ALPHA AIDEN’S POV :
I kept running back to the pack with speed, though I was already feeling the effect of the silver that pierced into my chest.
*Silver is one of the things that can weaken or kill us*.
With every step, I felt weaker and weaker. I could feel the silver poisoning my bloodstream, sapping my strength. But I pushed on, driven by the thought of my pack. I had to get back to them and my family.
Finally, I reached the pack’s border. I saw my Beta with a group of warriors charging like they were going to fight, I knew they where coming to me but I nearly laughed at the thought because I had already finished the fight, though I was very grateful to see them.
As they spotted me, they quickly rushed to my aid. They quickly assessed the situation and knew they needed to get me to my house as soon as possible.
“Glad to know your alive man” Liam said as him and a warrior helped me to my feet, supporting me as we made our way back to the pack’s territory.
“Well I am but not exactly in a good condition” I croaked out.
We got to the house soon enough as they laid me on the chair in the sitting room carefully, where I groaned out in pain.
I heard my mother screaming as she rushed to my side and the Luna also checking up on me.
“Please all of you just shut it!” I screamed at them. The whole room went silent.
“Please for once don’t disturb my ears so much, go get a healer immediately instead of making it worse for me” I angrily ordered. My mother apologized as she caressed my head, urging me to stay strong.
*The healer arrived in time, her bag of herbs and potions slung over her shoulder. She had been summoned at the alpha’s home. She came and found the Alpha lying on long chair with his mum and Luna and other people present, with a silver arrow pierced through his chest. I knew that silver was toxic to werewolves and that every moment counted. The Alpha was unconscious when the healer arrived, but she could see that he was still breathing. She quickly assessed the wound and saw that the arrow had missed any vital organs. She pulled out a small knife and carefully cut away the fabric of his shirt around the arrow. The healer then pulled out a small vial of clear liquid from her bag and poured it over the wound. Alpha Aiden flinched as the liquid sizzled and bubbled, neutralizing the poison in the silver. She then grabbed the arrow firmly and pulled it out in one swift motion. Alpha Aiden let out a low growl of pain, but he remained unconscious. The healer then cleaned the wound with a damp cloth and applied a thick paste of healing herbs to it. She then gave him a potion to drink, which would help him fight off any remaining traces of poison in his system. The Alpha began to stir, and the healer sat by his side, watching him closely. She knew that he would be weak for a while, but he would recover. The pack would be able to rest easy knowing that their leader was on the road to recovery. The healer stayed with the Alpha for the next few days, administering potions and changing his dressings. She watched as the Alpha’s strength slowly returned and his wound healed. As the Alpha regained his strength, the healer knew that it was time for her to leave. She packed up her bag and said her goodbyes to Alpha Aiden. Alpha Aiden thanked her for her help, and the healer smiled. She knew that she had done her job, and that the Alpha would be back to leading his pack in no time, he was very strong Alpha. Even his body fought against the poison*
I laid on the bed, resting. I had gotten myself back as I waited for dinner to be brought to me. Camille was assigned to stay with me but she would be using the couch to sleep.
Luna Laila was no where to be found, my mum was like she blames herself for causing harm but she’s safe at her parents place. That girl, she’s the one that knows what’s wrong with her.
Camille brought my dinner, waiting for me to finish so she could take the tray to the kitchen. No one uttered a word as I ate and enjoyed my dinner.
When I was done she took the tray and hours later she came back.
Tonight will be the last night she spends the night in my room as I have fully recovered.
It was a full moon tonight, I could feel my wolf and I wanting our mate. I stood up and went over to where she laid on the couch, her eyes fluttered opened as she looked at me.
“Alpha” she whispered as I carried her to my bed. I kissed her slowly, savoring every thirst as I fondled with her breasts. Camille submitted to me like never before, allowing me to use her body as I like and I did. I couldn’t hold either myself or my wolf back as I fucked her into oblivion.
I was tempted to mark her as mine but I held myself back, no matter how much I craved for her, I couldn’t have her as my mate.
My wolf offered to be in control and I let him, I noticed her wolf was out too and we just couldn’t keep our hands off each other.
She moaned and cried out as I pounded into her slowly, her fingers grazing through my back. She kissed me back with so much passion as I did hers, I could feel tears rolled down her face. I could have stopped to ask her what happened but I didn’t.
Finally after about three rounds we called it a night.
The next morning, waking up Camille was no where to be found. Maybe she has gone back, I said to myself as I freshened up and went downstairs.
My mum rushed to me as I came down, announcing something that I would never wish to hear,
“Camille is gone”.
