Semua Bab When The Alpha Falls He Falls Hard: Bab 81 - Bab 90

HeatherThe days were hectic, watching my son bravely embrace his dual nature filled me with immense pride. "He's a fighter." I smiled, and that reminds me of his dad.Despite the horrific pain of those first transformations, Alex met each challenge with tenacity, trusting my guidance. His courage and resilience were truly alpha qualities inherit in his bloodline. "Now he soothing that he found his mate." I smiled to myself lifting a huge load in my chest.During quiet moments at the cafe between bustling rushes, my thoughts often drifted to the strange new world suddenly opened before Alex. Though initially blindsided by the changes, he now approached them pragmatically, adapting more smoothly than I dared hope. He was blossoming, my little warrior.Seeing Ian swanning in had become a welcome high point of even chaotic mornings. But recently he went to a bussiness meeting so he was away for a week.His easy confidence and charm always lifted my mood. We always bantered playfully ov

LucasFor the past days I Keegan didn't kenw about me meeting Heather and was planning as he says for the right time. And it was the last day I told her to meet and bring Alex."It's time."I steeled myself and made my way with deceptive calm to the place I told her to meet. I halted in my steps, pulse thundering in my ears as I look at the boy in front of me. There, standing warily before me, was a tall, well-built youth on the cusp of manhood. My breath caught at the achingly familiar eyes glaring back at me. There was no denying our relation - the family resemblance was unmistakable. My heir, my blood, standing before me at long last.I regained mastery over my rioting emotions, striding forward authoritatively. Now was not the time for sentiment. I must make clear who commanded here."So you are Alex," "Don't pretend you care. I'm just a pawn to control my mother," he bit out boldly. "Ah, I can see he has his mother's defiant spirit." I mumbled aside but my mood changes swiftly

Lucas"Easier said than done." I whispered to myself. I know I hurt her deeply and I just don't know what I did wrong.Heather kept her face turned away, refusing to acknowledge me. Resentment simmered, but also unease over me demanding to go back to our pack. She claims Alex wants to live here. And she won't tolerate that.For the past days I kept Keegan away with Ian, dealing with how to work on things as I bond with my family.But to my surprise keegan came in to my estate and met us on the tarmac, shock plain on his face at the sight of Heather. For a fleeting moment, something like guilt flashed in his eyes upon seeing her distressed state. But then his expression smoothed over. As I grabbed her arm and lost my temper."What happened?" he asked mildly. "I thought we agreed on a...delicate approach." His disapproval was subtle but clear. I bit back an angry retort, claws digging into my palms. "Plans changed. We'll discuss it inside." I hurried Heather along, eager to escape Keeg

Keegan After Lucas raged over Heather and Alex's escape, my mind spun analyzing where they could have vanished so completely. Though initially suspecting Lucas's bitter rival Richard, his agents reported no traces near the city. Which left only one realistic possibility - Ian. That he had resurfaced at all after so many years in obscurity set my teeth on edge. And his convenient timing in whisking Heather away reeked of ulterior motive. If he had her, then she and the boy were in graver danger than Lucas's temper. At least his possessive rage was a beast we knew. Ian's slick facades and hidden agendas were far more perilous. I needed to find them swiftly and expose his true nature before he sank his hooks in deeper. I bided my time through Lucas's eruptions of fury, waiting for an opportunity to discreetly follow the faint trail. Finally, after Lucas exhausted himself storming about the estate, I ventured out without notice into the bustling city. If I could pick up even the barest

71 Heather's POV:My head spun as Keegan wove the disturbing tale of Ian's - no, Richard's - true identity and motives. The friend I had trusted so implicitly was merely using me as a pawn in some toxic feud with Lucas. And now he was regaining dangerous lucidity in the backseat, malice smoldering in his eyes."Just focus on the road ahead," I told Keegan, trying to ignore Richard's presence behind us. I clutched Alex's hand like a lifeline. We were so close now to real freedom. I refused to let Richard's poisonous schemes drag us back under. Not this time. Alex gave my hand a determined squeeze, meeting my gaze steadily despite the fear in his eyes. My brave boy. We would face whatever came next together. I offered him a reassuring smile before turning to Keegan."What's the plan once we get some distance?" I asked, keeping my tone low. Keegan's brow creased in focus as he navigated busy streets. "I have contacts out of state who can help get you set up with new identities and pap
