AriaThey roll across the forest floor in a blur of motion, claws and teeth flashing in the dappled sunlight. Blood spatters the leaves, the coppery scent of it thick and cloying in the air.I know I should do something, should throw myself between them and put an end to this madness before one of them winds up dead. But I can't seem to make myself move, can't seem to do anything but watch in mute horror as the two males I love most in this world try to tear each other apart.It's Callum who falters first, his weakened body no match for Elijah's savage strength. He stumbles, his flank laid open by a vicious swipe of claws, and Elijah presses his advantage with a snarl of triumph.And then his jaws are closing around Callum's throat, and the world seems to freeze in a single, crystalline moment of perfect, terrible clarity.I know in that instant that I am about to watch the father of my child die. That I am about to lose him forever, just when I had finally begun to hope that we might

AlyssaHere I am... Jacksonville, Oregon. It's been three months already since my parents and little sister died in that stupid car crash. My family were rogues, castaway from their pack when my wolf failed to come. I left everything behind, my memories, my past... my life. All I have left is this backpack and the moon-shaped amulet my mother gave me when I was a little girl. I'm twenty years old and I'm still waiting for my wolf. But it seems like she never comes. And now here I stand, at the gate of the Blackwood mansion. That's the family that accepted me into their pack when none other would. I'll help around the house and stuff. Thanks uncle Mike... I owe you big time for putting a good word for me.I approach the gates when a guy shows up with two dogs on leashes "Hey there" He says as he stops next to me "You must be the new kid?" He asks smiling "Yeah." I answer him not knowing what else to say. "I'm Alyssa Bailey. Mr. Blackwood is expecting me." He tells me his name before op

AlyssaThe sun is setting in the horizon casting an orange glow across the sky. I stare at the clouds moving lazily above the trees watching them turn pinkish red then fade away as night falls. I stretch my arms over my head yawning loudly. I stand stretching my legs and back getting ready for bed. Suddenly, the door opens making me jump startled by its suddenness."Hey, Alyssa!" Adam yells coming towards me. "You forgot something."He hands me a bag containing my clothes and shoes."Thanks," I mumble taking it from him."Don't forget to wash my things tomorrow," he reminds me still standing in the doorway."Okay..." I respond turning to leave."Wait," he calls stopping me mid-step."Yeah?" I question suspiciously."Can we talk?" He asks quietly."Talk about what?" I retort frowning."About why you are here." He states flatly. He looks angry.I shrug my shoulders. "Because your dad, Alpha Trey gave me a job."His jaw clenches. "That's not good enough." He turns walking past me heading

AdamUseless. I don't know what my father was thinking when he agreed to welcome this mutt into our pack. Alyssa is worthless. She's weak. She can barely hold her own against me. She couldn't even protect herself yesterday morning. What kind of weakling could that be?"Then do what I ask," I growl grabbing her wrist tightly. Her eyes widen with fear."Let go," she whispers trying to jerk her hand free from mine."If you won't listen to me then maybe you need to hear it through the voice of an Alpha," I snap glaring down at her."Stop it, Adam!" Mother shouts from the doorway. "You're hurting the girl.""She needs to learn respect," I snarl. "And no matter what happens, I will make sure she knows it."Mother sighs and shakes her head. "Go take a shower so you can look presentable. Then get dressed and meet me downstairs."I release Alyssa's wrist and turn to leave. I'm going to show my mother exactly what she has brought into our home. We will teach this little bitch a lesson she'll ne

Alyssa"You're a jerk and I fucking hate you," I shout at Adam as tears start running down my cheeks."Look, I'm really sorry. Can we please just forget this ever happened?" He asks reaching for me.I slap his hand away angrily. "Fuck you! And fuck anyone that thinks it's acceptable to treat women like shit."Adam stares at me speechless. "How dare you say such things to me? How can you possibly think that after what my father has done for you?""I said, 'fuck you!' Are you deaf?" I scream. "Do you understand English?"He steps closer to me until there are only inches between us. His hands rest against my shoulders. "Stop yelling at me," he whispers softly. "I never meant any harm to you."My heart skips a beat hearing his voice again. "Then why did you try to make me feel bad?"His jaw tightens and he shakes his head. "I don't trust you. That's all.""Why does that matter? Why would you care whether I trust you or not?""That's none of your business.""Oh yeah, sure," I scoff. "You k

AlyssaI wake early the next morning feeling groggy and confused. I must've fallen asleep during the night because the last time I remember seeing the clock was 9 pm. I check my phone for messages or missed calls but nothing comes up. I glance at the window to see the sun shining brightly outside.I lay in bed listening to the sounds coming from downstairs. Someone is cooking breakfast which means they are already awake. I climb out of bed stretching my arms above my head enjoying the stretch. I have to get dressed and go help Alice in the kitchen. I don't want her to do it alone since she has been doing most of the work lately. I pull my clothes on slowly trying to decide whether I should wear jeans or shorts.My hair needs washing too so maybe I could wash that before leaving my room. I run my fingers through my long brown locks pulling them back into a ponytail. I pick up my toothbrush and brush my teeth thoroughly scrubbing hard to clean every surface of my mouth. Then I spit the

Alyssa The rest of the day passes slowly. My mind is preoccupied with wondering what Brynne meant when she spoke of the 'truth' of myself. Was there something wrong with me? Had my parents kept it hidden from me somehow? Were they ashamed of me? Being in a home without knowing the truth of my origins doesn’t feel right. I just want answers. I'm so tired of not understanding anything about who and where I am. It feels like an endless cycle, one that I can never escape. "Alyssa," Adam shouts from downstairs. "Time to go show you around." I don't trust this guy. He's been nothing but a total ass ever since I arrived in the Blackwood pack. He makes sure to tell everyone exactly how little he likes me. Well, screw him! This is my life now. I grab my phone off the floor and head down the stairs to find Adam waiting outside in front of the main doors, wearing a pair of jeans and a black t-shirt. "I'm good. Don't worry... you don't have to go with me anywhere. We can just tell Luna Brynne

AdamI'm in my wolf form, crouched low to the ground, watching her through narrowed slits. She's terrified but determined to fight. Her breathing becomes erratic, making it difficult to track her movements.She kicks wildly, striking me repeatedly. I could rip her limb from limb easily, but something about her defiance intrigues me. Something that tells me she may be worth keeping alive.I shift slightly, moving closer to her so that I can smell her fear. My nose twitches as I catch a hint of her blood as she scratched herself.Her eyes are wild as they dart everywhere, looking for some kind of salvation. I lift one large black paw, placing it gently on hers. Immediately, she freezes. A smile creeps across my muzzle as I begin to rub it along the length of her arm. She makes me furious, yet her scent invokes such powerful feelings within me. I want to kill her just as much as I crave to protect her.I lick my lips and inhale deeply. Her sweet scent overwhelms me, driving my wolf crazy

Alpha's Healer Chapter 66
Adam I bolt awake, heart pounding. Alyssa's screams and Sophia's cries echo in my head. I swipe a hand across my damp forehead, breathing hard. Just a nightmare. But it felt so real. My wolf strains against its cage, howling to go to them. I know they need me. I stumble out of the nest into the cool night air. The stars shine down, distant and uncaring. How did I let this happen? I promised to protect them, to keep them safe. But I left them alone, at the mercy of the threat I should've ended. Alyssa. Her fear reached out in my dreams, begging for help. But I'm too late. My rival won; he has her trapped, waiting to finish this. I abandoned her to that fate. I abandoned my heart. And Sophia. My little light, my joy. She cries for her mother, afraid and alone. What's going to happen to her if I don't do something? I have to go back. Now, before all hope is lost and the future is decided. Before the light goes out for good. My wolf snarls again, straining to break free. To hell with

AlyssaDuran corners me as I gather herbs, lust, and fury warring in his eyes. My pulse quickens. "Alyssa, stop these games. You will be my mate."I square my shoulders, meeting his predatory gaze. "I follow my duty to your pack, but my heart belongs to another. I cannot be your mate, Duran."He moves closer, crowding me against the rock face. "You forget your place, little healer. I am Alpha here, and I will not be denied what I desire."The darkness radiating from him overwhelms my senses. My gift shrieks a warning of the evil now awakened and poised to descend. I have pushed him too far.Duran grabs my chin, forcing me to look at him. "You will come to care for me in time. I can be patient when I wish. But do not forget who rules this pack, and what I want, I shall have."His fingers leave bruises on my skin. I wrench away, stumbling down the path. His bellow follows, "You cannot escape me forever, Alyssa! I will make you mine!"I run as if the hounds of hell snap at my heels throu

AdamThe forest blurs around me as I race between the trees, my paws pounding the earth. My heart thunders in my chest, refusing to accept what my senses tell me - they are gone. Vanished like the morning mist under the glare of the rising sun. I stop, throwing back my head to howl in rage and grief, the sorrowful sound echoing through the empty woods.I continue searching. Exhaustion drags at my limbs, but still, I hunt for any sign to cling to hope. Their scent has disappeared, erased as though they were never here. I stumble on through the black of night, guided only by the light of the moon overhead.Finally, I return home as the pale glow of dawn brightens the sky. The pack emerges from their dens, wary of my approach. I shift back, standing before them with my shoulders bowed under the weight of failure. Murmurs rise around me as they take in my disheveled, haggard appearance. Their Alpha, broken and aimless without his mate and child. Helpless to protect them. Useless to lead a

Alyssa Duran's invitation for dinner fills me with anxiety. As the Alpha, I can't say no, but his feelings for me create expectations I can't meet. The day passes too quickly. When night falls, I go to Duran's cabin, bracing myself for the evening to come. Duran greets me with a warm smile. "Welcome. I'm glad you could come." "Thank you for inviting me, Alpha." The proper response, hiding my inner turmoil. Duran's eyes gleam as he shows me inside, and my pulse jumps. The table is covered with a delicious spread. I take small bites, my appetite ruined by the unspoken question hanging between us. Duran watches me over his wine glass, patient but unwavering in his silent demand. "Your healing skills are invaluable. My pack has benefited greatly since you joined us. I feel...very fortunate you found shelter here after your mate's death." A calculated mention, trying to get a reaction. I chew slowly, my mind racing, before offering a tight smile. "You are too kind to help us in our ti

Alyssa The forest blurs around me as I run, clutching Sophia's hand tightly in mine. My legs burn but I don't slow. We have to get away. Far away. Sophia's steps falter. "Mama, wait, please. I can't run anymore." I stop and kneel before her, brushing leaves from her hair. "I know, sweetheart. I'm sorry. Just a little farther, OK?" Sophia nods bravely but when I stand, her ankle gives out beneath her. She cries out as she tumbles to the ground. "Sophia!" My heart drops as I scoop her into my arms. She whimpers, tears streaming down her face as she holds her ankle. No, not now. We have to keep going. I carry Sophia over to a large oak tree and set her down in the roots. "Let me see." Gently, I remove her shoe and sock. Her ankle is already swollen, the delicate joint red and puffy. No doubt it's sprained. Sophia sniffles. "It hurts, Mama." "I know, baby." I stroke her hair and kiss her forehead, panic rising in my chest. We're exposed here. Vulnerable. "Let me wrap it. We'll get

AdamThe pack celebrates into the night, but within me is only darkness. I stand alone in our quarters, Alyssa's lingering scent a bittersweet torment. My mate, my heart—she's gone. And by my own cursed hand.I slam my fist into the wall, relishing the burst of pain. I deserve far worse for what I've done. My weakness shattered the most precious gift I ever possessed: Alyssa's eternal love and trust.A mournful howl escapes my throat, echoing my anguish to the uncaring stars. Some Alpha I've proven to be. I couldn't even protect my own family from the sinister magic I should have sensed. And now, thanks to my foolish actions, Alyssa has disappeared like the fading moon at dawn, taking our daughter Sophia with her.At dawn I begin the search, following Alyssa and Sophia's scents through our territory. But at the border, the trail ends abruptly. Alyssa, cunning as ever, has masked their path using magic to keep them hidden. To keep them safe from me.By nightfall, I return home, defeate
Alpha's Healer Chapter 60
AlyssaWithout my mate, my powers are weakened. But Marcus stands resolute at my side, lending me his strength. "They do not know the force they have unleashed. Adam would never raise a claw to harm you or your child, bond or no bond."We work what spells we can to pierce the sinister haze clouding Adam's mind. Marcus leads me to where Adam has barricaded himself, refusing entrance to the pack. But when we break through, the evil infesting Adam's soul lashes out in rage.Adam lunges with claws extended and fangs bared, madness gleaming in his eyes. Too weak to raise proper defenses, I stumble back - but Marcus intercepts, shielding me with his body as he pleads with Adam to remember who he is.For a heartbeat, clarity returns, and Adam blinks down at us in confusion. But then the demon reclaims its hold, and Adam roars, knocking Marcus brutally aside. I scramble to Marcus as he struggles to rise, bloodied but unbowed, still placing himself between Adam and me.We are no match for Adam
Alpha's Healer Chapter 59
AlyssaThe wolf prowling towards me is a stranger. Adam's eyes, once glowing with warmth and laughter, now burn with rage and suspicion. His hackles rise and a sinister growl rumbles in his chest as he backs me into a corner, teeth bared."How long have you been plotting against me?" he snarls. Gone is the mate I love, replaced by this menacing beast I do not know."Adam, it's me," I plead, keeping my tone soft and submissive. But my words do not reach him. The Adam I knew is trapped behind those hate-filled eyes."Lies!" He snaps at me, his muzzle a breath from my throat. "I should have known you could never be trusted. You're in league with our enemies, aren't you?"Confusion and pain flood me. "I would never betray you! I am your mate. Don't you know me?""I know what you are." Adam's lips curl back further, slaver dripping from his fangs. "And you will never set foot in my territory again."He lunges. I brace myself, ready to fight the creature wearing my mate's flesh. But a massi
