All My Love~ S.TW [3]

{47} Practice Makes Perfect

3rd Person POV

The next morning, Derek was trying to figure out a way to save Cora yet still help the others.

He was taking Cora's pain away the pain started to go through his body all the way up to his neck.

"Careful." Peter said to him making Derek let go of Cora's hand

Derek replied, "Don't worry, I know going too far could kill me."

Peter responded to him, "That's not exactly what I meant."

"What are you talking about?" Derek asked him

Peter replied, "I've heard it's something only an Alpha can do and with good reason."

"Which is?" Derek asked looking at him

Peter said to him, "You know, normal wolves never abandon an injured member of the pack. They care for it. They bring food from a kill and they regurgitate it into the mouth of the injured wolf. They even give it physical and emotional comfort by intensely grooming it. In a way, they can do more than just ease the pain. They can be instrumental in healing their own."

"If you're trying to tell me, I can save her. Just tell me." Derek said back

Peter replied, "I'm telling you, I've heard it's possible."

"How?" Derek asked him

"It's that spark of power that makes you an Alpha. When you take her pain, she draws on the power that provides you with those special gifts. The power that heightens your senses, your strength. The power that transforms your body. As an Alpha, you have that bit of extra, that spark intensifies the color of your eyes from a bright yellow to a searing red." Peter said to him

Derek replied, "If I can save her-"

Peter interrupted saying, "If. I didn't say it works every time. It could just as easily kill you. "

Derek looks at Cora and asked, "How do I do it? By taking her pain?"

"And then some. Because there's a cost." Peter said to him with a smirk on his face
