All Chapters of Marked by the Alpha’s Enemy: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Alisha:Sebastian!His eyes were devilish, filled with maliciousness as he tugged the bundle from my arms, shoving me to the ground.“My children,” i wept as Sebastian held them in his arms, his green eyes glinting as he regarded me.Then all of a sudden I felt a sharp pain in my belly and looked down.Blood, I managed to process.I was bleeding to death.I woke up gasping for breath at the crack of dawn, having slept for barely half the night.My heart was pounding and the dream stayed in the forefront of my mind as I moved on autopilot, shaking as I got ready for the day, barely paying attention to anything and anyone.I don’t know how I managed to reach the pack clinic then, but I entered and began to call his name out desperately, looking around for any hints of the pack doctor.Eventually I heard footsteps behind me and turned around as he emerged from the stairs, looking like he had just finished getting dressed.“Alisha? It’s quite early,” he remarked. “What-?”“Simon,” I sobbe

Alisha’s POV:I smiled wanly at the woman who thanked me profusely, leading her child gently away. He had come in along with two other young pups with broken arms. Apparently they had been playing rough as children were wont to do. I enjoyed this part of working in the clinic - seeing grateful patients leave feeling a lot better made me filled with accomplishment and satisfaction after working.However the satisfaction and accomplishment didn’t happen this time. Instead all I could do was let out a weary sigh and return to jotting down the appointment dates.I knew what I was doing - I was using work as a crutch for the problems in my life. The issues I had wouldn’t go away. So far I had been able to manage and hide the effects of my many nightmares from Derek and Melissa. Derek had been busy these days with a lot of pack duties so it wasn’t hard. Melissa had been the hardest to convince and I had heard from Simon that she had asked numerous questions of him about my well-being.Day a

Alisha:I couldn’t take the nightmares as well as I thought I would. I was such a weakling, I thought helplessly. I pressed my nose intonDerek’s body to inhale his scent, knowing it would calm me down. I had to take in deep breaths, and the scent of sandalwood and other mixed scents that made me feel a lot better enveloped me.“Are you feeling better now?” I heard him ask and i loosened my grip on him, nodding, my cheeks burning so much.I could feel his eyes on me, as I cleared my throat.“I’m okay,” my voice was hoarse, and I knew I had to have been quite loud if he had heard me and come to wake me up. “I… I’m sorry,” i apologized without thinking.“You have nothing to apologize for, love?” He sighed, as if I had troubled him again. “Do tou want to talk about it? Your nightmare?”His question posed to me sounded innocent enough. Yet I faltered; his voice couldn’t hide the curiosity he felt, and that scared me. I wasn’t yet ready to tell him the truth about who I was dreaming about

AlishaI paced up and down the length of my bedroom. This morning Simon had sent me home as soon as I got there, because Derek had sent word to him.Silver Moon Pack warriors were at the border.I shuddered, wondering why I felt so uneasy at the thought. I had not done anything wrong, right? So why did I feel so upset?“Oh goddess,” I prayed aloud, clasping both of my palms together. “Please let this not be a bad thing. I don’t want to lose Derek.”Still the feeling persisted and by the time I heard a knock on my door I was beside myself with worry.“Who is it?” I called out only for the door to open and I saw a warrior I didn’t recognize.“Miss, the Alpha calls you to the border,” the warrior greeted me with a short bow and relayed his message.What?What did Derek want me to do at the border?My brows were furrowed as I nodded and followed the warrior out of the room, unable to figure out what exactly was the matter. Was I walking into a trap?Had I done something wrong?I waddled do

Alisha:I opened my eyes to find myself in a strange bedroom. The painful memories flooded my mind and I sat up immediately, quaking upon seeing the bars on the windows. I looked down at myself; I was only in my underwear.Who had undressed me? What had happened?I didn’t know, but one thing was certain.I was back in the Silver Moon Pack. This was a nightmare, one that I hoped would never come to pass. Yet here was I living it in reality.Just as I processed that, the door opened and a maid walked in, bearing a tray of food.She walked towards the table and dropped it, before turning to me and silently gesturing.“Please,” my voice was steadier than I expected. “Can you help me? I need to leave this place. I… I can’t stay here.”The maid looked saddened for a moment before then shaking her head. Then, she opened her mouth.My eyes widened; she had no tongue.Just that action of hers left me shaken and she gestured again, closing her mouth and pointing to the tray, trying to convince
