Ignoring it, I stay still, watching Alpha Dane move around the bedroom. It looked as if he was having a
conversation with someone. Maybe this Aero?
I had so many questions. Did this Aero live inside of him? What happens when he shifts? He mentioned control.
Did Aero have full control when he shifted? As far as I was aware, anyone that could shift, just shifted. They
didn’t bec someone else.
As Alpha Dane continued to move in a figure of eight in the bedroom, I pressed my hand against my stomach. Even through the fabric of my top, my skin felt like it was on fire.
I felt my own heart racing in my chest, just like when I left Moonshine for the first time. My hands were clammy, and my mouth was dry. I reached out to grab the bedpost to steady myself and stop my legs from buckling underneath me.
“It hurts,” I muttered as the pain radiated through me.
“Neah?” He spun around to look at me, and I let my legs give way.
He caught me before I hit the floor, concern etched all over his face as he pulled up my top. “Shit!”
I had never felt pain like it. All the beatings, all the punishments, this was nothing in comparison.
Alpha Dane lifted me from the floor, holding an arm under my knees and under my back as he raced me through the house and out into the cool evening air.
His feet pounded the ground as he moved quickly. He slammed his back against the door to the pack hospital, almost taking it off its hinges as he forced us through.
“It’s not what we first thought,” he shouted out to Raven as he lowered me onto a bed. “You need to look at this!”
He tugged up my top, ignoring my squirming in pain, and then tried to hold me down so Raven could get a better look. He cupped my face with one large hand. “Look at me, Neah, look at me and breathe.”
Everything burned; my entire body felt like it was tearing itself apart.
“Is this what I think it is?” Raven questioned.
“Yes,” Alpha Dane muttered as he held my shoulders down.
“I’m sorry, Neah. This is going to hurt,” Raven called out.
“I can help,” another man spoke as another wave of pain shot through me.
“Hold her legs,” Alpha Dane instructed.
I felt something hot and sharp press into my stomach. I heard the men holding me down. They were going to kill me.
Moments before I passed out from the pain, I heard Alpha Panesar.
Dane
“Did anyone have a clue?” I demand as I watch my sleeping mate. She was out cold and likely would be for stime. Raven had gone as far as stitching her up once she was certain the tie had been severed and Neah’s body had been pumped full of drugs.
Someone’s head is gaing to roll! Aero growls “No.” Eric replies. “Surely if Neah was mated, she wouldn’t have left Moonshine so easily.
“But she didn’t though, did she?! She practically collapsed at the door.” “I thought you said that was because she had never left? You said a combination of fear and illness.” I turn around to see him leaning against the wall, studying me. He was the only one I had confided in, telling him what Aero had said about Neah being our mate.
“Maybe he was nearby.” He shrugs his shoulders atas my eyes shift to my sister.
She was staring into her coffee, trying to not draw attention to herself, but the silence toldshe knew something. The girl barely stay silent for more than a few minutes “Spit it out!” I snap at her.
‘Why the fuck is it always Raven?’ Aero prowls around the back of my mind. I already knew he wanted to have it out with Raven’s Wolf, Midnight “I don’t know anything.” Raven keeps her eyes low “Raven! I nearly killed her by kissing her because of this stupid fucking blood tie! A blood tie can only exist if she has a mate that is still alive.” “Okay, okay. You don’t need to go all Alpha on me. She had a mate. All I know is that he rejected her.
“Are you certain? She nods her head.
“Did she accept?” “I don’t know. I’m sorry, talking about it madethink of Salem okay. f kind of went off talking about why he rejected me, okay! If I had known thatwas the reason for this, then I would have questioned her more.” “Con Dane, you know she is telling the truth.” Eric mutters. He moves next toand peers in through the window at Neah. “I’m more interested to know how she knew she was mated.” “What?” “You said she was bound, right?” Eric frowns I hadn’t even thought about it. I had been too wrapped up in the blood tie news. “She shouldn’t have been able to scent him.” I mutter, “How could she have known? Sitting by Neah’ s bedside, I watch her in silence, trying to choose the words Fwanted to say. There was a ot of information to unpack, though already knew it would be tad much other to handle at once. ~ In the bright lights of the hospital, she looked a little better, her skin wasn’t as dull and her eyes no longer appeared so sunken Raven appears regularly to check her and to check the newly stitched wound. Eactscheck up, she would apologise to me, tellingthat she never meant to keep it a secret.and that she hadn’t thought much of it. Because in her words, who creates a blood tie when they have rejected their mate. Which just adds to the list of questions I have for Neah.
It’s almost one in the morning before her eyes open.
