The Female Alpha You Can't Tame

Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Heat

Have you ever felt the burn of fire? As it crept up your body starting from the tips of your toes to every strand of your hair? Its scorching heat eats at your skin and you have no power over it. None at all.

I cannot seem to open my eyes. They feel very heavy to do so but my ears discern the loud scream filled with agony and my throat pains from the strength of it. My body is shaking with full force and I feel several hands holding me down.

"Hold her tighter!" I hear a voice. A male? Who?

"I am trying! She is strong, I cannot hold her down. We need more hands." Another wolf screech loudly trying to make her voice pierce through my screams.

The fire grows in heat and power minute by minute and I am engulfed in flames. What is happening? It’s tearing my body apart and I don’t possess the power to even lift a finger. I need to open my mouth; I need to speak to convey my pain so they can help me.

"I-It b-burns! What is h-happening to m-me?" I whisper in between my choked sobs. The coldness of my tears is the only sense of relief to my pain even though they last for a second.

"A-Alpha! Goddess please." I hear Elriam’s voice. She’s crying? Why? Her voice seems desperate.

"Where is Alpha Deimos? We need him here now!" I hear the other wolf, his voice worried. Deimos? I don’t understand. I don’t understand anything!

Another scream escapes me as I lift my head up clenching in my body to give way to the pain. I feel breathless. My chest heaves but with each breath I take I feel the flame burning. It pierces me from within.

"Fill the tub with as much ice you can. And pour this into it. The smell will calm her down." I listen closely to the voice. I know this voice. It’s... it’s Jace?

The shuffling of feet grabs my attention with doors opening and closing constantly. Voices mingle with each other as whispers. There are a lot of females here. My stomach twists and I gag. My tongue feels swollen as I swallow my saliva.

My throat is parched aching for water but I cannot seem to say another word. I have no energy to spare.

I keep gagging until someone slowly positions my shaking body to the side and my stomach flushes out what I probably ate last night. The smell of my vomit makes me gag further and I keep puking until the sensation leaves me. The feeling of a cold cloth being placed upon my forehead makes me want to smile in relief.

Yet it does so very little to comfort me from the pain I am feeling. "Is it done?" Jace questions

"Yes." A female reply.

"Alright we need to carry her and place her into the tub." Jace replies and I feel the warmth of wolves surrounding me. As they try to lift me up another wave of pulsing fire washes over me and I scream again.

"S-Stop." One word is all I manage to say as I try to fight them. As I am carried the pain increases due to the movement. I might pass out soon.

"Okay, gently. On my count." Jace says.

"One."

Goddess. What is happening to me? Please make it stop.

"Two."

I have had enough. Stop it! Stop. Please.

"Three. Now." He says and I feel my body enveloped by freezing water. I flinch as my breath hitches. The freezing water strikes my senses and as I inhale the scent surrounding me, I finally calm down. The pain remains only reduced a little by power.

"Alpha, open your eyes." Elriam says as I shake my head. I cannot. Rather I don’t wish to. "You can, slowly." She says further encouraging me.

My lips quiver and my body shivers. My teeth clattering while I put in my every strength to open my eyes. My lids flutter open and the light pierces me as I shut them close again.

"Look at us, Alpha." Jace says and I try once more this time trying to focus. My vison is blurry. "That’s it." I look around trying to apprehend where I am. "How many fingers am I holding?" Jace asks me as I scan his fingers.

"T-Two." I whisper.

"Yes good." He says softly as I find Elriam. Her eyes red as she watches me with concern.

"What happened?" I ask. My voice hoarse after all that screaming.

"You are in heat." Jace says and my eyes widen. Heat? What?

"Why is it this painful?" I question him. Yes, this is my first time experiencing it but I feel it’s more painful that it should be.

"I heard it has been quite some time since you met Alpha Deimos and I am guessing you haven’t mated yet. The more you wait the more painful it gets." He explains as I nod. I knew about this but I just thought it was a myth.

"How did you know?" I ask Elriam.

"Your screams woke us all up as well as your scent. The males are all in the pack house so do not worry." She says softly as I look up at Jace curious. Why isn’t he attracted to my scent? He should be going crazy by now.

"I have worked with several females that I have gotten used to the scents. It doesn’t faze me much anymore." He says answering my unasked question.

The pain begins to increase once more and I begin to sob in fear of what is to come as the door opens with a bang and a male screaming "Lumina!"

I see Deimos standing at the door disheveled, sweating as his chest heaves. His eyes big filled with worry as he searches the bathroom until his eyes find me. He ran here. Seeing him I sob even more. My emotions seem all over the place.

"Alpha." Jace and Elriam say in unison bowing deeply to him.

"Lumina? Who’s Lumina?" Jace whispers to Elriam as she frowns and shrugs.

"Speak." Deimos commands, his eyes never leaving me. His nose flares as he inhales my scent. Yet he controls his natural instincts with clenched fists. His wanting to protect comes first.

"The water will keep her body from heating up too much and you being by her side shall help as well. But the best solution is to mat-." Jace says as Deimos cuts him off.

"No." Deimos says as he slowly scans my body checking for external injuries, I might have caused myself.

"But Alpha, it is the best-." Elriam tries to convey her message as Deimos turns around swiftly, facing her and snarls loudly angry with her disregard of his order.

I flinch to the sound echoing within the walls of the bathroom and sob louder as if I were an afraid pup.

He quickly faces me rushing towards the tub, kneeling down. Holding my face softly in his palms he wipes my tears with his thumb. "Did I scare you, mate? I am sorry." He says gently kissing my forehead.

"I shall handle it from here. Thank you for your help." Deimos says as Jace and Elriam look at me concerned before they bow and leave.

"Hi." He speaks.

"H-Hi." I reply trying my best to smile.

His eyes scan my body once more. "You must be cold and I read once the touch of the mate helps." He says talking to himself.

He removes his clothes quickly and gets into the freezing water naked. As he sits and adjusts himself behind me, he slowly guides me so that my back leans upon his front.

"Lift up your hands." He says as I slowly lift them up with all the energy I have left. Deimos removes my shirt and my other clothing until I wear none.

The second our skin touches the flames reduce their wrath and I am finally at peace. Deimos presses my body tightly into his as his fingertips slide across my skin soothing the pain.

"Better?" He asks.

"Y-Yes." I sigh leaning my head back into the nape of his neck. Deimos kisses my hair softly.

As the silence envelopes us and my mind rests I finally come to my senses. I reposition myself to a more comfortable position and Deimos grunts gripping my hips tightly.

"Stop moving, Lumina." He whispers in my ear, his voice deep and husky.

I feel his cock straining against my back, hard and in need. He must be feeling the same pain as I am right now. The scent of a female in heat calls out to every male within proximity, especially her mate.
