Resisting The Mate Bond 68
"Someone is here to see you."Ariana stood up quickly.It must be Breeana. She had been waiting for her sister. They had so much to talk about. Ariana was more than thankful for Reece's interference in sparing her life.She knew he had done it for his mate but it didn't erase her gratitude. She wanted to apologise to Breeana for all she had done before they shipped her off to whatever location the elders decided on. That had been Reece's concession to them. Even he wouldn't know where they sent her.Her mind drifted and she wondered how her mother was doing. She knew her mother was not the sort of woman to just collapse because of some shocking news so she wondered if something was wrong."Ariana."Ariana paused."Sarah? What are you doing here?"She was still unsure about how she felt about her old friend. She had been there for her even going as far as begging on her behalf endangering her life. However, on the flip side, Sarah encouraged a part of her that she wanted to control. To

"The Mountain Coast pack has sent someone to investigate. If we aren't careful, our secret would be ousted." Sarah informed them.Since her last conversation with Damien, this was the first time they had contacted her. Probably to make her sweat. Not that she had minded. It had just given her more time to sort out the Ariana issue without their meddling."And your identity is secured?"Of course, it was. Ariana had taken the bait so beautifully that even she was surprised. It had been two days since she left and the pack was relatively calm now. To her knowledge, Ariana had never gotten to speak with Breeana before she left.Combined with the fact that the Elder council hadn't disclosed exactly where they were sending her to, there was no way for them to resolve their misunderstanding.Ariana, the only person who could have disclosed her identity was gone and now, now she would play as she liked."Yes, my identity is secure.""Then we will take care of this investigator."Allen? No wa
Resisting The Mate Bond 70
The last thing anyone should talk about right after sex was pregnancy. Even if you and your partner were mated till death parted you. Not only was it a mood dampener but there were so many ways to take it. To read into it. It just wasn't said. Yet that was what had just fallen out of Breeana's lips.She felt Reece tense beneath her and for a second she worried.Did she want to have Reece's child?Hell yeah. Just thinking of a child that would share both of their characters and be a symbol of all they shared was more than enough to bring tears to Breeana's eyes. But she had to be pragmatic about this. She couldn't let her emotions rule her judgment.Deciding to remove children from their current future plans should have been a mutual decision from both parties but she had gone ahead to do it because of all the recent circumstances.Looking at Sarah, she had come to the realization that no matter how much the dream of being a mother mattered to her, this was the wrong time for it. She w

Reece's suit pinched and he sipped at his wine.He was at Enzo's, the spot he and Breeana had chosen for their dinner and ironically the same spot that Ariana and Breeana had gotten shot at. It was a solid fine dining place with the added plus of proximity to the pack. Plus it had private tables for couples.Reece had called her immediately after he was done with his work for the day and she'd told him that she would meet up with him.Apparently, the tea party had taken longer than anticipated -whatever that meant- so she still had to go to the hospital with her mom.Reece hadn't even known Martha Connor was ill and he was supposedly a part of the family. When he'd volunteered to tag along, Breeana declined. She said her mother hadn't gotten around to forgiving him about the whole Ariana situation especially now that she was gone.Besides, the diagnosis wasn't even out yet, she'd said, so it could be something minor and he would have troubled himself for nothing.That was two hours an

"The Silverwolf pack is behind the rogue attacks?"Reece could never have seen this coming. While Rita had always been outspoken and more than a little bit rude, he would never have thought she and Gilbert would orchestrate something like this."I am afraid so, Alpha." Allen bowed.He was being so formal because he was before the council. He would need to talk to him alone. And find out how his mission had treated him. But this questioning was a priority that could not be overlooked."We must take swift action, Alpha." Elder Elvis, ever the advocate of violence and extreme action, spoke.Reece was seriously tired of hearing that man's voice at this point."Which we will do after ascertaining all the details. Not a moment before. We can not just run off and make war with a reputable werewolf pack, who has bad blood with rogues.""Quite right, Alpha. Gamma Allen, surely you did not just come with words to sway us. You brought evidence to back up these claims, right?" Elder Asher said, l

Breeana couldn't believe that Javier was here. He should have been in the hospital in Spain saving lives not among the envoys sent to her pack to ascertain if Reece was lying or not.She suddenly realized that in the months since she had left Spain, she had totally forgotten about calling him to confirm that she had arrived safely or even texting him.It could have been because she had lost her luggage on the way back due to the call of the mate bond or because of the fact that he had just dropped out of her mind the moment she had seen Reece.To think that once she had thought that maybe, just maybe she could have a life with him after the bond between her and Reece was severed. Now she knew there had been no chance in hell of that happening and that she had been deceiving herself.Breeana stood frozen as the envoys approached. She noticed Javier look at her, his eyes widening ever so slightly in surprise. She saw him notice her hand in Reece's and their complementary dressing.It fe

Rhea heard her mother curse the Mountain Coast pack first in a slew of Spanish, then French, then finally English."That fat faced slut is behind this I can tell. When Reece brought her to the meeting, I could tell she was trouble. How dare they accuse us of consorting with rogues? The Silverwolf of all packs!"It was poor language for Luna Rita of the Silverwolf pack but then again the circumstances weren't the best either.Rhea knew what was coming next - her mother was like a broken record these days. The side comments about how perhaps if she had married into the Swift Wind pack, one of the strongest and most defensible packs, like her mother had wanted, none of this would have happened.Rhea tucked her deep burgundy hair behind her ear as her mind wandered. As for the first time in days, she considered the fact that her mother was right as she felt an unsettling feeling wash over her.Her mother was bothered about the blow their name would take for being associated with such a sc

Reece had been in the meeting for hours. At this rate, he would be late for the family dinner with Zinora's family.The envoys had first done a survey of the pack - whatever that meant, it wasn't like they explained their methods to him - and now they had been grilling him and the council on the smallest details of the attack and their investigation means.The only bright side about this was the fact that the elders were being grilled alongside him. He especially enjoyed seeing Elder Elvis scramble to answer Harry's rapid-fire questions.Javier sat somewhat quietly but his eyes seemed to catalogue everything that was being said and done in the council room.Truth be told, Reece wasn't jealous of him. He had no reason to be. Breeana was his mate and stayed in his bed. He almost smiled at the memory of the time they had spent together.However, he couldn't deny the urge to mark her so that Javier knew to keep his feelings to himself. She was his and his alone.It had felt so primal taki
