All Chapters of My True Mate: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

SHERRYI wake up to the smell of smoke and the sound of screams. The screams of my people.As awareness infiltrates me, along with this numbing dazedness, I feel an overwhelming sense of suffocation. It’s almost as if there is a heavy pressure on my chest.The sweet release of darkness has never been more inviting.It might be the cowards way out but right now, it seems the easiest way.But just as I am slipping into the void, I hear a familiar voice cry out, “Mama! No, don’t hurt my mama!”It’s a plaintive cry, the voice of a child who has till now been filled with laughter and joy. Ignoring my own pain, I look around and see the raging fires, along with the little girl screaming. There are other people crying out too, shouting, crying, screaming, but it is three year old’s voice that forces me to assess my situation. The reason for my suffocation is pretty easy to narrow down. Here is a huge slab of metal resting on my chest. The memory comes back in a sharp

My anger is fierce at her words.“What?” I set the coffee cup on the counter with a loud clang. “Have they lost their minds?!”Clara sighs, “If it makes you feel any better, I was also against the whole idea but Lucas,” she looks up to meet my gaze, “Sarah isn’t coming back. It’s been a year. The pack is fracturing without an Alpha pair.”“Then I’ll step down-““You know you can’t do that,” Clara rubs her temple, looking just as tired as I feel inside. “You’re the strongest member of the pack. And you’re the only who knew what Sarah was planning for the pack. You’re keeping everything going.”But I hate it.I hate stepping into a role that belongs to Sarah.She should be here. This is her home. Her place.Even a year as Alpha of the Stone Wolves and I still feel like a fraud.Clara seems to catch my wave of thinking and she murmurs, “Truth be told, Sarah was the catalyst of change int his pack. She brought us into a more advanced age. She had plans for the fut

I stare at her, my hands clenching by my sides.“You want me to bring her back?” I echo, a cold anger rising in within me. “To do what? Fight this war? Stand at the helm of everything? Have you seen the state she is in?!”Aliya’s eyes are tight as she meets my gaze, “We need her. I’m not saying she needs to fight. I’m saying that for the world to have any kind of future, Sarah needs to be leading the Stone Wolves Pack. Till she was there, we all had a chance. She is a catalyst. That girl is special, Lucas.”I absorb her words but it doesn’t help the anger inside of me.Aliya is talking about Sarah as if she is a thing, something to be used. “She is broken!” I hiss, hating myself for how my voice cracks. “I broke her, Aliya! You expect me to go to her and tell her to come back and see my face every day just to be reminded of what I did to her because you think it’s import-““This is not about you or her, or even me, Lucas!” Aliya’s words are sharp. “This is about the

I stiffen at her words and I want to say something but I just clench my fists. It is a painful reminder to myself that I have no right to interfere, no rights anymore to Sarah.From the look in the female shifter’s eyes, her words had been deliberate. I understand their anger and I choose not to respond.A year after losing Sarah has calmed down my usually explosive temper quite a lot.When we reach the underground garage, I see more vehicles but I don’t comment on it, just helping the wolves out. They rush towards a door on the side and I instinctively know they are going towards wherever Sarah is.Sarah’s ability to summon wolves is one that only a few powerful members of the Clear Mountain Clan have. She retained this ability even after losing her wolf. So, I follow the two wolves without thinking, my hands trembling.They race through the corridors of the den, rushing past people who don’t seem very surprised to see the two wolves but do gave me frowning looks. B

Ezekiel studies my face, “You look upset.”My jaw clenches and unclenches, “Are you serious? Sarah-““Sarah needs to move on. She needs to find somebody who will love her and allow her to heal in their embrace. Since you want to just lick your wounds and feel sorry for yourself, you’re clearly not the right person.You’re too busy playing the martyr to be any kind of support for her.”His words are a punch in the gut for me but I don’t deny them.I stopped trying to reach out to her, to try and beg her for forgiveness because I convinced myself I wasn’t worth her forgiveness. But to force Ezekiel to look at myself in the mirror is a bitter taste in the mouth.“My priority is my granddaughter,” The older male says, his voice stern, as he gets up. “There are many good men here who would keep her happy and never dare to betray her.”I almost stagger as I watch him leave, my gut twisting painfully.Watch Sarah be with someone else?The anger is a burning intensity in
