The Alpha's Return I’m not the same person I was back then
Arabella’s POVAs Margret sat there, her wrists bound with silver, I couldn’t help but wonder what my father would have done in this situation. Had she been someone we hadn’t known, it would have been easier. Or at least I think it would have.‘Do whatever it takes to keep you, and this pack safe.’ Those words once again flittering through my mind.Leo may not be a part of my pack officially, but once this was over, I’d make sure he was. Along with Susie and Sara should they agree.Margaret appeared surprisingly composed, but that composure wouldn’t last long. No longer would she view me as a fragile, innocent woman once this is over. No, if she survives, she’d fear me.My gaze shifted towards Susie, who meticulously fastened chains to the base of Margaret's chair. A sense of satisfaction radiated from her once she completed the task.A knock came from the door before it swung open. The guard from earlier wheeled in a tray of instruments covered with a white cloth. Thanking him, he tu
The Alpha's Return GET UP!
Leo’s POVBy the time everyone was out and on their way to safety, I knew it was time to make myself scarce. But before that could happen, I needed to check if Arabella had gotten my message.As I rushed up the stairs that led to the observation room, my heart pounded in my chest. Reaching the doorway, I wasted no time in running to the computer I’d used to send the message. I must have refreshed the page at least five times, but still nothing.I double-checked the email I had sent it to, but it was correct. So she should have had it by now. Fear seeped into me as I began to think of the worst possible outcome.‘She’s probably preparing for the psychos, she will get it. Now let’s go.’ Shadow was convinced everything would be fine, but I knew different. I knew something wasn’t right.When a notification popped up, I knew my fears were about to become a reality.‘Target obtained, threat neutralised and on way back to base.’My entire body began to heat up as Shadow’s anger bled into me.
The Alpha's Return Truly vulnerable
Arabella’s POVIt was when my head banged against something hard, that I regained consciousness. Everything was dark and fuzzy for a moment, before the faces of two men lit up. That’s when I realised the next thing. We were in a moving vehicle, a van.My wrists were tied behind my back, tightly bounding me to something on the vans inner panel. But thankfully, it wasn’t anything silver.As I tried to quickly and quietly loosen the coarse rope, my mind flooded back to the last thing I remembered. My heart hammered in my chest as flashes of being in wolf form entered my mind. The last thing I needed, was to be restrained with men… naked.Trapped and unable to break free from my restraints, I focused my attention on the sounds permeating the confined space of the van. A soft, rhythmic snore emanated from one of the men, indicating his obliviousness to the fact I was now awake. Meanwhile, the other man remained engrossed in the glow of his mobile phone, his eyes fixated on whatever content
The Alpha's Return Every bit as gratifying as we had imagined
Leo’s POVShadow's ears pricked up, detecting the distant rumble of the approaching van long before it came into view. My heart pounded in my chest, and with every breath, I struggled to draw in air, my lungs laboring as fear of what could happen, began to sink in. Yet, amidst this overwhelming dread, my concern was not for my own safety. I was willing to put my life on the line and die tonight, just as long as Arabella could live to see another day. And for once, Shadow wholeheartedly agreed.As the van made its turn, Shadow sprang into motion. We had rehearsed our strategy repeatedly, and despite its uncertainties, it was the best we could come up with to minimise any risk of our mate, becoming harmed.Shadow swiftly scaled the vehicle, positioning himself over the central hatch. As it swung open, he lunged at the man emerging, his teeth and claws tearing into him. The man's tactical gear might have been bulletproof, but it offered no protection against Shadow's ferocious attack.Th
The Alpha's Return What now?
Arabella’s POV“You do not know how glad I am to see you.” Leo’s forehead rested on mine as he whispered. “I’m sorry Arabella. I’m sorry for everything that I’ve put you through, for everything my family, has put you through. I love you, Arabella. I love you, and I’m never letting you go again.” Tears streamed down my face as I listened to his heartfelt words.I knew I loved him, and he me, but to hear him confess his feelings, even after I gave him up to the council, had my heart swelling."I love you too, Leo," I whispered, my voice choking as I tried to hold myself together. "I'm sorry too, for everything. But we'll get through this together, won't we?"“I promise you we will.” Leo lifted my head back up to face him, before placing a gentle kiss on my lips. “We have to go, there will more of them arriving any minute.” But as those words left him, what looked like lots of red dots, covered the pair of us.“Leo…”“Stay with me.” His eyes bore into mine before he stepped to my side, t
The Alpha's Return Never leaving you again
Arabella’s POVI thought I’d been dreaming. Until I woke up.Opening my eyes, I found Leo’s staring back at me. That alone bought me comfort. But to then feel the sparks that tingled my skin, as Leo's thumb traced soothing circles on my cheek, I’d missed it. The sensation sent shivers down my spine, reminding me of the comfort and security I had missed during our time apart."How are you feeling?" His voice was laced with concern as he spoke, his eyes filled with guilt.I couldn't help but let out a small chuckle, despite the pain. "Like you melted my flesh," I replied, trying to lighten the mood.Leo's eyes widened in surprise, his worry momentarily replaced by a hint of amusement. "Well, I apologise for any unintended side effects," he replied with a sheepish grin.I couldn't help but smile back in the moment of silence that followed. “No worries," I replied, my voice filled with genuine appreciation. "I'd endure a thousand burns if it meant having you by my side."Leo's expression
The Alpha's Return Gone in an instant
Arabella’s POVI could see the surprise written across his face, but I meant it.“Arabella, you don’t owe me an apology.”“Yes, I do. I saw you holding my mother’s lifeless body, and blamed her death on you. I saw you as nothing more than the son of the people that killed my parents, and to look at you, it sickened me. After I rejected you, I knew I had made a mistake, but I was too stubborn to even attempt at fixing it.”Within seconds Leo’s lips smashed into mine, his tongue intertwining with mine before he pulled away."Thank you. Now, as much as I'd enjoy hearing you admit your stubbornness and mistakes all day, we really must get moving."Leo grasped my hand and together we left the protective shelter the cave had provided us.The morning was cold and wet, the rain flooding the pathways. I had asked Leo what it was we were looking for, and all he would tell me is that it was a purple berry.I wanted nothing more than to be able to connect with my wolf again, but with the time pass
The Alpha's Return He always seemed to know what to say
Arabella’s POVIt took us almost all day to find the missing pack member’s amongst, the rumble. Two were dead when we found them, but the other two, were thankfully ok. They had a few scapes, but they were alive.“Alpha, I’ve found accommodation for the pack house staff. The manager at Moon Lodge has agreed to put them up.”“Thank you, Kate.” I thought that was it, that it was the end of the conversation. But by the way she stood there fidgeting, it was clear there was something else. “What?”“I know this timing is awful, and I know what I’m about to say might come off as rude because of how we’ve been. But I need to know…”“What is, Kate? I’m sorry, but I don’t have all day.”“I need to know what Harry, said to you. I know what ever it was landed him in the cells, and I’ve asked him but he said it didn’t matter…”“Then drop it, because what’s going on now, is more important than any issues you may, or may not have, in your relationship.”“Arabella, please. I need to know.” I stood th
