Resisting The Mate Bond のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

"The Primo pack cannot stay here." Elder Elvis announced and the others concurred. Reece was more frustrated than usual. That might have had something to do with the fact that he had been cockblocked by his sister-in-law who was also his ex, or the tense conversation with his father-in-law the day before. It might also have been because he had been up since the crack of dawn explaining to the elders who were way older than him that the ancient laws of seeking refuge could not be revoked."I don't think I have to explain to you the relevance of the ancient laws. You of all people should stand for the upholding of this law.""Alpha," Elder Asher said, the voice of moderation and Elder Elvis's counterweight. "You must understand the reason the law is almost obsolete. It is because two Alphas cannot dwell in the same territory. One must give way to the other. As much as we care for our displaced brethren, we cannot destabilize the structure of our pack for them."Reece contemplated it. He

The day a person's life changes doesn't often start dramatically. As Reece walked up to his room, every joint of his body whispering in pain, he thought only of a hot bath and Breeana. He had no idea that his life was about to be upended.He pushed open the door and his life changed again. Breeana was on their bed asleep and naked. Wrapped around her was a male wolf from Adelaide's pack. His erection pushed up against her back as they slept oblivious to his arrival.Reece died a thousand deaths at that moment. Breeana made a sound in her sleep and the wolf's arms tightened around her as though to comfort her even while they slept.When he'd caught Ariana with that wolf he thought he had felt the most betrayed he could feel in his life. It had nothing, absolutely nothing on this.Reece growled, rage electrifying his veins. They woke up but he paid no attention to Breeana's shocked gasp. Instead, he dragged the sleepy-eyed wolf out of his bed and out to the hallway."Hey let me go. Bree

"Strip Luna Breeana of her rank.""We reject her as our Luna.""The Mountain Coast pack refuses to take orders from a treacherous Luna."Reece didn't have high hopes for that day. He had woken up with a hangover to end all hangovers. He vaguely remembered kissing Breeana and her pushing him away. He wasn't quite sure if it was a dream or reality. The connecting door was firmly shut and he didn't see Breeana till he left the room.He had gone to his office as he did every day. They had postponed the family dinner because Zinora had gone to Shawn's funeral while Alex was still angry at him as though he had personally sent his mate away.Word had leaked that Reece had killed the wolf but Adelaide had sworn her people into secrecy so no one knew the main reason why he had done so. Just that he had hence Alex foul mood.But that fateful morning as his head throbbed so bad that he could barely read what Alex put in front of him, Allen raced in as though the host of hell was pursuing him."W

I did it because I can't bear the thought of losing you."I did it for the pack."Breeana's cheeks were on fire and she only hoped that Reece didn't notice."The pack?" He intoned."Yes, the pack," Breeana said now confident. "They have already lost one Alpha. They can't afford to lose another so soon. It's not as though you have an heir to survive you."Reece looked at Breeana but she averted her gaze."Breeana," He began, his tone thoughtful. "You aren't keeping anything from me, are you?"Breeana fought to keep the shock off her face.How did he know that she was keeping something from him? Had it been so obvious from her expression or was he really that good at reading her?"I don't know what you are talking about, Reece." Breeana said avoiding his gaze as she shifted in bed, ignoring the pain as she shifted pulling the covers. "I feel weak and I need to rest. Please excuse me."She felt Reece hesitate behind her. She counted her breaths till he finally left.There is only one thi

Breeana opened her mouth and shut it, stunned and speechless."What?" She finally managed to get out."Breeana, I need you to tell me the truth. I know you. You might not like Reece or want the bond but there is no way you would have done something like that. So why did Reece kill Shawn?"Breeana didn't know what to say. Her brother knew her tells better than even she did. She wouldn't be able to bluff with him the way she had with Reece. He would know she was lying if she didn't tell him the full story about Ariana. Goddess. She was so fucked."Who told you Reece killed anyone? Besides if he did it would be for a good reason."Breeana focused on that detail. There, she hadn't lied or omitted anything. She'd just refused to volunteer any useful information."Breeana, for the goddess's sake, look at me when you speak." With his dark brown hair so similar to hers and his brown eyes, he looked so much like their dad that he was almost impossible to lie to up close.How could she find the
