Watching Ryley with our boys had my heart swelling with love. They may not be little anymore but they
still cravefort only a mother can provide. Aspen may spend a lot of his time with her but I also
spend quality time with the boys in the afternoons after their training. It makes me proud to watch them
train the little kids. And I enjoy sparring with them after they are all done. Channing is an excellent
fighter. They both are. They both have different techniques and they are bing stronger fighters,
together. Even I’ve learned a thing or two from Channing.
When Ryley was speaking with the boys Dr. Perry mind-linked me, telling me Ryley can go home to
rest. A nurse would be in soon to get her ready to leave. But it was Luca’s mind-link that had me on
edge. I ordered Alpha Dorian and his pack to be escorted off of my packnds. I would still send a
team but I didn’t want him anywhere near Ryley. She may not know it yet but she is mine.
The alpha had refused to leave the pack before speaking with her. He should be back at his pack
protecting them from another rogue attack, but instead, he is demanding to speak to the person he
tried to kill. I would have gone to the pack house to deal with this myself but Ryley woke up, and I didn’t
want to leave her. Now, Channing and she will have to have round-the-clock protection.
“If he touches either of them, he’s dead,” Gunner growled.
“Let’s get home then. I need a long hot bath,” Ryley said when I told her she could leave as long as she
rested.

“Are you willing to speak with Alpha Dorian?” I asked her.
“Mom, don’t. Nothing he has to say matters.” Channing told her.

“I won’t force or ask you to have a rtionship with him. And frankly, I don’t trust him being around you.
You are almost an adult and can decide who you’d like to have in your life. But there are answers I
need to move on with my life.” She said to her son. My heart ached for both of them, but especially her.
I couldn’t imagine the pain she went through after learning that the one person who had hurt her the
most was her fated mate. And he was the father of her child. She had to look at his face every day
when she looked at Channing.
I didn’t want her to give in to his demands and the thought of him being near her, made me want to rip
him apart. I knew he was going to try to wiggle his way back in. He’d be st*pid not to. Alphas are
stronger with their fated mates. So it makes me wonder why he wouldn’t have waited for his. Unless he
knew she was his and he
believed she was dead.
The boys and I left the room when a nurse came in with some clothes for Ryley. It was time to take her
home. But first, we had to see her ex. I had a bad feeling about her seeing the alpha again. Even
though I was excited to finally get Ryley into my bed. With the door locked so there would be no more
interruptions.
“The doctor said she needs to rest,” Gunner grumbled.
“ke, I don’t like this. I don’t want that f*cker anywhere near my mom,” Channing confessed,
interrupting my conversation with my wolf.
“I don’t like it either, but she has her mind made up. But I promise I won’t leave her side. Nothing is
going to happen to her.” I told him.
“I’m worried about the mate bond. I don’t want him to manipte her

into going back to him.”
“Over my dead body,” Gunner growled.
“Dad, that can’t happen, can it? He marked someone else, doesn’t that mean their bond is broken?”
Aspen questioned.
“The mate bond can be tricky. It’s designed to bring two souls together. She never rejected him but her
wolf didn’t im him when she saw him. Ryley is smart. I know she won’t fall for his b****hit again. She
has us, and we won’t let him get a hold of her again.” I reassured them.
“ke, he isn’t a good person or alpha. And I don’t want her to be sucked back into a world that almost
killed her. And me. She was right to keep me away from him. I’ve followed his pack with Grandad’s
help. He killed her family and stole her pack,” he eximed. Ryley opened up the door, stepping out
into the hallway wearing ck sweatpants and a grey sweatshirt. Channing quickly turned away, wiping
his eyes. He was scared for his mother. And I understand why. In all reality, Ryley should be dead. If he
wants her dead, he’ll try until he seeds.
The tension was palpable as she looked at all of us. She had to have known her son was scared of
losing her. Channing was also the rightful heir to his father’s pack. He was his firstborn child. This
coming to light was going to cause waves with the council.
“Mom, I don’t like this. Please don’t,” he pleaded with her. Her face softened as we approached him.
“There is nothing he could say to regain my trust. There are things that you don’t know and I need him
to know what I know. If I’m going down, he’sing with me. And then you’ll be taking over my pack.
Where you should have been this entire time. I should have challenged him for my pack back, but I was
scared he would take you from me. I’ ve been protecting you, your entire life and now it’s time to fight

what should have been yours. And I promise I’ll exin everything.” She told him.
“I don’t need a pack, Mom, and neither does my wolf, Bliz. He’s happy with the path I’ve set out for us.”
He said.
“I know you don’t need a pack, sweetie. But I should have protected my pack. I was young and scared
and now all I want is to take back everything that was mine. I work so hard to be the perfect leader for
my father and I won’t let the man who killed him think he won. It’s time for me to make a stand for my
wolf.” She caressed his cheek. I grabbed her other hand, squeezing it to let her know she wasn’t doing
this alone. I may not know the entire story but I will fight with her and for her until myst breath.
