All Chapters of Right Love, Wrong Alpha: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

VioletMy hands were shaking as I moved to the adjoining bathroom, looking for anything that might help. It broke my heart to see him like this, bloodied and beaten just because of me.Alpha Alaric’s words still rang in my head of how Elijah had killed his brother. Could he have really odne that?He loved Cassie a lot and protected her more than his own self. How could he have taken the life of another sibling?But then Elijah had often called himself a monster and that he had done some irredeemable things.But right now as I stared at his mangled back, I could not bring myself to think of anything else.I had no doubts Kelly was telling the truth about Elijah’s father not wanting a doctor to tend to his wounds.I had to clean the wounds to the best of my ability.Thankfully, I found a first aid kit tucked under the sink not long after. It was a forgotten old box but consisted of basic supplies such as bandages, and some antiseptic. Nothing seemed adequate for the severity of his inju

VioletShe began applying it to Elijah's back, her touch gentle in a way that seemed at odds with her usual cold demeanor. Her fingers traced the damaged tattoos, the ruined skin, with something that looked almost like tenderness.I couldn't help but stare at her. This woman who'd threatened me, who'd ordered me to break her son's heart, who'd stood by while her husband beat Elijah bloody…she was shaking while treating his wounds. Her perfectly composed mask had cracks in it, revealing something underneath that looked like an actual feeling.She caught me staring and her jaw tightened. "I know what you saw," she said quietly. "In the hallway with Alaric and that woman."I didn't know what to say, so I said nothing."All Alphas are like that," Aurelia continued, her voice taking on a bitter edge. "Especially the men in this pack. Ever since the witch..." She paused, her hands stilling on Elijah's back. "Ever since the war with the witches, something changed. The men became harder and c

I'd completely forgotten about it. Everything that had happened last night, especially seeing Elijah covered in blood had driven all thoughts of the actual wedding from my mind."I need to stay with him," I said, moving closer to the bed. "Until he wakes up. I need to make sure he's okay.""No," Lady Aurelia said firmly, not looking up from her examination of Elijah's wounds. "You need to go get ready. Hair and makeup start in two hours. The ceremony is at four o'clock. As a maid of honor, your presence is required.""But…""I will stay with him," Lady Aurelia interrupted. "I'll make sure the healer treats him properly. You have other obligations to fulfill."The way she said it made it clear this wasn't a suggestion but an order. I thought about our conversation last night while she'd looked at him with such tenderness while telling me love wasn't enough in this place."You'll take care of him?" I asked, hating how small my voice sounded.Lady Aurelia finally looked up at me, and he

VioletI gasped against his mouth and he took advantage, his tongue sweeping in to deepen the kiss. One of his hands stayed tangled in my hair while the other dropped to my waist, pulling me flush against him.I could feel every hard line of his body through the thin silk of my dress and the way his heart was hammering against my chest. I could feel the barely restrained hunger in the way he held me and suddenly it was too much to simply stand there and do nothing.My hands moved from his face to his shoulders, gripping the fabric of his jacket to keep myself upright because my legs had stopped working. The world spun, and I was pretty sure it had nothing to do with the heels.“What are you…” I began but he wouldn’t let me finish as he walked me backward without breaking the kiss, his body herding mine until my back hit the wall. The cool surface was a shock against my bare shoulders, a sharp contrast to the heat of Elijah's body pressed against my front.He braced one hand on the wa

VioletElijah emerged from behind one of the curtains where the groomsmen had been waiting. He was supposed to have been with the other groomsmen, but apparently he'd slipped away for some reason.Our eyes met across the distance, and he smiled at me.But something was off about that smile. It didn't reach his eyes. There was tension in it, something that looked almost like... apprehension?A flicker of unease went through me, but I pushed it aside. He was probably just worried about being in the same room as his father and just as eager as I was for this ceremony to be over so we could leave.He made his way to the front row and took the seat beside his parents. Lady Aurelia glanced at him, and I saw her lips move in what might have been a question. Elijah shook his head slightly, and she turned her attention back to the aisle.Nicole had begun her procession, walking slowly to the music, her train being carefully managed by two young flower girls who struggled with its weight. But
