The One He Claimed by cooper (Sophie and Hunter) novel Chapter 150

Chapter 150

I rush to her side, seeing Michael lying dead with a bullet wound to the head beside and partially on top of Leah.

“What happened?” I ask, quickly pulling Leah to me and checking for a pulse. Brooklyn is nearly hysterical.

“It’s my fault! It’s my fault!” she sobs.

“BROOKLYN!” I say, gently pushing my aura out to get her attention.

She jumps them looks up at me, blinking quickly.

“What. Happened?” I ask quietly and calmly.

“He came for us. Mom bought a gun and silver bullets. She knew he’d come. She put me in here with the weapons, but she protected me and then he…”

She starts to break down again into tears, but she quickly swipes her face with the back of her hand.

“He tackled her and then he was going to mark her again, forcing her back into a mate bond with him. I didn’t know…I didn’t know that if I killed him that it would kill her,” she says.

“Come with me,” I say, pushing Michael’s dead body off of Leah. I pick up Leah and help Brooklyn to her feet.

“Are you injured?” I ask. She shakes her head, but I can see her body trembling. I’m guessing she’s in shock.

“Can you walk?” She shakes her head, no, again.

I turn and crouch. “Get on my back.”

“Alpha?” she asks and when I turn, I see her frowning at me.

“Get on my back, Brooklyn. I’m not leaving you here alone. The battle is nearly over, but it’s not done yet.”

“You’re injured,” she says.

“I’ll be fine. Let’s go,” I say, authoritatively. I have no idea if Dr. Felicity can save Leah, but I know the longer

hospital, the less likely it is for her o lakes for us to get to the pack

Brooklyn finally climbs onto my back, and I stand, feeling every ache and injury in my body now that the adrenaline of the battle is starting to wear off.

‘Lucas, I need you to check in with Carter and Kayce. What’s the status on the safe rooms?‘

‘Opening them now,‘ he says. ‘Where are you?‘

‘Headed to the pack hospital with Leah and Brooklyn.‘

‘What happened?‘

‘It looks like Brooklyn killed her father,‘ I say, and I can feel the shock in him, so strong that he barely registers that Sophie is looking for me.

‘Sophie, I need you at the pack hospital. It’s Leah,’ I tell her in the mind link. She can help keep Brooklyn calm.

When I walk in, I see wolves in every stage of injury, some minor and some serious. The nursing staff is doing triage and I step up to one of

them as Brooklyn looks around.

“Mate bond?” the nurse asks.

“Yes.”

“That way, Alpha,” she says, pointing me down a hallway.

I begin striding quickly down the hallway, finding another nurse who quickly looks Leah over and guides us to a room. Brooklyn slides off my back and hobbles to a chair while I get Leah onto the bed. The nurses begin attaching her to IVs and checking her vitals.

“You can leave her with us, Alpha. We’ll do everything we can for her,” the nurse says.

“What can I do?” Brooklyn asks.

“You can stay here and hold her hand like she did with you, Brooklyn. That’s probably the best thing you can do,” the nurse says kindly.

I smell my mate before I see her. When she walks in, I turn, looking her over quickly. I realize she’s doing the same to me.

“Can you stay with Brooklyn?” I ask her.

“You’re injured,” she says.

“Nothing that Shaw can’t heal,” I tell her, walking to her and pulling her against me, taking a deep breath of her scent, knowing it will help Shaw to heal faster. “I need to go check on the warriors. Can you stay with Brooklyn?” I ask her again.

“Yes, of course,” she says, and I start to step away, but she puts her hands on my face, holding me in place.

“Take care of my mate,” she says, her eyes fierce. They’re the same words I said to her hours ago and it makes me smile. Damn I love this woman.

I kiss her quickly but the with the same fierceness I see in her eyes before striding from the room.

“Brooklyn, tell me what happened,” I hear Sophie say as I walk down the hallway, and I know my mate is taking charge and will do everything she can to ensure that Leah survives.

I stayed with Brooklyn while they stabilized her mother.

“Luna, Brooklyn, we’re going to keep her unconscious for a day or so. Her wolf will have gone silent, possibly for good,” the nurse says, looking at Brooklyn before looking at me. “As an omega, losing your mate, even one you rejected, can kill your wolf.”
