THE ALPHA'S CAPTIVE CHAPTER 98
If this surgeon is still sniffing about Amanda once Dan is better, it will be the last thing he does."You're quiet," Finn remarks as we come to a halt in front of the vending machine, releasing my arm."Please tell me you're not working out how to kill the doctor and get away with it."I cast a casual glance at the machine. I'm not interested in crappy coffee or tea. My eyes widen when I see peppermint tea.Amanda could use one of them. Also, sleep. She appeared weary, with black bags under her eyes. Still lovely, but ready to go."I'm thinking," I say quietly.The second Amanda turns her back, she plans on tearing the good surgeon apart.Finn rummages in his pocket with his hand. "I repeat myself. Please don't tell me you're plotting the doctor's demise."I cast a peek across at him. He must have just realised that the only things we stopped to get before following the ambulance to the hospital were his clothing and vehicle keys. We weren't planning on getting cash for the vending m

"They're far too violent for you," he explained. "Bed. "Let's go, squirt." He'd discovered me after I'd snuck down the stairs to peer through the bannisters at the TV."But the men take too long to fall down and sometimes they grab the wrong place on their front, so they can't be dead." I let out a sigh.As he carried me back up to bed, he chuckled. "Waiting too long to fall, huh?" How long have you been looking?"I denied ever seeing anything. He snorted at my obvious deception, kissed the top of my head, put me into bed, and then told me a tale."You sound like you might be smiling, angel," Jade adds, restoring my attention to the present."Well, I'm not," I tell myself. "You're just hearing things."He sighs once more, brings me in closer, and inhales. "Fuck, angel, I thought we'd lost you today."They should have discovered my body in the attic.Darius lost his cool over little matters such as the white wine at dinner not being cold enough. He'd lash out at one of his packmates fo

Also, if you bite Dan already and someone asks you to fill up the release paperwork at the door, well.I mumble, "We might not get him out of the hospital before he shifts.""Regular individuals don't just heal themselves; he'll start healing himself.

AmandaTWO YEARS BACKEighteen.Even though it's a little quantity, it's significant,to me, at least.I feel a stinging rain lashing me as I shudder. I've never been able to figure out why it's essential in a location as sticky as the Stationers Diner because it soaks the front of my blue and white striped dress, which is so spotless.I might have the stamina to care about the criticism I'll receive for serving customers while dressing as though I just went for a dive if it weren't today. Today, though, is distinct. Special. Even though it is a typical Wednesday afternoon with the same murky blue sky overhead.I aim for a little puddle a few feet away as I fling the unlit cigarette I have in my palm, which is just as damp as my grayish-white tennis shoes. It comes close, but falls short. Again.Stupid dude.Instead, it is reunited with its drowned relatives from earlier periods of time.The one birthday present I've wanted since my mother closed her eyes when I was six years old and no

AmandaRIGHT NOWMy ass is the target of his attention as it moves back and forth across my back. Have her returned by tomorrow night.Darius's voice is just as icy as always. He never feels anything for me. I don't have any left for him, but that's okay. no longer.My long, dark hair, which is still wet, is pulled back from my face as I stand next to the white couch wearing my five-inch red stiletto heels and the fitted black dress he has given me. I didn't bother with any makeup other than a swipe of deep red lipstick.When she's going to die, what does a female need with mascara?Felix gracefully gets up from the couch. He sets his whisky down on the glass coffee table while maintaining eye contact with me. Ropey muscles bulge and contract beneath his white shirt as he stalks towards me.Because he is so attractive, most girls would take one glance at him and then spend the next month masturbating in public. She had honey-gold skin, dark eyes with hoods, a sly grin, and thick chest

AmandaWitnesses claimed to have previously seen the red Porsche. What else would she be doing there if she weren't usually in his lap while they were having sex?My eyelids are moving."You'd think the guy would remember to at least put the cruise control on or, you know, wait until he had her in a bed," the woman said.The sole reaction is a male snort.The hotdog and onion fragrance that comes with movement that is drifting towards me is potent enough to indicate that the individual had eaten recently. Perhaps he simply couldn't wait. My face is swept by a look. I want to turn away because it is so sharply piercing. I can't say that I blame him. I would fuck a girl like that six ways from Sunday if I had one.An amused voice remarks, "That's hardly the professionalism I'd expect from a cop."As if I didn't see you ogling her tits when she was out cold, I said, "She's out cold. What the hell were you taught at the Academy?Bradley, get out of here.I was so closely snuggled in this

My right side is suddenly stabbed by a scorching pain. I gasp and open my eyes. A rough bed, white walls, and white linens. Those are the first things I take notice of.The same doctor with red hair and chocolate eyes is hunched over me.He looks down at me expressionlessly for a few seconds before removing his hand from my ribcage and backing away. The question "Still tender?"I am silent throughout.My name is Dr. Trevor.When I quickly glance at the door, it is shut. I'm no longer trapped by the sheet that was holding me to the bed because it has been ripped back. Only the needle in the back of my hand would be a problem, and then I could get away.They've left. No need to worry about police presence till you feel better.It is later than it was earlier, as evidenced by the weak light that formed dark shadows around him. If the cop smelt like hotdogs and onions, it must have been the morning or perhaps noon. Which implies that I must have dozed off or passed off.My cracked, dry li

AMANDAWould you mind eating something other than hotdogs for lunch and supper, Bradley?I had just placed the white plastic dinner plate cover on the nightstand when the familiar voice causes me to shiver.The police.Shit.My eyes flit across to the platter that Nurse Amy had just placed in my lap.She had helped me get up earlier so I could use the loo, and as soon as my legs gave out beneath me, I realized I wouldn't be able to flee anytime soon. I would have been on the ground with no concept of how to get back up if she hadn't been there.So even though I don't have any leg injuries, a week of inactivity has made me feel as though I have.She not only assisted me in using the loo, but she also got rid of the beeping device. The police are going to see the beeping equipment is gone and they'll know my condition has altered enough for them to stay, even though I still have the morphine drip needle inserted in the back of my hand."They have ketchup on them, and everyone knows that

I examine him again, unsure if I should believe that smile—or him. "That you were a decent guy in spite of it."He laughs from the bottom of his heart, throwing his head back. All unaffected and... genuine. It makes me want to laugh along with him just to see how it feels. "I will most definitely need to have words with Olivia."I cock my head, forgetting about the desire to scream for Jade to return. "Words? Is that a polite way of saying—""No euphemism." He wriggles his fingers again as if requesting permission.After a little moment, I nod once, and he takes a step forward.He's so near that the tip of my nose brushes against his chest as my knees kiss his thighs. I can't help but inhale his aroma.He smells better than I'd imagine a surgeon to smell just after surgery. Clean, with a woodsy note that might nearly be cologne."While one or two doctors in this hospital have married nurses, I have no plans for the lovely Olivia," he adds as he begins his inspection.How on earth did

"Despite its miraculous abilities, the heart is a delicate thing." There's a reason we have ribs to defend ourselves." He lowers his voice and frowns. "I know what injured your guy and brought him here. He was fortunate to have survived."Most individuals would not survive a wolf attack, in my opinion.Harley pauses for a beat as if waiting for an explanation. Nobody offers one.When he doesn't receive one, he keeps going. "With all of the damage we discovered in surgery, his recovery will be a long process, and there will be complications." I'm here to go over some of the upcoming events in the following days, weeks, and months."My fingers tighten in Jade's sweatpants as all my anxiety returns. "Months?""His heart stopped on the operating table, Jane." He stops and looks at her. "Twice."My mouth is parched. "However, you were able to save him?"Harley gives a single nod. "We have a great team in this hospital.""What complications can we anticipate?" Jade asks, less hostilely than

"Dan had died. Exactly like me. "I think the door hit us." I blink, and I'm back in the attic, watching Dan scramble for the rifle as a wolf rushes at him. "I thought I was going to watch Darius rip out his throat like—" I swallow my words.Nathan did the same thing to Simon Trevor.Simon was one of those rare treasures that a girl couldn't believe existed. A truly kind person. Someone who refused to assist me because he desired something in return. But he did it because he could. He did exactly that. And he paid with his life.I try again, clearing my throat. "I believe he wanted to make Dan suffer as much as he wanted to make me suffer." He cut Dan's breast open before leaping out the upstairs window."But not before he murmured the eight words into my ear that will haunt me for the rest of my life."You belong to no one but me, Amanda."Finn gives a blink. "He didn't take you."My head shakes. "Like I said, he likes to punish people."Finn cocks his head, his gaze narrowing. "You k

We tripped over each other to follow as they rushed him out of the attic, the house, and finally into a flashing ambulance waiting outside.“Sorry, no room,” they said when we moved to follow.None of us dared argue. Not when Dan’s heart could stop again any second.So we let the bland-faced EMTs who’d shocked Dan’s heart into beating call out a hasty direction for the hospital, slam the door shut, and then they were just…gone.A hand closes high on my right arm.I startle, whipping my head that way."Angel?” Jade’s gray eyes search my face as I search his.Dan once said he looked like a brawler, and he does. I study him, taking my time. Shaved dark hair. Intent gray eyes which dare you to look away first. A nose with a tiny bump on the slope from a break that didn’t heal right. His raw strength makes me feel stronger in a way that shouldn’t make sense, yet it does.“He’s a fighter. Like you. Like all of us. He will survive this.”I wish I could believe you.“Darius is a killer.” I an

On my left, there is some movement.With a snarl, I spin around, swiping my claw at a wolf with a piercing blue gaze who hisses in agony and bounds back, the copper tang of his blood strong in the air.Behind.I'm not sure if that was my warning or my wolf's.It makes no difference.We've already whirled around to confront the danger.The door behind me means I'm not in danger of injuring anybody who matters anything to me, so I stop battling my wolf the way I've been doing for years and start fighting with him.And our adversaries perish one by one beneath our jaws and claws.It makes no difference that others are rushing into the room, assaulting in pairs, one at a moment.It makes no difference if they pierce my flesh with their fangs or cut open my back with their claws.All that matters is that they perish.The floor is slippery with my adversary's and my own blood, but the pain is a distant second—or is it third?—to the wrath erupting within me.Then it's only me, my breathing r

"What makes breathing so important?" I inquire, disregarding the aching in my left arm. It's only been a minute, yet I'm already trying to stay up."You could have lined up the most perfect shot in the world, but what if you get excited and your breathing changes?"I thought for a moment, but I didn't have a response for him. "No."He takes two deep, leisurely breaths. But his third breath is a bit faster, and the cannon slips to the left by about half an inch. "Did you notice that?"I nod. "Breathing made you move.""Move it just enough to throw off your shot." With a body shot, you can get away with it, but with a headshot, you can miss it entirely. "Calm and control will save the day here.""Are you not angry?" I inquire, intrigued by this aspect of Dan. I had no clue he knew how to shoot, much alone be so enthusiastic about it."There is a time for rage." Isn't it when you have a pistol in your hand?" He softly presses down on my finger. "This is exactly how it should feel. Breath
