The Healer Chapter 45
Victor POVI saw red.I stood up from the ground and stomped off towards the packhouse in search of a dead man. I busted through the front door and made my way through the living areas and up the stairs. Pack members jumped out of my way as I stormed past them. When I reached the third floor, I turned down the hallway and made my way to Desmond’s door.Just as I was about to pound on the door, Tori came up beside me and grabbed ahold of my arm.“Victor, no!” She pulled my arm down and stood between myself and the door. I flared my nostrils and breathed heavily. I was barely able to control my anger, but when I glanced down at her, she had such a pleading look on her face, I calmed down and so did Ivan.“What? Why?” She took hold of my hand and led me away from the door and down the hallway. Ryder and Jeremy were right behind her.“If you go pounding on his door now, you’ll give us away! We need to know why he did it. Or if there is anyone else involved.” I shook my head; my only goal

Tori POVI sat on one side of the bed while Teaghan sat on the other. Both of us stared at my father, willing him to open his eyes. The heart monitor played its rhythmic tone as the respirator hummed with each measured breath. I watched his chest rise and fall gently. This mountain of a man who looked like he could take on a grizzly bear one-handed, was now lying here in a hospital bed fighting for his life. All because of the jealousy of one woman who wanted nothing more than the power and prestige that came with being with an Alpha. She did not love him. She may care somewhat for him but definitely not love. She saw her chance slipping away when she learned that Rick was spending his time with another lady. Corinne’s simple mind thought if she couldn’t have him, no one could. She ultimately did more damage than she planned to. As I pondered the reasons why Corinne would have done this, it struck me. Would she really kill the man she wanted? I could see her making life miserable for

Tori POVI followed Victor down the long hallway towards the conference room. I could see the heavy double wooden doors that enclosed the large room. Two guards were standing outside ready to open them as we neared.“Victor?” He stopped before entering the room.“Should I be here? I mean, should I be meeting her like this? It might interfere with the process. Remember? I don’t want anyone to know who I am beforehand.” He faced me and grabbed my face in his hands.“Baby, you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to. If you don’t want to go in there for fear of jeopardizing the healing, then you can wait out here. Unfortunately, as acting Alpha, I need to meet with her to find out what it is she wants.” I nodded and smiled. He leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on my lips before grabbing my hand and turning to face the guards.“Open the doors.” He commanded and the guards grabbed the handles and slowly opened the wooden doors. He took a deep breath and stepped into the room with me
The Healer Chapter 48
Victor POVI stood there contemplating her request. I am in no position to make that call. Unfortunately, Alpha Rick is still in the hospital unconscious and unable to speak with the Luna. I am certainly not announcing to the Luna his condition and whereabouts. I will just have to gather all the information I can and speak with the other high-rank members about a solution if there is one.I sat down in my seat and studied her. Her emotions and appearance seem genuine and Tori’s reaction to her is not as guarded as I would expect it to be for someone showing false emotions or having any hidden agenda. Even Ivan feels as if she is truthful about her speculations on her brother-in-law.I was about to ask her for examples and proof when I noticed Tori stifle a yawn and rub her eyes. It’s been a long night and day for both of us. Spending the night watching over Rick and then sparring this morning, she probably has no energy left to talk about accusations and solutions as serious as this.

Tori POVI woke up to the sensation of fingers running through my hair. I sighed and smiled before opening my eyes. I looked up and saw a pair of beautiful blue eyes staring back at me. I chuckled and he smiled back.“What are you doing?” He leaned over and dropped a kiss on my forehead.“Star gazing” I wiggled my nose at him.“Cheesy, but I like it.” I lifted my arms above his head and wrapped them around his neck. I pulled him down to my level and kissed him passionately on the lips. Beneath the sheets, I felt his legs shift and before I knew it, I was flat on my back and Victor was hovering over me.“Good evening, my beautiful mate.” He growled in a seductive raspy voice. I could feel butterflies in my stomach. He leaned down and sent shivers up and down my spine with open mouth kisses across my jaw and neck. “Dinner should be ready in a few. Are you hungry?” I hummed to him.“Yeah, but not for food.” I wiggled my eyebrows at him, and he blushed. He actually blushed!“You will be t

Tori POV“Good evening, Luna! How are you?” I asked, as Victor and I walked into the private dining room. Victor thought it would be better to have her dine with us in private so we could keep her visit unsuspected. Victor, Eric, Tammy, Charles, our Delta, the Luna and I were sitting around the table.“Hello Miss Tori. I am well, thank you.” Charles stepped behind her to hold her chair and push it in for her. I gave him a small grin and nodded.“Thank you, young man. What is your name?” Luna asked him as he went to sit but froze behind his chair at her question. He glanced over to Victor, who nodded.“Uhh..I I I’m Charles Dunfy. Mystic Moon’s Delta, Luna.” He fidgeted a little before he pulled out his chair and sat.“Nice to meet you.” She smiled at Charles who turned beet red. He smiled looking down. I chuckled to myself as Victor pushed my chair in for me. He leaned down and kissed my cheek before taking his own seat.The kitchen staff brought in the carts to serve us our dinner. Th

Ronin POV“Are you kidding me!?” I screamed at my second in command, Jax, my Beta-to-be.“I’m sorry, man! We’ve been looking everywhere for her, and we can’t seem to find where she went.”Jax stood before me with his head down and eyes on the floor. He’s been standing there for over an hour, giving me the latest reports on the search for the missing she-wolf, Gina. After the fire, we accounted for all our pack members and any guests that were here. Except for one. Gina. The red-head I bedded the night before the fire. After the scene in the kitchen the next morning, no one seemed to have seen her or remembered where she went. Jax and I questioned all my pack members, under Alpha authority, and found that no one knew anything about the fire or was a part of it. Except one. Gina. We need to find her and question her. We believed that she may have something to do with starting or causing the fire. My patience had gone thin, and I am beyond livid at the situation. It’s one lowly she-wolf
The Healer Chapter 52
Teaghan POVI sat in the leather lounge chair next to Rick’s hospital bed for the last few hours hoping that he’d wake up. Every now and then he would hiccup with the breathing tube but never open his eyes. The doctor came in about an hour ago to check his vitals and condition. He seemed pleased with his progress, although I didn’t see any but apparently, Rick was showing stronger signs of brain activity on the EEG.They still had no clue what kind of poison was on the knife but did know it was some form of wolfsbane and it was laced with something else. They were running tests to find out what.A nurse walked in with a tray of medication. Laying it down on the bedside table, she turned to me.“Miss, you should go home for a bit and get some rest. Get something to eat, other than hospital food.” I shook my head with a smile. There was no way I was leaving this room. If he was to wake up even for a moment and I wasn’t here, I would never forgive myself.“Thanks, but I don’t want to lea
