Chapter 0575

“Don’t engage! Stay hidden!” I'couldn’t hear anything but g everything in me told me they were inside. “Alec, be realistic. They will find me. I have no choice but to fight.” “I’m coming.” “Okay.” I whispered. Tossing the phone under the bed, I got up and moved to stand behind the door. The floor board creaked just outside of the door. The element of surprise was the only thing that I had going for me.

Sierra came forward. She didn’t fully shift but she did extend her claws out.

As soon as the shadow of a man was just inside the door, she jumped

around and shoved her claws into his chest. He had about three seconds to look into the whites of my eyes before his eyes looked down at his own heart.

His body dropped to his knees, making it clear there was another person behind him.

“SHIT!” He yelled as Sierra swiped at him. She got his jugular, making blood spray around the room.

“FUCK!” He cried as he kept moving around until he finally fell to the ground.

It was key to stay in this room and not allow they to surround me. The third guy came in swinging, making Sierra go on the defense. As he came around with his leg, Sierra took a step back.

However, the step was right on the dead man’s arm and she fell off

| balance.

“Damit!” I'said as he lunged forward > and fell on top of me. He was fat and heavy. The smell of bacon grease, tobacco and sweat made me want to gag.

She kept my forearms in front of my face to keep from getting any blows but a few landed on my kidneys. It wasn’t until another figure came in cause Sierra to have enough.

A wave of power ran through my veins as Sierra shifted into her form. “NO!” The man in top of me was tossed back and through a window.

“Give me that!” Sierra looked over just in time to see something shiny getting passed around.

“Sierra! Run!” I screamed but she had

already taken off. We weren’t sure how many more men there was but Sierra was massive and being trappedina bedroom with a gun wasn’t ideal.

Shots ran out as she jumped through the window. A piece of glass scraped against her shoulder but it was the burning hot pain in her thigh that told me we got shot.

However, she kept going. She knew where she was going and that was down to the road to hopefully run into Alec. A few more shots flew by us until only the sounds of her paws going threw the snow filled out ears.

“Don’t stop! The blood is leaving a trail.” Sierra looked back once. If it wasn’t for the blood, she would blend it perfectly.

We might have had a chance to hide

and do a sneak attack.

Pushing the pain out of our minds, 5 Sierra was in full speed. She was faster than any rogues or even faster than warriors. It wasn’t a worry they would catch her but she needed back up.

After what felt like hours, she finally slowed down to look at her leg. The bullet was still in there and the bleeding had slowed. Shoving ice from a tree in the hole, she was able to keep the blood from flowing more. Staying alert, Sierra tried to clean a little before her ears perked up.

“We need to move.” I wasn’t sure why I whispered but Sierra had the same idea. She got up and started running again.

“KRISTEN!” Alec’s sweet voice filled my head, making me whimper in relief.

“Alec! We are running in the woods, p Where are you?” “Driving. Get to the road!” ‘ “I've been shot in the thigh!” “Damit, woman!” “Technically Sierra got shot.” I felt her amusement and annoyance but she was happy her mate was near.

“They are still coming.” Sierra cut from the trees right as Alec’s car came into view. She collapsed on the pavement, shifting back into our human form. She couldn’t fit into his car so she was forced to let me take the lead.

Alec skidded to a stop as I tried to stand. “Hurry!” I cried out as he came

up to me and picked me up.

“Our warriors are on their way here.

I'm taking you to a hospital.” Putting me in the passenger seat, Alec came around and slammed his door shut, Alec turned around and sped off as a dozen men came out from the tree line.

“I thought we had a bigger lead.” “Can’t run as fast with a bullet in your leg.” Alec grabbed a shirt and pressed it against my wound. noveldrama

“Shit!” He didn’t let up so I reached over and turned up the heater. “I think our white carpet is ruined.” “You left your fucking phone on. I had to listen to you fight.” “Would you rather I hung up on you and you would have been in the dark?” My teeth started clattering.

Alec looked over at my lips and hands before turning the heater on high.

“You need to get warm.” mm | “I'think I'm going into shock...” It was all T could get out before the world started spinning. My heart started beating really fast.

“Don’t pass out! Stay with me!” Alec growled. “That’s a command! Stay awake!” It took everything me to me stay half awake. My head fell against Alecs arm.

It was like I was watching my life happen and nothing I could do about it.

The hospital lights illuminated just how blood stained the shirt was.

Why there was a gurney waiting for me was beyond my comprehension. Alec had to keep my body from flying forward as he slammed in the breaks. I

was vaguely aware of being pulled out of the car and taking inside.

“I love you.” I said in the mind-Tink before blackness took over. :
