All Chapters of The Cruel Alpha's Unwanted Bride: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

{~~Avery Sterling~~}The teddy bears were adorable, and the one I’d picked out relaxed me. As I’d said, Logan bought me a few other things too. I’m pretty sure he’ll go back to not caring about me tomorrow morning, but he seemed sincerely sorry that he’d thrown something at me. I’m guessing he draws the line at physical abuse, but blackmail and sexually starving someone is okay in his books. As well as verbal abuse.Focus on the teddy. This polar bear is going to be my new friend. My own person since I have no one. I do have Aisha but if she ever visited me here she’d end up in prison for attempting to murder the pack’s medic alpha.I could speak to Ryan but I don’t think I ever want to discuss any of things unless I’m talking to a fucking therapist. My eyes shot a glance towards the window, and my jaw dropped. They still have it. The Fushi Festival. Fushi is still the pack mascot. It’s like a giant sushi roll. Our pack originally belonged to a clan of wolves from East Asia. But they

{~~Avery Sterling~~}I awoke feeling free and happy, I quickly shut those emotions down. It’s the next morning, who knows what horrors are waiting for me. If after telling Logan that his girlfriend played a role in someone’s suicide, and he’s still in love with her then I have no chance. His wound is still fresh, he needs some time. So right now, I have to just play it cool. I have so many Ava horror stories so the second he changes his mind I can tell him as much as I want.I saw my room littered with gifts and teddy bears. I won some of these like the stuffed bunny that is occupying one corner of my room. It’s like a cushion, how did it fit in the car? And I’m surprised that Logan didn’t burn them. He actually brought me to my room. He was nice last night, he reminded me too much of the version he’d been when we first met.I should thank him. I’ll shower, and make breakfast. I stepped into the bathroom and started my routine. I made sure to take my time with it. The sun wasn’t out y

{~~Logan Sterling~~}“- the point of the fundraiser is not to raise money for Heart Inc. We bring in a yearly quota that keeps us as the top hospital franchise in the world at the moment. No, it’s to raise money to spread awareness for certain illnesses affecting the several shifters.” the CMO droned on. This was a meeting for the board of directors. The only reason I’m here is because as medic alpha my opinion is very important and valuable to all of them.If not, they’d have excluded me like they did to the rest of the staff who will find out about the event through an emailed invitation.“The importance of spreading awareness and spreading the word, helps us set up smaller factions in places where people can’t have hospitals. Most wolf packs suffer from illnesses, that they think are common for our species. Having no clue that they’re being tricked. That there are cures, and symptoms to look out for. And in the process of not knowing the cause of their illness, they start to derive

{~~Avery Sterling~~}I know myself more than anyone else. So when something in my body, my consciousness goes off, i can feel it. Bad dreams are omens, warning signs for me.This is another nightmare. I could tell. The storm, the strewn-up trees, they were the signs I'm about to have a terrible dream. The howling wind screamed through the forest, whipping the branches into a frenzy and sending leaves swirling around me like a cyclone. The sky above was an angry, churning mass of dark clouds, illuminated sporadically by flashes of lightning that cast eerie, fleeting shadows on the ground. Each thunderclap was a deafening roar, shaking the very earth beneath my feet.The forest was alive with the sound of the storm, but it was a hostile, menacing life. The trees, gnarled and twisted, loomed over me like the skeletal fingers of some ancient giant, their bark rough and blackened as if scorched by some forgotten fire. The air was thick with the scent of damp earth and decaying leaves, a pu

{~~Avery Sterling~~}I threw my bag over my shoulders, ready to head off to work. I let the nightmare fade into the back of my mind, I just can’t let myself be haunted. I hopped down the stairs, my stomach tightened at the prospect of eating so I’m going to skip food today. If I get enough water, I should be fine until lunch. Hopefully, at that time, I’ll feel hungry enough to eat something later. I had just gotten to the bottom when I heard Logan’s voice.“Another one? We’ll be there soon- she’s not going into labor, how is that even possible? The obstetrician said her contractions are- that just doesn’t make any sense. She didn’t show any negative signs, did she? A slit to the throat? Yes, I’m heading out now. They need to stabilize her and try to get her to go into labor.”He hung up just as I revealed myself. Logan looked tense.“Oh good, you’re ready. We’ll take my sports car.”His what? Some days I forget that his family is vastly wealthy thanks to the way he lives. His house is
