All Chapters of A Healer For The Alpha: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

I walk out of the kitchen to begin my role as a waiter and for the rest of the night, I can't stop looking at Rio. Sure, Mitch is right, he's a little grumpy with the customers, he hates being asked for things even though that's literally his job and he rolls his eyes more than he should, but that doesn't take away from the fact that he looks innocent and incapable of doing anything wrong, ever. I still think he's just a spoiled, sheltered kid. How the fuck could he have killed an omega if he was so gentle with Leah? He hardly even wanted to touch her. I was the one who pushed him to do it. At no point in the interaction did he show any signs of being a freak. And yes, maybe his wolf could be the one with the murder problem, but I just don't think so. I decide to let that whole thing go and I just focus on waitering. I think Alana will be happy once she comes back and sees that her restaurant is back in full effect, a people’s favorite. And I’ll be happy to get some free time agai

"Hey... I'm actually Rio, dude," I try to lie as a last resort, but if there's one person who knows me inside and out, up close and personal, it's Jason. His eyes narrow immediately, not believing me. I shoot a quick glance at the two guys next to me, but they’re still not paying any attention to us, "What are you doing here?""I asked that first. And this is not the time to catch up," he blurts out and moves with sharp movements to grab a clean towel. My hair is still full of shampoo, so I lift my hands to wash it off as quickly as possible while Jason watches the two guys like a hawk as if they’re a threat to me or something, waiting for me to finish with the towel outstretched.As soon as I turn off the faucet, he tries to reach over to wrap me in the towel like I'm a damn kid, but I push him away before he can. "Let me get dressed and then we can talk," I say. Jason nods, but he still acts like my fucking bodyguard while I get dressed, so I get annoyed. Why is everyone so fucking

{ Alejandro }"Are you okay, Rio?" Zach asks me as I enter the restaurant, snapping me out of my tumultuous thoughts. There aren't any customers at the moment, thankfully."Oh, yeah," I reply, walking towards the stairs, "I'm going to change into my uniform, I'll be right back."Zach nods so I just go upstairs, just now realizing I left my damn backpack in the locker with my cell phone in there. I shake my head and run to my room to put on my uniform, but once I'm dressed I have to take a second to just sit in my bed, take a deep breath and think about how I probably fucked everything up by letting Jason touch me again. Someone besides Zee could have seen us and started rumors that would ruin my reputation. Letting him touch me was a damn bad idea. Besides, I forgot that I hate him for breaking up with me and then wanting to get me back only when it was convenient for him. But... that's not even what's making the most noise in my head, not even close. Not even how Zee pressured me

{ Zion }Fuck, I think it's back. That heavenly scent is back. A little bit. It's very faint, but I think I can smell it and it's driving me crazy.Or maybe it's because I'm so drunk? God, I don't know, but I'm scenting the fuck out of Leah in like I'm going to die if I don't and my hands are moving all over her body... and consequently, Rio's body behind her.I don't know what's going on with me or why I want the things I want, but right now I'm not interested in looking for answers, I just want to feel. So, I dare to touch Rio as well.I can feel him tense up as my hands start to touch him but I don't let that stop me. I wrap my hands around his waist and move my hands all over him, up and down his arms and his back, crushing Leah between us in the process. I think I can smell more of that scent now and I really feel myself losing my mind more and more. "Can I kiss her, Rio?" I ask, my mouth moving closer to Leah's, my hands finding the inside of his shirt and touching the silky

The conversation eventually moves away from Rio and his neck, but keeps staring down awkwardly. "Can we talk in private?” Leah asks Rio in a low voice and grabs his hand to pull him before he even responds. I keep my eyes on them until they disappear down the hallway to the bedrooms. About half an hour later, Rio and Leah return. Leah is holding Rio's hand really tightly and they walk until they get to me and Jess. Leah gives me a long look and a slow knowing smile, as if she knows something I don't. She's someone else to add to the list of people who know something I don't, I guess."Jess, it's really late. Shall we go?""Oh? but," Jess looks at me, "Can't I stay over tonight?"I'm totally not in the mood to keep entertaining Jess and her inscessant need to be all over me every second one way or another."Sorry, my love, but I have to wake up really early tomorrow and deal with some restaurant shit," I lie with a tired sigh and a grimace to give my lie more realism. Jess frowns, b
