All Chapters of The Cursed Alpha : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

VIOLET “I… can't… anymore…” I heaved, walking to the nearest fallen branch I could find.I wondered for the tenth time since we started this trip why I decided to tag along. Me and my stupid need to do more than was required of me. All the damned time.“Vi, get off your ass.” My brother ordered, glaring at me.He was in charge of this hunting party and yet he was stuck at the back, babysitting me. Being the only wolf in my pack who couldn't shift, I thought I could be useful by trudging along and doing most of the heavy lifting when they needed to shift.It was a stupid idea. We had been walking for miles, and the bag I had strapped to me was heavy, now carrying the fruits I had been picking along the way. “But I can't anymore,” I whined, “How do you do all this? And so often too?” I pulled out the liter of water I had been nursing all the way, taking a greedy sip.“Easily, Chico. I do not come along with a fruit bag.” He chuckled, sending a mocking look to my filled bag.But it w

VIOLET I flew backward from my seat, our elbow lock breaking. Orange juice spilled over both of us and I didn't notice, my eyes on the creature at the door.He was tall, taller than all the men in my life, and his body covered in jeans and a tee like mine was. But unlike me, his outfit complimented his lean body beautifully.My gaze trailed from his tightly balled fist to his heaving chest and his face that was part muzzle and part human; he was a demonic sight, but I felt no fear. There was instead a fluttering in my stomach, and a longing inside of me to caress his face and lightly massage his fists till they loosened. I held his gaze, and we were tied in a world of our own. His angry gaze faltered a minute, and he seemed almost confused until…“Vi,” Coda warned as he jumped in front of me, his body shielding mine, and breaking our stare.I looked beyond his body to see eyes whose color I couldn't tell cloud once again in anger. He advanced into the room, growling threateningly wh

VIOLET My head ached violently. I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar sight; a wooden ceiling like every other time, but vastly different from the one I usually woke up to.Yes, sleep. How had I fallen asleep? Confusion plagued me. The last thing I vividly remembered was running toward the woods. Panic clawed its way up my throat. No, he didn't. Surely he didn't. I tried to reach out to Hunter with my mind, but there was nothing in the black abyss. My hands trembled as I pushed the thin bed covers away, freeing my body. I forced unsteady legs to the only window in the room, pushing aside the billowing curtain.My legs failed me then, and I crumpled to the bare floor.The sun shone brightly outside, in a scenery I had never seen before. A stranger's world stretched out before me. Hunter was gone, home was gone—the dirt path, the familiar cabins, and the smells of burning wood from the mating ceremony. Brian had taken my home away.“You're awake,” His voice suddenly came from the door. I

VIOLET I remained in my position for long moments after Brian closed the door, gasping to feed my starved lungs.A hand drifted to my neck, it stung a little and it felt hot to the touch. What happened was no joke. Brian was indeed serious about keeping me here. Tears ran down the sides of my face, my eyes bleeding where my heart could not. I was in real danger, he could have taken my life in that instant.Fear gave way to anger. I angrily wiped away the annoying tears. I wasn't some rag doll to be tossed around. By all rights, I was his mate, regardless of my inadequacy to fulfill that role. And I'd be damned before I let him walk all over me.My gaze briefly touched the fist-sized dent in the wall as I passed through the long corridor. So I wasn't the only one having a hard time with my emotions. Good.If only he would let me go.The end of the corridor revealed a small seating area. It was significantly smaller than a packhouse should be, but it was obvious that this was theirs.

VIOLET The ground was suddenly vibrating harder, indicating the arrival of new guests. Friends or foes? I was too beat up to look.I felt a tongue lick at my face, then I forced my eyes open, and I was staring into the bright blue eyes of my mate. My heart wept with relief, as did my eyes, the tears pouring harder than ever. I was so happy to see him.Relief gave way to peace. Everything would be okay now, so I drifted off into the calling darkness.*****“Her healing rate is very slow,” I heard someone say in the background.My eyes remained closed as I couldn't summon the strength to push them open.The room smelled of antiseptic, the tough odour stinging my nose. My hands were placed at my sides, and I was covered by something soft, and heavy.I was tired, so tired and my body felt unlike my own. Most of my earlier pain was gone, and only the burn from my arm where I was bitten remained. They had some strong medicine over here.“We've done all we can, she'll be fine, but it might
