All Chapters of The Runaways' Second Chance Mate: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

"Where the hell is she? Did any of you find her?" Another burst of fury from Blaze's voice reverberated across the room. "Where the fucking hell did she go this time? I need to find her by any means necessary! Fucking let me out of here! Are all of you forgetting who the boss is?! Quen, damn you!" Quen responded by saying, "Damn it, Blaze! Will you calm down? Tantrums like this are not good for you." "Come on, really? Calm down? You want me to fucking calm down? Are you hearing yourself right now?" "Yes, I want you to calm down. Don't stress yourself too much." "I find it impossible to calm down or even to be at ease when the reality that Snow just left is hitting me hard. She can't just leave me. I had to go after her, like I have been telling you since I woke up. I

My father and I had been staring at each other for a few moments now, too taken aback about seeing each other again to say anything at the moment. He acts as the Alpha, not my father, so even though my heart wanted to rush to him and give him a tight embrace, I am trying to contain myself.  Eris is also whining inside of me; I am aware of how this scene is also affecting her as much as it is affecting me. I want to simply cry and let everything out because I wanted to admit just this once that I am weak, and with my wolf being as emotional as I can be, I don't know how to be strong. My father finally said, "Snow."  When I heard him call out my name, a tear escaped from me because I couldn't stand it any longer. I missed him so much and wanted to feel that he felt the same way about me as his daughter, b

"Eris, what do you think has taken place here since we were gone?" It was an inquiry that had been brought up more than once before, but his father nor Ryder never had anything to say, nor did they have the drive to give them the answers until now. "Aren't you wondering what's wrong and why the Alpha refuses to allow us to go home? I mean, I can't understand why we aren't allowed to return home and see the pack." The only thing Eris was able to say was, "I don't know as well, Snow." Like Snow, Eris is curious as to why they are unable to return home, but unlike Snow, she is not inclined to keep asking for an explanation—especially if the Alpha is the one who is preventing them from doing so. Eris happens to be terrified of the Alpha, so she knows when to give up on finding out the answers that are being kept away from them.

This might have been the most detrimental action Eris and I have ever taken, but it doesn't matter because I know that I must do everything in my power to save my mate as soon as I hear him calling out to me. I cannot let anything happen to Blaze even though I am deeply hurt with all that has transpired between us. Yes, I still continue to think of him as my mate, despite my mind's denial that I still need him. In my heart, we still have that connection, and there is still a vague hope in me that that connection we have will never fade. I am honestly torn between him and Phoenix because I know that, although it is a faint one, I still have a mate bond between both of them. And I am as confused as probably Eris is right now. I distinctly recall feeling that unbearable pain in my chest, and recognizing that Blaze was in trouble, I, right away, began to take act

Although it was not my original plan to bring Blaze and Quen to the house where Eris and I are staying, I don't have any other option as I find myself at a loss for what to do. I have to make sure that I heal my mate, who has been wounded, before I get rid of them. And on top of that, I need to make sure that the pack of wolves who ambushed them will no longer be a threat to them. He has been staring at me since earlier, and I am conscious of the fact that he has a lot of questions for me, but I'm not even sure if I'm prepared to give him the responses he was hoping for at this time. I may have revealed to him who I really am or what I really was, but I'm not sure if I can further explain my existence to him in more detail. There is a lot for me to consider before I tell him the story of my life other than what he already knows, that my fiance cheated on me w
