Bound To The Broken Alpha (Amy and Daniel) novel Chapter 426

Chapter 426 He Will Not Allow That

AMY

I woke up in pain.

Finished

It wasn’t sharp. It was tense and spreading, like my body had decided to shut things down one piece at a time. My head throbbed. My chest felt tight. My skin burned, then went cold, then burned again. I tried to sit up and failed. My arms shook under my own weight.

“Amy,” Mara called out quickly.

Mara was at my side before I could turn my head. Her hands were steady, but her eyes were not. She pressed her palm against my forehead and hissed under her breath.

“You’re burning again,” she said. “Don’t move.”

“I didn’t plan to,” I said, but my voice came out weak. It annoyed me more than the pain.

She reached for a glass of water, slid her arm behind my shoulders, and helped me drink. I swallowed twice before nausea pushed back.

“Slow,” she said. “Please.”

I closed my eyes and breathed through it. My wolf stirred under my skin, restless and off–balance. She wasn’t pushing to heal. She felt sick too. That scared me more than the fever.

“This is worse,” I said quietly.

Mara didn’t argue. She stood and moved toward the door.

“I’m calling the doctor,” she said. “Now.”

He arrived faster than before. Two guards came with him this time. They stayed near the door, eyes on everything, hands loose but ready. I noticed that detail even through the haze.

The doctor checked my vitals without wasting time. He listened to my heart, checked my eyes, pressed along my abdomen. His jaw tightened.

“How long has it been like this?” he asked Mara.

“She spiked again during the night,” she said. “She didn’t sleep.”

He nodded once and turned to me.

“Amy,” he said, “I need you to answer clearly. Are you dizzy?”

“Yes.”

“Nausea?”

“Yes.”

“Pain?”

“Everywhere.”

He exhaled slowly.

“That’s not an answer I like,” he said.

“Then ask better questions,” I replied.

Mara shot me a look. The doctor didn’t react. He stepped back and folded his arms.

“You are not stabilizing,” he said. “Your body is fighting something it can’t handle in this environment.”

“Say it plainly,” I said. “I don’t need comfort.”

He hesitated, then nodded.

“If you stay here, you will get worse,” he said. “Your wolf is suppressed. Your recovery is compromised. You need proper treatment.”

I stared at him. “You mean a hospital.”

“Yes.”

I let out a short breath. “They won’t allow that.”

“They will,” he said. “They’ve already approved a transfer.”

That got my attention.

“Approved?” I asked. “Since when do I get approvals?”

“Since your condition became a liability,” he said evenly.

Mara looked away.

“Where,” I asked.

“Another facility,” he said. “Controlled. Secure. Medical–grade.”

“Still a cage,” I said.

“Yes,” he replied. “But one that would get you healed.”

I pushed myself up despite the dizziness. Mara moved to stop me, then froze when I raised my hand.

“Who decided this?” I asked.

“The same person who decided you couldn’t leave in the first place,” he said. “I don’t speak to them directly. Orders come down.”

I nodded slowly. My head swam, but my thoughts sharpened.

“When,” I asked.

“Today,” he said. “As soon as you’re cleared for transport.”

“And if I refuse?”

He met my eyes. “You don’t have that option.”

Mara’s hands clenched at her sides.

Finished

I leaned back against the pillows. My chest hurts. My wolf shifted again, uneasy, weak. I hated the feeling. I hated being moved like an object. But I also knew the truth.

I was losing ground.

“Prepare me,” I said.

The doctor nodded once. “I’ll need more bloodwork before we go.”

“Do it,” I said.

He turned to Mara. “Stay with her.”

“I will,” she said immediately.

The needle went into my arm. I watched the vial fill. My vision blurred halfway through.

“You’re fading,” Mara said softly.

“I’m still here,” I replied.

“Barely,” she said.

After the doctor left, the room went quiet again. Too quiet. I focused on my breathing, counting each one to keep my mind anchored.

“They’re moving you because they’re afraid,” Mara said after a while.

“Of me?” I asked.

“Of what happens if you die on their watch,” she said.

I closed my eyes.

“That won’t save them,” I said.

“No,” she agreed. “It won’t.”

Time passed in fragments. Someone changed my clothes. Someone adjusted the IV. The guards rotated. The room felt smaller with every hour.

When the doctor returned, his face was more serious than before.

“We’re moving you now,” he said. “Your temperature is unstable.”
