All Chapters of Alpha's Healer: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

AdamAll the pack members have gathered to pay their respects to their Alpha. I stand next to my father's coffin waiting for everyone to say their goodbyes. Alyssa is next to me, my mother on the other side. There are so many people here. Alpha Trey was loved by all of us; it's hard to believe he's gone. My mother grips my hand tightly; she's crying quietly, but not letting go of my hand, which is a comfort to me in a way I don't understand."Thank you all for coming here today," I say in a low voice so only those gathered can hear it "My father was a strong leader for us all for many years." Everyone nods their heads but no one speaks, so I continue "He worked endlessly protecting those who could not defend themselves." We've been hearing stories about what he's done for years now but never really talked about it much in front of the pack members; we've never celebrated what he did for us but merely mourned his loss when it happened." There is a moment of silence in the room before I

Alyssa"Let me go, damn you," I scream, pulling on the chains to break free.He chuckles evilly looking down at me. "If I wanted to kill you right now, you wouldn't have a chance to run away," he says."Oh really?" I snarl. "Why don't you just do it? You can't, can you? You don't even have the guts to show your face.""How dare you speak to me like that!" He roars throwing himself on top of me. His hands grip my throat choking me. Tears stream down my cheeks as I try desperately to pull myself out of his grasp. He pulls tighter until my vision blurs. I feel like I'm going to die. But then he releases me suddenly standing up straight."Do you know where you are?" he asks calmly.I shake my head unable to form words. All I can focus on is the pain radiating through my neck and shoulders from his chokehold. "Please, let me go.""Not yet," he snaps. He removes his mask, showing his face to me."Who are you," I whisper.He smirks, running his hand over his black beard stubble. "My name is

Alyssa"Get me out of here," I shout, hitting the door with my hands. "Open up! Please just fucking open the damn door!"How could this happen to me? How did he find me? Why would they hurt me? I thought I was safe here. I didn't think anyone knew who I really am."Please…" I beg."Calm down, little one," Tobias says as he opens the door. His eyes glow red when he looks at me. Why are you fighting it? you're home now. Adam doesn't love you and he never did. You belong with me and the Moon Creek pack now.My heart sinks hearing him say those words. Tears fill my eyes, and I sob uncontrollably falling to the floor crying. Tobias picks me up cradling me in his arms. I push him away and try to run past him."No," he scolds. "Not until you calm yourself.""Why do you want me so much? What does it matter what happens to me?" I cry.Tobias turns around walking towards the bedroom. He sits down on the bed next to me."Because you are mine and always have been since the moment I laid eyes upon

Alyssa Tobias is such a jerk. He wouldn't dare touch me. I mean, look how much pain he's caused me already. My body aches constantly. And I feel like crap all day long. I haven't eaten since yesterday and am starving. I wish I had more energy, though. I'd never accept him as my mate. He repulses me. Why couldn't I have met someone nice instead? Someone who cared about me and didn't use me for his gain. I close my eyes and picture the man I love. His strong jawline, those piercing blue-green eyes, and his shiny hair. I never realized how much I care for Adam. It was always easy to pretend that he wasn't important to me. But now that I don't have him anymore… I miss him terribly. The thought of losing him forever causes tears to well up inside me. Tears I refuse to shed. I may hurt physically, but emotionally I'm stronger than ever. I won't cry. "Hello again, little one," Tobias says as he pushes the door open. I stare straight ahead. "Go away." "If you continue to ignore me, I'll g

Alyssa The beast within me stirs, restless, testing the fragile barrier of my humanity. Its presence has been growing by the day, seeping into my consciousness in flickers and dreams. I wake with the musky scent of the forest in my nose, the metallic tang of blood on my tongue. The elders have warned me to gain control. If I cannot rein in this power, it will consume me whole. But how can I leash something I do not understand? I am walking a knife's edge in the dark, claws grasping for purchase, waiting for the fall. Dawn breaks cold and sharp over the compound, bathing weathered cabins in a glow of gold. I fold my arms across my chest as I step outside, breath frosting the air. The pack is already awake and active, voices rough with laughter and life. My heart swells at the sound of them - my unlikely family. I do not know what I would become without their guidance to ground me. A familiar figure separates from the crowd and lopes towards me, raven hair falling carelessly over hi
