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

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.”
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 49: Meeting With the Alpha
~Sebastian~Nickolai’s knee has been bouncing from the moment I sat down. The relentless tapping and his clenched jaw give away not only his anger but his anxiety. He is worried about the outcome, not that I’m surprised. That’s who he is. When he cares, he cares fully. He glances my way for a minute with a sad frown before looking back at Alpha Jameson, who has yet to move.Alpha’s eyes are heavy with disappointment, but after a minute he leans back in his chair and rakes his hands through his hair, leaving it in complete disarray, and scrubs his face with his palm. He assesses me from his new sitting position before exhaling his breath.“Fucking hell, Seb.” He mutters. “I don’t even know where to start.”I watch him in silence. I know the honorable thing for me to do is beg for forgiveness, say it won’t happen again, and ask to be sent on the
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 50: Something to live for
~Wren~“I need to know more about Waylon and his hand in everything,” I say, dragging a chair over to the side of Avi’s bed once the healer leaves the room. His eyes droop sleepily, but he gives his head a rough shake and blinks a few times.“Uh. Well. I don’t really know much. Just that they wanted me executed after Freesa told them I was a part of your—let’s see, how did they phrase it?–‘Futile attempt to take over the pack’?” He smirks and I throw my head back, laughing.Yeah, I suppose the thought must have occurred to Alden that I would want to take over the pack. Why else would someone want to usurp him? He is so wrapped up in himself and his own jackass world that he can’t imagine how shitty it’s been for everyone else. Though it had to have pissed him off a little, knowing that the rebel cause was led by a young female werewolf
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 51: Meeting Michelle
After watching Seb leave with Ranger–yes, I watched him jog off until I couldn’t see him anymore. What kind of mate would I be if I didn’t stare at my man’s fabulous ass as he leaves me?—I found myself in search of food and something to bring back for Avi to eat when he wakes up.I swear the kitchen in this packhouse has secret faeries who are incapable of letting a single item be out of stock. I grab a few packets of muffins, cheese, and jerky sticks and decide that maybe a banana or five will be good for my sore muscles. Tank told me it helps with lactic acid build-up. This means nothing to me, but I nodded my head like I was smart and educated, even though I never attended school beyond middle school.I can feel a presence watching me, another sense I developed as a kid. Though I can’t place the scent, the hint of jasmine and citrus dance around me. I find it oddly calming. Like my frayed ne
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 52: Good Enough
~Sebastian~Apparently, Nickolai decided he needed to escort us to the border. Normally I would be fine with such a situation, but with his cold shoulder and Ranger looking between the two of us like we are in a lovers’ quarrel, I’m over it. I have received my punishment with dignity and honor, knowing full well this could easily turn into a death sentence. His cold shoulder when he insisted on coming is frustrating.“Speak your mind Nickolai,” I say as we close in on the borderline.He chuckles softly and shakes his head.“I’m not sure you want to know what’s on my mind.” He says with a scowl.“Then why did you come along?” I ask him, raising a brow. “You are going to miss me, so you felt the need to come be angry in my presence?” I’m goading him. I know that, but I’m beyond caring. He has things he wants to get off his chest. I can see it in his eyes. He just needs a little
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 53: Here Comes the Rain
The caves are within eyesight, though if I had to guess we have another hour before we actually get to them. A crack of thunder vibrates through the ground beneath my feet and Ranger growls in anger. The clouds settle in as the sun falls and disappears behind the rocky structure of the mountain we are traveling along. Large droplets of water descend from the sky like rapid-fire machine guns. Each resounding plop is a reminder of how much more difficult our trip is now going to be. In a matter of minutes, water is dripping off the tip of my nose and I’m pushing my hair out of my face so often I may be forcing a new habit on myself. “This is your fucking fault,” Ranger mutters. “Please enlighten me,” I grumble back, slipping on a rock, barely catching myself. We spent most of our trip in wolf form, only shifting back because we were so close. “Shit seems to go sideways with you lately. The treaty mission went to shit. You break an Alpha order.” “Wasn’t an order for me.” I remind hi
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 54: Getting out
~Wren~Jade is propped up against the headboard of my bed, flipping through a book. She glances up briefly before closing it and setting it to the side as she watches me closely. I have always tried to hide my emotions and put on a stoic face, and sometimes, I can be successful when the dire need arises, but right now, I can tell I’m failing. My mind reels from the truth that just unfolded itself in my lap. I don’t know how to process the information or what to do with it.“You seem… tense,” Jade says, treading lightly.“We need to leave immediately,” I say, ignoring her, choosing to thrust myself into other problems. There is no time to think about the secrets I know about my mate and can’t share with him. I have no time to waste to get where I need to be before everything comes tumbling down.I move to my closet, pulling out two spare pants, a spare se
Rebel Rising The Lost Alpha's Mate Chapter 55: RUN!
Jade and I stare down at Nickolai and Tank, offering them a small victorious wave before we turn our backs. The thought of being out in the open is unsettling, so I move for the tree line to my left, remembering the two rogues who stood in the shadows of these trees after tossing me supplies to help Sebastian. They didn’t have to help, yet they put themselves in danger to give me medicines to help stave off infection. “Do you know where you are going?” Jade asks. “Uh, not really. I’m just kind of relying on instinct here.” I admit, pushing a branch full of leaves from my face. “I thought you knew where we were going.” She says, sounding mildly accusatory. “I know where we are supposed to be. Getting there is something that might be a little difficult.” I admit. She sighs beside me. I assume she is regretting her decision to come along with me now. “And exactl
