Chapter 209
Hector POV
The car just about gets us to the main central area of the pack, it had been hit hard when it collided with the tree and the engine gives out.
Escorted into the Red Thorn pack, I don't give the warriors an opportunity to open the car doors before I am in the back seat pulling Kaia out. Judging by their wide eyes they didn't realise my Luna was unconscious in the back seat and that's exactly how it should be.
With her body held tightly to my chest, I move towards the alpha house...bursting through the hallway.
My aura heavy and thick as the staff members squeal, their eyes landing on my Luna in my arms before they run away.
I burst through the alpha's office not waiting to be invited in, his own warriors following behind me. Struggling to keep up. Alpha Antonis sits at the desk looking down upon maps, the person next to him the last person I would expect to see. Than.
"What are you doing here?" I growl out, his eyes flickering to my mate in my arms.
"Alora sent word that you were both in trouble, I'm here to help."
"Help?"
"Yes Hector, help!"
"I don't need your help, and neither does my mate." I bark, getting ready to leave.
"Alpha Hector, I can see your manners haven't changed." Alpha Atonis grunts as he remains seated. The thick feel of distain oozes through me at this man. "Alpha Antonis, I need to borrow a car and will be gone within minutes." I hate the prospect of owing him a favour, of having any links to him.
"You aren't going anywhere boy, not until your female has been checked over."
"I'll be damned if I trust you with my mate."
"Because she looks so healthy right now..." He chuckles as his eyes peer up just enough to scan Kaia in
my arms.
"Take her to the hospital..
"No." I growl out.
What I do with my mate is my business."
"1 can smell wolfsbane and silver, so get her to the hospital before it is too late. Don't let your superiority
of yourself get the better of your mate. We don't want a repeat do we boy." His eyes burn into mine. He hates me and the feeling is mutual.
"Hector..." Than clears his throat, taking a step towards me.
""Don't Than."
"You think I will let your pack doctor's touch my Luna.."
"I'm not running the pack any more." He grunts.
"Then who is?"ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"Me." A deep voice answers from behind me.
My head darts to the office door to find a male covered in tattoos smoking a thin cigar leaning against the door frame.
His dark eyes light up when he takes a drag on the cigarillo. His eyes roaming the female in my arms.
Orpheus.
The last time I saw him he was a shitty teenager causing problems for his father. A smirk leaves me as I remember the time I had to take the blame for him to stop him being whipped by his own father.
The male now standing in front of me was anything but a snotty shitty teenager, this was lean alpha who looked like he wanted to rip my head off.
"Alpha Hector, it's been a while."
"Orpheus, contact the Doctors, tell them to prepare a room." His eyes burn at his own father as he drags on his cigar.
A fire burns in his eyes when he looks at this male before him, before his head tilts to look at Kaia...his eyes glazing over into a mind-link. "Already done."
"I already told you...." I start to seethe through gritted teeth.
"You are on my pack grounds now Alpha Hector, my word is law here...shall we?" Alpha Orpheus places a hand out gesturing for me to follow him.
I wouldn't be able to explain what had happened to Kaia, not without revealing her secret identity. Which I will not be doing.
"Fine, but I remain with her at all times." I let my command circulate around the room, there would be no other choice. His doctors can check her but that is all, to them she will be exhausted from the sedation and wolfsbane.
"I can allow that." His eyes burn heavily into mine now before his eyes dart to my own arms that were covered in burns from the silver chains. Burns that will leave their mark on my skin.
"It seems you are both lucky to be alive Hector.".
