She's my True Alpha[MAJOR EDITING]

Chapter 17, Quincy

Edited.
Nyla's Pov

*Beep beep beep* I hate the sound of the monitors. And I hate how much I've had to hear them. When I heard my father was alive, that he faked his death until word was confirmed to Alpha Tadashi he was dead. I brought him to the holy groups to be treated.

There's no official leader. The group is barley official so I'm not sure who to thank. The HG is anyone who believes in the total bloodline. Which includes my father. They say they'll bow down for him but I can see the uncertainty. Some of them aren't fully willing to get slaughtered by Keeylns very loyal army.

"How long will the recovery be?"

"It could be a week, a month for full recovery or three years, an Alpha's recovery is unpredictable. The sword almost nearly missed his heart.," I nodded at the groups doctor pushing the curtains open to a small medical room set up outside." He's awake now."

"Dad, Uncle is here," I quietly said approaching his creaking bed.

Marcos slowly pushed the curtains open behind me.

"Nyla," he said.

I nodded taking the hint and stepping to the far back corner of the room. They need space.

"Brother, I knew a girl would be your downfall. You never should have ditched Young Macy Gray at the park to go to the cave with Keeyln," Marcos chuckled.

I sent a small giggle to myself. My dad's so  selfless and selfish at the same time, and it's all for Keeyln. Even I know she's the center of his world. That won't change.

This was no laughing matter but I need something to lighten the mood. And laughing is the only thing that made sense. Quincy smiled but the smile was distant and ungenuine.

It's a smile that tries to cover up how he really feels. He doesn't need to cover how he feels because no one expects him to feel good when knife fragments are that close to his heart.

"How do we beat her? She rejected me as her mate and obviously has not a damn care for me. She's so paranoid and unwilling to be cared about that she hurts everyone first. I tried to be cold, evil, and emotionless like her but it didn't work. She bested me and nearly killed me.  No matter what I lose,"

I can't imagine being in his shoes. Wanting to save someone that doesn't want to be saved. Loving someone who makes it clear they hate you.

And through it all how doesn't he give up? What is the outlet of his strength and determination?

Marcos shook his head. "Brother, you have to keep being you. Stick with your plan you've had for five years. Your smart, charming, kindhearted and most of all your a trickster,"

"And how will that help me?"

"Beat her at her own game. Make her think your like her maybe even stronger by being a fighter. Which means get your ass out the hospital bed and fight!" My eyes widened. That was so insensitive, he nearly got stabbed in the heart... by his mate! "Make her fall for you because right now your in second place,"

Wow now I see where Keeyln got her influence from. This is not what you tell someone in a hospital bed holding onto their life.

Is he really egging  him on by mentioning that? When your in a tough spot count on my Uncle Marcos to stiffen the mood with his insensitivity.

"What do you mean?" His eyes narrowed.

"Keeyln's got someone falling for her and it's not you brotha. She's fighting for him," Quincy's eyes looked angered.

I'm glad he's not looking at me with that look that could tear through your soul. Or I might just spill my secret. I hate keeping a secret for my dad but he's kind of fragile and doesn't need anything else on his plate especially a long lost daughter.

I don't know how he takes all this bad news because that's all the hell you'll get with Keeyln.

"Brother, I don't know if you still care for the girl but you need to make her care for you. She's your mate, not his!"

"And what about you? She told you she cared for you? You can't tell me you never once felt the same,"

"I'm older than her,"

"So..."

"I hate her,"

"So..."

"She's a devil,"

"Your avoiding the truth."

"Whatever Quincy, we're going on a mission,"

They bicker like...well siblings. I've never had siblings before but I'd always thought it'd be nice to bicker with anyone besides myself when I forget something dumb like to put the cap on the toothpaste.

Now we just bicker about what my dad should know. So many unanswered questions she won't give me.

"Where to?" Quincy began to unhinge all the cords and wires from his body.

"Quincy, are you sure you should do that?" I asked cautiously.

He shook his head. "No, but I'm an alpha I shouldn't need healing," He smiled cockily before trying to stand up and falling back down. "You know what just give me five more minutes of rest," He added.

"That's what I thought Alpha," I teased.

"Where do you think Gail would go?" Marcos asked, mainly directed towards me.

"Hawaii," I spoke up. They both looked at me in confusion. "Not for a vacation or a luau nitwits, he mentioned his fathers pack being there to Keeyln. Let's hope she wasn't listening or that'd be the first place she checks."

"Well, pack up. We're going to Hawaii,"

Finally a vacation spot! I know you all must be happy the main setting isn't Keeyln's office.

What do you think? I added a bit more humor I felt like you all needed it right?
Quincy is alive and he's trying again!

A race: who will Keeyln fall for? There will only be one she truly loves although she'll play with all of there hearts.

I'm gonna introduce Nyla's crush in the next chapter. Ugh! Why did I tell you that!?

Maybe.
