Alpha’s Betted Bride (Gabriella)
Chapter 77

CHAPTER 77

I slammed open the door and walked through the hallways with fast steps. My shoulders were lifted and I pushed past anyone standing in my way until they eventually jumped aside on their own. I found my parents in the dining hall along with the pack members

"Everybody out!" I growled. They all stood and hurried out with their heads hanging. My mother stood from her chair with a shocked expression and my father straightened his back in the chair, "Son, what is-"

"You do not get to talk. You get to listen now. I growled and walked up to them. I slammed my hands down on the table, trying to calm myself before I spoke.

When I looked up at them I saw my y mom's hitched breath and my father slowly placed his glass down.

"No lies, no elaborate stories-only the truth." They were silent.

"Do 1 have a sister?" They both choked on the air they breathed in.

"Anser me! Did you birth a daughter?"

"Yes," my mother said and raised her head, sticking her chin out and narrowing her eyes.

I exhaled and stared at the woman who had kept this

is massive secret all these years.

"But she died," 1 was half-turned about to walk out when she said those words.

"What did you say?" My mom pursed her lips and wiped a tear that had fallen on her cheek. "She was about to turn four years old, playing out by the park with your brother and some of the other pups with their parents watching over them. I and your father had a meeting and were going to see them a dinner. Asher came running inside followed by Clare- Annas mom. I still hear his screams when I sleep, at the top of his lungs he yelled out for me. They barged into the office and the second I saw their faces I knew something was wrong. Clare told me what had happened and Asher was crying uncontrollably. They were both so young but that day everything just... fell apart. She had walked off, away from everyone and when they went to look for her they spotted blood. Nobody found her," She said and stared into the air. I could see the memories in her eyes and when she came back too she violently wiped away the

tears.

was pregnant with you at the time and the grief along with the hormones sent me into a darkness that I thought I would never escape." She smiled and cupped my hand between hers.

"But then you came and I saw your little face and I vowed to protect you from all evil in the world. You saved my life where I couldn't save hers," she cried.

"Mom-" her eyes glistened from the tears.

she's alive." Her eyes widened and she let go of my hand as she turned to my father who stood from his chair.

My parents ran into my office where the witch was waiting. She turned around and faced us as we came in.

"Is it true? Is she alive?" My mom asked.

The witch raised her hand and showed her palm and my mom gaspsl.

"A dove," she cried out.

"When your mom got pregnant with your sister, a dove landed on her leg as she sat in the garden and one day it disappeared. When sister was then born, the same dove landed on the window sill outside. The dove showed itself to your mother and the baby every day on and off until eventually, one day it was just gone. It was the same day that we lost our daughter." My father said and squeezed my shoulder. "I hoped to see the dove every day, hoping for a sign that she was alright but it never came. Not until now," she said as she smiled through the tears.

"What was her name?" My y mom looked up from the witch's hand and gazed into my eyes.

"Erin, her name is Erin."

"Where is she- what can we do to help?" My mom asked and turned to the witch.

"She's with Gabby, in Asher's pack and if she tries to leave she will die." I said. My father removed his hand and cleared his throat. I saw that his eyes were glimmering, his lips pressed together and his jaw clenched.

"What can we do to help?" He asked with a dark voice that tried to mask his emotions.

"You can't. I'm working on reversing the spell but as I told the Alpha, it won't take effect for a few days,"

"But you're attacking tomorrow," my mom whispered and I nodded my head.

"Okay, so you'll get Gabby out and we will go back for Erin," she said.

"Gabby won't go without the girls," I said.

"Girls? As in more than one?"

7" My father asked.

"Apparently As

Asher and his men kidnapped several girls and holds them at his house." My father growled and my mom's eyes started glowing. She calmed her wolf by massaging the bridge of her nose. "Kidnapped them for what?" She asked. Oh shit.

This just got double personal. He not only had Gabby but he had my sister- our sister. I wondered if he knew.

I and looked at the witch hoping she would steer the conversation in another direction.

"Not important," I said at

"He is right. The important thing is getting them all out without any of them being harmed. If you go there and kill Asher but Gabriella doesn't come home with you, you won't get a second chance. His men will surely kill her before you ever have the chance to save

her again,"

That meant we needed to replace a way to free the girls before the fight began. Or else I would lose my mate and that wasn't an option. If I had to go in there and drag her out myself I would.

And my sister...well, I would like to get to know her. This shit just got bigger and bigger by the minute and I wasn't hoping for any more surprises now.

I stepped out of my office and heard a smash coming from upstairs 1 looked up and saw Edmund making out with Sam. Her legs were straddled around his waist. Her shirt was off and her pants were hanging off her a*s as they walked to his room. Edmund's eyes locked with mine and it was go time.

"Nick I want you to put two of your warriors outside Edmund's room." He bowed his head and went to give the order.

CHAPTER 77

I had to keep my mind straight but it was hard. I had a sister. What the f*ck?

"Hey, where's Noah?" I

?" I asked one of the warriors.

He shook his head and looked around.

"No idea, Alpha, I haven't seen him."

Cassy came walking into the house and I walked up to her.

"Have you seen Noah?"

"Uh, yes. I think he's outside," I walked out and saw him waking up the pathway.

"Are you ready or what?" I asked him but he looked confused.

"Ready for what?"

"We're supposed to go scouting around the pack, remember?" I asked and walked up to him as I searched his face. Noah shook his head and laughed nervously.

"Oh yeah, I'm ready, let's go," he tapped my shoulder but something was off.

1 turned around and looked into the house. Cassy's eyes followed him as he walked up the stairs and turned the corner.

Cassy looked at me and I saw the same worry in her eyes that I felt inside. She felt it too, something was wrong with Noah.

"Did you sense something weird when you talked to him?" She asked me when she came out.

"I did, you?"

"Yes, he hasn't been himself today..." I furrowed my brows and tilted my head to the side.

"How well do you know him exactly?" She parted her lips and something quickly flashed in her eyes before it was gone. But she couldn't hide her bodies tells, like the way her cheeks heated up and turned red or her breathing getting harder.

"Not so well really," she said and shrugged her shoulders.

Noah came walking down and

nd his eve

eyes darted back and forth. He saw me and Cassy and walked right past us.

"Hey, Noah!" He stopped and looked over his shoulder.

-oh,

y man. Are you ready to go?" He asked with a bright smile. This would be interesting.
