Julia POV I felt Eric pick me up and carry me bridal style out the hospital room door. As my body started to stiffen, Eric ran out the Pack hospital doors and towards the forest. “Please do not leave me,” I managed to mumble as I tried to breathe through the pain that was now encompassing my body. “I will not leave you,” Eric promised me as he reached a clearing. My body stiffened straight as a board in Eric’s arms forcing him to lay me on the ground. He kneeled beside me, “Just breathe, Julia; just breathe,” he kept murmuring as he kept trying to touch me. I tried to breathe, but all I could focus on was the pain. “Hold her in your arms,” I heard the doctor say. Eric picked my rigid body up as best he could. As he did, I felt a calming cross over me. “It is helping to ease her pain,” the doctor murmured, as he checked my vitals. “Why is this happening?” I heard Eric ask to the doctor. “I do not know. I do not know how we

Eric POV Julia’s wolf was stunning. She was a blessed white wolf. I did not know how, but I could see it before me. She was kissed by the Moon Goddess herself with a black star beside her right eye. It signalled that the wolf had a special gift. And that their birth was not of traditional descent. What that all meant, I would need to refresh myself with our history books. But for now, my wolf, Ken, wanted to play with his mate. We still had to be cautious. Julia was unaware of what was happening, and if anything, we would be keeping up with her to ensure she was safe. As we raced alongside of her wolf, I could see the strength that her wolf had. She was larger than a regular female wolf. Larger than a lot of male wolves. I tried to slow her down a few times, but her wolf was on a mission, and could not be swayed. We finally stopped at a lake, where she had stopped to sip the water. I was about to shift

Julia POV “Eric!” I screamed as he went down hard. I turned helplessly and saw men racing towards us. I was terrified. Were they the good guys? I had to trust they were. “Help him!” I yelled, as they moved around me and raced Eric towards the hospital. I do not know how, but I kept up with the men, “Eric, do not leave me,” I kept chanting, hoping he could hear me. We raced into the hospital and as we walked in, the Queen and King were waiting, “What happened?” the Queen demanded of me. “I do not know. We fought off wolves, and were walking back here when he passed out,” I said staring at his body as they dragged him away from me. “You fought off wolves?” the Queen stuttered looking at me. “I know,” I said to her turning away and moving to sit in a chair. Suddenly everything I had learned tonight hit me. Wolves were real. I was a wolf. I was real. Eric was real. Yet it was all surreal. The Queen moved closer to me, “

Julia POV The woman burst out laughing as she looked to Elizabeth, “You cannot seriously be entertaining this mere human, are you?” Louise demanded of Elizabeth. Carter stood a little taller and defensive of Elizabeth, while Elizabeth stepped forward. “Are you questioning my ability to identify the mate of my brother?” she questioned Louise. Louise’s smile faltered until she bowed to Elizabeth, “Of course not, my Queen, but you can appreciate my frustration at this woman somehow thinking she could be Eric’s mate,” Louise commented. “She is his mate. I already knew she was his mate. And she is a wolf, or have you lost your ability to scent a wolf with your alleged pregnancy?” Elizabeth stated to Louise. Louise paused to sniff, when she looked at me incredulously. “She has to be a witch! How could she have hidden her scent from all of us?” Louise yells, drawing the attention of others in the hall. I did not know what the big

Julia POV “What’s happening?” I cried out demanding to know what was wrong. All I got was being pushed out of the room by the nurse, with a growl. “Did you just growl at me?!?” I shouted slapping my hand on the door when it was shut in my face. Elizabeth came up to me, “What happened?” she asked gently. “I marked him, like you told me to. I waited a moment and then the machines went crazy,” I said as tears of frustration filled my eyes. “I am sure he is fine,” Elizabeth said, before I continued, “And then that nurse growled at me!” I declared still pissed off and confused by that. “Who growled at you?” Carter asked cautiously. I realized I was being childish, but I was distraught. “A nurse who pushed me from the room,” I said before looking at the closed door. “Nobody shuts a mate out of the room,” Elizabeth said as she stepped around me. “It is alright; I just want them to help him,” I said as Elizabeth wa

Eric POV I kept seeing flits of a movie in front of my eyes. Julia, my mate, my future. Louise, threatening me with taking my pup from me. Wait. Was Louise pregnant? I needed to find out and ensure the pup was not mine. Julia was my mate. I would not give her up. I could not give her up. I felt myself starting to wake up and moved my arm expecting to find Julia lying beside me. But all I felt were cold sheets. I slowly opened my eyes, looking around the room. It was empty. When I had fallen asleep, she was in my arms. Where would she have gone? I started to move, when the machine beside me started to go off. I looked down and saw that I was attached to machines. I moved to pull the IV from my arm, when the doctor rushed in. “Do not do that, Prince Eric. You need the medication inside that bag!” he declared.I slowed my movements, “Where is Julia?” I demanded of the doctor. He looked at me, distracted as he moved to ensure I had not

Eric POV I had been trying to connect with Elizabeth through our mind-link, but she had cut me off. I had also tried to connect with Julia, but not having marked her, that was impossible, as well. I was laying in this bed, in frustration as Julia was Goddess knew where. I tried to get up, but putting any weight on my leg was impossible. Fortunately, I picked myself up off the floor before anyone saw my attempt at walking. I was about to call the nurse to get me a wheelchair, when the door slowly pushed open. Elizabeth and Julia walked in. Julia was not making eye contact with me, which confused me. Elizabeth came forward, giving me a hug, “Good to see you are on the mend,” she said with a smirk. I nodded to her, more focused on my mate. “Well, I can see you are a chatty Cathy this morning. I will take my leave,” Elizabeth said as she walked past Julia giving her a little nudge towards me. As the door closed, I simply stare

Julia POV I laid with Eric, as we chatted about my upbringing. Had my mother given any indication who my father was? How I could contact him … anything? But the answer was always no. I am sure my mother had her reasons, but given the dynamic change to my world, a heads up would have been nice. I watched Eric struggle to get out of bed. It was time for him to be released. Although his leg continued to be an issue, he had been getting up, doing some physio and then getting back into bed exhausted for the past two days. I had reminded him I needed to get back to my life; I had jobs to get back to. “Julia, it is not safe for you to return to the city. We need to know what we are dealing with,” he said, distracted by the pain in his leg. I could see sweat on his brow, as he stood and was moving towards the washroom. I wanted to help him, but I did not know how. He took his clothes and shut the washroom

Julia POV “Julia, I am sorry,” Laura started to say. I held up my hand, “What are you sorry for? Just say it,” I said, as Eric stood beside me. “Yes, do not delay on our account,” the middle woman stated. Laura growled at her, and I stood in shock. She growled. How was that possible? “What are you?” I asked her, as she looked back at me. “It is difficult to explain,” she said when I cut her off, “Well try,” I said angrily. “I am a hybrid wolf, but my wolf is dormant,” Laura stated. “You just growled, how is it dormant?” I demanded, feeling a sense of betrayal, I did not know was possible. “I was born with the gene of a wolf, but my wolf is too weak to shift, so we never have,” she shared. I simply stared at her trying to process her words. “So, you knew you were a wolf, and that Lincoln was a wolf, but you never thought to mention it to me?” I yelled. “Oh, this is getting good,” the tall witch said. “S

Julia POV “What?” I questioned as I slowly turned my face to look at the woman claiming to be Martha. “She is crazy,” the woman stated but Laura continued to hold onto my arm tightly. “She was the one who just told me to get Lincoln released,” Laura claimed. I removed Laura’s hand from my arm, moving to stand in front of her. Jackson had already moved in front of Cami and Beatrix, while Eric tried to move in front of me. I saw Cami put Beatrix in her bassinet, and then turn to move beside Jackson. He tensed in anger, but did not take his eyes off the woman standing in front of him. “I am Henrietta’s twin. Of course, I look like her,” Martha stated, sounding more bored than anything. “You never said you were twins,” I murmured as I noticed Cami’s fingers moving from the corner of my eye. I said nothing but continued to watch Martha. “It did not matter. I want her captured as much as you do,” she replied, looking at her nai

Julia POV We left Cami and Jackson shortly after Martha went to her room. There was much to be done, and I wanted to check on Laura. We entered our place, when I heard a scream come from Laura’s room. We raced in, just in time to see something disappear in front of Laura. “What was it?” I demanded as I went to her, trying to get her to focus on me. I could see the fear in her eyes. “It was her,” she whispered. “Who?” I asked, getting her attention on me. “That witch. She was here and she threatened me. She promised she would kill me, if I did not help her get Lincoln free,” Laura said in a whisper. I looked to Eric, who nodded and turned away from us. He quickly turned back, “He is secure,” he stated, confirming that Lincoln was still in the dungeons. I nodded, looking back to Laura, “He is not free,” I assured her. “She is going to keep coming to me, until I give her what she wants,” Laura said, fidgeting with her hand
Rejecting the Prince's Mate Chapter 100 - On Guard
Eric POV We shared everything Lincoln had shared with us, before we put the baby down to sleep in the bassinet and continued to strategize how we were going to counter the attack from Henrietta. “I need to call in some backup,” Cami murmured as she continued to watch the baby. “Do you think they can help counter Henrietta?” Julia asked. Cami looked to her, “This is the most powerful witch, next to Henrietta. If anyone can fight her, and win, it will be this witch,” Cami replied. Nodding to her, “Then call her,” I suggested. Cami stood and made the call. Within minutes of her standing, there was this loud sound that seemed like a freight train was landing in the living room. Jackson immediately swiped the baby up in his arms, as Cami stood back, as if she knew what was happening. I pulled Julia closer to me as we all simply waited. Suddenly there was this flash of smoke, and as the smoke cleared a tall woman,

Julia POV After leaving Lincoln and his haunting words, we went back to see Laura. I was surprised to see her sitting up in her bed, sipping on a glass of water. She had looked afraid, until she saw me and relief lit up her face. I moved closer, holding out a hand towards Laura. She put her hand in mine, and I felt a moment of peace. Like this was the mother I had remembered. She had tears in her eyes, “I know who I am,” she said, as if she had come out of a trance. I smiled, as tears shone in my eyes as well, “I am glad; I am really glad,” I responded before moving towards Laura and hugging her for the first time since she came back. Laura held on tightly, and we just held each other as tears streamed down our faces. “I am sorry I was not stronger,” she offered, but I stood up wiping her tears away, “You have nothing to be sorry for. Lincoln is evil, and he took advantage of you,” I assured her. “I should have known better

Eric POV I watched as Julia showed the warriors various techniques to counter her attacks. They were very cautious with her, which I appreciated. It did not stop me from worrying. I saw her rub her back a few times and asked if she needed a break, but she scowled over at me, rendering me silent.Carter was taking notes and developing plans for the warriors to fight one another in their training. I knew it was helping, I just hated that this was Julia’s destiny. I was incredibly proud, but I wanted her to be safe. Inside the palace with our pups. But I knew she would be on the front line, and I would be beside her when the fight did come. And it would come; it was just a matter of when. Julia provided her last words of training for the day and moved towards me. She was tired, I could easily see it in her face, but she would not give an inch. I wanted to carry her home, and put her in the shower, but she would pretty much destroy me if I even

Julia POV I watched Cami come forward, with the baby wrapped up in a soft blanket. Cami had her cuddled close to her chest. I wanted to move forward to hug her, but Jackson was there first. He wrapped his arms around Cami and the baby girl. He kissed her forehead, before looking at the baby. “She is beautiful,” he commented, as Cami nodded in agreement. “She is special. I can already feel her power,” Cami murmured. We all knew what that meant. Another child that would require our devoted attention to protect her. “Have you thought about a name?” Elizabeth asked. Cami looked to Jackson, “I had thought about Beatrix; it means she is blessed and brings happiness,” she replied, waiting for Jackson’s opinion. He paused for a moment before looking to the baby. “I think Beatrix is a perfect name for this little angel,” he replied as Cami moved closer into his arms. I felt tears fill my eyes at the beautiful nam

Cami POV “One more push, Louise. One more, and your baby will be born,” the doctor said, gently encouraging Louise through another contraction. Louise slumped back, “I can’t,” she said, as tears rolled down her face. I held tightly to her hand, “You can do this, Louise. You are strong,” I said, encouraging her. I could see the pain of the contraction starting once again, Louise sat up and pushed one final time. Within seconds, the doctor cheered, “Good job, mom. Your baby girl is born,” the doctor said, as I wiped the tears streaming down my face. I knew she was talking to Louise, but I could not help the instant love I felt for this baby girl. The doctor lifted the baby for us both to see. Louise held her hands out, wanting the baby in her arms. The doctor started to move forward when Louise slumped backwards. The doctor passed the baby girl to me, as she tried to revive Louise. “What is happening?” the doctor shouted, a

Julia POV We left quickly after that outburst. We needed to consider what we had found out. First and foremost, we needed to get to Cami to discuss what this all meant. Eric had mind-linked Jackson to meet us at the palace. It was time to bring Elizabeth and Carter into the mix to ensure they were updated on what was happening. As we sat down with everyone, Eric brought them up to speed on what had been happening and most importantly the latest information from Lincoln. “What would the benefit be to the witch?” Elizabeth asked Cami. She shook her head, “Nothing; do you think Henrietta is stringing Lincoln along so she can acquire all the babies?” Cami asked. “For what purpose?” I asked, freeling frustrated. We seemed to be taking a step forward and then another backwards. “I do not know. I will put a call into the Council to determine what the linkage is,” she responded, moving away from us. “We need something, anything, t
