All Chapters of Ruthless Alpha's Second Chance Mate : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Mabel came in not long after my mate left and I wiped my eyes, gritting my teeth at the pain it caused me to move my arms. "I overheard the Alpha. He was very worried about you dear and isn't angry with you or you being his mate. He's angry with himself and his lack of making arrangements to keep you safe. He feels that he failed you," she said solemnly. I exhaled deeply and asked her why he didn't tell me that himself instead of yelling at me like a hateful prick. She grinned slightly and didn't reply but asked me if I wanted to be propped up against the pillows and headboard. "I suppose I'll need to move around eventually so sure," I mumbled sourly and she grabbed all of Grayson's pillows and stuffed them against the headboard. The scent of my mate permeated the room and I frowned, finding that I missed the obnoxious man. I glanced down at my bare chest as Mabel helped lift me against the mound of pillows."Do you think you can handle a t-shirt against your back? I can bring you o

I couldn't believe that Grayson was being so forward. My wolf told me that he was concerned that I was pregnant by another and I found that appalling. She also informed me that I may have been violated by the Alpha that whipped me and I shuddered at the memory. There wasn't any semen that dripped down my leg so I told her that I doubted that he ejaculated internally in me. She agreed with a whimper. When I was sleeping in Grayson's comfortable bed the moon Goddess appeared to me in the dreamscape and explained that in order to get the love that I wished for I needed to put forth the effort to gain it from my mate. She also told me it would be challenging for me to gain it but well worth the struggle and to be fearless. I told her I would put forth the effort to please the stunning Goddess. My wolf encouraged me and gave me suggestions. It had been her idea to let the kissing continue. I did enjoy it though, Grayson was talented at kissing. Sierra was a frisky she-wolf I was learning.

I couldn't believe Harkin saying what he had to Violet. She surprised me with her answer and even more when she appeared in the basement of Martinez's home to rescue me. The silver in my bloodstream was concerning and causing my flesh a grayish tinge. The doctor was drawing my blood to test how badly I'd been poisoned."Your Lycan half should fight and clean your blood if the infection isn't too far," he said firmly and ran the red substance into his Theranos machine. As we waited for the results Violet sat next to me holding my hand. Instead of nervously wringing her own she would periodically squeeze mine. I thought it was cute. I could hear knocking coming from my front door even from upstairs and glanced up at Harkin and then Mabel."I will answer it," Harkin grunted and headed out of the room. Violet was acting nervously and I squeezed her hand."I'm going to be alright, sweetheart," I told her and she looked at me and nodded with a slight smile. Harkin came back into the room l

"I'd like to join you if it's alright?" Harkin nodded and told me to be up early and that he would take me to the pack houses and then see Grayson."Sounds good. Thank you, Harkin," I said firmly and he nodded as he waited for me to exit the office. I started around the desk when a crumpled piece of white paper caught my eye. I bent over to retrieve it and opened it to see Isabella's handwriting on it in a black permanent marker. My eyes rushed over the words and I got nauseated. I held it up and glared at Harkin."This is bullshit. That bitch is pretending to be Jack and wrote this because that idiot can't spell and his penmanship is like chicken scratches!" I growled threateningly and he plucked the letter from my hands and frowned as he read it."It appears that they are trying to create the same problems that arose with his first mate. I really wish Grayson would have ended them," he muttered rubbing his eyes."Well, I will gladly if Jack or Isabella think either of them is taking

I fell asleep while Grayson carried me. His lycan was warm and the movement of his stride had lulled me along with my mate's scent. When he stopped I felt dampness on my cheek and nose and opened my eyes to see his Lycan's tongue coming at me for another swipe against my face. I blocked it and the beast growled at me."You taste and smell nice," he growled roughly."Do you have a name like Nyko?" I asked curiously and he grunted."Yeah it's Auberon but just call me Grayson, Alpha, or Forest," he said staunchly and I grinned and told him my wolf's name was Sierra. He told me he already knew that and walked up the steps of his home. I turned and was surprised by our getting there so quickly."I want your brand covered. I will not accept any slave as my mate no matter how much I desire her," he spoke coldly. I asked to be sat down suddenly feeling uncomfortable with the way he was behaving. Grayson sat me on my feet and nuzzled against my neck."I would like to give you my mark but must
