Chapter 40: Walk in the moonlight
Moonlight filters in through the windows, bathing me in its blue hazy rays. After my confrontation with Nikolai and his mother, I was no use at training. Tank was trying to get me to protect my head, but instead of blocking, I tried to strike. Needless to say, Tank punched me right out of my own head, after which he promptly chewed me out and told me to walk it off and go get dinner. He canceled training for the rest of the evening.
So here I am, sitting exactly where I was hours ago, trying to wrap my head around the turns my life has taken. I’ve mourned the ‘what if’ regarding Nickolai. Then, I moved onto pondering the future I may or may not ever get with Sebastian, all sprinkled in with what will happen in this war and the nature of Luna Nikita’s relationship with Alden.
The only things I’ve settled on are that Luna Nikita is covering something from her past and she must be an old pack memb

Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 41: Friends first
A warm hand encases my upper arm gently and spins me around, and I’m tucked into a warm embrace. Sebastian folds around me like he was made to meld with my body, pulling me in, making me feel whole. And then I break. Out of obligation, he is once again helping me. Must we only ever have each other when we are in pain? Fuck, what I would give to be enough for someone. “Please come back to my room with me.” He whispers into my ear, his warm breath sends shivers down my spine. I shake my head no.“Birdie, please, I need you.” A sob wracks through me as I pull myself from his embrace, taking a step back and wrapping my arms around my middle. “But you don’t want me,” I remind him. “That’s not true.” He shakes his head, reaching out for me. “Sebastian, I can not handle this back-and-forth shit anymore.” I squeeze my middle tighter. “I know. I know! But fuck Birdie. I don’t know what to do. I’m trying to do what’s rig
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 42
~Sebastian~ “Seb,” Wren whispers from behind me. I force my eyes open and roll onto my back to see her standing at the side of her bed, dressed and ready for her training. “What time is it?” I rasp out groggily. My shirt sticks to my body that is covered in a thin layer of sweat. “Almost six. The others usually get up around seven, so it’s probably best if you sneak back to your room before I leave for my run.” She says as she reaches out and touches her chilled fingers to my forehead. The sparks chase away what remnants of a headache I didn’t know I had. I can’t help but sigh and close my eyes in relief. The bed dips beside me and my eyes open to see her crawling closer with worry on her brow. “I’m fine.” I try to reassure her, though my voice sounds anything but firm. “Yeah, well, as a proper friend, it’s my duty to tell you, you look like shit. You should go back to your bed and get some rest.” She grins at me as I grab her pillow and whack her upside the head with it. She fal
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 43: Phone calls and a Cryptic text
~Wren~ I should have called the moment I got the phone this morning. I was excited and craving a talk with dad, but now that I’ve spent the entire day stewing in the many ways the conversation could go, I’m finding it hard to hit the call button. What if he needs me and I can’t be there? What if he doesn’t answer or worse, what if something happened? Sweat covers my palms and I wipe them on my clean pajama pants with a puff of nervous breath. “I can do this. Just a simple ‘Hey dad, how are you?’ Easy. I got this.” My hands shake as I type in his phone number and hit the green phone icon connecting our lines. I jump with every trill of the line, each sound a reminder that he might not be there anymore. He could be dead for all I know. Tears crowd my eyes and I swallow the sting in my throat. “Hello?” an unfamiliar male voice answers the phone.
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 44: Any means necessary
When I wake up, I have more resolve. My head is clear of the emotions and what felt like a slap in the face from reality. I am finding it much easier to get caught up in the pack's safety I’m in and the comfort of my mate’s arms. Even if he won’t claim me yet and we are just… friends. I can’t allow myself to get distracted anymore. I need to push myself and focus on the important things. Saving my pack and the rebels. I grab my training gear and move to the bathroom, working out my new plan as I go through the daily motions. The first thing on the docket is getting packs to join me, sadly this is also the hardest thing on my list. I’m nothing more than a low-ranking wolf exiled from my pack for betraying them. This is why I have decided I need to travel back the way I came and seek the help of the rogues. They are the original rebels and where I technically belong with them. The biggest feat I
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 45: Consequences
~Sebastian~ Wren will most assuredly be the death of me. The moment her damn lips touched mine, there wasn’t a single person around us. I was locked in and ready to make her mine. Hell, if it hadn’t been for her using the element of surprise to flip me, I’m not sure I would have stopped at all. I’m sure I will have a jealous Nickolai coming at me soon. All the warriors witnessed our little sparring session on the pitch. Her tactics won’t go unmentioned. In fact, I would bet they will be all anyone talks about at dinner tonight. Tank thankfully steps in so I can watch her moves from an outside perspective, which is for the best since I’m sporting a raging hard-on that is not the easiest thing to hide in gym shorts. It does, however, help to quell my desire when I remind myself why I am here. I am here to determine if she is capable enough of handling herself on her own… Not that I really want her going on her own. Nor do I need to actually watch her. I know the answer, and it’s no.
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 46: Promise me
Well, there was no ‘calmly talking’. In fact, it’s been complete radio silence for three terrible fucking days. Wren continues to train and I’ve taken over in patrolling the border of the pack lands. I have tried every night to open her door, and each night she locks it in anticipation of my arrival. In passing, Wren will acknowledge my existence. Each nod in my direction is like a bolt of lightning striking hope in me, only to be shut down when I attempt to get back into our usual routine. I haven’t had a restful sleep since sleeping on my own. Nightmares plague my mind every time I drift off. The fear of where she is, what could happen when she is not within arm’s reach of me, has made me nearly kick her door down once or twice. My desire for her to be in my arms is now overshadowed by my unwavering need to see her every morning, to ensure that she is ok, even though logically I know she has
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 47: Crossing the line
~Wren~Time seems to slow down. The shock of Sebastian’s words, the weight of them crackle in the air surrounding us. My throat feels dry, and I’m unable to respond when he demands words from me. With a look of sheer determination and love, he gives my head a small shake, and the outside world comes crashing back.“Promise me!” His words are desperate and demanding as I shake my head in affirmation. A small growl leaves his lips and in the next moment, he is running towards Avi. One step, two steps, three thundering strides is all it takes for him to close the distance. I hear every sound, feel it as if it were made or spoken into my very ears. The sound of heavy breathing angered yelling and the muttering of confused border warriors.“Sebastian! Don’t” Nickolai roars
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 48: Reunited with Old friends
The second I hit the steps leading into the packhouse, Luna Nikita is rushing me with fury in her eyes. I suck in a deep breath of air, hoping to calm my nerves, but no such luck. They are as fried as the rest of me. I lost myself the second I realized it was Avi, the stark fear of watching him be tortured while no one did anything? A shiver runs down my spine just thinking about it.“You!” Luna Nikita sneers at me.Unphased, I sidestep her.“This will have to wait, Luna.”I assume my lack of manners pisses her off since her hand flies out and yanks on my forearm. I jolt forward, my hair cascading down around my face. Her grip tightens and I scowl at her hands, then bring my eyes to her.“I think not.”“Luna, I mean no disrespect, but if you don’t let me go, I can not be held accountable for the actions of my wolf.”
