All Chapters of Alpha (Reluctant Mates Book 1): Chapter 51 - Chapter 55

Days had passed with Grace sat beside Sawyer’s unconscious body. In the chaotic aftermath of the battle, they’d rushed him to the clinic, and he’d remained there since under her watchful eye. She hadn’t moved, had barely eaten the food they had brought for her. Finally, Dahlia insisted that she have a wash and change her clothes. Grace had attempted to protest but her friend had promised to mind link her of any change and made several rude comments concerning her smell, so reluctantly, she had rushed to her room. A recognisable clink of ice in a glass came from behind her as she finished buttoning up her shirt and she turned to find Forrest in the open doorway, two short glasses in his hands.“You need a drink,” he said softly.

There was something about the way she stroked it and smiled that suggested she liked it. And he wanted to look his best for her today.His wedding day.He shook his head; it almost didn’t feel real. Everything had happened so quickly after Grace had been introduced to the pack.

Even their allies had been surprisingly quiet when informed that not only was the Regna Mare Alpha female, but she was marrying the Fortis Alpha.
