Chapter 290
Theo's POV
As James sleeps, I cradle Natalie in my arms and watch her sleep. Amber was taken back to prison, and she is now under twenty-four-hour watch. Sarah is in a cell, but she looks out of it now. I think seeing twenty innocents being locked in a basement fucked her up mentally.
"Theo," I look over as James calls to me.
"You good, brother?" I ask.
"I will be. I'm just sore. How is our girl?" He looks at Natalie with worry.
"She cried herself to sleep," I sigh out as he sits up more.
"Did she hurt herself falling the way she did?" He looks at her. His eyes take in her little form with clear fear. I tried to dally with her gently, but I was more worried she could have gotten shot than anything else.
"She worried more for me and you than herself. Doc gave her pain meds earlier. "Our pups are good, so rest, brother," he sighed and closed his eyes. I could tell he didn't want to rest.
"Did Amber die? "How the fuck did she get out?" he asks, and I sigh.
"I pulled the surveillance footage, and nothing happened; her cell door was unlocked, and she walked right out. I'm thinking it was a glitch, or she got her own hacker. "I kiss Natalie's head.
"Fuck, she could have killed our mate Theo," he fumes. I stand, and Natalie whimpers in my arms. I carry her to his bed and gently put her beside him. He gathers her close and kisses her lips.
"She is okay. James was just scared and shook up. I'm going to go check on the people Amber had locked in her basement. Sarah is still out of it, so I'm going to try to talk to her. Are you good here?" I ask, and he nods as he brushes Natalie's hair back.
"I got her, Theo. Just go and be careful. Some of them could be her people or people she works with." I nod as I step out, locking the door behind me. I head to the emergency department. When I get there, many are sleeping, but others look around in fear. "Are these our new masters?" A young teen asks, shaking.
"No, sweetie, you are at Savage. This here is Alpha Theo Savage; he isn't like the masters. You all are safe. You can even go home to your packs or your people. Right now, we are giving medical care because most of you are extremely underweight and have infections," Doc speaks softly.
I scan the rooms and see Sarah sitting there staring ahead.
"Does she speak at all?" I ask Doc.
"No, just stares ahead like that. I tried smelling salts, but I really think she is in shock. I pulled her from the cell earlier to try getting her to eat or even interact with the Franklins; she just stares ahead," Doc sighs. I walk closer to Sarah, and her eyes look vacant, and I sigh again.
"Sarah," I begin. It is Alpha, Theo. Can you hear me?" She doesn't even flinch.
"She won't respond. I think I should sedate her, Alpha. She needs rest and a good therapist," he mutters as he checks the teens out. Most have infections and cuts on their bodies.
"Sedate her and inform me if anyone acts suspicious. James woke up thirty minutes ago, and he is fine." I head back to his room and freeze, hearing some nurses talking about Amber and her crazy shit.
"I heard she sold Luna Natalie when she was sixteen. I bet it wasn't all that bad," one says with a sigh.
"Being taped and beaten is awful. Stop talking nonsense, Jen; you're just jealous. Theo and James are taken now," another says, annoyed.
"Who wouldn't be jealous? Those two have huge cocks, and I bet they fuck well as well. I bet Natalie doesn't know how to satisfy them. "I'm also allowed my opinion, Sally; you're just mad you weren't mated to them," Jen fires back. I want to snap, but I listen in more.
"I'm not jealous or mad. Jen, our luna, is very sweet, and she compliments them both. Would I love being mated to them? Fuck yes, but I'm happy with my life as it is. You're bitter. You can't get a man with a huge dick. Get over yourself." Sally stomps off. I want to flip, but I stay hidden as Jen talks to the last nurse.
