Claudia

Everything comes rushing back to me as I stare at this son of a b***h. He has ruined my life and my family. He has harmed my children in so many ways and I want nothing more than for him to die. But then... he laughs at me and shakes his head. He snaps, "You don't intimidate me, mutt!"

Evan takes a step from behind me, and I can't help but smirk, everyone is intimidated by my giant hulk of a man. But Aamon shakes his head, "What are you going to do? Hit me? You have questions for me, and I guarantee I won't answer them just because you are trying to intimidate me."

Mateo asks, "Then what will make you answer?"

He lifts his head up and gives a smirk, "They already know what I want."

Osborn steps forward, "You're not getting the child."

He laughs, "Then I won't fix her memory."

Osborn lets out a growl that feels like it shakes the whole room and Aamon looks at him and shakes his head, "I will fix her memory if I am guaranteed to leave with my child and no one attacks us."

Osborn rushes towards him yelling, "I'll kill you!"

Aamon smirks at him, "No one will kill me because I'm the only one that can get your precious Alita back to normal."

I press my lips together, he's right. He's the only one who can do it.

I don't know what we're going to do. He can't have the baby, but... how else are we going to get Alita to remember who she is?

Alita

Aurora

I lie on the bed of the room that used to be mine. The room is decorated in blue, purple, and black swirls, there's pictures of the people that claim they're my family with me, and there's pictures of people I don't remember. I huff, if this was truly my life then why don't I remember it? It's driving me crazy.

My wolf stirs inside me. She wants answers and she's begging to be released.

I breathe out and get out of bed she is urging me to move and to go somewhere and who am I to ignore my wolf.

I follow her guidance and as I walk around the home I'm surprised to see that there is no one waiting for me. Maybe it's for the best, it helps me to explore and try to remember this part of who I am or well... who I was.

I continue to walk and even go outside until I find a building that my wolf is screaming at me to go to. I walk inside and listen out for voices and then I hear a laugh that makes my heart stop. Aamon.

I walk into the room and when they hear the door open everyone looks at me. Mateo asks, "Alita, what are you doing?"

Aamon purrs my name, "Aurora, come here, baby. You look beautiful."

I gulp as I walk towards him and I say to the others, "Release him."

Osborn scoffs, "What makes you think we would do that?"

Evan talks firmly, but he has a softness to his voice that Osborn doesn't have, "Alita, we can't do that."

I turn towards them and say, "You claim to care about me. This man is my mate and the father of my child!"

My words echo, and everyone stares at me like they're afraid to argue with me. I breathe out and say, "If any of you truly care about me and my wellbeing then you will release Aamon." Mateo takes a step toward me and says, "Alita, let's talk."

I shake my head and I sit down beside Aamon and he grins at me. I look at Mateo and say, "No, this is what I want. I know that you think you're my mate, but you're not! I am sitting beside my mate. I love him and he loves me and we have a child growing in my womb. You can't convince me to leave my life with him for you! You're just a stranger with some odd obsession with me."

I can see the pain that I am causing Mateo, but I don't care. Everything I say is true.

But that's a lie, I do care. My wolf is howling in my mind, angry that I have caused him to feel any sort of pain. Mateo breathes out and says, "I'm not giving up on you."

I scoff and shake my head, "You're hopeless and insane. You should be the one in the straitjacket, not my Aamon."

Mateo closes his eyes and grinds his teeth and I notice that everyone else is surprisingly quiet as they let us hash this thing out.

When Mateo opens his eyes, I notice they have darkened a little showing that his wolf is present. He says, "Things aren't the way they seem, Alita. Trust in me. I care about you more than Aamon ever could. He is using you because you're part elf! Not because he cares about you! If he truly cared about you then he would fight for you as a person, but all he's been fighting for is your unborn child!"

"And you care about me?" I scoff, "You don't even know me!"

He grabs his hair and tugs on it as he lets out an annoyed yell and Aamon chuckles behind me and remarks, "Someone seems to have a short temper."

If looks could kill then Aamon would be dead from the glare Mateo shot at him. Mateo breathes out and says, "Trust in me, Alita."

"Why would I trust a stranger?!" I yell out in frustration.

And suddenly, in an inhuman speed, he is kneeled down in front of me. Mateo grabs my face and kisses me. I yelp into his kiss and try to pull away, but he holds me there. And it's like my mind gets unlocked...

I don't know how else to describe it. But I feel the tingles and the full effects of the mate bond through this kiss.

Tears come down my face and he pulls away and puts his forehead against mine as we both breathe deeply. He looks into my eyes and asks, "Do you believe I'm your mate now?"
