All Chapters of Alpha Ryker: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Taelin-After finding the ring, I placed it in a safe spot, in my room. No matter how hard I tried to stop it, I ended up breaking down into tears again. I was never one to cry, so this was only starting to annoy me every time I became emotional over something that shouldn’t make me emotional.Being that we had barely made it ten minutes at the packhouse without me getting sick and crying, I decided I wasn’t in any shape to return. Until I had a better hold on my hormones, I was a walking timebomb right now. It took a bit of convincing, but I had Ryker leave to take care of things without me.It has only been an hour since he left, but at least I managed to keep myself busy with fixing my bedroom door. The bathroom was going to take a bit more work, but I made it look a little more bearable. I was only glad that I hadn’t started crying again.A knock on the front door caught my attention. I had just sat down in the living room, in an attempt to read the book my mother left behind. It

Taelin-“How are you here?” I asked Amanda, after coming back downstairs and joining her in the living room.We were sitting on the couch, while the men were in the dining room, aside from Theo, who I left in his room. I thought Sara would have returned to the packhouse by now, but I had a feeling she was staying away from Carter until she figured out what she wanted. In the meantime, I figured I would talk to Amanda since I had a lot of questions.“After I left, I went home for a bit, and then I was kicked out. My family decided I wasn’t good enough because I left the program. Shortly after, the Alpha King contacted me and asked me to return because he needed to discuss something with me.” She crossed her legs on the couch as she spoke.“He told me that I was good enough to become a warrior, but he understood that the boys were making it difficult. I tried arguing with him that you were doing good, but he just said you were different. Everyone can see just how special you were, even

Special treat: Theo’s POVThe moment my eyes met hers, my ideals about not believing in fate vanished into thin air. I had always thought that Taelin was the woman I was meant to spend the rest of my life with. She had been beautiful, kind, funny, and everything a man could ever want and desire.Never in my life had I believed the fated mate thing was real. Yeah, I heard about it, but I figured it was more of a myth than anything. Even if I believed it at one point, I figured it was just a primal desire to mate with someone.Kind of in the sense that one was overcome with a sexual desire for someone. I didn’t want to be with a female if all I wanted to do was have sex with her. I had thought I wanted someone like Taelin.Granted, I had definitely wanted her sexually, but it was nothing like how I was feeling at this exact moment. Every cell in my body came alive the moment I saw Sara. All the feelings I have ever thought I had about Taelin, just disappeared.For the first time, I unde

Taelin-“It is an honor to finally meet you.” The Alpha King bowed to my mother.It was strange seeing him bowing to my mother like she was some sort of royalty. What was even more strange, was seeing the way she blushed when he kissed the back of her hand. Since my father died, she has never shown interest in another man.If I thought they would do well together, I would be all for trying to get them together. I just couldn’t see either of them being happy together if they did. My mother was far too anxious for the Alpha King.Not to mention she would more than likely make my life a living hell and try to convince him to not let me be a warrior. Not that I was one to stand in the middle of happiness. Yet I couldn’t help but hope they didn’t find interest in each other to that degree.“Oh? Has my daughter mentioned me?” She asked, a polite smile on her face.He released her hand and backed away a few feet. His eyes landed on me for a moment, before returning to answer her question. “O

Ryker-“Please forgive my earlier behavior. It is a pleasure to meet you, uh…” Taelin’s mother spoke as she made her way down the stairs to join us.“Alpha Ryker, but I insist that you call me Ryker.” I kept my composure, not wanting to come off as a fool in front of my mate’s mother.I might be an Alpha, but I was raised to respect my elders. The last thing I wanted was for her to find another thing to scold Taelin over. It didn’t help that I could practically feel my mate’s nervousness as if it were my own.“My daughter mentioned you were an Alpha. Forgive me for my disrespect, but I am curious if you are okay with losing your title as Alpha to become the mate of the next Alpha King?” Her left eyebrow raised as if she was challenging me to say the wrong thing.“Not in the least. As her mate, I will stand by her and allow her to do what she was meant to be. You have raised an incredibly special daughter and it is a privilege to stand beside her as she paves a new destiny for us all.”
