Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

hapter 149 DANE Watch him, I snapped to my warriors.

Archer was there, hovering.

I said, Shes somewhere across the ocean.

East.

Getaccess to a private jet that can fly to France tonight.

When we land there, Holden might have a better idea of where we need to go.

Then I followed Trajan.

I couldnt get Aurora and that drowning darkness out of my mind.

But as much as I wanted to tear out of the pack house looking for her, I had felt how far she was It would take at least an hour or two to arrange everything for travel.

Before rescuing her, she would wantto make sure our children were okay.

The pack house felt colder than the rain soaked outdoors as I stalked along, Trajan a respectful few steps behind me.

How are they? I asked.

Besides that theyve been imprisoned in the dark for weeks and just watched you killed and their mother kidnapped by the embodiment of darkness ? Fine.

Chapter 149 2/5 I might have snarled at the tone, but instead, the sarcasm grounded me.

Broughtdown from the daze of rage I was in .

My children.

They neededcalm.

They didnt needlike.

this.

I pu d open the door to Auroras rooms, then the bedroom.

the twins shared.

There were two twin beds lit by the glow of a nightlight.

Celia, our healer, rose from sitting on one of the beds.

Wheres- ? My gaze caught on the other bed.

Both of the twins were huddled in it together, hugging each other.

Their wide eyes reflected lingering terror.

I hadnt seen them in so long, I had to put a hand on the doorfrto steady myself.

My children were finally here.

Safe.

H.

It was like getting half of my heart back.

But with Aurora gone, it had happened just as the other half of my heart was ripped away.

Tristans lip quivered, and Seraphina clung tightly to his hand.

Daddy ? she said in a thin, tired voice that still held tears.

Not many things in this world can bringtoknees, but that did.

I went to the side of their bed and knelt beside it, gathering them both in my arms.

Seraphina ceasily, clinging totightly.

Tristan was hesitant, but as soon as I touched him he flung Chapter 149 3/5 himself into my arms as well. Mommys gone ! he cried.

I tried.

to be so brave but now Mommy is gone! I pressed them close.

In the short ttheyd been here, someone had bathed them and put them in clean clothes.

I would make sure the clothes theyd been stuck in for weeks in Bro Forest got burned.

I know.

I rose, holding them both in my arms, and settled back on the bed with them both in my lap.

I hadnt understood how much Id missed them and how much fear I had been refusing to feel until right now.

I shuddered, speechless for a long moment.

Celia had left, but Trajan cased into the room and leaned against the wall near the door.

He folded his arms across his chest, watchful but silent.

Youre going to get her back, right? Seraphina sniffled through tears.

I know you can get her back! Yeah, and I have to cwith you to rescue her, Tristan said, wiping his nose on his sleeve.

We both need to cwith you.

Mommy needs us ! Seraphina agreed.

Shit.

What did you say to kids this brave? They deserved everything.

But obviously there was no way they were coming with me.

Its late, Trajan rumbled from near the door.

You two have been through too much.

You need to sleep.

Chapter 149 We cant sleep until we rescue Mom! Tristan practically.

wailed.

4/5 Maybe others would have been impatient, or thought he was spoiled, but given the amount of fear and exhaustion he felt, it was a miracle he wasnt completely broken and screaming.

I pulled back and looked at them seriously.

I wasnt used to children.

I didnt know any way to speak to them except how Id speak to an adult.

So I did, albeit in a softer, gentler tone ..

Listen, you two.

Youve been through something terrible.

Im not going to disrespect that by lying to you.

You can always trustto always be honest with you.

As honest as I can.

They were silent and wide eyed.

Seraphinas lilac eyes were so much urt to le like Auroras it hurt to look into them, but refused to look away. Your mom has been taken by a thing I dont understand.

She was taken far away, across the world.

Im going to go and get her back.

And us! Tristan said.

I gave him an even more serious look.

You two are my heirs.

What I need from you more than anything is to stay here, in Blue Ridge.

I need you to look out for the pack.

Tears welled up in Seraphinas eyes, and Tristan buried his face in my chest.

Despite the lingering awkwardness I felt, a surge of protectiveness welled inside me.

These were my children.

I would do whatever it took to make them feel safe.

To make sure Chapter 149 they were safe.

Tristans eyes shone.

1 ... I can look out for the pack.

And youre going to bring Mommy back? Seraphina asked.

Promise? 5/5 Seraphinas lower lip trembled, and I gently wiped away her tears with the pad of my thumb Were a family, and we stick together, no matter what .

I promise, your mother is coming back.

Alpha, Archer said into my mind, Your plane is ready.

Alpha Coleridge is ... contained.

Its tto go.

I mentally confirmed Id heard him, but there was one person.

yongeren el Kneeded to talk to before could leave.
