ZARA
Dad decided we should walk the last part without shifting. I was walking in silence and could hear dad and grandpa agree to sit down and talk about what he knew the next day. Dad wants us to use the rest of the day to let me get settled in and for us all to rest. After a little I felt as if someone was pushing at my mind, like when Sierra talked to me, but still different.
‘It's our mate trying g to talk through the mindlink. Just think about how you let him into your mind and speak to him like that.’ Sierra tells me. I do as she says, and I hear Aiden’s voice in my head.
‘Welcome home, beautiful.’ He tells me
‘Thank you. I am nervous.’ I admit.
‘I know, I can feel it. But I will be by your side for as long as you want and need me.’ He promises.
‘You don’t want to go home to your family?’ I ask him, not wanting to take him away from them.

LAURA My little girl is home. I was shocked when I woke up that night. Zach called home to tell Liam they had found Zara. They had found my little girl. It had been a few very long days waiting for them to return after Liam had gone to help get her home safely. I was sitting in the kitchen with Rosa and Xander when Liam’s voice sounded in my head. I got happy and also excited because I knew that meant they weren’t far from home, and not long after, I felt a new member being added to the pack. ‘I had to make her a pack member again. She smelled like a rouge.’ Liam says through the mindlink. ‘I felt it. They must have done something when they took her.’ I say. ‘Yes, and she was a small kid only connected here because you were. Had she grown up here, the packlink would have grown with her. But now she is here. But baby, you need to be prepared.’ He says. ‘What do you mean?’ I ask, but somehow I know. I just don’t want to admit it. ‘It’s bad, baby. Her body is covered in scars. And
ZARA Aiden took my hand and we walked up the stairs to the second floor, to show me around. Having my hand in his feels good and makes me relax. “There are 3 bedrooms on this floor a private TV room and a small kitchen for small snacks drinks in the fridge stuff like that,” Aiden tells me as we are walking between the doors. He walks into the TV room and I look around, the room has a couch that looks soft to sit in and a huge TV on the wall. “We can change everything some will have it the way we would like. Colors on walls, furniture, and whatever you would want to change. And this counts for every room here, I want you to feel good here and feel safe.“ Aiden continues and I turn around and look at him. “I think we should decide together,” I tell him and he smiles at me. “I would love that.” He says and kisses my temple before he takes my hand and we leave the room. He shows me the small kitchen before walking towards the last 4 doors. He opens the first door and we walk inside.
hello allI just want to inform you that I by mistake got two new chapters mixed up with each other. and added chapter 20 before chapter 19.I fixed this and am only waiting for the editor to accept the changes.I apologize for the confusionalso I read in some comments there was a bit of confusion about Aiden. for those who read the first book "the king and the rejected she-wolf" a while back you would know Aiden as the boy Kai that Mack adopted. I changed the name. and have done so in both stories, so any future readers won't get confused.again. thank you for reading and for following the book//Sal
ZARAI woke up feeling the sun falling on me and opened my eyes. First, I was s little confused as I was lying on a couch with Aiden lying behind me with his arms around me. We must have fallen asleep while watching the movie.I didn’t think I would ever be comfortable with a man being close to me, and honestly, I do not like when someone touches me. But it is different with Aiden. He makes me feel calm and safe, and that even more after he fought Alpha Chase for me. I know a lot of it must be the matebond, but it’s more than that, I think. I slowly try to get Aiden’s arms away, so I can go to the bathroom.“Mm. Don’t leave.” Aiden mumbles tiredly.“I need to use the bathroom,” I whisper softly, not sure he heard me, but he moves his arm so I can stand up.I run into the bathroom and do my business before I take a closer look. Looking at the shower, I really want to take a hot shower,
ZARA Everyone walked into the big living room and sat down on couches and chairs. I sit on a big comfortable chair with Aiden sitting on the armrest. Dad and mom are sitting on another chair my brothers are on the couch with grandpa and Rosa. Dad said Aiden’s mom and dad wanted to be here too, but dad had said no to that. “First Zara I want you to know that no one here will judge you. We just want to know what you have been through so we better can help you and be there for you. We all love you and care about you.” I Nod my head and take a deep breath. “The people I was with told me to call them Master and Mistress.” I start, and slowly, I begin telling them about how I, as a child, was always kept in my room and ever only got out when the Witch was trying g to do something. I still don’t understand what it was. I also tell them about when the Mistress wanted me to begin cleaning the house and begin to learn cooking. I
AIDEN Rage. It is all I feel right now. I am furious. And I am far from the only one. Everyone in the room is after hearing what Zara told us.“I want revenge. I am going to rip apart that guard and the fucking bastard that kidnapped her,” I say, hearing Zeus’s voice mixed with mine. He is as furious as I am.“The guard is all yours, Aiden. I know that is one revenge you need to have and do for her. But the Alpha and his supposed Luna is mine to kill.” Liam says.“No, dad, they are ours to kill. We do that together.” Zack says, and Liam looks at him before nodding his head.“We are going to burn that place down. There is no way everyone there didn’t know about her.” Xan says, and that surprises us all a little because Xander is always so calm.The room goes quiet, and Liam is calming Laura down, who is sobbing and hurting from hearing what her daughter has been thr
*warning, the chapter contains the memory of sexual abuse*ZARAIt has been a week since they had returned to the pack, and it has been an emotional week. I am sitting outside in the garden in front of the house, thinking about how things with Aiden feel right. He had existed on sleeping on the couch in the main room while I slept in the bedroom. And after the night two days ago, I was happy he had been so close.*FLASHBACK*I had gone to bed after a long day and went to bed so exhausted that I quickly fell asleep, being sucked into a nightmare.**DREAM**I am being pushed into my room and right onto my bed, landing on my stomach. I try to turn around but am stopped by Samson’s big hands holding me down. Before I can do anything, I am being tied to the four bedposts, and my arms and legs are being spread out. Then I hear the laughter of the mistress, and
AIDEN “Mark me.” She whispers.I look at Zara, shocked. I know we talked about it while still on the run. And she had agreed, but I also know from the stories gold how intimate it can be, so I chose not to pressure her about it. I knew Laura and Zara had talked about it because Zara was never told anything about it. But here she stands, as beautiful as ever, asking me to mark her.“Zara, are you sure? I don’t want you to do this because of Mel or feel pressured to do it.”“I want to, but I am not ready for it, you know, so I understand if you don’t want to mark me, I won’t be angry. She whispers and looks down to the floor.‘Don’t make mate sad.’ Zeus growls in my head.‘I don’t want to make her sad. But marking her. I am scared ill loose control, Zeus. I don’t want to hurt her.’ I tell him.‘I won’t let you hurt her
