The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir FORTY-FOUR
ZadyreOne month away from the family I had no idea I had until when it was late was the biggest he’ll ever.Everyday was filled with me reconstructing the pack, yet losing my mind. I could barely sleep without wishing she chose me.Chose to stay. Damon kept urging me not to give up, to chase her but the fear of her rejecting me like she rejected me that night haunted me.I made sure she was protected, without her knowledge. And the day I had the courage to go see her, I saw them.All four of them, having the time of their lives, and it felt wrong to intervene. They looked like they were better off without me.I slipped into depression, like Damon called it. Everyday got harder.But one thing happened, giving me another chance to be close with them. If not in their lives, around them.It was a bad thing. A dangerous one, but as I kissed Brielle’s forehead and thought of how to bring it up without making it seem like the only reason I had the courage to win her back, I hoped I could fi

BrielleAmelia let out an annoyed sigh as we stepped into my room, and I smirked at her annoyance. Who knew Damon and Amelia would actually be attracted to themselves? The know it all wizard with an air of arrogance and indifference, and the energetic redhead who made heads turn every where she went? I couldn’t have thought it would happen.“Spill.” I commanded as she walked into my closet and brought out my box. She loved to keep her hands when she was bothered. There was more to it. “That blonde idiot is my mate.” She dumped the box onto the bed. I stopped in my steps. I did not see that coming. “Wait, seriously?”She sighed, heading back to my closet to pack in clothes for my trip. I left her to do it because I could see she needed it. “When I called you yesterday and you didn’t pick up the phone, I decided to drive here. And then…” she trailed off, her face flushing. “I saw him.”I sat at the edge of my bed, trying not to smirk at the blush on her face as she tried to hide wh

ZadyreWe got to the resort after hours of being on the road and I immediately headed for Damon as I got down from the car. The ride was smooth and I was glad we didn’t encounter any problems. And no one could see us come to the resort because Damon was able to conceal us as we got here, but I wasn’t at peace.Damon’s eyes met with mine and he gave a short nod. “Nothing at all, Zadyre.”I let out a sigh and ran my fingers through my hair. “Am I just worrying for nothing?”Damon’s gaze followed Brielle’s friend as she walked out of the car and I rose a brow at him. I’ve only seen him like this once. It wasn’t great.“Damon, focus. You can stare at her later when you’ve answered my question and made sure we are safe.”He peeled his gaze off of her and shot me a glare. “I wasn’t staring, asshole. And you aren’t worrying for nothing, but we are safe now. This resort is heavily guarded. We would all be safe here.”His words reassured me and I felt my doubt disappear, although not completel

BrielleZadyre smiled lazily as I wore back my clothes and I rolled my eyes at him, still feeling the warmth of our recent embrace lingering on my skin.Just yesterday I was lonely, and I felt color return, but I feared something was going to destroy the peace we had. He already told me to trust him so I had no reason to doubt, but I grew up fearing every nice moment was going to turn sour and it did most times.I hope today it wouldn’t happen again. I hated being negative, but that was what I was used to. Zadyre noticed a change in my expression and moved towards the edge of the bed. “Brielle what’s wrong?”I shook my head, brushing off the bad vibe I was having, and I moved to place a kiss on his lips. “It’s nothing baby.”He tried deepening the kiss as his hands moved to grope my ass, but I pulled away, chuckling softly. “No, not again, baby.”He groaned, “Why did we let Nara take care of the kids if we can’t do this?” His lips grazed my nipple through the fabric of the clothes I

48Brielle Zadyre sighed in his sleep while I laid on the bed, staring out the balcony, into the woods that I couldn’t stop thinking about. What was this pull? I’ve never been here before, so why did it seem like it was familiar and there was more to it?I slowly wiggled out of Zadyre’s death hold, careful not to wake him up and start a whole new argument about where I was going, although I liked the way the last one ended. We just got together, I didn’t want to chase him away. My feet carried me as fast as they could as I went to the balcony, and I sighed. Was was in there? Why was my wolf, who was always quiet agitated about going in there? Why did this random resort seem like it was much more?“Baby, what are you doing out?” His husky voice met my ears as his hands wrapped around me, and he kissed the back of my ear softly and I melted into his arms.“It’s nothing, Z.”A sexy chuckle left his lips as his fingers thrummed on my stomach. “Z? So I’m Z now? Or this is just a way to

ZadyreLetting out a deep sigh, I studied Brielle’s peaceful tear stained face, and wondered what was going on. This wasn’t just her urges.I doubt if she realized, but she was halfway through turning into her wolf. Her eyes were glowing and her canines and claws were sharp and ready. Her strength was even different and everything unnerved me.What could be wrong? Yesterday shortly after we got to the resort she started acting weird and now, I placed the back of my palm on her skin and sighed at the heat. Damon needs to check on her. I cleaned her up and wore her clothes back, before wearing mine and calling Damon up.He appeared with Amelia, and I briefed them on what happened. What I didn’t expect was for Damon to snort. “You called me up to tell me your girl is super horny and you couldn’t satisfy her?”Amelia rolled her eyes in irritation as she went to sit beside Brielle, hissing as her fingertips touched Brielle’s scalding skin.“She’s really burning up, blonde. It’s not time t

Brielle I was breathing heavily as I ran, my feet hammering into the hard, icy ground. The moonlight danced through the towering trees, illuminating my route with long, sinister shadows. Branches nibbled at my face and arms, and the air was heavy with the odour of wet leaves. That wasn't the worst of it, though. No, the worst was what I was running through- what I was trying to escape. Dead animals. Their eyes wide open, they stared up at me with lifeless eyes as they lay twisted and broken on the forest floor. Even though the scent of decay and blood was overwhelming, I couldn't stop. I couldn’t look. Every step I took, my foot connected with something soft, something that had once been been alive. My stomach twisted into knots as I felt bones crack under my weight. I wanted to scream. To cry out. To stop running, but something in the pit of my stomach would not let me. Something was chasing me. Although it was invisible to me, I could hear its voice- a low growl that sounded as

Brielle“Will you please explain everything that has been going on to me?“ His voice broke the quiet, calm but direct. For a brief minute, I froze, holding onto the coffee pot. I had no desire to repeat this. Not after last night. Taking a deep breath, I turned around and forced a half hearted smile. “It’s nothing, Zadyre. Really.”His eyebrows furrowed, obviously not buying it. "Brelle, you've been tense since yesterday night. Something’s bothering you. Talk to me.”I wiped a palm across my forehead and groaned. I lied, saying "It's just stress," even if some of it was accurate. I was still troubled by the dream, but I wasn't comfortable talking about it. “I’ve been thinking about… Sebastian.” I swallowed hard, trying to focus on something tangible, something less horrifying than the nightmare. “What he might be planning. You are aware of his tendencies- constantly cunning and one step ahead. I get a persistent feeling that something big is coming.”Zadyre’s expression softened slig

DamonThe sounds around me suddenly went silent. I could do no other thing than panic as we walked outside and I set my eyes on Amelia that was in the pool of her own blood. Her hand trembled over her stomach and her dress was soaked with her own blood. My chest tightened and it felt like I was being stabbed over and over again in my heart. For the first time in decades, fear consumed me. Not just fear- terror.Brielle ran to her and started talking to her but I didn’t hear anything, I walked to her and I dropped to my knees beside her, ignoring the roar of the battle continuing behind me.“Amelia!” My voice cracked, raw and desperate. Her lashes fluttered weakly, her breath shallow. Her usually fiery eyes, the ones that taunted and challenged me endlessly, were glassy and unfocused.I pressed my hands to the wound, my fingers slick with her blood. “You’re not leaving me. Do you hear me?” My voice was a growl now, a plea wrapped in steel. I could feel her slipping, her life force dimm
The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir Chapter 98
AmeliaIt was the day of the wedding and we were finally out of captivity. Damon and I had tried to escape but it was futile. Later on, Sebastian had come to our rescue and even if we were weary at first we decided to trust him. The palace was in chaos as everyone prepared for the wedding. Sebastian had told us of his plan already and I was ready for how the day was going to turn out. Maids and guards were going back and forth as they prepare the hall for the wedding, they didn’t want to be on the receiving end of Orlando’s fury. I avoided Damon most of the morning, finding excuses to busy myself with Brielle.But even amidst the turmoil, my thoughts were elsewhere.I was pregnant. I had found out earlier that morning and I hadn’t been able to process things well since then. I hadn’t told anyone- not even said the words out loud to myself. I felt like saying it would make it more real and I wasn’t sure I wanted to accept the truth. I placed a hand over my stomach and let out a shak
The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir Chapter 97
AmeliaThe days at the resort passed in an awkward, suffocating blur. Damon’s rejection echoed in my mind, a relentless loop of words that stung more than I cared to admit. I tried my best to stay out of his way and pretended like the pull of the bond that was dragging me to him was nonexistent. I avoided him as best as I could, but we were staying the same room and tension was thick and suffocating. Every time my eyes fell on him, I would feel my hear ache- it was longing for his love and touch but I knew it was something I couldn’t get- something I would never get. I buried myself in helping Brielle and Zadyre with their problems. It was easier to focus on them than to face my own mess. Brielle had enough to deal with without me adding my drama to the mix, so I kept my distance and my mouth shut.When we returned to the pack, the air felt different. Heavier. Maybe it was just me, carrying the weight of the unspoken bond between Damon and me. Or maybe it was the way the pack still
The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir Chapter 96
DamonThe discussion I had with Zadyre earlier played over and over again in my head as I drove through the road, holding on to the steering wheel tightly. “You know you’re the only I trust and know can do this, Damon,” he had said in a very serious tone. “The border spell will keep us safe, but it has to be precise. If it falters, Sebastian and his allies could find us before we’re ready.”“I know it’s an easy task,” I had replied him as I shrugged it off. But Zadyre’s expression had told me this wasn’t like the other times.“And,” he continued, glancing at Brielle and the kids in the distance, “I need you to keep Amelia in line. She can be of help.”I’d raised an eyebrow at that. “Of help? Sounds like a handful.”“Just take her with you,” Zadyre muttered, his gaze darkening. “She’s loyal and she can keep an eye on you. She can even help you.”Now, as Amelia sat in the passenger seat beside me, her arms crossed and her glare cutting through the silence, I wondered if Zadyre had unde
The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir Chapter 95
A sneak peak to Damon’s point of view of when he first met AmeliaDamon’s POVThe drive back to Brielle’s location was tense, filled with an unspoken urgency. Zadyre was silent in the passenger seat, his gaze fixed on the horizon. He hadn’t said much since I convinced him to come back and get her. Convincing him hadn’t been easy; his stubbornness was unmatched, and his pride even more so. But I couldn’t let him leave her behind.“She’s your mate, Zadyre,” I’d told him earlier, my tone sharp. “You can’t just abandon her. You’ve been through hell, and so has she. The least you can do is protect her.”He’d gritted his teeth, jaw tight, before muttering something about her safety being more important than his presence. But I knew better. Their bond was very strong and undeniable, no matter how much he tried to pretend he wasn’t drawn towards her or needed her. As we got closer to the house where Brielle was supposedly at, I could feel Zadyre’s body tensing up. It was radiating off him li
The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir Chapter 94
The End… Or the Beginning? BrielleDays have passed and everything had for back to the way they always were. It was morning and after breakfast, we decided to take the kids outside. The pack lands were now more beautiful after we had gotten rid of every evil that plagued it. There trees were lush, the rivers clear, the people happy and the air was filled with the smell of the beautiful and blooming flowers. It was like Mother Nature was happy that we were healing from the past so so she was helping to hasten the process. Nikki and Micah were running in front of us as they chased each other though the garden with their laugh echoing across the beautiful sky. Rachael was walking in front of us too both not as playfully as her brothers, she had always been much calmer and smarter than them. Zadyre and I walked behind them while holding hands and letting the peacefulness of the park and the air wash past us. It felt surreal, this calm after the storm.“You know,” I began, my voice sof
The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir Chapter 93
BrielleImmediately Orlando fell to the ground in the hall and lost his life, I felt a surge of energy burst through from him and enter into me. It felt like something that I didn’t know was missing from my body finally came into place and I felt that wild energy course through me though it was tamer than before. It was overwhelming and terrifying all at once but I soon relaxed my body and the tension left as I welcomed it. My powers. They were back.I gasped as the strength and connection to my wolf rushed through my veins, stronger than ever. It was like breathing again after years of suffocation. It was too late to save devastation as he had breathed his last so I rushed over to Zadyre that was still battered and bloody, his wounds had not healed at all and I could see the life slipping out of him gradually. His breathing was unsteady and shallow and his chest rose and fell but it was faint. “Zadyre!” I cried as I moved closer to him. I didn’t know where to touch him, I didn’t kno
The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir Chapter 92
Sebastian I could feel myself losing a lot of blood and my life slipping away, my body was aching a lot and even breathing was painful. Everything became blurry but I tried so hard to stay awake and alive, I had something to say to Zadyre and I wouldn’t die without telling him what I had in mind. I turned my head to the direction where Zadyre laid motionless with Brielle by his side. His body was battered and covered in blood and regret washed over me. I had done this, how had we gotten here?I let out a shaky breathe as different mentors from the past came flooding into my mind- memories of my anger, my acting out and of me being wicked. I had hated Zadyre and did a lot of bad things to him because I had thought he was the reason we were orphans but I was wrong and I knew the truth now. And as I slowly but surely lost my life, I needed to let him know and I couldn’t die without his forgiveness. Brielle was crying and I could she was torn between staying with Zadyre and coming to c
The Alpha’s Betrayal : Running with his Heir Chapter 91
Brielle“Zadyre!” I called, and he glanced back at me just long enough to understand what I was about to do but Orlando must have noticed that we were silently communicating because when I moved closer to him, he turned his attention away from Zadyre and punched me. “Brielle!” Zadyre yelled but he couldn’t stop Orlando or get to me. The force from Orlando’s punch had me being flown across the room like a rag doll. My body hit the stone wall with a loud thud and I fell to the ground, the stone I had held and watched to use on Orlando had lodged itself against my chest and I had an open would. Every breathe I took felt like I was being stabbed in the lungs over and over again but I couldn’t be weak or just stay there, I had to do something to help Zadyre. My vision started becoming blurry and I tried to sit up but it was hard. I managed to get the stone out of my body and my eyes glanced to the side where Damon and Sebastian were engaged in a serious fight with Lydia. She was a storm
