Raven POV

I couldn’t stop the tears as I sat there at the table with this man that I loved. A man so kind that even though he was going to give me some of the worst news that I will ever get, he was still trying to make me feel comfortable. But that was part of the problem. He was recreating a moment that had been one of the memories that kept me going through all the hard times over the years. Now it was going to bring me pain when I thought about it.

When Jacob slid to his knees beside me, I

  • The Alpha's Disappearing Mate   Chapter 78

    Jacob POVI looked up from the castle that Emma was putting the finishing touches on to see Raven making her way over to us. The black circles around her eyes had finally faded, and her skin was starting to gain its healthy glow again. But the best part was the smile on her face. It was a genuine smile. One of those smiles that you could see shine in her eyes. The type of smile that I hadn’t seen many of since I had found her. But there it was. I don’t know what had caused it, but I wanted to know. I wanted to make sure whatever was responsible would never be taken away from her.As she got closer, I stood brushing the sand off my swim trunks. “Hey, what are you smiling at?” I asked, slipping my arms around her waist and pulling her close.She shook her head. “Nothing special, just the fact that I think I have finally come home.”“Well, if thinking of this place here with me as home puts that beautiful smile on your face, then we are never leaving.” Said leaning forward and placing my

  • The Alpha's Disappearing Mate   Chapter 77

    Raven POVI walked across the road to the park where Emma and Jacob had gone to wait for me, while I had my first session with Dr. Margaret Wells, the therapist that Jacob had asked me to see. Jacob brought Emma and me to Blue Ridge about three weeks ago. He brought us home. Sitting on the bench, I zoned out a bit, replaying the information that Margaret and I had talked about. I hadn’t talked much about the trauma that I had experienced, but that could be discussed in other sessions.Most of the session had been Margaret explaining some of the werewolf culture, mostly about the mate bond. What it was. How the males’ need to protect can border on possessiveness, which she admitted could seem scary to someone who hadn’t grown up around it. Even more so for someone who had been through something as I had. She also explained the whole matting and marking thing. The thought of Jacob sinking his fangs, which I remember being huge, into my neck while we were…I shivered at the image that it

  • The Alpha's Disappearing Mate   Chapter 76

    Raven POVIt has been three days since I blacked out at the cabin, and I have learned a lot in those three days. When I first woke up in the clinic, I talked with the doctor. He thinks I had a panic attack and passed out when I heard the sounds of bones cracking. He thinks that because I hadn't seen the shift, the sounds triggered flashbacks to when that man shifted and attacked me in the woods. It caused my brain to shut down instead of dealing with it.The day after I left the clinic, Jacob took Emma and me back to the cabin, where he explained more about being a werewolf. He explained that there is a high chance that Emma will grow to have a wolf too. I have never seen her so happy. She fired off question after question that Jacob patiently answered.Watching him with her made all the things that I have been through worth it. Listening to their conversation is when I found out that Emma had always known that there was something different about the man that had us. She explained tha

  • The Alpha's Disappearing Mate   Chapter 75

    Jacob POVI shifted back, slipped into my jeans and was pulling my shirt over my head when I heard it. A thump, as if something had hit the front porch. I didn’t even stop to try and figure out what it was because all that mattered was that Raven was there.Reaching the corner of the cabin, I saw Raven lying on the wood of the porch beside the chair she had been sitting in. I climbed back over the railing that Coal had leapt over when he had left. I scooped Raven into my arms and took her inside. Lying her on the couch, I checked her head for any cuts or bumps but found none. My brain frantically tried to figure out what had happened.Was this being caused by something that had happened in the woods? Had there been something wrong with the food that I left her? “Raven, Princess, wake up,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm and failing. When Raven didn’t respond, I grabbed my phone and called Sara, hoping she might have an idea.“Hey, girl, just go talk to…”“Raven collapsed. Meet us

    Raven POVWhen Jacob walked out the door, I fought to hold back the tears from coming again. I hadn’t been able to stop them when he had gone into the bathroom. I couldn’t figure out what I had done wrong. I went from scared to angry that he wouldn’t talk to me. I had grabbed the nearest article of clothing, which happened to be Jacob’s T-shirt. His scent was all over it, and for some reason it calmed some of my anger but not all of it.I didn’t know what to expect when Jacob moved the curtain and looked out of the shower at me, but the burning desire that appeared in his eyes was not it. Then his expression changed, and the next thing I knew I was wrapped in his arms, pressed against his chest. He was saying something that I wasn’t quite paying attention to because I was marvelling at the feel of Jacob’s muscular chest pressed to my cheek. How did he expect me to listen to what he was saying when he was holding me like this? But the sound of my stomach growling broke the spell.I fou

  • The Alpha's Disappearing Mate   Chapter 73

    Jacob POVI wiped my chin and made my way onto the bed with Raven, making sure to kiss as much of her beautiful body as I could along the way. With each kiss, the need to mark and claim her permanently grew. I could feel my fangs drop as I reached that sweet spot on her shoulder. That spot that called to my animal side. It took every ounce of willpower that I had to hold back. But I knew that I couldn’t mark her, not yet anyway.Even when she let out that soft, sexy moan, I don’t think she even realized that she did. That moan called to me. I could almost hear her begging for me to mark her, but it had to be instinct. But no matter how much I wanted to, and her body seemed to want it, I would not do that until I had had a chance to explain what it all means to my kind.I sat up and turned my head away so she couldn’t see my fangs. I didn’t want to scare her. Even though she seems to have accepted what I am, she still has seen the full package. I was taking deep breaths, trying to get
