Semua Bab The Alphas Regret: Winning Their Broken Mate Back: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Aubrey’s POVHayden took my hand and led me out of the warehouse that served as the laboratory.It was a full moon tonight, and I could hear the wolves howling in the distance. They were on a hunt, and it was a ritual passed down from generation to generation. “Does it always get this loud?” Hayden asked as we approached the car. “You have no idea how loud it gets,” I chuckled, opening my side of the door. “It gets worse?” Hayden looked stunned. “The plague has greatly reduced a lot of things happening in the pack, and that’s why few wolves are going on the hunt tonight,” I explained. “It’s difficult for me to understand all your werewolf stories; I get confused more often than not.” Hayden shrugged, turning on the car's ignition. “There’s a library where you can read up on our history and become familiar with questions you have no answer for,” I said as the car sped away from the laboratory.“Do you think Aiden and Damon will ever ease up on hating me?” Hayden asked. His eyes w

Aubrey’s POVAre you going to tell Hayden about what the witch revealed to you? Aiden’s words kept ringing in my head as I fiddled with my pen nervously. I hadn’t seen Hayden since last night because we returned late from the mountains and I decided to head home instead of going back to the laboratory before going home together like we usually did. I didn’t know why I was reluctant to tell him about what had happened. Was it because I was starting to see things from Damon’s perspective when he said that there were things Hayden wouldn’t understand because he was human or was it because of something else entirely?The truth was that I couldn’t place my finger on any particular assumption, everything felt right in my head but it made me feel bad about the whole thing as well. Maybe it would be best to follow my instincts and keep what happened in the mountains between myself and Aiden. If I need to tell Hayden, I would be sure to do that but not now. I heard a knock on the door and

Aubrey’s POVI found it difficult to fully concentrate on what I was supposed to be working on, it was nearly impossible and I didn’t know what to do about the discovery that I had just made. I owed the past five years of my life to how I had managed to hide my past while I had been in the human world. My liberty, my status, my life, everything. And like any cautious person, I was ready to do anything to protect my privacy. Because I had a lot to lose and I could not let that happen again.The protection I relied on for so long was based on just two things. It was the same two things for anybody trying to avoid danger. It was the same way a nation protects itself against an enemy nation, the same way a boxer guards a potential knockout blow, the same way a security guard protects an office against a burglar. It was based on two things. Detection and response. Step one, step two. First, you find the threat, then you eliminate the threat.Step one was the warning system. I had managed

Ellie’s POV Guilt had never eaten me up this deep before. Sometimes, I could barely breathe properly for a few seconds only managing to gain a hold of myself when I was about to pass out. The first time I ever felt this way was when my ex-boyfriend, who’s now dead as a result of my stubbornness, would constantly remind me how I was a cursed child from birth, he would boldly tell me to my face that I was the cause of my mother’s death and his eternal heartbreak. My mother had died giving birth to me and I was often ridiculed because of that. But my father had sentenced everyone who did that to death.  It’s been three months since Aiden snapped the bonds of our marriage, killing it in front of me, it’s also been three months since I was left alone in

Ellie’s POV After battling with my emotions for a long time, I ended up accepting to do what Aiden had asked me to do. Originally, I didn’t want to do it but I didn’t want to risk his ire anymore. I had a lot to lose and Aiden didn’t, so if this was going to be the start of fixing things between us, I didn’t mind doing it.  Aiden hadn’t spoken a word to me after I refused to do it at first but after I told him that I was going to do it, he looked at me for the first time in a long while and in that moment, I felt my husband return to me. I promised him that I would take care of things and I would. I couldn’t afford to let him down this time around.
