All Chapters of ALPHA ON WHEELS: Cured by His Wolfless Mate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

River Ravenwood wiped tears and snoot from her face. It was her twenty-first birthday as a wolfless wolf. She had spent the previous night in the forest, under the full moon, begging the Moon Goddess for a wolf, all to no avail. Now with swollen eyes, she stared at the mirror, envisioning her hopeless future as a wolfless first daughter of the pack’s alpha.Suddenly, the door of her room burst open without warning and River quickly sat up on the bed. Her step mother, Cecilia strutted in, with Lily, her nineteen year old daughter.“It’s your twenty-first birthday River. Did you get your wolf?” Cecilia asked.Before River could answer, Lily moved to River’s bed and yanked the cover off her. She checked River’s body, chest, arm, thigh and hair. Lily hissed and shook her head.“No wolf, Mother.”“You never cease to disappoint me, River.” Cecilia said in a triumphant tone.River bowed her head in shame as she awaited more insults from her stepmother.“I had my suspicions about you before,

Thane Thunderhoof, successor of the Lunar Pack, sat within his room staring at the moonlight filtering through his window. The outside world was once his battleground. He had been the perfect warrior: strong, fast, ruthless. Now, his legs, shattered by a brutal rogue battle, were glued to a wheelchair. His pride was gone, his confidence gone, his strength gone.This once mighty warrior, the future Alpha of the Lunar Pack, was no more than a ghost of what he used to be: broken and useless, he felt. The future of his pack seemed so bleak. The rogues; those no-good, damned creatures, were once more on the rise. It wasn't the pain of the wounds that troubled him.; it was the pain of abandonment and helplessness that was tearing at his heart.Axel was a fated mate who had left him for dead in that loneliest cold corner of his mind, and now everything associated, even with the memories of their love, was bitter, taunting remarks as far as his frailty was concerned.“What's the point of bei

River put her worries aside and went to the dining room. It was a quiet, wordless breakfast where neither of them spoke much, only occasional politeness and response to Thane’s father, who ate with them. Afterward, River went outside, walking in the garden. The air was brisk that morning, full of flowers and the earthly smell of wet soil. Peaceful, a contrast to the turmoil in her head. She needed space; a space to think, to breathe, and figure out what was to come.Outside, the walk into the garden was suddenly a blur of flowers and trees and sunshine, but her mind weaved its way back to what was found in the attic: old journals, books, and letters, her mother's, written before she died. River had been too young when her mother died, and she remembered little, only whispers, rumors: most from her father and her stepmother, Cecilia.They told her that her mother was a healer, a Luminari, but from the manner in which they spoke, it would have seemed as if she was some sort of mistake t

“Young Alpha?” Thane heard the hesitant voice of his maid, Zara. Theresa got up and patted Thane on the shoulder. “I just returned from Bloomberry pack. I will go freshen up and give Father the reports. Be good, Brother.” Thane nodded as Theresa opened the door and went out of the room, letting in the hesitant Zara. Zara, his loyal maid, attended to his needs, her gentle touch a comforting solace. To take his mind off his troubles, he decided to chat with the maid. “Zara, how are things in the pack?” He asked. Zara hesitated, not knowing how much of the activities going on to talk about, in order not to worry her master. “Normal daily pack life, Young Alpha.” She eventually replied. “Give me the details.” Thane insisted. “Ryker trains the warriors every day. The guards go on patrol, the tutors train the pups. They are preparing for another age group rite of passage.” Zara concluded. That pained Thane. He was the one in charge of decisions on such things. Normally, he would

A knock on the door brought River back to Lunar pack with a jolt.“Who is it?” She asked as she struggled to her feet to open the door.“It’s me.” River heard a strange female voice that she had not heard among the few maids she was acquainted with in the pack house. Whoever the mysterious caller was, she knew she was safe. River opened the door.Her eyes fell on a beautiful she wolf, in her early twenties, with exact red hair like Thane’s. She was a head shorted than River’s five feet and eight inches, her eyes were sparking green unlike Thane’s piercing grey eyes. A smile spread across her face like Alpha Malcolm’s as she bubbled up to River and clamped her in a bear hug.“You must be River!” The newcomer exclaimed. “Welcome, Sister-in-law.” That explained it, she must be Thane’s younger sister. River stayed in her warm embrace, a smile emerging on her own tear stained face. After ten seconds, she gently pried herself away from the tight hug.“May I know the name of my beautiful s
