Chapter 14

I stared at him shocked. How did he managed to get here unscathed? The amount of guards surrounding the house isn't one to be underestimated. Even a full grown and trained Alpha would have a hard time passing those guards.

But then again..

He is here. In front of me. He came to save me..

I feel tears blurring my eyes but quickly wiped it out. I was going to go for a run and hug Eli but my mind reminded me of Jasen. Switching my attention to him, I saw his calm demeanor almost smirking at Eli's attempt to save me.

What is his plan?

"Lina? Are you alright?"

Eli rushed in front of me frantically looking at my exposed parts If something is hurt but other than my swollen neck. No bruise or scratches.

He sighed in relief but immediately tenses when he saw my neck.

"You f*cking bastard!"

He lunged at Jasen catching him by surprise. Jasen's smirk fell down as he struggled on Eli's arm lock on his head.

I then realized that he is going to snap Jasen's head out of his body. I know I should feel happy but no. This is wrong. He can suffer from the council jail but not die. Dying is too much.

"Eli! Eli.. I'm fine let's go."

With the sound of my voice, Eli's attention drifted into mine. His face became soft as he realized that getting medical attention and getting the hell out of here is more important than killing an alpha.

Besides.. If a lycanthrope kills an alpha it would be a whole lot of different mess from the council. The entire wolf population might be scared to the Lycans. They might think that Lycanthropes are going wild. Just imagine the possibilities.

I noticed him debating on what he should do but quickly let go of Jasen's weak and limp body and lifted mine bridal carry, running away from the pack house to his.

As he was on the driveway I feel him tense behind me.

"What's wrong? E-eli? Are you alright?"

I noticed that his grip in me tightens as his body began to jolt again two times.

I notice the slight paling of his lips as I realized what happened.

I quickly looked behind him to see two snipers pointing their guns at us.

"Oh my god. Eli put me down you're shot!! Eli!!"

I am not crying because of me.. I'm crying because of him. He is catching all the bullets and protecting my body with his.

He didn't respond on my constant pleading but he tightened his grip on me more as if telling me its alright.

We are long far from Jasen's pack house when we are running for 15 minutes.

He is already tired. I don't know why, Lycans are supposed to have more energy. They're designed to fight so looking at panting Eli wasn't a good sign. His immune system must be better than normal wolf. What might cause him to feel weak?

"Eli I can walk now you know"

Again he didn't respond. His face is getting paler and paler every minute. The droplets of cold sweat is already dripping from his angelic face. You could tell by first glance that he is in pain.

After thirty minutes of agonizingly slow run. We arrived on his pack house and saw his friends waiting for him.

"Eli!"

They all shouted. Eli slowly put me down but as he did so, he coughed a lot of blood making all of us still in shock.

Another cough full of blood and then he passed out still holding my hand.

Oh my god. What happened? They only have guns! It doesn't matter if its silver, Eli is a Lycan, silver barely had effect on a Lycan.

"Elii!"

His friends quickly raised him up contacting the pack doctor.

While waiting for the doctor to determine what the problem is, ar certain blonde hair brown eyes approached me.

"Hello, Lina I'm Milliana, you can call me Milly I'm Eli's friend. I might not know what happened but you look like you need a medical support now, you look exhausted and you look like going to pass out any minute."

"Oh.. Um.. Hi M-milly"

I fidgets slightly blushing a bit as I realized that a Lycanthrope. Particularly Eli's friend is talking to me.

"I- I can handle myself. I need to know if he is alright. Its my fault he is in there right now."

"No its not Lina, if anything its his fault. He keep denying our help because we might got caught red handed by the council so he wanted to do it himself. He wanted to show off."

I am kinda offended by her tone but then again. They must know each other for life's for them to talk about one of them like that.

"But he is strong Lina. He will get over this in one snap like this"

She snapped her fingers in front of me giggling.

I hope so.

"I'll call the doctors assistant to take care of you okay?"

She said leaving me no options to say no.

After like an hour , I found myself laying on a separate bed but in the same room as Eli.

Our bed is inches close. My hand is itching to touch his. To feel his warmth. To feel tingles. So I did.

I reached my hand on his and intertwined our fingers together.

At first there was no shock.. No tingles only warmth.

But after a few seconds his heartbeat rate increased and the tingles like electric shock.. Shocked me causing me to get my arm away from him.

That's too much.

I said to myself. I slowly inch my fingers on his again then intertwined it our fingers together. This time I felt the right kind of sparks running through my veins. The right amount of warmth and assurance that I missed.

I could now tell that I am home.
