The next day was a very busy one as it was spent exposing most of the secrets about Lia and the things she had passed through while being held captive under Alpha Lance. She was more than a slave to him, or even worse. He used her like a laboratory experiment to achieve certain things he was after.Nobody knew what the specific things he wanted to do with her were, but it wasn't a good thing no matter what it was. We gave up trying to know what he might be using her for but we gave up, because we had other pressing issues to attend to before thinking about that. We had just received information that Alpha Lance had not been in the Pack the night we went to rescue my mate.And they said he was back, seeking revenge more than anything else. I couldn't have guessed any better. He was a violent man who always wanted blood to be shed, so I wasn't expecting anything less than that reaction when they said he had attended a bonding ceremony and that he would be back after he heard what we did
ALPHA ASHER’S POVThat was when I grew very concerned about her condition. The doctor had assured she would be OK and that she would heal faster once he applied medications on her, and that had been done last night.But with the look from the nurses and those who were on our way while rushing to the ICU, I knew something was definitely wrong. I did not stop to acknowledge the family that came to see me.They had informed me earlier that they were coming to join my Pack but this wasn't the time to stop and talk to anybody. I would be done for if anything happened to Lia, and I prayed that nothing had happened to her. She was the consolation I had left, and Ryan and his father would pay with their lives if her condition was life threatening.I was so worried that I couldn't think of anything else. I continued to pray fervently on our way, asking the Moon Goddess to help me overcome whatever it was. The best I could do for the family was to ask the Beta to take them where they would wait
ALPHA ASHER’S POV"I was just wondering if anything could be done about her condition. Is there anything that can help her recover from the chip thing after she must have been out of the hospital? I want to know if there is something that could be done to help her get back her wolf?" I asked, looking up at him, desperate for an answer, wishing as well that it would be a positive one.He nodded instantly, a knowing look flashing across his face."Of course Ryan, of course. We have taken the first step which is removing the chip from her body. In fact with this done, she has already started to regain her wolf. But it will take some time depending on what happens after she is back." My brows slanted inquisitively."What do you mean?" He responded almost immediately. "What I mean is that she has to be relieved of many duties. Anything that will put her into stress. Anything that will make her tipsy emotionally, anything that will cause her pain, make her cry, make her remember a bad memor
ALPHA ASHER’S POV.I sauntered down the arched hallway towards the ICU. She was still there, stock still while the heart rate sang above her head. Looking through the window, I wished she would be back. That was until someone rapped me in the arm. I turned around to see my Beta, William. He looked a little bit happy, as a smile spread across his lips."Any news" I asked him, not changing the stoic look on my face. I turned back towards the window and continued to watch Lia constantly, my eyes following each rise and fall of her chest.That was what gave me hope that she was OK and that she would come back to me. I bowed my head and a sigh escaped me. William was busy mumbling about something behind me but I hadn't listened the whole time he had been speaking."What did you say again?" I prodded, turning back towards him and shifting my attention from Lia who was on her bed. When i looked back at him hesitatingly, the smile smile his face was gone and staunch seriousness was there. I
ALPHA ASHER’S POVMy thoughts ran off into ten different directions the moment I tried to concentrate on something. It was only after I had resolved to repress every other thought except the one which was most important that I was able to concentrate on something.But I was gradually getting more weary because I hadn't grabbed any sleep considering the tremendous amount of work I did the previous night. Somehow I still found it hard to believe that by this time yesterday, I was still recovering from the injuries I had gotten when Alpha Lance and his son came back for Lia.I wondered if we were going to keep fighting for her, dragging her insistently like she was some tug of war game. My teeth cleaned with revenge as I still thought about what to do to them if they ever decided on going to war. They had no idea how enraged I was towards them. Perhaps they thought that they were the only angry ones. I was very sure I had no idea how angry I was because of what Lia had passed through,
ALPHA ASHER’S POVWilliam came along to help out with the process, and I was pleased. The whole Pack was very active as we saw, everyone was busy with one thing or the other and since the day was gradually drawing to a close, the Pack hummed with activities. The both of us walked to my garage since I wanted to take my car so I could hasten things up. That's when he brought up a question. "Tell me, Asher, are you going to let them go when you're done with them and you end up discovering they're not guilty?" His question stirred something inside of, making my chest rumble as I growled. He understood his mistake immediately and apologised. "I didn't mean it that way, perhaps we have been so tight and you should trust me" he said, eyeing me as we walked down the quiet, reverberating passageway. I didn't respond until we got into the car. We got in, shut the door and started the car as the garage door lifted. I couldn't answer him from the outside, because there was every chance that som
ALPHA ASHER’S POVAt this point I no longer cared if the trespassers were innocent or not, anyone who dared to cross my Pack at the moment had chosen death, and I would give it to them. At the end of the system there would be no cause for regrets because I had been triggered and I was doing everything to make sure that my Pack was safe from every kind of external attack. We had to make sure that everyone was OK and that they could be assured of their safety.That was why nobody was to be found leaving the Pack or coming into the Pack. And the fact that Edward had decided to leave the Pack for god knows where, with a fake signature he lied to the guards that it was mine, it just meant that he had chosen death, and I would gladly give it to him since that was what he wanted. Maybe he would be an example to others who would ever dare to disobey me within this period.Everyone needed to be on alert but some people were just making things difficult unnecessarily, and I would make sure they
Taking a seat in the makeshift car, I pondered about the happenings of the day. Lately I had been very worried about Lia's health and prayed that she would just get back to her feet immediately. There were a lot of sh*t we needed to sort out quickly and one of them was marking her, mating her and bringing back the Luna in her.The wolf and the Luna in her had been greatly affected by Alpha Lance's monstrous project that was only tailored towards making her life very useless and changing everything that the Moon Goddess had already gifted her. I wondered why they couldn't have tried it on their corrupt and wicked kind, but on an innocent Omega who had nothing to them.Perhaps she would also have some good information to share concerning how they fought. That would go a long way to help but I doubted that she knew anything about how they fought. I doubted that she was even let into their room sometimes, so the impression that she might be very familiar with their fighting style was just
