Axel held out his hand, in it was a simple piece
of stationary folded in half, Lise's stationary. Taking it from
him, I stared at it for a moment trying to get the knots to stop
forming in the pit of my stomach. Holding my breath I unfolded the
letter. Written neatly inside were two lines.

 

Tristan,

 

If you truly love me, you'll let me
go...Lise.

 

"If we hurry you might still be able to catch
her." Axel spoke up coming to stand next to me, he placed his hand
on my shoulder. A look of pity in his eyes confirmed what Anya said
is true. She left for good. "Nicole said Lise left with her father
and brothers. They're on the way to the airport heading back home
to Spain."

 

I loved her more than anything in this universe
which is why I'll be damned if I let her go. "Let's go." I uttered
already heading for the front door. Axel drove to the airport like
a maniac making it there in record time. I tried repeatedly calling
Lise's cell, but it seems like she turned it off. Neither her
brothers nor her father would answer my calls or texts.

 

Racing through security Axel and I ran the
entire way to the terminal for private aircrafts. It's where people
with their own airplanes have to board the plane and land. Reaching
the gate, I could tell we were too late. As I watched from the
window as the Manznares jet pulled down the runway and took off my
heart broke into a million pieces.

 

I'll get her back if it's the last thing I do.
Maybe I'll give her some time to calm down and figure things out.
Best believe I'm catching the next flight out to Spain. First
things first, I need to go home and deal with Danny. He can
consider himself lucky if he survives tonight. He's the cause of
all of this. Then I need to get my Alpha affairs in order because
it looks like I'll be out of town for few days. Hopefully, that'll
be all it'll take for her to forgive me.

 

After purchasing a ticket to Spain, I returned
home. The next flight the airport could offer me wouldn't be
leaving for another four hours. Slamming the door to my study, I
got within inches of his face. "What the hell are you doing here in
Port Clyde Danny?" I spat out venomously.

 

"Tsk, tsk, tsk Alpha. Now is that anyway to
speak to your cousin? Your own flesh and blood?" Danny asked in a
cocky tone. This asshole doesn't know whom he's messing with. The
way I'm feeling right now I'll skin him alive and bury him in my
garden, I'm pretty sure he won't be missed.

 

"You're no family of mine." I retorted, with a
humorless laugh. "You stopped being my cousin the day your dad
decided to challenge mine for his Alpha title. Too bad he lost." I
rubbed in, pissed off that he'd dare show his face here after all
these years.

 

We were only kids when his dad, my Uncle got
power hungry and decided to challenge my dad for his Alpha
position. Naturally my Father won, instead of killing his own
brother...he allowed that bastard to live. Not able to face my
father, my uncle left the pack taking his family with him to
England where he challenged another Alpha over there. This time he
won and was able to obtain the status he so desperately sought.

 

Now Danny is Alpha of the pack. My question is
what business does he have here in Port Clyde? "Well I came to pay
you a visit, but was fortunate to run into that sweet sweet mate of
yours...and boy let me tell you…she is one fine piece of..."

 

I didn't even allow him to finish his sentence
as I lunged at him knocking him from the chair when my fist
connected with his face. "You son of a bitch!" My chest heaved up
and down in anger. He knew Lise was my mate all along which means
he's been keeping tabs on me. He probably planned this whole
thing.

 

After getting in a few good punches I was pulled
off the piece of crap by Luke, Axel, and Max. Danny managed to
stand up steadying himself on my desk. His lip and nose was bloody
along with the trace of a black eye beginning to show. "If you must
know so badly then I'll tell you...I'll leave to go back home
tomorrow but believe me when I say I plan on coming back for the
challenge. I'll even be nice and give you a week to prepare for the
fight of your life. I want your pack Tristan and I wouldn't mind
comforting your grieving mate."

 

I went to lunge at him again but Luke's
thought invaded my mind
. 'Don't do it,
he's not worth it. Focus on getting Lise back first.'
I stopped myself before saying through clenched teeth, "Get
him out of my sight." Seems the apple doesn't fall far from the
tree. All this because he wants to be Alpha of my pack? Over my
dead body if he thinks I'm going to fly all the way to Spain to
fight like hell for Lise to come back home only to lose the
challenge to him. I plan on getting my Luna back, marrying her and
experiencing the satisfaction of killing him for the trouble he's
caused.

Chapter 21: Love Conquers All

 

Lise's POV

 

Leaning my head back against the chair cushion,
I mindlessly gazed out the window at the dark night sky. As we
pulled off the runway, there was only one thing on my
mind...Tristan. My heart ached at the distance I was putting
between us, but it's not done without reason. That whole incident
back at the restaurant made me realize quite a few things, you
could call it a reality check.

 

I truly don't know the first thing about being a
supportive Luna. Seems like I go against Tristan more than I was
aware of. It opened my eyes to some issues I needed to work out
within myself. Sure, at first I was angry at Tristan for
embarrassing me in front of everyone, but the more time I spent
thinking about it the more I realized his reaction was justified. I
would've probably shifted and killed the girl if the roles were
reversed, I mean I almost clawed Darla's eyes out when she was
simply talking to Tristan.

 

I just needed some space, time away to resolve
my inner faults before allowing myself to cause more trouble for
Tristan. He already has enough on his plate being Alpha without me
adding to his stress. As his mate, I'm supposed to be around to
support him, instead I just aggravate him, I'm more grief than I'm
worth.

 

Deep down inside I knew Tristan had a good
reason for warning me to stay away from Danny. I just wished I had
listened or that he trusted me enough to confide in me. We lack
communication sometimes, we'll definitely need to work on that.
Tristan feels the less I know the better, he doesn't want me to
worry too much. What he doesn't realize is not knowing causes me
even more stress, because I'm forced to come up with my own
theories.

 

My mind began filling with all the memories of
the times I've gotten angry at him for little things. All Tristan
has ever done was worry about my safety, I couldn't possibly ask
for a better mate. He's fought battles just to keep me by his side,
too bad I can't say I've done the same for him. I'm a spoiled
rotten princess and an unworthy mate.

 

I wondered if he was thinking about me? "How are
you holding up?" Rico asked coming to sit down in the seat next to
me once we were up in the air safely. Turning my head, I faced my
brother with a meek smile. "I'll be ok." I answered, my voice
sounding much stronger than I felt. I was unsure if I was trying to
convince him or myself with that response.

 

"You should at least tell him why you're
leaving." Alonso spoke up from the seat across from me, my Dad
seated to the left of him. I just simply nodded my head and drifted
back into thought. I love my Dad and brothers for not pushing the
issue any further, they allow me to make my own mistakes and learn
from them. At my request they've been ignoring Tristan's calls, I
know it's hard for my brother's since they're all so close.

After storming out the restaurant, I headed
straight to my car. When I returned home from Rustica with Anya and
Nicole, I found that my Dad and brother's were just on their way
out the door to meet us there. They stayed behind to take make a
few calls in order to handle some pack issues back at home.

 

Luckily, they were still there. Upon seeing my
red puffy eyes my brothers were out for blood, until I explained
the situation was completely my fault. Sometimes I'm just too
trusting and too naive to believe that the world does consist of
bad people. You'd think I would've at least learned my lesson by
now...guess not. "Why don't you go lay down, try and get some rest
mi princesa. You've had a rough night." My Father spoke up giving
me a wink.

 

It was his way of allowing me to be alone. I was
so grateful for his understanding nature. Nodding my head, I
unbuckled my seatbelt and made my way to the bedroom. Shutting the
door behind me, I curled up under the covers and cried as the
feeling of guilt consuming me whole ate away at me. I hope Tristan
can find it in his heart to forgive me, was my last thought before
drifting asleep.

 

I was running through the woods in human form as
fast as my legs could possibly carry me. Tristan was in some sort
of danger, I could just sense it as the eerie chills crept up my
spine. As I came to the clearing behind the pack house my eyes
widened in shock at the sight before me. A gray wolf significantly
smaller than Tristan's black one, had him pinned to the ground
ready to rip Tristan's throat out. "No!" I screamed at the top of
my lungs, the last thing I saw was Tristan's sad gray eyes...the
eyes I loved losing myself in…come to a close.

 

"Lise, wake up. Annalise!" Lonso's voice
demanded, as I sprang up from the bed My eyes opened realizing it
was only a nightmare. Lonso's arms wrapped around me as he
reassured me, "Shh, everything's going to be ok sis." It was then I
noticed I was shaking uncontrollably and sobbing. What the hell was
I thinking when I decided to leave? I'll never forgive myself if
something happens to Tristan.

 

The plane pulled to a stop causing me to take a
break in my minor breakdown. Pulling away I took a few deep breaths
trying to calm myself the best I could. "We're here." Lonso spoke
up answering my thought before I could speak it. Getting settled in
was the last thing on my mind. I needed to go for a run, clear my
head of all the nonsense. The sooner I get my mind right, the
faster I can go home to Tristan.

 

A knock on my bedroom door diverted my attention
away from staring longingly out the window. "Want to come for a
run?" Lonso smiled as if he just read my mind. "I'm running patrols
with Juan, hope u don't mind." I smiled gratefully at my brother.
He's always so considerate of me...always there to help get me
through tough times. "I don't mind, be down in two minutes?" I
responded after running up to my brother and giving him a hug. Then
quickly dashing into the bathroom to change, I called over my
shoulder. "Thanks Lonso."

I ran quietly beside my brother and his best
friend while they patrolled the area for what seemed like hours.
Never once complaining, instead I admired the scenery thankful for
the distraction. Once they were finished their duty, we raced each
other back to the house. Lonso was in the lead and I was a close
second; that is until Juan cheated by shoving me playfully to the
side and knocking me off balance, that stinking cheater.

 

Fully planning on getting even, I quickly
straightened myself out and pushed myself forward through the home
stretch of our backyard, tackling Juan to the ground we rolled in
the dirt until coming to a stop at the back deck steps. It just so
happened Juan landed on top of me. Giving me a playful toothy grin
with his I beat you again face, I didn't realize him standing there
on the deck with Rico until I heard the all too familiar growl
rumble deep from within his chest.

 

Jerking my head to the side, I looked upside
down towards the deck. What I saw there both excited and worried
me. Happy he was here, but the look on his face scared me. Tristan
was being restrained by Rico's arm as his eyes were so dark they
seemed almost black in color. I quickly flipped Juan off me so I
could rush to his side, feeling guilty for even allowing myself
that little bit of fun. See, I keep on messing up. I can't seem to
get anything right.

 

Tristan broke away from Rico and immediately
went into the house. I trudged along behind him in wolf form until
we reached my room where he waited for me to enter before shutting
and locking the door behind me. I ran into my bathroom where I
shifted back and dressed quickly. Coming out of my bathroom, I
noticed Tristan's stiff stance as he stood in front of my
window.

 

Not giving me a chance to think of something to
say, Tristan began to speak, "Is this what you really want?"
Tristan's voice came out not sounding like his own. It seemed full
of pain and anguish. Not sure what he was referring to I stood
quiet. "I love you more than life itself, but if you really want me
to let you go...just say the word and I'll go."

 

I shook my head violently, a lump forming in the
back of my throat making it difficult to respond. His back was
facing me so naturally he couldn't see my denial. He thought I
wanted to break up, can mates even do that? Taking my silence as
confirmation to his question, Tristan turned away without facing me
and headed towards the door. "I'm sorry for hurting you Lise both
physically and emotionally. I hope one day you can find it in your
heart to forgive me because I'll never forgive myself for it." His
hand was on the doorknob ready to open the door and leave.

 

The tears ran down my face as my breathing
became labored. He was taking the blame yet again, when it was my
fault? Not able to speak I ran to grab a hold of Tristan, wrapping
my arms around his waist I pressed my face into his back. I didn't
want him to leave not now, not ever. "I'm so sorry for not
listening to you, you've done nothing wrong for me to forgive. It's
me that needs forgiving." I managed to sob out. "I've been nothing
but trouble to you since day one. I wasn't leaving you, I was going
away to fix myself. I'm a horrible Luna and an even worse
mate."
