Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Second Chance With The Alpha : Kabanata 151 - Kabanata 160

Kiara’s POV It felt as though someone punched me in the gut. None of her words made any sense to me but that name sent my emotions into chaos. An unknown fear had begun to grip me, the possibility of losing what I cherished most getting closer to reality. “Audrey?” Bella was the first to speak, “How the hell did she get here?” “She’s been living with us for months.” The receptionist said, “She recently completed her transformation into a witch.” “A what?” Bella shrieked, “That bitch. What did she do to my brother?” “Ma’am, you’re creating a scene in front of our guests.” She said, “May I please request you to step out?” Bella scoffed, “I’m not leaving without seeing my broth

The woman screamed in pain as another wave of contraction hit her. Beads of sweat covered her forehead as she fell back on the bed in exhaustion, her husband trying to soothe her in any way he could.  “Push, Alana!” Irene said as she took another piece of gauze from the tray. “The baby is crowning. We’re almost there.”  Another groan left the woman as she prepared for impact. Her dedicated husband supported her in his arms as she tried one last time to expel her baby out of her womb. The operation theater froze at once as the shrill of the baby boomed in our ears. I watched as the woman’s eyes widened in surprise, and then slowly, her lips stretched into a grin. She looked at her husband in disbelief, joy erupting from both their faces.  

There was chaos at the hospital yet again. By the time I finished rounds with one of the doctors, it was lunch time and he was kind enough to give us a break. These days, my schedule went something like this: Wake up early in the morning and study for an hour or two, get ready and go to college, attend lectures before going to the hospital, come back home rather late at night and study some more before going to sleep. Taking a break for lunch was a luxury we couldn’t always afford, so when I was given a chance, I usually tried to make the most out of it.  I had made a couple of friends here, but they were currently stuck in a surgery, leaving me to myself. It wasn’t really a bother because after dealing with so many people all day, I tended to appreciate some alone time as well. I had an hour before I had to report back to duty, so I decided to step out for lunch. 

“Dr Irene is on call.” The nurse came to my side right that instant, forcing me to peel my eyes off Audrey. Tucking the phone under my ear and shoulder, I said, “Yes?” “Kiara, I’m right now stuck in surgery and can’t make it there in time. I’ll be sending in my assistant George and he should know what to do. In the meantime, could you please check if the airway is patent?” I quickly hurried towards Marcus, standing behind his head. Opening his mouth, I tried to visualize his airway. I could see some soot and deposition, alarming me. “It doesn’t look good.” I mumbled on the phone. “Alright, let’s intubate him to be on the safe side.” She said, “Can you do that?” “Yes,” I said with hesitation. “Yes I can. I learned it just yesterday.” “Good. Get to it and relieve his airway. George should be there by then and will know how to proceed.” Tumbling the phone aside, I got to work. After choosing the appropriate tube, I opened his mouth to insert it inside. He was unconscious, mea

I couldn’t help but inwardly smirk at what he was proposing. This was something Bernard had already revealed to me a few days ago. He told me that one day Marcus would approach me regarding this ball and ask me to accompany me. According to Bernard, it was an opportunity I simply can’t let go of because it will help me get closer to Marcus again. While I wasn’t entirely approving of his methods, I knew that I had no other choice. This was my best shot and there was no way I could lose it. “Well,” I said, “When is it going to be?” “This weekend. That is in two days.”  “That’s going to be inconvenient. I have work to do.” “I can sort th
