Do you think Alpha will let Patricia and Nico go in exchange for his daughter?
~Nicholas~I could hear my heart thumping in my heart.Even though I had thought things through after hearing my mother's conversation and thought that it was better for us to go to Fernando to save Amara, deep down I was worried about everything. I was afraid that Fernando would hurt my mother like what happened in the past.I looked at Mom as she continued to walk away without turning back.I could tell that her decision was final and there was no way she was going to change her mind. Closing my eyes momentarily and heaving a deep sigh, I was about to turn around and follow behind my mother when Alpha made the first step that I was about to make.His strides were long and in a matter of seconds, he caught up with my mother and grabbed her hand, stopping her from walking any further.My mother turned around and locked eyes with her mate. She looked at his big hand firmly wrapped around her wrist stopping her from walking away then slowly raised her head to look at him,tears flowed from
~Nicholas~"I will be back.Nico,take care of your mother for me."Alpha told me and I nodded my head at his words.He looked at my mother and I could tell that they communicated through the mind link something that I couldn't decipher.That's what Amara and I do whenever we tease each other or talk dirty.I longed for my mate even more when I recalled the sweet teasing moments through the mind-link.Alpha and the beta left and I couldn't help but stare at them for a few seconds then looked back at my mother."Mom,I need to go back to the mansion."I informed her and she nodded at my words. Alpha has asked me to watch over my mother and I don't want anything to happen to her.I don't want to fail to watch over my mother the same way I failed to watch over my mate. My heart twisted inside my chest as though someone was squeezing it into a tiny ball when I gave it a thought.Mom listened to me and we headed towards the mansion in silence, everyone lost in his/her world of thoughts.I raised
~Nico~I creased my eyebrows when I heard Mom's words because I couldn't wrap my head around whatever she was talking about. Why was she feeling guilty when it was not her fault? Why was mom blaming herself for the universe being so unfair to her?"What do you mean? I don't understand where you're coming from and why you think that you have been mean to your mate.You love her wholehearted Mother, I can see it in your eyes every time you look at him.Where does being mean come from?"I couldn't help but ask because I wanted to understand better."Sometimes love is not enough to control or stop some things from happening, son. What caused all this?"She asked me with raised eyebrows."It's love, isn't it? This wouldn't have happened if Abraham and I wouldn't be in love and chose to stay by each other's side."Mom paused and heaved a deep sigh."What I'm trying to say is…I have never made any efforts to make up for all the difficulties that Abraham has endured because of me. I have been so
~Nico~It was quiet inside Amara's room for a while.I know my wolf was hurting just like me.My heart was bleeding.The only thing that could be done to stop it was finding my mate. Just to ascertain that Amara was in good hands and that nothing had happened to her in the hands of Fernando."I hate Fernando so much! How dare he kidnap our mate! He will be accountable if anything happens to our mate or if she gets hurt in any way."My wolf declared possessively and I couldn't help but smile at his words.My wolf and I both hated the bastard and wanted the king to pay for everything that he had done to us and for kidnapping our mate."I hope that our mate is okay. I also hope that we'll find her in one piece.I don't want anything to happen to her."My wolf said in a small voice in my head and I could feel the concern and worry in his voice."So do I, Leon. I love our mate so much and can't bring myself to imagine anything bad happening to her…"My wolf howled inside my head in response, i
~Nicholas~Alpha tensed when he heard my words.I know the words caught him off guard since he wasn't expecting to hear another bad news after his daughter's kidnap.However,he composed himself immediately.I know it took him a lot of courage to put on a straight face.There was no doubt that Alpha acted all tough because his men were around and Alpha's from other packs who united to defeat the bloody Alpha king."Just give me a minute,"Alpha told his men and stood up from the head of the table and left the office."I did everything to make sure that mom was okay.We talked and she promised me that he was going to stay until you give us the direction,"I felt the need to explain to Alpha because he had given me the responsibility to watch over his mate.However,he didn't say anything and I couldn't tell if he was mad at me or not.His strides were in a hurry as he headed over to the mansion.He kicked the wooden mahogany door and entered the house."Trisha?"He called and headed straight to th
~Amara~She could fool everyone else but not me.I knew her too well."Witch! What do you want from me!''I asked through gritted teeth and tried to free myself but to no avail.The rope on my limbs hurt so bad with each attempt to get free.My wrists had turned numb and I couldn't feel my palms anymore.I think they tied the ropes way too tight."You're right,I'm a witch because I hunted you down.Isn't that what witches do?"She asked with a raised brow and laughed as though that was the funniest joke of the year. "However,it's not me who wants something from you,bitch.It's our leader who wants something from you because you and your father owe him something which is very important to him.Does that statement ring a bell in your stupid head?"Sandra said and laughed sarcastically.There was no doubt that she was talking about Fernando."What do you have to offer me anyway?"She laughed even more after saying the words as though that was the funniest joke of the year.I gritted my teeth as an
~Amara~"I don't know,I just walked in few seconds ago and found her coughing.Maybe she feels thirsty,do you need some water,Amara?I can fetch you some,you know."The witch shrugged nonchalantly and pretended to be so caring and I couldn't believe it.She just choked me a few seconds ago and she was the reason why I was coughing yet she pretended as though she was innocent and put on an act.I could tell that she was afraid of the man who had just walked into the room a few seconds ago by how she behaved and talked in his presence.Even though I had never met Fernando or came face to face with him,I could tell that he was the man standing in front of me with bodyguards.He was the only person who could make people shiver the same way he did to Sandra.I wanted to laugh out loud but chose to keep my mouth shut.It was funny how things had changed in a blink of an eye.Who would have thought that there was someone who could make Sandra that obedient?She looked like a real devil just a few mi
~Amara~"Nico is my fated mate!You have no power to take him from me or to choose for him who is supposed to be with!"I said through gritted."We will see about that."He said and the corner of his lips curved into a wicked smile,"You're so sturbborn like your father.I see the root runs deep.I wanted to trade with your father but he was so sturbborn and it resulted to his mate's death.I see you're no different from him."I exhaled in anger and tried for the hundredth time to free myself from the claws of the cruel Alpha but all my struggles was in vain just like others.The corner of his lips curved into a smile as he watched me try my very best to get free from him.It reminded me of how Patricia explained to my Dad that he always took young ladies and made them his sex slaves and the thought of it sent shivers down my spine.How dare Fernando tell me that he would never allow me to have Nico and he was my fated mate?I think he had talked with Sandra and agreed that she would be mated t
