All Chapters of The Alpha's Third Mistress: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

It took several moments for Keegan to reign in the tempest within him. But he wasn't done with her. No, he was far from finished. He had a search to lead and also wanted to know what she was doing in Howling Ridge despite her banishment. When Sheera told him what she'd discovered about Thessaly, he snapped, being in denial. "So, you take away my will, then return six months later to accuse my pregnant Mistress of being a witch?" He had asked maliciously. "I wouldn't risk my life coming here if any of these were false.""No. Maybe your life was worth risking because you think I'd believe you and punish Thessaly.""Then find her, Alpha. Find her and see if I'm lying."After a moment of silence, Sheera had added. "I swear on the moon, I am telling the truth. Thessaly is not missing. She sent into hiding, waiting for the Eclipse Moon which is only three nights from now."It took some more argument before Keegan gave into Sheera's words. he confirmed they were going to find Thessaly an

She'd seen Thessaly as well and didn't tear her gaze away. Thessaly was befuddled, a thousand questions running through her mind at once. What was she doing there? She was banished. There was no way she could have made it into Howling Ridge without being spotted by a Keeper or any of the Pack members. She shouldn't even be 'here'. Only Elke knew of this location. For several minutes, the two was silent, simply staring at each other. "Hello, sister." Sheera finally said, releasing a smile that was more sad than real. Thessaly's heart caught in her throat. She knew. She gave Sheera a head to toe stare, wondering if the labour pain had somehow taken her into some sort of trance. "You do not look too excited to see me," Sheera pressed. "Too bad. For five weeks, I anticipated this moment."Thessaly was too stunned to speak. But she forced herself to composure. "What're you doing here?" Her eyes darted around, wondering if she had come with someone else. "If you're looking for Elke,

Sheera's eyes stretched so wide they felt as though they might escape their sockets. Despite how terrified she was, there was a ball of heat forming low in her abdomen. The Alpha had a hundred reasons to kill her, and he could do it so easily now. "I do not care about the silly excuse you gave." His voice was a low growl, his hand still pressed over her mouth. "What you did was an act of betrayal. You played me for a fool, and that goes to show that you are a horrible person."His silver eyes burned with fury, their intensity a flame threatening to consume her whole. His face, shadowed and taut with rage, seemed carved from stone, every line of it etched in hatred.Sheera didn't dare to utter a word, knowing none could satisfy him.Slowly, he released his hand from her mouth. His gaze raked over her, dark and menacing.He brushed his fingers around her neck, causing the ball of heat to spread wider in her abdomen. She closed her eyes, awaiting the moment he'd strangle her. "You 'hu

Their hearts were racing in their chests. For a moment there, they were too weak to run. Too hopeless to do anything. "Is this it?" Ravyn stepped forward. "Are we just giving up?""There is nothing that can be done anymore!" Sheera's voice rose in anguish, trembling with frustration. "She's started it already. We didn't get there in time. The wolves...they are all going to die!"Sheera fell to her knees, her head spinning. It felt like air was being drained from her lungs. Keegan. Keegan. Keegan.That was all she could hear. All she could think about. "No." Morginna shook her head. "We must find her.""To what end, mother?" Sheera shouted, her tears running down. Morginna paled. Turning to Sheera, she felt anguish for what she was about to say.****They followed the blood trail, faster this time. Finally, it ended. They looked ahead at the temple where the trail had ended. "You sure she's still there?" Ravyn asked. "She can't leave until the Eclipse is complete. She's the one

There was a crowd outside. The people of Howling Ridge gathered around the raised platform, most of them having sore eyes from long torturous hours of crying. The loss of their loved ones ran deep. Keegan walked up to the platform, his eyes scanning them. He'd called for the gathering as soon as he returned to the Fortress. He granted access to every one of his Pack members, wanting them to bear witness to what was about to happen.The people had been looking forward to him, wanting to hear what he had to say. It was as though, his words could provide any form of closure for them. "To the strong esteemed people of Howling Ridge," Keegan began, his icy voice cutting through the crowd that had turned very silent. "I want to thank every one of you for making it here today. I know you all are grieving. So, thank you for coming as requested."As you all already know, something strange happened to us during the Eclipse Moon. It is the first time in history that something this powerful ha
