All Chapters of Alpha's Betrayal, Luna's Revenge: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Samantha’s POV Zola’s howls turned to my screams as my bones shifted. I pulled my knees to my chest and rocked. Closing my eyes and trying to breathe through the pain. The sound of the children whimpering distracted me a little.Eventually, I looked at the two small bodies as their hooded heads touched each other, possibly for reassurance. “Your pain won’t be going away in a hurry,” Zola said sadly, urging me to go to them. Over the year since we have been together. Zola and I disagreed on many things, but we were the most excited about motherhood. The unconditional bond between mother and child. These may not be my children, but what if they were? I would hope someone would help them.I crawled on all fours toward them, knowing that it was the only thing I could do for them. I could set them free, just like Garth did for me. I started crying, knowing that no matter how bad the past 24 hours had been for me. It was worse for him.I yanked the knot in the rope around the girl’s ankle.

Ellie’s POV How dare William raise his voice in my clinic, especially while I am treating his patient? Kiki snarled at his aggressive tone. But we both knew he wasn’t a threat to me. Despite what I want to say, I need to get the information I want before I tell him what I think of his disgusting behavior. I continued with the task at hand, cannulating the girl. My hand shook a little as I tied the tourniquet around her arm. I am not used to doing this to humans. If anything, it should be easier. She is not covered in fur. A vein is a vein, Ellie. I scolded myself for hesitating in front of William. “John said the children had been found. How are they doing?” I asked as I cleaned her arm. I heard William breathing through his nose as he picked up the vials of ketamine that I strategically placed on the plastic tray. “They’re on the way to my hospital. The authorities have informed their parents.” He informed me. William grabbed my arm. “Now, what did you do to her?” I pulled my

Sam’s POV “Zola.” I wanted to hear her familiar voice before I opened my eyes. Before I faced reality, “Zola, are u there?” I called out again, hoping I wasn’t alone. I never want to be without her again. Zola didn’t respond, but I could hear her whimpering. After coaxing her to speak to me, her words were not what I expected. “He intended to kill us,” she said eventually. I quickly understood why she was upset. Zola will only ever have one mate, her one true love. He is supposed to love her unconditionally. I grew to love Axel, but it was nothing compared to the love she had for Gunner. She was processing the fact that despite their love, Gunner was prepared to kill her and kill anyone that stood in the way of him doing so.I have heard of people getting second-chance mates, but that union has to come from the goddess herself, and I’m not sure if I believe in her anymore. Because she sure as hell doesn’t believe in me. We could always take a chosen mate if Zola wanted to. But I am n

Ellie’s POV “I woke up from a coma when I was about 7 years old. I didn’t know my name or where I lived. William told me I had amnesia. He told me my memories would eventually return. In the meantime, as I was medically stable, I had nowhere to go. I was placed in a group home.” I told Sam as she slurped on her milkshake. “Being the new kid, I got bullied nonstop. They made me sleep with the dogs in the kennel. As I stunk like a dog in the morning, the kids called me ‘smelly Ellie’, since I didn’t have a name. But I didn’t care, as I knew that one day my parents would come for me.” I took a deep breath. “Days turned to months and the only memory that returned was one of a pair of boys promising to take care of me. Despite the police searches, no one ever came to claim me.”“Oh, Ellie, I’m so sorry,” Sam said sympathetically. But I don’t need it.“I’m not. Mrs Fletcher, the baker, used to stop by with treats and must have seen how I was treated. The first day I was put up for adoption

Ellie’s POV John looked at me curiously as I approached the front desk of the police station. “How can I help you, Ellie?” He inquired.“I need to inform you of a case of animal cruelty.” John lifted his pen, ready to take down some basic details. As he began asking me questions, the door opened behind me.“I can’t believe you came,” Noddy spoke from behind me. “I want to file an assault charge against that bitch. She broke my nose,” he shouted over me. John looked up at his clipboard, giving me a questioning look.“I will be with you in a minute, Noddy. Wait your turn,” John said before looking at me. “Now, what were you telling me about Ellie?”“A German shepherd was brought to my clinic. He had been bound and left to die.” I told John. Noddy went quiet. John won’t ask any further questions. He is just taking the most basic of details from me. But I want Noddy to be scared because he should be. Noddy only came to town a few years ago.I have seen Dastin a few times, which is how I
