Chapter 0600
Kristen POV Gunther hung up the phone and looked down at me. “How did you find me? Don’t get me wrong, I am very thankful but how?” Gunther sighed and sat down. “I'had a friend in that pack. He allowed me to hide out there as I tried to gather information and do what Colt wanted me to. I was there when Alec and all of them came in. They did a great job of terrorizing everything. It allowed me to hide in plain sight and ease drop on conversations. Ann was the one that suggested you get burned alive so Anthony said he would take you to an abandoned house. It took me awhile to get to you because I was having to go
from house to house to see which on you were at.” “Well, thank you for saving my life.
) I’m not sure how much longer I would have survived.” “Shit. Your wolf is deadly. She was working on getting you out as it was.” Gunther looked up at the sky. The sounds of a distant helicopter was approaching. Standing up, he had to shield his eyes from the sun.
«We are under some trees that isn’t going to allow them to land. We need to move to a clearing that is about a hundred yards out.” Gunther said.
Following his gaze, I watched as the helicopter circled us and then moved to :as “wonderful.” the East to land. “Wondertul.
“Keep that feisty spirit. vou will need it
to heal.” Gunther lifted a corner of his mouth up as he knelt down to pick me up.
“Is it really that bad?” I asked as through gritted teeth.
Gunther glanced down at me. I was pretty exposed so he was trying to avoid eye contact with me. Even him holding me, he tried to keep me at arms length. “Yes.” Was all he said. noveldrama
Looking behind him, I watched as the fire started sizzling out. Only a small flame was left but everything was still pulsating red. “KRISTEN!” Alec voice boomed acrossed the forest before I heard his footsteps.
“He’s not going to kill me for holding you, is he?” Gunther asked, quickly and quietly.
“No.” I'had to hide my laugh as Alec and Colt came into view.
“Kristen!” Alec’s eyes widen as he took on my appearance.
“Is it really that bad?” I asked as I reached for him.
Alec gently took me from Gunther but didn’t try to kiss me. “It’s bad. You need to get to a hospital.” “Thank you.” Colt held out his hand to Gunther.
“It was the right thing to do.” Guther looked rather uncomfortable.
«you could have let her die. You have my trust.” Colt vowed. Gunther looked shocked. His mouth opened and closed a few times before he came around to say anything.
“Twon’t break it.” Alec looked at him. “Thank you.” He said, sincerely. “Do you want a ride?” “No. I am going to stay and make sure the fire gets put out. Don’t want to start a forest fire.” Gunther took a few steps back.
“I’11 send some men out here to help you.” Colt promised as Alec turned and started walking back to the helicopter.
Their conversation became background noise. “I'm sorry I couldn’t protect Adalynn.” «you have nothing to be sorry for. You did everything in your power.” Alec was feeling a few different things.
Mainly, I could feel his wolf push
energy through our bond. However, he was not mad at me or felt anyway over the fact I didn’t protect Adalynn, It was only my guilt that I was feeling.
“I'm going to survive this...right?” I asked quietly as the helicopter came into view.
Alec didn’t answer but he walked faster to the helicopter. As he put me on, there was other guy I didn’t know but he was looking at me, weirdly. Colt came running up behind us.
“I am a trained EMT. Can I help you?” He asked me. I was struggling to sit up correctly and my wrist was still angled in a awkward position.
Colt got on and signaled to the pilot to take off. “What are you going to do?” 1 asked.
“Your body is completely covered in burns. It is about to get really windy and you are able to feel a lot of pain.
The name is Oliver.” “Okay.” I started to feel what he was saying and my body started shaking.
“Get on the floor and lay down.” Oliver unbuckled himself. “Make sure we don’t fly out.” He told Alec and Colt as he reached behind him and grabbed a first aid kit.
It hurt like a bitch to get on the ground but I did. First thing he did was take my wrist in his hands. I knew what he was going to do so I didn’t need to tell him I was ready. Instead, I reached for Alec’s hand and held on. After a moment, he pulled and pushed on my wrist, making a sickening snap.
“FUCK!” I growled. My eyes were closed so I wasn’t aware of what he was using but he put something firm under my wrist and started wrapping it.
“What is on her arms?” Colt asked.
“That would be burn marks made from mental. Unfortunately, those will probably scar since they are so deep.
Looks like mental chains were used to hold her down.” “The chains were nailed to the chair, which was nailed on the floor. My wrist snapped when I managed to break through.” I honestly didn’t even think about the mental chains. Opening my eyes, I tired to look at my arms and could clearly see the pattern that ran down them and across my chest.
“Whoever got your clothes off did a
hd great job.” Oliver muttered more to himself. Opening gauze packets, he drenched them in saline before putting them on my wounds. It stung at first but the pain eventually faded. “This might kill all your nerves.” “You mean to tell me she won’t be able to feel her body?” Alec asked.
