Death To The Alpha Chapter 53: Waking up
~Enzo POV~The low hum of voices sounds like a fly buzzing by my ear. I try to lift my arm to swat it away but groan in pain instead. The pain in my body grows with every passing second and I inhale sharply, trying to use any part of me. My right leg seems to be the only place the pain doesn’t live, so I bend it and rest it on the surface I am on, prying my eyes open, and blinking into the dimly lit room. Using my leg, I force myself further up the bed and I’m surprised to find that my side and stomach don’t hurt as bad as my arms or left leg. After lots of groaning, a little panting, and a few cuss words, I sit against the back headboard. My chest heaves up and down with the effort, but it was worth it to be off my back. Not that it was worse than my whole hanging situation. I scan the room, finding it empty, and I frown. I am in Ivy’s room at James’ house. Which makes no sense. I take quick stock of my injured leg and grimace at the smell of it and the discoloration. The poison on
Death To The Alpha Chapter 54: Only yours
Ivy gently applies the herbs to my leg, watching me closely for any indication that it may hurt. But the combined touch of her skin and the numbing effect of the salve keep me from flinching away. She then grabs a wrap and eases my leg up as she reaches around my thick thigh and tightly wraps it around me.“It’s looking better than it did when we first got you here.” Caleb muses and I scoff.“This is better?” I ask.“So much better.” Ivy agrees with Caleb. “The herbs draw out the wolfsbane, which will allow it to heal. You will have a scare. There is no way around that, but it will heal.”“Will I be able to walk?”My eyes flit between the two of them, waiting for one of them to not only answer me but to look at me. I growl rumbles low in my chest when a moment passes in silence and Ivy sighs heavily, stopping what she is doing. “We think so,” she says. “You think? But you don’t actually know?”I look up at Caleb, who frowns down at my leg and scrubs a hand over his face. “If the bo
Death To The Alpha Chapter 55: What's the plan?
~Ivy POV~I slip from Enzo’s side as the sun filters in through the curtains. A slight breeze drifting through and tickling the fabric. He finally looks peaceful for the first time since, well, ever. His dark hair is an adorable mess, and his face is now free of swelling, only barely there bruises dot the area beneath his eyes and his right cheekbone. My fingers itch to run over his stubbled face where the hair has grown back far faster than it has a right to after I shaved it early yesterday morning.“I can feel the weight of your eyes,” he mumbles. My heartbeat quickens and a smirk tugs at the corner of my lips.“Am I not allowed to look at what is mine?” I ask. He chuckles lightly, his tone so airy and unburdened.“Mmm, I like how that sounds.” He cracks his eyes open, blinking away the sleepiness and drinking me in. “You look different.” he muses.“Oh, yeah?”“You are quicker to smile.” I tuck a hair behind my ears, feeling his emotions, his lust, desire, his utter shock, and comp
Death To The Alpha Chapter 56: Deja vu
I smooth the chiffon fabric down my stomach, spinning to the side to make sure it looks okay. Finding a dress that was both appropriate and functional felt like a damn nightmare. Not that I had to find it myself, but James had brought twenty-three dress options. And I still don’t feel like the dress is perfect. It’s pretty and pale pink, innocent like I’m attending a school dance. I would have preferred blood red or black, but everyone agreed I needed to keep my meek facade up in front of the pack until the right moment comes.“My father will sit behind us and decide whether or not he wants to approve the match…” James says warily. He looks exhausted like he has been crying and drinking and not sleeping at all. “That isn’t normal in a mating ceremony,”“No, it’s not. But he informed me of the change just moments ago through the mind link. I have a feeling he is hesitant to let us mate because he knows it means that his time as Alpha is ending.” James explains. I lean forward and adju
Death To The Alpha Chapter 57: Vengence
The first guard thrusts his arm toward my throat and, for fun, I let him have it. His warm hand wraps around my throat and I stand my ground, taking joy in the thought that his hand will no longer be attached. I extend my claws, drop to my knees, and thrust my nails up and under his ribcage with a war cry. His hand drops from me as he wheezes and bends forward, holding his side. I throw the heel of my palm up into his face as I bring myself back up to standing. The sound of the crunch radiates through the building and he crumples at my feet, lifeless. The other warriors growl in anger and Jonathon’s eyes flicker in annoyance as he rolls his eyes and flicks his wrist to communicate to his men that they are up next. I allow my eyes to float through the room where pack members lurk closely but are doing their best to fight their alpha’s order. James has Sarah safely tucked away somewhere, and a trickle of relief rolls through me. Henley takes on two guys, one who fights in wolf form a
Death To The Alpha Chapter 58: Cake
~Enzo POV~There is nothing come hell or high water that could keep me from being near Ivy when she may need me, except for her demanding that she doesn’t need me. She is right and I know it. Need and want are different things, but to me, with her, those lines are often quite blurry. She may not need me there with her but I sure a shit know she wants me there.And as long as she wants me there, I will always be there, injured or not. I only wish I could move faster than I am in my current state. In the movie they had put on to ease my mind—as if that were possible with my mate putting herself in peril. The man was in an accident and used these things called crutches to move around. I did my best to create my own. They take the weight off my leg and place it squarely on my stiff shoulders and sore arms.Thankfully, the wounds on my arms are covered with scabs. My muscles are abiding by my request to work, for now. But my progress is getting closer to Ivy is ridiculously slow. By the ti
Death To The Alpha Chapter 59: You're done.
~Ivy POV~Enzo’s promise makes my skin prickle with anticipation of his hands on every inch of me. But I am hesitant because of his injuries. Even now the scabs on his arm are healing, but he reopened some of them and his leg is an enormous factor. Isn’t the thigh something kind of important when you are making love?“You’re injured, Enz,” I breathe.“Has that ever stopped me from coming for you?” He asks, quirking a brow and I bite my lip to keep from smiling.“No, I guess not.”“Then don’t start doubting me now.” He stands with a pained grunt and reaches down to grab my hand, pulling me up from the stairs. “Let’s get you cleaned up.”“My place is closer…” I tell him and he nods. “You no longer have a ‘my place’ Ivy. You are my mate, and I am about to make you mine. We live together now.”I hesitate, not sure how to process that thought. It’s not like I haven’t basically lived with the past five years. But this is different. This is forever and we both know it. It’s almost overwhelm
Death To The Alpha Chapter 60: I've waited so long
It takes more effort than I want to admit to contain my squeal of nervousness as I step out of the shower and grab the gray, fluffy towel. I stare at it for a second, thinking maybe I don’t even need it. It’s not like we haven’t ever seen each other naked before. I mean, we are werewolves. And he did just sit and watch me shower. I wrap it around my breasts, anyway. My lack of confidence in the realm of, well, this type of thing wins out. When I turn to face the mirror, I look at my reflection, smiling at the mark on my neck as I gently brush my fingers over it. It’s strange to find what you have been craving when you never really knew you were looking for it to begin with. Especially when it’s been by your side waiting for you to wake up all along. I can feel my heart working overtime as it pumps blood through my anxious body and my cheeks blush, thinking about Enzo waiting for me.“Ivy…?” Enzo’s face pops up in the reflection behind me. His eyes scan mine for any sign of distress,
