The Power Bond

Chapter Six|| Wolf in distress

{Madeline's POV} Alessia above:) aka Claire Holt

I let out an ear piercing scream when I left the bathroom. I stood in nothing but a towel and there by the door stood a man. He looked like he was in a trance.

"Get out!" I screamed as he closed the door advanced towards me. I moved backwards away from him. I was about to scream again when the door was kicked open.

Ryker stood, his eyes glowing a bright purple, something i've never seen him do. Which only meant one thing; his wolf was in control.

The man stood puzzled as if he didn't know what to do. Goddess bless Ryker for coming in when he did. Pain erupted in my lower abdomen as I let out a grunt.

In seconds Ryker had his hand through the mans chest and I let out a yet another scream.

"If I ever see you around here again, I will plunge my hand through your chest again, but the time your heart will leave with me. Get lost, pup." Ryker growled out.

"Ryker!" I said quickly when two more men—wearing staff uniform—were at the door. Their eyes were zeroed in on me.

He went to release the man in front of him, but the two men fell to the ground and behind them stood a girl.

"Men just don't have any respect anymore." She said dusting her hands off. 

She literally just knocked them out.

Ryker tossed over the man in his grasp to her. The man held his chest in pain and I watched as blood glistened from the wound. He'll heal... maybe.

"Ill clean this mess up, Ryk." She said grabbing the two men in front of her arms and looked in thought before dropping one mans arm. She stepped over him then kicked him down the steps. She and I winced as he hit each step with a thud.

She then grabbed the groaning man's arm instead still holding the third man's arm and starting walking down the steps dragging them. I stood watching her mouth agape. I wanna learn to do that! Can she teach me instead?

Ryker shut the door behind her locking it.

"I was so worried." He said walking over to me cupping my cheek gently with one hand. His other was coated in blood making me sick at my stomach.

"Im fine." I mumbled taking in what all just happened.

"And in heat." He said and I sighed.

"It's going to be a long night, isn't it?" I asked basically pouting.

"Im afraid it is, love. Ill be here the whole night though." He said.

"Who was she?" I asked glancing back at the door. He let out a chuckle.

"That would be my beta. Her dad got hurt on a mission once and she took his spot being the only heir. She's lived up to the title though, but she's a hand full, that's for sure." I cocked an eyebrow.

"What? Never heard of a female beta? Im all for breaking stereotypes." he winked walking towards the bathroom. 

Damn, she's badass!

The water cut on and he walked back out.

"You're going to need to get in the bath and lay in the cold water. It'll calm your nerves that are reacting with the heat." he said motioning me forward.

I slowly walked forward and looked down.

"Im in a towel." I said and he shrugged.

"A-are you going to be in there with me?" I asked and he gave me an 'are you serious' look.
