BOY
Nolan stood unmoving as it seemed that his world came to an abrupt stop. He felt like he had lost everything that very moment, as his wife and daughter lay unconscious on the ground.
He could still hear Noelle’s heartbeat but the same couldn’t be said for Layla whose heartbeats were very faint. She was literally half dead.
“This is what you get… ” Carla never got to finish her statement as a blow came flying towards her.
Nolan hit her so hard that she lost three of her teeth and she began to bleed.
Carla staggered back, clutching her mouth and groaning in pain. She looked up at Nolan, her eyes wide with shock and fear.
Carla knew it was over, Nolan was never going to spare Jet, not from the look he had on his face
But she won at least, Layla would never get Nolan and she made sure of that and turned out victorious. Nolan would not also lose Layla but the unborn child she was carrying.
A cold satisfaction settled over Carla as she realized that, even though she had been defeated, she had still won in some way. She may not have gotten what she wanted, but she had still caused Nolan and Layla pain, and that was enough for her.
Before she knew it, she saw ten wolves running out from different directions.
The brown and black ones were Darren and Xander. They must have felt the Alpha’s pain that’s why they came running thinking he was in danger.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
But no one knew that the pain he felt was from seeing his whole family in that state. He was in distress.
“Kill them” were the only words from Nolan.
His eyes were bloodshot. He looked dangerous and bloodthirsty. Carla’s eyes traveled to his hands and she could see his claws already sticking out.
He had gone feral.
Carla’s heart skipped a beat as she realized the danger she was in. She had pushed Nolan too far, and now he was out of control. She had never seen him like this before, and she knew that there was no reason with him in this state.
She turned to run, but it was too late. The wolves were already upon her, their teeth bared and their eyes glowing with hunger.
It did not take five minutes as different wolves started running towards Carla.
Carla screamed, but her cries were drowned out by the snarling of the wolves.
She tried to fight them off, but there were too many of them. And then, she felt a sharp pain as one
Nolan Controlled himself and retracted his claws. Layla was still alive, he could feel it. The mate bond was still there, though it was now lying on a thin thread as he could feel only a little of it.
She needed to be taken to the hospital immediately
Loud screams of agony were heard as Nolan ran to Layla, who was lying in a pool of her own blood.
He knelt down lifelessly in front of her and could feel his eyes watering at the sight in front of him.
The brown and black wolves arrived in front of him as she transformed into the human form of Xander and Darren.
“F*ck..” Xander caused it. They were only in shorts.
“She’s still alive..” Darren informed him of Layla’s pulse. She had long gone unconscious.
Nolan felt a surge of hope when Darren said that Layla was still alive. But his hope was quickly dashed as he saw the extent of the blood she wasted.
“What do we do?” Darren asked, looking at Xander for guidance.
“We have to get her to a hospital,” Xander said, his voice firm.
“Take Noelle..” Nolan uttered and Xander quickly squatted to remove Noelle from Layla’s arms.
From the way she held her tight, one could tell how much effort she had put in in saving her daughter. It was as if she never wanted to let her go.
Nolan carried Layla in his arms and the next minute he was gone.
…..
“Alpha..” The doctor called, a little fear hinted in her voice as she approached Nolan who was seated on the bench, with bloodied clothes.
News had gone around the pack on how the Luna was shot while trying to save her daughter.
“How’s Layla?” Nolan asked in a very cold voice. No expression ghosted his face.
“I can’t tell for… ” She immediately paused as Nolan suddenly looked at her with a very cold glare. If eyes could kill, she was sure she would already be dead.
She knew better than anyone to relay her message to him cautiously.
” She’s in a coma..” she announced and she saw Nolan’s jaw stiffen.
“The baby?” He asked with the same cold expression
Layla did not think before acting, she should never have been in that situation. He could have been shot instead. A single bullet was not going to hurt him.
Not even Noelle, she was an Alpha’s daughter but that never meant he was going to allow his daughter to get shot.
” Luckily the fetus was not dead before the Luna was here and we were able to perform a quick surgery and brought the baby out in time. Your son is perfectly healthy and is in an incubator.. ” the doctor announced. At least it was better to share one good news. They felt it was better to save one life than lose the two, and the baby’s life was saved.
Nolan didn’t even know how to react to the needs he literally felt nothing. He was supposed to rejoice with Layla, not without her. Life felt bitter and void without her in his life. She was his light and he loved her more than anything in this life, and he would never think of living without her.
When he lost Vera, he remained strong as he needed to fulfill his duties to the people. But none of that mattered anymore. What mattered was Layla being with him.
“And Noelle?” He asked, his deep voice coming out in almost a. Whisper.
“She’s fine. The princess is perfectly fine, there were no signs of injury on her..”
“Good. Do everything within your power and license to save my Luna. Or else I’ll seize your medical license, shut down this damn hospital and then kill you.. ” He threatened in a deep voice and then he was gone for the next few minutes.
He did not care how the doctor did it, but she would make sure to save Layla as he couldn’t see himself explaining to the kids how he lost their mother.
