Healing the Ruthless Alpha novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14

Aristo kept me company in Cahir’s suite but then night arrived and he had to prepare for the night party since he missed the official one. The initiation would start in thirty minutes and all pack members were required to attend but I didn’t feel like it and I couldn’t be damned to attend a ceremony for Kade.

“When will – When will he be back?” I asked Aristo as he made to take his leave.

For the last two hours, I waited for Cahir’s return but there was no sign of him anywhere. My wolf felt his absence and it made her go silent. The dread of what would happen with him was enough to tire her out with worry.

“He is using this visit to settle some things with the Alpha of Blue Blood pack. Don’t worry, he will be back.”

The Blue Blood pack were the closest to us here. It irked me that while I was waiting with bated breath for him, he was out conducting business. Did he not want me or what? If he was going to reject me, the least he could do was spare me the anxiety of waiting for his verdict.

My wolf whimpered at the thought of another rejection. I suffered through Kade’s rejection but my wolf may not be able to bear two rejections in a lifetime.

I fell asleep after Aristo left. Nightmares of a big black wolf chasing me out of an unfamiliar pack plagued my dreams until a sharp, searing pain woke me from my sleep. I gasped, pressing my hand to my chest as what felt like a burning spear pierced into my heart. The clock on the wall to my left showed the time to be midnight. That, coupled with the pain spreading through my veins, let me know the time had come. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

‘Welcome, Alpha Kade!’ My head exploded as a hundred voices shouted their congratulations as a new pack link opened up with the new Alpha. This was another downside of being an omega. Pack

links were dangerous for people with low power like myself. I could already feel a migraine setting in as the voices in my head cheered like someone was beating my head with a hammer.

After what felt like hours of struggling, I managed to block out the incessant and annoying voices of my pack mates. With peace and quiet restored to my life, I stretched in the bed that felt like clouds underneath me, then I turned and hugged a fluffy pillow.

“Sia,” I heard a voice like a roaring thunder in my head, making me jolt upright. “Where the fuck are you?” I knew that voice and I recognized another link opening up with the Alpha.

“Leave me alone, Kade.” I turned, attempting to close the link Kade opened with me but he held on to the mind link.

“You’re not allowed to miss my ceremony. Where the fuck are you? You better not be with that asshole!” I heard the growl in his voice. In fact, I felt the growl in the communication channel he opened with me.

“That ‘asshole’ is my mate!” I exclaimed, sitting upright in bed.

“Isn’t it too early to call me names, little wolf?” Light flooded into the room, almost blinding me. “We only just met.” Cahir stood at the doorway, his massive frame looking too large for the room as he walked in.

His weight sank into the bed beside me and my body automatically gravitated to his. He gripped my chin and forced me to look at him.

“Who are you talking to?” His dark eyes probed my face, wandering all over my skin and making me blush. The look in his eyes – He looked predatory, as if I was game and he had captured me. I felt like his prey with the way his eyes roamed across my body.

“It’s – My alpha,” I muttered, pulling away when his blank expression turned harsh.

In the background of my mind, I heard Kade shouting obscenities at me and threatening me for daring to miss an event as important as the Alpha’s initiation but I could not focus on his tirade when Cahir looked at me with his intense dark eyes boring a hole into my skull.
