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

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

Archer was there , hovering .

I said , Shes somewhere across the ocean .

East .

Get me access 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 want me to 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 .

Brought me down from the daze of rage I was in .

My children .

They needed me calm .

They didnt need me like .

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 doorframe to steady myself .

My children were finally here .

Safe .

Home .

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 bring me to me knees , but that did .

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

Seraphina came easily , clinging to me tightly .

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 time theyd 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 come with you to rescue her , Tristan said , wiping his nose on his sleeve .

We both need to come with 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 trust me to always be honest with you .

As honest as I can .

They were silent and wide eyed .

Seraphinas lilac eyes were so much like Auroras it hurt to look into them , but I 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 time to go .

I mentally confirmed Id heard him , but there was one person I needed to talk to before I could leave .
