The alpha

Chapter 24.

Olivia

I woke up in a room with needles dug deep into my arms, my legs were strapped up and I looked around moving my fingers. I felt a hand clenched in mine and turned my head to find Kaiden with his head back on an uncomfortable looking chair.

He looked as if he'd just come back from work and taken his blazer off and he'd undone a few of his buttons, his tie loose on his neck. I whispered his name and clenched his hand.

He opened his eyes and looked at me, smiling lightly closing his eyes again but then all of a sudden his eyes snapped open and he shot up.

He let go of my hand and ran out the room. "Someone! She's awake!" I heard feet coming into the room and I saw two faces.

"Don't move Luna, please." She said as I tried to sit up. I furrowed my eyebrows. "What happened." She looked at me shocked and so did Kaiden.

"D-Do you not remember?" I opened my mouth to say something and then shook my head. "N-No I don't. All I remember is, driving away and then," I gasped as I held my pounding head the memories rushing through, as if someone had forced them into me.

I gasped as I tried to shuffle back and away from Kaiden. "You didn't tell me he was your b-brother." He sighed and shook his head, "I didn't know that you knew him. I didn't think."

"Well you should have!" I shouted, my voice breaking.

"Your the one who didn't tell me about him!" He shouted back.

"Well I was going to until I found out that you could have cheated." His chest was growling and he looked over at me furiously.

"Didn't I tell you she was talking rubbish. Your my mate I wouldn't do that to you." He walked closer and I shifted back.

"L-Luna don't move. A-Alpha sir, I don't mean no disrespect but if she's stressed it could cause more damage."

He growled and walked out. I sighed and stopped moving as she assessed me.

A few hours later I was dressed and up. My hair was in a messy bun from the quick shower I'd had to wash all of the dried blood, etc. I had sweats on and one of my black jumpers.

My leg had healed a little since they did a process with mine and Kaiden's blood and since he's one of the most powerful alphas his blood could help me heal for some weird reason.

I sighed as I limped out of the bathroom. My nose was still throbbing, but the pain was bearable.

I walked out the door and Kaiden stood there in new clothes running his hands through his hair. When the door closed behind me he looked over at sighed, almost in relief.

"Liv, I'm so sorry babe. I know I should have told you I just didn't think anything of it. I know I've done wrong and I'm really sorry baby. Just know that I'm nothing like he was and I didn't mean for any of this to happen."

I sighed and crossed my arms as he was standing looking at me with his cute messy hair. I shook my head to get the thought out and just stared at him for a minute until I stepped forward.

"You don't know how much I have been through-" He opened his mouth to speak but I held my hand up to cut him off, "he did stuff that I didn't think was even possible for me to go through. Y-You don't know what it's like knowing that he's still out there and he could come get me-"

"He's not out there anymore. I took care of that." He said with his jaw clenched. My eyes widened.

"W-What?" I asked him startled. "How could you just kill your brother without another thought?" I asked him putting my hands over my mouth.

He rolled his eyes, "Liv, when another wolf hurts my mate I have no mercy. Especially after what he did to you." I don't know why but I felt slightly guilty that he'd been killed because of me but then again there was a voice in my head telling me to stop right there and remember everything he's done to me.

I sighed and shook my head. "Thank you." I said looking up at him slowly. He came closer to me and held my face in his hands.

"I'd do anything for you Liv, you should know that." I smiled slightly and then hugged his waist as he brought my head to his chest, lightly. "I'm sorry I didn't know what you'd been through with him. You should know that you can tell me anything Olivia." He rested his head against mine.

He grabbed my thighs and lifted me up gently, so he didn't hurt me. I wrapped my legs around his waist and tilted my head to the side. I kissed him and thanked him again for saving me.

He pulled away quickly and said, "You don't have to thank me. I'd do anything for you," I sighed and smiled, my eyes filling with tears.

"Nothing will ever hurt you again, I prom-"

I shook my head. "Don't promise that, please." His jaw clenched.

"You think I can't protect you?" I gasped and shook my head.

"That's not what I was saying and you know that I do think you can but that was unexpected you can't be with me every second of the day just to make sure I'm not going anywhere." He sighed and clenched his jaw thinking of the previous events.

"I can't but you will be assigned with a guard of your choice to go everywhere outdoors with you, no matter who's there. I'm not taking anymore chances. Your human and you will not be getting hurt again." I glared and got down pushing him away from me.

"You think just because I'm human that I'm weak?" I crossed my arms as he stared back at me with a straight face.

"Well your not exactly stronger than us, especially not in your state. Us werewolves have power and there's a lot of us in one pack too. We are stronger than you humans." I glared at him.

"If you think your so much stronger than us humans," I emphasised the word "humans" to show him I was pissed, "then you can find someone else to be your Luna. Someone that will be strong enough for it and someone that will satisfy your needs for whenever. Better yet, why don't you go ask that whore who I caught you with the other day!" He growled and stepped forward.

"You didn't catch me with her because I wasn't doing anything. I pushed her away didn't I? And as for finding anyone stronger I won't because there isn't anyone who would fit better as a Luna than you. I didn't mean you I meant humans in general. You will be more secure having a guard there that's trained and knows what they are doing."

I scoffed and shook my head walking past him slowly because of my leg. "I'm going back to my own room." I heard a growl.

"No your not!" I slammed the door shut before he could say anything else and quickly walked downstairs.
