ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 41DAMIANToday was just like every other day. I had already planned out what I would do, sort of my routine though, but today, I wanted to accomplish more.So first, I decided I would do my job in the office, go through all the files I hadn’t yet worked on, check contracts that was pending, look for new contracts and try to renew existing ones. The probability of renewing them was high, but there was much to discuss first. The most important thing right now was to build more alliances and with the event coming I needed to seek more cooperation with other packs For a small, growing pack like mine, I really needed to build more alliances. It was very important.I had hardly sat down to begin my work when I heard a knock on the door. I turned my focus to the entrance and watched the door open to reveal Aiden.“Why am I not surprised to see you?” I said, reverting my gaze to my laptop. Aiden had become a regular visitor now and if you didn’t know him, you wo
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 42TAMARA I never imagined it would feel this way. Heck, I didn’t even know what to imagine because I have never felt it before, but it was definitely more than I could have imagined. This feeling was surreal, intoxicating and consuming. My senses were drowned in his gaze and my legs felt like mush.Did he feel it too or was it just me?Then I felt his blue eyes on me, locked on mine. They were so beautiful, I had never seen anything like it. My heart leaped as I heard him say the words that echoed in my head too.“Mine”I had finally found him. My mate, and he was all mine.He moved closer to me and his addictive scent filled my nostrils and pierced my heart. As he got closer, he reached for my hand and held it in his, sending sparks through my entire being. It was later we realized that we had become the center of attention. We looked around when we were finally able to break free of the spell than was each other’s eyes and realized that everyone was lo
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 43TAMARA I realized now why Athena was so giddy when she saw me and my mate. He was Damian, her brother. I hadn’t realized that at the time because I was lost in the moment. But now I understood how happy Athena must have been for her brother. She was probably worried too that he wouldn’t find his mate. That made two of us.I was determined to do it today, as soon as possible. I had to break up with my boyfriend so I could be with my mate. I couldn’t wait any longer. I had to convince my father too, this will definitely come as a shock to him, that my mate was the alpha of a pack that lived so far away from ours. Well, I had to act fast, the sooner the better.I breathed in relief when I saw Athena. Damian has led me to the receiving room and so many strange faces stared back at me, making me nervous. At least I knew Athena and Brenda, even if I had just met them today, their presence comforted me.“They’re here to meet you.” Damian whispered in my ear a
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 44ATHENA Tamara’s stuff was still at her boyfriend’s house so the plan was to drop her off at his house, get her things and go back to her territory since her father was asking her to return home immediately. And because I needed to return to my territory after all this, I would also drive her to the airport since it was on the way back.I didn’t know if I was doing the right thing by going there with her. It wasn’t logical but at the same time, it was, but I knew I couldn’t back out though, I had already given her my word that I would help her. Accompanying her was the best way to do that. What was taking them so long though? I had been waiting outside in the car for them to come out of the pack house. I was getting tired of sitting so close to this male beside me“I don’t see why you’re here.” I said to Aiden who was seated comfortably beside me. My eyes never left the house in front of me. I was waiting to see Tamara’s figure heading out.It really w
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 45ATHENA I watched Tamara from the corner of my eyes as I drove. She really was confused, not because she still wanted to be with her boyfriend but because she really wanted to get out of that relationship quickly, but getting out was hard, for Liam, it would be.I tried to focus my attention back on the road. I couldn’t help but think though, if Liam was a werewolf, and his entire family was too, not that it would make it right, it would have been a lot easier to break things off. They’d understand what it was like to be mated with someone and would also understand Tamara’s sudden decision to end things with Liam. Since they weren’t, it was really frustrating.My gaze shifted to the rear view mirror when I noticed a car’s flashing brake light. It was Aiden and Damian’s car coming behind us. I understood what that light meant and smiled.“We need to change our seating arrangements Tamara. My boyfriend can’t hold out any longer. He can’t be away from me fo
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 46AIDENThe day went by in a flash. It wasn’t because the day was short, I started early enough, but there was so much to do and so little time. My duties were becoming heavier and I started to get busier. It hurt me that I could only spend little time with Athena now, but I made up for it with video calls. It wasn’t enough, at least I couldn’t compare it to being with her physically, holding her and feeling the sparks between us, but it’d have to do.“Aren’t you leaving to soon?” Damian asked as I snuck out of Athena’s room at the break of dawn. I placed a hand across my mouth signaling him to be quieter, I didn’t want to disturb her sleep. “You arrived when she had already gone to bed.” He finished.He was right, I came in around midnight when she was already asleep. I had wanted to talk to her and tell her how my day had been, but she was sleeping so peacefully, I found joy just watching her sleep. So I didn’t wake her. And yet four hours later, I was u
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 47ATHENA Tamara and I entered the pack house and immediately, Damian walked up to his mate and held her by the hand, leading her to the guests that were already looking at her curiously.“Let me introduce you to my mate and the future Luna of this pack, Tamara.” Damian said to alpha sky, with Tamara’s hands locked in his and I Of course was standing nicely beside them.Alpha sky looked at Tamara, obvious surprise on his face. Apparently, a lot of people had given up on Damian ever finding a mate. He took her hand gently in his and planted a kiss on the Back of her hand, bowing slightly as was the common greeting for high ranking females. “It’s an honor to meet you, Luna Tamara ” He saidTamara smiled back at him, impressed by his impeccable manners. She returned the bow and offered the same compliment. “Its an honor to meet you too alpha sky, surely.”She turned to look at me, her expression asking if she was doing well. I nodded encouragingly at her.“H
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 48ATHENA I tried to focus on my food, but it seemed to lack its usual taste. No, Sky didn’t make me uncomfortable, he was pretty nice, but he was also stubborn, just like a typical alpha would be.I had told him that I had a boyfriend. I told him about Aiden, but that didn’t change anything. He said it was unofficial because we hadn’t marked each other yet, so he still had a chance. I wished I could tell him how hopeless the situation was. He had no chance at all because I already had a mate, and I loved my mate even if I didn’t want to admit it.I grunted inwardly. Why were the males around me so persistent?“Do you like beef stew?” He asked me.I looked up from my plate and saw him lift up the beef stew pot and place it next to me. I was stunned. Alpha Sky wasn’t the type to show such open devotion to someone. Where had all his ego gone?I looked around me and saw similar expressions on the faces of the others at the table.“It’s okay, I can get it mys
CHAPTER 87ATHENA I stared at the number of wolves I saw, their teeming number frightening me. How long did it take for Ursula to build an army like this? So this was her plan after all, to gather wolves that had abandoned their packs or been exiled for an offence and take over other territories."Even with this number, she can't defeat the other wolf packs and the witches.""She can, if she wields the stone of Divinity. She'd be unstoppable. Besides, she has one thing to her advantage, no one will see this coming. You didn't either,you just thought your friend was going to try to kill you again and take your place. You didn't expect this did you?"She was right. No one knew what was looming. They would be taken by surprise and with Ursula's power, they would win this war."What about the witches? They can help out too right? She would definitely go after then to take her revenge for being abandoned. Surely they'll help ur.""Ursula has been possessed by an ancient powerful witch, I'
CHAPTER 86AIDENThe room was lit up with streaks of sunlight seeping through the window pane. The sounds of birds chirping happily seemed to calm me and a look through the window showed clear,blue skies. A really lovely morning.How long had I been asleep for? I had no Idea when I has last had such blissful sleep ever since I became Alpha. There was always one thing or another to do and I ended up having no time for myself.I did always have time for my mate though. I was never too tired to see her beautiful face and make love to her all night.Speaking of which, why wasn't she by my side this morning? The day would have been better if I had woken up next to her."Hey, you're up." A voice spoke from the entrance. She peeked through an opening she made at the door and walked in with a smile as she saw me sitting up."Hey." I replied, stretching out my hand for her to come over."It's morning already. I can't come back to bed.""Just for a few minutes Greta. It's such a beautiful morni
CHAPTER 85ATHENAThe drive back to Night Walker Pack was a silent one. Everyone seemed to be lost in their thoughts. What the clan leader revealed was weighty and none of us seemed to have wrapped our heads around it."So, this makes things pretty complicated. I doubt if Greta even knows she's being used. Ursula or Khalene or whoever she is doesn't really care about her desires. She just wants to have her way and gain control of all beings. We need to talk to Greta and tell her everything." I said, breaking the silence."Are you sure she doesn't know all this? She has harbored these plans in her head for years and is finally going through with it. She has betrayed you already and you still want to save her?""We were really close growing up. What if this is the only chance I'll get to save her too? She's just misguided and focused on the wrong thing. Has she even considered the possibility that you're not her mate when she eventually shifts?""I think she really believes Alpha Aiden
CHAPTER 84ATHENAI remembered it suddenly like I hadn't forgotten. When I had died,my body had been taken by someone and placed on someplace that looked like an altar. Who could have taken me there and why? Greta was looking for me then, it seemed she didn't know who could have taken my body. Was it Ursula?Aiden stared at me,waiting for a response. He must have noticed my reaction."I think I've been there before.""When was that? How did you get there?" My father asked."My body was taken and laid there by someone but I have no idea who had brought me there.""Your body? What do you mean by that?"Oh, that's right. He didn't yet know about my death and coming back to life."I'll explain later father. For now, we need to find our way to the realms. If the witches weren't in support of ursula's plans and locked her up, they might still be looking for her now. They might know how to stop her. We need to get there, and fast.""I can help." Karah said showing up at the door and startlin
CHAPTER 83AIDENMy mind was clouded with so many thoughts. Guilt,pain, anger, frustration, all of these emotions gnawed at my heart and nothing I did calmed me down.Did all of that really happen? Did I accuse my mate whom I loved so dearly of something so terrible? How on earth coukd I have done that?I didn't want to believe it, I couldn't wrap my head around it and I wished it was something I could dismiss as a mere dream. But the pain in her eyes had been real, the way she trembled as she remembered it and talked about it. She barely stopped herself from crying as she talked, the pain was choking her and the guilt for having caused that pain was choking the life out of me.I stood up from my desk and paced the room. Her behaviour towards me from that night began to make sense. If course I would have acted that way if I was In her shoes. She came back only to be faced with the same fate again, with the same man who hurt her,who betrayed her. How could I have done that?The glass I
CHAPTER 82GRETA.I had no idea where I was. The last thing I remember was going to bed. I had left the pack house a few hours ago after that huge mistake I made and now I was staying at a motel with the humans. It was the only place I could hide because I knew they wouldn't come looking for me here. It was against the rules to shift in front of non wolves and with the countless different human smells, it would be difficult to sniff me out. I was safe for now.But how did I get here? When did I leave my bed? And where exactly was i now?"Hello!" I called out into the darkness, but the emptiness only echoed my call back to me.The room was dark and the only streak of light that entered it came from a small window , so small that air barely passed through it."Hello!" I called out again,louder this time."Luna." A voice echoed back. There was something about this voice. It was so raspy and seemed to have been crafted with age, but at the same time, it was intimidating, so much so that i
CHAPTER 81TWENTY-TWO YEARS AGOTHE REALMS.URSULA"Xanthe! Xanthe! Listen to me. You're making a mistake." But he kept walking like he hadn't heard me, pulling me along."Let go of me!" I yelled, wriggling my hands to loosen his grip on my wrist, but he held on tight, my struggles not doing anything to change his mind."You're hurting me xanthe!" I screamed, and whimpered in pain. It was the only thing that could stop him. He could never bear to see me hurt. He let go of my hand slowly and stepped away from me.I held on to my wrist and rubbed on it to soothe the pain and allow the blood to flow through again."The council are meeting because of you,Ursula. What you did was an abomination! How could you try to mess with the balance of things as the gods have made them?""The gods? If that is the way the gods think then I dare say they are a partial bunch!""Don't you dare say those blasphemous words!""I do not blaspheme, surely I have every right to voice out my thoughts. I am tired
CHAPTER 80AIDEN Why didn’t I see it? Why hadn’t I read the signs all this while? I would have been able to do something about it before it got to this point.I should have known when Athena suddenly changed towards Greta. It started a day before her eighteenth birthday. She had been furious, she had yelled at Greta and warned her not to enter her room again, I didn’t understand it then but now I did. Greta never liked her, never truly considered her a friend.“I can’t even imagine what you must be feeling right now.” I said to her, my fingers still wrapped up in hers. “You cared about her once, loved her even. Why did she choose to betray you?”Her eyes darted away from mine. They were glassy and it was obvious she was trying to fight back tears.“I have no idea what has gotten into her. Our friendship should have meant more to her, at least it meant a lot to me.”She still sat on my laps after we ended the phone call with her brother. I caressed the back of her hand, the questions
CHAPTER 79ATHENAIt was true what Trisha said. The rumour has eaten deep into everyone's heart and it was on everyone's lips.How did she manage to spread these stories in so little time? The story had gone beyond the border. The people now knew about Greta.Suddenly, everyone was curious about their Alpha's true mate and the female who separated them. Why would she spread such an absurd story? And how did she Do it? Did she get help from someone else?I doubted it was the warrior's doing. They wouldn't dare to betray their Alpha. So, the only logical explanation was that the rumour did not start at Night Walker pack. It started at Blue Moon pack and spread quickly because I was well known already and the pack was a small one. It would have been easy for that kind of story to circulate and since Night Walker pack was the closest to it, the stories were able to infiltrate it.I sighed and shut my eyes. Tamara had called me that morning too. She had informed me of the rumour when it be
