Alpha Jordan walked back to his chamber, his heart heavy with the weight of Cora's hurtful words and rejection. It pained him to the core that she had rejected their mate bond because of his past actions with Lydia. As he entered his room, he closed the door behind him and leaned against it, feeling a sense of emptiness washing over him.His wolf, Ryder, was also in agony. The bond between an Alpha and his wolf was strong, and Ryder shared in Jordan's pain. They had been through so much together, overcoming countless obstacles to become the respected Alpha of the Redwoods Pack. But now, their world seemed to crumble around them.Soon ,he remembered Cora's anguished words as she rejected their mate bond. Her pain had been felt by him, her disappointment searing. She had vowed never to let him have his way with her again, seeing him as just an ordinary Alpha. The realization that he had lost the love of his life, the one he was destined to be with, stung him like a thousand needles.He

She turned around, her eyes narrowing as she looked at Tristan."How do you know about my parents and my pack?" She demanded, her voice laced with suspicion.Tristan smirked, taking a step closer to Cora as she was one again, vulnerable. "Let's just say I have my sources," he said cryptically.Proud of himself and also,happy she came to a stop.She eyed hi

As the sun began to set, Cora and Tristan knew they had much work ahead of them. They exchanged a determined nod, silently understanding that their journey was far from over. They would continue to unveil the shadows of deception and fight against the corruption that threatened their pack, no matter the challenges they would face.As Cora made her way back to the pack's territory, her mind raced with anticipation and anxiety. She couldn't help but wonder how Alpha Jordan would react when he found out about her hidden plan. Would he understand her motives, or would he feel betrayed? She knew she had to face him and reveal the truth, no matter how difficult it would be.As she approached the Alpha's den, Cora's heart pounded in her chest. She took a deep breath and pushed open the door, stepping inside. Alpha Jordan was there, waiting for her, his expression unreadable.

They ran through the forest, listening to the whispering birds and the rustling of the trees as they sought refuge in her secret training spot.Both of them were out of breath when they fin

The realization that she had been using Alpha Jordan to further her own agenda ,hit hard in her and that alone weighed heavily on her conscience. But before she could voice her thoughts, Alpha Jordan's sincere gaze caught her attention, and he excused himself to take an important call.Left alone in the room, her curiosity got the best of her. She glanced around, taking in the opulence of the wonder room that had always been locked to her. She had heard whispers and rumors about its contents, but this was the first time she had the chance to explore it herself.Her eyes were immediately drawn to a familiar sight , her mother's rings. Her heart skipped a beat as she looked at the precious heirlooms that had once belonged to her beloved mother, who had been brutally murdered years ago. She couldn't believe her eyes and felt a surge of pain that hit her hard on her chest
