Chapter 44: I don’t feel well
Alice’s Point of view
Awkward. That's the word.
Our 3 packs are gathered in this small lounge where we have been waiting for the King to meet us for at least two hours.
Each pack has eight representatives: the Alpha, the Luna, the Beta, the Gamma, their children who will take their place and the former Alpha.
The tension is palpable and the atmosphere is heavy. I observe Alpha Vincent, Derek's grandfather, observing with an impassive air my grandfather and Alpha Georges. His sisters were their mates and they both committed suicide. Yet, he doesn't seem to hold a grudge.
Besides, he sorts of raised my mother and Luna Lily and he has no contact with them now. And from what I can see, he doesn't seem to miss them.
"I'm sure he does, but there are so many secrets between our packs that he doesn't let on, for fear of it gettin

Alice’s Point of viewWe barely took off when my father and grandfather yell at me."What were you doing talking about that in front of everyone?" My father roars."Now that they know about these poisonous plants, they'll do everything they can to find one and destroy us with it." Adds my grandfather.I sigh. "Whether you like it or not, we're all in this together. I felt it was important to share the information I had.""What you know is no interest to us." Spits out my grandfather."You should have told us before." Says my father."You would have talked me out of it.""And we would have been right!" Shouts my grandfather. "Throwing it out in front of everyone. It's not possible to be that stupid."A grunt is heard. "Don't talk to my daughter like that." Says my mother through her te

Alice’s Point of viewEverything stops. Time stops, my heart stops, the world stops.Then everything collapses.Cassie howls in pain and I realize that the uneasiness I have been feeling for the last few hours comes from him."Alice, are you listening to me?" Melanie whispers.I blink a few times and try to keep a straight face."Is it bad?"She nods. "Their doctor examined him on the flight. He has no idea what it could be, but he thinks at this rate he won't last."Dying. He's dying.My heart is torn out and I collapse to the ground in pain and despair, alerting everyone."Get out of the way! Alice! Melanie, what's happening to her?" My mom asks in a panicked tone."I don't know, she just collapsed all of a sudden."The voices be
Enemy mate: the Moon Goddess plan Chapter 47: Good actions are always rewarded
Alice’s Point of viewEveryone rushes into my room as I wake up and I waste precious time reassuring them.A lame excuse and 20 minutes later, I'm free. My father informs me that Elliot has been poisoned and that blood tests have been done on Derek and me but no trace of any poison. It seems that this time, only Elliot was targeted.It's incomprehensible and right now, I don't care. I have only one mission: find a witch. In less than 24 hours."So easy." I say to Cassie with despair."Actually, yes. A witch is waiting for us at the cabin where we took Joey and Gwen years ago." "This is not the time for humor Cassie." "I'm dead serious. The Moon Goddess told me so."I stop in the middle of the hallway and Melanie and Sam who were following me bump into me.

Alice’s Point of viewThey surround me, ready to jump on me."I've got something to treat Elliot."They immediately stop growling and exchange puzzled looks. One of them walks away to shift behind a tree."Alpha Alice! What are you doing?" Asks one of my guards through mind-link, panicking."It's all right. I'm here of my own free will to help them." "We're coming!" Says another."No, don't! They might take it as a declaration of war. They will feel less threatened if I go alone." "Why are you going to help them?" A third one asks suspiciously."For the sake of our pack. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."I hear them whimper in the distance, not reassured that I am on enemy ground.The man who shifted

Alice’s Point of view"But where did this old woman come from? You're not going to make me believe that it's a coincidence?" Says Simon, slumped in the chair next to Elliot's bed."No, it's not a coincidence since she 'saw' him with her gift.""And she didn't ask you for anything in return?""No, she said that I did something or that I will do something, it was not clear, and that it is enough payment. Honestly, I didn't understand everything and I don't care. All I know is that Elliot's condition has improved and that's all that matters.""Yes he's not having trouble breathing anymore, that's a good sign." Says Owen, silent until then. "Thank you, Alice."Elliot wriggled slightly. "Alice."The three of us stand up. "Elliot! I'm here! Elliot?"But his face remains impassive."I don't unders
Enemy mate: the Moon Goddess plan Chapter 50: Sleeping beauty
Alice’s Point of view Finally alone, I turn to Elliot. His beautiful face is still relaxed as if he was sleeping. I trace the contours of his face with my fingertips, making sparks appear. The heart machine beeps a little faster. "I can't believe it. Are you going to chase me around or what?" It beeps a little faster. "I'm not talking to you, Elliot. I'm talking to this evil machine. When I got hit by the car, I kept hearing it the whole time I was in the hospital, it drove me insane." I swallow. "It's thanks to you that I woke up. I'm sorry I couldn't do the same for you in the library." A first tear escapes, then I start to cry uncontrollably. "Elliot, please. You have to wake up." I cry for several minutes. I cry of anger, pain, sadness, despair and fear. As if a barrier h
Enemy mate: the Moon Goddess plan Chapter 51: Snow White
Alice’s Point of view"What? What is the point of giving two different poisons?"Owen clears his throat. "Maybe to make sure it doesn't miss?"I shake my head. "I think one deadly plant unknown to anyone is more than enough.""Someone must have thought otherwise." Says Simon.Suddenly Owen straightens up, eyebrows furrowed."What are you thinking Owen?""Maybe two different poisons are for two different people." He says, looking at me."You think the second one was for me?"He shrugs. "Someone tried to kill the three of you and it didn't work. I guess this is the second attempt.""Assuming that's true, how could Elliot have ingested the poison that was meant for Alice?" Melanie asks."I think I know." I say. "I thought it was his food that was poiso
Enemy mate: the Moon Goddess plan Chapter 52: Busted
Elliot’s Point of view"I'm going." Alice says as she stood up."Wait for me."I try to pull out all the tubes and wires but immediately three people tackle me to my bed."What do you think you're doing?" Alice asks in an icy tone."I'm coming with you."She huffs. "That's right." She turns to Owen and Simon. "Make sure he doesn't leave this bed."She storms out, without so much as a glance at me.I feel the familiar pain in my chest caused by her indifference."Hey, don't worry, she'll be fine." Simon tells me."No, it's not that. I can't believe that after everything that has happened to us, she still doesn't care."Owen tilts his head to the side. "On the contrary. Do you realize what she has done for you? She showed up alone at our border. It's
