All Chapters of Alpha Daryl : Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

“Drop it Daryl!” I mumble, turning myself over in the bed, which wasn’t easy with all the things attached to me.“You can’t hide it forever.” He mutters and I hear the door swing open.“How is she doing?”I was relieved to hear Tasha’s voice. If it hadn’t been for her then I probably would have never made it back.“Maybe you can talk some sense into her!”A few moments later the door swings shut, and Tasha moves around to stand in front of me. Her eyes had changed, they were an amber just like Lucian’s and mine.“You really scared us. I woke from Lucian changing me. You were out cold. They were both trying to shake you awake. Ashley, I have never seen men so scared in all my life. They really care about you.”She looks at me with her bright eyes.“I know we haven’t had chance to speak much…”“Thank you.” I mutter as I try to sit myself up.“For what?”“If you hadn’t come to me, if you hadn’t passed on information from Lucian. I would be dead.”Tasha chews on her bottom lip.“It’s more

“You really think it will be that easy?” I stare at Tasha, not quite believing what she was suggesting.“Look, I may be like one of you now, but there is still something that I was bred to be. A hunter. If there is anyone that can find her then it will be me!”“Why do you even want to do this?” It was funny looking into her newly turned amber eyes. Almost like they didn’t fit her.She shrugs her shoulders at me, turning her gaze towards Lucian who was standing with Daryl just outside the dungeons.“I feel his hate towards her. Since he gave me this.” She pulls the collar of her tshirt down, revealing a mark on her collarbone, just like the one Daryl gave to me.“It’s weird, as a human, I never understood it. All the research I did about the mate bond that you lot had, it just seemed like a weird fad but now, this.” She pats the mark.“I feel everything he feels, and he doesn’t even try to hide it from me. When you were in the hospital, his heart was close to breaking. Any mention of t

Over the next few days, I stuck to places where Daryl could either easily find me or the bedroom. There had still been no change between Daryl and I. I had tried but it was like my body was going against me in every way possible. I really liked Daryl, but I just couldn’t stand the thought of him touching me and I often found myself wondering if this was going to be my life now, because it wasn't his fault.Talk had spread among the pack of how it had been me that had killed Christian. Some of Daryl’s pack would look at me oddly, probably because of my small frame. Others were keen to speak to me. Hence me spending more and more time in the bedroom.Daryl had even brought a television to keep me entertained. I had tried to read in the library, but I just couldn’t concentrate properly. Mind numbingly boring tv seemed to work better.He had started checking in with me regularly, which was annoying at first but had become comforting by the third day. He had asked me each night if he could

There is a weird silence between us. We both wanted to say something and yet neither of us could find the words.He slowly sinks back into his chair, rubbing the stubble on his chin when he pulls a huge stack of files from the large drawer of his desk.“Since I first found you, I have searched for an answer to break the curse.” He gestures to the pile of papers in front of him.“You were never meant to come into my life. That was part of the curse. I never wanted a mate.”“You didn’t want me?”“That’s not what I am saying Ash! This curse, I agreed to it long before I found you. A curse that would forever keep me from my mate in return for me being a strong leader, an Alpha. It’s why you constantly have mixed emotions around me. Why you get annoyed by the simple things I ask of you. You were never meant to be with me, you were never meant to find me.”He was being serious. The speech sounded familiar too."You can't be serious Daryl. You were there that night. Riding your motorbike as

How could I even respond to his last comment, what was I supposed to say? It wasn’t like I could tell him that everything would be okay, he was dying because of me, because I was his curse.“How…?” Reaper asks quietly, she was in as much shock as I was.“When…”“Does it matter Ashley?”“When did you figure it out?” I needed to know how long he had known and why he hadn't told me.“A couple of months”“You didn’t say anything?!”He shakes his head at me, the tiredness shining through his bright blue eyes.“I couldn’t Ash. Do you know how hard it is, to be in love with someone that’s slowly killing you? To have found your mate when you were never supposed too?”“There has to be something that we can do. Daryl, you can’t leave me, not now!” I try to move closer, but he holds a hand up to me and asks me to stop. Was this my punishment for not letting him get close to me?“There is nothing Ashley. I’ve searched and searched for an answer. I know you have looked through the files, your scen
