All Chapters of My Father My Mate : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Lucas I walked through the dimly lit corridor of our secret headquarters, the weight of my recent decision bearing down on my shoulders like a heavy stone. As I approached the oak door at the end that belonged to the office of the boss, my heart pounded with a mixture of anxiety and fear. I knew that this meeting would not be pleasant because Jackson had failed to eliminate Drake, and the boss had already heard about it. Only if Jackson had finished the job, I wouldn't be standing here now, dreading what comes next.I knocked twice and heard a gruff voice from within, "Enter."I pushed the door open and stepped into the office of my boss, a stern and unforgiving figure known as Sandwick. He was a man of few words but had an uncanny ability to see through people and look into their very soul "Alpha Lucas, have a seat." With a scowl on his face Sandwick said as I immediately obeyed, taking a chair across from his massive oak desk not wanting to piss him off than he already was, my gaz

JakeAs I stood in the center of the clearing, the cool, crisp scent of the surrounding pine trees enveloped me, their fragrance mixing with the earthy undertones of damp soil. The towering pines formed a natural shade, their thick trunks stretching skyward like ancient sentinels. Sunlight filtered through the dense canopy, casting dappled shadows that danced on the forest floor.The atmosphere was tense, a heavy weight pressing down on my shoulders as I glanced around at the assembled members of the Slivertail pack. Wolves of various sizes and colors stood in a tight circle, their expressions a mixture of disgust and anger. Their eyes were fixed on my father Alpha Lucas, the man that had betrayed us, we were all waiting for the trial of the century that would mark a turning point in our pack's history.I took a deliberate, deep breath, the scent of pine needles filling my nostrils, as if nature itself were lending me strength. My heart pounded in my chest.Alpha Lucas, once a feared

ZeldaI could feel the tension building in the air as Drake and Jake's growls grew louder and more aggressive. I really don't know why they were growling. Are they dogs? Or wait sorry ignore that question."Jake, you don't have a chance with her so forget about it," Drake snarled, his face inches from Jake's. "You think you can just waltz back into her life and act like you own her?"Jake's eyes narrowed, and he shot back, "Drake, you don't know that, this is between Zelda and i so back off"I tried to intervene but it was no use, they were already at each other's necks. "Guys, come on, this isn't the time or place for this."But they ignored me, locked in their argument on who doesn’t own me. The insults escalated, each word more intense than the last one. I could feel the tension escalating, and I knew this wouldn't end well.Suddenly, Jake threw a punch at Drake, and chaos erupted. A gasp left my lips as I stared at the scene in horror. What the fuck had Jaje just done? I rushed f

DrakeAfter the incident, I decided that it was safe to stay away from Madeline and Zelda. Until I find the rest of Lucas' lackeys, I have to keep them safe. Whoever drugged my drink did it to harm me and if they could get so close to me, then they can do anything to the women in my life. The attack confirmed my suspicion that Lucas didn't work alone to murder my brother, he had help and I will not stop until I find them all.Making up an excuse about having to travel urgently, I left the ladies and instructed my hidden guards to stay behind to protect them. I followed the new lead after dispersing the rest of the group. This is my battle and I will fight it alone. I booked a hotel room in a different city, far away from Madeline's place. I didn't want anyone to be able to find me, ask me questions, or make me feel like I had to explain myself.I just wanted to be alone, to continue to live anonymously. I wanted to disappear, to start over. And this hotel room was my first step to

JakeCindy's voice droned on, but I couldn't focus on what she was saying. My thoughts were swirling, and I was unable to make sense of them. I tried to concentrate on her words, but they were like a jumble of letters, impossible to decipher. I closed my eyes, trying to shut out the noise. But even with my eyes closed, I could still hear her, and my thoughts kept racing.Zelda's face kept flashing in my mind, like a movie on repeat. No matter how hard I attempted to think of something else, she was always there. It was like she had taken up permanent residence in my brain, and I couldn't make her leave. And the more I attempted to push her out, the angrier I became. She was like a mosquito buzzing in my ear, and I just wanted to swat her away.The memory of our last encounter kept replaying in my mind. It was a stark contrast to the Zelda I had known before. She had always been timid, but the last time I saw her, she was bold and defiant. And it irked me to no end. I couldn't under
