The conversation eventually moves away from Rio and his neck, but keeps staring down awkwardly.

"Can we talk in private?” Leah asks Rio in a low voice and grabs his hand to pull him before he even responds.

I keep my eyes on them until they disappear down the hallway to the bedrooms.

About half an hour later, Rio and Leah return. Leah is holding Rio's hand really tightly and they walk until they get to me and Jess. Leah gives me a long look and a slow knowing smile, as if she knows something I don't. She's someone else to add to the list of people who know something I don't, I guess.

"Jess, it's really late. Shall we go?"

"Oh? but," Jess looks at me, "Can't I stay over tonight?"

I'm totally not in the mood to keep entertaining Jess and her inscessant need to be all over me every second one way or another.

"Sorry, my love, but I have to wake up really early tomorrow and deal with some restaurant shit," I lie with a tired sigh and a grimace to give my lie more realism. Jess frowns, b

    I literally have nothing to do and no one to hang out with. I guess I could call someone from my class but I don't think we're there yet. Today I just wanted to... be myself for a little while, I guess. Without having to worry about acting a certain way. I sigh and decide to have a day with myself. I stop at a coffee shop and sit at a table with my breakfast, trying not to agonize over the fact that now someone else knows about my secret: Leah.My plan to make her my girlfriend is completely screwed up now, but at least she's not a horrible person who's going to expose my lies. Leah knew immediately that she didn't give me those hickeys and she also knew that the only person who could have given them to me was Zee. So, she took me to my room and demanded that I tell her everything.I tried to lie, but she wouldn't let me and so I ended up telling her everything. Fortunately, she didn't take it the wrong way or yelled at me or got mad at me, she just told me that she was genuinely s

    { Alejandro }I'm about to finish the routine I pulled out of my ass because Zee never sent me a new one, when he walks into the gym throwing the door so hard he almost breaks it. He's walking over to me with heavy, clearly annoyed steps. And he looks... destroyed. I stop and put the weights on the floor."What the hell happened?" I ask him. Zee's white uniform shirt is all brown and literally torn all over as if a wild animal attacked him. He's all covered in mud, his face, his hair and the rest of his body."Your mother is the biggest asshole," he growls and I can only shrug because I already knew that, "And your ex is a fucking bitch."Oh, no."What happened? Tell me.""I have to take a shower first, finish up here while I'm at it. I just wanted to make sure he didn't come here to bother you," he blurts out and walks away before I can tell him I'm about done. I grab the weights off the floor to finish my set as fast as I can. Once I do, I walk over to the showers as well. Zee is

  • A Healer For The Alpha   Time’s Running Out

    With nothing else to do but accept this situation, I take two pills instead of three and I lie down to sleep, wishing that Gregory comes back before those five days. However, three days later, he’s still living it up in LA while my pills disappeared and now I only have one left for tonight. I need to go buy the accesible-to-all ones in the pharmacy once my classes are over. Today I can feel that my wolf is not quite sedated anymore, but he’s just a quiet presence in my mind and, fortunately, everything continues just as normal. I thought today would be another good fun day of staying in the classroom all day, but it's not. We have to go on a circuit again. Last time I did a circuit, I managed to save myself because there was a puzzle as the last obstacle, but this time I'm not so lucky. The whole circuit is about running, jumping and crawling and all while carrying a very heavy bag of sand on our shoulders. To be honest, I can feel myself doing things a little better this time. T

    Alana came back to Tallahide brighter than ever, her skin is completely tanned and shiny and her long brown hair has blonde highlights now, she also doesn’t look as thin as she did before, which is amazing because when Christian was alive, she looked like a skeleton. She brought back a million mementos of every place she visited and I spend about three hours with her and her best friend Mimi as they tell me every little thing they did and we have dinner together. Listening to my aunt so alive and excited brings me such happiness I can’t even describe it.Now I can finally… move on. Officially. She’s here, completely safe and happy and she doesn’t need me anymore. By the time I get back home, Rio is no longer sleeping on the couch and everything looks clean so I think he's gone to his room. I almost go over to ask him if he's feeling better, but I think that would be over doing it. It's just an injured ankle, it wasn't even broken or anything. I don't have to be so fucking overbear

  • A Healer For The Alpha   Not On You

    { Alejandro }Before going to sleep last night I took the last pill thinking it would be enough to last me at least until noon and give me enough time to go buy regular inhibitors at a pharmacy. Sadly, I was wrong.In the middle of the night my wolf woke up, I got dizzy and my body got completely hot, worryingly hot, just like it happened when I slept in Laurie's apartment, except even stronger now. Around six in the morning when I couldn't take it anymore and I had to do something to relieve my body, I realized that this level of horniness and need is not normal, so that means my heat is here. My first heat. And I was so damn sure that inhibitors would make that impossible. Fucking inhibitors, my body got used to them way too fast.I manage to grab my phone and text Zee to get the fuck out of the apartment without me, then I had to masturbate one last time, now with my fingers inside of me because I couldn't fight the urge any longer. It was not enough, but I doze off.When I wa

    For some reason I don't mind that Zion is carrying me, I just let him, and I even hug his shoulders, enjoying the moment. 'Give up,' my wolf tells me, 'Just give up. Let him have us.'That sounds really perfect right now, I can't really remember the reasons why I wouldn't want to just surrender and let him have me. I let my face fall into his neck and kiss him there, scenting my mate. He is so warm and perfect, he manages to make all my worrying and stressful thoughts go out the window until me and my wolf are on the same page, horny and needy of him. We are so excited we got to meet our fated mate, our Alpha. Our person, the one who is going to take care of us and love us forever. "There is some meat I can warm up, do you want that?" he asks but I’m getting so dizzy that I start to feel high until I finally feel myself disappearing. My wolf takes control once again. "I'll eat whatever you want to give me, Alpha," I reply, not wanting to let go even as he pulls things out of the

    { Zion }It's been four days. Four days since my life completely changed. For four days I've been having the most intense sex of my life with Rio... or, rather, Omega. For some reason he really hates it when I mess up and call him Rio. The sex has been so intense and strong that my whole body is constantly sore. I’ve been through so many physically straining situations and yet, this has been more tiring on my body. I like it, though, and my dick likes it even more. Rio decided not to return to his own body after that delicious fuck on the couch. After that it's been just me and my mate, my lovely Omega, loving each other and fucking like Mother Nature intended us to, and I understand her so much because it's so perfect between us. These have been the best four days of my life. I finally understand what love is, I feel it all around me and inside of me so strongly, there’s no denying it. I never thought I would be in a relationship... but here I am.I mean, yes, I've had many 're

    I stay in my room for the rest of the day so I don't have to see Zion again, even when he stood outside my door knocking for almost five minutes straight, I ignored him until he decided to leave. Then I came out and found a plate full of food on the floor. That was great because I was starving. But still, I stay in my room because I have no inhibitors and I want the next time I hang out with Zee to be as it used to be, as an ‘alpha’, maybe then we can keep everything normal for a while. It's eight at night when Zee starts knocking on my door again. I think maybe he's bringing me more food, so I open the door, but he's empty handed. "Come out, my aunt is here and she wants to meet you," he says and my mouth drops open."What?! Zee, I don't have inhibitors, you never brought me the bottle I asked for!""I bought them, but I don't want to give them to you anymore. I already told Alana you're my fated mate anyway," he shrugs like it's not important at all, "She's my only family. I was

    "Remember how I said I was going to kill myself if you say no? I wasn't kidding," Alex says, still holding the ring out to me. His eyes are starting to get crazier with each passing second I don't answer."Yes. Yes, I'll fucking marry you," I reply just to stop him from going crazy, but I can't even comprehend this shit. Alex sighs with relief so I grab his arm to pull him up. He takes the ring he bought and lifts my hand to put it on my finger. It’s a gold band. I never thought for even a second that someone could propose to me, "Can I ask what the fuck is going on without you threatening to kill yourself or lying?" "You said yes just so I wouldn't kill myself?" Alex asks with a pout, "You don't really want to marry me?""Yes I do! But I'm still angry and confused," I tell him, not knowing what to do with my hands. Or with him. He looks so much prettier today than the last time I saw him. His hair is a little longer, his cheeks red, his eyes bright. "I saw you on that damn TV show

    Rio told me all about how Grandpa helped him with his new business, that damn cookie place he wanted so badly and still hasn't taken me to. Rio told me everything, so I know perfectly well who to go to first. "Hi, Grandpa, good morning.”“Good morning, Alex, what brings you here so damn early?” He asks.“Uhm, well. I know you helped Rio with his cookie place. So... today I come to you with my own business plan. And I dare say, mine is even better," I blurt out as soon as my grandfather comes down to the living room. I'm already sitting on the couch waiting for him in my formal clothes, although I intercepted him on his day off so my grandfather is wearing his pajamas and robe. Grandma comes down the stairs behind him too and looks at me with a smile."Oh, look at you, you look so cute with your little bow tie," she says as she comes over to give me a kiss, "Have you had breakfast yet? I'll make you something, sweetie.""Okay, grandma, thank you," I say and wait for my grandfather to

    When I get out of the car and I look up at my house, I suddenly start crying, unable to control it. Lunanci arrives at my side and she holds my hand as the guys walk inside the house to give me space. I'm crying because being here feels good, it feels right. Running away after my presentation because I was angry at the world and at myself was very silly. Before that day I was actually very happy. My life was very good. So, I let one single problem snowball into the biggest shit-show ever. It made me hate my own family because of some dumb harmless comments. It made me hate myself and it made me put on a whole circus that culminated in everyone hating my guts. But at this point, I realize that I should have just eaten one of Rio's cookies and accepted myself as I am. Because there is no other option. I can't change myself and I can't be miserable and bitter forever. So all I can do is, accept my lame ass fate and make the best of it, as Luna told me. "Are you ready?" She asks. I

    { Alejandro }After my wolf cried for hours, dejected and depressed because Zee is going to leave him, I manage to calm him down a little but only when I promise him that we are going to go see his Alpha. What am I going to tell Zee when I see him? I have no fucking idea, but it's the only thing I could think of to make my wolf feel better.So, now I'm heading to Zee's apartment in the middle of the night. I guess maybe I'll say goodbye... and thenmaybe my wolf can convince him to stay here. If Zion really loves me like he said, he'll stay. And he’ll give me a chance to make things right with him. That’s all I need, a little chance. I get to the restaurant and fortunately, it's open, so I go upstairs and I knock on the door. No answer. When almost fifteen minutes go by and no one answers the door, I start to worry. It's only three in the morning, the party should still be on, right? Usually around four or five is when people start leaving. But I guess they left early this time.

    I don't know how much time has passed, how many days have passed since I got dumped by everyone, but my mind doesn't leave me alone for a single second. And it’s not even my wolf, it’s all myself.I don't have to take inhibitors anymore because there is no reason to, but I keep doing it mostly because I like the silence but also because I want to protect my wolf. I know he’d hate the way my life is going right now. My life is still in a dark abyss and I can't get out out there because there is no way out. I have no direction and no one to guide me out of there. I’m all alone and miserable. The only good thing I have in my life at the moment is Lunanci, forcing me to go out with her, to eat with her and she makes me laugh for a while. I feel good while I'm with her, but when she leaves me alone I remember that I have nothing else. Just me, myself and I, and we all hate each-other. Laurent stopped talking to me, just like Rio. They both hate me now. Zee hates me, too. My whole famil

  • A Healer For The Alpha   Defeated

    { Zion }Seeing Alex and Rio side by side confuses me a lot. They’re not identical at all, Rio is totally an alpha. And Alex is totally an omega. A tall one. I don't understand why he's so conflicted about that.Seeing Alex hurt by his brother's horrible words soften my heart, it even helps me push my wolf away and make him forget his jealousy right now because Alex looks so sad all of a sudden. "Why is everything so damn hard for me? I just want to have everything I want, why can't I?" he lets out, in a vulnerable little voice that makes me forget the fact that he is a manipulative liar. He's just a kid and everything is blowing up around him. "Baby..." I say, trying to move closer to him and take him in my arms. "You need to stop," he spits towards me suddenly, walking close to me menacingly with wild, crazy eyes just like his brother's. In that they're totally the same, they're both crazy, "I'm not your baby. I've been telling you I don't want you and I don't want this, why can

    { Alejandro }Rio is here, I just ran into him on my way to the restaurant. And he doesn't look good at all. He looks too thin, too pale, too upset. "Rio," I whisper, unable to believe he's really here. He gives me an angry look, but I ignore it for a second because I look behind Rio and I realize Zee is there. And Lunanci. Fuck, "I-I'll explain.""Don't worry, I don't need explanations," my brother says, laughing in a sinister way, "Your lover boy here wants to call Mom. We should, right? We should have mom come here and find out everything her omega son has been up to.""No," I whisper, unable to even come up with an excuse or anything because this is so sudden, I hadn't planned anything, "Please.""Ow, that's such a soft voice now that you've been fucking caught," Rio spits towards me, sounding completely not like himself. Rio's not like that, he never gets angry and certainly not in such a serious way, "I would love to see you cry when she finds out, but I'll just let you do your

    My throat closes up as I watch Rio get into the ring. This could go very badly or maybe not as much, but no matter what, I just don't want to see anyone beat Rio up. It's just not supposed to be like this. Why the hell did I end up with the craziest omega on the continent? "Next up, Rio Taffy and," I pretend to think about it, "Mario Ramirez, come here."Rio snorts and starts shaking his head as soon as he sees Mario approaching. Mario is the smallest, he's even shorter than Rio. Rio should take the easy way out I'm offering him, but of course his ego won't let him. I close my eyes in stress as soon as I see his chest popping out. "I want to fight an Alpha, please," he says. Mario rolls his eyes, he's too used to being looked down on at this point to be phased. He tries to walk away, but I stop him."Sorry, but no. He's the only option," I say as if it makes me very sad to have to break the news to him, but he knows I'm lying. "I want to fight an alpha, Zion, are you going to let

    The next day at the academy, I see Rio on the track because we’re having another endurance test. This time he surprises me by running at the same pace as his teammates for two full hours. I'm watching him proudly when a guy named Jerry loses his stride and ends up falling face first to the ground. I silently cheer for his failure because that means Rio won't be punished today. Fifteen minutes later, Rio falls to his knees, completely exhausted. I immediately run to him to get him off the track before he gets hurt, and he slaps my hands as soon as he's stable."I can walk by myself," he growls, and I let him go. I follow his slow pace until we reach the loser's bench and sit down next to Jerry. Now that Rio’s here, I don't look at the track at all because I don't care what's going on there. I just want to see his face. And it's even funnier because he can feel my gaze and he starts to get all nervous under my eyes, so much so that he suddenly can't stand it anymore and gets up."I'm
