Resisting The Mate Bond 87
The door to Reece's room opened as Rhea was taking off her clothes in the shower.She had not expected him to come up so soon. It was because Sarah had delayed her. She had wanted to take a shower before but there was no time now. She stepped out of his bathroom naked.She looked around the room. Reece was nowhere to be seen. Had she misheard?"Reece?" She stepped further into the room before she detected the scent of someone behind her. Swirling to face the person, she saw Ivy, a vase in her hand."Nap time."The heavy metal vase came down before she could escape and she fell, a ringing sound in her ears as her vision blurred."Thank you so much for your help."Ivy's voice sounded like it came from underwater and although she wanted to speak up, her tongue didn't remember how to and she fell unconscious.Ivy found her clothes in the bathroom and dressed her up. The only one getting lucky tonight would be her. She took out the liquor she had brought in for this moment and sprinkled it

"You are leaving so soon?"Maybe it was just her imagination but Felicity sounded a little panicked.Was she so nervous about leading the pack alone or was there something she was missing?"I have faith in your capabilities and Goddess willing, I will send someone here to assist you."And check on what exactly you are up to that makes you get nervous so easily.In the car on her way back, all she could think about was Reece. He was probably burying himself in work to avoid missing her. He hadn't picked up her calls the night before and that very morning. But it wasn't a problem. She would simply surprise him.******She couldn't just tell Reece and Allen about Rhea. It would be as though she was having a jealousy fit, which she was but that was beside the point.She'd had to contact Damien to find out about her. The conversation had been stilted and she knew that Damien was coming to conclusions on his own, not that it mattered to get in that moment. She'd just needed to find somethin

When Sarah opened her eyes, she saw Allen.Was she dreaming? It didn't feel like a dream, real yet weak at the edges. The pain in her midsection felt very real. Her midsection.She touched her board flat belly."My baby?"Had she lost– no it was not possible. She would feel it. Something like that would have altered her entire state of being. There was no way her child would have passed on without her feeling it deep in her veins."The baby is fine. They had to do emergency surgery to save both of you. You should be able to hold him in twenty-four hours.""Him?" Her eyes teared up. "It's a boy?"Allen nodded and took her hand pressing a kiss on it."Yeah, and he is stunning just like you."Sarah smiled at him. She would have smiled anyways. She now had a child, a legacy that she would leave behind in this world. A son. She wasn't even sure if she would make a great mom but she would try. She would give it her all. Give any sacrifice needed to ensure that her child had a happy life.Bu

It had been decided that Rhea would be sent to the werewolf council after all her accomplices had been caught and dealt with.Ivy sipped her fruit juice. She would have preferred the bitch dead like the other execution that Breeana had ordered but she would take what she could get.No matter what Rhea said about her, no one would believe her. Even Sarah didn't know what she had done so her secret was safe.Rhea's dreams of leading her parents' pack might have been shattered but the shattering had given way for the rise of hers.Ivy stroked her belly and smiled.*******A Month LaterBreeana kissed the back of Reece's shoulders. He remained unresponsive.She was desperate so she slid her hand over the front of his briefs. He felt so thick, ready and– Reece pushed her hand away."Goddess, Bree, I need to sleep. I have a meeting early tomorrow."Of course, that was the reason.Maybe Breeana would have believed him before. But now she thought of the past month following Rhea's arrest. Sin

Reece's world stopped for a few heartbeats after what Ivy told him.Surely this was a joke, a mistake even that the one night he sought to forget to erase completely would bear fruits like this.No, the Goddess would not be so cruel. He thought of the conversation he'd had with Breeana shortly after she returned from the Silverwolf pack after the incident."I want us to begin trying for a child."He had been so startled that he stopped pulling on his clothes to look at her."What? I thought you wanted to wait."Breeana laughed and stood up from their bed, her nightgown offering tantalizing glimpses of her body."Calm down, Reece. I don't mean we should start right now." She slipped her hands around his shoulders and tipped her head back to meet his gaze, her blue eyes sparkling."I thought about it. Everything is stable enough for a child right now and I want nothing more than to carry your child. To have something that will signify our undying love, loyalty and respect for each other

Breeana got ready feeling nervous but also excited.She was so sure that this time Reece wouldn't be able to resist her. He wouldn't be tired either because Allen had told her that they had little work to do today hence why he could be home with Sarah so early.The nightwear was the most revealing she had ever worn. It was a bold seductive combination of red lace and silk that barely covered her, hinting at and clung to her figure and accentuating her curves.She had their room decorated with romantic themes and candles lighting up the place. It wasn't anything over the top but it was pretty nice if she could say so herself.She had some of the things Sarah had recommended laid out on the bed stand. Some not all. There were some things she didn't think she wouldn't be shy enough to use.Then finally after what seemed like forever, the door opened and Reece stepped in and the door shut behind him.He was handsome. He seemed to become even more so with each day they spent together. His

Reece was expecting the slap but he was still surprised at the force behind it. Breeana's beautiful blue eyes held so much pain, anger and heartbreak at his betrayal."Bree please–"He reached out to her but she ignored him and entered their bathroom slamming the door behind her.He sighed and turned to face Elder Elvis."A duel. Was there a need for so much theatrics?"Elder Elvis turned an unsightly red. "How dare you?! After what you did, do you think you have any leg to stand on? I want–""Lower your voice, Elvis. You want me to marry your daughter. That won't be possible. Breeana will always remain my mate but I will not be unfair to Ivy either." Reece almost shut his eyes as though that would shield him from the painful reality that was now his life."I will take her as my consort and her child shall bear my name."Elder Elvis glared at him still unspecified probably because of how he had spoken to him. He had probably expected Reece to apologise profusely. As though that bother

Breeana couldn't believe what she had overheard Callie talking about.Had she really taken Ivy's side? She couldn't believe how much it hurt her. Even if both of them hadn't been as close as usual she still didn't expect that from her.She didn't knock on their door anymore. She moved back and away.She really hadn't wanted to bring trouble to Sarah's door, her beautiful quiet godson and force Allen's hand to take a side but she no longer had an option. She needed to talk to someone. She felt like she was losing her mind.On her way to Sarah's house, she nearly turned back a couple of times to go back to Callie's house. Maybe she was mistaken. Callie couldn't have said that. Or maybe she did but she meant it in a different context. She would talk to Sarah. Sarah would be objective-minded about this and tell her if she was overthinking this.She was someone who would fully understand her, Breeana thought.It was at this time she keenly felt the absence of her sister, her brother and he

Six Years Later"Can I take you to lunch?"Sarah threw a mean left hook that had Jared struggling to keep his balance. He always favoured his right a little bit too much."No.""Sarah…"She didn't let him continue before releasing a barrage of blows that got his head back into the fight and away from emotional talks.An hour later, she was walking out of the training centre with a bag slung over her shoulder after her shower."Sarah, please wait up."She didn't. She kept walking because she really didn't want to have this conversation. He easily caught up to her though with his long legs."So off to pick up Cole?"Sarah stopped walking."What do you want? Please speak directly."Jared looked at her with hurt brown eyes that eerily reminded her of Allen."I'm trying to have a conversation with you, Sarah.""And I'm trying not to. We train together. That's all.""It doesn't have to be. We can be friends–""I apologise for my mistake. I shall find another trainer." Sarah nodded brusquely

Breeana opened her eyes and nearly screamed.Reece. She had to get to Reece. But what could she do on her own?No, if there was one thing that Anya had thought of her it was that she needed backup. She knew that Reece and the others had a contingency plan where their forces could charge in and rescue them but that plan had relied on the use of their pack links.She didn't even know where the forces were situated. Reece hadn't told her and she hadn't thought to ask."What do I do? What should I do?"She paced the length of her room and then inspiration struck. Of course. How could she have forgotten?Sarah. She would know.*****"We need to get to them now."Sarah had known. She had known that something like this would happen. She had suspected it and now Allen was trapped in a room with Damien she would have felt fear if there was time.Every minute she dawdled was time that Allen couldn't afford especially with the vendetta that Damien had against him."I know where they are camped a

Breeana puked again and her belly contracted in response. She was in the bathroom for another hour or so before she felt strong enough to make her way out.She had woken up with morning sickness and by God, it wasn't what it was hyped up to be.She hadn't even been able to wish Reece goodbye properly and she knew that if the coronation hadn't been that day he would have stayed with her until she felt better.She was barely seated on her bed before she felt a tug on the bond. It wasn't unusual these days for her to feel that way but what made her pause was the fact that Reece was in a closed-door meeting with a cold-blooded murderer. Relaxing herself, she let herself drift until she connected with him and then she was…******"Today we are here for something momentous. Because for the first one in centuries, we will be welcoming in a monarch. Someone who will lead us through these dark abysmal times."Reece sat in his seat exchanging side glances with some of his allies. Adelaide looke

"You are asking me to stay behind?" Breeana glared at Reece, she couldn't believe that mere days ago she had cried and wished desperately that he would wake up.Now she felt the almost stifling urge to suffocate him. Ugh. He was so annoying and so obstinate that it was a marvel that they were still together.Truly."I just want you to stay safe while all this is going on." He leaned in and dropped a kiss on her forehead before touching her belly. "You and our child."Breeans pulled away before she would melt against his concern and sweet words the way she had been melting for the past few days since he woke up.Suffice to say that their fight had been long forgotten almost immediately after he woke up and she kissed him like the weirdo she was.No, Breeana do not think of kisses. She chided herself. Or of all the other things he had done to her and she had done to him."So I'm supposed to just sit in my hands while all the men I care about go off to fight a maniac? Come on, Reece. I'

"You shacked up with a council member?"Breeana looked at Sarah shocked beyond belief.Sarah blushed. "I didn't know that at first."Breeana kept staring at her."And he's Cole's dad?""Yes."When Breeana had come to threaten Sarah to talk to her the last thing she had thought of was this.Sarah had taken one look at her thunderous expression and scented the blood on her before letting her in and telling her what had to be the surprising thing that Breeana had heard since the beginning of this fiasco."Bloody hell, does Allen know about this?" Was she the only one to be blindsided by all this?"I… I haven't gotten around to telling him I guess I just wanted it to go away." Sarah brushed her hair out of her face. "He's the only father that Cole will ever have. The only father I want my child to have. I thought if I ignored it, it would stay that way."Breeana looked at her like she had hit her head on the wall one too many times. Wanted what to go away? For all they knew this was proba

The ambush was quiet, this was their land after all. They knew every nook and cranny of it and more than that they were preternaturally quick and quiet. The hunters on the other hand were loud and clumsy in comparison. They must have thought they would take their pack the way they had taken the others.They were wrong.As the hunters sat around their campfire, discussing their strategy for the upcoming attack, they surrounded them."We enter from the north and–"Allen gave the signal and they attacked.The hunters quickly reached for their weapons, but they were too slow and the werewolves were too fast. They pounced on the hunters, their razor-sharp claws tearing through flesh and bone.The hunters fought back with guns and knives, but they were no match for the werewolves' supernatural strength and agility.The air was filled with the sound of snarling and screaming as the werewolves tore apart their prey. The hunters tried to retreat, but the werewolves were relentless, chasing the

Poison.The word resounded over and over in her head long after Reece had been wheeled into the ER.Someone had poisoned him.She felt a touch on her shoulder. It was Sarah."It's going to be fine, Bree." She comforted her, her voice low and compassionate.Only that was a farce, wasn't it?A terrible suspicion bloomed in her mind as she turned on Sarah. She had been there last night and suddenly Reece got poisoned. She didn't think it was a coincidence.Breeana gripped her by her throat watching her choke."It was you wasn't it?" Breeana squeezed harder, her vision going red. They had granted her mercy and she had gone and done this.Reece was… her mate was…. Just when she had wanted to give their relationship another shot. It was almost too cruel."I swear…" Sarah coughed trying to breathe through the strangling sensation around her throat where Breeana held her immobile."Don't fucking lie to me. You are still in contact with your people, right? You didn't tell Allen everything, did

"We should just execute her and be done with it." Breeana said offhandedly and Reece stifled a laugh."Sure. Any more unreasonable requests you would like to add?"Breeana mock glared at him but a smile peeked through. She was surprised that they could even joke about this. The moment she had seen Ivy she had frozen thinking about the last time they had seen each other.Ivy didn't try to attack them or even struggle. She just turned herself in and allowed herself to be detained. Breeana and Reece had been shocked to hear that she had lost her pregnancy and that she was willing to sell her father and his moles in their pack out in exchange for her freedom."Why did you even bother coming back? You could have just stayed in Europe. There is no way we would have tracked you down." Breeana asked her still suspicious about her return and willingness.Ivy locked gazes with her. "I don't fancy being a fugitive for a murder I didn't even commit and I refuse to be used as a chess piece in my f

Breeana looked at Reece suddenly unable to speak as he walked towards her with the bottle hanging limply from his hand.He reached her.She didn't know what to expect. No, that was wrong. She did know what to expect. It was Reece after all. He would yell at her and question her about why she hid it from him and then he'd–Reece fell on his knees and pressed his ear against her belly, his arms encircling her waist delicately.Breeana froze as he listened for the heartbeat of their child and he reacted in the most peculiar way that she could never have anticipated.He began to cry.Not loudly but softly. Breeana was confused but tried to comfort him in her own way by cradling his head against her belly.And for some minutes they stayed that way. They just stood and it was okay. Strange but okay."I'm sorry, Bree. Sorry that I made you feel the need to hide this from me."Oh, Reece. How could he be so uptight and downright annoying sometimes only to soften up and be nice later? She felt
