Chapter 23- Amara



Chapter 23- Amara

Leo looked like someone slapped him in the face. Hearing that the mate of your son died before he

could even meet her is truly devastating.

“There is one more thing we suspect.” Earl growled.

Ajax just looked away… ashamed?

“What is it?” I asked.

Please don’t be any worse news than this one.

“We think Aria is my second chance mate.” Ajax said looking at the ground.

He didn’t say Zeno and his. Oh dear! How much do they hate him?

“Why do you think that?” Leo asked.

He looked hopeful and so did the others from the pack.

“From what I think he started bullying Aria since the school started after that summer. As I said earlier

that I could feel his emotions more and more these past few months. I noticed that the darkness inside

him would diminish to almost nothing when Aria would be near him or in the same building. I had

started to look over him since I first felt those depressing feeling. The same goes for me. Whenever

you two would come here to train, I would stay nearby and it made me feel calm and happy.” Ajax

explained.

“That might be because she is a spirit walker.” Steven objected.

I don’t think he likes the idea of Aria being mated to Zeno. Nor do I.

“I thought that too at first but I am sure now that she is my mate.” Ajax said firmly.

Ryder growled.

“I don’t want my precious niece with that bullying git. I support your decision Ajax.”

“Thank you papa. I would rather die like this than put Aria through that situation. She deserves better

than that insolent human.”

Ajax looked determined but I could see an underline of sadness in his eyes. He is one strong willed

Alpha. Only if he could have a better human.

“Please. Don’t do this.” Leo begged. “He will die due to that darkness. Give him one chance. I know

what he did is unforgivable but… I can’t lose my son.”

His painful sobs raked the silent clearing. The other shifters hung their heads in shame. I walked up to Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

him and hugged him as he cried on my shoulder. It is not his fault that he has to go through this horror

of begging for his child’s life. There are so many atrocious things parents have to do for their children

and they are always ignorant of it. The parents usually end up paying up for their reckless mistakes.

“Tyler.” I called.

“Yes.” Leo’s voice went deeper as Tyler surfaced.

“What do you think about this situation?”

“No matter how much I am ashamed of Zeno, he is still my son Amy.”

That was enough for me to know his answer.

“Give him a chance princess.” Papa’s voice rang in my head.

I know everyone heard it in the mind link.

“But what about my daughter? Doesn’t she deserve to be happy?”

This time no one spoke but I had made my decision.

“Call a meeting including every single person of the pack at seven tonight. Mates, parents, children,

every single one of them. It will be held at the meeting house. We will talk there. You may leave.”

My voice was sharp and full of authority. I know they could feel the fury rolling out of me in waves. The

shifters left immediately. I could feel their happiness. Of course, they are happy. It’s their children after

all that are getting a safe passage. I couldn’t even be mad at them.

If they think I will just sacrifice my daughter, then oh how wrong they are. One wrong move and I will kill

that bastard with my bare hands. No body messes with my family.

“Calm down love.” Steven pulled me in his arms.

I buried my face in his chest, inhaling his scent to calm myself down. A sob made its way out of my

mouth on its own accords and that was it. I broke down.

Steven just held me close and let me cry. I could feel Ryder standing right behind me. I turned around

and hugged him close.

“Mom if Aria doesn’t want to be with that prick, we won’t let that piece of shit force her into it. We

promise.” Earl said.

Every single one of them nodded. Even Ajax. Poor pup can’t even be with his mate because he has a

crappy human.

“I will tell her to give this relationship a chance Ajax. I don’t want you to be away from your mate.”

“Thanks Aunty Amy but don’t force her. She deserves to be happy. Don’t give in to any of their

demands. Aria is more important than anything and anyone.”

“You are a perfect mate to our daughter Ajax. I couldn’t ask for anyone else. Only if Zeno hadn’t been

such an asshole.” Steven hissed.

“Love lets go home. We should eat something before going to the meeting. I have a feeling, it is going

to be a long one.” Steven said leading me to the trees.

“I apologize for what you had to see alpha.” I said turning towards the alpha as he and his pack were

still there.

“I can understand your concerns my lady. It was not an inconvenience. Just to make it clear, I support

Alpha Ryder and the pups’ decision. That filth does not deserve happiness but for Ajax’s sake, give him

a chance. That pup does not deserve this agony.” The alpha said.
