Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 200
Sage POV
After everyone left I made more coffee and we sat out the back talking. Nora came over feeling a bit lonely without Zane and her siblings were too busy playing their video games. We watched the kids play and Marabella eventually fell asleep on the picnic rug and kat went and laid her down inside while we watched Kyan and Jonah sword fight with some twigs they found while running around the backyard and along the treeline before Mateo called them over, not liking them that close to the forest edge.
“We can always go out the front, the kids can climb the willow tree and it is shadier for them to play” I tell Mateo and he nods, before scooping up Eziah who was ripping out handfuls of grass.
“Come on boys” Mateo calls out to them, waving them over. They stop what they are doing and race over to us skidding to a stop on the grass in front of me.
“Where has Ella gone?” Kyan asks, looking around.
“Ella?” I ask.
“Marabella, ” He says.
“She is sleeping, ” Mateo tells him.
“Come on, you both should get a drink, your little faces are so red” I tell them walking inside with them. I make them a drink of cordial each before washing their faces with a wet cloth to try to cool them down.
“Want to climb the willow tree?” I ask them and they rush toward the front of the house. Following them, I couldn’t see them. I was looking up the stairs when I heard hushed voices making me look in the living room to find Kat watching Marabella sleep in her fold out bed. Jonah and Kyan staring down at her.
“Why does she make that face?” Jonah asks at Marabella’s quivering lip as she sleeps.
“She can hear them?” Kyan says, reaching his hand out toward her.
“Boys, come on. Let her sleep ” I whisper to them when Kyan reaches down touching her cheek, black mist rushes up his arm and his eyes turn black. The sight sends goosebumps up my arms and the room feels electrified when he suddenly pulls his hand back.
“There, all better now” Kyan says. “What did you do?” Kat asks him.
“Took it from her, they were scaring her” “What were?” Kat asks, looking at me.
“The shadows, come on, I want to climb this tree” Kyan says before pecking Marabella’s head.
“Sweet dreams, Ella” He says before grabbing Jonah’s arm and tugging him past me to the front door.

on what it would be like to become Luna, everything I thought my life would be was wrong. But I get it now, I was so angry at her for lying to me, for so long that’s all I could see was that betrayal, even with dad. He kept what I was from me, so many secrets but I get it now. I know they did it to protect

now, I just wished I realised it sooner. I spent so long angry at her, angry at everyone that I forgot for a second how much I loved her, what she sacrificed for me, who she was. Same with dad, he left me

my mother even now, he doesn’t understand how I forgave her, he is thankful for what she did, but he never forgave her. Mateo understands but still I put too much
but that’s ok because she would be there to catch me when I fall. Now I have to catch myself and everyone else and not being able to tell Ezra and Mateo certain things, it is so lonely” She whispers the last words. Closing her eyes and rubbing her temples like she had a headache before opening her eyes to look at me, I could see her pain, she wore it so plainly, I was surprised
I realise I am a stranger within myself. Trying to live up to everyone else’s expectation and I lost myself in it” She says, I felt terrible for her. I couldn’t imagine what it would be like to be responsible for not just a pack but every pack, while trying to raise her kids and be a
