All Chapters of The Alpha's Heart - The Nightshade Pack Chronicles (Book 1): Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

GabriellaMelody let her friends know that Eli was suspicious of her return, but at least her parents were safe. The soldiers took many of her parent’s friends prisoner, but Eli must have felt something for them because her mother explained that he made sure they were safe. Eli clearly still had feelings for Melody. What those feelings were, on the other hand, remained a mystery.Matthew, on the other hand, wasn’t doing that great to infiltrate the Wolf King’s men. They were a pretty tight group and he was beaten up pretty badly. To make sure they didn’t kill him, Gabriella ordered him to meet them at the border to the homelands. They could use every man they had. As soon as they were all a little rested after their move from the pack grounds, Gabriella couldn’t see why they should waste any more time.The Wolf KingIt wasn’t a surprise to hear that that damn female got an army together and was now just outside his border. He was standing in the old king’s war room with all his adviso

VenusThe boy named Hunter tilted his head to one side looking amused but at the same time confused. Okay, fine, so he wasn’t a boy, but it was the only way Venus could bring herself to think about without THINKING about him! Was this how the wolves felt when they met their mates? All hot and bothered? Hell! She didn’t even know how demi-goddesses were meant to feel when they meet the love of their life!“Venus,” His voice was so damn smooth that she had to clench her legs together tightly to keep her arousal in check! She knew that wolves were able to smell it and she wasn’t about to give away the fact that she found him incredibly irresistible! “I don’t want anything from you.” He took a couple of steps closer and she sat down to put the table between them, making him smile as he leaned against the counter. He studied her for a moment while crossing his arms over his chest. “I want to be with the woman the moon goddess chose for me to be with. You.” He looked at the door as if heari

GabriellaThe second cup of tea smelled strongly of peppermint and Gabriella enjoyed it even more than the first. She was feeling groggy and the last thing she remembered was Lucienne pulling the covers over her as if tucking her in. The angel explained to Lucienne that the second cup of tea had something in it to knock Gabriella out so she wouldn’t remember the pain she was about to go through. They had to extract the darkness from her wound and he suggested to Lucienne that he shouldn’t hang around for it, but Lucienne refused to leave her side.There was a huge possibility that Gabriella wouldn’t survive the procedure and he didn’t want to leave her alone if that happened. If his mate breathed her last breath, he wanted to be right there by her side. The angel nodded as more angels entered the room. One was carrying a large ancient book. One had a golden bowl and the last was carrying a strange glass bottle.Lucienne moved out of the way and watched as they removed the covers from

GabriellaIt took some time to get all the innocent people released from prison, but Gabriella knew that she had to do what she had to do if she was going to win the hearts and minds of the people from the homelands. In the end, she would need all their help to win this battle against the Wolf King. The goddess only knew what he was up to and where else he could be hiding more armies and, worst of all, how long he had been planning his takeover.So, she made sure that the people she could take care of were cared for while Lucienne and the gang tracked the Wolf King. She was healed and that was great, but she wasn’t entirely at her full strength yet, so she spent her days going through the court papers and arrest files of the people who were in prison. It was an amazing feeling when she could tell someone they were being released and then saw the look of gratitude on their family’s faces as they walked out. She was doing something to make things better.She was busy going through a fil

GabriellaGabriella was concerned that they might be attacked, but it soon became clear that they might just have a good day. What was the most surprising thing of all was to see Eli and his family in one of the front rows of the chamber. When the councillor came to the part where he asked if anybody present had any objections to the union, Gabriella’s attention turned to Eli, but he remained in his seat.Gabriella fought the urge to laugh as the ceremony continued and Melody and Matthew promised to love and honour each other for the rest of their lives. Gabriella had to admit that it really was a beautiful ceremony, and she stepped forward so she could officially make them part of the pack. Cutting her palm, she held it out to Melody, who did the same and as soon as their palms touched, Gabriella could feel Melody’s power flow through her.Since she had already made Matthew a pack member, that part wasn’t necessary. The time had come for the two of them to be linked and Gabriella han
