The Alpha's True Love Chapter 11 - A memory!
IsabellaI wake up in the early hours of the morning, and I can still smell the scent of his aftershave on the pillow beside me, but he isn’t there. I feel better than I have in a while and I notice that my body isn’t as sore as it has been. After a shower and a clean, new set of clothes, I make my way to the kitchen, where I’m surprised to find Lisa.“Good morning, honey. Sleep well?” She is wearing an apron which I find strangely familiar, and I smell the scent of pancakes and sweet syrup.“Good morning, yes and yourself?” I smile as she gestures for me to take a seat. There is freshly squeezed orange juice, and she places a plate filled with pancakes in front of me as soon as I sit down.“Amazing. It’s wonderful what a good night’s rest can do for the body, mind and spirit.” Lisa beams as she sits down. “Dig in. You need to eat so you can heal.”“It is strange. I feel so much better this morning.” I frown. “Where is Asher?” I see something flash in her eyes before she smiles.“He h

AsherWe couldn’t just storm in. I couldn’t just claim Isabella. At least, not until she had her memory back and could confirm what we already suspect. What I could do was spy on her pack. I could gather the evidence we needed that would back up her story.The plan is to try and spy on her pack in their pack grounds, but we quickly find out that their borders are too far and their pack house is too well hidden. Since we can’t let them figure out what we were up to, we can’t even think about crossing the border.I try to talk to some of the neighbouring packs, but the only information we get is more of what we already know. They are very secretive. There are rumours of abuse, but nobody has concrete proof, and everyone seems to agree that Adam is a prick.After two days of dodging questions and making sure that nobody suspects that Isabella is with us, I finally return home. We don’t have much more than we knew before, which means we will have to depend on Isabella’s memories.The news

IsabellaLisa’s advice the past two days has been to take it one step at a time. Most importantly, she wants me to only think about the flashes when they happen. She believes if I don’t dwell on them too much it might just help me to get through the next one a little easier.For some strange reason, I feel better knowing Asher is back, and when he asks me to go for a walk, excitement kind of takes over. My heart starts to race as we get closer to the door and when we reach the threshold, I stop.It feels as though there is an invisible barrier all of a sudden and if I were to try and cross it, I would somehow be hurt. I look at the floor and then at Asher and I can feel the panic rising from deep inside. It’s too much. It’s too fast. I can’t!“Would you mind if I tried something?” His eyes fill with kindness and I nod. The moment he picks me up bridal style, I’m stunned into silence. He smiles and takes one step, crossing the threshold. “That wasn’t so bad, was it?” He smiles, and I r

AsherPacing back and forth in the library after what Isabella told us, makes me feel like a caged animal. Having to sit there and listen nearly forced my wolf out. Pacing is all I could do at the moment to keep him locked away. I can’t let Isabella see him yet. Not until she has her full memory back.“Son, you need to calm down. Don’t do whatever it is that mind of yours is planning.” My mom looks far too calm for my liking as she sits there blinking at me.“Did we just hear the same thing? Do you understand what they did to her?” I lose grip on my anger in my attempt to keep my wolf in check.“I heard, and it is awful, but running out of here and tearing whoever did this to her apart isn’t going to win her over. It’s not going to make it better. It’s over. It has already happened. All we can do now is to show her a better life.” She’s right. I know she is right, but I still want to tear something limb from limb!“Okay, so what do you suggest that I do?” I sigh and finally sit down b
Last Updated : 2024-11-10The Alpha's True Love Chapter 15 - A flood of memories.
IsabellaI wonder only for a moment if he is talking about the wild animals or actually himself. I have to push the idea to the back of my mind because it is just too ludicrous to think about. I don’t know if I read about fairy tale creatures or if I saw them on television, but I know for a fact that they can’t possibly exist.“I know I’m asking very personal questions, and you really don’t have to answer me, but how do you afford all of this?” I frown noting the slight smile again. He seems to relax again and explains that they have a couple of businesses both right there and in the nearby town that make enough money to support all the people living there.He talks about their green house and the fact that they also grow a lot of their food themselves and I really want to see it all, but just the thought of going outside sends a rush of adrenaline through my veins, and it is as though it activates my memories.I see my own hands this time. I’m busy peeling vegetables when I feel some

IsabellaThe second I open my eyes, everything comes flooding right back, and I take a deep breath to try and calm my mind. I look around my empty room, and remember that Asher and his mom was there. When the dizziness subsides, I slowly get up and take a long hot shower before getting dressed and going to look for Asher. As I half expected, I find them in his office and I can see that they have clearly been fighting.“Hi.” My voice sounds strange for a moment. There are so many facts flooding my mind still that I find it difficult to talk for a moment while Asher rushes to invite me in and his mother’s concerned eyes follow my every move. I sit down and wait for Asher to take his seat before trying to make sense of of everything I remember.“I’m Isabella by the way.” I start with a sheepish smile. As I look into Asher’s eyes, it feels as if he already knew that. I have a feeling that I will soon find out.“Take it slow, sweetheart. You have just been through a lot. I don’t want you t

IsabellaAlthough my flashes tell me that my memory coming back should not be a relief, I still hoped. Sadly, my memory coming back brings me no relief at all. I have been mistreated in the worst possible ways by the people who were meant to love me.When the realization of why suddenly hits me, I look at Asher and then at Lisa and for a moment it feels as if my heart doesn’t just skip a beat, but it stops working. I know what I am, and I know what they are. I’m astonished that I didn’t notice sooner what they were, which only means Asher probably ordered all of his wolves not to shift.“I’ve …” My throat suddenly dries out. He is going to reject me as soon as I say it. I just know it, but I need to tell him. Something inside me just wants to get it over with. “I’ve never shifted. I can’t shift.” I feel the tears burning the back of my eyes, but I can’t look at either of them. I hear Lisa gasp.“Okay, wait a minute. You can’t shift or you won’t. There is a difference. Or maybe you wer

Isabella“I don’t know.” The words are out before I even think about it. I know what he wants to hear. I know what I should do, but my memories are so overwhelming that, suddenly, I’m having trouble trusting the people who have been helping me.“I am not trying to push you into anything, but if you don’t accept me as your mate, I fear that my hands will be tied, and I won’t be able to help you.” His eyes fill with sorrow and it breaks my heart. I don’t know what to do. I don’t know who to trust or how to protect myself. Memories of being abused keep flooding my mind and I stuff my face in my hands feeling completely overwhelmed.“I know you are under a lot of pressure, Isabella, but you have to know that I would never hurt you. Nobody in my pack will ever lift a hand to you.” His hands softly touch mine and when I look him in the eye tears start to roll.“I will accept you.” I take a breath. Any possibility of living under sanctuary was destroyed when my brother claimed that I was kid

The Alpha's True Love Chapter 108 - The end.
BeverlyTWO YEARS LATER, I wake up in the early hours of the morning as a sharp pain shoots through my entire body. Beside me, Matthew jumps up looking startled and completely confused, but I’m in so much pain that I can’t even explain. When it finally lets go, I look at my completely frazzled mate and a giggle escapes between my lips.“The baby’s coming, Matthew.” I say as I get out of bed. The moment I stand upright, a puddle forms underneath me. Matthew looks like a rabbit caught in headlights and I roll my eyes. For such a confident alpha, he sure ain’t looking for it right now, and I take his hand and walk him out of the room.When we reach the stairs, another contraction hits and I have a feeling our pup is going to arrive sooner than anticipated. Matthew’s brain kicks into gear as he picks me up and rushes me to the hospital. An hour later, we are holding our son, and our little family feels perfect.Our story ended up being the best fairy tale of them all. At least, in my opin
The Alpha's True Love Chapter 107 - Matthew is my destined mate!
BeverlyMatthew is my parents’ son, and they don’t care where he came from. They accepted him, and they have always expected the pack to accept him the same way. As a matter of fact, now that my father has gone and taken that step, I can’t believe that I ever thought one of my uncles would take over.I’m surprised that I never saw this coming. Matthew keeps telling my father that he won’t accept it unless I’m okay with it and, finally, my father looks at me with that “you had better answer me right now” look. I sigh. Do I really have a choice?“I don’t care. Everyone already thinks he should be alpha.” I shrug and get up. Just as I’m about to leave, I feel a strong hand on the back of my elbow and I turn around and glare at Matthew with my eyes filled with tears.I didn’t mean to cry. I didn’t think it would upset me as much. I can’t understand why it does. I’ve always known it wouldn’t be me! I pull my arm from his grip and leave without another word. I have my own problems and I wan
The Alpha's True Love Chapter 106 - It will never be me.
Beverly“Well, I’m sorry! I wasn’t the one who was walking with her head in the dirt.” He doesn’t move out of my way and looks at me that strange way again, and I roll my eyes. He always has these strange sayings that nobody understands!If I didn’t know for a fact that he had gone to school, I would have wondered if he wasn’t perhaps some wild rogue that my parents adopted!“What is your problem?” I frown. He has been acting stranger than normal recently and I haven’t been able to figure out what is up with him.“Sorry. It’s just been one of those days. What did your dad want?” He frowns, seemingly not listening to a word I’m saying, and clearly trying to change the subject.“I guess he wants the same thing that he asked you about that is bothering you so badly that you don’t look where you are going.” I push past him, knowing full well that he won’t leave that comment there. He follows me down the steps and into the street, and we walk in silence for a while.“So? What are you going
The Alpha's True Love Chapter 105 - What now?!
BeverlyMy biggest frustration as I make my way through the crowd, however, is that I can see the looks. You know? The ones that say they are so sorry that I’m still single! It puts so much pressure on me to find a mate. Yeah, my family all had fairy tale true loves. Great!I don’t. Not yet. And honestly, I’m in no hurry. I’ve never been able to understand the concept of it all. So, you barely turn eighteen and have barely become a grown up and the entire world expects you to fall in love, get mated and have a baby.All within the first month of turning eighteen! I smile at one of the older guests who tells me that I shouldn’t worry and that my turn will come. I could have told her the same thing, but I thought it would sound a bit rude. Sighing, I make my way to the back of the party to try and just get away from all the looks.The day has been perfect. The ceremony, the party. All the packs are behaving. Why does it all have to be ruined by the fact that I don’t have a mate?! The ni
The Alpha's True Love Chapter 104 - Into the future ...
BeverlyThe sun streams through my window and I yawn and stretch before jumping out of bed. Today is a big day for our pack. After three generations, we’ve finally built a monument in honour of the people who brought us peace.My family were the ones who fought for that peace and, according to our history, my great-great-grandmother or one of those was the one who defied the old council. She was mated to her destined mate after her entire life was turned upside down.She is my hero, and although I don’t want to fall in love under the same circumstances, I would really like it if I have a love like she had. I suggested the monument to my parents, and they jumped at the chance to do something.It has been built in neutral territory so that any wolf from any pack can go there and just look at our history. It is a secret location, of course, so the humans don’t find it, but it is open to all werewolves. Keeping it secret was a bit of a thing.We had to find somewhere the humans didn’t go
The Alpha's True Love Chapter 103 - The circle of life.
NicoletteI watch as Eli finds his beautiful and shy mate, Amy, and my heart just soars as I see their love grow. I keep thinking back to the couple that started it all, and I’m grateful every day that they stuck to their guns. They didn’t have an incredible start, but they stuck to it and saved our people.A couple of years later, I watch my baby Isabella turns eighteen. She finds her mate, Liam on the same night and I almost wish I could go back a couple of years and just experience some of the first days of being in love.Those first moments that you spend together. My true love wasn’t a fairy tale in the beginning either, but as soon as the problems were solved, life was just perfect. I have watched my children grow up in a world where they are safe from harm, and they know that they are loved every single day.Time ticked by too fast, and on a rainy day just as the leaves turned the most beautiful colours right at the beginning of fall, I had to say goodbye to the man I had loved
The Alpha's True Love Chapter 102 - True love and a beautiful life.
NicoletteTwo years after everything changed for me, I’m sitting in our son, Eli’s room. He is crawling around making baby noises and I can’t help but smile as my hand protectively covers my stomach. We have just found out that I’m expecting our second child, and I can’t be happier.My mind drifts to our history and how incredible not only my fairy tale but also the rest of this family’s fairy tale has been. My mother passed away a year ago, which has broken the last of my ties with Max’s pack. I did as she asked and buried her with my father.I will never visit their graves, but it doesn’t bother me. I have my memories of them and that is all that matters. Max’s pack has slowly started to deteriorate now that everyone knows what he is up to and, slowly but surely, most of the females left to find their destined mates.Without the money, Max is unable to take care of all of them the same way he used to. It is sad, but it doesn’t bother me anymore. I have been spending my time away fro
The Alpha's True Love Chapter 101 - Max is not my father!
NicoletteThere are so many unanswered questions, but only one of them is right at the top of my list. Is Max my father? I try and find out from my mother, but she refuses to tell me. I also know that Max will never tell me the truth and even if he does, I won’t believe him. Which leaves me with only one option.“I want a paternity test.” I look at Paul the first second we are alone and he frowns.“Are you sure?” He seems hesitant, but I know why. Once I have the actual physical confirmation, it will change everything.“I’m sure. It will not just give me certainty, but if he is, then we have more proof that Max hasn’t been honest with anybody.” I sigh. Paul informs his parents and, before long, I’m sitting in the hospital wing where they are gathering everything they need.Paul joins me moments after the doctor has finished to confirm that the pack that is holding Max will be gathering his samples in the next few minutes. It will take a couple of days to get the results, since nobody
The Alpha's True Love Chapter 100 - Who is my father?
NicoletteSurprisingly, it doesn’t take very long for the packs to send us their suggestions and a month later, we walk back into the beautiful hotel. Sadly, after my previous experience, it has lost some of its luster. Everyone is eager to get down to business.After Paul and I have greeted everyone, we all get together in the conference room and start working on our new constitution. It takes a couple of hours to get it all set up and, after a wonderful lunch, everyone returns. Paul had one of his pack members type up the new agreement and with great anticipation, everyone signs.Once that is settled, we all agree that we would like to rest before dinner. We need to decide on Max’s fate, and it seems everyone is a little hesitant to do that. The previous council caused so much damage to our people, and when I’m honest with myself, I have to admit that my existence is because of that.Out of all the alpha’s Max is the second oldest. There is one alpha who never met his mate and didn’
