All Chapters of Bloodline Redemption: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

{ Novaleigh } The teapot’s shrill whistle filled every corner of the house as I stepped out of the shower. I slipped on some jeans and a sweatshirt, unable to keep the smile off my face. I glanced at my calendar while I head to the kitchen and run my fingers over the week. It was Thursday now. It had been a few days since the incident with Clarice and thanks to Remi’s secret herbs my face was practically completely healed, it was incredible. I turned off the heat for the teapot and pulled it onto a pot holder on the counter while I grabbed a bag of the magic herbs. Today was the last day I’d be taking them most likely but I wanted to take them all the way through till I was completely healed. The past two days had been filled with Remi, nonstop. I noticed a little difference in him when I came into work Wednesday. At first he seemed tenser, like something was weighing on his mind. B

“I guess we found out why it feels like I’ve known you forever. You are familiar.” She had a big smile on her face and this brightness in her eyes that wasn’t there before. “I was also yelled at, for that day. My parents weren’t happy I was so far away from them and alone. But I never told anyone about playing with you. You were my secret, and I even went back to the field more than a few times to see if you were there again. The field means something to me too.” This woman did not have my heart. She was my heart. I thought I was connected, I thought I knew what all this was… but its like we are attached by this string. And now there are 3 strings. And our tether is even stronger and our connection is deeper because we share this history and we share these emotions that have stayed with us even when we were apart. How was it possible I loved this woman this much, and we couldn’t even fee

“Mate? Like soul mate?” I look over at dad who nods. “Your mother wasn’t my other half, or my soulmate, Novaleigh. She was my mate. The word I never got to use in front of you, the thing we held between ourselves. That we were mated. We were destined. And even though we lost our wolves, we were marked and till the day she died, she was my mate.” “Every wolf, has a mate. Part of our gifts from the Moon Goddess, or so the legend goes, is that along with our wolves she gave each wolf a mate. Our perfect match, to better us and love us and be all the things we weren’t. to complete us. Our bond with our mate is exaggerated. You feel… tingles when you touch.” My breath leaves my body as Remi speaks. He steps forward and runs his hand up my arm as he says tingles. “you feel sparks, when you kiss. You are obsessed with their scent, their specific smell.” He gives me a knowing eyebrow

She asked it like we were going to try a new restaurant or she was going to her first professional football game. Definitely not like it was life altering and painful."Um, what parts do you want to know more about?" I probed She hummed and dug throught he cupboards in the kitchen. I followed her in there and sat at the table watching her. "Start with how it feels. Like, how will I know it's time to. How do I start it?" "You don't. Your wolf will. And as a Beta, you will have a very strong wolf so it will most likely be pushy." As I said this I shook my head, realizing that I now knew why my wolf was so strong. He was an Alpha. "Your wolf will push into you. Have you... felt anything yet? Maybe a presence in your mind or tingling/burning under your skin?" She turned to me with her head cocked to one side and deep expression on her face. "Yes actually. Ever since Clarice popped me one, I had these blinding headaches where it feels like my head is splitting in two and then I Feel

As he pulled away I could see how drained Joe looked from the toll the past day took on him. I could only assume how hard the weeks leading up to it had been as well as he navigated how to tell them and how they would take it. Anna wouldn't shift until she turned 25 or until she met her mate Joe had told me before, even if she wasn't turning 25 Nov would have still started breaking her suppression since she met me. Anna also wouldn't be going anywhere anymore though, she needed to stay here especially while we sort out the Silver Rock issue. All these thoughts were swirling in my mind as I watched the three of them talk. As much as I had to sort out my life, I felt responsible for Nov and Anna's now as well. What I chose would effect each of them."Well, I think Anna and I should go. You go be with your mate, I'm sure Nessa would appreciate to meet Remi's wolf. We can talk tomorrow." He looked at Nov until the last sentence when his eyes shifted to meet mine."There is a lot to talk a
