our scents along with Samuel's when we get him?" I asked the mage, trying to make the mission as covert as possible. " I can do better," she winked, "I can mask all our scents and make us look different," she assured me, and I relaxed. " How were you able to convince Ellis not to come?" She asked, and I told her the truth. " Well, that was smart because masking her divine scent would have been difficult," she confessed, and I was very happy my wife had agreed. If the witches were not going to be there, I would have come
William We arrived at the Estate late in the night. I did not tell Ellis we were on our way because I wanted to surprise her. I also asked Melena to keep it to herself until I broke the news to Ellis. " I don't think it is wise Ellis sees me," Samuel said, sounding nervous, while I was ushering him to a room in the guest quarters. " Why is that, Samuel?" I asked, knowing exactly why. Patrick and I were angry with him for that very same reason. " I couldn't tell her that I had sold her. I lied that I secured a job for her here, just so she would agree to come. I am sure she is yet to forgive me for selling her into slavery." Samuel said, wiping his tears. " What you tried with me, Samuel was very dangerous. Not telling me who she is and not telling her she had been sold or why. I have to commend your daughter for adjusting to her situation immediately." I pointed out to him angrily. " Jasper came. First, he came to look for you, after coming to my home a couple of times and findin
Ellis I couldn't believe my eyes. William had succeeded. I hugged my father so tightly, knowing he had been through so much to protect my identity. " I am sorry, Ellis. I am so sorry," he wept. " It's okay, daddy. We are together now." I assured him. I broke the hug and sat on the couch in his room. He sat next to me staring at me. I noticed he had dyed his hair black. " I see you took your advice and dyed your hair," I said laughing and he touched his hair. " You found my letter?" He asked, and I nodded. " I found two letters," I told him, and he frowned. I knew now that he wasn't the writer of the second letter. " Apart from our hidden compartment, there was a letter in the cupboard that said I should contact Jasper Wild to help find you," I said, and he squeezed his face in anger. " That bastard!" was all he could say. " Ellis, I need to explain some things to you. I guess you have found out a lot by now, but I still need to tell you my side of the story," he said, and I
William. My father and I were with Derek in his playroom when Ellis entered with her father. I saw the scolding look in her eyes, and I figured her father had told her what I said. My father stood up to meet Ellis's father. " Father, meet Mr Samuel Ross, Ellis's father. Samuel Ross, meet my father, Alpha Peter Clearsand," I introduced both of them, and they shook each other's hands. " Thank you for raising such a magnificent daughter and bringing love into my son's life," my father said, and Samuel smiled. " The pleasure is mine, sir. Thank you for taking care of my girl and accepting her into your prestigious family," he replied, and they both smiled. " Daddy, meet Derek, he will soon be two," Ellis said introducing Derek to her father. The man picked up his grandson, and tears began to roll down his cheeks. " I wish Kathryn was here to see this. You look so much like your mother," he said, looking at Derek. Samuel's reaction was understandable. He thought he had lost everyt
William. Jasper Wild arrived as he promised. He sat across from my table, and I asked Patrick to excuse us. " Finally, I was able to get your attention," I said, trying to lighten the mood of the tense atmosphere. " Why did you insist on this meeting, Clearsand? I have a lot on my plate," he said, getting straight to the point. I noticed he was more stressed out than usual, which indicated he was dealing with a very hard situation. " I believe the reason is important to pull you out of your busy schedule," I replied, and he looked at me a bit eagerly. " As you might have heard by now, Dimitri is history," I said, boasting. " Yes, I heard you cleared his brood. Thanks, by the way," he said, accepting that I had done his job for him. " There is nothing to thank me for. My pack was under fire because of that blood-sucking bastard. By the way, did you know he was a mage, and he was working together with rogue witches and hunters?" I asked him, and the expression on his face softened
William When we got to the guesthouse, I decided to call Ellis to inform her I would not be coming home. " Hello darling," I said to her and she was happy on the phone. Seeing her father and learning the truth had fixed something that was broken in her. " I won't be coming home tonight. Jasper and I have things to do." I told her and the energy in her voice dropped a bit. " Hope everything is fine?" She finally asked. " Yes, everything is fine. Do not worry you will see me tomorrow." I assured her. We said our I- love -yous and hung up. " Wife or Mate?" Jasper asked me and I smiled. " Wife and Mate" I responded and he looked confused. " You finally divorced your human wife?" He asked and I shook my head. " Actually, the mate bond thing didn't work out for me. My heart was already stolen before I found my fated mate, so I had to reject her." I confessed. " So your wife is human?" he asked, and I nodded, and his eyes widened with some realisation that I couldn't figure out.
