Todos los capítulos de The Hunter’s Rue: Claiming His True Mate: Capítulo 61 - Capítulo 70

HunterI stopped counting days after Fleur left me. They all blurred into one; waking up, having breakfast, and handling pack business with papers waiting to be signed or checked.I video-called my parents daily to stay sane, briefing them on pack progress. Because it did progress, mainly powered by Alpha Lewis’s wealth and resources. He sent his head warrior to enhance our training techniques, and his security team to upgrade ours and train the team on new technology. He even provided new kitchen equipment, which Rosie refused to use, though the other omegas appreciated it. It made me wonder; if Alpha Lewis offered all that before I even claimed his daughter, what would he offer if I did?Meanwhile, Bethany, whom I referred to as a guest in our pack; was starting to show. Her pregnancy added a whole new confusion. I told the pack it was from her deceased mate, while she claimed it was mine.Dan had been beyond ecstatic to spend the weekend with Emma. So, seeing the state he was in

DanLuna Agatha spoke calmly, “Of course, Alpha Hunter. Go ahead and call your Beta over. Though you should know from now; that we may accept or deny his request.”Agatha's voice, gentle as she seemed, carried an undeniable strength and power. As calm as she looked, her vibe made it clear that it was entirely pointless to argue your case once she had made up her mind. She was a true enigma, a complex mix of gentle beauty and violent, savage terror. Hunter nodded slowly, then signaled for me to step forward and take his seat in front of the camera so they could see me.Hearing Luna Agatha saying that they might deny my request hit me hard. I couldn't just walk away; I had to know the truth to survive the weight of it. I felt completely numb. Where had I failed? What signs did I miss? Emma was right beside me. How could I have been so blind to not notice that she was hurting?I sat down, feeling completely drained. Looking at the screen with a shaking voice, I said, “Alpha Rowan, Luna

ONE YEAR LATERSeleneStanding by the lake at the end of our pack’s garden, I closed my eyes, facing the sun, letting every single detail of my final night with Hunter rush back into my mind.I could still feel the passion of his touch, breathing in his scent. I remember how I swallowed my own moans beneath his kisses while his hands traced every soft, longing spot on my body.As beautiful as our union was, no matter how hard I tried, I can’t shake the memory of how much he was trembling and shaking in my arms, how many times he left gentle kisses on my neck, repeating over and over how much he missed me.His skin had been warm, burning under my touch, and every trace and movement of his was so eager to consume me completely, he was slow, patient and took his time, like he was in some sort of a real dream, then ravished me as if he were racing against time before I vanished from his life.It took every cell in me to pull myself away from him when he went to sleep. I sat on the edge of

SeleneI expected today to be a repeat of everyday! Instead, it was full of revelations.I kept the habit from Hunter, hitting the gym early in the morning, a quick shower, coffee, breakfast, training, and some me-time by the lake.Today, our training was cut short due to Alpha Lewis's visit. He didn't announce his presence until he was near, coming alone out of respect for our location's privacy, worried from any lurking rogues.Pulling his men from Hunter’s borders, Alpha Lewis didn’t ask for my parents' help. Instead, he intended to form the first line of defense himself, asking only that we aid Silver Moon if he fell. Hearing him say that, I saw a new side of him, and finally, he earned my respect.Mother later said that Alpha Lewis had only turned cold and cruel after losing his mate. He knew Bethany and her child were safer in Silver Moon than with him.Later, Uncle Ronan called us all into the study where we met Father.I paled. “Uncle Ronan, are you sure?”Uncle Ronan nodded.

Alpha RowanThat evening in my study, I tried to be fair to Selene, but my wolf and I refused to let her go. The sheer thought of her leaving made me sick; to go to her first ever rogues’ fight, would shatter me.And then, there was him? An angry rogue leader, seeking vengeance; and with an Alpha’s lineage in his veins. My blood.I hadn’t told Agatha; I didn’t know how. Not since Ronan brought me the news about Kerik Finch two weeks ago.I was in my study working up the selection tests and formation, when Ronan walked in:“Rowan, brother,” Ronan had said. “Some she-wolves I really trust told me something today. You’re not going to like it.”I stared at him. “Speak, Ronan.”Ronan nodded. “Kerik, the rogue leader, his mother was a Beta’s daughter whose fated mate turned out to be a rogue. She refused to reject him and ran off with him.”I sighed. “We know that. And why do you think that matters to me?”Ronan leaned over the desk, locking eyes with me. “You remember the affair you had
