The Alpha's Return Until that night...
Leo’s POVThe inside of the house was just as quiet and dark as the outside. Before I left for my meeting, the place was more alive than ever, but I had never seen it this way.A flickering light caught my eye as I walked through the foyer and into the corridor that led to the back of the house.“Took you long enough.” His low, gruff voice came from the lounge. Following his voice, I flicked the switch on the wall, allowing the light to illuminate him.My father sat in the leather armchair, an ashtray on one arm and a glass of amber liquid on the other. His hand was tight around it as he held his cigarette between two fingers. The smoke creating a fog-like veil.“I expected you back days ago.” Bringing his cigarette to his lips, he took a long drag, his eyes never leaving mine. His eyes were cold and dark, their warmth gone with my sister.“Something came up.” My father's lips raised at the corners as he huffed, the smoke leaving through his flared nostrils.“You mean your mate? Or yo
The Alpha's Return HER OVER ME!
Leo’s POV“So why do this to her? She wasn’t the one that wronged you; he was, and you killed him. Why not let that be the end of it?”“Have you not listened to a word I have said? He chose HER OVER ME!” My mother's eyes bulged as her anger grew.“Mother, please… Linda has suffered enough. You lost your fated mate, and it hurt you in ways I wouldn't want to imagine. But you got your revenge when you ended his life. You wanted to hurt Linda because he had a life with her, and you have done that. So please, Mother, just let her go.” Before I could blink, I found myself falling to the ground. Her blade now embedded in my stomach.I tried to remain conscious as my vision began to blur. Every breath I took sent a new wave of pain throughout my body. I hadn’t even noticed my mother standing over me until she pulled the blade free. “You wished to save the enemy, to offer her your sympathy. And now you will suffer beside her, but dear boy, don’t fret, I’ll allow you your chance at saying goo
The Alpha's Return Fate worse than death
Arabella’s POVTonight’s full moon was a reminder that no matter how dark things got, there would still be a glimmer of light to shine brightly through.Everyone had something they feared. Loss, love and many other things, but these were all natural reactions, which meant we could overcome them. I had recently experienced loss, and if I were being honest with myself, I’d also found love. Each fear triggered different emotions within us. Some might hide away, cry or even lash out, while others used it to power on and push forward. That’s what I intended to do.I would use the fear of losing those who remained close to my heart to spur me on by turning it into anger—an anger that would give me the strength and courage I needed to get back what was taken.The three of us had remained quiet for the entire journey.

It took a while before I realised that the bangs were explosions.The door to the cell flung open as my mother stormed inside. Her white shirt and blue leggings were covered in blood. Whether it was hers or not, I couldn’t tell. Growling, she grabbed the chain around my neck and pulled me to my feet.“This is all your fault! You orchestrated this!” I could taste the venom as she spoke. “It seems your pretty little mate has found our home. How do you think she did that?”“I didn’t…”“LIAR!” She threw me against the wall and turned her attention to Linda.“Please… I beg you.” Linda burst into tears the moment my mother gripped her hair.She pulled her towards me before stepping behind her.

Arabella’s POV"Bella, I understand that you're going through a tough time right now, but what you said was completely uncalled for.

If your own sibling had asked you to keep a secret, what would you have done?" Sara sighed, disappointed.Deep down, I knew she was right. Susie wasn't the one responsible for my unhappiness, but I couldn't deny that she could have at least prepared me for it."So what? You expect me to just forgive her? Forgive him?"
