Game of Destiny by Dripping Creativity novel Chapter 156

Battle of Fate Summary

Armeria “Amie” Winstone is nearing her eighteenth birthday in one of the strongest werewolf packs. While most werewolves gain their wolf between ages sixteen and seventeen, Amie still has not received hers. This makes her feel weak, insecure, and fearful of being seen as a disappointment. Despite this, she has a loving family and a close connection to the pack’s leaders, having grown up alongside the Alpha’s son, James.

During the full moon celebration on the night she turns eighteen, Amie discovers her fated mate by scent—James, the future Alpha and her childhood friend. However, instead of joy, the moment turns devastating when James publicly rejects her. He claims that she cannot be his Luna because she does not have her wolf, and he believes the pack needs a strong leader’s mate. His rejection shatters Amie emotionally and brings silent shock across the pack.

The aftermath creates tension between the families. Amie’s parents are heartbroken and furious, willing to challenge the Alpha to defend their daughter. Amie realizes her presence will cause division, broken alliances, and pain for the pack. Feeling like a burden and unwilling to be the reason her family suffers, she quietly decides to leave. Before dawn, she packs her belongings, writes a loving goodbye letter to her parents and brother, and leaves her home and pack behind, stepping into an uncertain future alone.

“Finn!” Amie demanded.

“Whu?” I asked as I had been asleep only seconds earlier and hadn’t managed to wake my brain entirely.

“I need you to wake up,” she told me. My brain worked on muscle memory and since it wasn’t a muscle, it didn’t do a good job.

“You’re pregnant again?” I asked. I could hear her groaning and it wasn’t a happy one. It was definitely an irritated one. It made me speed up the waking up process.

“I’m still pregnant with the first one, at least a little longer,” she pointed out. It was true, I realised. It made my question a moment earlier look a little stupid.

“Are you okay?” I asked, almost entirely awake. I put my hand on her large belly out of habit and as I did, I felt it harden and Amie whimpered. I was wide awake. “Amie?” The panic was clear in my voice.

“It’s okay Finn. I think our pup is coming,” she told me.

“Now?” I asked.

“Yes now. Why are you surprised? I am already a week past the due date!”

“Right. I knew this was coming. We have prepared for this,” I told her and tried to sound like I was in control over the situation. In my mind, I was trying to think of what we had planned to do. And I was drawing a blank. My brain had zero information in it, it was a miracle it still remembered how to keep me breathing.

“Wake my parents, I will mindlink Medow and Matilda,” she told me.

“Will do!” I headed back to Amie, I didn’t want her to be alone. I mindlinked our healer and Hugo said he would be right over with his colleague. I trusted Ron would mindlink Elder. He, Becky and Mino had come along with Amie’s parents. As our second guest room now was a nursery, Elder and his family stayed in the pack house. Amie was sitting on the edge of the bed, wearing one of my t–shirts. “How are you holding up?” I asked as I walked up to her.

I’m okay. Happy to finally get this over with,” she told me and leaned her head against me. I massaged her scalp with my fingers and she sighed happily.

Jake, Amie is in labour. I’m handing the pack off to you and Shelly for a couple of days,‘ I mindlinked Jake.

‘Congratulations! We will stop by in a while,” he told me. There was knock on the door and Amies mother and my aunt walked in. My aunt had been put on mate keeping duty by Amie. She was there to make sure I didn’t kill a healer or something like that. I huffed. I was an Alpha. I had my dignity and my self–constraint was top level.
