• Twice Fated   Chapter 96: Rick's POV

  Rick's POVThere was tension in the hall as the guards moved toward us, their faces stern. They pulled Georgina from me, leading her toward the middle of the hall where the council members and other pack members waited. I could sense the weight of their eyes, a blend of curiosity and fear, as I readied myself to make my announcement."I've made up my mind," I informed her, my voice cold and firm."Stop, Rick, darling, what are you doing?" Georgina stuttered, her voice shaking with terror. I could see the fear spreading in her eyes, and it just made me more determined."Something that I should have done Months ago: turning you down," I told her, my voice cold as I loomed over her."No! No, you can't!" she exclaimed, stepping back from me, horror written on her face."I'm begging you, don't do this," she begged, but it was too late. I had already started the ritual that would cut our connection."I, Rick Beck, Alpha of the River Bed Pack, reject you, Georgina Reid, and banish you from m

• Twice Fated   Chapter 95: Georgina's POV

  Georgina's POVAs soon as I stepped into my room, I slammed the door shut and yanked out my phone. My fingers trembled as I dialed Alpha Alfred’s number.He answered on the second ring. “What is it?”“Alpha…” I swallowed hard. “Bad news. Alpha Rick kicked me out of the house. Tomorrow, I’m being transferred to another place.”There was a long pause on the other end. When he spoke again, his voice was low, dangerous. “So you can’t complete your mission anymore? Do you even understand what happens if you fail?”“I know,” I whispered, sinking onto the edge of the bed. “I’ve tried everything, Alpha. Ever since Bella disappeared, it's been harder to slip Rick even a drop of the potion. Everything’s been spiraling out of control.”I bit down on my thumbnail, the familiar sting grounding me in the chaos of my thoughts. “But I managed, for a while.” I stayed here, I kept going. For two whole months, I kept the most powerful Alpha in the world under my control. Two months!At first, the potio

• Twice Fated   Chapter 94: A Hole in my Chest

  Rick’s POVI stood at the entrance of the packhouse, surrounded by darkness. The night air was sharp, cold, but something inside me burned. I waited, hoping Bella would return.It was strange. Whenever Georgina wasn’t around, my heart would ache for Bella, my Luna, my wife, the mother of my children. But the moment Georgina stepped into view, I’d feel torn, drawn to her instead. It made no sense, and yet it kept happening.Now, everything had spiraled out of control. Bella was gone. My children gone. And the worst part? I let this happen. I let Georgina near my family. The same woman who once hurt Bella deeply. And now, I stood by and let her hurt Bella again. Worse, I became part of that pain. I hurt her and I did nothing to stop it.I clenched my fists as a soldier approached. He looked exhausted, dirt smeared across his uniform.“Alpha,” he said, his voice low, “today’s search is over. We didn’t find the Luna and the two young princes.”Rage ignited in me like wildfire.I roared, t

• Twice Fated   Chapter 93: A New Beginning

  Chapter 93: A New BeginningThe Riverbed Pack had given me the best thing that ever happened to me. It was here that I had found my mate, and it was here that I had bled for him. Every memory, good or bad, had molded me into who I was today. And now, I was leaving. I didn't know if I was ever going back. The prospect hung in my chest, but I continued running on, pushing aside the pain in my heart for my children's sake. After running for two hours at last reached the cars. They had taken three cars and a big truck, which were all parked and in place. We boarded the cars while the warriors boarded the big truck. And then we traveled for nearly six hours before reaching the territory of the Night Walker Pack. When we got there, my mom was stuck, utterly dumbfounded to find us standing on the door. Her eyes scanned mine for explanations, but I had none to provide, not then. That night, after I had tucked my children into bed and ensured they were sleeping soundly, I sat down with my

• Twice Fated   Chapter 92: The Choice

  I rushed towards the room of my children, my heart pounding harder with each step. Terror gripped me, squeezing with every intake of breath. The far-off sound of growls, snarls, and the unmistakable clang of metal hung in the air—the battle had already commenced.My head was spinning, frantically trying to come up with a plan. I had to get my children out of here, into a safe place where the fight couldn't find them. Protecting my children was all I could think of now. I couldn't let them be caught up in all of this mayhem.As I opened the door and spotted their terrified faces, I realized I didn't have a moment to lose."Mommy, what's happening?" Edsel's little voice cut through the pandemonium, shaking with terror.I managed a gentle smile, though my heart pounded and my mind reeled in desperation. I bent down next to them, stroking the kids hair with one hand, struggling to keep both of us calm."Everything will be all right, sweetie," I breathed, my voice soft but strained. "I nee

• Twice Fated   Chapter 91: Shattered Bonds

  Bella POV"You're still here!" I snapped, my eyes flashing at Georgina, my eyes falling to her hand, the same hand that was clinging tightly to Rick's arm.Georgina's head turned slowly to me, her face serene but her tone biting."I should be asking you that," she said coldly. "Why are you still here?"I stood up straight, raising my chin. "Because I am the Luna!" I spat, my voice cutting the air.I was enraged inside as I addressed the guards, not even trying to cover the commanding tone in my voice."Guards! Take this woman away. Now."The guards rushed, grabbing Georgina by the arms, pulling her towards the door. For an instant, I thought it was over -- that the nightmare would end then.But then came Rick's voice, shattering the instant like a stone against glass."Georgina will remain."The room descended into a choking, killer quiet. My head snapped in his direction, my breath ragged in my throat. Blistering, scalding tears brimmed in my eyes as his icy, lashing gaze traveled around the
