The Alpha Who Saved Me novel Chapter 156

Chapter 6

"Do you mind explaining why I walk in and find my mate looking like she belongs in some kind of horror picture?" Declan growls.

"Well, I love you too, babe!" I respond sarcastically before going back over to the male laying lifeless in the bed. For some reason, I' m finding myself being concerned with his well-being. I take his hand once more, but there is nothing.

Declan squints his eyes at me, "Do I need to be jealous of this stranger?"

"Ledger." I go back to staring at him.

"Excuse me?" My mate asks with a voice laced with annoyance.

"His name is Ledger Hastings, and he is the son of the head of the Shikari." All of a sudden, I'm ripped away from him once again.

"What the fuck is going on in that ever-loving mind of yours, Quinn?"

"Will you please stop man handling me?" I glare at him, "There is nothing wrong with me. You wanted me to practice my magic, and I'm trying to, but you keep disrupting the process!"

"What are you talking about, and how do you know who he is?"

Glancing at the patient one more time, I pull my mate out into the hallway to explain what has taken place. Surprisingly, he listens to everything I have to say without interrupting, not once! It's all I can do to keep the excitement in as I begin to realize that I have a fucking awesome power! Granted, it's not so good seeing that

someone wants us all dead, especially me, but we will handle that when the time comes.

"So, you're saying that you were able to see a conversation that this guy had with his dad at one point, and then also see into the future?"

"I don't really know if the conversation was in the past or if it's in the future, but the dream, that's got to be in the future. Why I saw it when I was touching him, I'm not quite sure."

"Maybe he's the one hunting you?" My mate growls and glares into the room.

I chuckle, "It's not him, the person was unfamiliar to me. Ledger is no longer unfamiliar."

"Oh really?"

I gasp and slap Declan's chest playfully, "It's not like that, and your

know it!"

He pulls me against him, "Why did you sneak away this morning? You know how I hate waking up without you by my side."

"I know, and I'm sorry. I couldn't sleep and I would have just woken you up with my tossing and turning."

"I don't believe you."

"Believe what you want, babe, but I honestly couldn't sleep." I sigh.

He pushes me gently against the wall and presses a kiss to my lips, deepening it when I begin to respond. When he pulls away, he rests his forehead against mine, "I was really hoping to continue where we left off last night."

"Left off? You made love to me for three whole hours. I lost count at how many times I came for you!" I grin.

"Yeah, that was pretty amazing, but I can never get enough of you. Even now, I want to take you into a room and have my way with you." He starts nibbling on my neck.

"I truly hope you do not act on your urges, Alpha." The good doctor chuckles.

I shove my mate away, laughing, "No worries, Doc. I have better willpower than he does."

"The females usually do, Luna." Jonah chuckles, "Anyway, I'm happy to see that you are still here. The patient's blood work came back, and I must say, I'm not sure what to make of it."

"What do you mean?" I ask.
