The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 388

Klaus

Tying my hair up, I grab the clipboard to check the stock of medicine. Raven had always kept a thorough check of everything and if anything was running low, she would have Dane order in some. I felt like it was something I could do to keep her memory alive.

Being the new pack doctor was not in my plans, but I guess, out of everyone that Raven trained, I was the next best thing and the pack needed a doctor, especially with the amount of Wolves and Lycans here now.

Checking everything off, I make a list. I had used a lot of supplies with Mallory’s gun wound and now Maddie.

I hear the front door swing open and close, sticking my head around the corner, I see no one. I smell no one else. It must have been the wind. I was used to being alone, but somehow this place just made me feel more lonely.

Grabbing a fresh IV bag, I head to Maddie’s room, only to find her bed empty.

“Maddie?” I call out, maybe she had woken and was using the bathroom. “MADISON?”

It’s deathly silent and for a brief moment, I wonder if it's her that went through the front door. That was until I heard the small moan. Pulling open the bathroom door, she scares the shit out of me.

She’s passed out, with her face pressed against the side of the toilet, a smear of blood against the porcelain. Rolling her over, I see she has managed to rip some of her stitches. Brax is going to kill me at this rate, it wasn’t the first time she had done it and last time he had threatened to cut my dick off.

Lifting her from the floor, I carry her back to bed and set up a new IV, clean up her wound and restitch her face, hopefully Brax wouldn’t notice.

As I finish, she mutters Cooper's name. The guy that did this to her. It was worse than cruel. I thought being bound was bad enough. Then to learn that Neah was bound four times was just sickening, but this was…. There wasn’t really a word to describe it. Though he definitely deserved to rot.

Maddie starts to cough and rolls on to her side, reaching for the jug of water.

“I’ve got it.” I rush around the side of the bed before she knocks it over.

I fill the cup and pop in a straw for her. Helping her to sit up, she lets out a groan as her deep chestnut eyes find mine. “Where’s Brax?” Her words come out in a croak.

“He just had to go and help Dane, he will be back in a little bit.”

“I’m safe?”

“Yes.”
