Chapter 114

"Hold on mate, I got you" I run with all my might 'Dr. Jocoby, I need you to get to the VIP wing right away, I'm on my way with two injured and also get Dirk and David' ' yes my King, on my way'.

The ride up the elevator is the longest ride up of my entire life! once the door opens I rush out and the entire team is there and waiting with two stretchers, I lay her down and they run with her to the treatment room "I thought you said there were two my King" "the other one should be along shortly" as if on cue the elevator open once again and the others come carrying an equally unconscious Beau.

He too is wheeled away "can you guys tell us what happened?" "no, we can't we don't know, they got pulled into the forbidden zone by something and Red told us to run and get help so that's what we did, we all just got to them and met them in the condition they're in right now, well the King found them"

“No one noticed anything out of the ordinary? For example what would have hurt them like that? They’ve still got tentacles attached to them, what on earth did they encounter?” “the forbidden forest has been forbidden all my life Jacoby, not even I have ever went in there so I’m not sure what exactly you want us to say here”

“Perhaps the previous King, may be able to shed some light for us, we really need to know what we’re up against to administer proper treatment?” “oh come on Dr. Jacoby, please stop being so stone aged, just take a blood sample from one or both of them and test it to see what’s in their blood streams”

“As much as I appreciate your unwarranted advice Dr. Dirk, you know very well how long blood tests takes and they may not have that kind of time to spare” “ah yes that’s true, if only Franny were here to expedite things for us” the fker “well she’s not and you are familiar with her lab, if you still want your job at this hospital, you better get moving, take the samples and get to work”

He swallows hard and bows, then swiftly makes his way to the emergency room where they are then emerges a few minutes later carrying vials of blood.

Hunter is going crazy in my mind and I am just barely keeping it together, "Tyler! Tyler!" Astrid runs up to me grinning, "they're awake! they're both awake!" I take a deep breath swallowing my own melancholy "that's great Astrid, how are they?" "they're getting checked on by the doctors but they seem to be perfectly fine, Carson has been looking at me like he can't wait to devour me! not that I'm complaining" she beams.

I can't, I just can't genuinely be happy right now "is everything okay?" "uhm no, my- I mean, Roho was attacked and is currently in the OR along with her friend" "Oh my goodness! what?! how bad is her injury?" "we don't know because we don't know what attacked them, they went on the trail and somehow got dragged into the forbidden zone by whatever attacked them"

"What the actual heck T- I mean my King" "excuse me, Lady Astrid, Mr. Wade is asking for you" she looks back at me "it's fine Astrid, go on ahead and see about your mate" she gives me a sad smile then follows after the nurse.

Astrid

I get back to the wing where my mate is and his scent overwhelms me, almost makes me want to moan because it's so mouth watering. "Hey, did you find Tyler?" Carsons' eyes hone in on me as Cory asks about Tyler, he's like a predator and he licks his lips taking me in from head to toe, Gods so this is what it feels like, the mates lust, a pang of guilt hits me as I remember, I will be his first but he won't be mine.

"Astrid?" "ah, yes?" "Tyler? did you tell him they're awake?" "yes I did" "and where is he?" "he, can't come right now Cory, he's handling something else right now"

"What could possibly be more important than our mates waking up Astrid?" " Roho got hurt Cory, can you chill! you've been a total jerk all this time" "what?! she got hurt? how? she was fine just this morning!"

"Something attacked them on the trail by the forbidden forest" "what on earth were they doing in the forbidden zone?!" "you're asking the wrong person and you're being annoying right now" "what did you just say to me?" he growled and Carson is instantly standing in front of me protectively and in attack stance, damn that's sexy as shit.

I touch Carson on his back and he shivers then turns to me, picks me up and carries me to the bathroom, I wrap my legs around him as he places me on the bathroom counter top, he inhales at my neck and I feel him graze my nape with his canine which makes me moan.

He rasps out "don't do that baby, I'm barely holding it together right now"
