《Alpha Cravings》Chapter 6 Strange things are happening
Advertisement
"Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe are you there." I hear over the mind link as I slowly open my eyes.
"Dad" I answer back, realising I was still on the floor.
"Oh, thank God your mother and I have been trying to reach you for hours. Are you ok?"
"I, I think so" I answer.
Where are you?" He sounded worried.
"I'm at Damon's hotel. He bought me here last night to talk but we only argued so I kicked him out. But dad something strange happened......"
"Listen sweetie" dad cut in "we've been attacked by rogues your mum is hurt badly can you get back as soon as?" He anxiously asked.
"On my way dad. I will be in wolf form so have some clothes ready."
Worry takes hold of my mind like a plastic bag is covering my head, and I'm gasping for air. Sickness forms in the pit of my stomach as I panic, worried for my mother and hoping she will be alright. I got up off the floor, and notice that the scorch marks are still there. Last night really happened and it wasn't just a dream. I grab the door handle and close my eyes sucking in a deep breath to try and calm down a bit. "What the hell Phoebe, you said you was at the hotel" came my dad's frightened voice. I open my eyes and screamed. There kneeling down outside on the ground beside our house, over my mum was my dad. I screamed again, and started to panic "I..... I was, what the hell is happening to me?" I questioned.
"Calm down Hun" Soothed my dad "whatever is happing we will figure it out later. Hurry and heal your mum so I can get back to the fight." (Rogues are wolfs that have been banished from a pack for crimes they committed or have decided to leave on their own free will)
Looking over mums' injuries I winced at what I saw and quickly assessed on what I had to heal first. Deciding that I needed to heal the gash on her upper torso first that ran from her left shoulder to just above her right ribcage as there was a lot of major muscles and organs involved. I quickly dropped to the ground beside her and held my hands over the injured area. I felt the energy as it left my fingertips as the wound quickly healed over. Her second injury was a broken femur that broke through the skin. I got dad to push the bone back through the skin and once again I placed my hands over the injury and let the energy flow from my fingertips. Once I was sure the bone had healed back together, I closed her skin back over. Her wolf will take care of any smaller injuries that she has. Dad ordered a pack member to carry mum back to the pack's hospital for Dr Grey to check over and took off to join the fight. Quickly shifting I was right behind him.

We came across the rogues towards the beginning of the woods it didn't take me long to figure out that Jacob and Tessa were in trouble as ten wolves surrounded them so myself and dad raced over to help them. I grab hold of a scrawny looking grey wolf that was about to pounce on Tessa from behind aiming for his throat I tear out his jugular killing him instantly. My dad's wolf had a brown wolf clenched between his teeth that is wrapped around the wolfs neck. The wolf quickly submits to me dad and gets up and runs back into the forest. Two down eight to go. I bound over the top of a brown wolf as one had Jacob by the neck and as I bit into his side he quickly let Jacob go. "Thanks doll" Jacob quickly links me "I had it all covered." Ella swings her head in Jacobs direction mocking him by flashing her bright white teeth at him "you certainly did" I sniggered. As I quickly grabbed hold of the Brown wolf by the scruff of his neck and flinging it into a nearby tree.
My wolf lifts her head to look around as she hears the howl of her mate's wolf. She spots him 200 yards away bleeding from his front paw and the side of his head. Feeling torn as she wanted to go to him but also knowing she couldn't leave her friends. She lifts her snout in the air and howls, her howl is one filled with sorrow.
I grab another wolf tearing that one to pieces as dad badly injures another. I hear bones crushing as Tessa takes down a dirty light grey wolf. As soon as we finished with the other three Ella bounds away to her Edmunds side as much as I had tried to stop her. She licks his snout then licks the blood from the side of his head until the wound closes. Once that was healed she drops her head and licks his front paw to heal that wound to. Edmund affectionately rubs his body against hers marking her with his scent and licks the top of her head in appreciation. For just a moment he rests his head on top of ours. I hear in my head "I'm sorry Phoebe, I love you" As Damon links me. Ella lets out a small whimper as I link back "but is it enough?" we ran off, away from them, as hoots and shouts of joy were heard as the last of the rogues ran off into the woods with their tails between their legs. We never lost anyone thankfully just a few that were injured. Feeling exhausted I head back home.

"I'm telling you mum fire came out of fingertips." I say pacing back and forth in front of the couch where mum was after getting home from the hospital, later that day. "Well, you are a white wolf" she responds "but mum, what if it's to do with something else" I say feeling frustrated. "No! I just think it's all the stress you and Ella have been under surrounding Damon. I'm sure Ella will settle down soon."
"But mum" I yell "how did I get here from Damon's hotel like I did." I heard the front door open and knew from the scent of oranges that it was my father. Coming into the lounge room and giving mum a quick kiss on her forehead he turned to me. "I've been thinking about that and I honestly think it's your wolf." Before he could say any more, I interrupted him "but dad" I yell starting to feel really irritated "fire came out of my fingers as well! why won't you both listen to what I have got to say?"
"Because we both think that it is your wolf." dad says while sitting at the bottom of the couch and putting mums' feet in his lap rubbing them. Throwing my hands up in defeat, I just agree with them and head to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Once dinner was finished, I headed up stairs to my room.
Hopping into the hot shower I let the water sooth my aching body. After dressing in a pair of night shorts and tank top I crawl into bed. Damon was the last thing I thought of before sleep claimed me.
I watched in silence as she emerged from the darkness of the forest glancing around to make sure nobody had seen her. I watched on as she ran for the back entrance of the pack house entering in through the maid's entrance and into safety. I will be sure to keep my eye on her closely from now on I thought as I finished running the perimeter of our territory.

Cheep!?
Charles Monroe survived the disappearance of his parents, did his best to hold things together for himself and his sister. He survived when she, too, vanished, leaving behind nothing but a cryptic note. He was devastated, but he kept moving forward as best he could. Cancer didn’t put him down, and after suffering through several rounds of chemotherapy, Charles Monroe thought that things might finally be looking up. That is, until a virulent strain of ebola swept through the city. With his immune system strained as it is, the odds don’t look good for Charles. Now, on the bridge between life and death, he hears a voice claiming to know where his family went. It claims that it needs his help and that it can give him a second life, one far away from all the pain he’s ever known. So, Charles answers as any reasonable person would. He says no. Charles isn't ready or willing to die yet. But, as with everything else to this point, even his choice to keep fighting is taken from him all too soon. With no other option but the dark oblivion of death, Charles chooses to make a deal with the spirit of a distant world that's seeking a wild card in its battle against the gods, monsters, and mortals that threaten its existence. Someday, he’ll find where his family went. Someday, he’ll uphold his end of the bargain and hunt beings powerful beyond anything he’s ever known. Someday, he might even – hatch? “CHEEP!?” Things to Know: -Cheep!? Will release on a minimum weekly schedule. -After a backlog of chapters, posting will slow, but in the interim you can expect a chapter a day up until roughly 25 chapters. -This story at times will potentially carry some heavy moments, but the tone is intended to be lighter overall. -There are invisible game-like elements in this story, but nothing so concrete as a dedicated gamelit novel. -I personally have some issues with anxiety, so I may or may not interact with the community a lot. I'll try if anyone has questions, but I can't guarantee that it'll be consistent. -MC is a non-human lead, and will never actually become human. Romance will potentially happen between side-characters, but not with the MC. -MC IS NOT THE ONLY VIEW POINT. I have to put that out there because people sometimes hate alternate PoV's in a story. None of them will be filler, and they'll be there only to give a little bit more nuance and meaning to the world that the MC has stepped in, or is about to be imminently important. I'll try to keep them down, but this also helps to prevent me from burning out getting trapped in one view. -Most of all, I hope that this story is enjoyable to you, and that you have a great time reading it! -Written by Michael Adams, Cowritten/Edited by Summer Kent
