บททั้งหมดของ Once Upon a Forbidden Mate: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

The dull ache in my chest had slowly been getting worse, I knew it was because of the rejection but that didn’t make me feel any better. Brianna had looked as though she was doing okay when I left her but as an alpha I wouldn’t expect her to let others see her pain. It would make her look weak.Hopefully she wouldn’t hold the rejection or the pain against me and we can still be together after this. If I could have gotten away without actually saying the words I would have, but alpha Dalton had to send that stupid omega with me to report back to him. I had no choice other than to do what I did, she had to understand that.“Will you stop fidgeting, you are driving me crazy.” Franklin took another sip of his coffee. He was just as nervous as I was but his way of detailing with it was to complain whereas I preferred to keep moving. Although I had to admit that complaining had some benefits too. “I just can’t believe that for the second time in two days, we are waiting for alpha Dalton t

I couldn’t tell how many of them were down there but it sounded as though there were a lot of them. They crashed through the front door and started making their way through the house like a pack of rabid dogs, screaming and shouting as they moved from room to room.“What are we going to do?” I whispered, my eyes darting around the room for a place to hide and coming back with nothing. “We have to hide, there is no way that we can fight our way out of this pack.” Franklin replied, looking just as panicked as I did. He opened a window then took hold of my hand and led me out of the room. He ran to the end of the hallways before jumping up to pull on a string that I hadn't even noticed was there. It was difficult to spot and that was what Franklin was counting on, he was hoping that the werewolves would assume that we had fled through the open window rather than hidden in the attic. It was a long shot but what other choice did we have right now? Franklin gave me a boost into the atti

Brianna went to bed shortly after ten but the rest of us stayed in my office to discuss the problem. I knew that Rowan and Pierre weren’t convinced that we should waste our time trying to save Dominic and Franklin. They didn’t say anything but I could tell that they thought it was pointless, that alpha Kennedy would have killed them long before we got there. They were probably right but I had to try, otherwise the guilt would eat at me. It was me that had sent them into that pack and deep down I knew that the plan was flawed. I had rushed into it because I wanted to get him away from my future mate before they could develop feelings for each other. I shouldn’t have done that and now his potential death was on my shoulders and I wasn’t sure that I could live with that kind of guilt. We had spent the last three hours looking at maps of alpha Kennedy’s territory, looking for any kind of weakness and coming back with the same answer. The problem wasn’t getting into the pack, that was go

My heart ached as I drove away from Brianna. I didn’t want to be driving into that pack with all of this going on in my mind, I wanted to punch something or drink my own body weight in alcohol. Instead I was driving straight into a high pressure situation where I would need to use all of my intellect and cunning. I wasn’t even sure if this plan was going to work, the last time that I had seen my father and my alpha they had chased me out of the pack. It wasn’t as though I had completed the mission that they had given me, so I had to think of some other reason for being here in the next couple of minutes. There were a few things that I could try but I wasn’t sure that either of them would be enough to distract from my real reason for being here. If I managed to get out of this alive with the codes it would be some kind of miracle. Alpha Kennedy must have been notified of my arrival the moment that I crossed the border because within a few seconds it felt like all my family were tryin

This beta had been testing my patience from the start but it was a mistake for him to admit his feelings for Brianna. Even with my increased control over my wolf, there was only so much that I could do, and once I knew he had made an attempt to take her from me earlier today I was fighting a losing battle.My wolf growled and surged forward so quickly that I didn’t stand a chance in hell of holding him back. I found myself being forced to watch as my wolf lunged forward and grabbed this beta by the neck and sent the two of us tumbling to the floor. Out of the corner of my eye I could see Dominic and Rowan getting out of the car and running over to me. They needed to move quickly, my wolf wasn’t thinking rationally and he was out for blood.“How dare you try to steal my mate from me beta,” My wolf growled. His grip on the beta’s throat tightened causing the beta to gasp for air while clawing at my hand. My wolf was not deterred by this, his claws dug into the skin at the back of his nec
