The Alpha's Appetite

The Whole Truth

**Ryan's PoV**

I growled as the men threw me down right on the edge of Ryker's territory. They just laughed and spat at me.

"What a waste of a man. Crying over someone he could never have."

I snarled at them.

"You're wrong! I could have had her!"

They just laughed as they walked away from me. I was too weak to do anything. All I did was lie on the cold ground, hoping someone would sense me and come find me. I had to help Lizzy. I got her in this mess... I groaned as I tried to move. My senses starting to come back to me. I heard paws hitting the ground. They found me... I turned to see Ryker's wolf standing over me.

His wolf leaned his head down growling as it saw me before it shifted back into Ryker. He growled as he reached down and picked me up.

"EXPLAIN YOURSELF!"

He yelled out at me making me wince as I felt his aleph aura hit me.

"I-I thought I could help her.... I didn't want you to hurt her... I can explain everything. Just please. Hear me out."

I shivered as my body started turning cold and my eyes fluttered a bit.

"I need a hospital..."

I saw Ryker nod as his men moved towards me taking me to the pack hospital. I groaned before I passed out right before getting there.

**Ryker's PoV**

Well it wasn't Ryan who was sleeping with Lizzy... She was being hurt. I felt it again as we found Ryan. I growled as I paced the hospital waiting for him to wake up.

"Alpha, he is awake and asking for you."

A nurse at the hospital said as she approached me. I growled a bit as I walked into his room and saw him. He looked in rough shape. He had a painful look on his face.

"Ryan.."

"Ryker... I need you to know... Before I tell you what happened.... I wasn't thinking straight..."

I nodded as he looked at me with sorrow in his eyes. He meant every word.

"It's okay. Just tell me where my Lizzy is..."

He sighed as he sat up a bit more wincing in pain. I placed a pillow behind his back and he nodded at me in thanks.

"That... Alpha. Alpha Sin. He tricked me... He promised me the one thing I knew I couldn't have. He had me believe every word. He knew so much about my past. He used it against me. He told me about his mate. Well, that she died. I don't believe how he explained it... No one's wolf could live after killing their mate."

I growled a bit.

"His mate killed herself. Over me. What he told you was mostly correct. I've heard the story he tells from other alphas. What did he promise you and why?"

Ryan looked down, then back up at me.

"Don't hate me. But... He promised me Lizzy... I actually had a mate a few months back... I rejected her, for Lizzy.. He told me you would hurt her. And at that moment... I believed him..."

"What is he doing to her?"

He sighed at me.

"You feel what he's doing to her. I tried to stop him. They beat the s**t out of me, then shot me with wolfsbane. He was using me to control her. Even though she's not in love with me like that... He knows she loves me... They held a silver knife to my throat, told her if she didn't enjoy it... They would kill me.... They are literally forcing her into liking that goddess' forsaken bastard."

I snarled. Ryan jumped, obviously scared of me. But it's not him I'm mad at. I am going to kill that fucker.

"Ryan. Thank you for telling me this. Honestly, now get some rest. I forgive you.."

He relaxed a little.

"Ryker.... Bring Babygirl back to us. She doesn't deserve this."

He shut his eyes as I nodded at him. I will bring her back. She will be back in my arms in no time.

**Lizzy's PoV**

I groaned a bit as I began to wake up. I looked around confused. I was no longer suspended from the ceiling. I was in bed in a room. I went to move when I realized my hands were chained to the bedposts. I sobbed a bit to myself. This man has done more to me than anyone. He took my virginity away. He is suppressing Iris, and hurting my best friend and mate.. I had to get out of here.

"Ryker... Please find me..."

I whispered between sobs. I needed my mate to find me. I prayed to the moon goddess to help me. I hope she hears me. I shut my eyes tightly as I heard footsteps coming down the hallway. My sobs came out louder as the door opened and I tried to scoot back. It was the man who kidnaped me. It was a woman.

"Ah. Don't worry, Luna. I'm here to help you bathe."

I looked at her baffled. She was an omega maid.

"L-luna?"

"Yes ma'am, the Alpha informed me to come wash his Luna. Alpha Sin enjoys a well dressed, clean Luna for the marking ceremony.."

I gasped as the woman unlocked my cuffs around my arm and led me to the bathroom. This man is going to try and mark me as his Luna. I tried to fight the woman but I was too weak. She pulled off my robe and helped me into a warm bath that was already running when we came in.

"Ryker..."

I sobbed as the woman began cleaning me, the blood off my legs and wounds from the rope around my wrists.
