"Then you have to leave tonight!" I say to Sandra with urgency, and she gives me a baffled look."What? Why?" She asks in a croaked voice."The sooner, the better. I'll give you all the directions, and by tomorrow you'll be able to get to Oliver. I want Oliver to come here to the pack." She widens her eyes at the last statement."Yes. And I know just when. You've heard of the feast that Harry is throwing in my honor, right?" I ask her, and she nods her head."That'll be the perfect opportunity for Oliver to come to the pack." I quip, and she makes a click sound with her tongue as she puts on her thinking face."The place would be rowdy, and the guards would be occupied. It's a perfect, foolproof plan." I add."I understand." She says and I wear the largest smile."You said something about leaving tonight..."***I've never been this anxious in my entire life. After I gave Sandra directions to the human world and she left, I've been feeling so anxious.What if something happens? What i
The Alpha’s Second Mate 46| All My Cards Are Set.
OLIVERTo say I was skeptical was an understatement when I saw a note on my window last night telling me to meet up at a diner because they had information about Isla.My Isla...She's been missing for about three weeks, and it's been hell without her. I felt like my life had lost all meaning without her.Only six years that I got to truly spend with her, and I can't manage to stay away for long. Keeping the kids under control was another problem.I had to tell them a lie. I couldn't just blatantly tell three six-year-olds that their mother was kidnapped and that the police had no clue where she was. It would have broken their hearts.So I told them she had to travel overseas for impromptu work-related things. I told them that some kids were sick and only their mother could help them.They felt bad that she didn't inform them before she was going, and I had to tell them that she couldn't have because everything happened out of the blue.Though Dylan still seems suspicious. The boy is

ISLA"So, tell me," I say in a relaxed tone to Sandra, and she turns to me."Tell you what?" She tinges her brows."How did he look? How did he sound? Does he look well-fed? Did he meet you with anyone?" I ask all in one breath, and she just stares at me."What? Tell me..." I whine, pouting, and she huffs a sigh, rolling her eyes."Okayyy. He looked alright. He sounded worried, curious, angry, and annoyed, of course, and his voice was quite deep if I can recall properly.""Well fed might be a stretch. But he looked okay. I don't know how he was before, so I won't be able to make a comparison. But he's actually a sight for sore eyes." I smile as she speaks."You didn't tell me that his eyes brighten up whenever your name is mentioned." She bumps shoulders with me, and I blush."They do, don't they?" I say, totally love struck."I can tell that he really likes you. Loves you even. He said, and I quote, 'I'd do anything for Isla.’ Isn't that just romantic?" She teases me, and I giggle li
The Alpha’s Second Mate 48| Stick Figure.
Days have passed, and the feast is happening tomorrow night. To say that I'm excited for it would be an understatement.I'm not excited for the feast on its own, but for what is going to go down in it. I'm excited to finally see Oliver after what seems like months.Would he miss me? Of course he would; he's Oliver.I've been thinking of different scenarios in my head constantly. Would he like my dress? Would he kiss me? Would he go along with my plan?There are just so many things that could happen, and I can't wait for them to happen.But for the present, I feel like taking a break. So instead of spending my entire day in my room wallowing in loneliness and hating Harry, I've decided to visit the kids again.Yes, yes. I'm going to visit Denise and her fun class with Sandra accompanying me again.She was so on board with me when I told her I wanted to go there again. I guess that's a good thing, right?"Do you think I'm pushing it?" I ask Sandra as we walk past the courtyard. She scru
The Alpha’s Second Mate 49| Save Them?
"What is going on here?" Harry's voice booms all over the area, and everyone disbands, going back to where they were before.Even the children are scared of Harry. Damn.I'm the only one still standing where I originally stood. Harry eyes me, and I narrow my eyes to slits as I stare right back at him.His eyes casually stroll to Simon, and the kid breaks a sweat as he immediately turns over his paper, hiding the drawing of Harry.Unfortunately, this makes Harry suspicious, as he starts strolling over to where I'm standing.Dang it!The kid has gone still, and the surrounding air becomes tense. I swear only a knife could cut through the increasing tension in the air.Once Harry gets to us, he crouches down to Simon's level."Good day, Alpha," the boy greets him in a cautious and frightened tone.Harry ignores the boy's greeting, and his eyes move to his paper. From this side, it's obvious there's something on the other side of the paper.Harry then turns back to the boy with an icy loo
The Alpha’s Second Mate 50| Matching Outfits.
ISLAThe day is finally here. What I've been looking forward to all week. I'll finally get to see Oliver today after such a long time. I just can't wait.As I put on my dress, a sense of pride washes through me. My black and gold dress is the perfect look for me, with little sequins running down the length from my knees.The top of the dress is sheer and has a heart-shaped neckline. Then there are shimmering gold sparkles all over the dress. I pair it with black heels, and I wear my hair down, leaving it in its natural wavy nature.My makeup is light, but my lips draw attention because of the dark wine-colored lipstick worn on them. I don't bother with jewelry; I already look eye-catching.Sandra isn't with me because she herself is getting ready for the feast; yes, she got an invitation. Which is a smart move on Harry's part. He clearly knows that without her around, I wouldn't even bother leaving my room.As I walk out of my room and over to the ballroom, where the feast is taking p
The Alpha’s Second Mate 51| A Mistake.
This is bad. This is bad. This is beyond bad.How much did Harry hear? I mean, he couldn't have heard that munch, right? And we didn't even say anything awfully descriptive. That's good. I'd be able to change the context of everything if he asked. "What are you doing here? I mean, next to us, here here." I internally face-palmed myself for sounding so guilty and suspicious.Harry eyes me warily for a few seconds, then heaves a sigh. "I wanted to ask you to dance with me." He clears his throat, and my face scrunches up in confusion as I veer back."What?" My tone is sharp and precise."You heard what I said." His voice drips arrogance and impatience, causing me to frown and fold my arms."Well, I don't want to dance with you." I huff, and his nose flares up."Why not?" He growls, and I'm tempted to growl right back at him.Who does he think he is? Coming over here to command me to dance with him. Harry is highly delusional; I can see that now."I don't dance with asshole alphas." I ja
The Alpha’s Second Mate 52| Touch Me.
"Isla..." The figure says it, and my heart melts. I'd be able to recognize that voice anywhere."O-Oliver," my voice breaks as I speak. He walks closer to me, and I'm able to make out his features.As he walks towards me, my legs do the same for him. Once we get to each other, he wraps me in a hug, and I lose myself in him."I missed you so much." I murmur as I inhale his scent."I've missed you more, my love." My heart bursts, and we stay in that position for a while.I hold him, and he holds me, like we're the only ones that matter. Because we are. I see him, he sees me, and we're together now.I don't know when I start to sniffle, and Oliver disentangles from me."My love, please don't cry," he pleads with me in a soft voice as he uses his thumb to wipe the tear stain on my cheeks."I just missed you. I missed you so much." I say as it finally sinks down into me.No matter how I've been holding myself up ever since I came, I really missed my family. And seeing Oliver here, a lot of
