Be Careful When You Bite Me novel Chapter 37

Asia had locked eyes with the claret wolf but she was whispering something under her breath. I couldn't make sense of what she was saying but it sounded like a different language. The black wolf had its eyes stationed on me. It took a step towards me and another causing me to take a couple back.

It pulled back the corners of its mouth revealing sharp canines to me.

I stumbled against a branch in the ground and fell back, hitting the ground with a thud. I heard Asia scream out loud and heard the loud sound of someone biting down.

I didn't get a second to register that the wolf could have just killed Asia. The black wolf lifted its paw and wrapped it around my leg, lifting me up in a motion that sent my head spinning and tossing me back down in a loud thud. I groaned out loud as my face made contact with something hard. I clutched my head and felt the wetness of my now bleeding forehead stain my palms. I wanted to curl up and die but I knew it wasn't going to be this easy.

I was going to get Damon killed and now I was also going to get Asia killed. I felt the blood rushing to my head as the wolf nudged me once more. It lifted its paw again, stationing it right above my face. As it went to bring it down to crush my head, something flew across my vision and tackled the paw away from me. The wolf took a couple of steps back and now averted its attention towards whoever it was that attacked it.

I sat up and looked towards Asia who was lying limp a few meters away from me. Both the black and the red wolf were now heading towards the human figure that had saved me. I attempted to wipe the blood from my face and crawled towards Asia. Her eyes were closed but she was still breathing. A claw mark ran up from the side of her face down her chest and arms. The wound was too deep for it to stop bleeding. I took off my shirt and pressed it righting against her skin in an attempt to slow down the bleeding.

"Asia!" I screamed out," Asia!"

She wasn't responding. I placed both hands on her shoulders and attempted to shake her. I turned around to watch the person who had rescued us wrestle with the wolves. I could hardly make out the outlines but from the built of the person and the silver hair I could tell it was Xavier.

The black wolf clamped its jaw down on his shoulder as he dug his fangs into the other. The red wolf struggled to get out of Xavier's bite. The wolf's body was beginning to slow down. The other wolf clawed at Xavier but he dodged the hit, taking his teeth off the red wolf and digging them into the blacks.

I turned back to face Asia who was still unconscious. I wrapped my shirt around her wounds so I wouldn't have to hold it anymore and stood up.

I turned around to see that the red wolf was now lying limp on the soil while the black wolf tore another tree and threw it towards Xavier.

I picked up Asia's small body and stumbled up towards the trees.

If I could get her to the car, I could drive her to get some help.

I was beginning to feel weaker and dizzier the more steps that I took. I struggled with the weight of Asia's limp body but I was determined to not let her die. I wasn't going to be the reason for two deaths.

I could see the car just a couple of meters away and I knew I had to keep my grip just for a few more minutes. I struggled to step over the branched and when we finally got to the car, I fumbled with Asia's pockets until I found the key.

I unlocked the door and wrestled with the car door, trying to lay her body in the back seat.

I didn't want to turn around to see how Xavier was doing with the wolves. I was too scared to witness anything that could lead to Xavier being injured as well or worse, killed.

I lifted Asia's head and sat underneath, placing it back on my lap. I removed her bloody curls that were now crimson with blood from her face.

"Asia," I uttered," please wake up." I heard the sound of footsteps and looked up to see Xavier speeding towards us. I imagined that meant he had killed the wolves but I didn't want to get my hopes high.

He halted at the car almost tore the hinges off of the door.

"Get out!" He demanded and I scrambled to do as instructed.

"We need to get her to a hospital-" I began but Xavier wasn't listening to a word I said. He had his hands on his mate's face, his blood-stained fingers send strokes down her cheeks.

To my surprise, Asia flickered her eyes open and looked up at him.

His terrified eyes flickered with relief," you're awake."

Asia let out of a small tired smile," how did you know we were here?"

"You weren't home when I got there, I put the puzzle pieces together."

"You got there just in time-"

"I should have gotten here quicker, it didn't click as quickly as it should have, you shouldn't be injured-"

Asia lifted her hands and placed her index finger on Xavier's lips, stopping him from forming his next words.

"You got here right on time, it was stupid what we did."

I almost wanted to look away at how intense their gazes were. I've never seen two people so in love besides my parents. It made sense to me now when I caught my parents looking at each other like that, that they were reminiscing on how much they had both given up to be together.

"Holly's right, we have to get you to a doctor."

"I'm alright, she stopped the bleeding," Asia looked up at me with kind eyes," the wolves?"
