The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 41 - Damned if you do, and damned if you don't.
AvaThe pain in my grandmother’s eyes was too overwhelming, but I wouldn’t apologize. If she had told me what I was years ago, we probably wouldn’t be in this mess in the first place. I could have made the necessary preparations to avoid Daniel completely.I knew I was being unreasonable, but I couldn’t help it. I wasn’t just fighting for my life, but also for the lives of the people in my pack. From what I could remember of those last moments, even though we outnumbered Blackridge, we were losing.I tried to think back to that awful fight and tried to remember if I had seen Daniel, but I couldn’t. Was he even there? I couldn’t imagine Daniel as the kind of person that would send his people to war without going himself. Then again, if I was completely honest with myself, I didn’t really know Daniel all that well.I was angry at the previous version of myself, and how incredibly stupid I was. If only I had taken better care, I would never have fallen pregnant. Sadly, hindsight is alway
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 42 - The challenge.
DanielAlex and I were at a stand-off with the council and my father trying their very best to stop us, but the challenge was set and accepted, and there was nothing that any of them could do about that. Alex and I had to face-off within the next twenty-four hours or our pack, according to the same laws that forced me to reject Ava, would be without an Alpha.I tried to warn my father many times over the years that some of our laws made absolutely no sense, and this was the first opportunity to show him. All his life, he blindly followed the laws as set out by his ancestors. I kept my eyes on Alex, waiting for him to lower his head, but instead he turned on his heel and stormed out.“That was fun.” Harper sauntered into the conference room after everyone left. I knew she would appear at some point, but I was hoping I wouldn’t have to deal with her now.“I told you to find another mate! If I know Alex, and I know Alex, he knows he is going to lose if he doesn’t cheat, which means he is
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 43 - Fate's cruel hand.
DanielI knew I didn't have much time, and I wasn’t sure how I was going to warn Ava. I should have stayed and warned her when I saw her earlier, but at that stage we didn’t have an agreement yet. I was feeling incredibly frustrated, because I knew if I left now, everyone would know that I was going to warn the Crescents.Everything I have achieved in the past couple of hours would be wasted. I had the strangest feeling of Déjà vu, but something was different. It almost felt as if I was trapped in someone else’s body as I stood in my office looking out of the window.I couldn’t leave. I was a prisoner in my own home, and I couldn’t save the woman I was no longer supposed to love.AvaWhile I was training, it felt as though I was being watched for a moment. I didn’t pay attention, because I knew the border patrol were out there protecting us. After my session, I returned home, finding my grandmother making the arrangements for the pack to pack our home.My grandmother didn’t want me to
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 44 - An accident.
AvaIt was a strange thing to know what was coming, but not know what was happening with Daniel’s pack. We were waiting for them to attack because I remember it happening the same way in my previous life, but it didn’t mean they were actually going to attack.The worst part was the waiting. It was infuriating!DanielI paced back and forth in my office until I received word that Alex’s plane had landed. I couldn’t do a thing until I knew for sure he was there. I knew my father would be with him. He wouldn’t be able to resist taking a look at the woman I was destined to love.As soon as the message came through, I grabbed my phone and called the sheriff from Ava’s town. We had a good relationship because we had to deal with each other once or twice over the years. He didn’t ask too many questions and I told him some of the truth.While I told him about a group of gangsters coming to his town, I realized something. I had probably seen Ava once or twice before, and never realized it. I w
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 45 - A standoff.
AvaWe were in the middle of our meeting, when we got the news that they had arrived in trucks at the airport. They probably knew that we were watching them, and that is why they decided not to use the plane to transport their warriors.We were in a very dangerous situation. There was no full moon which we could use to shift. There was no way we could protect the human town. We also had their Alpha as our prisoner. I knew if anything happened to Daniel, they would blame it on us.“We have to protect the town, and its people. In my previous life they killed everyone. I won’t let that happen again!” I growled at the elder council who were trying to convince me that we were safe in our hiding place. Although all of them lived through their previous life with me, none of them could remember the devastation that Daniel’s pack left behind.In the end, I got them to agree on condition we used Daniel as leverage. Within half an hour, we were making our way into town, and I headed straight for
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 46 - A backflip.
DanielMy father and I were facing off, and once again my pack was left with a choice of having to choose between their current Alpha, and a challenger.“Is this true? Have all of you accepted that you can never love your destined mate? Have you accepted that my father will always be the one who takes away your freedom of choice? Because let me tell you this! If you stand behind him today, you give up your freedom. My father will never let you go.” I could see fear and confusion on some of their faces.“If you decide to stand with me today, you will be claiming back your freedom. There will be no war between werewolves. We will live together as one people…” Before I could finish what was going to be an epic speech, my father interrupted with a loud growl, giving me the opportunity to show our people exactly what I meant.“As you can see for yourselves, he is still trying to control me. Even after I have been your Alpha for a couple of years, my father thinks he is in charge. My brothe
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 47 - That damn Bastet.
AvaAs I left my room, I found them sitting at the small dining room table. From the looks of things, my grandmother had a hand in setting the table, and the silence between them was deafening. The tension in the air was so thick that I had trouble breathing.“What I’m about to say is going to shock the both of you, but since I’ve been through this twice already, I’m in no mood to waste time anymore.” I sat down opposite Daniel, and was grateful that the table was round, and he didn’t take the seat at the head of the table.“Sweetheart, what is all this about? I mean Daniel just wanted to talk to you about going to college…” As I expected, one of them had to try and take control of the situation.“Just stop there.” I breathed deeply to try and control the anger I was feeling. If things were going to be the same, I would be the only one who remembered what happened in the previous lives. I started by explaining that I had been resurrected by the goddess Bastet twice!The look in their
The Alpha and the Ice Princess Chapter 48 - Yes i will.
AvaDaniel had never looked nervous, but the Daniel I greeted at the door, seemed completely out of sorts. My grandmother joined us, as soon as Daniel walked in, and breakfast arrived a couple of minutes later. I had spent most of the night wracking my brain, to find a solution, which meant I was incredibly tired, and really not in the mood for any discussions.Sadly, discussions had to happen if we were going to save everyone that was about to be lost. My grandmother and I were discussing the different options, and it quickly became clear, that she didn’t like my best suggestion.“It’s the only way out that I can see grandma.” I sighed deeply. I had noted that Daniel hadn’t said a word, and I was quickly becoming irritated with him.“Ava. We have been living there for hundreds of years, and they haven’t found us yet. You can’t expect the entire pack to pack up, and leave the territory. Finding a new territory isn’t the same as buying a new house. There’s a lot that had to be taken ca
