The Alpha's Runaway Mate

Chapter sixty three

Vince’s POV

Am I imagining things that can’t be? Pete is sitting in front of me.

Last time I saw him, he was being dragged away after they set me to get to him.

This has to be an illusion. Pull yourself together, says Ralph. Ralph?

It can’t be. I haven’t heard from him in almost eighteen years.

How is this even possible? Open your ears, you stupid human. Yes, it’s me. Who else would be dumb enough to talk to you?

Yep, it’s Ralph, but how? Well, you’re going to have to ask the person in front of you.

Or do I have to explain everything to you? Maybe we should trade places, and I do the talking.

Ralph? Stop with the Ralph talk and try talking to them, Ralph grins. Raising my head, I look at the man I haven’t seen in over eighteen years, if I kept count right. Some of those days are very blurry.

P..Pete I stutter. It’s weird even hearing the sound of my own voice. He reaches over and grabs a hold of my hand.

It’s really him. I told you. Now would you ask what happened, or do I need to do it?

I got this, Ralph. Go take a rest or something. That’s the problem. I’ve been resting for over eighteen years, and it’s a little cramped here, he smirks.

Alright, alright, I get it. You want out, you annoying mutt. Now you’re talking my language, he chuckles.

Pete just watches me as my eyes flicker from blue to black. He finally squeezes my hand to pull me outta my thoughts.

Pete, how is this even possible? How did I get here? Well, that’s a long story, and we got plenty of time for that.

But for now, let the doctors check you over to make sure everything’s okay.

Shaking my head, the doctors move forward, checking all my vitals.

Mr. Rowland? Hey, stupid, he’s talking to you! Listen, you lousy mutt. If you don’t go lay down, I’m never gonna let you out EVER!! Fine, he pouts, then he blocks me.

The doctors are looking at me, amused. Sorry, it’s been a while since I’ve had to deal with him.

Usually, we get along great. But he’s been trapped for so long, he’s sort of rebellious.

The doctor chuckles. How about you tell me how you’re feeling, and then maybe we can work on helping you with your wolf?

Sure. Ralphs is just standing there with his tongue hanging out but not daring to say anything.

Thought you were blocking me. Ralph doesn’t reply. That’s fine. You don’t need to answer eighteen years of silence, so I’m used to it.

Ralph shakes his head and turns around, showing me his a**. Aww, now I’m really feeling the love. Vince smirks.

“

I feel good,” Vince finally replies. Muscles are sore, but besides that, I’m good.

You haven’t walked in a while, so I will get a nurse to come help you.

For the time being, there’s a wheelchair for you to use. No need for the nurse, Vince. I’ve got you. You sure?

Of course, he’s my brother, and I can handle it.

OK, then I’ll have a nurse come in and take the IV’s out. he can’t leave or be discharged until he eats.

Nothing big. I know his stomach won’t hold a lot, so take it slow. You know how this works, Pete.

That’s fine. I’m starving anyway. I feel like I haven’t eaten in years, he says with a grin.

Everyone stops and looks at him like he’s lost his mind.

Well, good to know you haven’t lost your sense of humor. Pete grins.

Pete, it’s good to know you still don’t have a sense of humor. As Vince winks at him.

Willam, on second thought, can we sedate him again? Everyone starts laughing.

I missed you too, brother. Pete just shakes his head. I missed you too.

The nurse came in with lunch and took out his IV’s then left the room, leaving only the two brothers. Okay, Pete, start explaining how did I get here?

Pete’s POV

Well, it’s a long story, so start eating, and I’ll try to explain. I am going to try explaining it with a short, fast version.

Cassius used my family against me, had me marry someone else, so that she could only get pregnant with her actual mate.

Somehow he got a hold of her mate and used him against her. The only time I saw my family or she saw her mate was when we were allowed to mate.

She got pregnant three times.

I raised her kids while mine were held hostage. I became bitter, abusing them. I even tried to kill her daughter.

She stopped me. I made her daughter live in a shed, while abusing all of them, not so much the boys though. I more or less threatened to kill them if they told anyone about their sister. Or I would just kill her.

Her brothers when she turned eighteen ran away with her.

When she escaped, her mother and I both went to jail. When she turned twenty-one, she met her mate.

Her mother and I were sent to this pack of her mate.

Then Cassius attacked the Red Moon Pack.

My fake wife’s mate was arrested at the Red Moon Pack and then brought to the Blue Moon Pack, here with us.

Where Alpha Thomas figured out we all were under an Alpha command.

The daughter I abused all these years showed mercy on us and released us all.

With the understanding we had to get our life together and fix the past.

Then Izzy’s mate, with the help of the Red Moon Pack, freed my mate and children.

Then my fake wife’s mate knew where you were in the dungeon. We then used a witch to help you escape.

We brought you here and you know the rest. Pew… that was just a fast version of what happened, Pete blurted out.

Vince’s mouth fell wide open.

He was at a loss for words. Close your mouth, Vince, you might catch a fly!

How? How? How did… you know what… never mind, forget I asked. Shaking his head.

I’m just glad it all worked out.

Yes, it did. We have some amazing kids.

You’ll get to meet them all soon enough.
