Blake’s Pov

What was Ridge talking about? That was all I had been able to think of since we took the woman into the spare guest bedroom, and Nabi and Henry by her side, while Roman and Ridge went to his office to talk.

I sat there at the kitchen counter, thinking about what he had meant by council land when he said that?

“Luna?” I heard someone call behind me and I almost jumped out of my skin. It was Nabi.

“I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.” she said.

I waved it off with my free hand, as the other was pressing against my chest. “It's fine, dear. I’m the one in deep thought. You did nothing wrong.” I told her.

“I wanted to ask if I could borrow any of your clothes for the woman. I would go for mine, but I don't think these materials I like to wear so much would be so great against her bruised body.”

I nodded quickly, pushing back from the counter. “Yes… yes, of course. Come with me, I’ll grab something soft. Cotton, maybe a loose dress.”

  • The Bridge To The Alpha’s Human Mate   One Hundred and Twenty Five

    Ridge’s Pov The moment I entered into my mother's house, I started to yell for where Clarissa was, but no one answered me. My mother was in the sitting room, her hands folded, and I could tell she was tensed. Nina wasn't anywhere I could see, but I was sure she was somewhere crying, because she had heard the news by now. That was the way my baby sister reacted to news like this. Julia was right behind me, toeing around and trying to get me to calm down. “You don't really need to do this, Ridge.” she said, her voice small and cautious, and she also knew not to touch me. I looked behind me with my eyes squinted, warning her without having to say anything. “I know, I know. You're angry, but you have to calm down, or you're going to do something you'll regret.” she said. “Regret?” I growled, my voice low but sharp enough to make Julia flinch. “The only thing I regret is letting her back into this house in the first place.” “Mom did that,” Julia said, giving Mom a look over he

    Ridge’s PovFor a long moment, all I did was stand there. I couldn’t move, breathe or even think because my head went blank, and it seemed like I had lost all sense of reasoning. A coma. The word rang in my head like a death sentence. Finn’s lips kept moving, but I didn’t hear a damn thing any longer. My eyes were glued to the trauma room door, where Blake was lying; my wife, my mate, my everything, and I couldn’t get to her. I couldn’t hold her. Couldn’t pull her back. It was Roman’s hand on my shoulder that dragged me out of the haze. “Alpha Ridge,” he said low, steady, the only anchor I had right now. “You need to listen.” I blinked hard, tearing my gaze from the door, and focused on Finn. His face was pale, drawn tight, like he’d aged ten years in half an hour. “We’ve controlled the bleeding for now,” he said carefully, “but she’s very weak. The baby…” He hesitated, like he was afraid I would shatter if he spoke the words aloud. “The baby that survived is small, but holding on

    Ridge’s Pov“Where the fuck are the doctors?” I asked Roman as I walked back into the common room. The damn party had been interrupted and over, so everyone had either gone back home or to their respective chambers in here at the pack house. They knew we’ll not to cross me. Roman looked down at his phone, and then at me. “They both just arrived.” He said. I wondered why we had to wait two solid hours for the two doctors we had here in the pack, but then again, they were probably at work, which was why they couldn’t even make the party in the first place. We walked out of the common room to the front door, where the doctors were already getting out of their cars. “Good evening, Alpha R…” “Keep your greetings to yourself, and get to my wife.” I said. “Where is she?” One of them asked and I grunted. “She’s in my chambers. Follow me.” I said and started towards the elevator. A few minutes later, we were there, and the doctors started to examine Blake. I stood at the sid

    Blake’s Pov Groaning, I turned gently, my body reacting to the move with pain, and I winced. I could hear a sudden shuffle from somewhere inside the room, and when I forced my eyes open to see who it was, I realize that I couldn’t. “God, she’s been unconscious for a couple of hours now, Mom, and this is all Clarissa’s fault. You should have never have allowed her back here. You shouldn’t have given her a place to stay when she came back.” I heard Julia’s voice. I started to wonder if she was talking to her mother on the phone until I heard Elaine’s voice. She was in the room as well. “Are you saying it’s somehow my fault?” She asked. I heard Julia scoffed, then she said. “I’m not saying it’s your fault. I’m saying you shouldn’t have given her the chance to come back.” She said. “Do you even hear yourself? Are you making any sense?” Elaine asked, her voice kind of low, even though I could hear it clearly. “Of course, you get defensive Mom. Don’t think I don’t know you allo

    Ridge’s Pov Looking around, I saw that people were starting to look at Blake, with accusation in there eyes, and some were even pointing fingers, murmuring things to her. I gritted my teeth as I looked from them to Roman, signaling to him to come drag off this woman before I did what I would regret. He gave a curt nod and started towards the podium, but he didn’t make it here before I heard the loud thud, and then someone shouted. “She’s fainted, the Luna has fainted.” The sound hit me like a gunshot. My head snapped toward where Blake had been standing, and my chest tightened so hard it hurt. She was on the floor, pale as paper, her hair spilling over the polished wood like ink on snow. For a heartbeat, I couldn’t move… then instinct took over. I was across the room before anyone else even thought to reach her, shoving past a knot of gawking wolves who didn’t have the sense to get out of my way. My knees hit the floor beside her, and I scooped her up, one arm cradling her ba

  • The Bridge To The Alpha’s Human Mate   One Hundred and Twenty

    Blake’s PovI wasnt comfortable here at all, whatever this party was about, but it had nothing to do with the fact that I was the only human here, it was more because I didn't like coming to a party when Nabi was home sick, and I wasn't even allowed to see him. I stood there beside the trays, the air thick with the warmth of the food and the low hum of conversation. One long table groaned under the weight of roasted venison, its skin lacquered to a deep bronze, glistening under the soft lights. Next to it sat cast-iron skillets of garlic butter potatoes, their edges crisp and golden, scattered with sprigs of rosemary. Baskets of cornbread; some plain, some speckled with jalapeños, were stacked high, the golden squares oozing honey where it had dripped between them. Further down, whole trout lay on cedar planks, their skin charred in places, flaking apart at the lightest touch. Bowls of jewel-toned berry preserves gleamed beside tiered stands of apple pies dusted with cinnamon so fi
