Chapter 78Noah settled into the bean bag in the living room. He had no idea how he'd convince her to hate him, especially not when he had his memories back."I have rogue blood running through my veins", he deadpanned. Better to rip off the band-aid at once.Myla gasped, not properly settled into her chair before she launched herself up."What? Your parents were rogues?", She asked in fear. Noah squinted slightly. It seemed she was disgusted by rogues. It would be easier to get her to hate him than he realized. His heart twinged in sadness."Not were, they still are. Let's just say my father is making new rogues with poison. And I was bombarded with the poison, so I'm a rogue, and will probably go insane soon", he said casually, like seeing every expression that flitted across her face wasn't making his heart shatter.Myla looked to her lap as she sat. She stayed silent for what seemed like minutes."Is there a way to get the poison out?", She asked shakily."Death", he said in a low
Chapter 79Myla paced around the room. What could she do? She needed to help him. She needed to find a way to help Noah before it was too late.She had half a mind to summon her mother, but the moon goddess would be busy giving new mates at this hour, it would be annoying to be pulled from work.She sat on his bed, and wrapped his blanket around her. He smelled like he should again. Their scents were mixed completely, so much that she couldn't figure out where his began and hers ended. It smelled right. She closed her eyes, going through her mind, trying to figure out how to extract poison from the bloodstream. That was why he hadn't hung out around the twins for so long. She wiped a tear with her sleeve, thinking about how Noah hadn't even enjoyed having a mate for long at all.The tiny wolf with adorable lavender eyes came to sit in front of her face. She smiled and smoothed his fur. His eyes looked a lot like the shade of Noah's wolf's eyes. She loved the colors of Noah's eyes, re
Chapter 80Myla's eyes filled with understanding, she reached out to Noah, her heart aching for him. He looked guilty, and she could see the self hatred swimming in his eyes.Noah's usually unyielding facade was crumbling, he didn't hesitate. With a mixture of vulnerability and longing, he pulled her closer, nestling his face in her hair. He pulled her close, and she could feel the tremors coursing through him as his arms enveloped her. It was Myla who had initiated this hug, and she did it with the profound awareness of how deeply Noah had been affected.She could feel his ragged breath against her shoulder, and she ran her fingers gently through his hair, soothing him with her touch. It had been a night of chaos and fear, and Myla knew that Noah had been shaken to his core. Noah had lost control and bitten her. He had sealed their fates without being able to soothe the terrifying pain Myla felt as his teeth sank into her skin.It had been a moment of sheer terror, and Myla's heart h
Chapter 81Noah bolted up, dislodging the lady in his arms. She almost fell off the bed save for Noah quickly holding her back. He pulled her back safely to the bed, putting her beside him again."Who -what- whats going on?", Myla asked in a panic, looking around frantically. She was breathing hard, being launched early in the morning wasn't precisely the wake up call she thought she'd get. Noah squeezed his eyes shut and yawned. A long and loud stretch followed the action, his long legs and long arms going askew.He opened his eyes tiredly blinking blearily at her. Myla had never seen a hotter sight. She surveyed him from head to toe. She had never seen a just awake Noah ever and she was feeling like she had missed out on great things.Noah's lips quirked up to the right and he watched her through hooded eyes."Morning my lady", he propped himself up with his elbow. "Hi. Why'd you wake up like that?", She asked, her priorities refusing to waver.Noah groaned and rolled his eyes. "
Chapter 82Zack had never been so pleasantly surprised in his long life.Noah had always been known for his intense focus and unwavering dedication to his work, more often than not, it was a huge pain in the ass, but on this particular day, there was a noticeable change in the air. As he settled into his chair at the head of the conference room table, a relaxed and laid-back vibe emanated from him.Zack wasn't used to this brand new Noah. Before his long years of going missing, he always had this rigid way of holding meetings, he wasn't brutal, but he also wasn't nice. Only a select few people got the privilege of seeing Noah as his playful self.After he came back, he was even worse. He was actively hostile, ready to tear into the alphas. They were incompetent, yes, but the majority of the new ones just needed guidance. Noah had gotten rid of the rude old men that wanted to reign sovereign, leaving the fresh meat out for Noah to dry.Although, now Noah looked…happy.The early mornin
Chapter 83Noah threw eighteen cuffs in his cross bag and smoothed his hair with his hand. It was time for his team to roll out on patrol. His team was the only team short of one member. Unlike what he expected, Alex acted like a…fanboy. He always found Alex looking at him with a tinge of admiration, it was freaky, and it made him feel guilty for the plans he had in mind."You're dressed so casually", Isabella accused him with a glare. Noah grinned."I have to pacify the big boss after patrol", he shot finger guns at her and carefully put his brand new phone in his chest pocket before zipping it up. Myla had bought it for him just a week ago because she wanted them to use the same type, it had obviously become his most prized possession."No more dog food please!", Zack yelled from behind as they filed into the heavy duty jeep. After the first three patrols, Noah decided that the sturdy car was the best, as the rogues had taken to smashing their large furry bodies against whatever fo
Chapter 84Noah dodged a rogue that Isabella flung skillfully away from herself. Noah found it hard to fight one handed, he also found it hard to fight trying to block his phone's mic as much as he could, as he was currently on a call with Myla."I'll be home in an hour, tops!", Noah placated. The progress she had made was slowly being countered by Noah getting to her later than he was meant to, and she was actually getting angry."What the fuck are you doing right now? And why are you grunting? Are you exerting yourself?!", Myla asked in a shrill voice, Noah imagined her putting one hand on her hip in annoyance. He smiled slightly."I'm training with the boys and Isa, to keep them in shape", he said easily. It wasn't too much of a lie, except this was an easy case of life or death if he didn't pay attention."Stop training and come back home! Who trains at 10 in the night?!", She asked angrily again. Noah kicked away a rogue running straight for him before quickly cuffing it. They h
Chapter 85Noah was exasperated. He and Alex were currently in a tense standoff. It was entirely unnecessary in his opinion, as he wasn't even the one interested in Alex's girl."Listen mate", Noah started, reclining in his ridiculously comfortable private office chair that emitted nothing but Myla's scent. She had spent a lot of time in this chair, which made it his favorite chair in the world. "You should leave off Adrien-""What?! He's actively taking my mate away and you want me to just sit back and relax?!", Alex asked angrily, bandhing his hand on Noah's table.Noah squinted in annoyance but quickly masked it, he wanted to be a therapist, not a disciplinarian."Yes, if your mate doesn't want anything to do with you, you should just leave her, explore your horizons", Noah said calmly.Alex looked like he was about to form another retort. Noah raised his hand and shook his head."I'm serious, if she doesn't want to be chased, don't chase her", Noah said again. Alex looked conflict
