The Alpha Who Saved Me novel Chapter 109

CHAPTER 109

I'm done. That she-bitch has pulled her last stunt, I think to myself as I lay here and hold Declan as he sleeps. I'm afraid to pull away from him because I don't want him to wake up, but I need to go. and find where they have Lila. Carefully pulling my arms away inch. by inch, I'm finally able to roll off the edge of the couch without jarring the exhausted Alpha.

I know what he's feeling, and yet I don't because I, at least, had my full senses about me and I was able to shut myself down during the assaults, whereas Declan was drugged and didn't know what was going on. The feeling of being violated is the same between. the both of us, but how, is what makes it different and how we each deal with it. Do I think of Declan as weak? Not at all, and he will be back up and taking charge once again as soon as he has this little time to himself.

When I pass his desk on the way out, I notice the paper sitting on the fax machine and happen to glance at it just to make sure it isn' t anything time sensitive. Once I see that it's from the Storm River Clinic, I can't help but be nosey. Without touching the paper, I can read the test results and I see red all over again. Not only did she drug him with a hallucinogen, but she used a very potent performance drug on him as well. No wonder he couldn't fight it with just the hallucinogen, she had him horny and prepared.

I'm very quick and quiet as I leave the room to go in search of the she-devil, herself. When I get to the kitchen, I find the head cook preparing the day's lunch with a few helpers. I don't want to interrupt their preparation, but I need a couple of answers and so I move to where the cook is stirring something in the big pot on the stove.

"Hey, sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if you could answer a few questions for me." I smile warmly.

The older she-wolf returns my smile, "Of course, Luna Quinn.”

"First of all, where might I find your Luna?" I ask in the politest way.

The other woman scowls, "The 'Luna' is in the back shower room, being scrubbed at the moment, Alpha's orders."

I can't tell if she's upset because how their Luna is being treated or because of something else, so I tread lightly, "Why do you seem upset?"

"Upset? That doesn't even begin to cover how I'm feeling at the moment! If I were Alpha, that she-bitch would have been tossed a long time ago." She huffs, "I really don't like to speak ill of anyone, but that woman..."

I place my hand on her shoulder, "We are going to figure something out, no worries."

Firming her lips, the head cook nods, "You had another question?" She asks me.

"Yes. I was just wondering if anybody saw the Luna by your Alpha's food at all yesterday."

"I didn't, Luna Quinn, I'm sorry. In fact, the Luna was in her room most of the day. I saw her first thing in the morning, here in the kitchen, but she wasn't preparing any food."

Another soft voice speaks up, "I saw her here when I was preparing the Alpha's tray for his evening meal."

I glance over to the shy-looking, young she-wolf, "Was she left with his food at all?"

"As a matter of fact, yes. She said she would help me prepare his tray and asked me to go to the utility closet for the cover. When I came back, she was already making her own plate of food." The young wolf looks as though she's about to cry.

I go to her and take both her upper arms in my hands while I make her look at me, "There is nothing to be upset about. You were doing your Luna's bidding. This is all on her, okay?"

The she-wolf nods but still looks upset, "Okay."

I look between the two women and thank them for the information before leaving them to finish preparing the warrior's lunch. Making my way back towards the back of the pack house to where the community shower rooms are, I can already hear the bitch's annoying voice as she cusses out whoever is in there with her.

As I turn the corner, I notice Carter standing outside the door, scrolling through his phone. The moment he senses me, though, he puts it into his pocket and pushes himself away from the wall.
