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
When The Alpha Falls He Falls Hard Chapter 63 - the destructive path
ArcherI came to school on Avery Friday just to hear the news spread that Alex had awoken from his coma. The halls were abuzz with excitement about his return and planning a big welcome back event. It made me want to vomit.Maria was there too, smiling again now that her dear friend was okay. I avoided her accusing glares, keeping my head down.In class, everyone babbled cheerfully about visiting Alex in the hospital, oblivious to my seething guilt. I should be rotting in jail, not strolling around free. Yet here I was, the invisible monster in their midst.My mother called, her usual platitudes now laced with relief. "See? All's well, no lasting harm done. We're in the clear." I remained silent, unable to shatter her desperate illusion. Nothing about this was right. But at least it was for my better good.I return home at least I know he is not dead. And I can feel a heavy wight raise off my shoulders. Freya was telling she'll leave because she finished her job.
