Alpha’s Second Chance Mate (Crystal and Theo) novel Chapter 83

Chapter 83 

Andrea 

The light was blinding as I cracked open my eyes. I couldn’t recognize where I was. Where was this? 

“Aurora?” 

That voice. It belonged to my one true love. The only one I would love in my entire lif 

My heart. 

My mate. 

“Dmitri… 

It was solely his voice that made me push further to reality. There was a slight pain in my back, but I did care as I blinked and forced my heavy eyelids open. 

The ceiling looked unfamiliar to me. My throat felt dry and itchy and my mouth even more so my to sand paper and aches resounded throughout the entirety of my b*dy. 

Still I turned my n*eck, even if I couldn’t move the rest of my b*dy towards the direction I heard his voice from. Then, in his full glory I saw him. 

His flopped against his head and his hands were wrapped around my own –That’s why I couldn’t move my arm, I thought at the back of my mind. His gaze was bleary yet filled with disbelief, as if he couldn’t believe I was here. 

I blinked. My mind felt like a maze and a foggy one at that. I couldn’t understand how I’d gotten. here or why he looked so injured. 

“My Love, are you alright?” He asked. my brows furrowed further at the sound of his voice, so shaky and uncoordinated. Dmitri was never like that. He held things in but there were only a few times that I saw him in this state. 

What happened? Why couldn’t I move and why was he- 

Oh. 

“Oh‘ if I wasn’t lying on the bed I wouldn’t have fallen from the sheer force of the memories hitting me. It should have been easier considering that no stranger to regaining memories, but it hit me like a sucker punch all the same. 

I remembered everything. The battle. The rogue King. All the attacks and dodging. Dimitri standing triumphant. We won. 

And then… Ramona. 

I swallowed thickly. It wasn’t my intention to kill her, but she left me no choice. Not anymore. She had already gone far off the deep end and even if she was captured, I doubted she would be reformed. 

But that all stood secondary to the fact that I almost died.

I remembered it exactly. How my b*dy grew weak and you felt my life sl*pping out of my fingers. Dmitri called out my name. 

And then nothing. 

I tried to duo up but was only pushed back down. 

“Don’t you dare try to get up.” He growled, sending my lungs on a cardiac dance.. 

He seemed to calm down after, his b*dy relaxing -But I soon noticed him wincing and trying to hide it as he spoke once again 

“You were stabbed in Your back. If you move it may aggravate the injury.” This time his time was much gentler. It didn’t matter to me though. Once I remembered everything and had come to terms with it, all I had were questions. 

“Wha- what a” I coughed slightly and my throat still remained as scratchy as sandpaper. 

Suddenly there was movement at the corner of my eyes before a cold glass in water was brought to my vision along with a glass straw. 

“Drink.” He said. I wasted no time in doing so, savouring the taste of the pure cool and sweet water that nourished my throat. 

As he took it away, my voice, mouth and the rest of my b*dy felt much better. 

“What happened to the others? Duncan and the rest?” I croaked out, looking at him to spy his 

reaction. 

He gave a little smile and that was the assurance I needed. 

“They’re okay,” he said, shaking his head “I told Damien to deal with returning and the rest of the rogues. no doubt Michelle must be waiting for him.” 

It was a piss poor attempt at a joke, but I laughed nonetheless. 

“She isn’t the type to stay in one place for several days.” I said, mustering a small smile of “No doubt she’ll hold this over him to feel guilty for.” 

U OWN my 

It was supposed to be lighthearted, yet suddenly it was like all the air got sucked out of the room. I looked at Dmitri and I could see where his mind was going immediately. 

“Dmitri-” 

*You almost died” he cut me off/looking devastated for all the would to see. I felt my heart pang and ache at the sight. 

I shook my head fervently because it wasn’t like that. Surely he had to know. 

“I’m alive and safe and here.” I said to assure him. 

“Even if I don’t know where exactly it is. I noted, spying the unfamiliar surroundings. None of that mattered now. I needed to comfort my mate.

“It was an unexpected attack. None of us could have seen it coming.” I said, biting my l*p.

Rowena it seemed was a snake till the end. Stabbing me in the back was a low blow and according to what Dmitri told me one a long time ago, a sign of cowardice. I shouldn’t have been surprised given who she followed till the end.. 

But there was no longer any need to think about all of that. The Rogue King was gone and so was she. All the rogues were captured and now. 

“Now, we could be free. The thought put a smile on my face. 

As I looked at Dmitri, we still saw the guilt plaguing him. I reached out and held his hand tightly. 

“We can’t focus on the past. But look at the present Dmitri.” I smiled and I hoped that my joy and. relief was shared through the mate bond. 

As he stared at her it was like the cloudiness of sadness in his eyes soon cleared. He blinked several times before nodding. 

“You’re right” he said 

“I’m always right Alpha King.” I teased lightly, watching his face crack up into a small smile. 

There it was. The man I was looking for 

Shortly after he explained everything that had gone on and how we got here. Horror and fear filled. me as he told me he ran for miles to reach this place. The last I saw of him he was still injured. And yel… 

I knew he could see the complaint laying on my l*ps as he spoke. 

“If I hadn’t, you would have died and I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.” 

His words were heartfelt and monotonous, but sincere. I swallowed thickly at the thought of leaving him. 

Surprise filled me as he told me whose pack it was and I smiled to myself as he recounted everything that went in as he woke up shortly before I did 

Looking him over and seeing the bandages, I knew he needed to rest. I just needed to ask one more question. 

“How long are we staying here?” I asked. Between his multiple injuries and the stab wound I received along with bruises, I had a feeling it would take a while. 

He hummed, a contemplative look on his face before he spoke. 

“Well Be fully recovered in a week or so.” He finally replied. 

I held back the urge to groan. A week? I wanted to go home quickly. 

Still he held my hand and squeezed it lightly, making me draw all my focus to him

“Let’s count this as a little vacation. Or a mini honeymoon of sorts.” He winked, the playful side I hadn’t seen since the ambush had returned. 

I bursted I to small chuckles, ignoring the loud and sharp pains in my back as I smiled at him. 

“I just made friends with her. I don’t think she’ll let us crash in her and her mate’s pack for that long. I quipped, saiding an eyebrow. 

Still playful look in his eyes danced. 

“Oh. I think we’d come to some kind of agreement. We’re friends after all.” 

It took us five days to fully recover. To my surprise the stab wound didn’t bring any scars, although Luna didn’t expect it. Dmitri on the other hand, wasn’t fully recovered, but his b*dy had stopped aching enough to move. 

Tommy’s surprise and gratefulness, Luna had given us transportation back to Garrett’s pack and now we add to wish them goodbye. 

The big burly Alpha embraced me before we left, giving me a k*ss on the forehead. Whilst she hugged me tightly- Dmitri glared and complained that she was going to undo the healing but I only laughed. 

It took hours upon hours to finally reach our destination, spanning AA day and a half considering the long distance between us, but even though the pack weren’t the ones I wanted to see, I was relieved all the same. 

I stepped out into the pack house only to meet Michelle’s tight embrace. 

“Damien told me everything. You’re alright aren’t you? Tell me you’re alright.” She sniffed. uncontrollably, looking at me with roving eyes. 

Tears burned. My eyes as well as seeing her are completely fine. Uncaring of everyone else around. us, I shut my eyes tightly and hugged her. 

As we separated smiling, I turned to see Duncan doing the same to dmitri. We made eye contact and laughed in a low tone. 

It was relieving. We were all safe and sound. 

“I’m glad you two have arrived Alpha Dmitri and Luna Andrea.” 

The happiness dimmed as Garrett came into view. He looked nastier than normal which considering his average face was not a good sign. 

“I’m sure you fared well. Considering how you left my pack in your care.” He shrugged, 

“Yes.” Dmitri answered and I could tell he was gritting his teeth and trying to not punch him in the 

face. 

It was official. Alpha Garrett was petty.

-Would you all be going soon? I would like to handle my pack affairs now.” He asked nonchalantly. 

His words made me see red Didn’t he understand the impact of what we’d done? Wasn’t he privy to the destruction they had caused? Yet he had the audacity to act like he was entitled. 

I heard Michelle’s low growling desire me. She looked like she was ready to pounce in the man and give him hell. More than that, she looked like she had been waiting for this moment for ages. 

‘What happened between her and Alpha Garrett‘ I couldn’t help but wonder, looking at her 

reaction. 

Suddenly a voice spoke up, one I wasn’t prepared to hear.
