The Alpha's Return Took me by surprise
Arabella’s POVI couldn't believe it. Susie had always been open about dating men and women, but this took me by surprise. One of my best friends, someone I considered a sister, was mated to my cousin. It should have been a happy thing, so Susie’s reaction confused me.As Susie left Trudy's room, the look of devastation on her face was unmistakable. I wanted to comfort her, but I didn’t know how. I didn’t even know Trudy liked women. We’d always been open and honest with each other, but relationships she always kept to herself.Trying to break the silence, I began to speak. "I'm going to talk to her, she's just...""Arabella, please don't," Trudy interrupted. "She doesn't want me. If she did, she would have noticed me weeks ago." Trudy's words hung heavy in the air, revealing a deep sense of hurt and rejection.Having spent the afternoon with Trudy, exhaustion eventually crept in and so Leo, wheeled me back to my room. However, upon our arrival, we were met by Mara who handed me my di
The Alpha's Return You’re stronger than you give yourself credit for
Leo’s POVBeing back at Spring Lake without Susie was more challenging than I had anticipated. I understood her need to stay with Trudy, to help her mate heal, but that didn't make missing her any less significant.Arabella was back in her office, burying herself in her work. I admired her dedication, but I couldn't shake off the worry that gnawed at me. I feared she might overwork herself, potentially causing distress to the baby. So, as her mate and co-Alpha, I took over most of the face to face meetings.Every time I passed by her office, I would pause, listening for any signs of distress. Each time she skipped a meal or worked late into the night, my worry would intensify. I found myself constantly checking on her, reminding her to take breaks and eat properly. I would even sink to the level of hiding her office keys.I knew Arabella was strong and capable, but I also understood the toll that stress could take on both her and the baby. My attempts to get her to slow down were met
The Alpha's Return It went well
Arabella’s POVUnlike the first time, as the doctor conducted the ultrasound, my eyes were glued to the screen. Leo had expressed his desire for us to have a gender reveal, especially since I’d decided to postpone the wedding. After all, what bride wants to be pregnant on their wedding day? Anyway, I knew I had to respect his wishes, but the excitement was hard to ignore, so, I kept hoping for a glimpse that might reveal our baby's gender.When Leo asked the doctor to write down the baby's gender and seal it in an envelope, I held my breath. The envelope felt like a treasure chest, holding a secret that would define our lives in the months to come. It was both exciting and nerve-wracking, knowing that the answer was within our reach, yet not being allowed to open and read it.As we left the doctor's office, I held onto the envelope as if it was the most important thing in the world. And in a way, it was. It represented a part of our baby's identity, a secret that was ‘unfortunately’ w
The Alpha's Return I’ve been where you are
Arabella’s POVJust as I had finished dealing with all the paperwork left over from my time at Trudy's Pack, I prepared to leave the office. However, Leo's sudden arrival stopped me in my tracks. His face was clouded with anger; he was clearly upset about something.“Anything happen today that you’d like to tell me?” He asked, his arms crossed over his chest."I've dealt with it for now, Leo," I reassured him, knowing exactly what he was talking about. "It's being handled.""Arabella," he said, his tone stern, "Being your mate is one thing, but as co-Alpha, I should have been informed about such a serious altercation. Especially one that ends with you nearly falling over!”I could see his point, but in the heat of the moment, informing Leo had slipped my mind."I be know, and I apologise," I replied, holding Leo's gaze. "Kate is implementing extra precautions for the future. If they don't work, and if the boy's attitude doesn't improve, I've informed his mother that he'll be made rogu
The Alpha's Return We’re going to help her
Leo’s POVAs the time approached for the boy to leave, I knew I had to address the situation, I had to speak up. Remaining silent would be a betrayal of everything I stood for. I couldn't just stand by and ignore the pain and suffering I had learned about. No real man could.With a deep breath, I called Mrs. Gance into the office and asked the boy to wait outside. As she entered, I knew this conversation wouldn't be easy. But it was necessary. I needed to address the boy's situation head-on, to offer help and guidance in any way I could.As Mrs. Gance took a seat, her eyes briefly flickering towards the window where her son was playing. She asked in a concerned tone, "What has he done now?"I reassured her that although her son had a rough start, we had made good progress during the day. I mentioned that her son had agreed to return for further sessions tomorrow, hoping to ease some of her worry.Then, taking a deep breath, I broached the more serious topic. "Mrs. Gance, your son conf
The Alpha's Return Where is your husband?
Arabella’s POVAfter finally drifting off, I found myself lost in a dream about the day I'd hold our baby in my arms. An overwhelming sense of love and joy washed over me, a feeling too profound to put into words. But the shrill ring of the phone on the bedside table jolted me back to reality.Leo's voice, thick with sleep, answered the call. "What? Where?" His words were punctuated by a pause, followed by a feral growl that sent a chill down my spine. He slammed the phone back onto the bedside with a force that echoed his frustration."What's going on?" I asked, sitting up and rubbing the sleep from my eyes. A glance at my phone told me it was only 3 am."Joel's in the hospital," Leo said, his words cutting through the fog of sleep. He was already bending down to grab his jogging bottoms.Fear gripped my heart, but I had to ask. "What happened to him?""I don't know," Leo admitted, his face taut with worry. "His mother left him there, and no one knows where she is or what happened to
The Alpha's Return You had one job
Leo’s POV "Is that a threat, Leo?" He attempted to taunt, skirting around the use of my title to feign superiority.I could only respond with a smirk. There would be no escape for him this time, no throwing around his wealth to buy his way out of trouble. He was going to face the consequences of his actions, like a man should, for the first time in his pitiful existence.I took a small, calculated step towards him, but before he could blink, I was towering over him, pushing him back against the wall. He made a vain attempt to conceal his fear, but it was leaking out of him like a putrid stench.Shadow, stirred with excitement as I began to partially shift. Mr. Gance however, didn’t. His eyes bulged as he witnessed my arm morphing from human to Lycan. As my claws extended, I wasted no time in seizing his neck, hoisting him up against the wall until his feet were left dangling in the air.Bringing my face closer to his, I sneered, "Are you frightened now?"His breaths turned labored un
The Alpha's Return Is he ok?
Arabella’s POVSitting beside Joel, my mind raced with thoughts that made my toes curl. What was Leo going to do? What if he himself was hurt in the process? Torture had never bothered me, but now that I was pregnant, the mere thought made me want to hurl."Sorry, Alpha, I was wondering if I can get you anything?" The nurse's voice snapped me back to reality."Hm? Sorry, erm… tea please. Oh sorry decaf please," I responded, my mind still preoccupied with worries."Of course," the nurse smiled before turning and walking away.As I settled back into my seat, I heard footsteps approaching and hoped it would be Leo. However, it wasn't him."I know I shouldn’t… but I had to see him," she said, standing there in front of me, igniting a fire within me. I was on the verge of shouting, but then I caught a whiff of a familiar scent."He made you rogue, didn’t he," I all but chuckled, my voice laced with anger. "What about your mate?" I asked through gritted teeth.“Your mate took him. Dragged h
