19 | When She Can't Run Like A Coward
Dhara had run out of the room so fast, her head spun and her legs shook even long after she had shut herself in the room for almost an hour.
It was just so weird.
Not, not just weird. It was unbelievable. A meteor-shower kind of unbelievable. It just didn’t feel real. None of it did.
Her chest rose and fell with untamed breathing while her eyes watered, panic settling deep into her bones. She didn’t know what to do, or how to handle this new piece of bizarre information. Was it even true? Everything that she had seen with her own two eyes. Or was it something cooked up by her own silly brain? It was so impossible to be sure. Or to believe in beings like him…
Dhara shook her head and drew another rush of fresh air into her shocked lungs. She needed to get her head back on track; she needed to think straigh

Zayden glanced to his side and found Dhara lost in her thoughts. He knew she was lost because even though they had reached her apartment complex a few minutes ago, she hadn’t made a move. She kept staring out the window, her breathing steady, her body relaxed, but her mind? Her mind was at war with itself. He could tell. He could almost feel it in his bones. And dammit, he wished he could give her a bit of respite from all these overwhelming emotions and the conflict that she was clearly fighting with herself. But if there was anything the Alpha male had learned from his past experience, it was that one had to face their demons alone. He could assure her, support her, and give her a shoulder to worry on for all he wanted, but the truth was that no one knew her better than she knew herself. If there was anyone who could help her right now, it was her own wisdom and her strength. No one else. Quietly, he sighed, running a hand through his dark hair. A part of his was glad and overjo
HEALER AND THE BEAST Prologue
“How can the moon goddess be so vicious?” Zayden thundered aloud, his body convulsing with the blind rage galloping through his bones. “How could she do this to us? How?” Standing behind the furious man, Dhara trembled with all her being. Her heart raced amok in her chest, and her knees threatened to buckle. Her alpha’s rage exploded throughout the bare room and brought sickness to her soul. Seeing him hurting and on the brink of shattering made her feel horrible about herself and their unfortunate circumstances. But what could she really do? The moon goddess molded her destiny with her own capable hands, or so she was told, and who could ever go against the goddess? However, despite all the red flags and anger visibly pouring out of Zayden, Dhara sucked in a deep breath and took one more step closer to where he stood. Despite the absence of physical contact between them, she could easily sense the rumble beneath his chest as if it were her own. He was burning up with anger, frustra
HEALER AND THE BEAST 1 | When Someone Bangs The Door
Zayden groaned out of sheer frustration when the pounding on the door of his room refused to cease. What the fuck was going on outside? He grunted to his wolf, who only rolled his sleepy golden eyes before letting them fall shut and sleep. Zayden didn’t like the way his wolf treated him these days. Nothing pleased him. Nothing seemed to fetch his attention unless they were on a hunt or sprinting wildly through the woods, panting and wheezing out of breath. Other times, his wolf either snorted or ignored the man completely. As for now, his wolf seemed to be in ignoring mode, and that frustrated the male like anything. Shaking his head, Zayden got to his feet and stretched his broad arms out. The mirror across the room reflected a fine specimen of a man: tall height, bulky shoulders, and firm muscles in all the right places. Among all the men in the pack, Alphas were known to be much more endowed and powerful. They were the epitome of strength, dominance, and command. Not to forget,
HEALER AND THE BEAST 2 | When Sisters Cross Limits
[A Few Hours Ago] Dhara’s brows furrowed deeply into her head as she read the text message from her sister again. “How can Nina be so stupid?” she muttered to herself, her gaze fixed on the bright screen of her phone. For years, Dhara had done everything in her power to shield her younger sister from the dangers of the world, but today, as she turned 18 and completely legal, Nina seemed determined to push all her boundaries at once. Despite being legally an adult, Dhara still felt an overwhelming responsibility to keep her sister safe, especially when Nina announced she wished to celebrate her birthday at a sky-high nightclub—a den for rich bastards and pervert generation. Dhara knew all too well what went on at those types of places—the scantily-clad women, the excessive drinking, and the lecherous men looking for a quick hookup. There was no way she was going to let her sister get caught up in that kind of environment. No way in hell! Although Dhara had never experienced anyt
HEALER AND THE BEAST 3 | When Reality Fades Away
“Let me go, you perv!” Dhara snapped at the man. The same man who answered the door. The man at the sight of whom a tight shiver curled down her spine. If only Dhara wasn’t blinded by so much rage, she would have noticed the only man standing in the room had the looks of a sexy sinner. His beautiful pair of hazel eyes brimmed with part boredom and part amusement. If the annoyance hadn’t obfuscated her brain, she would have realized how her heart couldn’t stop pounding against her chest when he pinched those thick eyebrows and tipped a corner of his lips up. God, that was so hot. Even her subconscious couldn’t help but drool. But that was all happening somewhere in the back of her mind, where her present reality seemed to suppress it all the way. Weird emotions churned in the pit of her stomach were being drowned by the nausea she felt while fretting about her sister. With her wrist in his skin-tight grip, he sneered. “I’ve been nothing but a gentleman since you walked in.” The
HEALER AND THE BEAST 4 | When Nothing Makes Sense
“Look, obviously, this was a massive misunderstanding. I was just looking for my sister. And now that she is here—safe and sound—let’s not make a big deal out of it.” After enduring the most embarrassing moment of her life, only Dhara knew the poise and courage it took to sit in front of the same man she had harassed not so long ago, as if her insides weren’t lit on fire. Having no clue what on earth got into her, she found it hard not to chew her lips out. All her life, Dhara had never felt this kind of surge and white electricity begging to be released. She had never felt this unexplainable attraction to anyone. Men had never been a priority in her life, not when she had a younger sister to take care of, not when their parents weren’t around to ease the weight of responsibilities off her shoulders, and not when the stress of next month’s rent and the food they needed on their table for healthy survival inhabited her mind. Her forehead and cheeks warmed with the awareness of his i

“Alright. Good. Try to get some sleep now. You’ve got a long day tomorrow. Oh, and do not open the door for anyone until it’s me. No. Not even for the milkman. I know you’re old enough, Nina. Just…just do what I say, please. OK? I don’t have the energy to fight you right now. Yeah. Fine. Good night. Bye.” Disconnecting the call, Dhara sighed deeply in her chest and allowed her head to fall against the back of the couch. She had never left Nina alone at home. And even though her little sister wasn’t actually all alone, her best friend Poppy had agreed to stay for the night. Dhara couldn’t force down the awful anxiety gnawing at the middle of her chest, making her troubled and nervous. “You know, I can still ask one of my men to keep a watch on your house. I promise they won’t engage until it’s absolutely necessary.” Dhara couldn’t help but scoff at his words. “One of your men? You make it sound like you’re the don of some crime syndicate.” “What if I am?” She could hear the grin in

“That’s right, a witch!”“A what?”“A witch!”“What WHAT?”“Do you want me to spell it out for you?”“No, what I want is for you to make a little more sense.”“Ooh, she is feisty!” Jasmine chipped with a broad grin. “I love her already.”“You have no idea,” Zayden groaned out of pure frustration, forcing the alcohol down his throat and wincing when the bitterness boiled through his chest. He once again turned around to fix that dumb girl with a pointed gaze. “Look. Either you do as she says, or keep up the act, and I’ll drag that sweet ass myself. Don’t force my hands. The choice is yours.” He threatened.Zayden would be lying if he said the girl his wolf was going crazy for hadn’t gotten into his nerves in the last few hours. How could someone be so annoying? Fuck him, he didn’t see that coming. Since the moment she walked into his hotel suite, all he could think about was to bend her over that damn couch and fuck her senseless. And not only because she had a perfect ass that was cre
