All Chapters of Alpha Raphael's Second Chance Mate : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

RAPHAELDamon drops the information on my desk and stands back.I read through it twice.It's not enough to act on. But it's enough to tell me that Serena's presence here is not what she's representing it as. Enough to tell me I need to watch her more carefully than I have been.I put the paper down."Where did this come from?" I asked."Someone outside the pack," Damon answered "Someone I knew back then,"he added. "How certain are they?""Certain enough that they came to me with it," Damon says. "They wouldn't have if they weren't sure."I look at the paper again.Serena had contact with Kael's pack three weeks before she arrived here. Not one contact,it was multiple contacts. judging by this history, I don't think it was just a mere contact. For some reason, there seems to be some loopholes.I don't know what this is all about, I desperately wanted to figure it out at least. That way, I would be able to know what is wrong and know how to go about it.This was three weeks befor

NORA Wren finds me in the small sitting room of the main corridor.She closes the door behind her and just stands there with her hands together in front of her and a look on her face that I don't see often.It's uncertain."I need to tell you something," she starts. "And I'm not sure I should. But I can't hold it back."She tells me, while still glaring at me in an uncertain manner. I put down the file I'm holding and give her my full attention.She pulls the chair across from me and sits on the edge of it. Leans forward a little and keeps her voice low even though nobody else is in the room."I overheard Raphael and Damon two nights ago," she says. "In the study room. The door wasn't fully closed."I wait for her to continue, at the mention of Alpha Rapheal's a Surges if adrenaline rushed through me ."He's been investigating your background." She watches my face when she says it. "Not in a bad way though. That's what I kept telling myself before I decided to come tell you. It's n

NORA I wake up at two in the morning and the ceiling is just there staring back at me.I turn over,close my eyes again. Nothing happens. My mind is already filled with different thoughts and it's not stopping for sleep.I think about Marcus.I think about Raphael investigating my background without telling me.I think about Sera being too quiet and the way she speaks .I think about my son sleeping down the hall and the specific shade of his eyes.I get up after my eyes refuse to close on me.The corridor is dark and quiet. My feet are cold on the floor. I wrap my arms around myself and walk toward the kitchen because there is nothing else to do at two in the morning except make something warm and wait for my brain to tire itself out.I push the kitchen door open.Raphael is already there.He's standing at the counter with a cup in his hand, jacket off, sleeves pushed up. He looks up when I come in. Neither of us says anything for a second.Just two people who both thought they wer

RAPHAEL Elder Matthias doesn't waste time.He's already seated when I walk into the council room, three other elders are seated all around the table, their eyes viewing every part of me as I walk in.The atmosphere in the council room is a bit tense. I take a quick glass on each and everyone of them, before finally settling into my seat properly."Thank you for coming, Alpha," Matthias mutters, folding his hands on the table. His tone was quite different from before, more like, he's here for an urgent matter . "We'll keep this brief and short."He said , and I only nodded my head in acknowledgement.“The pack is in Chaos, things are falling apart. Questions are left unanswered and everyone, including myself and your mum is very confused" The other elders nodded in affirmations to his words .He paused for a little, glare at the elders and when he realized everyone is in sync with him, he said. “Your fated mate has been in this pack for the past months, you were supposed to choose a

NORAEli is in a good mood this morning.A really good one.He has been sitting on the garden blanket for a while now and touching the grass with both hands while also making random little sounds to himself like he understands something the rest of us don't.And honestly, I've just been sitting here watching him.Because nothing feels better than this.Watching him this small and this happy. This unbothered by everything happening around us, is quite pleasing. I still couldn't believe it, I finally got to be with my son.I had thought I wouldn't see him ever again, but Raph made it possible and I can't help but be grateful to him. Sera is oddly quiet in my head and I don't know why.She's never this calm and quiet, she always has something to say and nag me about. She would have uttered some words, the moment she realizes we are thinking about Raph, like what happened a few seconds ago.Of course, I am usually irritated by her theories but right now, I am bothered by her silence too
