All Chapters of TETHERED : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

KEILAH "Wait, I don't understand," I said slowly, my voice tinged with suspicion. "Why now? Why the sudden apology when we both know we don't like each other? What are you planning—”Before I could continue, she took my hand, her grip surprisingly gentle. "That's why I want to make amends. Let's start off by officially introducing you to the other members," she said, her voice carrying a mix of determination and hope."Wait, what?" I protested, but she was already leading me out of the room.As she guided me down the hallway, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease. This was so unlike her, and I couldn't help but wonder if there was an ulterior motive. But her sincerity seemed genuine, and I decided to give her the benefit of the doubt—for now.We reached the dining room, which i didn't even know existed, and the moment we stepped inside, all eyes turned towards us. The room was filled with the pack members, each seated with plates of food in front of them. Conversations halted, and a

RALPH As I sped down the road, the dense forest on either side blurred into a greenish-brown haze. My mind was already crowded with the thoughts of the tasks awaiting me at the Werewolf Council state, but my heart tugged me back to Keilah. Last night's conversation replayed in my mind, her soft voice, the way she looked at me with a mixture of scepticism and hope. Her vulnerability and her laughter had all left an indelible mark on me. I hope you meant every word you said to her. My wolf finally spoke up after ignoring me since yesterday. I thought you were dead. I teased. Not yet, but I will if you don't fulfil your promises. He said. Fur, did I look funny to you? I asked him. Before he could reply, I confirmed. I really meant every word and am so determined to make things right, to be the kind of mate she deserves. I said, but my Wolf didn't say anything else. Suddenly, my phone rang. I glanced at the screen and saw Zac's name flashing. For a moment, I considered ignor

RALPHMy breath caught in my throat as the weight of Isabella's words hit me. Pregnant? The idea seemed both impossible and inevitable at the same time. Keilah and I had been together, but with everything happening, the possibility of her being pregnant hadn’t crossed my mind."Pregnant?" I repeated, my voice a whisper of disbelief. "But how... I mean, with everything going on, I didn’t even consider..."Isabella's eyes softened as she saw the shock on my face. "It makes sense now," she said gently. "The glow you saw, the fainting, the voice... it could all be connected to the pregnancy. Sometimes, Alpha baby pregnancies can trigger unexpected abilities or reactions, especially in the early stages."I ran a hand through my hair, trying to process the new information. "But why would a voice tell her to stop Damien? And why now?"Isabella sighed, her expression thoughtful. "That, I can’t explain yet. It could be a manifestation of her protective instincts, heightened by the pregnancy. O

KEILAHMy head throbbed as I tried to shake off the lingering dizziness. The room spun, and a wave of nausea surged through me. Steadying myself against the bathroom sink after throwing up countless times, I took deep breaths to calm the turmoil in my stomach. What in the good Lord happened to me? Is this the aftermath of the crazy voice I heard? The Werewolf-vampire fight I saw? Or maybe it's because I jumped out of the car and didn't get proper treatment?A gentle knock on the door snapped me back to reality. "Keilah, can I come in?" It was the old woman. I hesitated but then nodded, even though she couldn't see me. "Yes, come in."The door opened, and her concerned face appeared. She hurried to my side, her eyes scanning me with worry. "How are you feeling, dear?""A bit better. Just... tired and nauseous."She placed a comforting hand on my shoulder, guiding me gently but firmly away from the sink. "Come on, let's get you back to bed," she said softly.I nodded, leaning on her

RALPHI walked with the council members toward the grand hall, the weight of my thoughts pressing down on me. My grip tightened on Keilah’s hand before I let her go, the memory of her unsettled eyes lingering in my mind. The council's compound loomed before me, a stark reminder of the power they held over us. Each step echoed with the authority they wielded, and I knew that what awaited inside would be no small matter.As we entered the hall, the murmurs of gathered Alphas from different packs filled the air. Jeffrey, the top council leader, seated at a long, imposing table, turned their attention to me. My eyes scanned the room, noting the presence of Ellena, the most powerful witch of all time. She belonged exclusively to the council and only appeared when there was a significant threat to the werewolves. My heart began to throb against my chest, wondering what dire issue had brought her here. The fact that they had summoned me with Keilah made my heart thunder even harder. I turne
