POV AzaleaAs I entered the cabin, he rushed to me, enveloping me in a tight hug. "Azalea, let's start fresh. No more secrets. I promise," he murmured as he held me close. I sensed the tension in his body, the weariness of keeping everything bottled up. I wanted to trust him again, to give him a chance. So I nodded and buried my face in his chest, releasing a shaky breath. He embraced me for what seemed like an eternity before slowly letting go. "I know it won't happen overnight, but I'll do everything to regain your trust," he said in a calm voice. "To show you that I can be the man you deserve." His touch wiped away a tear that had rolled down my cheek, stirring deep emotions within me."We'll begin by being open and honest with each other, okay?" His words hung in the air as I struggled to respond, but eventually nodded again, hoping it would be enough this time. I had always been truthful with him; it was he who hadn't been honest with me.We settled on the couch as he held me
My Alpha's First Love Returned: A Tale of Redemption Chapter Twenty-Three
POV Thorne I woke up and my head hurt from being in an uncomfortable position all night. The sound wood still held the scent of last night's fire, and it was easy to forget where I was. The weight of my actions and confessions hung heavy on my chest as I forced myself up on the sofa where we fell asleep. Azalea looked so peaceful as she slept with her hair spread out around her. I ached to touch her, to feel her warmth against my skin. Slowly, I picked her up in my arms and carried her with me to the bedroom. I gently placed her on the bed, making sure she was comfortable. I climbed in bed next to her and cradled her in my arms, breathing in her sweet, familiar scent.As the sun began to rise, I couldn't help but feel a mixture of hope and fear. Hope that Azalea would one day forgive me, and fear that she never could. I knew I had to give her time, and I promised myself that I would respect her decision, no matter how difficult it might be for me. "I promise you, Azalea, I will become
My Alpha's First Love Returned: A Tale of Redemption Chapter Twenty-Four
POV Azalea "Azalea," he began, his voice trembling slightly, I could tell he was nervous by the way his Adam's apple was bobbing. "I know I've made a lot of mistakes, and I don't expect you to forgive me. But I want you to know that I am truly sorry for everything I've done. You are the most amazing woman I've ever known, and I am so grateful for every moment we've spent together. You have given me a purpose, a reason to live. You make me want to be better, to be stronger. I love you more than anything in this world, and if you'll have me, I swear to spend the rest of my life making it up to you. I swear to protect you, to cherish you, and to love you faithfully, until the end of time. Will you marry me?" I sat literally on the edge of my seat, unable to form any coherent thought. His words washed over me like a wave, leaving me reeling. The love he spoke of, the passion and the devotion...it was everything I'd ever dreamed of, everything I'd ever wanted. But could I trust hi
My Alpha's First Love Returned: A Tale of Redemption Chapter Twenty-Five
POV Thorne She said no. It tore through my heart like a knife. It was like she didn't even know me, didn't understand the depth of my feelings, the way I'd changed. I had to keep trying. I couldn't give up on us. Not yet. As we traveled back to the Crescent Moon pack I felt like a weight was pressing down on my chest, making it hard to breathe. Every time I looked over at her, I could see the doubt in her eyes, and it killed me a little more inside. Fuck, it hurt so much. Would she ever trust me again? I looked up at the sky wondering if the Moon Goddess was watching the events unfold. Did she make a mistake? Was this some sort of test of the fates?I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to push her, but I needed her to know how I felt. So, I tried a different approach. I'd be there for her, supporting her however she needed me. And maybe, just maybe, if she saw how much I cared, how much I wanted this, she'd eventually give in. But deep down, I knew that it was a long sh

POV Azalea Thorne's kiss left my wolf on edge, her claws itching for release. I moaned against his lips, feeling the tension in my body begin to unravel as I leaned further into him. The feel of his tongue battling with mine made shivers go down my spine. I couldn't hold back the whimper that escaped. My head was getting foggy due to the lack of oxygen.When he finally pulled away and I cursed my body for the reaction it had. I had to be strong but how when every fiber of my being wanted his touch, his kisses, his body pushed up against me. After he left me I went inside. I had seen Axel outside but we still hadn't been talking much to him since the night he injured Thorne. He could have killed him!As I closed the door I fell to the floor, that kiss caused my knees to go weak and my insides do flips but I knew I had to be cautious. Just because he promised me the moon and the stars while we were at the Starlight Gatherers pack didn't mean things had changed. Now more

POV Thorne As I stood in the shower, my scrapes and bruises from my fight with Axel and Noah stinging under the hot water, I replayed the words spoken in a fit oh rage. "Too bad they didn't kill you, you're going to ruin everything." What did it mean? Who was he talking about? He did say THEY didn't he? "This isn't over, Thorne. I will be back and I will take everything of importance to you...you crossed the line now, Thorne. Be prepared for blood." The words circled in my mind over and over. It was clear that there was a deeper meaning to them. I finished showering and dried off, putting on a pair of sweatpants and a loose shirt before padding down the hall to the kitchen. As I sat at the table my phone pinged and I looked down at the number. It was an unfamiliar one. Curiosity getting the better of me, I opened the text and my heart stopped. On my screen was picture of Axel. Fucking Axel Rivers was in Azalea's house with his arms around her waist with a caption that read: You may

POV Azalea "What the hell is going on here, Azalea?" Thorne asked, his voice shaking with anger. "And what do you mean you don't know where he is?" I glanced at Thorne, confused. I look at him and remember what Axel told me about Thorne trying to kill him. He wouldn't lie about that, would he? "Fine, he is here...but you stay away from him!" I yelled, my voice cracking. "He's my friend, and you have no right to harm him!" I took a step forward, my hand outstretched, but Thorne grabbed my wrist, his grip tight and painful. "H-Harm him?" He stammered, his eyes darting between me and the bathroom. "That's not what this is about. I just need to know why he's here." "He came here after you tried to kill him...he was injured so I took him in." I said as I narrowed my eyes at him. His whole demeanor changed and I saw his eyes darken. "He's lying to you, Azalea." He grabbed my face to make me look at him. "He was the one who...you know what never mind! If you want to believe that lying s

POV Axel "Stop it!" Azalea screamed as Thorne lunged at me. Foolish woman had placed herself right between two irate werewolves. I tried to move her out of harm's way but I wasn't able to stop the train wreck that already began to derail.Thorne and I tangled on the ground, tearing at each other with fangs and claws, growling and snarling like the beasts we were. We fought for dominance and for possession of the one we both wanted. I could feel my strength wavering, my injuries from the night before hampering my movements. But I wasn't about to let that stop me. I would fight until the very end, until one of us was dead. "Ple-ease stop." Azalea's sweet voice played through the bedroom. I wiped the blood from my brow as I turned my head to glare at her. She stood in the doorway, her hands on her hips, tears streaming down her face. "You're both acting like animals. Can't you just talk this out like civilized people?" This was the way I talked. I did this and fucking and since the la

POV Thorne The next morning, I woke up to find Azalea curled up in my arms, her head on my chest. She stirred, stretching lazily as she opened her eyes, and smiled up at me. It was the most beautiful sight I'd ever seen. I ran my fingers through her hair, marveling at how good it felt to have her here with me. "Good morning, Luna," I whispered, kissing her forehead. She ran her hand over my chest, "Good morning, Alpha," she murmured back. "What do you want to do today? You have two options. Option one, stay in bed all day making love or option two, make love in every area of the house?" I asked her with a grin. She giggled, "Well, since we have the whole day...""My plan is to get you pregnant with my pups, baby." I growled, kissing her deeply. "I want our pack to be strong, and I want them to have you as their mother." She looked up at me with tears in her eyes, and I knew what she was thinking. "I love you, Thorne. I will always love you. And I will always be your Luna, no
My Alpha's First Love Returned: A Tale of Redemption Chapter Forty-Six
POV Azalea I nestled deeper into the warm embrace of my mate's strong arms, feeling the steady beat of his heart against my back. His skin was so smooth, and his muscles so defined. It was as if he were sculpted from marble, and I was his masterpiece. The warm water lapped gently at my skin, easing away the tension that had built up over the past few days. I closed my eyes, savoring the feeling of being so close to him, wanting to stay like this forever."Make love to me, Thorne." I whispered, feeling the need for him to take me, claim me, mark me as his. I arched my back, pressing my body further into his. His hands skimmed down my sides, cupping my hips before sliding lower, and I let out a moan as he found my core. His fingers traced circles around my entrance, teasing and taunting me. I felt the familiar ache begin to build deep within, a longing so intense it threatened to consume me."Is that what my Luna wants from her Alpha?" Thorne whispered, his voice rough with d
My Alpha's First Love Returned: A Tale of Redemption Chapter Forty-Five
POV ThorneI went to the door and took a deep breath as I opened the door to see her. When I saw her dressed in her favorite sweater and jeans, I felt a wave of nostalgia wash over me. She looked as beautiful as ever. "Hey," I said softly, not knowing what else to say. As she walked in I checked out her ass in the jeans she was wearing. I felt my wolf stirring inside me, wanting to claim her right there. "Stop it." I told him as she took a seat on the sofa, her sweater hanging low enough to give me a glimpse of her perfect valleys beneath. My wolf whined in response. I understood his response. Azalea's body was amazing"So what did you want to talk about?" She asked, glancing around the room before meeting my eyes again. Her gaze was guarded, as if she was waiting for me to spring some sort of trap. I had her he

POV Thorne The ceremony for the Alpha and Luna of The Gray Ridge Pack had finally arrived and I waited for Azalea to join me. When she arrived wearing a beautiful sapphire blue gown that hugged her curves perfectly, my breath caught in my throat. She looked so stunning it was hard to believe it was her. She approached me and I offered her my arm, leading her to the front of the hall where the rest of the pack was gathering.It was just the two of us and I was happy that Axel didn't accompany her this time and Vanessa wasn't able to attend either. We met the Alpha and Luna from the Gray Ridge Pack and made our rounds, shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries. I could see the way the other pack members looked at Azalea, their eyes full of admiration and respect. She was truly beautiful, not just on the outside, but inside as well. She was kind, caring, and selfless, always putting others before herself. A true Luna if I ever saw one."Shall we?" I asked and led her to the dance fl
My Alpha's First Love Returned: A Tale of Redemption Chapter Forty-Three
POV AxelAfter I left Azalea's home I headed to see the only person who I could confide in, the only person who would understand; Vanessa. As I walked into her room she was in the middle of fucking Thorne's brother Victor. She was twisted, I'll give her that. Sleeping with Thorne's brother while stringing along Thorne on a string. After a while I grew tired of their constant moaning and pulled the blankets off, grabbing their attention. "Get the fuck out, Pretty Boy! " I told him, shoving him roughly away from Vanessa. "And you, you little slut, you're lucky I don't kill you right now. " I growled at her, my anger bubbling just beneath the surface. "What the hell do you think you're doing? You know you're mine, you know you're meant for me!" Vanessa looked at me and smiled, licking her lips seductively. "Oh, Axel, you're so dramatic. You know you can't live without me. And I need you just as much. We're perfect together." She crawled across the bed towards me, her fingers trailing

POV Azalea As I listened to Glenda, I sighed heavily, leaning against the doorframe. Glenda put a comforting hand on my shoulder. "I know it's hard, but take all the time you need," she said softly. "You don't have to rush into anything." I nodded, feeling a bit of relief wash over me. I wasn't sure if I could ever forgive Thorne for what he'd done, but I also didn't want to lose him completely. I needed time to sort out my feelings, to figure out if there was any way for us to move forward. It didn't help matters that Vanessa seemed to be lurking around every corner either, it really felt as if all the cards were stacked against us and no matter what we did they could fall at any given moment. I didn't want to be constantly looking over my shoulder, constantly worrying about what she might say or do next. I needed to focus on myself, on finding my own happiness and peace. I started up my classes again for business and kept my distance from any duties as Luna of the pack.

POV Azalea Glenda looked at Thorne again before leaning in closer to me. "I know you're hurting, Azalea. And I know that Thorne can be...difficult at times. But I also know that he loves you and he's willing to do anything to make things right." She paused, searching my eyes. "Give him a chance to prove it to you."I felt my heart lurch at her words. I wanted to believe her, wanted to believe that Thorne really did love me and that he would change. But at the same time, I was so hurt and angry. I didn't know what to do."I-I don't know," I stammered. "I just need some time."Glenda nodded understandingly. "Of course you do. But don't shut him out completely. He's your mate, Azalea. You belong together..."I furrowed my brows, "How do you know that?" I asked."I beg your pardon, Dear?" She asked me, her eyes searching mine."How do you know we are even meant to be together. The Moon Goddess can be mistaken, she can't always be right, can she?" Glenda's eyes grew wide wi

POV Azalea Days went by since my return and after my fall-out with Axel over where I was and what I was doing I started to slowly settle back into the world around me. I didn't, however, take on any duties as the Luna. That was a title I wanted nothing to do with currently, that title reminded me of Thorne and his infidelity. I had heard he went to look for me while Axel stayed behind but I wasn't about to get caught up in emotions again. He probably just went to look for me because he felt guilty for causing my decision to leave in the first place, whatever the reason I could not allow it to influence me in any way, I promised myself I would not, could not fall into that trap again. Sure it would be hard but I had to try.As I was sitting on my front porch I saw a familiar car driving down the road. Thorne had returned. "Hello?" I called out to him as he walked up to the porch."Hello, my love," he said, looking a bit worn out. "I'm sorry for not returning sooner, I had to take
My Alpha's First Love Returned: A Tale of Redemption Chapter Thirty-Nine
Finally, I reached the cabin. It was small and quaint, nestled at the base of a hill. The front door was open, a invitation to come inside. With a deep breath, I stepped inside. The air smelled of pine and wood smoke, and there was a cozy fire crackling in the fireplace. I called out her name, my voice soft and uncertain. There was no answer, then an older woman appeared from the back, she was watching me, her hazel eyes held mine."You won't find your Azalea here, child. She went back to your pack." She said softly then went into the kitchen and began setting the table for two. "Who are you?" I asked her as I watched her busy herself in the kitchen."I'm Glenda, child. I'm a hybrid werewolf who owns the local Inn where your Azalea was staying up until recently. Oh that girl, she's one tough cookie, that one." She said as she spoke of Azalea."How do you know who I am?" I asked and she looked at me, wrapping her long finger nails around a blue talisman. "Oh, I have my wa
