All Chapters of THE ALPHA'S FORBIDDEN MATE : Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Xander's povAfter Ava's outburst in the council's chamber there has been a sudden silence in the pack as everyone was still reeling from the shock of her revelation.I had heard some rumours about a little uprising growing not only in blackthorn but in the other packs as well. I would have to figure them out later.Right now we're still rebuilding the castle. But as we worked to med everything that has been destroyed, something kept bothering me. Like I was forgetting something important.I tried to remember what it was but couldn't. I tried shaking off the feeling but it kept disturbing me, that something had been left unfinished.One day, it hit me. Like a cold slap to my face.The rogues we had captured.They had been rotting in the dungeons, forgotten, since they had been captured during the ambush weeks ago and more had been captured during the castle attacks. We had more than enough to interrogate. Due to all the chaos, I had completely forgotten.Finally, I had a means of gett

Xander's povThe pool was small enough to indicate that it wasn't a fatal wound but it was enough to make my stomach drop.Her scent was all around it so there was no denying it.I scanned the area looking for any trace of Lyra or Magnus then I spotted an arrow in a tree with a note at its tip.I snatched it off, hands trembling with barely controlled rage.“If you want her back, come find me. But be quick, Xander. She’s running out of time.”Magnus.A growl escaped me as rage as hot as kava coursed through me.Roman dropped to his knees near the pool of blood. His face filled with fear, sadness and anger.Yes, she was my sister as well but she was his twin. Always by his side since they were in our mother's womb. They were one soul in two bodies.I felt a pang in my chest as I remembered my mother. I had vowed to protect her babies and now, one had been taken from under my nose because I had been too occupied to keep an eye on them. I felt like a failure.“They took her,” Rowan whisp

Xander's pov“Talk,” I ordered, my voice hoarse from the strain I put on it barking out orders everyday.Kael responded immediately. “One of our scouts reported sighting some movement near the abandoned ruins at the edge of shadowfang territory so it had been overlooked for years. It has never been reported as rogue territory but upon closer look it seemed heavily guarded so it has to mean something.”My heart raced.Finally, A lead.A real one.Without another word, I adjusted my clothes and walked out of the office.This time, we’d bring Lyra home.Or die trying.*****The rogues have always found a way to outsmart us. After telling Rowan and Ava the latest news, I returned to my office to make some final preparations before we headed out.I stood by my window, staring out unto the pack lands. I hated how much destruction the rogues had made in such little time, how they caught us off guard. How we let our guards down and the once undefeatable and formidable blackthorn pack was use

Xander's pov“A map,” I muttered as I walked towards it.Ava was by my side, she reached out and traced the lines on it. “This could lead us to the main rebel stronghold.”But something was wrong. I slapped her hand away from it. “I'm sorry.” I didn't mean to slap her hand but I had to react quickly.The map was moving, shadows like living… things.“Zerathos’s magic.” Ava whispered, eyes widening.I clenched my fists. Of course.We had Lyra back.Magnus was dead.But the main problem was still at large.****We were in the war room yet again. We had spent a week helping Lyra recover and trying to decipher the map whilst learning as much as we can about the weapons.We had a crucial piece— the map, yet we couldn't understand it. My frustration was beginning to ile up. Kael had called for this meeting today, he said he had found out something. Thankfully, he wasn't badly injured from the blast. It took him two days to recover— he still had a couple of bruises, but I was thankful that he

XANDER'S POVWe had decided to pay Rainville pack a visit. They have the best healers, blessed by the moon goddess herself. They would be able to help us find a cure for the effect of the shadow forged blade.There are ten packs in lycara, each having their own specialty. Rainville are known for their unmatched healing abilities, Thornspike is good at setting traps and defenses, Ashville makes bombs, iron claw are blacksmiths that makes most of our weapons, wild heart tame animals and distribute meat to cold packs like silverclaw when their forest lacks animals due to the cold, blood moon have fierce— almost wild warrior, nightshade handle potions and poison, stormfang- navigate the sea, silverclaw have elite tracker's that work well in cold regions then blackthorn governs it all.The journey to rainville pack was exhausting and not because of the distance, but because of the uncertainty that was growing in me. My pack members were slowly dying because their wounds wouldn't heal and I
