A hunter's mate is an alpha's heart

Chapter 19

Ashton's POV.

I heard the howl of my pack and came running, I was in my black wolf form.
The message was clear, -Maddie.danger!-
I pushed myself even harder to reach the pack house.
With every step I took it felt like I was getting further away.
-I must reach her......something's wrong....- I screamed in my head.
After agonizing seconds which felt like minutes I reached the pack house. I dashed inside not caring to transform back into my human form at first. I saw Maddie throwing up blood, my pack members looked at me as I approached.
"Alpha....it's bad..." A female said to me looking at the floor. Although part of me was screaming in agony I stayed silent and I swallowed my pain and tears.
Even at times like this I must remain an alpha figure. "What happened." I commanded for I wasn't asking a question.
"Alpha...she came from her room I guess and came into the kitchen, but she was walking funny like something was wrong..." My beta started telling me.
Then a she wolf spoke up "that's when she collapsed and fell to the floor...and that's when we heard..." She was interrupted by the beta.
"Multiple heartbeats...then she threw up blood..." He told me.
My eyes went wide, "M-multiple...H-heart.....B-beats.....???" I looked at Maddie who was now passed out and breathing rapidly. I didn't know what to do...
