The Son of Red Fang by Diana Sockriter novel Chapter 399

Chapter 399

1 take a deep breath and let it out slowly as 1 look at her. I reach my hand out towards her just to

hesitate halfway there.

“It’s okay to touch me.” She whispers as more tears stream down her face.

“I know this is a lot to take in, Cole. So I’m not going to push the conversation right now, but I need you to meet with Angel so she can explain the process your father will have to go through in order to make you a feral. I need you to come to terms with what being labeled a feral means as well as how much time you have to plan your escape.” Alpha explains.

“How much time do I have?” I can’t help but ask as I finally swipe my thumb across Jessa’s cheek.

“If Alpha Redmen gets everything perfect the first time, which is very rare, then it will take three months to a year from the time they accept the application.”

I nod my head silently as Jessa leans into my hand and as nervous as it makes me to touch her I

don’t ever want to leave.

After lunch with alpha, Jessa somehow convinced me to come back to her apartment. At the moment, I loved the idea but now that I’m standing in her living room, my mind has gone insane. I have never, and I do mean never, been completely alone with a lady before. The closest I’ve ever

been was when I was dating Rachel and Rebecca and even then I left in a hurry when they wanted to

get intimate with me.

“Are you okay?”

Jessa’s voice breaks through the fog consuming my brain. I look up briefly from the floor as she walks in with a glass of tea in one hand and a bottle of water in the other.

“I haven’t drank from either. I wanted to give you the choice. I know we haven’t spent much time

together.”

I nod before reaching for the water. We notice the tremors in my hand at the same time causing me to chicken out of taking the drink from her. I walk to the sliding glass door on the south east side of

her apartment instead.

Like most of the buildings I’ve managed to step inside, this one runs long ways from south to north. She called this building the medical dorms where the majority of the single medical personnel that work in the wing reside. I’ve only managed to come ten feet inside but Jessa said it’s a comfortable 700 square foot single bedroom apartment and hers is on the ground floor.

I look out towards the tree line as storm clouds loom overhead. I’m lost in a mild trance as a loud

crack of thunder rattles the ground beneath my feet.

Chapter 399

“I’ve already taken a quarter of Ativan. I tend to get super nervous around alpha males as they were the main ones to abuse me whenever I was in a pack.”

Her statement combined with the thunder startles me badly and it takes a moment for me to start breathing again.

“At least that’s how it was before Alpha Pierce found me.”

“Has alpha ever hurt you?”

I can’t help but think the worst after such a statement and the answer will make or break the beast-

raging within me.

“No. Alpha Black is tough yet incredibly gentle and kind. He will challenge you, make you believe

that he’s like the rest. I was beyond scared when I finally met him two weeks after I traveled here

with Alpha Pierce. His son and his friends were in a bad wreck. Beta Parker was accidentally brought

to the wing when he should have gone straight to Crimson General. I contradicted Dr. Morrison

when she gave him a sedative. The head injury he had sustained caused him to be combative and the

heart and oxygen monitoring had not been put on him yet. The wing was crazy that day and Alpha

Damian’s wreck didn’t help so we were short handed and behind on what needed to be done.

When I alerted them to his failing heart rhythms Dr. Morrison got angry which set me up for some

really bad triggers. I contradicted her again when Dr. Morrison released Alpha Damian from the

wing. Alpha Black still took Alpha Damian to his office only to return an hour later. Even though I

had used it several times that night to warn Dr. Pierce and Dr. Morrison of pending bad outcomes, it

was with Alpha Damian that I had no choice but to use my gift. I’ve always seen it as a curse as it’s

the reason every alpha has abused me, treated me as a feral after my parents died.”

I stiffen up as she places her hands on my back, low on my hips. I shift my feet si

to admit to my discomfort with the contact/she’s made with my body.
