The Alpha & Beta’s Regret – Chapter 79
Rafe POV
Rafe sighed and put his hand on Jack’s shoulder as he heard Titan state ‘I don’t want his baby.’ That he believed it was Maria who’d said it. Now they both knew that there was nothing wrong with Jack or Flare.
Jack looked right at him, and sighed, mind-linked right to him, ‘I sent Titan because I thought Maria was hiding being on birth control, and that’s why there was never a pup. This also explains why she would never let our pack doctor check her over.” Saw him stare across the room. It was now confirmed that what he’d suspected all along, was true. It was exactly why Maria would never let their doctor so much as run blood tests on her. Wolfen birth control would be detected. And her constant nagging about not getting pregnant would no longer work. Likely also to start one hell of a fight about it, Rafe thought.

unless we actually reject each other. And if Orien is doing this to protect not just the pack, but also keep myself and Luci out of Victor’s hands. How can I reject my Mate? He does it because he loves me, is actually showing loyalty to my daughter in some weird, dumbass of a way.”

Find that way to beat us and get around Alari. The boys even.” He scrubbed a hand over his own face now at both their horrified expressions. “It’s unavoidable,” he sighed “The twins will shift and attack if Alari does. They are pure Siren Hybrids. Follow Alari without question. She’s their mother and their Alpha.”
