Everything hurt. Although this time it wasn’t the sharp, unbearable agony he vaguely remembered from before, instead it was a dull, persistent ache that radiated through his entire body as if he'd been hit by a truck.

His arms throbbed, his stomach felt tender and stiff, and his head pounded with a headache so painful it made him want to close his eyes again and sleep for another week.

He blinked slowly, trying to make sense of his s

    Dallas's hand moved to Carter's stomach before he'd even fully sat up, his eyes wild with panic. He grabbed Carter by the shoulders and hauled him closer despite the doctors' alarmed protests, his hands frantically roaming over Carter's torso, checking for injuries, or for signs of damage.Then he pressed his face against Carter's abdomen and inhaled deeply, his entire body going rigid."The baby," Dallas rasped, his voice hoarse from three days of disuse. "Tell me. Is the baby—""At first we weren't certain," Dr. Thorne interrupted, stepping forward with his clipboard clutched tight. "The trauma was severe, and at such an early stage of development, it seemed highly unlikely that…""Is. My son. Alive." Dallas's voice dropped into that Alpha commanding tone that made everyone in the room flinch, so much so that the younger doctors took an involuntary step backwards.Isaac cleared his throat nervously, his hands fidgeting with his stethoscope. "Yes, Alpha. Somehow, miraculously, the fe

    The doctor had essentially passed a death sentence on Dallas, and Carter felt his heart break with a feeling so raw and painful and utterly devastating, that those words didn’t even begin to describe it.He threw off the thin hospital blanket covering his legs and swung them over the side of the bed..Every movement he made sent sharp jolts of pain through his healing body, but he ignored them.The doctors immediately protested, reaching out to stop him."Mr. Whitfield, you shouldn't be moving…""You need to stay in bed, you're not strong enough…"But Carter simply shook them off and shuffled across the short distance separating his bed from Dallas's.His legs were weak and unsteady, threatening to give out with every step, but he forced himself to keep moving until he stood just beside Dallas's bed.Up close, Dallas looked even worse. His skin had taken on a greyish tinge that reminded Carter sickeningly of a corpse, and his lips were cracked and bloodless.The strong, arrogant, ins

    Carter's eyes fluttered open to blinding white light. For theEverything hurt. Although this time it wasn’t the sharp, unbearable agony he vaguely remembered from before, instead it was a dull, persistent ache that radiated through his entire body as if he'd been hit by a truck.His arms throbbed, his stomach felt tender and stiff, and his head pounded with a headache so painful it made him want to close his eyes again and sleep for another week.He blinked slowly, trying to make sense of his surroundings.He saw the white ceiling tiles, heard the steady beep of monitors, and smelled the sharp, antiseptic scent of a medical facility. For the second time that week, he was waking up in a hospital."He's awake!"The shout came from somewhere to his left, and suddenly there was commotion everywhere.People in white coats rushed to his bedside, shining lights in his eyes, checking his pulse, and asking him rapid-fire questions he couldn't quite process."Can you hear me? Can you tell me yo

    "What?" Dallas stopped his mindless pacing, his entire world grinding to a halt. He listened hard with his superior werewolf hearing, searching for the steady thump-thump of Carter's heartbeat.Silence.Nothing but the sounds of the mansion, the breathing of the medical team, and the whisper of wind through the broken window.Carter's heart had stopped. He was dead."That's not possible," Dallas said, his voice hollow and distant as though it was coming from someone else and not their powerful Alpha. Dallas continued, "He's barely been here a week. He's supposed to be with me for the rest of our lives. We have decades together, an entire lifetime. He can't be dead."His words sounded insane even to his own ears, but Dallas refused to accept it. Dr. Thorne shook his head slowly; "If he were a werewolf, he would likely have survived this. Our healing abilities would have kicked in and closed these wounds within hours. But he is human, Alpha." His voice was gentle and apologetic whil

    Common sense told Dallas that he couldn't move Carter from where he lay bleeding out on the bathroom floor. He had no idea if lifting him would make things worse, or cause more internal damage, or hit something vital that was barely holding together.But common sense also told him that he couldn't just sit here and watch Carter die.His wolf was raging inside him, claws and fangs extending involuntarily as fury unlike anything he'd ever felt consumed him from the inside out.His brother had done this. Marcus had violated his home, had attacked his mate, had nearly killed the one person Dallas had spent seven years searching for.The human hospital was over an hour away through winding forest roads. Carter would bleed out long before they made it halfway there. Even if Dallas drove like a madman, broke every traffic law and ran every single red light, it still wouldn't be fast enough.Which left only one option.Dallas pulled out his phone with blood-slicked fingers and dialled the h

  • One Night Stand With The Enemy Alpha: An MxM Romance   Chapter Twenty Four - Impossible Mind Link

    DALLAS’S POVDallas was halfway through explaining the security protocols for the upcoming Moon Festival when a soft voice hit his mind out of nowhere.Dallas. Please. I need you.He froze mid-sentence, his phone still pressed to his ear. The voice was unmistakable; it was Carter’s desperate terrified voice, and it was fading fast. But that was impossible. Mind links only worked between an Alpha and their pack members, and Carter was human. Completely, utterly human.And yet there the voice was in his head again. Come find me, Dallas. Please. He felt Carter’s consciousness brushing against his own, begging for help with a desperation so strong that it made Dallas’s blood run cold with dread.“I have to go,” Dallas said abruptly, ending the call without waiting for a response. He was already moving quickly, his body responding before his brain fully caught up.The problem was that he had no idea where Carter was at all. The Cross mansion was massive; over fifty rooms spread across f
