Semua Bab THE OUTCAST’S ALPHA MATE: LOVE AND REDEMPTION: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Marian followed Nikal meekly, not saying a word.Once Byron had Gravan on a stretcher, Nikal had stared at her – black eyes in her father’s face.He had said nothing.Where her father treated Marian with a soft touch, Nikal did not.After a moment of looking Marian over, while Dinka cowered in the corner of her mind.Nikal had shifted into wolf form and ran to the edge of the pack grounds.==========Neither Gravan nor her father ever talked about what had happened to them that night.But Marian never stayed out again.Until she ran away on New Year’s Moon.Goddess! What did Dax do to my father?! She wailed in her heart.She ran, full speed, to her dorm.==========The Bloodrayne pack was also celebrating Christmas.Their Alpha, Alpha Tobias, was leading the festivities at his hall with great pomp and pageantry.Food was being served, wolves were dancin

Don’t cry!Reyland!Marian wanted to say all the words at the same time, but no sound could come out from her dry lips.Instead, she wailed in her mind as she stared weakly up at her giant.But Reyland was not crying.He just stared at her with damp, sorrow-filled eyes and a knotted brow.The silence expanded, then, Reyland inhaled.“I’m sorry,” he breathed; his voice low.“What…what for?” she whispered, barely able to form the words.“Everything that happened to you. To your father. Four years ago, and every day after that,” he replied, his voice heavy.He had not moved a muscle.He continued to sit as he had been when she woke, with two fingers resting beside his mouth.Similar to how he had sat just hours earlier when he had been talking to his father, back at his home in the woods.Marian recalled those moments as she

“The fallen princess did what?!” the Alpha of the Bloodrayne pack bellowed.“Yesterday, Alpha. The whole place was locked down. We couldn’t –”Tobias strode to the runner and picked him up by the throat, claws digging into his skin, choking him as he linked him in the mind space.There, he got all the information firsthand without waiting for the wolf to form his thoughts into words.He dropped him like a rag doll, coughing and wheezing, holding his bruised, bleeding neck. The runner remained on his knees, bowing to his Alpha.“If that is what I think it is, then the girl may be far more important than my little Alpha,” He murmured.“More important than Dax?” Misha, his son, crooned.“Now THAT is something indeed,” he said slyly.“You won’t understand,” Tobias spat.“Then explain it, Father,” Misha retorted flippantly.

Reyland continued. “So, what I need you to do, my princess, is find your wolf,” he encouraged her gently, his voice steady, confident.“She must be hiding; she must be scared. Call her to you. Tell her everything you know. Tell her what you don’t,” he elaborated calmly.“Your father will fill in the rest, but let him tell both of you. Okay?” he finished gently.Marian’s eyes dampened, and she swallowed.“Are you sure?” she asked softly.“Yes,” Reyland replied confidently.“No. I mean, are you for real?” she asked again, her voice trembling as her eyes filled.Reyland’s brow furrowed. “What do you mean?” he asked hesitantly, eyeing Marian again.“Am I…YOUR princess?” she whispered. Reyland blinked at her, then he inhaled sharply.His soft cheeks flushed as he glanced to the side.“YOU are n

His head began to bend backwards when Gravan’s voice came through.“You are our Alpha. The one true Alpha of Lightmoon. If you cannot control yourself, why expect your child to do better?” he said hoarsely, still kneeling upright on both knees, backing his mentor.Marian’s wide eyes snapped to her uncle.Gravan’s back and shoulders were straight as he turned, on his knees, to face her father.“If you want to help her, show her how it’s done,” the former Beta of Lightmoon demanded firmly, fearlessly to the morphing former Alpha.Gravan rose slowly, his eyes fixed on Corien.“Show her,” Gravan insisted, his voice low, forceful.Marian stared at her uncle, still slack-jawed.“Look to your father, princess. Look and focus,” he ordered her, his eyes still on his friend and mentor.“This is what happened to you. See it with your own eyes,” he g
