When The Alpha Falls He Falls Hard Chapter 54- a price to pay
Alpha Warren Lucas"Arrrgh" I yelp, tired of the heap of work in front of me.It is another long day of monotonous pack affairs was finally drawing to a close. And I'm having a bad migraine.As alpha, power and luxury were mine. Yet sometimes I yearned for a more visceral thrill to break up the tedious routine. Right on cue, my newest concubine Nala slinked into my private study. "Great work My Alpha." She called in a tempting manner. With her voluptuous curves barely concealed by a scrap of sheer fabric, her intentions were clear. "Ahh." I groan as my eyes scan her from head to toe."You work too hard, my alpha," she purred, boldly climbing into my lap. "Let me relieve some of that tension..."I grinned wolfishly, all too willing to indulge in this diversion. As Nala trailed seductive kisses down my neck, I pulled her closer, relishing her soft whimpers of desire. Just as my roving hands began to wander, the doors banged open. I cursed under my breath as Nala leapt away. My inter
When The Alpha Falls He Falls Hard Chapter 55 - a sad realization
KeeganAfter another tense confrontation between Lucas and Mara over her reckless son, I retreated to my own chambers, exhausted. But sleep eluded me as my sister's words echoed in my mind..."You must tell Lucas the truth, brother! Keeping Heather's secret will only endanger us all."I had pleaded with her to be patient. "The time is not right. His temper remains volatile where she is concerned."My sister had refused to budge. "Fifteen years is long enough! What are you afraid of?"I could not meet her accusing eyes, ashamed of my own cowardice. She was right - Lucas deserved to know that his long lost mate had returned to our territory. That I had reunited mother and child in secret.But I could not forget Lucas's cold rage all those years ago when Heather disappeared. His vicious threats once he discovered her missing from the compound I was guarding. Threats he would have enacted if not for his ailing grandmother's intervention...So I had helped Heather escape into the night, ai

MariaA nurse wake me up from my little slumber."Young lady, you can enter and the the patient now." The nurse informed.I burst into Alex's hospital room, my eyes swollen from weeping. One look at Alex's mother stricken face told me she knew - this attack was meant for me, not her innocent son. The nurse informed her. I didn't blame her every mother is protective of her son.Seeing Alex lying there so pale and lifeless, guilt threatened to swallow me whole. My best friend could die because of my weakness. The blood staining his bandages may as well have been on my hands.I tried to explain to her through heaving sobs. "It was Archer...he came for me but Alex jumped in the way..." She stared at me with such grief it was unbearable. I wanted her to scream at me, punish me for destroying her only child. Instead she pulled me close as we both shook with anguished cries."Shh darling, just breathe," she whispered, stroking my hair. I didn't deserve her empathy when this was all my fault

Maria The next day, I was in my room locked up as he says. Curled in a ball on the bed, sobs wracked my body. My best friend could die and it was all my fault. I should have been the one stabbed, not innocent Alex. He didn't deserve this pain. I promise to go after she was asleep at night.After night fell, I crept downstairs while my father snored drunkenly. Slipping out the back door, I ran to the hospital. I had to see Alex again, even if he'd never forgive me for what happened.I crept back into Alex's hospital room late at night, needing to be near him. His mother sat keeping watch, her kind eyes full of sympathy as she took in my bruised and battered face."Oh sweetie, what happened?" she asked gently, guiding me to sit as I winced in pain.I stared at the floor, ashamed. "My father...he was angry about yesterday." His mother tilted my chin up, her expression lined with sorrow. "You dear girl, you don't deserve this cruelty." Her empathy made my tears spill over.Haltingly I e

HeatherI was waiting on the sidewalk for Ian to put some fruit he insisted saying I was pale and need more vitamins. I smiled as his romantic nature. Making me blush. I was grateful for him being here with me.Just then, I felt an iron grip on my arm. Before I could react, I was yanked forcefully into a nearby alley. Immediately she yanked me and knocked my head."Don't make a sound," a gruff female voice warned, shoving me into the back of a nondescript van. My heart hammered with fear as I realized I'd been kidnapped. The muscular woman scrutinized me coldly as the van sped off. "Ms. Heather, I presume? My employer sends her regards." Her tone sent chills down my spine."What do you want from me?" I asked shakily. "Please, I just want to get back to my son..." I pleaded, no matter what I wanted to be by his side right now.The woman cut me off. "There's been enough trouble already. Take this compensation and we needn't speak of this incident again." She shoved an envelope of cash
When The Alpha Falls He Falls Hard Chapter 60 - better days
HeatherIn the midst of everything, it warmed my heart to see a steady stream of Alex's classmates visiting him at the hospital. They came bring him different gifts, some bring fruits, snacks, silly cards covered in inside jokes and well wishes. It was clear these kids cared deeply about my boy. Their bright spirits lifted the gloomy atmosphere for a while when they crowded around his bed chatting and joking as if he might open his eyes and join in at any moment."Mrs Heather, we all miss Alex, and we're all signing this big banner for when Alex wakes up," a curly-haired girl told me excitedly. "That way he'll see how much we miss him right away."I smiled gratefully, touched by their gesture. "I'm sure he'll love that. Thank you all for being such good friends to him." I appreciated, smiling at her. "Even Tony, the sullen loner who rarely spoke about how he miss him in class," another uttered. "He mumbled that it wasn't the same without Alex there to tell stupid jokes and beat ever

Heather After Alex's uplifting visit from his school friends, a heavy silence descended on the room again. I sat holding his limp hand, my fingers drifted to the pendant hanging around my neck - the sealed gem that kept my wolf sealed. Lately I'd felt the her stirrings growing stronger, reacting to the distress of my cub being harmed. The wolf wanted to burst free and protect him, consequences be damned.But unleashing that side again after all these years carried immense risk. I'd run away from the pack and being rejected and accused it was the best I can do so I promise to start over. And leave that life for behind and with good reason. Letting the wolf could destroy the life I'd built here with my fake human family.Still, with Alex hovering at death's door, the temptation gnawed at me constantly. I'd do anything to save my child, even unleash the beast within. Surely no one could fault that choice?Kate and Aria came to visit me, they kept a worried eye on me as I wrestled with

AlexIt was all black then I start to drifted back to wakefulness, gradually becoming aware of hushed voices and a warm hand clutching mine. With great effort, I pried my eyelids open, squinting against the bright hospital lights. "Alex! Oh thank god!" Mom's tearful voice exclaimed. She leaned over me, face etched with joy and relief. My mind was hazy, but her familiar presence gave me strength."You're awake! We've all been so worried," Aunt Kate added, squeezing my shoulder gently. I gave a weak smile, moved by their loving concern.All my senses sharpened, I noticed an absence of the excruciating pain that had consumed me before everything went dark. Somehow my injuries had completely healed. I felt disoriented but surprisingly strong.The doctors seemed baffled by my rapid recovery. But Mom just smiled knowingly through her tears. "You're a fighter, my angel," she whispered, caressing my face. "I never lost faith."Mom cradled my face in her hands, eyes glistening with joyful tea

And as he does so, he answers the question he literally forced me to ask while my moans and screams are confused with eachother. "No one else fucking wants you", his moves are so tight and almost forceful that I can't help but wonder how in the world he still has all that stamina. "It hurts", I moan as I try to reach for his waist and push again, but he slaps my hands away and grabs my boobs. "Didn't you want it hard? I'm doing just that, or do you want me to leave? Did you have a change of mind?" His fingers are giving my nipples the tightest pinch they've ever gotten and his palms remain firmly pressed on my breasts. "You'll barely be able to walk when I'm done", he pauses as I start to feel his manhood harden and pulsate inside of me. Dripping hot precum also starts to coat my inside and mix with my wetness as he continues his movement. "And you know what will happen when I'm done?", through my glassy eyes, I notice the smirk on his face, "I'll take you again and again a
When The Alpha Falls He Falls Hard Chapter 97 - the end
Heather With Mara gone, the estate felt peace and calm, like the storm had passed. Some funny thing is no one grieved over Mara's death, even though she was once the Luna. Even her son, Archer. Lucas never loved her in the first place. He softened to me and more wary of letting fear rule him. Our bond emerged stronger for enduring the trial. Together Lucas and I slowly mended torn relationships throughout the pack, reassuring all of our peaceful intentions. Keegan’s wisdom and discretion proved invaluable in maintaining stability through the transition. And Alex’s calm strength gave me courage when threats of fresh dissent arose. He would make a fine leader someday, if we could break the bleak cycle of suspicion and isolation. Archer remained more inscrutable, keeping his own counsel for a time. But Alex's tireless faith seemed to gently erode his walls. And seeing Lucas choose unity over vengeance clearly gave him much to ponder internally. I hoped in time the seeds of healing
When The Alpha Falls He Falls Hard Chapter 96 - a painful realization
Archer's POV The commotion in the hallway drew everyone's alarmed attention from the dinner table. Shouts echoed, then Keegan appeared supporting mother's distressingly still form. Dark blood stained her robes and face."What has happened?" Father demanded, rushing over with the others. But none needed ask as the gruesome truth became painfully clear. Mother had taken her own life, reasons unknown. An icy void opened within me. I know why. She chooses this for herself.In the chaotic hours that followed, I retreated numbly to the solitude of the grounds, tormented by guilt and questions. What had driven the proud Alpha female to such an extreme end? She had appeared the very picture of health mere hours before at dinner. Nothing made sense.Over the next harrowing days, the murky circumstances came to light under Keegan's discretionary investigation. Among mother's things he uncovered incriminating letters - one for father pleading again to cast out Heather before she destroyed him.
When The Alpha Falls He Falls Hard Chapter 95- ugly poisoning
MaraBitterness churned within me as Lucas welcomed Heather back so readily after all the grief her disappearance caused. She had stolen his affections from me long ago with her bewitching powers, and now the spell was cast anew despite my warnings. Lucas was blind in his obsession once more.I would not let her destroy my son again. Since reasoned arguments proved futile, more duplicitous means were required. I slipped tiny portions of monkshood tincture each day into Heather's wine at dinner, under guise of graceful hospitality. Just enough to make her sickly, not draw suspicion. Soon parallel symptoms began appearing in my soft-headed son as well - fatigue, headaches, fits of anger. But it was necessary collateral damage to free him from her toxins. Once weaned off her presence, Lucas would regain his senses. I remained vigilant for any opportunity to administer larger, more disfiguring doses when the time was right.But fate conspired against me when Archer noticed his ailing fat

LucasThe long road of recovery thereafter was its own grueling nightmare. My own weakness disgusted me. But Heather and Alex stayed steadfast through every faltering step, humiliation, and defeated curse. Their faith fueled me like oxygen to resume the fight each day. Leaving the bleak hospital at last to continue healing surrounded by family brought profound peace. Despite my grandmother's lingering wariness, she and Mara welcomed Heather back graciously. The circle had held through our darkest hour.My body gradually mended, though the leg brace and cane still left me reliant on others' assistance shamefully often. But Heather never allowed me to slip into despair, staying bright and gently scolding when I cursed my feeble condition too harshly. Her inner light sustained me, even through my blackest moods.Alex too helped ease the restlessness, smiling encouragement through each halting mile walked together around the grounds. In his eyes I glimpsed again the heroic father I had p

Heather Everything happened so fast - the gun, Lucas diving to shield me, the deafening crack of the shot. Then Lucas crumpling heavily to the floor amidst the chaos, dark red blooming across his chest. The scream trapped in my throat escaped as a shattered gasp. I rushed to Lucas's side with Alex, pressing my hands desperately against the gushing wound. Lucas's face had gone pale and slack, barely conscious. "No no no, stay with me!" I begged him. Our surroundings faded away, Ian's deranged shouting, the sirens outside, everything but Lucas's dimming eyes locked on mine. "Heather...forgive me..." he rasped faintly, each word clearly agonizing. His hand found mine, grip feeble. "Tell...Alex..." "Shhh don't speak, save your strength!" I pleaded, tears blurring my vision. But his eyes slid closed, body going limp. "Lucas! Lucas please!" My broken sobs echoed in the sudden quiet.Everything after became a hellish blur - police and paramedics storming in, Ian screaming threats and cu

LucasRage boiled through my veins as Richard tried to hit their car. I watched Keegan speed off with Heather. And I feel at ease. That damned snake Richard had nearly killed her! If I had arrived seconds later...I cut off the chilling thought, forcing icy composure over the maelstrom inside me. Now was not the time for blind fury. Richard remained barely conscious at my feet, helpless prey awaiting judgment. I could make his death agonizingly slow, wring every scream from his worthless hide... But no. That was the old madness. I would not sink to his level, however deserved such vengeance might be. Death would come by my hand swift and clean. The serpent had stolen too much time from me already.I hauled Richard up by his torn shirt, claws piercing through the thin fabric to dimple his skin. He peered at me with dazed yet defiant hatred. "You should have stayed dead, snake," I rumbled. My hand flexed, ready to shred his throat out in one vicious stroke. This would finally be fini

71 Heather's POV:My head spun as Keegan wove the disturbing tale of Ian's - no, Richard's - true identity and motives. The friend I had trusted so implicitly was merely using me as a pawn in some toxic feud with Lucas. And now he was regaining dangerous lucidity in the backseat, malice smoldering in his eyes."Just focus on the road ahead," I told Keegan, trying to ignore Richard's presence behind us. I clutched Alex's hand like a lifeline. We were so close now to real freedom. I refused to let Richard's poisonous schemes drag us back under. Not this time. Alex gave my hand a determined squeeze, meeting my gaze steadily despite the fear in his eyes. My brave boy. We would face whatever came next together. I offered him a reassuring smile before turning to Keegan."What's the plan once we get some distance?" I asked, keeping my tone low. Keegan's brow creased in focus as he navigated busy streets. "I have contacts out of state who can help get you set up with new identities and pap

Keegan Getting inside proved simple once Ian was safely unconscious - the wards recognized his signature and granted entrance readily. Moving cautiously, I followed the scent trails further inside until I located Heather and Alex in a barren side room. They both startled violently at my entrance with Ian's body slung over my shoulder."Keegan!" Heather gasped out, shock and alarm widening her eyes. "What are you doing here? What's wrong with Ian?" She started to rush over but I halted her with an upraised hand. "Please, I beg you to hear me out Heather. Ian is only sedated, so I could speak freely." I lowered Ian's limp form to the floor. "There are truths you need to understand before this goes any further."Alex moved in front of his mother protectively. "Truths? More like Lucas sent his lackey here to drag us back!" His young face hardened. "Well you can forget it, we're never going near him again."I held the boy's glare evenly. "I know you have no reason to trust me. But neithe
