Chapter 0119
My adrenaline was wearing off the more I walked. Blood had stopped running down my arm and started to dry in the summer heat. Flashes of the rogue saying to his men, went across my mind. “Catch her!” He yelled.
Who would want me? The only person that came to mind was Darin. The thought of being kidnapped
scared me s hitles s. As I walked, exhaustion filled me as I started to crash. Stepping over a log, my foot got caught and I fell on my hands and knees.
Tears started to well up in my eyes as I couldn’t hold back the small so b that escaped my l*ps. Strong hands wrapped around my waist and pulled me up and against him. Sparks erupted all over my b*dy as he placed me on his lap as he sat down on a fallen log.
Alec started to rub my back. “I’m sorry.”
His words confused me. “What do you mean?” I said looking up at him. A tear fell down my face.
“You had to kill someone. It might have been a rogue but he was still a person.”
“That is what you think is bothering me right now?” I was flabbergasted by this.
“Are you not?”
“No. That isn’t my first time killing someone. Do you not remember the car crash?”
“I do but you didn’t kill anyone, and there wasn’t a dozen of them.”
“Alec, since I known you, I have been in three different rogue attacks now. First one when Colt got ran off
the road, which I did kill someone. The second is when you got shot and I saved your as s. Now, today. I’m
not afraid of rogues. I am afraid of losing you. Seeing the rogue on your back.” I shook my head as !
looked at his bite marks. They were almost healed. I guess their teeth didnt sink all the way in like mine
did. “Alec, if I’m right, they wanted to kidnap me!”
My b*dy started shaking as I said those words. Kidnap. It was right up there with being raped as my worst
fear. “Shh!” Alec grabbed my face as tears started pouring. “I would die before I allowed you to get
kidnapped. I promised to keep you safe.” Alec wrapped his arms around me as I let the last of the terror
escape me.
Once I calmed down, Alec stood up and started walking with me in his arms. I didn’t even protest as he
carried me. It felt like forever before we reached the hospital. The cool air hit my skin, giving me
goosebumps as nurses ran forward with a gurney.
“Luna Kristen, we will get you fixed up, okay?”
“I’m fine, really. This is all unnecessary.”
“Let them do their job.” Alec sighed as he rubbed the bridge of his nose.
Sighing, I leaned back as she started pressing on my wounds. “Does that hurt?”
“I literally got bit thirty minutes ago and you are asking if the wounds hurt?” I knew I was being rather bit chy but what kind of dumb question was that.
“S-sorry, Luna.” She left the room rather quickly and another nurse took over cleaning the wounds.
“Kristen.” Alec sighed as he looked at me.
Looking over at him, his arms were folded and he was still rather pi ssed off. “I don’t want to hear it. I did what I had to do to make sure you lived. This is nothing. I’ll heal by the time prom is next week. You won’t even see the wounds.”
“Do you want to call Alpha Brian or do you want me too?”
“I guess I’ll do it.” I held out my hand, asking for a phone,
“I don’t have mine here. We will do it when I get you home.” Alec didn’t move a muscle as the nurse worked quietly on cleaning them. After giving me a shot, she nodded from her work.
“Anything broken?” She asked.
“Doesn’t feel like it.” I answered moving my arm.
“Up to you if you want me to take an x-ray or not.”
“I think I am okay.” Sighing, I just wanted to go home.
“Okay. No stitches so just try to allow them to scab over before you do anything too crazy. If you notice
any redness, come back as there might be an infection. I did give you a shot of antibiotic just in case. questions?”
