Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Chapter 0569

I was never meant to have the Clear Waters, I was

always meant to take on Dad's original legacy...the Amber Desert.

With Cleo by my side.

We would be close to her family pack, which is important to Cleo...she is extremely close to her Dad and brother, and she would want to support Ares in the years he takes over as Alpha of the Red Thorn pack.

This felt like divine providence.

"No, this feels right. Like this is where I am meant to be. The alliance can't deny my request, being that this pack is in your bloodline Dad, and that my mate was already the luna. For the first time in a long time, I know I am where I am meant to be."

"So, Kit and I are taking on the Clear Waters? I don't know..." Josie bites down on her lower lip, the feeling of hesitation hitting me through the triplet sibling bond.

"If this is what you want, I will be by your side the entire way Red. It's fitting that a moon blessed wolf should return home don't you think?"

By the time 5am arrived everyone just fell asleep in the spots they were sat in.

Silence finally descended upon the alpha house, Mum's uncontrollable sobs from upstairs faded out, and I gave into that call to sleep, to recharge my mind.

I can't have been asleep long when I jolt awake, to find my lap empty...coldness washing over me from the lack of her touch.
