Chapter 283

Elaine nodded, then closed her eyes again. She could almost feel it in her body. She didn’t have a lot of time. Not enough to hesitate.

Liam pulled up outside the address, looking down at the scribbled writing Dr. Howard had jotted down. Being here didn’t sit well with him, but he didn’t have a choice.

“I can’t believe this…”

“He won’t recognize you,” Elaine said from beside him. She looked out the window of the car. She was feeling worse than when she woke up, but had still come. The hospital couldn’t do anything for her.

Not if she continued to deteriorate like this.

Liam drummed his fingers on the steering wheel. “You don’t get out for anyone.

“I know.”

“I’ll be back as soon as I can,” Liam said, opening the door and stepping out.

“Don’t get killed.”

Liam closed his eyes and took a breath. “I won’t be.”

He closed the door and stepped away from the car. He walked down the streets, hands shoved into his pocket. As he rounded the block, he looked up at the small building beside the warehouse. Elaine had been here not that long ago. Getting shot at.

Now he was here trying to get medication from the guy who’d shot at her.

He pinched the bridge of his nose. This was such a bad idea. But with her life barely hanging on by a thread in the seat of his car….he couldn’t just do nothing and watch her die.

If this was the price, he had to pay it.

Liam walked closer, and a guard stepped forward.

“Woah, woah, woah. You’re an Alpha. You don’t got much reason to be in a place like this,” the man said. Tangled brown hair hung over his eyes.

Liam tilted his head, watching the stern expression of the other. “I got plenty of reason. And plenty of money. Do you want to be the one to tell your boss you turned down a hundred–thousand–dollar sale just because I was an Alpha?”

The gamma swallowed.

“Step aside.” Liam used every ounce of the instinctual authority of an Alpha he had, and the guard could sense that sort of power. He stepped aside.

Liam walked forward, pushing the door open and stepping into a room of at least a dozen others. He sighed heavily as about half of them were drawing weapons on him.

“Easy, I’m here to purchase,” Liam said.

“He’s a cop,” one of them muttered.
