Blake’s Pov

The house seated silent, and I could no longer hear the ceremonial chants that had gone on for far too long after the ceremony had ended and we had started dinner.

Now, I stood in the middle of the room Ridge had given to me the first time I arrived, the one I had ran to when I got confused earlier today, the one I had later gotten prepared in.

Julia had walked me back here after the feast, pressing a soft kiss to my temple and whispering that Ridge would find me soon, that I shouldn't worry about him leaving.

I knew she had intended pun in her words, but I had just nodded, because I was truly worried. As a matter of fact, a lot of thoughts had gone through my mind about why he had left. I was thinking that perhaps, that was all there is, and we would live separately until the wedding again or something. But Julia had assured me that Roman had only pulled him away for something urgent, not because they wanted him away from his mate.

Urgent.

That word had settled like a

    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

    Blake’s Pov Thank goodness, Nabi was finally awake, and as I made my way to her room, Roman stopped me. “You can’t go in, Luna. The alpha forbade it.” He said. I furrowed my brows in a frown, not sure I heard him quite well. “What are you talking about? Why can’t I go in?” I asked again. “Like I said, Luna, Alpha Ridge forbids you from going anywhere near Nabi.” He repeated. “What? Why?” I couldn’t help but shout my question because believe me, I was confused. I wasn’t even sure why I was being stopped from going to see Nabi, let alone by Ridge’s orders. Roman lifted his shoulder in a shrug. “He said you’re not supposed to be riled up in anyway, and you’re in a fragile state. Congratulations by the way.” He said, giving me a soft smile. I blinked at him, still trying to process what he’d just said. “Roman, I’m pregnant, not made of glass. And Nabi just woke up, do you know how worried I’ve been? I need to see her.” He shifted on his feet, clearly uncomfortable. “I get that

    Blake’s PovKenny screamed like someone had a knife to her throat, so I pulled the phone off my ear. All I told her was that I was pregnant. She hadn’t even allowed me landed before reacting like this. I smiled, but the smile didn’t reach my eyes. I mean, I was happy I was pregnant, that way, I didn’t owe my father anything, or have the need to look for my mother, but still, a lot was going on for me to be fully happy. There was Erin who claimed my husband was her mate, and then, there was Clarissa who had brought my husband a child, a daughter, claiming she was his daughter and that meant they would be in our lives forever. What was there to be happy about then? I had nothing against the daughter though, but that bitch Clarissa? Not so much. “I need to come see you then. I’ve been so busy lately, and taken more shifts, that’s why I couldn’t come see you.” She said. “It’s fine, Kenny. I just hope you’re not stressing all that much.” I said. I wanted to tell her so bad th
