All Chapters of The Alpha's Only Weakness: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

ELARA’S P.O.V. I glanced back and forth between the stranger and my mate, knowing the stranger wasn’t just here to talk. He was sent here by someone for a reason, and I knew in my gut that we were no longer safe. It didn’t matter how strong Lucien was or how strong I was. Someone had sent this stranger to our land to threaten us, to make it clear that we had angered their master... their keeper. It wasn’t lost on me that Abigail had disappeared to run back to her father right before this happened. She was angry and wanted revenge because I had taken Lucien from her, and she had made it obvious that she had been sent back here to look for something... something she had apparently found. Now that she had she run right back to her... My lips parted, and my breathing came faster as I started to piece it together. It was her father. It was Lord Sterling. He was the keeper. He had to be. All this time, he had been controlling everything, playing the puppet master behind t

ELARA’S P.O.V.“Now!” Lucien commanded, and I felt my wolf submit to him instantly as my legs began to pull me to his office. Guards surrounded Roland and forced him with us, but he didn’t look bothered by it beyond a flash of annoyance. Based on what he had done to the Silver Claw pack, the guards wouldn't be able to do much if he were to attack, but I wasn't going to bring that up.I glanced over my shoulder to see Lucien whispering to Braden. When they were done, I noticed Braden didn't follow us even though he was the Beta. Instead, as Lucien left him to join us in his office, Braden turned and began relaying the orders to get everyone moving. The room grew louder once again, this time with the addition of shuffling feet as people obeyed and, thankfully, got to work.We were under attack, and we had no time to waste. Lucien then sped up until he was walking at my side. Occasionally, I felt his eyes on the side of my head as we left the great hall, but I refused to look up.The

ELARA’S P.O.V.The man stood on the border, his cloak over his head, but I could see his hesitation, and his eyes widening while he stared at my hand that was aiming for him.“It’s not up to us!” He insisted, and I pressed my lips together as I shook my head.“Oh, but it is,” I said, “You have a choice to make, because as you can see, you are just as disposable as the rest of us, and I have no problem killing you. You can go back to your master and demand they release my mate, or my pack will burn this world down until he is returned to us. Starting with your little army here. The choice is yours.”I felt the pack behind me, shifting their stances, spreading their feet, growing more confident as they faced off with the reapers who had terrified them only moments before.This was what Lucien had been talking about. They didn’t need arguing and panic. They needed a leader, confidence, and a plan. My plan just so happened to be to cut down anyone who got in my way or tried to stop me fr

LUCIEN’S P.O.V.Pain was something I had grown used to in my life, and this was nothing new.Silver chains were shackled to my ankles and wrists, burning my skin and anchoring me to the stone floor in the center of the council chamber. Each time I pulled, they tightened, biting deeper.The magic they were laced with was stronger than I expected, but I could help but to resist against the restraints, looking for a weak spot.They weren’t trying to kill me, though. They were just trying to humiliate me and to get me to submit. The Elders sat at their dais quietly, watching and enjoying my pain as Lord Sterling stood over me.He smirked down at me, and I gave him a bloody smile in return. “You came in here acting so tough, but you brought bodyguards with you,” I said before spitting my blood at his feet. “It’s cute.”His hands were clasped behind his stiff back, as he stood before me, waiting to issue the guard behind me another order.“You’ve always been stubborn,” he said before turn

ELARA’S P.O.V.For a moment, I couldn’t breathe as I stared at them, unable to believe my eyes.It couldn’t be them. There was no reason for them to be here. They were gone. They were dea…The thought trailed off as my eyes landed on the thin yarn bracelet on my mother’s wrist. I had made it for her when I was a kid, thinking it was the most beautiful bracelet in the world. It wasn’t until now that I realized just how ratty it looked. All I had done was tie a bunch of knots in the string and then tied it around her wrist, but there it was. There was no way that they had been here this whole time, and Lucien hadn’t told me. He would have told me. He had been here dozens of times since learning I was their daughter. There was no way he hadn’t seen them…unless someone else put them here. “This is a trap,” I whispered, scanning my surroundings carefully but not seeing anything. “This has to be a trap.” My heart was racing, and I felt desperate to get to them, but I couldn’t risk my l
