Chapter 19

Aziz

I am pushing her away but I would rather do that than put her life in danger. She could get mad at me all she wants as long as she’s safe and it’s better that way. The moment I found her, telling everyone in the diner that she was mine was all I wanted to do. I didn’t want anyone to come near her, especially that human guy that was proposing to her. No, I can't let her stay there and my decision on bringing her into the pack seems reckless, but that’s what I want as well.

Hera was with her and I’m sure Reeves will take care of her in the pack hospital so she will be fine. When I was with her and she was pushing me away, I was really hurt. It was painful, but I know it’s for the better. Anyway, she’s mad at me not because of me, but because of what I am. She would have loved me instantly if I were not a wolf and a vampire. I cannot do anything about it though. That's what and who I am. When everything is alright, I will try my best to woo her.

It was almost midnight and I still couldn't sleep, so I decided to go and take a look at her. Reeves' mind linked and told me that she was asleep so she won’t be able to see me and get mad at me in the end. Just a look, I'm sure worthy of it. To have a peek at my mate.

I move faster than the others, just like Hera, with vampire speed, so I get to the pack hospital in no time. I don’t usually use this ability because I didn’t want any of my pack members to think that their alpha, the one leading a pack, was more of a vampire than a wolf. ‘Shit! Alpha, come here!’ I received a mind link from Reeves,

‘Almost there,’ I replied and wanted to ask him about what was going on, but I'd decided not to since I was already inside the hospital on her way to her hospital room. “Ahhhh..” Mica screamed,

“What happened?” I asked as soon as I reached the door. Mica was screaming and the doctor and nurses were holding her up while Reeves didn’t know what to do.

“I don’t know, Alpha. She was just sleeping and so was I. Then I was woken up by her scream. I thought she was hurt or something so I called the doctor.”

“Doctor, what's going on?”

“I don't know either, Alpha. All her vitals are good and the machines that were attached to her were all working just fine.” the doctor replied worriedly.

“Move away,” I said and they all did except those who were holding her. I looked at her neck and saw that her veins were turning purple. She should be fine. I had no idea but I needed Hera. I had to know what was happening inside her mind. “Get Hera, now!!!” I commanded Reeves and he rushed out.

It didn’t take very long and my beta was back with my sister and Carter. I asked the hospital personnel to leave the room because I didn’t want them to know about Hera’s ability. “Do it now,” I said,

“I thought you didn’t want me to—”

“Just fu****g do it, Hera!” I exclaimed and she smiled. This is not even the time for that and yet she still did it to let me know that I needed her ability. I was holding on to Mica trying to stop her struggling as my sister tried to get in her mind. I just hope that she will be able to catch on to anything.

The three of us waited and I saw how Hera’s face changed, as if she was seeing something horrible. I looked at Mica and she was still writhing in pain or whatever. She was crying now and so did my sister. What was going on?

“Tell the doctor to give her something that will calm her first,” Hera said, and Carter went out of the room to call the doctor. “You didn’t manage to get anything from her past when you took out the venom?” she asked,

“I was focused on making her better, I didn’t think about anything else. The venom could kill her if I didn’t act immediately.” I replied, and then the doctor came in and injected something into Mica. I said thank you before I let him leave the room again.

“She was seeing the vampire's memory and she saw all those people who had died because of him. Young, old, males, females. She saw them all and that was a burden to her. She took too much pity for them. I think she will get more angry with the vampire when she wakes up.” Hera explained,

“Wait, if she was suffering from seeing all of those vampires' memories, did that vampire see her memories as well when he bit her?” Reeves asked, looking at us, curiously.

“If he saw that you claim her as your mate, then the vampire king—” Hera said,

“Stop! That’s not going to happen.” I said. I didn’t want her to continue because I didn’t like where it was going. I looked at Carter and asked, “Where’s the vampire’s body?”

“I asked the warrior to dispose of the body. Luna was bleeding, so I had no time to attend to it personally,” he replied,

“Reeves asked the warrior about the body. We can’t let any vampire get their hands on him,” I commanded, and he nodded before leaving. “Carter, go back to the diner and find out if there were other vampires who saw the incident. They will be too eager to know what is in that vampire's head after biting Mica.”

“OK, Alpha,” he said and left too. I know that it was in the middle of the night, but I can’t take the risk of exploiting her identity now. In a week, I will be able to know whether the warrior in the Blue Moon Pack is my sister or not and then just one more, I can breathe a little easier.

“Hera, you can sleep now. I will take care of her.”

“You know she wouldn’t like it when you’re the first one she sees when she wakes up,” she said, teasing.

“Like I care about that.”

“Yeah, right.” she replied, “I am going to sleep on the couch. Find your own spot,” she added and did as she said. I am not going to fit in the same bed as Mica, so I guess there will be no sleeping for me tonight. Anyway, I am going to wait for Reeves and Carter’s report so it’s fine. Hera being here will come in handy once Mica wakes up. I just hope that this memory thing she was suffering from will end soon.
