Chapter 26: The Witch
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56When I come to, the first thing I hear is Eric's voice. Sounding irritable, he says, "Bring that over here. That way when she wakes up, she can be comfortable."
Opening my eyes, I glance up at Toby and William carrying a new four post bed made of mahogany wood, over to where the old one was. It even has a canopy, unlike the old one. Eric's voice thunders over the sound of everything else going on, "Not there, over there." He points in the other corner.
The minute Eric notices that I'm awake, he rushes over and asks, "Do you know what happened? I came back from the initiations and found you along the path to the house, unconscious. You slept through all the rest of the day and this morning. I even had doc come over and look at you."
Sitting up, I feel dizzy but nonetheless stay upright. Staring at him, I aswer, "No, I have no idea. I was walking along the path, when I sat down for a few mi

Horrified, I can't do anything but scream internally. Not wanting to be seen though, I stand still and when Eric recovers, he turns around. Our eyes meet and he growls. Annabelle trying to figure out what is going on, straightens and smiles as she sees what he is growling about.Once again the satisfaction on her face makes me feel sick and I now know that I have absolutely no more control. I take off down the trail, back to the pack house and run up to the bedroom. Crying, I don't know what I can do now.Before laying down, I lock the door and then throw myself on the bed. I must cry for hours, because the next time I hear someone it is dark outside. Picking my head up, I ask, "Who is it?""It's me." Eric says coldly. "Unlock the damn door."When I don't unlock it, he asks, "Why are you acting this way? You had to know that at some point I would find someone that I wanted

"Get off of her." Eric yells at the top of his lungs before throwing me clear across the room. Feeling pain shoot all throughout me, I watch as Eric hunches over Annabelle's lifeless body. His feet step in the blood pooling on the floor as he doesn't pay attention one bit to anything else around him. Watching as he sheds tears for her and throws his head back to howl, my wolf still fights to gain control again. Sitting in the corner, I am barely able to hold on. "Janessa, stares at the scene with a sick look on her face and then she walks into the kitchen. I on the other hand, find the strength to stand up and walk towards Eric. I touch his shoulder and try to comfort him, but he turns his head quickly and snaps at me, "Don't touch me. You will pay for this." Getting up, he grabs ahold of my arm and drags me out of the house. Alerting the security squad, he has me taken away to be dealt with later. They wa

"Pop" "Bang" "Crackle" Gazing at the beautiful sight in the open night sky, we all watch as the fireworks display sparkles against the stars. Eric picks me up and kisses me before everyone else sees and then when he places me back on my feet, he grabs my hand and leads me away. "I have something to tell you." He states with mischief in his eyes. Knowing better then to guess, I say, "What?" "Ryder is coming tomorrow." Wondering why he is making such a big deal about him coming, I ask, "Why are you so excited about it?" "Because, he has something for you. He told me about a week ago, that he saw something that reminded him of you on his travels and he wants to give it to you." "Oh." I look down and frown, because Ryder thinking about me isn't necessarily a good thing. "What's the matter my baby?" He takes my chin between his thumb and forefinger and pushes my head up to look me in t
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 30: The Heat Is On.
"Is she O.K.?" I hear a concerned male voice say before I open my eyes. Taking a minute because of this steady heavy pounding in my head, I slowly open my eyes and wish that I hadn't. The pounding suddenly gets twenty times worse and I feel like the very first time I turned into my wolf form, except for there isn't any good side to this. When I try to open my eyes again, I open them only a little so I see a slight bit of light. It seems to help my agonizing headache to an extent. Realizing that it was the doctor's voice, I gradually open them more till I can see where I am and who is next to me. I turn to my left side where Eric is standing and look down to see that Ryder is nowhere to be found. So I ask, "Did you kill him?" He lowers his head, so he can whisper in my ear, "No, but I should have killed both of you. I know something happened between the two of you while he was protecting you. When you
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 31: After
"Look out!" I shriek, before the rogue closes in on us."Stop right now." Eric commands the rogue right in front of him and slices clear through his shoulder.Hearing bones breaking, I instantly know that he has just ended the rogue's life directly in front of him and is now working on another one. When I see the blood spraying all over the snow, I know that he is soon to be dead too. I on the other hand am in combat with a rogue twice my size and no matter what I do I can't hit him.Slashing him in the leg, I am a bit surprised that he doesn't even flinch when the blood starts to spurt from it. It's almost as if he feels no pain. Watching him, I wait for my next move to connect.Finally, I shred his abdomen and a shocked look registers the pain on his face. However, the next thing I know I am on the ground with blood in my mouth. When I see him, it's too late and he bites
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 32: Can Things Get Any Better?
I wake up in the doc's room with Eric holding my hand. Still not awake, I can tell that he is already going to wake up with a sore neck and wish that he had slept in the other bed last night. Carefully removing my hand from his, I try to get out of bed and discover that I am still in pain. My side feels like it has a couple stitches in it and when I pull up my shirt, I see why. On my side, there are stitches where a big gash about 3 inches long lay that had been ripped open. The incision looks really red and it begins to concern me before the doctor walks in. "Oh, yes. You are awake Raven. I am so glad you are, because I have to tell you something before Alpha Eric here wakes up." He says softly and extends a hand to help me out of bed. "Come with me, if you would." Watching him carefully, I wait for him to continue, curious of what he needs to tell me out of ear shot of Eric. Sitting down on the couch out
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 33: Lady Liza
“No!” The very first thing Eric does before he leaves the doctor’s office, is to cry out. We have been through so much and now that he was promised his heirs, I can tell it is crushing him to know that there is a problem with them. If he only knew the real issue, he wouldn’t be so heart broken. Instead, he would probably rip my head off. He talks to the doctor further before we walk back to the pack house and then to our bedroom, because the doctor told us that we will have to find her before it is too late. In another month if we don’t do something, he probably will have to terminate. Knowing Eric, that is not even an option and then he will find out the truth and my pups will be dead anyways. Eric will never let Ryder’s pups come to pass, because that means he would let an heir from another alpha possibly take over after him. Impossible, he will say and that is what I am afraid of. Losing them now would ruin me, but
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 34: Does She Fix It All?
“Not now, what are you doing?” I hear Eric screaming at someone in the next room before I open my eyes. Slowly opening them, they hurt from crying all night and feel puffy. I run my fingers over my lids, and they feel oversized. “Great! Not only do I have to worry about being beheaded but dying while looking like I am having an allergic reaction.” I murmur under my breath and pray that Eric doesn’t hear me. I hear a door slam before I get off the bed and then Eric slams our bedroom door open with so much gusto that it almost knocks the door off its hinges. Looking up at him, I ask cautiously, “Is there something wrong?” I decide to pretend that I am innocent and have no idea why he is upset. He furrows his brow before looking straight at me and demanding, “Get out of bed, you know full well why I am mad.” Curious, I continue the conversation. I figure if I am to die today, I might as well get a rile out

Sitting there for the longest time, I have yet to figure out exactly what to do. I put my face in my hands and start to sob, but then I stop and stand when my cheek starts to ache again. Touching it, I press in and hear something clicking. Walking over to the mirror, I stare at my reflection. A broken woman looks back at me. Someone who once was proud and stood tall, I am now shattered and a mere shadow of myself. Today, I thought it was the end for me and the scary fact is that I had come to terms with everything. I forgave everyone and yet there is something that still bothers me. Eric said that he hasn’t been the Alpha I need him to be. What he doesn’t realize is that I don’t need him as an alpha, just my mate. He is everything I need and more, but because he feels like he failed me he has become someone else, and I see it in his eyes. The disappointment and sadness, but mostly regret.

“Crash” The whole house shakes as the sound reverberates through out every room. From upstairs, I hear someone screaming and then as soon as I get my bearings, I rush down to find out what has happened. The next thing I know, my face is buried in the pillows on the couch and there is someone over me with his hand on my head, not letting me move. I hear a man speak in a low deliberate voice, “I presume that you are Raven the Luna of the Wild Fang Walkers and Alpha Eric’s mate.” Staring at me as he waits for my response, I say nothing. “Alright, so we know that you are one in the same and I have been sent here to take you back to my boss, the King pin of Avalon City. Apparently the two of you, have done quite a bit of damage to the syndicate and they don’t appreciate it. They have sat back long enough and tolerated your presence. So, from this moment on, the humans rule this planet, not your kind. By the way, has anyo
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 60: The Calm Before The Storm
It has been 2 years since the war with the humans. When Eric stomped them down, the mafia bosses seemed to not want any more to do with us. Just as long as we don’t leave our territory, and they don’t leave theirs we all get along. “Momma, momma.” “Momma.” Turning to Hope and Justin, I smile and then take one in each arm before standing up. Kissing them on the head, I remember when things weren’t going so well. My world is different now though, because everyone respects me and when I say something, there are no more doubts. Of course, Eric might have something to do with that. The moment someone even thinks about it, Eric rips their throats out and doesn’t give them a second chance, because he is a powerful adversary all on his own and with me by his side, we are unstoppable. Not to mention, now that the pups are growing big and strong, he would never let anything happen to them ever again. As I carry
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 59: A Rose By Any Other Name
As soon as word gets out that I am about to get out of the clinic, Eric comes rushing in with a dozen red roses and a huge smile on his handsome face. The last few days, he has been staying at the clinic, but this morning he ran off and I didn’t know why till now. I stare at him as he waits patiently for the doctor to walk in and check me over. Hearing the doctor from the other room, we both glance at each other and smile. The door opens and then the doctor peers in, checking to make sure he isn’t intruding before he enters the room. Eric immediately starts pacing because I can tell he can’t wait to get me out of here. After all, tonight is a full moon. Still holding the roses, he remembers that he is carrying them and leans forward so I can smell. So, I close my eyes and take a breath in through my nose. The scent fills me, and I make a “Mm” Sound. When the doctor walks over to me and listens to my heart, he gl
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 58: The Strange Disappearance
“Raven, do you know where Lizzy went? The pups are hungry, and she isn’t anywhere to be found. I don’t like the fact that people disappear far too frequently around here. We have to start doing something about it.” He stares at me with a frown before waiting for me to answer. “Well, I can take care of the pups food needs for the moment, but we have to find someone who will actually be here full time. I thought she was responsible enough, but maybe she found her mate and they have gone off somewhere to be alone. Who knows?” He nods and then leans down before giving me a kiss on the lips that feels more like he is thinking of something else. His eyes wander to the window before he walks off and disappears out the door. Staring after him, I put down my book and stand up to go to the kitchen, when I hear a strange noise in the bathroom. Cocking my head, I listen for a minute longer. Nothing, but the minute I s
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 57: Is It A Figment Of My Imagination?
“Bang” “Boom” My eyes hurt and feel puffy, but when I wake up it is pale in comparison to the sharp pain still in my shoulder. Now I am beginning to wonder if the blow to my skull hasn’t caused me to hallucinate, because I hear loud noises in the next room and Eric’s voice again. He is shouting out asking, “Where is she? I know you have her.” “Boom” “Crash” “Boom” Sitting there, I notice something after a little while. Everything grows quiet and right before Jeremy’s face peers through the door, I see someone sitting in the corner staring at me. It is a bit odd, but I dismiss it quickly as also part of my imagination till he turns the light on, and I see it is not. Jeremy walks in and then I see an older grey-haired man who looks to be almost 7 foot tall. His eyes are wide and a shade of blue that is so bright that it looks unreal. I can smell his cologne from a mile away and it makes m
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 56: It Was him
“I knew that Eric’s little bitch wasn’t very strong. I am frankly surprised that he chose you in the first place. He could have had any number of women. Matter of fact, even now after having human women, he still prefers you and I have no idea why.” Jeremy’s face is so close to me that I feel the spittle running down my face as he speaks vehemently towards me. As I feel someone yank me backwards and to my feet by my upper arms sharply, I wince in pain when I feel my shoulder dislocate. I hear a popping noise and then close my eyes in pain and agony. Writhing around, I grimace when he forces me to look at him. “Look at me bitch! You are a female dog after all.” He stares into my eyes as close as he possibly can before he snaps his teeth together, acting like he is going to bite my nose off. “I bite too you know?” He winks at me and then shows me his biggest Cheshire Cat smile. They yank me har
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 55: The Decision
“It’s not what it looks like. I promise.” Ryder turns around to face Eric and tries to explain. “Hmm. Let’s see. My mate is wet and naked, you are touching her chin and it looks like you just kissed her. Exactly what is it then?” I can already see the rage in Eric’s eyes from clear across the room. Ryder glances from me to Eric and then replies, “I walked in, because I saw you stomp off in a huff from your bedroom.” He sighs before continuing. “Wanting to make sure she was alright, I knocked and when she didn’t answer, I entered. When I did, she was in a horrible mess, ranting and raving about Jeremy so I threw her in the shower to cool off and get ahold of herself.” Walking closer to Eric now, he keeps an eye on him as he says, “This is just before you came in. When I shut off the shower, she walked out and then I was just about to ask her a question when you came through the door.” Eric sta
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 54: It Was Better When I didn't Know
I wake up groggy and look at the clock, it’s 4:15 but Eric is mumbling something in his sleep with his arm tight around my chest. Not being able to break free, I try to turn over at least but can’t. Instead, I end up staring at the ceiling and listening to every horrible word he says. “Jeremy, yyyou have to stop with the women. I can only take sooooo many.” He slurs and there are several moments when he just stops before finishing the sentence. Hearing him speak, makes me want to curl up and die because I realize that he is talking about yesterday. Lying there, I silently cry because I know what he has done is wrong. The problem is I have done the same thing before. Haven’t I? I know that it was not to the same extent, but the sheer fact is that I cheated on him and now he has gotten his revenge. Feeling him start to move, I try to wiggle from his grasp, but I don’t succeed. Instead, he m
