My Twin Alpha Valentines Chapter 235: The Road to Medicine Bow (Ryder's POV)
(Ryder's POV)It felt like time was moving so slowly it might as well be going backwards.The wait at the airport felt like torture. The flight itself was a nightmare because some Karen felt like she deserved a window seat, even though she hadn't been assigned one and she, of course, had to make a big scene about it. Then we had issues at the car hire place because insisted on something with four-wheel drive and they didn't have anything, so we had to try another dealership.Now we were finally on the highway headed toward the Medicine Bow Pack. The monotonous hum of tires on the asphalt filled me with anxiety. It felt like we were headed further away from Kate rather than toward her.I glanced over at Tyler as he yawned, blinking his eyes furiously as he tried to keep focus. He was exhausted. We both were. We hadn't slept in over 24 hours and it was starting to take its toll on us."Want me to drive?" I offered, knowing I wasn't doing much better than him, but seeing that he might ne
My Twin Alpha Valentines Chapter 236: The Deception (Part 1) (Katelyn's POV)
(Katelyn's POV)I heard Harlan's footsteps echoing as he retreated down the hallway, and to my relief, I felt like I could breathe again.It only lasted a moment though, and was quickly overshadowed by a crushing wave of defeat as my eyes darted around the room for the millionth time, desperately searching for an escape route I might have somehow missed.Of course, there was nothing. No magical doors had suddenly appeared, none of the windows opened up onto lush green fields where I could disappear into the distance, there was no forgotten cell phone waiting on a desk that would allow me to call for help.For a second, I clung to the hope that Tyler and Ryder would come bursting through the door at any moment. But deep down, I knew I was just setting myself up for disappointment.They had no way of finding me. The harsh truth crushed me beneath its weight. I realized that if I ever wanted to see them again, I was going to have to figure this out on my own.The admission felt like a ki
My Twin Alpha Valentines Chapter 237: The Deception (Part 2)
He halted for a moment, giving me an opportunity to continue, but he didn't release my wrist and I was certain it was going to snap if I so much as breathed too hard.In that split second, an idea formed in my mind. He was so set on me being his. He was possessive and jealous. If I could use that to my advantage..."Please," I begged as tears rolled down my cheeks. "It's just... I've been waiting for my Mating Celebration," I falsely confessed. The tears in my eyes now served a new purpose. Besides being a clear indication of my pain, they also helped me look more weak and vulnerable.Harlan released my hand immediately, but suspicion still clouded his features. "Bullshit!" he spat, though I could see the tiniest hint of doubt beginning to form in his eyes.I rubbed my aching wrist as I shrugged awkwardly, not knowing how to further sell the lie and hoping my silence might be more convincing than words.Wiping the tears from my eyes, I looked down at my feet, avoiding his searching ga
My Twin Alpha Valentines Chapter 238: The Reflection
The words left a bitter taste in my mouth.There was a moment of silence, and I wondered if Harlan hadn't maybe already fallen asleep. But then I felt him shift, his arm tightening around me."What do you mean?" he asked, his voice a low rumble against my ear.I took a deep breath, mentally preparing myself for what I was about to do. For the lies I was about to tell. I didn't want to do it, but I knew I had to play this game if I wanted any chance of escape."From the River Gorge Pack," I elaborated, forcing a tremor into my voice. "I... I never wanted two mates..." I went on, once again trying to mix the lies with the truth to make my story more believable.Harlan's hand stilled on my arm, and I could practically feel his curious eyes on me."I... It's just hard, you know? The mate bond... I guess it makes you kind of crazy," I explained, figuring he probably had no idea what I meant because he had never felt it before."It's disgusting," he stated, the revulsion clear in his voice.
My Twin Alpha Valentines Chapter 239: Dinner with Alpha Jack (Tyler's POV)
(Tyler's POV)The aroma of grilled meat and roasted vegetables filled the air as we sat around Alpha Jack's rustic dining table. My stomach growled, reminding me just how long it had been since we'd eaten a proper meal.The exhaustion from hours awake and the stress of trying to track down Kate weighed me down, but the smell of food seemed to give me a spike of energy.Takoda grabbed extra plates and cutlery from the kitchen, setting them in front of Ryder and I before heading back to the kitchen and returning with a large roasting dish between two oven mitts.Alpha Jack gave him a nod and I wondered where the Luna might be, but it felt wrong to ask."Go ahead," Jack smiled, gesturing to the food on the table as Takoda took his place."Thank you," Ryder and I said gratefully. helping ourselves to the delicious-looking roast with vegetables.As we ate, Takoda leaned forward, his dark eyes curious. "So, what's your plan?" he asked, looking between Ryder and me. "How are you going to get
My Twin Alpha Valentines Chapter 240: A Shitty Plan (Jenna's POV)
(Jenna's POV)I stood frozen in my living room, Ryder’s voice still echoing through my mind even after I had hung up the phone.Harlan had kidnapped Kate...My heart pounded in my chest, and a cold sweat clung to my skin as I considered the gravity of the situation. This was Harlan we were talking about. The new Alpha of my pack. The same guy who had nearly gotten Kate exiled because his fragile ego couldn't handle rejection.Harlan had always been a self-serving and manipulative bastard, and if he had her, there was no way it could be good.I sank onto the couch, my mind spinning. I couldn't believe this was happening. Kate had seemed so happy. Her mates were great and she told me that she was starting to feel like she finally belonged, then that piece of shit had gone and ripped it all away. I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms.Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm myself. I would need to come up with some kind of plan. I would need some way of confronting Harlan to g
My Twin Alpha Valentines Chapter 241: Heart Attack (Ryder's POV)
(Ryder's POV)I'm pretty sure Tyler had been on the verge of throwing a punch in my direction, but when he heard that I was speaking to Jenna, he seemed to deflate, the tension suddenly leaving his body in a slow exhale.“What did she say?” he asked after I had ended the call, his voice filled with a mixture of hope and exhaustion.I sighed deeply before replying. “She said she’d try, but she’s not exactly close with Harlan. So I guess the chances of him opening up and sharing all the details of how he kidnapped her best friend probably aren't all that high,” I replied, feeling a gnawing disappointment settle over my chest.Tyler gave a small nod, his shoulders slumping slightly. “It was a good idea,” he admitted, his voice soft. “Let’s hope she can help.”He clapped me on the back, a gesture of solidarity that I hadn't realized I needed right now. Then he turned, leading the way back to Alpha Jack’s house. I followed, my mind still racing with all kinds of plans and plots to get her
My Twin Alpha Valentines Chapter 242: Ink (Ryder's POV)
(Ryder's POV)The pain in my chest was relentless, a constant ache that I couldn’t seem to shake. Every breath felt like a struggle, every heartbeat a reminder that Kate was out there, somewhere, in the clutches of that monster.My mind raced with thoughts of Kate and her capture, each one darker than the last. This couldn’t be happening. It wasn’t supposed to end like this. Harlan couldn’t win. It wasn’t fair.“I’m not giving up,” Tyler’s voice broke through the haze of my thoughts, pulling me back to the present.His tone was firm and resolute, but there was an underlying desperation in it that I could relate to.I nodded in agreement, the power of speech momentarily eluding me as my chest cramped again.I wasn’t giving up either, but it was hard to ignore the incessant voice in the back of my head that said we were running out of time, that the odds weren't on our side.Tyler likely had the same nagging voice in his head, because he continued, his voice firm, as if he were trying to
