All Chapters of The Alpha’s Scorned: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

...Darius POV..."So, where do you want to start?" Kenji asks me, just as the plane is landing. "Well, I thought that we could go to the apartment first, and get settled, then I was going to work on searching some of the nearby packs." I say."Wait.. apartment?" Kenji asks."Yes, an apartment. Did you really think that I would come all the way here to stay in a hotel for who knows how long?" I ask sarcastically."Well... most people do." He says, making it seem like I'm the weird one."I guess I'm just realistic." I say, sounding slightly defeated."What do you mean?" Kenji asks."Well, as much as I would love to find her and take her back to the pack with us, we both know that isn't an option. Her parents would definitely come after us for kidnapping. Plus, how do I explain to both her and her parents that I'm her mate in the first place? They would think I'm crazy. Since she hasn't shifted yet, she won't be able to acknowledge the bond between us. So until she turns sixteen, it wou

After explaining everything that had happened to Kenji, we both sat in silence, wondering what to do next. Asher had been whimpering in my head the moment I decided to head back. He wanted us to stay by her side, but I knew I couldn't do that. I need to respect her privacy and give her space. I would wait a lifetime if it meant that I would get to have her in my arms. I find myself growling all of a sudden. I began to pace the floor. Kenji stood up, looking at me."What's wrong?" He asked."I don't know. I think Asher's trying to take control. He wants to go back to our mate." I say as I find myself fighting with Asher for control of my own body."Asher! Stop! You don't need to do this!" Kenji calls to my wolf, making me spin to look at him.Kenji took a step back from me, and I can only guess why. My gaze locks onto the mirror behind him, where I see a distorted mix of both human and wolf. My face is human, with wolf eyes and teeth. My claws have even come out. So I can understand K

...Darius POV...I didn't know where to even begin. Nothing was making even the slightest bit of sense to me. I could tell she could sense me near her. I could feel her calm down the closer I was to her. I didn't want to scare her when she woke up, but I needed to be near her in any way I could. I had tried just sitting near her bed. However, I felt this pull to be closer to her. I tried to avoid it, but I noticed how even unconscious, her small body reacted to my touch. That punch that the Hammer had dealt her should've killed her. The Hammer had actually punched her so hard that it shifted her vertebrae in her back out of complete alignment. The doctors thought for sure that she would be paralyzed if she even managed to wake up. I was completely distraught. I held her hand, praying to the moon goddess that she would bring Wynter back to me. I couldn't lose her now. Not when I had only just found her. The moment my hand found hers, her heart monitor began to go off. My immediate re

...Wynter POV...I was so tired. It felt like every ounce of energy had rushed out of me. I could feel a warm embrace surrounding me. It was so comforting that I instinctually moved towards it. "Where am I?" I ask, running my hand along my forehead in pain."It's ok, Little One. I'm here. You're safe." I heard the familiar voice coo to me. I shifted my head up to look into his magnificent eyes. I reached up and cupped his cheek."Are you really here? Or is this just another dream?" I ask.I smile as I hear him laugh at me."Yes, Little One. I'm here." He says, smiling at me.As if to prove his statement, he shifts his left hand to run down the back of my head. I feel instantly lost at the sensation. This sensation is far better than anything I could ever imagine."What happened?" I ask."You were in a coma." "What? How? For how long?""What do you remember?" He counters.I find myself relaxing further into his embrace as I try to remember the events from before."I.. I remember a f

...Wynter POV...I didn't make it far from the hospital before I started balling my eyes out. I had thought taking his memories away from him was the worst pain I could ever feel, but this was entirely worse. I don't know how long I was there crying before Caedance helped to put me back together. She reminded me of why this had to be done. While it may hurt right now, it would be far more excruciating should something actually happen to him.I knew she was right, but that didn't make it hurt any less.'I know, sweetheart. I wish we could be with him. He's so handsome and caring. I haven't had the chance to meet his wolf, but I'm sure he's just as remarkable.' Caedance said to me.'Do you think he'll understand?' I ask, deep inside wondering if he actually hates that I'm doing this to him.'I know he could never hate you. He'll understand why you chose to do this. This wasn't a decision you were able to make lightly. I wish things were different, and we could ask him what he would pref
