The Alpha's Angel

Chapter 9

The pristine white snow crunched beneath my feet. I looked down an all I saw was my protruding belly I was eight months pregnant, and it looked as if I was ready to pop! I chuckle at that thought, and continued to walk/waddle to the house. Since Nathan was out all day , I had more free time to do my own things, such as see my new best friend. Her name was Nikki. She was the pack doctor and the first time I ever met her, was the day we found out we were having a baby boy, when she conducted my ultrasound. Right away, me and her clicked. She looked over me, have me tips and advice,and she would be the one helping me deliver the baby in just a few weeks.

I was so consumed in my thoughts, and lacking the werewolf senses, I didn't hear the loud sirens wailing around me at first, until someone nearly shoved me out of the way.

"Hey! Watch where your going" I shouted, but he just turned around and yelled out

"Rouge attack!!" My jaw dropped and I froze in horror and just watched the wolves shift and head off to fight and defend the pack. I panicked and speedily walked to the pack house. Suddenly I lost all my footing to a slate of ice and I was falling forward. I screamed, but suddenly two warm arms wound their way around my waist and pulled me up again. Right away I knew it was Nathan , from the sparks that radiated of his skin with his touch. He crushed me against his chest protectively and ran with me to the pack house. He placed me in the bedroom and locked all the windows. He gently laid me down in the bed. He laid beside me for a moment to reassure me.

"Angel,it's gonna be okay. I'm here, no need to worry. I swear I will let nothing hurt you. " the sincerity in his voice made me feel more relaxed and composed, but I was still slightly quivering, with fear, and coldness. He pressed me tighter into him , listening intently to the sounds of the battle and the updates his second in command was giving him. He shuddered slightly.

"What's wrong babe?" I asked. He sighed,

"One of our pack members just got killed." He hung his head sadly. I kissed him on the cheek and huddled closer to him, searching for his warmth. Suddenly, I was alone on the bed and he was at the door. On all fours, and crouched, ready to pounce at who ever was about to walk through this door. I could her light, laddering of footfalls. They stopped when they got outside our door. The knob turned. I quivered with fear and held my breath trying not to scream. Suddenly the door flew open and Nathan relaxed and shifted back to human. It was Nikki.

"Are you guys okay!!" She yelled? Nathan pulled her inside the room and Locke the door.

"Yeah I'm fine. She's just shocked and afraid. " Nathan said boldly. Nikki sighed.

"Rango was killed... We almost got them all, but they fled with their tails between their legs... Literally."

The room went silent and Nathan said," come on Nikki we have to go. We need to regroup the pack. " he kissed me softly on the lips , and Nikki hugged me. Before they walked out the door.

My eyes grew tired and heavy, and once again, I fell into the blackness.
