All Chapters of The Alpha’s Awakening: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Alpha Elijah’s POVI hated what I was seeing, the way she was curled up in his arms, the way her lips were locked onto his wrist as she fed but I knew that right now, he was the only one that could help her. My blood was not enough, me holding her wouldn’t have been enough. She may hate him, but Ryan was saving her.I didn’t disagree when Ryan said he was taking her home. It wasn’t safe for Aria here and I had no idea what was about to happen. All I know is that Alwin would pay for this. I would make sure of that.My pack doctor links me to tell me that he has Aria. At least Ryan had kept to what I had asked him. She was in my pack and hopefully that would be enough to keep her safe.“What do you want us to do Alpha?” Simon glances from where Aria had been laid to look at me. He was calling me Alpha. That wasn’t a good sign. He was afraid of something, it wasn’t like him. Simon was so confident but we were about to fight the unknown.Chepi just looks at me with wide eyes. She had bee

Ryan’s POVIt had been almost a week since bringing Aria back but I knew time worked differently there. It most likely wouldn’t even be half a day there and I hope Elijah had put Alwin in his place, or whatever he was planning. Maybe he would have killed him, it was the least he could do!Aria hadn’t moved, well, apart from the nurses moving her to check and redress her wounds. They were sort of healing but not enough to know that she was cured. The doctor had managed to get more blood from the human hospital and I hadn’t asked how. It wasn’t something that I was overly concerned about, as long as he was able to able. Aria was my priority and she always would be from now on.The nurse comes in to change the blood bag and she shoots a smile in my direction.“I’m sorry there has been no change. We are doing what we can!” She rubs my back, like she was reassuring a child.“I know.” I move away and sit down, I wasn’t interested in conversation either. I just wanted Aria to be better. To k

Ryan’s POVThis was something different. Feeling the same thing that she was feeling, I just knew that we were supposed to be together. Watching her go through it was heartbreaking. Her body jerked around no matter how we tried to hold her down.Her eyes rolled back in her head at one point, the pain that was radiating through her should not be happening. When the nurse calls out that it’s her body trying to reject the poison. I knew I hate to fight everything that I was feeling. More nurses come in but with blocks of ice wrapped in cloth. Her body was burning up, like her skin was actually on fire. She slowly turns from white to red as the heat takes over her body but this wasn’t heat from mating, this was the work of the Fae poison.“You have to do something!” I yell over the screams coming from Aria as we try to hold her down.“There is nothing we can do. This is all on her. Her body will either make it or give up.” The doctor shouts back.Aria’s fangs are still down, her fingers

Aria’s POVI had to pretend. I had to make sure she thought I was out of it as she pinned herself down on top of me, trapping me beneath her. But tearing her throat out? I had acted without thinking about it. My body moving on its own. Like a fight or flight situation.Her body slides off me, her hand clamped to her neck as life faded from her eyes. Her body hits the floor with a heavy thud as I spit out her blood.“You killed her!” Elijah mutters as he checks Seren for a pulse. There wasn’t any point in him trying but he did anyway.“I beat her to it.” I mutter as I sit myself up. Seren’s blood was all over me and I quickly pull the blood soaked clothes off.“You killed your sister.” Elijah is watching me as I pull on fresh clothes.“She was going to kill me and like she has always said. I am not her sister.” I hated the sound of my casual and calm voice but it was true, it was either me or her and I chose me!Something in me had changed. I could feel it. There was no longer a desire

Alpha Elijah’s POV“You think you know where she is?” I ask Ryan as we make our way through the forest.“I don’t think, I know!” I snap back at him.“Did you mark her? Is that how you know?” If he had, I would be ready to kill him.“No.”Could I trust that he was telling me the truth? He had no reason to lie to me and we were both searching for the same person. Though this was my forest and I knew it like the back of my hand. It still felt like I was the one kept in the dark.“Where is she going?” I was hating the fact that I was having to rely on him. I couldn’t sense her in the same way that Ryan was describing. It was like I had marked her for no reason at all.“Home!”“This is her home!” I was growing more and more agitated as we moved, his short answers were the last thing that I needed.“No, there is only one place that she has ever called home.”I could already tell we were heading towards the river. The gushing of the water as it hit the surrounding rocks brought back memories
