Thank you for all your support for Healing Powers. Jenna and Adam are finally mated and marked ... but for how long? Next chapter update will be tomorrow. Be sure to leave a comment or review. Ellie xo
Jenna POV The pain coursing through my body was destroying me. I could feel wave upon wave of rage coming through the much thinner mind-link I had with the Rogue King. I could hear Adam yelling for Doctor Rivers to do something, while I rocked back and forth in a ball holding my head. Adam’s hand on my head helped ease some of my pain. I put my hand on his holding it there. I felt his lips on the top of my head, which further helped. Around the pain I felt anger. Anger at having the most important and beautiful night of my life marred by the Rogue King. Another wave of pain rolled over me as I heard Adam and Doctor River’s talking. “The only one who can fight this is Jenna,” Doctor Rivers says. “I want to kill him,” I heard Adam say. “We do not know what killing him will do to her, unfortunately,” Doctor Rivers mutters. I feel him swab my arm before I feel a pinch in my arm. Almost immediately the pain in my body was starting to feel n
Adam POV I could feel Jenna’s bond starting to weaken. I struggled, as did Sam, trying to break the connection between the Rogue King and Jenna. They continued to stare at one another, the Rogue King starting to feel victorious at the demise of Jenna. As he started to laugh, there was a sudden confused looked on his face. Not aware of what had happened, I am startled as I start to see a dribble of blood slipping out the side of his mouth. His grip on Jenna falters as he takes a step backwards. As he moves his face contorts from confusion to pain. He coughs and more blood escapes his mouth. He releases Jenna in a rush as his hands move to his chest. Then we are able to see it – a silver butcher knife sticking out of his chest. He continues to step backwards. Shock is all over his face as his hands try to grab the handle of the knife. As he reaches it, he pulls it out. Blood starts to pour from his body as he releases a blood curdling scr
Jenna POV I stand there in awe. I realize I am in a hospital shirt with nothing else on and feel incredibly undeserving of seeing the Moon Goddess dressed as I am. I show my neck to her in a sign of respect. I cannot imagine why I am seeing her at this moment. Am I dying? Have I died? Tears well up in my eyes as I consider the losses I will feel. She is wearing this angelic dress with long sleeves that drape on her arms. She moves with simple grace; almost like she is gliding as she moves. She has stunning white hair, with crystal blue eyes wearing a crown of flowers woven together. As my eyes move across her I reach her eyes to find her staring at me. I look at the Moon Goddess with tear filled eyes and a questioning look. She smiles at me sadly as she moves forward to take me into her arms. “Jenna, you have had a challenging time,” she starts to say. My heart fills with sadness. “Am I being punished?” I ask her unable to wait for h
Adam POV I could not believe Jenna had been returned to us. She was so strong. I could not believe she had destroyed the Rogue King and lived to tell the story. We did have another issue, but that could wait for Jenna to be ready to face the world. Right now, she just came back from who knows what. I simply stare at her in awe. Awe that she returned to me. She puts her hand on my face. I put my hand over hers, just basking in the amazing feelings of holding one another. “We got lucky,” I murmur to her. She nods her head as tears fill her eyes. “What?” I ask her as tears track down her cheeks. “I saw the Moon Goddess,” she says softly. I am shocked. But she has not seen the marks yet, she does not realize that the Moon Goddess is protecting our bond. “I had to make a choice to keep my powers or to release them,” she continues quietly. She looks down, “Because I killed the Rogue King, I should have to pay,” she adds. I look at her co
Adam POV The next couple days with Jenna were a blur. We spent most of our time together. She continued to get stronger and was taking to her Luna duties quite quickly. She also worked at the Pack hospital a few hours a day, giving Doctor Rivers a much-needed break during those times. You could see her passion for healing in everything she did. She had not tried to use her powers, regardless of how much I had encouraged her to try. I still could not wrap my head around a Moon Goddess who would punish her for saving the Pack. I had just got to my office, when I heard of a disruption at Josie’s cell. Racing over there, I mind-link Sam but find I am blocked by him. I mind-link Jack, who agrees to meet me there. As we both arrive at the doors, we hear yelling coming from inside the dungeon. We had since moved Josie to the dungeons simply because we could not keep her in the holding cells indefinitely. We race down to her cell and see Sam and
Jenna POV A week had passed since I killed the Rogue King. I still carried the heavy burden of what I had done. Adam wished I had not done what I did, but I honestly do not see any other way we could have achieved destroying him. I still missed having my powers. Adam keeps encouraging me to try and use them, but I am fearful to try and then have them not work. For now, I am living with not knowing. It helps that something that would benefit from my healing powers has not occurred either. Adam and I were getting along very well. We had settled into a comfortable routine. I felt like I was the most important person in the world to him. We have a date night tonight so I am just preparing for it. This will be the first date he and I have gone on together. With everything that has been happening, with Josie and Sam in particular, we have not had a chance to go out like this. Josie and Sam are still at war with one another. Sam refuses to ac
Jenna POV Adam and I enjoyed an authentic Italian supper last night. The ravioli was my favourite part of my meal, well that and the garlic bread. I could survive on their garlic bread. Melted three cheese combination on homemade bread. Delicious. Adam had been to the restaurant before. When we went in, they were excited that Adam had found his mate. They were a wolf run restaurant and very kind. We had a private table toward the back. Adam and I spent most of our time talking about the future. How many kids we will want, what our plans are for the Pack. It was an amazing dinner and the connections we made were inspiring. From there we went to a Pack owned club. We ran into some of our Pack members so we invited them to our VIP seating area. Given that I knew how to party, it was great to meet some Pack members who liked to get out and enjoy themselves. I had missed a bit of getting out. Not that I would want to go without Adam, but
Josie POV I fell to my knees after Sam walked away from me. His acceptance of my rejection was devastating to my soul. What there was of it. The truth was there was nothing more that I wanted than to accept Sam as my fated mate. But he deserved more than me. More than a mate with a tarnished heart. I could feel the darkness within me. It caused me so much pain and embarrassment. I could not know what mating and marking me would do to Sam. I could not take the chance that he would assume some of my traits. I had nothing good to offer Sam, I could not take the chance of sharing that with him. I had my face in my hands crying my eyes out, when I realized I was not alone. My body went tense as I looked over my shoulder. I cringed when I saw both Adam and Jenna watching me. Confusion in their eyes. “What the hell do you want?” I sneer at them as I turn away from them wiping my eyes and trying to compose myself. “Why did you do i
