Amelia’s POV

The morning came so swiftly, I felt like I hadn't had any sleep. Her voice brought me up from my sleep.

“Rise and shine, you have to start getting ready.”

“Did he tell you to do this too?”

“No, but he might have. He told me to get you ready by sunset today.”

“I see.”

“Come on, you’ll be fine.” She encouraged me like I had last night. Cassie’s presence has given me a lot of risen feelings to stay and get used to the pack house interests. I might have learnt a thing or two, like giggling and ignoring the crippled arrogance.

We rode through the dark cold night, my face felt so pale and argued. I watched the silence fading with Ethan’s voice over my head.

“Are you okay?” His face looked so questioning and quite different from the real question he asked me. I just sniffed the blunt air and ignored him like he had ignored me all through. I’m not suffering that hard,

I just couldn’t compare the hard feelings I’ll get if I was actually back at home. Ethan turned back and looked up at Damien, whose eyes were stoned and focused on the book he was reading.

“What is he reading?” I whispered right beside Ethan. He turned his face back at me.

“I don’t know, ask him.”

“Don’t even try.” Damien had responded even before I stood a chance to ask a thing

I sat back gently and smart.

A tense atmosphere, like an unwanted reunion. It wasn’t the most blissful journey I’ve been on. Well, I wouldn’t want to talk about my run away from home and the days alone in the forest.

“Let’s rest a bit, I need the night breeze.” Damien’s cold voice interrupted my thoughts.

“Come, I’ll help you.” One of them offered a hand for me to alight. He looked straight at me, and I looked away.

“Help her if you will, stop staring firmly at her.” A familiar voice said almost giving an order like Damien.

I quickly got down on my own, without his help. Everyone had gone different ways in the forest, camping as if a bonfire. My eyes caught the figure of the young werewolf that offered me a hand earlier. He seemed unanswered to, a same fit of Cassie and I couldn’t imagine the sight of that.

“Who are you?” I asked without thinking. He looked at me and laughed out loud.

“So sorry about his behavior.”

“Who?” My eyes asking questions over again like, ‘that wasn’t the answer I expected’.

“I’m Frank, the alpha’s beta, one of them to be precise.”

“And what about Ethan?” My voice thrilled in disbelief, he’s the strongest Alpha, why would he need so much betas?

“He’s the closest to the Alpha. I wasn’t expecting that question, anyway.” He gave me a funny look, and I tried to smile, it just didn’t work out well for me as I burst out in laughter.

“Seems you guys are having fun.” Another young man’s voice right behind us spoke as I could feel his presence close to us, of course, he was close to us.

“Yeah, wanna join in?” Frank asked.

“With pleasure, frank.”

“He’s Danny, but we call him the pack’s cupid.” Frank had exposed Danny’s weakness.

“You know, one time he almost got himself killed because of love. Sadly, the girl was human and was a spy. If the Alpha had known they were together…..”

Danny didn’t let Frank complete his words before he landed a faint punch on his shoulder. Frank winced in a bit of pain, and they both laughed out loud. I watched them both play heartily.

Damien’s POV

“You shouldn’t have brought her along.” Ethan said in a displeasing tone.

“I see no reason why I shouldn’t.”

“The silver frost had shut down every one of their attacks, I can’t tell why.”

“Why? You’ve been busy telling me what to do ever since she arrived.”

“I’m sorry, but you seem lost every time we talk about her. The last time, it was a dream you almost tore out from.”

“Don’t lecture me, Ethan.”

“I’m not, just trying to look out for you.”

“Yeah, look out for me and fight the silver frost for killing your father. Remember I lost Keila and my father in the same fight?”

“Yes, you did, and didn’t bother to fight back for their lives since Amelia arrived.”

Ethan kept on pressurizing me with Amelia’s presence. I felt like I can disengage from the unnecessary thoughts I’ve been going on with her being around.

“Let’s make sure to go back home safe after this feast. The silver frost pack will pay for what they did.”

“Here I thought I was the only one having a sense of returning to the old days.”

I suddenly pulled out a smile at the tone of his words. Ethan looked at me in disbelief, I only felt comfortable with him around until Amelia arrived bearing the same scent as it was so difficult to have a different smell. Ethan has been jealous since then and wants me to focus on planning a fight against the silver frost.

“If my mum calls for a feast, I really cannot predict what she’s up to. She refused to come into the pack since father died.”

“Right. Who knows? She might just need to see you after these long years.”

“Suddenly, you think?“

“Well, she’s growing just like you.” Ethan paused. “Is that why you asked her to come along?”

“Not all, I just needed to make sure she’ll be okay.”

“If you say so.”

I could hear the boys giggle so hard. Ethan and I stood up and followed the sound, I was surprised at the feminine voice I heard. It was drawing and calling. I didn’t know why I wasn’t annoyed, I just had a sense of belonging.

We saw them all gathered around a fire, with Amelia in their midst. I didn’t know what to think, I just looked at Ethan who looked clueless also. The rustle of the leaves and the cold wind that blew the fire bolder across our face gave them a sense of our presence.

They all stood up immediately and moved closer to us. Frank was the first person to speak.

“We didn’t think you might want to join us, Alpha.” He said with his head low.

“It’s fine, you can go on with the fun, leave some space till we get to our destination. And her? No harm must come to her.”

I turned back to Ethan, who just stood lifeless like a statue and one with a broken rib.

“You don’t think she’s enchanting too right?” I whispered to Ethan. “I mean, she’s acting just like Keila.”

“Come on Damien, Keila again?”

“Can’t you see it?”

“All I can see is your infatuation with this girl.”

“I’m just amazed being able to smell her and her scent as strong and the same as Keila's“

“Well, you could say the moon goddess gave you Keila back.” “Are you going to accept her?” Ethan asked with a curious look.

  • Alpha's Second Chance Mate   Chapter 30

    Amelia's PovI watched Damien closely, my heart racing as I saw the glow in his eyes slowly calm again. His breathing became more regular, and the tension in the room lifted slightly. The way his gaze softened almost made me forget the chaos that had just unfolded. But we both know that couldn't happen. He stood up as if nothing had happened, like he hadn't just nearly lost control, like I hadn't nearly lost him. My heart was beating fast in my chest, and I felt my anger bubbling up. "Damien!" I couldn’t hold it in anymore. "Why are you acting like nothing happened?” I asked, my anger was clear. “I'm sure Ethan has packed the necessary things. And has Cassie gotten you ready? You should know we are leaving.” He said, moving round the room, his eyes moved all through the parts of the room and I watched him panic. “What are you doing? Why are you just ignoring everything? You can’t just knock out like that and expect me to forget it! What the hell is going on with you?" I was so

  • Alpha's Second Chance Mate   Chapter 29

    Amelia's Pov My hands were shaking as I helped Damien onto the bed. He was completely down and asleep, or so I thought. Blood soaked his clothes, the deep stains spreading across his chest, and I could only imagine how bad his wounds must be. His skin was pale, too pale. His breathing was shallow, and I had to remind myself that he was still alive, still here. I couldn’t lose him.Cassie stood in the corner of the room, her eyes wide, her body rigid. She looked almost... terrified, as if something far worse was on the horizon. But I didn’t have time to focus on her right now. I quickly unbuttoned his shirt, pulling it away from his body, trying to keep my hands steady as I cleaned him off. His body was still warm, but the blood that covered him made it feel like he was slipping away. I wiped away the stains as best I could, taking great care not to cause him any pain. He was unconscious, but I didn’t want to take any chances. The blood was drying fast, and I worked frantically,

  • Alpha's Second Chance Mate   Chapter 28

    Amelia's Pov I could feel Damien’s intense gaze on me, his dark eyes piercing through me as if he were trying to figure out what I was saying. He didn’t speak, but I could see the storm brewing inside of him. I had just told him that I didn’t want to become Luna, something I thought I meant at the time, but now, as I looked at him, I wasn’t so sure anymore.Before I could even process my own emotions, Ethan burst into the room, looking so sharp and frantic. “Sapphira’s gone,” he said, his words crashing into the silence.Damien’s face twisted in horror as he shot up from his seat, his body tense with panic. “What do you mean, gone?” he yelled, his voice filled with panic. “Why wasn’t she stopped?!” His words were laced with anger, his fists clenched as he stormed towards the door, shoving past the guards. His movements were wild, desperate, like a man unraveling before my eyes.I watched him in stunned silence as he slapped the guards’ faces, his actions harsh and without mercy. His

  • Alpha's Second Chance Mate   Chapter 27

    Sapphira’s PovI should have known it wouldn't be easy with Damien. I should have just killed her rather than take things easy with her. My heart hurt and I felt my gut screaming failure. The scenes came back in a flash and I yelled. “I'm not giving up on you, Amelia. We've started this, and we'll both end it.” I whispered in such despair. What could have been better than taking what I deserved? Kept and separated from the life I should own, only to come back and find it gifted to someone else. I couldn't stand living my life up to someone else's. Especially not Amelia, she had everything, I didn't even get a mate, and no one knew I was part of the silver moon pack. Staring at the walls that I was locked up in, I should have known Damien wouldn’t take things lightly. I should have planned better. I should have had a backup escape route. But no, I was too caught up in my own arrogance, thinking I could handle him, thinking I could break Amelia before he even had the chance to strik

  • Alpha's Second Chance Mate   Chapter 26

    Amelia’s PovPain was the only thing I could feel, it hadn't been a while since my life had felt that. Damien never let that happen, with his fierce eye gaze and harsh words but love deep in his heart for me. I saw it, I saw his eyes, the care and the concern. I saw it all there, how did I miss that? If he truly loved me, I should have seen that properly. I did see it, but I didn't want to hurt myself. Everything just got too far as I've seen what I needed, to be strong. I groaned, my body trembling as I tried to lift my arms. My wrists burned from the silver chains, the cuts were deep and raw. My fingers fumbled with the dagger Damien had thrown to me, and my hands were slick with blood. Every movement sent a jolt of agony through my body, but I gritted my teeth, refusing to give up. If anything I needed to survive this and take back what I own."Come on," I muttered under my breath, trying to steady my shaking hands. With a sharp inhale, I tightened my grip and sawed at the r

  • Alpha's Second Chance Mate   Chapter 25

    Damien’s PovMy heart pounded as I stepped forward, my senses heightened, every instinct screaming that I was walking into a trap. And I was right. The moment my foot crossed the boundary, a surge of power shot up around me. A barrier. Before I could react, figures emerged from the darkness, their eyes glowed with malice. The forces of the Silver Frost Pack surrounded me in an instant, their weapons drawn, their snarls echoing in the cold night air. Amelia laid on the floor, her body limp, her face battered and bruised. Blood smeared her pale skin, and her wrists were bound tightly with silver chains, her breath coming in shallow gasps. She lifted her head weakly, her eyes finding mine, filled with desperation. "Damien…" she whispered. "Please… save me." A sharp pain tore through my chest at the sight of her so helpless. My hands clenched into fists. If only I had trained her longer. If only I had prepared her for the dangers that lurked outside the pack. She was strong, b
