All Chapters of The One He Reclaimed: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

AmeliaI can’t get past my gut feeling that something is going to happen while I’m away. Calvin could not have woken up at a more inconvenient time. Why now? Why right this minute? It’s like he’s purposefully waking up at the worst possible times. First, it was during Koden’s attack where he forced his mark on me, sending Calvin back into a coma. Now, he woke up right as I was leaving for the weekend to oversee the viewing of Zahn’s old pack. Honestly, if this wasn’t Jocelyn’s old pack, the place where I know all her nightmares stem from, I would have cancelled and had her represent our pack.But this is her old pack. This is the place Zahn brought her after he captured her, forced his mark on her, and raped her in front of his ranked members. I have to be there for her.‘Tell me, Amelia, when would have been a good time for Calvin to wake up without all of his memories?’ Reika, my wolf, asks.It’s a good question and the answer is never. So much has changed in the last year and a hal

AmeliaJust like we always do when we’re together, I rub my scent on the new pups in our ranked member group. Both Nikki and Allison had their pups during Margot’s Luna ceremony a couple weeks ago. This is my first opportunity to meet them.Our group of pups keeps getting larger and I wonder if I will someday have another pup as well. I have no problem with Athena being my pack’s heir, but I’d like more pups. Even Sophie has three pups now and she and I were pregnant together the first time.As the night goes on and the pups fall asleep, I look around at my friends.“How are Dr. Olander and Luna Olivia?” I ask.“They’ll be here next weekend,” Eve says.“Really?” I ask.“Surprisingly, yes. At the time we left, neither of them had gotten their wolves back but Dr. Olander, through his notepad because he still can't talk, let me know that he didn’t have to speak to be able to heal others,” Dante says, then grins. “I think he and Luna Olivia are battling to see whose wolf will re-emerge fi

Amelia“He’s in the river,” I say, staring into the darkness and trying to catch even a glimpse of Charity’s blond hair in the moonlight.“We need to split up. Koden’s too fucking sneaky. He’ll slip past us if we don’t,” Hunter says.I stare at the river, fuming that he got this far.“Amelia,” Hunter says, trying to get my attention.I turn and look at him. We followed Koden’s trail to the point where he entered the water. Now, we’re standing at the river’s edge, deciding on our next steps.“I’m crossing. Knowing him, he got out on the other side somewhere south of here. Depending on how far the current took him, he might double back to Alpha David’s old pack.”“I’m with you, Amelia,” Hunter says.“I don’t need you protecting me, Hunter,” I growl.Okay, it’s uncalled for and snarky, but I’m so fucking pissed that Koden has outsmarted my patrols and got onto my pack lands, again, that I don't moderate my tone.“Consider it you protecting me, Amelia. I have no intention of answering to

AmeliaAfter showering and putting on the clothes that Hunter left for me, I call Dr. Caspian.“How is Calvin?”“He’s still asleep, Alpha.”“You have my permission to sedate him again if he becomes belligerent with you or Brooklyn.”“Thank you. I’m hoping it won’t come to that, but with his memory loss, Alpha Calvin seems to have reverted back to his … mmm,” I can tell he’s trying to find a nice way to say what Calvin is again.“His pompous Alpha ways?” I fill in for him.“Well, yes, that.”“Yeah. I’m not exactly thrilled that I’m going to have to go through this with Calvin again. I am planning to stay the night here. I want to make sure Charity is safe and comes through the worst of this,” I tell him.“If Dr. Felicity clears her, I can take over her treatment, Alpha. I know you’d rather have her here with you,” he says.“Thank you, Dr. Caspian,” I say before saying goodbye.The problem is, I doubt Charity will want to return. I promised to keep her safe and she got kidnapped out of m

CalvinI wake up disoriented. I feel like something is happening, but I can’t figure out what it is or what I’m supposed to be doing.‘Xavier, what’s going on?’ I ask my wolf.When he doesn’t respond, I have a moment where I begin to panic, but I force that away. I’m an Alpha. Alphas don’t have the luxury of panicking.I force my eyes open and look around. I’m in a hospital, which makes sense because Xavier is silent. Something happened to me or him.I begin to slowly move my body, trying to figure out if I’m injured. I feel very weak but not injured.The door to the room opens and a doctor comes in. The moment I see him, it all comes rushing back to me and I growl.“You sedated me.”“Yes, I did Alpha, and if you’re not cooperative, I have permission to sedate you again.”“On whose authority?”“Alpha Amelia’s,” he says, not sounding at all concerned that an Alpha is angry at being sedated.“Luna Amelia,” I growl, correcting him.He looks at me, then returns to looking over the machines
