Chapter 306 Second Chance
Lila’s POV
“She’s mine!” Alex growled, which shocked me to my core.
“You rejected her,” I seethed, glaring at Alex. “She is not yours anymore.”
“The mate bond is still there,” Alex growled. “She’s mine until I say otherwise.”

Bri couldn’t take her eyes off Ethan. When I looked at Ethan, he was no longer looking at Bri, but
glaring at Alex. I could have sworn I saw smoke coming out of his nostrils.
“Bri, come with me,” Alex proceeded to order, reaching out to grab her.
“Don’t you dare f ucking touch her!” Ethan growled, rumbling the entire ground.
Brianna looked terrified; I thought she was about to cry at any moment and my heart was hurting for
her. I couldn’t imagine what she must have been thinking right about now.
I grabbed her arm and pulled her out of the way just as Ethan shifted into his large orange wolf and
lunged at Alex who had also shifted. The two growled loudly as claws swiped at one another, drawing
blood that I couldn’t figure out which wolf it came from.
Brianna screamed for them to stop, tears finally flooding her face as all her emotions came out at once.
Ethan dug his teeth into Alex’s collarbone, making his wolf yelp in agony. Despite Alex being a gam
ma, Ethan was a lot bigger and much stronger. Ethan had spent a lot of time with Jake and helping him
train. other gam mas, so he knew a thing or two about fighting. I shouldn’t have been surprised
considering he was Enzo’s beta.
The growls and snarls terrified Brianna; tears poured down her face and her entire body trembled.
I grabbed onto her arm, trying to get her attention, but she wouldn’t look away from the fight.
The metallic scent of blood invaded my nose, but I couldn’t be sure who it belonged to. They were both
getting decent strikes in, Alex with his claws and Ethan with his canines. There was blood pooling on
the ground as they tackled one another. Neither of their wolves submitted or backed down.
They were furious.
A gam ma and a Beta. Things were getting majorly dangerous. Bri shouldn’t be seeing any of this stuff.
I turned to my other friends, and I saw that Luis had already taken Becca inside. I heard her
whimpering moments ago, and now they were gone.
Kay stood staring wide-eyed at the fight, her body trembling. She wasn’t a wolf so if they were to attack
her in the crossfire, she wouldn’t be able to protect herself. The magic she has is mainly for the forest.
She was a forest fairy after all.
I’m sure she’s never been this close to a wolf fight before.
A loud howl echoed through the night, and I turned to see that both my father and Alpha Jonathan were

now shifted into their wolf forms. My father’s wolf was huge and ran as fast as he could toward the
fighting wolves. Alpha Jonathan wasn’t far behind him; between the two of them, they shook the earth
when they
ran.
“Get her inside!” My father screamed through our shared mindlink.
I finally willed my feet to move, and I tugged Brianna’s arm, trying to pull her with me. I heard the low
growl of her wolf in her throat; she didn’t want to leave. She wanted to stay here with her mate;
whichever one she chose.
But telling from the distant look in her wet eyes as she stared at the fighting wolves, I knew the human
int her didn’t know what to do.
“Bri,” I said softly. “Come with me.”
She stood her ground, staring and lightly growling at the scene before her. It was like I wasn’t even.
“Bri?” I said again, this time with a question.
Her growls only grew louder and that was when I realized Brianna wasn’t there at all; her wolf was
there. I needed to speak to her wolf.
“Amira…” I said to her wolf, trying to keep my tone as calm as possible. “Amira, please… let her go.
Your mate will come to you when he’s ready.”
Brianna’s breathing grew shaky, but the growling had lessened. I knew I had her wolf’s attention and I
needed to tread carefully if I wanted her wolf to give her full control again.
“Your mate will come to you, Amira. But you need to protect Brianna right now. You need to release her
so she can get to safety. It’s what he’d want.”
“Mate…” Brianna whispered; except it wasn’t Brianna. It was her wolf, Amira.
I understood that and I respected it.
“Yes,” I said softly. “He’s your mate. He will come to you. Protect Brianna…” I repeated slowly. “Protect
your human, Amira.”
Brianna blinked and then her eyes found mine.
“Lila…” she whispered, her voice cracking.
I knew she was back; I hadn’t realized I was crying until I blinked, and tears were released down my
checks.
“Come with me, Bri,” I told her gently. “Let’s go inside.”
Her eyes flashed to the fight again, my father and Alpha Jonathan were in the middle of breaking it up.
It appeared like Ethan had the upper hand. He was bleeding badly, but Alex clearly had an injured leg
and could hardly walk properly in his wolf form.I looked at Kay who was still looking at the fight through
her terrified and unshed tears.
“Kay,” I said to her, trying to sound firm. She flashed me a look, her terrified look remaining. “Go inside.”

It was an order and she took it as that; it was like she was waiting on my permission. She nodded her
head and scurried into the packhouse after Becca and Luis.
I held onto Brianna’s arm tighter, keeping myself close to her.
“Amira,” I said to her wolf softly. “Give her full control so she can move. Do what you can to protect your
human.”
Bri pulled her eyes away from the fight to look at me; I saw a flash of glowing emerald in her eyes, and
I knew it was her wolf.
Then, there was a small nod and Bri blinked a few times again. She kept her eyes on me as tears fell
across her features.
“Amira wants to go inside…” she said in a broken whisper.
I nodded, giving her a small and reassuring smile as I guided her away from the fighting wolves and
into the packhouse.
It was quiet inside the packhouse; only the sounds of the food being cooked in the kitchen could be
heard. There were a bunch of guests in the front foyer, but they were all too preoccupied with the fight
outside to make a sound. Most of them were watching from the windows, some were watching on the
front patio.
I couldn’t even imagine how Brianna must be feeling right now. She looked like a ghost of herself; she
was pale and sickly looking. Her entire body trembled, and tears continued to pour from her eyes.
I wrapped my arms around her, holding her close to me, wanting to calm her down. But I knew nothing
could calm her down. My heart ached painfully in my chest.
I walked her into the grand living room, and we sat on the large sofa. It was comfortable; we both
nearly sunk into the thick fabric of the couch.
Her body continued to tremble as she sobbed uncontrollably. I wished I knew what she was thinking
right
now.
“How…. how…. how is it…. possible?” She asked between s obs.
She didn’t have to elaborate; I knew what she was asking. She wasn’t sure how it was possible to have
two possible mates. Alex was her mate, but then he rejected her. But rejection doesn’t completely
sever the mate bond; at least not yet. So, she shouldn’t be able to get another mate yet.

But now Ethan was here, claiming to be her mate. It was obvious that her wolf also recognized him as
their mate. It was all so confusing, and I had to take some time to wrap my own head around this as
well.
“From what it looks like, it seems as if the Beta is a second chance mate,” a voice said from the
doorway.
We all turned to see Luis and Becca standing in front of us. It was Luis who had spoken, and his words
took us by surprise.
Of course, I had heard of a second chance mate. But they were extremely rare.
“A second chance mate?” Kay was the one who asked, sitting on one of the love seats.
Luis nodded.

“It’s possible,” Luis stated simply. “I don’t know much about the situation, but Miss Brianna has two
wolves fighting over her. Both claiming to be her mate.”
“I thought the mate bond had to be severed before a second chance mate is granted,” Becca asked,
furrowing her brows together.
“Not always,” Luis said, glancing at her. “If the moon goddess feels it’s deserving, she can grant it
earlier than that.”
“She is the goddess,” I shrugged, glancing at Bri’s pale face. “She can do what she wants, and it does
seem like she gave you a second chance mate.”
“But why not take away the mate I already have?” She asked, her voice quivering.
“Perhaps she wants you to choose for yourself,” Luis suggested. “Or rather, wants your wolf to make
the choice.”
A thought came to me at that moment.
“My mother always told me to trust my wolf because my wolf will never steer me wrong. You have to
trust Amira. She knows what’s best for you both. She loves you and wants to protect you. She wants to
protect her mate as well; she already knows who her true mate is. Just let her tell you…”
Bri looked at me for a long while; she blinked away some of the leftover tears before swallowing hard.
Then, her eyes hardened, and she nodded as she stood to her feet. I stood with her, ready to fight
whatever battle she wanted to fight. But before we could say anything more, the door swung open,
turning all of our
attention.
“Hey, guys.”
I stood, staring at the person in the doorway with my mouth practically on the floor.
I couldn’t believe who was standing in front of us.
