Blind Love

Chapter 20- Chase

I carry my unconscious mate to my pack hideout. She was still in wolf form and was bleeding badly. Naomi is walking beside me, the doctor explaining how Para can see. I listen intently, anything to keep my mind off her possibly being dead. I soon see the den ahead and I tear up. Home. I was home. I hear a grunt in my arms, Paras feral eyes open and land in me.

"Mate." She says, I feel my own wolf rise.

"Are you well, mate?"

"Pain." I turn to the doctor.

"You hurt my mate."

"I saved someone she cares about, life. I saved her from emotional pain." She answered. My wolf didn't fight that. I push him down and enter my den. It is empty. I lay her on some blankets and cover her.

"What do we do? She is feral, wild!" I ask.

"I will try to get all of the silver out of her, but this is a different kind of silver. I don't know she will react."

"I will hold her down." She nods and takes out my visible first aid kit. She takes out two needles and sticks one in her neck. Immediately she begins to struggle. I hold her down but she was strong. The needle was filling with silver blood. I look away, I couldn't watch. Her struggling died down, and she fell asleep. The doc takes out the needle and puts the full one away.

"She is too weak to do a second. Help me wrap her up." I grab the wrap and wrap where she has been injured.

"Chase!" Astrid calls.

"In my den!" Astrid comes running through.

"The pack isn't here. And neither is Rena."

"What!" I jump up.

"I have checked every den but there is nothing."

"We have to howl then." she shakes her head.

"Dale is still out there... He could hear us."

"Doesn't matter. We will find a new home but we need the pack." I look over at the weak and sleeping Para.

"Will she be alright?" Astrid asks

"Yes. I believe so."

"You go and call your pack. I will watch over her." Naomi says.

"Thanks. " Astrid and I head outside and change. We tilt our head back and howl. Long and sad. We missed our pack. I hear another, weak and lonely, join our howl. Para was trying to help. I smile and howl louder. We go silent and listen. After about five minutes we give up. They are gone. Astrid was in tears as she ran into her den. My own eyes are tearing up as I begin my short walk back, when I heard it. A small howl. Rena. I howl back excitedly. I run into the forest following her howls until I find her in a small cave. She comes running out.

"Chase!"

"Rena!"

"I heard your howls!"

"Where is the pack?"

"I haven't seen the pack." Rena answers. Sadness flow through me. My pack is truly gone. Cassie, Reese, Kevin, and Ben... Gone. I help Rena climb on my back and begin my run back for he den. Astrid smiles when she sees Rena and hugs her.

"Where's everybody else?" I shake my head. Tears well up but don't fall in Astrid's eyes. Rena yawns and I look at the moon and realiZe it's late.

"Off to bed Rena." I say quietly. She nods and heads to her den. Lifeless and sad. Astrid heads into her own as do I. My weak mate lays there, shivering, Naomi was bustling around, but I may beside her and give her warmth. "How are you feeling?" I ask
