17. Cursed
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56“You are cursed!” I shout at him before he gets a chance to speak, I probably should not have thrown a book at him but right now I feel like I have every right too. His dark eyes flash at me, they seemed darker than usual, almost like I was looking into a black abyss.
“Where did you find this?”, he holds the book out to me, his voice is low and I could hear the growl behind it.
“Library” his low growl was making me nervous, and images of Maddox and Hayden in the same mood and hitting me flood my mind. I back away from Daryl, preparing myself to run, I had clearly pissed him off and now I was going to be punished for it.
“Did someone show you it?” I shake my head and he grabs my arm, squeezing a little.
“It was up high”
Daryl frowns and lets go of me and I see the red marks that linger around my wrist from his grip followed by shooting pains as i clench and unclench my hand. He walks away f

Alpha Daryl 18. Secrets
Daryl had been certain about getting my wolf back and the last few days he had hardly been in the packhouse, whenever I saw him he hardly spoke or he would tell me off for being out of bed. Sometimes I would wake in the night and he would be sound asleep next to me yet by the time I woke in the morning he would be gone.Jordan reassured me that Daryl was just busy but I didn’t like it, before he wanted to know where I was at all times and now he barely wanted to be in the same room as me.For the fifth night in a row I woke up and he was already asleep next to me but now, now it was pissing me off and I carefully climbed out of bed trying not to wake him. Quietly sneaking out the room, I head down the corridor and too his office, if he was hiding something then it had to be in here.I try the door handle but its locked, that was strange in itself as he never locked his office, sighing because it would be easier if he had left it open, maybe he had left the
Alpha Daryl 19. Below the surface
“That will teach you for going out in the snow with no coat or foot wear”I rolled my eyes at Daryl’s comment and continue to shiver. He had piled loads of blankets on me but I was still ice cold and when I started sneezing he looks panicked. He holds the back of his hand against my head and I watch as his eyes glaze over.“Why didn’t you listen to Jordan?”, Again, I don’t answer him and he sighs “I will not take much more of this”“You going to mark me again?” I manage to get the words out between chattering teeth and I can see the recognition on his face when he makes the connection. I had woken up and he wasn’t there again.“Ashley, we have been through this. Are you determined to stay injured?”Turning my face away from him and closing my eyes, I didn’t hear the Doctor come in and when his hand touched my face, I jumped, smacking his hand away.&ldq
Alpha Daryl 20. Raging fire
Loud banging woke me from my deep slumber and as I rubbed my eyes I realised that it was already morning, quite late actually because it was winter which meant the sun was fully up about 10ish and currently the bright winter sun was beaming in through my window.Images of the night before come back and I feel my cheeks heat. My body was doing strange things, I hated how easily I had given myself to Daryl when I still wasn’t sure if I could fully trust him.He had already gotten up and I take a few careful steps to the bathroom and let the hot water of the shower take my worries away. As I finished in the shower I heard my stomach rumble and I realised how hungry I was. I hadn’t felt like this in a long time and hurry to dress and head to the kitchen.I was alone in the kitchen and made myself a bowl of cereal but that wasn’t enough and by the time Daryl appears in the kitchen, I had eaten two bowls of cereal, an apple, an orange and a packet of
Alpha Daryl 21. The surprise
“Are you waking up today?” Daryl’s voice was loud and clear but I pull the covers up over my head, hiding myself from him whilst keeping my eyes tightly closed. I was not ready to get up, all those pack members had seen me making an idiot of myself in the snow.The covers get pulled off of me, a cold breeze hitting every inch of my skin and I become very aware that I am naked. Reaching out for the covers, I hear Daryl laugh at me “No, you need to get up” and I groan trying to hide myself with the pillows.“You don’t need to hide yourself from me, I have seen it all”The comment makes me sit up right, hugging the pillows. I knew he had seen me naked but it wasn’t about that, I didn’t like people looking at me and my disfigured body.“How is the heat this morning?”I nodded, I didn’t feel like I did last night which was something. I watch Daryl as he moves around the bedroo
Alpha Daryl 22. The Witch Confidant
I heard sniggers from behind and turned to see a bunch of school girls standing and watching us. Although Daryl doesn’t release his arms from me, he still refuses to let me have him. As Cole brings the car around, Daryl forces me inside and climbs in after me, mounting him, I waste no time in trying to unbutton his shirt, I didn’t care that Cole was sat in the front seat, I didn’t even care that I was still a virgin. I just wanted Daryl.As I reach for another button, he grabs my hands and tells me to stop but my body ignored every word and I whine like I was desperate. The whine stops me, I hated how I sounded, I had worked hard over the years to keep my emotions hidden and this urgency of desire and need was different. Daryl drops my hands and they instantly move to his buttons again, it was like I couldn’t control it and something else had taken over my body.“Please make me stop”I hadn’t begged up until now but I ha
Alpha Daryl 23. Searching for freedom
Paige tries to reassure me but it doesn't work, right now, I didn’t know what was worse, staying a slave for Black night or being permanently without a wolf. Daryl tried to comfort me but when I pushed him away for the final time, he gets up and leaves, leaving me with someone I barely knew. Paige tells me that I was grieving for what I could have had, she also tells me she has been working on undoing the curse for nearly a decade and she feels she is getting closer. Her words do not make me feel any better and I stand to leave “Please don’t go. There will be no one to guard you” Her words fall flat as I open the door and step out into the darkness. Daryl or Cole were nowhere to be seen along with the car. Glancing back at Paige, I shrug and start walking into the night. Racing after me, she tells me that its not safe and to come back inside but I ignore her and start running, kicking off my shoes as I moved. Right now, in this moment, I didn’
Alpha Daryl 24. Finding Amber
Tana guided me to a group of women sitting around a smaller fire, away from those that were dancing around the bonfire, she introduces me as the princess and immediately they swarm me, asking questions that I couldn’t answer, running their fingers over my skin and hair, small gasps coming from the women as they spot the mark on my lower back “It’s really her”, “She is here”.The closeness of the women made me feel uncomfortable and when I look up Tana is gone and everyone continues to surround me “Princess, we will look after you”, “Princess are you hungry?” they kept throwing question after question at me when I just wanted to be alone.“Ladies, give the princess some space”I look up to see that Tana had returned, fully clothed in a long dark dress, boots and a cardigan. Immediately the women drop their fingers and leave a pathway between me and Tana. Rushing forward, Tana embraces me &ldq
Alpha Daryl 25. Alpha of Alphas
Hours turned in to days and days turned into weeks, every time I saw Amber she couldn’t speak but she would drop notes either telling me Daryl was okay and he was working hard or saying that she was working on it but either way I was never allowed out my tiny room and guards stood at my door day and night.Daryl constantly talked to me, yet no matter how hard I tried, he couldn’t here a single word I was saying. I was growing desperate by the day and even begged the guards to let me out to stretch my legs, I didn’t even care if they came with me. At least at Black night even if I was confined as a punishment, they would allow me a guarded walk and then there were the times I was working, this though, this was pure hell.I hadn’t seen Tana either since I was put in this room and I still didn’t understand what they meant when they told me I had to stay here until I was old enough to take back control. I was old enough to be mated.Sin

Alpha Daryl Epilogue.
A few months has passed since all the craziness with Lucian. Things had settled down massively, well, apart from being thrown into motherhood and raising triplets. I was just glad I wasn’t doing it on my own.Daryl was still getting used to having a smaller pack. Although he had already been out trying to recruit other packs that were smaller than ours. Some had accepted whereas others had told him where to go. The pack was still much smaller than the average wolf pack with less than a hundred people now after many had lost their lives in the fight against my brother, but he was certain he would make it great again. After all, he really wanted to pass on an almighty pack to Daryl Junior, the eldest of the triplets.In just a few months the three of them had grown quite quickly, instead of being like three-month-olds, they looked more like eighteen month olds and certainly liked to keep me busy and on my toes, especially since they were already walking and running. I assumed they were

More bullets come as I keep low, the stench of Lucian’s blood filling the air as he hovers above me. With each bullet, I am splattered in his blood, but it continues to do little more than slow him down.“You have not learnt a thing!” he roars at me as his claws wrap around my neck, lifting me from the ground.I should have been afraid, scared for my own life as I faced death when he suddenly stills. My feet dangling in the air at least ten inches from the ground. His deep amber eyes staring into mine, but he was quiet, no sound was coming from Lucian and yet everyone around us was yelling.His claws pierced the skin of my neck, my own blood trickling down over my cool skin as I watched Lucian’s nostrils flare. He was enjoying my scent, like it was something he had been longing for. This was not in my plan.His teeth sink into my shoulder as I let out a scream, and I see people charging towards Lucian. Daryl was shouting out something about protecting the Luna.Lucian’s jaw refuses to

“I will stop this.” I try to reassure the tiny beast in my arms, but I still didn’t know if I could even kill him, if it was even possible.“She will never be yours!” Lucian’s voice howls around us making Natasha’s little beast cling to me harder. Her tiny claws piercing my skin as they dug into me, her body trembling as his voice echoes around us.“Drop the spell.” I whisper to the small beast. Lucian was using her to put the spell around the dungeons, to stop others from getting any closer, but she was still a baby, could she even understand what I was saying? Could my reassurance be enough?Her small furry body continues to tremble against mine until it suddenly stops, momentarily scaring the crap out of me. When I hear soft snuffles coming from her and gently turn her head. She had fallen asleep on me. She had gone from a terrified little beast to one in a deep sleep, she had needed me so much more than I had ever known, and I feel a shift inside of me. The need to protect her, no

“It’s not that simple is it. I may have some magical abilities, but he still has years over me. Years of training, years of knowledge, years of planning what he calls his redemption.”“But there is something he possibly didn’t account for. A mother’s love, a mate’s love. The fact that a whole pack will be right behind you.”It just didn’t seem true. Maybe I had been looking at this all wrong and it wasn’t just my fight anymore.“Then how am I supposed to make myself stronger?”“You already know Ash, look at the things you have been capable of. Personally, I don’t think you give yourself enough credit.”I was completely soaked from the heavy rain as I stared up into his amber eyes, the blue flecks shining brightly through the storm. It wasn’t just me that had changed but it seemed like he had too. His once sulky and moody self had mellowed out.“What ever happens Ash, you have three babies that need you.”I slowly bob my head, he was right, but I had still left them to check on my best

No one stops me, no one even comes after me as I race through the forest towards her house. She had to be here, it was where it had all started.As I break out of the forest, I see it, her small house sitting on the opposite side of the road. A trail of blood leading up the few steps as the door sat open. Anyone could walk in here, anything could have found her.Creeping towards the house, I knew the trail of blood belonged to her. It was dry though and had been sat here for a while, but it didn't remove her scent.“Tasha?” I call out her name as I step in through the front door, hoping for some kind of response but I was met with silence and what was worse is the trail of blood ended in the middle of the room. There was nothing, no body, no pool of dried red, but more importantly there was no sound.The floorboards didn’t creak like I was used to, no weird smell from all the herbal teas she had scattered around.“Can you hear her?” I mutter to Reaper. I didn’t even know why I was ask

The omega keeps her head low, not speaking as she remained in the room. She was our biggest risk right now; she was the only one to know that I had had a third baby and I couldn’t have her revealing that information, not to anyone.“You can’t say anything!” I plead with her, hoping that she would understand.“They need to be checked over.” She mumbles back at me and Daryl shakes his head“Kiera, you cannot tell anyone, you cannot share the news of Ash having a third child. Do you understand?” He was using his Alpha tone, a tone that I was only to familiar with.The omega gulps, her eyes wide as she slowly nods her head.“I need you to say it Kiera!”“I won’t tell anyone, but how are you going to hide her, what if she is a poorly pup?”Daryl looks between me and the omega as I gently rock our little girl.“Kiera, you will become Ashley’s personal maid. You will do nothing else in the house except for helping Ash and tending to the children and monitoring any changes in them!”“But the

“For you!” Lucian punches the stone wall of his cell, splitting the skin on his knuckles which heals instantly.“I don’t understand”“Of course you don’t sister.” He laughs manically as he tries to pull the bars apart. I was glad Daryl had reinforced them.“You weren’t to know I was going to have children.”He looks at me from the corner of his eye. I was so stupid, I had told him of the vision, the one where I was left alone with twins, the one where Daryl was not in the picture. How could I have been so stupid?“You told me that not all visions were correct that some were just created in my own mind!”“Yes, but I saw that vision too, sister. Getting into your head was much easier than you trying to get into mine. Any time your wolf was dormant, it left an opening. A chance for me to see everything!”“Just kill him Ash” Daryl links me"Whicjh is why you wanted Amber to trap me?"He starts clapping."About time you figured that out."“You would never have found me without Daryl!” I ye

The omega hands her to me, she was much smaller than the boys with tufts of dark hair that matched Daryl’s, bright amber eyes peeping out under her eyelids.I still didn’t understand, the doctor had shown me the monitor, pointed out the two boys, how could he have missed a third baby or even a third heartbeat.Silent tears run down my face as I look at the three of them, how could I protect them? How could I protect my daughter from my brother? He was so set on taking her.“You did well.” The omega smiles at me as she drapes something over my legs, but I glance at the door. I had a bad feeling growing in the pit of my stomach.“He’s coming.” I mutter.There is fear on the omegas face as her eyes widen and her body stills.“You’re scared of him?”“Every omega is.” She sits next to me.“You know I’m not talking about Daryl, don’t you?”She nods her head and mutters Lucian’s name back to me.“What did he do to you?”He didn’t have anything to do with the omegas.“You don’t know?” she que

It was strange after experiencing Amber's world!Being able to run through Lucian’s mind with his beast chasing me was something I had never considered happening, nor did I think it was even possible and yet here I am. To be in someone’s mind was almost disgusting, you never know what they might be hiding and it was apparent that Lucian had been hiding alot.I had never bothered to ask the name of his beast, but something tells me it’s up there like mine. Reaper, another name for death and she certainly did have a dark side.“Tell me where she is!” I scream as I continue to run.“Give us your daughter!”“I have already told Lucian, they are boys, no females.”“You lie! I can smell it. You are carrying a girl!”Here I had no bump, if anything my stomach was flatter than flat. Was this how Lucian really saw me?He chases me through the greyness of Lucians mind. There was no colour, like he only saw things a certain way. Anytime I get a chance to grab something to throw, I do. Lucian con
