Chapter 63: *“We need to know…..“*
Damien and Xander were walking to their dorm, on a break between written exams, when
Xander suddenly collapsed to the ground. Clutching his chest, Xander let out a guttural cry
of pain. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Damien knelt on the ground next to Xander, wrapping an arm around his shoulders. “What happened?”
“Beatrice!” He gasped out. “Something happened to Beatrice!“.
Damien looked at Xander with a worried frown, his Beta was pale and covered in a sheen of sweat. Getting a better grip on Xander, Damien helped him
As they walked, Xander slowly gained back his strength, enough so that he was able to walk the last hallway to Damien’s room unassisted. “The pain has lessened, someone is there helping her.” Xander said, relief in his hoarse voice.
“That’s good. Who do you want us to call first.” Damien asked, after his friend sat weakly in one of his sitting room chairs.
Xander leaned his head back against the chair, his eyes closed and a frown on his face. “My father, he already knows Beatrice is my fated mate.”
Damien nodded and pulled out his phone to make the call. “Damien? Why did you call, is something the matter?” Boris asked when the call connected.
“Hey, Uncle Boris, there is something that is causing some concern. Do you know if anything has happened to Beatrice?” Damien asked him.
There was a moment of silence from Boris’s side. “Is Xander all right, did he feel something just now?”
Boris’s words had Damien stiffening, something did happen to Beatrice, and Boris knew what it was. “He collapsed on our way back to the dorms from o
Xander, listening to the conversation, had lifted his head. His gaze was sharp, his expression hard. Boris let out a sigh of resignation. “I don’t know if that’s a good idea.”
Xander was now on his feet, and walking to where he stood by the window. “I think it
would be a bad idea not to tell us, Xander isn’t going to let this go.” Damien told Boris. Damien was trying to maintain a calm demeanor, something made wolf when he suddenly became agitated.
‘Back off Zane, I need to focus.‘ Damien told his wolf. Zane only responded with an angry snarl, surprising Damien.
“It’s complicated.” Boris said. “What happened to Beatrice ties into Matthew being forced to reject Alora this morning. I’m currently investigating it, but Sa
Inside Damien, Zane let out a furious snarl at Sarah’s name. “We need to know what happened to Beatrice.” Damien said, no longer asking.
Xander’s eyes were starting to glow with his wolf, after all, this had to do with his mate. “Sarah had Beatrice, Lauren, and Agatha bound to her with Black Sarah, and using that control, Sarah forced Beatrice to reject Xander. With Matt’s help, we removed the spells from the three girls, but it had some uninte
“What effects?” Xander demanded, the growl of his wolf in his voice.
“Xander?” Boris asked.
“He’s here with me, I brought him back to my room after he collapsed before calling you.” Damien explained quickly, then demanded, “What effects?”
Boris cleared his throat. “When the spells were broken, the females abruptly came back to consciousness, fully aware of everything they had done while under the spell’s influence.” Boris paused to clear his throat again. “
Xander was shaking with suppressed rage, his eyes glowing. “Thank you, Uncle Boris, we’ll talk more later.” Damien said, then ended the call before Bo
Damien could see Xander was on the verge of losing it. Grabbing Xander’s shoulders, Damien forced him to look him in the eye. “Calm down.” He dema
Xander’s entire body shuddered twice before his eyes stopped glowing, and he visibly relaxed. Xander had to clear his throat twice before he could spea
Damien didn’t say anything in response, just patted him on his shoulders and let him go. Turning to look out the window at the grounds of the school, loo
Zane growled. ‘Our mate is hurting, her heart hurts and we are not there to offer comfort.‘
Knowing Alora was hurting put Damien on edge. ‘We will be calling her tonight, it might not be the same as being there, but we can at least give her our

“Oh, Alora, my heart hurts so much for you.” Luna Ember said, before gathering her into her arms, holding her tight.
‘I think… this is what it feels like, to have a mother.‘ Even in her own mind, Alora’s thoughts were hesitant. If Alora was honest with herself, she was afraid to trust,
“I’ll be alright.” Alora told her, her voice hoarse.
Ember gave Alora one more squeeze before letting her go, with a motherly smile, Ember gently cupped her cheek. “Okay, for now we need to get you m
Mansion.”
“Yes.” Alpha Andrew said. “Ember and I have come up with a plan for that.”
“You have?” Darien asked, looking at his parents with surprise.
“Yes.” Ember said. “First, things first, we have invited the Mountainmovers to stay with us for the rest of the week so you and Serenity can get acquainted.”
“This means that I will be taking Alora, Darien, Kain and Galen, with me to the Northmountain’s in my SUV. While Serenity, Jaxon, Camille, and Alfred w
The twins were surprised that they were going to be riding with the Alpha. Darien and Serenity didn’t want to be separated, but they understood the necessity. Darien pulled out his keys and handed them to his mothe
When it came time to separate, Darien gave Serenity a tight hug and a deep kiss. The twins gave their mom and dad a hug before going to stand next to the Alpha. After separating from Serenity, Darien hugged his mom before going to stand with the twins and his dad. J
Ember turned and gave Alora a hard squeeze. “Don’t let them bully you. You are stronger than they ever will be.”
Alora only nodded her agreement, afraid if she opened her mouth to say anything, she would start crying. With one last squeeze, Ember let Alora go and went to Darien’s car. C
Andrew, Alora, Darian, and the twins stayed there until they had all pulled out and were driving to the Moonstar Mansion. “Come on, time to get this grou
Alora nodded and got in the front passenger seat, Darien somehow wound up in the middle of the back seat, with one of the twins on either side of him. A are we going to play this?”
“It was in your text earlier, you and I will be going with Alora as her guests. Kain and Galen, however, are going as her enforcers.” Alpha Andrew said, ex and Galen to go with them.
Darien frowned. “How did you know Kain and Galen offered to serve Alora as her Elite Enforcers?”
Alpha Andrew’s brows raised in surprise. “I did not know that. I only brought them as enforcers because their father told me being Elite Enforcers to an Alpha was their dream.”
“So, it was just a coincidence?” Darien asked, surprised.
Alpha Andrew nodded. “A happy one, I hope. Alora, did you accept their offer?”
“Yes.” Alora told him. “Xena and Selena like them.”
“That’s good.” Alpha Andrew said, genuinely happy about this turn of events. “Before we get to the Northmountain’s, there is something I have been meaning to ask you about for a while now.”
Alora looked at Alpha Andrew, her expression curious. “Yes, Alpha?”
“The necklace Damien gave you when you were pups, why did you stop wearing it after Damien went to University?” Alpha Andrew asked.
Alora reached up and touched her bare collarbone, where the pendant of the necklace used to rest. That was another thing Alora needed to pay Sarah back for and retrieve from her.
