The moment she nodded, I didn’t waste another second. Her scent hit me the moment I leaned closer—blood, smoke, and something else… something warm and unfamiliar. My wolf stirred restlessly inside me.
Mate.
The word echoed faintly in my mind, but I forced it down immediately. This wasn’t the time to think about that.
Right now, she is bleeding.
Badly.
I slid one arm under her shoulders and the other beneath her knees, lifting her carefully from the cold ground. She tensed for a moment, clearly not used to being helped.
“Relax,” I muttered quietly. “You’re going to make it worse.”
She didn’t respond, but I could feel how weak she had become. A few minutes ago she had been fighting like hell against those panther shifters. For someone this injured… She was unbelievably stubborn.
My eyes scanned the street once more. The panthers I hadn’t killed had already fled. Cowards.
Good.
I carried her to my SUV parked across the road and opened the passenger door with my elbow before gently placing her inside.
She winced when her back touched the seat.
“Hold on,” I said, shutting the door quickly before moving to the driver’s side.
The engine roared to life, and I sped off down the empty road.
The entire ride was silent except for her uneven breathing. I glanced at her briefly.
She looked pale… but her eyes were still alert.
“You’re lucky,” I said after a moment.
She let out a weak scoff. “Lucky? I nearly died.”
“If I hadn’t come back, you would have.”
Her eyes shifted toward me.
“…Why did you come back?”
The question hung in the air.
I tightened my grip on the steering wheel.
“Something didn’t feel right,” I said simply.
That wasn’t the full truth.
The truth was my wolf refused to leave town the moment we saw her earlier in the bar.
But I wasn’t ready to explain that.
Not yet. After several minutes of driving, the road changed from pavement to gravel as we entered the forest surrounding pack territory.
Tall trees lined both sides of the road, their shadows stretching across the headlights.
The forest sang beneath as I approached the enormous forest cabin.
Finally, Aria’s cabin came into view. I stopped the car and quickly got out before opening her door again.
“Can you walk?” I asked.
She tried to push herself up.
The moment she did, her body nearly collapsed.
I caught her instantly.
“Yeah,” I said dryly. “That’s what I thought.”
Before she could protest again, I lifted her into my arms and carried her toward the wooden cabin. My heart was pounding as I carried her close to my chest; she looked so fragile. The scent of herbs and smoke drifted through the air.
I kicked the door open.
“Aria!” I called.
A moment later the old healer stepped out from the back room, adjusting the glasses on her nose.
Her sharp gaze immediately landed on the woman in my arms.
“Well,” he sighed. “Looks like trouble found you again, Beta.”
“She was attacked by panther shifters,” I said. “She’s losing blood.”
Aria nodded toward the bed.
“Lay her down.”
I walked over and gently placed her on the mattress.
The moment she settled, she exhaled softly in relief.
Aria immediately began examining her injuries.
“Hmm…” he murmured. “Bruised ribs. Deep claw wounds. Head injury.”
He glanced at me.
“She’s lucky you brought her when you did.”
“I know.”
Aria began mixing crushed herbs and oils together. The room filled with the strong scent of lavender and sage.
While he worked, I leaned against the wall, watching.
She noticed.
Her eyes met mine.
For a moment neither of us spoke.
Then she cleared her throat slightly.
“Hey…”
I straightened up.
“What?”
Her voice was quieter now.
“…Thanks.”
I frowned slightly.
“For what?”
“For saving me back there,” she said. “Those panthers would’ve finished me.”
She paused before adding,
“I’m not exactly used to people stepping in to help me.”
I studied her face for a moment.
Strong.
Stubborn.
Dangerous.
Yet somehow… fragile right now.
“You handled yourself pretty well,” I admitted. “Most people wouldn’t survive five minutes against that many panthers.”
She smirked faintly despite the pain.
“Good to know I impressed the Beta wolf.”
Rowan chuckled softly from across the room.
“Impressed or not, she still needs healing,” the old man said while applying the herbal paste to her wounds.
She stares slightly but makes no response.
I crossed my arms, still watching.
“What is your name?” I demanded.
Her brows knit in confusion. "Selin," she responded.
I turned my head slightly, making a nod.
“I will be right back. " I told Aria
Moments later. …………………………………
I entered the room holding some blueberries with milk as I approached where Selin was lying.
"Here, I bought you some snacks; make sure you eat them. You need strength," I told her.
She winced slightly but stayed quiet. All she did was stare.
I crossed my arms, leaning against the door, still watching. And for the first time that night, my wolf settled.
Because somehow…
Bringing her here felt like the right thing to do.
I thought.

My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 61: The Epilogue of What Survived
Louve POVSix months later. The peace held.Everything was alright, but not perfect. Neither is anyone. Peace never held perfectly, because peace between people who had histories was a living thing that required maintenance and occasional renegotiation and the willingness to be uncomfortable when old wounds got pressed. Alexander and Lynx still had difficult conversations. There were still days when the border felt like a border rather than a line on a map that both packs agreed to cross freely. But it held. Everyone tried to understand one another in the way they could. And that was enough. Kael's documentation project had been formalized through the neutral archive and was, under the agreed constraints, something I had found myself tentatively interested in. The ability that kept surfacing in my hands had become less alarming now, more familiar, something I was learning the shape of rather than being surprised by, and was apparently significant enough to Kael's research that he had
My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 61: What Was Left
Selin POV The day I went to the hospital to see the baby was the first time in four months that all of us were in the same room together. Me and Austin. Louve and Lynx. Alexander and his wife, who I was only now fully meeting and discovering was significantly more interesting than the formal occasions had suggested. Odin, who had apparently decided that hovering in doorways was his preferred mode of participating in family events. Rosa, who had strong opinions about hospital cafeteria food and expressed them to anyone who would listen. What a sweet girl she is. She had been talking more than before ever since the baby arrived.Lynx's mother had come two days earlier. A woman who reminded me of Lynx in her stillness and her eyes, and who had looked at me across the room and said, simply. "You're Selin." It was recognition. "He mentioned you," she said.I had looked at Austin. Trying to believe what his mother had said."I may have told her about you," he said."When?" I asked. Raising
My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 60: Morning
Selin POV The news moved through the house before sunrise. Not because anyone announced it. Augusta was discreet, but because houses knew things. Especially houses full of wolves who were attuned to shifts in the atmosphere of the spaces they inhabited. Odin appeared in the doorway at five-thirty. He stood there for a moment. I looked at Lynx. And Lynx looked back at me. I looked at the small person in my arms.He said nothing for a long moment.Then… "Your mother is going to want to be called.""I know," Lynx said."Both mothers," Odin said, looking at me. "Ours is…" He stopped. Then he spoke again. "She's in good health. She's been asking."I looked at him."Tell her she can come," I said. "It's time for both family pack to receive this good news. It sure is."Odin nodded. He looked at the small person one more time. Something moved across his face that he quickly managed into his normal expression."Congratulations," he said. His voice were precise and genuine. He left.Alexander
My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 59: The Night the Baby Arrived
Louve POV It was a Tuesday. The full moon glowed brightly above the sky. And it was three in the morning. The house was completely quiet. The kind of deep-night quiet that made every sound feel enormous. The air was cool and the wind in the old trees, the distant patrol movement, the creak of the settling building. I was awake before it was obvious I needed to be. My wolf was simply awake. It was alert and certain. I lay there for approximately four minutes before I accepted the information, then I sat up and I said…"Lynx."He was already awake. He had, I suspected, been watching the ceiling for a similar amount of time for similar reasons."Yes," he said."I think we need Augusta."He was out of bed before I finished the sentence.“Is it what I think it is,” he asked. And I nodded immediately.The next several hours were not what I had expected and simultaneously exactly what I should have expected. Augusta was calm and efficient and treated the entire event with the professional n
My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 58: The War That Didn't Happen
Odin POVThe formal peace terms were signed three weeks after the Blackthorn Crossing.Both packs. Both Alphas. Alexander and Lynx seated across a table in the neutral district with the archivist as witness, and Odin and Austin flanking their respective Alpha. It was not a dramatic occasion. There were no speeches and no declarations. Two men who had come to understand that the thing they had been fighting over was not the thing they'd been told it was sat across a table and put their names to something that said: this stops here.Alexander had been calm throughout. Entirely, unusually, disconcertingly calm. And this, everyone was aware that it was neutral. Afterward, when it was done and signed and witnessed and the archivist was sealing the documents, Alexander had looked at Lynx across the table."My sister is going to name the child whatever she wants," he said."Obviously," Lynx replied. “Without a doubt.” "I'm telling you in advance so you don't have expectations.""I have exac
My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 57: The Child Who Called Her Mom
Louve POVRosa had been told the way you told children true things. Which was meant to be simply, directly, and without dressing it up in words too large for a ten-year-old to hold. She was not my biological daughter. I had told her this clearly, sitting across from her in the small sitting room in the east wing with afternoon light coming through the windows. We had gone through what was known: her parents, who had died in ways we were still piecing together. The question of why she had crossed my path. The fact that we didn't yet know whether her appearance in my life was accidental or directed. She had listened with the particular attention that children gave things when they could tell the adults were being fully honest with them.Then she had said, "But you're still my mom."I knew deep down in my heart that it wasn't a question, neither was it curiosity. But as a statement of something she had already decided. I had looked at her for a long moment."Yes," I had said. "If you wan

Louve POV I groaned as the harsh rays of sunlight seeped through my closed eyes, forcing me to roll sideways. My eyes fluttered open slowly. As soon as I flapped my eyes open, for a moment I didn't remember where I was.Then the scent reached me.Rosemary…. And himMy heart skipped.I turned my he
My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 3 — My Return: Her Touch
Lynx POVI am fully aware that my coming back would be disastrous. It feels so good to be around, but something seems to have changed, I noticed as I stepped out of the car and walked towards the building. My family was expecting my arrival, as they told the driver to come get me. But I decided to
My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 2: The Hero
Selin POVAfter the man left, I had this strange feeling that seemed unexplainable; I felt a bit unsettled. Apart from how I was feeling, I was able to discover that they are wolf shifters.At first sight, I perceived something to be fishy. Not fully sure, I decided to find out some information abo
My Secret Alpha Mate Chapter 1: The name that should have stayed buried
𝐋𝐎𝐔𝐕𝐄'𝐒 𝐏𝐎𝐕Some names are not meant to be spoken. Not allowed. Not in whispers. Not even in memory.Yet his name had a way of finding me, slipping past every wall I had built, settling deep beneath my skin like a scar that refused to fade away.Lynx.I stiffened, my grip tightening around
