The Warriors Weakness

Nial Withers

Chapter 3 Charlotte

After the Alpha took Beta Ray out of the room I asked Luna Sierra to bring back my child which she thankfully said she  would ,  while she was gone Doctor Hailey explained to me that the black spots where due to the lack of oxygen at first but now where caused by a concussion with the drug suppressing my enhanced abilities I would be vulnerable until it burned out of my system, so I couldn't fall asleep and that if I did fall asleep it was possible to fall into a comma.

"Beta Ray said Nial rescued his child. He's wrong" I confessed to Luna Sierra once she handed me back my child. Having Isabelle next to me was calming. "The truth is that when Nial found out his first born was a female he hired a group of rogues to kidnap a male Alpha child an infant or toddler who wouldn't remember his family. Turns out the rogues grabbed the wrong kid. When Nial found found out he planned to make the child disappear ... permanently. He confessed this to Jill in one of his rage filled haze's." I then proceeded to tell her all about how Jill managed to get the boy free from Nial.

"A letter sown in the inside of the jacket?" Luna Sierra asked I nodded. Telling her how Jill had wrapped it in plastic and put it in the jacket. Luna Sierra left saying that Ray and his Mate still had the brown button up jacket somewhere and would return once she confirmed my story until then she would make sure no one alerted Alpha Withers. To prove my cooperation I would have to allow another dose of the drug, after doing so Doctor Hailey offered to stay with Isabelle and me to make sure I didn't fall asleep.

Doctor Hailey tried to start a conversation with me but I wasn't in the mood to talk. So she stayed quite for a while. I looked up at the clock hanging up on the far wall and noticed an hour and a half ago. All this time all I could think about was about the dominate male that came to my rescue. His lethal grace and breath taking beautiful eyes. I could sense him on the other side of the door. My wolf didn't talk to me she never did she only passed her emotions onto me and right now she was sending me some mixed ones. It didn't help that she was sedated. A condition for the pack helping me.

"Markus" I found myself calling out his name cutting off Doctor Hailey whom apparently couldn't handle silence And preferred a one way conversation  mid sentence. "I want to thank him" I added looking over at the door where I knew he was standing.

"He's not the friendliest of people" Doctor Hailey stated after clearing her throat. I frowned not liking the way her tone wavered when she said so then continued as if nothing had happened.

"I'm hungry" I lied cutting her off again. She asked we what I wanted to eat and I told her I wanted some fruit. As soon as she left I got off of the bed and tried to open the door but it was locked. I jiggled it a few times with no able it was most likely werewolf reinforced.

"I know your their Markus" I rested my forehead against the wall. The coolness of the cold metal helping with my head ache. "Thank you for protecting me " I closing my eyes and took a few flimsy steps back losing my footing and falling down on my butt.  While I clumsily tried to stand up only to fall back down.The door opened reveling him. It was the first proper look I've gotten of him. His unruly slightly curled dark long hair probably longer than mine just like his eyes his curls looked too surreal to be natural but he didn't look like the type of man who would spend a long time worrying over his hair. Tattoos showed from the wrist on his left arm to the end of his black t-shirt his right was bare of ink. With out saying a word he picked me off the floor and carried me back onto the bed being careful not to crush Isabelle. As soon as my skin touched his our eyes connected and I felt an electric current running through my whole body. My hunch was confirmed this gorgeous man in front of me was my mate.

"Rest" his voice was just as if not more alluring than his eyes. He was acting as if we hadn't just shared an incredible moment. The moment I had waited yet denied myself from hoping would happen to me  actually happen to me and It hurt... it hurt like a lot. "No one can know" his words only made the  hurt that much worst  but I wasn't a stranger to pain nor was I weak. I wouldn't show him how much his words or lack of hurt. 'Fake till you make it' momma used to say, and if their was one thing I was good at it was faking that I was okay, when all I wanted to do is curl up in a ball and cry my eyes out.
