Thank you for supporting Healing Powers. I figured I would not torture you with another cliff hanger today 😘 . Next chapter update will be tomorrow. Hope you enjoyed the chapter. Ellie xo
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
Jenna POV Calling the parents in, Adam following close behind, I advised them that their pup would be alright. He would be up and playing in no time. I suggested they could wait while it takes him a bit of time to wake up. Given that I was able to heal him, I knew it would be a few hours before he would be awake. Asking the parents if they needed anything before I stepped out of the room, they quickly replied no and thanked me for helping their pup. Adam and I walked out of the room before I pulled him into my office and shut the door. Adam was confused at my haste, until I jumped into his arms, wrapping my legs around his waist. “If this is how you react every time you help someone, I am moving my office here, Red” he chuckles as he nuzzles my neck. I laugh, “No you silly, I have big news,” I say to him. He leans back to look at me, “Oh?” he asks. “That little boy had a grim outlook, but I was able to heal him,” I scream whispered to Adam
Jenna POV As I sat there trying to focus on the Mate Gala planning, I was swept away with thinking about Josie. Did she do anything that really warranted she not get a second chance? She had raged when her brother died. Who would not? She rejected Sam. Again, selflessly not wanting to taint him with her blood. The more I thought about healing her the more excited I got. It would be a different approach than what was forced on me with the Rogue King. I would never survive another healing attempt in that way. I know Adam will fight me on this, but I feel like this is something I am compelled to do. There is something that has drawn me to Jenna. As I sit here, I recall how Eric was adamant that this someone special to him be healed. And that it was his sister. If he had one ounce of compassion, it was for his sibling. For whatever reason they did not like one another. But when push came to shove, they were there for each other. And wh
Adam POV It had been a few days since Sam had left. We had heard nothing from him. I knew he was alright, or I would have felt something through our Pack bond. The truth was this was the kind of situation I liked to have Sam’s input on. To potentially heal Josie will have implications on our Pack. I needed to bounce the ideas off someone who was not personally invested. That would not be Sam but left me with few other options. Jack was too far against her. Jenna was for Josie and is perhaps biased with her desire to heal her. I sigh as I sit back in my office chair. I knew Jenna had been getting antsy waiting for me to give her the nod. The truth was I was scared to tell her to go forward. What if she went too far? How could I protect her when she was in a healing mode for someone? I wondered so many things and discussing the situation with Jenna you would think there were no risks. Since she resumed using her powers, she feels she is unstoppabl
