Semua Bab The Pack's Nemesis: Bab 61 - Bab 70

KennedyI’ve just sat down and laid my head on the side of Christy’s bed when there is a commotion out in the waiting room. I step out of the room quickly to see Beta Kier, Terrance, and Randall walk in with David and Slater.“What are they doing here?” I snarl. As exhausted as I am, I do not want anyone who was associated with Arlo in this hospital.“Alpha wanted them to clean up the bathroom, Luna,” Kier says.“Take them around back. I don’t want them in my hospital.”Slater scoffs and begins to turn, however, I step forward.“Problem, Slater?” I snarl, letting Echo push forward. I push the full force of my Alpha aura on him and watch him fall to his knees as his neck lifts in submission. Shock registers on his face as I prowl toward him.“I’m guessing you knew what that sick brother of yours intended to do to that poor girl, didn’t you, Slater?”“I was in the cells, Luna. I didn’t have any part in it,” he chokes out, his throat fully exposed to me.“But you did know he wanted her, d

QuirinI didn’t want to leave the hospital and Kennedy this morning, but when I heard that Slater was missing, I woke Kier and we went hunting. I’m not sure how the fuck he got out but when I return to the hospital later and realize that Terrance is there with his wife who is struggling to deliver their baby, I wonder if he was distracted and didn’t lock the door properly at the end of his shift.David was no help, swearing that he didn’t see anything because he was asleep. I used my Alpha command to make sure that he was telling the truth and he was.Slater attacked the guards on duty, knocking them out before racing off. Kier and I tracked Slater to our border, then continued on, following his trail to see if he stopped anywhere. We tracked him for about an hour before deciding to return to the pack. I don’t like it that Slater is gone, but he must have known that I was going to kill him. He and Arlo were very close. There’s no way he wouldn’t have known or tried to help cover up wha

ChristyI smell him before I open my eyes. My mate. The man who rejected me. Why is he here? Why now when I’m at my weakest?“Please open your eyes, Christy. Please. Deborah said that you aren’t under any anesthesia to keep you unconscious. You’ve been out for two days. Please open your eyes.”I open my eyes and see his red-rimmed eyes watching me closely. Relief washes over his face.“Oh, thank the goddess!” he says, pulling my hand to his lips and kissing it. “Thank the goddess. I was so worried about you.”“Why are you here?” I ask. My throat is still sore, and my voice is rough, reminding me of why I’M here. I feel the tears well in my eyes and I close them tightly. I don’t want Leo to see me cry again. He saw enough of my tears on the day he rejected me.I feel his finger gently rub against my cheek, wiping the wayward tear away.“I was worried about you, and I came to apologize.”“Apologize for what?” I ask, not looking at him.“For rejecting you. I was wrong. I see that now. And

JasperGetting this girl down the cliff was a lot harder than getting up there. I probably should have accounted for that a bit more, but I didn’t. Once Slater told me how to sneak onto the pack lands, I came right away, bringing some of my strongest warriors and I’d hit the jackpot. I hadn’t expected her to come to me. Slater said the patrols didn’t come out this way, so I had intended to climb into the pack lands and sneak to the hospital where she apparently spends most of her time. However, when opportunity knocks, I always open the door.After repelling down the cliff face, I stop to look at the girl. She was dead weight and repelling with over a hundred pounds slung over your shoulder isn’t easy. I’d slammed into the cliff several times when my body had begun to spin. When I look her over, I can see that she’s got some bumps and scratches on her head, back, and arms. She’s bleeding a lot from the head wounds, but she’s still breathing, and her heart is still beating, so she’ll li

YaraWhen Beta Kier raced into the hospital carrying a bloody and unconscious Kennedy, my heart tightened. This is twice my daughters’ lives have been at risk, only this time, there is no one else to save her but me.“Bring her in here,” I tell him, rushing into one of the surgery rooms. Now that she’s gotten more supplies, I feel confident that I have what I need to treat anyone who walks through those doors.“Tell me what happened,” I say as I begin looking her over. She’s bleeding from multiple head wounds and other places on her body. Echo must be weak if she’s not healing her.“I’m not exactly sure, Luna. We went to Jasper’s pack and he wasn’t there. We searched everywhere but Jasper hadn’t taken her there. While Alphas Warren and Connor dealt with the people in the safe rooms, we raced to Alpha Brogan’s pack.”I’m surprised that Quirin left the innocents alive. His father never did.“He wasn’t going to, but your mate intervened. I’m glad he did. I didn’t like the idea of killing
