2022-04-27 17:57:12Alexandria POV
As I register what’s going on I can see that Dean is losing and his movement is somewhat sloppy, they are rolling on the floor till they hit the wall near me on my left leaving me between them and the kitchen counter.
I see the other man that I now sense is a rogue, on top of Dean who can barely fight him off.
The rogue raises his hands with claws out aiming for Dean’s throat so I instinctively grab a kitchen knife from the counter on my right and get between the two stabbing the rogue in the heart as his clawed hand slashes my torso “ahhhh, son of a bitch” I grunt out as I lean on the wall.
It takes more than this for me to fall; I won’t fall… so I’m just leaning now.
In a blink I see Derek in front of me with panic on his face trying to reach for my wound but I swat him off,
“I’m okay, it’s just a scratch don’t be over dramatic” I say through gritted teeth because it hurts to even talk but I’m not telling him that.
He needs to stay away and I need to get away. I can hear Dean apologizing to me and Derek.
Why apologize to Derek I’m the one who got slashed but whatever. “I m sorry Luna , I’m sorry alpha, he got me with wolf’s-bane that’s why I wasn’t as fast or as strong “Dean keeps repeating his apologies and explanation while he is trashing my already trashed place searching for something ... I guess first aid or something?, all while Derek remains silent and just glares daggers at him as he keeps trying to reach for my wound with one hand and support me with the other.
“Found this “Dean comes rushing towards us with some clean cloth that I don’t know where the fuck did he find.
” I said I’m fine, you two need to get the fuck out now and leave me the hell alone, I’m sure someone called the cops by now” I say as I push off Derek trying to reach my bag But he grabs my wrist.
“Enough woman, why the fuck are you so stubborn. You are bleeding and rogues just tried to attack you, I’m not leaving without you and you need medical attention” he says getting angry now.
I look down and see that my hoodie and even my jeans are completely drenched with my blood and I’m starting to get really dizzy, it’s getting harder to breath.
“I can’t go with him and I can’t go anywhere like this, I can’t even stand straight or on my own” I think to myself.
I look at Dean, “Luna please, he will kill me if anything happens to you” Dean says with pleading eyes.
I really have no options here. I barley nod before I can’t feel the ground underneath me anymore. Everything starts getting darker and the floor gets nearer. “Jessica” I hear Derek yell before I feel his arms around me and my last thought is “who the fuck is Jessica ... Oh yes that’s me”
I hear voices but it’s muffled. I can feel myself lying on a bed and it smells like some medical facility... a hospital?, oh no, i hate hospitals, the last time i was in one i lost my baby, i have to get up,I try to open my eyes but I’m too tired.
The voices become clearer now as I recognize Dean’s and Derek’s voices arguing.
“I’m not getting out of here before she wakes up Derek”
“I’m not telling you to get out because I’m mad at you, I’m simply saying you need to head to your room and rest or tend to your… scratches? Or whatever”; head to his room? We must be at their pack!
“Come on Derek, how many times I have to apologize?”
“You want an answer? Fine. When you can convince me how a rogue can get the upper hand on you beta Dean, son of an alpha, top warrior of the strongest pack of the region?” Okay he is just being a dick now.
The dude explained a 1000 times before I fainted and I’m sure he explained a 1000 more since, that the damn rogue stabbed him with wolf’s-bane syringe while they were crashing through my window.
“Stop being an asshole” it came out of me hoarse and strained. “Jessica! You’re up” Derek said happily as he came to my bed side “argh! I hate that name”.
“Then what do you like me to call you?” he asked and I stupidly answer
“By my name duh”
“But I thought that was you’re name” wait! Did I just say all of that out loud? FUCKING anesthesia didn’t wear off completely I assume.
“She is just full of surprises this one” Dean commenting in the back and getting a growl from Derek in response
“What’s your real name mysterious mate?” Derek asked.
“Why won’t you lay off poor Kenny? He was drugged with wolf’s bane and it was my choice to help him. It’s not like he is the one who hurt me?” I say attempting to divert the subject.
“He shouldn’t be easily drugged in the first place and as a result he got his Luna hurt” Derek retorted
“Am I suppose to be Kenny here??” Dean asked.
“Yes, as in ken doll” I answered to a now scowling Dean.
“Derek you are not really mad at your brother. You are just diverting your guilt coz you think that you didn’t get to me on time, but you are forgetting that I m the one who chose to get between them, you couldn’t of predicted that.” I say looking straight into Derek blue eyes ... oh do I love those eyes.
“Okay, I officially love her” says Dean grinning.
“Get out Kenny, Now.” Derek yells at him.
“What the fuck? Is this going to be my nickname now?” Dean asked annoyed and got yet another growl from Derek.
“Okay okay I’m leaving but don’t forget to ask her what’s her real name is” that asshole!
“That’s pay back for the Kenny shit that apparently is going to stick” Dean says with a smirk.
“Now I regret saving your life” I say glaring at his back as he gets out of the room waving his hand goodbye saying “no, you don’t”.
I look back at Derek who is raising one eyebrow waiting for me to answer, I guess I got nothing to lose, my plans are already fucked and I do miss my name, No one will recognize or expect me to be here anyways.
“Alexandria ... My name is Alexandria”. “That’s a beautiful name, much more fitting ... Strong and beautiful just like you” he says with a genuine smile and I blush, he seems to be the only one who can make me blush ... Luke used to make me blush too.
My expression changes as guilt consume me.
“I’m tired ... I think I’ll just sleep now” I tell Derek.
“Is something wrong? Did I say something wrong?” Derek says confused and a little hurt.
“No, I’m just sleepy. I guess the anesthesia still didn’t wear off” I say sliding into bed.
“okay, I’ll let you rest but I’ll be nearby if you need anything” he says with a small smile and I just nod and close my eyes and let myself drift to all the memories I shared with Luke and how I was easily betraying him.

Dylan POV “He is close. Change location. Stay hidden” I read the message on her phone before it locks. “Alpha, you need to come back here now” I mind link Derek While the doctors take care of Alexandria. Just few minutes and a disheveled half naked Derek comes running through the hallway, he finds me standing outside her door and stops right in front of me with a panicked face trying to catch his breath “What happened? Is she okay” he asks and tries to go past me into the room but I stop him, “She is resting, the doctors said not to disturb her; they say it could be post surgery stress and that this happens sometimes”. Derek sighs and shuts his eyes “It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have pushed her that far when she is in that condition”. “It’s not you or the surgery Derek; I think it was a panic attack” he looks at me in confusion and I explain about the message I read and how it scared her enough into a panic attack , she doesn’t seem like the type to scare easily.

Alexandria POV It’s been four days since I arrived to this prison… I mean the hospital room. I’m bored as hell. The doctors are checking me now; Dean, Dylan and Sophia are here too. “So, what’s the verdict?” Dean asks. “She is healing surprisingly well, I assumed she would need more time, she can be discharged today but to be safe let’s make it tomorrow” the doctor says. I couldn’t stop myself before I grabbed the doctor from his collar pulling him towards me, our noses practically brushing, and yell in his face “I’M GETTING OUT TODAY”. The poor guy looks like he is about to piss himself. “Alexandria let go of the nice doctor” I feel Dean’s hand on mine trying to pry the doctor out of my hold “We will get you out, just let the poor man live” Dean continue talking to me calmly as if I’m a mental patient, I guess at this moment I am, I slowly let go of the doctor and he scatters away toward Dylan and Sophia who are trying so hard to hold their laughter in. “I think she

Because it’s sure as hell not mine. This is killing me, and it’s not for your best either, you want this, don’t try to deny it… so is i

Derek POV We finish the battle and capture few alive. something is not right with this attack, no wolf, rogue, or not, dared to attack us for years now and to actually be with hunters? I pause on that thought for now and make sure all my men are alright before I head back to the pack house, I need to see her, to make sure she is okay “Move faster, human” My wolf Rex keeps nagging me. “If I move any faster people will know something is up and we don’t want them to know about her yet, you idiot” “I don’t care I need to see mate” “What will you do when we reject her like she wants?” Rex lets out a furious growl that I actually had to hold my head from the pain . “We are not rejecting her and she is not leaving, even if we have to mark her and make her ours forever” “No, you mutt, we will not forcefully mark her that’s not how we treat women and specially not her” “We can’t let her leave us, it’s the only way” He is not just a wolf, he is an alpha wolf and can’t always r

Derek POV “Because I am one, a hunter… a pure hunter” she said and my world stops for a second. I knew this was going to be the answer when I asked the question but I hoped, I prayed to the goddess that she would answer differently. that can’t be, I can’t be mated to a hunter, the killer of my kind, no wonder she was not fazed by the knowledge of our existence and she didn’t give a shit that I’m an alpha, she was right all along we can’t be together… Why? Just why would the moon goddess do that to me? Haven’t I been through enough? I feel Rex is trying to crawl out as my rage grows, I look around and I see everybody’s shocked faces. I stand up and slam my fist to my desk splitting it in half, I’m breathing heavily as I’m trying to control my wolf but he is on the surface, my eyes are pitch black and my voice comes out deep and guttural “GET OUT” Dylan instinctively takes a protective stance in front of Alexandria and he is right to do so because I don’t know what I would do

Alexandria POV I’m back in the damn hospital bed again, I hate hospitals with passion all it brings is bad memories. I groan as I try to get out of bed “hey, easy there you had a concussion” Dylan says as he tries to stop me. “It’s okay I’ll heal fast; I just need to get out of here… where is my bag?”I push Dylan aside and start searching for my bag but I feel a little dizzy and I lean to the wall to brace myself. “Where do you think you are going?” I hear Dean’s voice coming from the doorway. “to talk to your dipshit brother and leave” I see my bag, I take a deep breath and push myself of the wall and go grab it. I notice Sophia standing in the corner with her arms crossed and trying as hard as she can not to look at me, I guess she is upset… they must all be upset, even angry that their Luna is a fucking hunter but they can’t do anything about it because I’m still- like it or not- their alpha’s mate and I actually like these people, they have been nothing but nice to me, I ta

Alexandria POV “The papers are taking more time, stay where you are” Max texted me, I clench my jaws in frustration, will I always be on the run? Will I always be scared? “You can stay here as long as you want even after the rejection, you’ll be safe here” Derek says gently. More of his pity… at least he is not trying to kill me now. I thank him then grab my bag and head to my room, as soon as I close my door I fall to my knees and break down crying. It’s the first time I said what happened out loud, the first time I ever tell anyone… I feel my heart breaking all over again, not like it was ever whole, ever since that night. I can hear Luke’s voice as he said his last I love you, I can still feel Aurora kicking inside my womb, I can see Leila jumping up and down in excitement at our wedding and his parents smiling at me for the first time when they found out I was carrying a girl... and I can smell the smoke of the houses burning down that night... the screams... the tears and t

Alexandria POV It’s been a couple of days since the guardians’ ball, Sophia is getting released from the hospital today , Derek still refuses to read the letter his mother left , I don’t know if it’s denial or is he mad at her for leaving them yet again.Dean on the other hand, is taking it harder than I anticipated, he never showed any emotions for the woman or that he cared about her, it was quite the opposite, but now, I guess he feels sorry for her, for what she’s been through, maybe the letter made him understand her more… and eventually forgive her.As for Dylan, he didn’t leave Louis’s cell until the day after, there were hardly anything for us to bury, not that it mattered anyway, Derek ordered for his remains to be scattered somewhere far away outside the pack borders for vultures to feed on… fitting end if you ask me.The pack is somewhat accepting me, it’s either because I’m the guardians’ sister or because I defended them during the attack, or maybe both, I don’t care as
