All Chapters of The Alpha's True Love: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

LukeThere is a lot of pressure on me to find my mate from the very moment I turn eighteen, but I’ve never really been worried. My parents only met later in their lives and I believe that I will meet my mate when the time is right.I know that she isn’t in our pack. It’s sad because that would mean taking a girl away from her family, but I made sure to check every single and available female during the pack run. Besides, legend has it that you can smell your mate, and I haven’t smelled anything different.I sit down behind the desk I saw my father working at for so long, and it just feels weird. I guess I will get used to it in time. I’ve been training as alpha for a while. But actually, going through the loyalty ceremony and now sitting in the office makes it really sink in.AliceStanding on the porch, I look out at the rain. I was really looking forward to my birthday. Most importantly, I was looking forward to my father announcing that I would be taking over from him as the pack b

LukeMy first thought when I heard what the council were planning was that they couldn’t have come up with a more ridiculous idea, but when I saw the evidence, I understood why they were planning to do it. All around the world, packs were reporting what I thought was pure fiction at first.That was until I saw the actual proof. Something had gone very wrong with our belief that the moon goddess was sending us our destined mates. It seems that belief created creatures that only half shifted. Pictures showed monsters of all ages, and according to reports, they were all feral.It is not just a sad state, but also a dangerous one. With those many possibilities out in the world, there is a very real chance that humans can find out about us and their next step would be to round all of us up and experiment on us.I was quickly convinced that the ridiculous plan might just work, and as I study myself in the mirror, I prepare for what will probably be the weirdest day of my entire life. Each pa

Alice“So, if you don’t believe what the council believes, what do you think is causing those awful things to happen?” I notice his eyes glaze over, and I am sure he just mind linked with one of his pack. Maybe even all of them.“I’m not sure, but I just can’t imagine love doing that. Maybe a spell or maybe it is something scientific. If you think about it, not all destined mates get mated. Some choose their mates.” He shrugs and when he smiles, I notice the slight dimple in his one cheek.“How long do you think it will take before we know more?” It astonishes me that he is so open with me about everything. Especially after the way the council treated all the girls when we left home. That makes me wonder how many of the girls on the bus will ever find out the truth.“I’m not sure. They say they have a team working through the data, but my experience has been that they act before they have all the facts, and then it takes them forever to gather all the facts.” He sighs, stuffing his ha

AliceAfter extensive inspections, the council have no alternative but to agree. Luke and his pack are given the necessary approval to start digging into the data of what might be causing this awful thing that is happening to our kind.He is also given permission that I can stay. It is the first I hear about it, but apparently, the council also decided that should two wolves be destined mates, they are meant to be separated. The female is moved to another pack and that is that.In our case, Luke simply refused, and now that order from the council is also being put on hold. The couples will be allowed to spend time together, but nobody is allowed to mark anyone until we have definitive proof that this awful thing isn’t happening because of the mate bond.Over the coming weeks, a couple of the girls that arrived with me find mates. Only one is a destined match, but the others are all chosen. Since nobody can really tell whether a couple is hiding the fact that they might be destined mat

AliceHow does he always seem to know just what to say?“And you will be fine with it if we don’t have children?” I study him carefully as he nods. He is being truthful. I can tell that much, but I can’t imagine an alpha being happy with not having an heir. I’m not sure about it, but a small voice tells me to just let go of everything I had been clinging to.I have to let go so that I can grab onto what could be a wonderful life. I take a deep breath and nod. I can try, can’t I? Fine, so the moment he marks me it will be forever, but it can’t be as bad as I think. My parents are happy. They were destined mates.“Is that a yes?” Luke looks shocked and I take a deep breath.“Well, if you are asking, then I guess so.” I shrug. He lets go looking dumbfounded and I burst out laughing. It is strange to see him completely shocked. It takes a moment for him to compose himself again, but when he does, he takes both my hands and smiles.“I want to say it, but I guess we should wait for the cere
