Healing the Ruthless Alpha FORTY
*KADE*I paced the cell the warriors threw me into without respect for my dignity. The people here did not know who I was and it showed. If they knew – If they knew – I deflated. The people in Alpha Blood pack were untouchable. They could not be wronged without their Alpha going berserk. Still, I needed to do something about these people. Especially their Alpha.How could he – No, how dare he undermine me like this?“He has to pay!” Flint was snarling but I shoved my wolf’s anger to the back of my mind. I didn’t need his anger to fuel mine and make me act without thought.Cahir Armani could not be underestimated and the way he flung a challenge at my face, I would be stupid to fall for his trap. He wanted me angry, he even encouraged it.Take your pound of flesh from me.He spoke with a sort of confidence and a gleam in his eyes that made me wary.Cahir Armani, you bastard!I needed to do something about the smug bastard but common sense told me to tread with caution.“What caution?”

I looked up at the ceiling in my room with a pillow clutched to my chest. My body tingled in a dozen different places and if I got up too fast, sharp pain in my back and legs made me sit back down. Cahir had bent me over in ways I did not think I was flexible enough to get into and then he chased me out of his room.“That isn’t how it happened, though.” Asena’s quiet voice echoed in my head but I said nothing in response to her.It may not have happened exactly like that but that was how I felt. How could he send me away to my room after we engaged in the most intimate of acts?“Have you considered he may have done it for our benefit? Isn’t it better to wear our clothes rather than –“ Asena trailed off, seeing that her excuse for her mate did not make perfect sense.I know I went too far wearing his clothes without first asking him but he didn’t have to tell me to go to my room for it. Since I came to his pack, I always slept in his room. Although he never shared the bed with me after

*CAHIR*…You treat me like shit!Those words resonated in my head as I drove to my office at midnight.What the fuck did she mean by I was treating her like shit!? Considering I never wanted a mate, I felt I was doing good enough with one. I never wanted a mate but I did not want any woman in my life to feel as if they were being mistreated.“Trouble in paradise?” Aristo walked into my office behind me.“Don’t bother me, I have to work.” I fell into my seat and powered on my computer while my Beta snickered from opposite me.“Why are you working when you can be balls deep in your Luna?”“Aristo.” I raised my head from my computer screen.Every day, he spoke about my woman and sex in such a casual way, that it irked my wolf. My Beta may be a man ruled by his dick ninety percent of the time, but he was smart enough the other ten percent of the time to know better than to continue discussing my mate as if she was a common woman and not his Luna.“Hey, don’t eat me. I am only –“ He laughe

My first reaction when I saw Avalon was to rush and hide. I’d forgotten she was in this pack with her family as punishment for what she did to me.“Sihana,” she sneered my name while she looked at me. Despite the bucket and mop she carried with her, Avalon maintained a dignified air with her fiery red hair pulled up in a slick bun.“Avalon, how are you?” I asked, tucking a hair strand behind my ear. I squashed the urge to run by reminding myself of my new station. I was the Luna of this pack – her Luna. She could not hurt me anymore. I won’t give her the chance to hurt me!“Why do you care?” She sneered again.If we were still in Silver Moon pack, her hand would have lashed out faster than I could blink as she dealt me a painful blow but this time, all she could do was glare at me and sneer. Her green eyes were alight with hatred that spread goosebumps all over my skin.“As the Luna – As the Luna, it’s my duty to care about every member of Alpha Blood pack,” I answered her, raising my

The look in Cahir’s eyes had Aristo jumping away while I swallowed a thick lump as goosebumps rose on my skin.“Now – Now that I think about it, I have – I have work to do. See you later!” Aristo broke into a jog as he escaped the fire blazing around his Alpha.“Good – Good morning,” I swallowed, feeling sweat break out on my forehead from the heat of the anger in his eyes.I felt the waves of his anger crash into me and I knew I had to dispel the rage building around him but after what happened the other night, I didn’t know how to face him.“How – How are you?” He didn’t look very good.Despite the anger around him, his expression remained impassive but the dark circles around his eyes worried my wolf. He looked like he had not slept a wink the previous night. I noticed then that he was still wearing the clothes from yesterday.“Did you sleep in the office?” I asked in alarm when he still did not say anything to me, choosing to stare at me with the anger rolling off him.“What were

“This is Sebastian. He will be responsible for your security from now on.” Cahir introduced me to a tall and lean muscular man.He had close-cropped sandy brown hair and he looked like he had never and would never smile a day in his life. The stoic expression on his face while he was introduced made me feel as if he didn’t like me - as if he thought guarding me would be a waste of his time. The words he spoke next made me realize I was right.“With all due respect, Alpha, I am the head of your guards. It is my duty to protect you and only you.” He turned away from me as if I wasn’t anything.“I don’t need your protection,” Cahir said to him without paying much attention. He seemed to be waiting for something – or someone. “She is my Luna. Protect her with your life.” With those words, he dismissed Sebastian.“Yes, Alpha.” He left Cahir’s office with that, giving me one last intense look before he left.“Sebastian is the best man to protect you,” Cahir informed me after the guard left.

"Luna, your friend from your old pack has come to visit you!" Maribeth grinned from ear to ear as she led my worst enemy towards me."Sihana –" Felicity pressed her thumbs together as she came closer.Laura's eyes bore into me. They must hear my heart beat faster as I looked at the girl who had caused me so much pain. The people from Silver Moon kept showing up in my new pack. First Kade, then Avalon, and now Felicity. Why wouldn't these people leave me alone!?"What are you doing here?" I didn't know why but I wasn't comfortable sitting with her standing in front of me so I pushed out of my seat."I arrived two days ago." She smiled at me. The smile was unlike any of the other smiles she had given me in the past. This one didn't look nasty. She looked unsure – weary – as she looked from Laura to Beth."What do you want?" Her presence here didn't make sense and it made me nervous."I am – I want to become a member of Alpha Blood pack." I felt a chill dance down my spine at the words t

“Sihana.” His brows furrowed as he called my name. “What is it?”“I hate how you treat me!” My lips quivered and my eyes stung. “It’s as if - it’s as if –“ I remembered how he reacted when I told him he treated me like shit. He didn’t want to be called out but this –“First you sold me off with no explanation and now – So many things that you keep doing without thinking of how I’d feel or maybe – maybe you’re doing them to hurt me. I don’t even know anymore!”“What would I gain from hurting you?” His cool voice asked and I shook my head. The tears were falling faster now, my emotions choking me as I tried to convey how I felt in words.“That’s the t – thing. I can’t – I don’t know. I don’t understand. Why are you doing this – Why is it?” Why did he make me feel worthless? What did he gain from making me feel like shit?“This keeps coming up so let me address it. I never sold you off. That was all a ruse to get Alpha Kade to agree to my terms. I told you to get ready to leave in two da

Healing the Ruthless Alpha EPILOGUE
“You smell fantastic,” Cahir burrowed his nose into my side. “I love this smell.”“You’re saying that because I smell like you.” And I did. He’d thoroughly covered me with his scent and he’d enjoyed every minute of it – I had too, there was no denying it but at this point, I was too tired to speak. My eyes drooped as he kissed my skin, his body heat telling me he wanted to go for a third round. My stamina could never match up with Cahir’s but now, I was heavily pregnant so I didn’t even try. In my second trimester, I’d become a horny wreck but these days, I found myself wanting to do nothing but sleep and sleep and then sleep some more. “I’m so tired,” I mumbled in a sleepy voice. “And my back aches.” “Do you want a massage?” His innocent words were tinged with heat that added an extra layer of meaning to his offer. “No, thank you.” I pushed up in bed. “Uggh, being pregnant is the worst,” I grumbled but then the baby kicked and I winced. “She heard that,” Cahir said with a chuck

We stayed at the hotel for a week while the Alpha Castle was renovated. That week, Cahir did not let me step out of the room. My temperature was high most of the time and we ended up pleading with the priestess to send the holy necklace to us rather than going to pick it up.It took a lot to convince the high priestess to entrust something so valuable to someone other than I, the recipient, but she finally relented and gave it to Laura accompanied by Sebastian. “Just touching this makes me feel so much better.” I sighed, rubbing a hand on the necklace. The other one I used to wear was sent back to the high priestess. “I’m glad,” Cahir said in a tired voice. There was a lot that needed to be done now that the battle was over. The number of casualties on our side was high. Corpses littered the streets, parents crying and mass funerals having to be held. There was also the matter of the sanction for the Greyson family. Their head had sponsored war on the pack so it wasn’t unfair to ha

Melanie led us out of the hideout after the shootout and my fire incident. We’d been discovered so we had to find another shelter. “The Alpha is unreachable. The only hideout similar to this which I know is east so we are going east.” Melanie informed us. “Here,” she threw clothes at me. I gulped when she mentioned Cahir being unreachable even though I didn’t want to think the worst. I changed as fast as possible into the black clothes Melanie handed to me and donned the baseball cap. “What’s the situation?” I asked when we got into the car. “Aristo is still on the loose. Five of the twelve packs under Alpha Blood have betrayed Alpha Cahir but the others have mobilized into action. Two borders have fallen but the Alpha has sent back up and they’ll be strengthened soon,” Melanie spoke in a businesslike tone. “Are you comfortable?” She glanced at my stomach. “Y – Yeah.” My heart pounded nonstop so I knew my blood pressure had risen. Catching on fire left my skin dry but the baby wa

*CAHIR*I was leaving my mate behind for the second time since this ordeal started. Unease pricked my skin and my wolf paced restlessly, more concerned for the safety of our mate than the safety of the millions of wolves in Alpha Blood. 'Are you sure she'll be fine?' Perseus asked, continuing to pace. 'Aristo, that bastard, you're sure he doesn't know that particular hideout?' 'I'm about sixty percent sure,' I responded truthfully, aggravating my wolf. 'He is the beta of this pack and he grew up roaming these grounds so there's every possibility that he knows the grounds better than me.' There was no shame in admitting that my beta was more familiar with my lands than I was – it was his duty to survey the pack and report to me, after all. 'Will Sihana be safe?' Perseus wanted reassurance but it was something I couldn't give him because I too had my doubts. It did not show on my face but I was terrified of leaving Sihana and the baby for a second, knowing my beta could find them and

“What’s happening?” I asked, twiddling my thumbs as I heard the stampede getting louder and louder. “Alpha, the dungeons have been opened!” Someone opened a mind link and forgot to channel it to only the Alpha so the whole pack heard it. “We’re going into lockdown,” Cahir said. His eyes unfocused for a minute as he mind linked the heads of various brigades. “Let’s go, Sia.” He outstretched his hand to me and I took it with a puzzled expression.“Where are we going?” I asked. “You’re going to join them in the hideout closest to us. I’m sending you with a couple of warriors so don’t be scared.”“Oh.” I swallowed. Unlike him, I was already scared, terrified out of my mind. “You’re crushing my hand,” he muttered and I got back to my senses. “Sorry,” I muttered with a blush. “I’m just a bit nervous.” As if my body wanted to show just how nervous, flames rose on my hand and then flickered out. “This happens when I’m nervous.” I giggled in a high-pitched tone. “Don’t be nervous.” Cahir

“What the –“ I gasped as the place went up in flames. “He’s quite meticulous,” Cahir said with a laugh, starting up his car. He had a carefree expression on his face, not like someone who just heard his best friend betrayed him and his pack would soon be under siege from more traitors. “You’re taking this rather well,” I commented. “It’s a bit funny. I never thought Aristo would betray me so I’m pleasantly surprised.” He chuckled. “And Alpha Blood which will go to shit without me yet they want to go against me,” he snorted. “It’s a funny scenario.” No, it wasn’t but I didn’t say anything. I fell asleep sometime during the long ride back to the pack and woke up once to drink water, my throat parched and aching. When we got to the Alpha Castle, Cahir was bundling me into his arms when I woke up. “Sleep. I’ve got you.” I snuggled up into his chest and went back to sleep. I didn’t wake up till late afternoon the next day and it was Cahir that woke me up, “We have to find a time to t

“Cahir.” I touched his arm when he got closer, my lips trembling. He wouldn’t hurt me – I tried to convince myself of that but it didn’t stop my heart from shaking when he got closer with a weird look in his golden eyes. I wanted to look away but I forced myself to maintain eye contact. Beneath this wolf coated with blood and with feral eyes was my mate, the love of my life and the father of my child. “Cahir – do you –“ I wanted to ask if he recognized me but I couldn’t. What was I doing talking to a wolf that was stalking me? What was I doing reaching out to a feral wolf? But that feral wolf was my mate and I couldn’t let him go. Never. How many people had he killed for his fur to be coated in so much blood? What had he done before he entered this room? Could I still get my mate back from the abyss of bloodlust that seemed to have wrapped vice-like grips around him? The wolf got to me and buried its cold snot into my neck. I went as stiff as a board. There was no single scent of

*CAHIR*“I don’t feel good about this,” Perseus mumbled after we bid our mate goodbye. Not only did I not feel good about sending my mate away when I wanted to have her in my sight every second of every day, I actually felt terrible. …I hate you! Those words she screamed at me haunted me till now. I knew she didn’t mean them, that she had uttered them in the heat of the moment, feeling hurt and betrayed that I went behind her back to plan this after I promised to never hide things from her. I knew all this but the words still stung. ‘Cahir, are you sure this is the best choice?’ Perseus asked, a gloomy cloud hanging around him as our mate went away. ‘It would be unwise to keep her shackled to our side at this point.’ I mumbled. ‘Greyson will attack in a few days and it's best she isn’t caught in the crossfire because I selfishly held on to her.’ It would be good to get things done and over with as soon as possible so I could have a peaceful life with my mate and baby. I had to e

“You’re not going to get away with this,” I added to my vow.“That’s a bit cliché, don’t you think?” Aristo chuckled. “You don’t love me yet but you like me so I can make you love me.” He sounded so confident, so assured that I would come to love a person like him. I went over our past conversations to see if I had somehow led him on, if I’d ever behaved as if I saw him as more than a friend and my mate’s best friend. I knew I’d never flirted with him so I didn’t need to think hard. Then why was he so delusional? “I’ll dress her. Leave.” He barked at Sebastian. The other man looked at me for a brief second before he nodded and left the room. “So many disgusting men coveting what’s mine,” he hissed, shaking his head. It was easy to reconcile the present Aristo with the Aristo I knew. I thought it was difficult, felt it was difficult at first, but it actually wasn’t. He behaved the same but what I had chalked off as overt friendliness and disrespect that stemmed from his overfamiliar
