BOUGHT BY THE RUTHLESS ALPHA novel Chapter 65

*** Alpha William P.O.V ***
 
I just kept on hoping… Wishing that we would get there in time. I wish… I wish I had listened to her when she was telling me to stay back and come to Hunter some other time. But no! I didn’t… Look what it has caused me now…
 
I sniffled and others looked at me with surprise on their face. They probably thought I was crying but I wasn’t even close to tears. This is just another bad habit of mine. I sniffle whenever I feel immense anger that I just can’t hold in anymore.
 
Whenever I feel so angry that I just have to get some of the anger out of my system… Just have to vent on something… “Aaah!!,” I was practically shouting in my head.
But I looked completely calm. I won’t waste this anger on something meaningless. I will just wait and capture that asshole. Then I will drain the life out of him slowly.
 
When I saw how slow the car was moving due to the bad condition of the road, I thought of getting out of the car and shifting instead. That way I would be able to get home faster. I am sure Mark will be more than happy to help me in saving our mate.
 
Just as I was contemplating this important decision, the car suddenly stopped. The driver looked confused. Everyone looked at each other. What the heck!? Why now?
 
We were about to get out when the sky suddenly roared and rain came pouring down. The wind was something else. Everywhere was so dark cause of the weather.
 
I buried my face in my hands. Why now? Why is it now that we have to get stranded in the middle of nowhere?
 
 
*** Alpha Jackson P.O.V ***
 
I stood by the window side and felt a little bit disappointed. Everywhere is so dark cause of the weather. Even if I already shut all the windows and doors, I can still see the reflection of the rain and the thunder coupled with the lightning.
 
I frowned and looked at the stopwatch. Did they catch Alan? Shit! I knew he couldn’t… wouldn’t make it… Gosh! I just lost a very important member of my rogue army and I lost the chance to get my Smith Bridget back to myself.
 
I looked at the stopwatch again. Somehow, deep down, I was still hoping that he managed to escape with her. But it’s been hours now since he left and the bitter truth is already so obvious that I would be a fool if I don’t accept the fact that he has been caught.
 
 
Just as I was about to put away my beautiful, special blades, I heard a low knock on the door. At first, I stood still wondering if I imagined the sound but then the person knocked a little bit louder on the door.
 
 
“Come in,” I said and the person finally entered inside. Even though I look cool and collected on the outside, I am the only one that knows how I am freaking out inside when I saw Alan at the doorstep all soaked and wet.
 
He looked drenched from head to toe but he was carrying Smith like an egg. From the looks of it, he was shielding her from the rain. I smiled and the first thing I told him is that” I am proud of you.”
 
He didn’t reply and just staggered inside. He carried her gingerly and dropped her gently on the sofa in the room. My eyes squinted a bit when I saw all his actions. Why is he acting this way?
 
Why is he acting so loving to her? Does he have a crush on her? I appeared to be deep in thought as I stared at them. But Smith isn’t beautiful. I don’t even know what attracted that pup who claims to be her mate to her. What was so attractive about her that he couldn’t resist?
 I glanced at him and narrowed my eyes when he leaned down to whisper something into her ears. I growled loudly and this caught his attention. He immediately stood up and bowed to me.
 
“Sir, I was only reliving her of the magic effects,” He said, with his head still bowed lowly. Why do I feel like he is avoiding my face?
 
Before I could say a word, he already walked out quickly. Well not without casting a pair of pitiful eyes at Smith. She sneezed and I smiled. That is a sign that she is waking up.
 
Hmm… The real fun is about to begin. I bent down and picked up the silver blades I had earlier discarded. I just have to wait for her to wake up. I just have to wait for a few more minutes.
 
*** Smith Bridget P.O.V ***
 
‘Bridget! Bridget!! Wake up… Please wake up!.’ I frowned. Isn’t that Daniella’s voice? Why does she sound so worried? Why is she shouting my name like this?
 
I looked around but flinched. It’s this familiar darkness again. Where am I now? I tried to move but my bones didn’t even give way. I discovered that no matter what I just can’t move.
 
Just then, I couldn’t hear her voice anymore. Everywhere was silent. I strained my ear but couldn’t hear anything. This agonizing silence went on for hours.
 
 I feel tired. I know I am awake but why can’t I move or even open my eyes? Then I suddenly felt myself move and I could hear raindrops. The person holding me is shivering so badly that I felt so sympathetic.
 
I wanted to talk. I wanted to ask him or her what is going on. But I couldn’t even perform any action right now like I am in a coma. Am I in a coma?
 
No, that doesn’t seem right. I remember sleeping with Daniella. I didn’t hit my head or anything so I can’t be in a coma, right?
 
I wanted to reach out when I felt how the person was freezing. Even if I can feel us moving, I can’t feel any raindrops on my body.
