Falling in love with my Ex's Alpha Chapter 117

***Katherine***

Seeing Kaiden and Chad fighting like that made me feel awful.

I can't help but think that maybe they are in this situation because of me.

Before I came into Kaiden's life, his relationship with Chad was great.

Chad considers Kaiden like a brother, but their relationship hasn't seemed very good since Kaiden and I started getting together.

Today, the situation has gone beyond the limits.

I left the Training Center so quickly that it felt like the place was on fire.

I just wanted to go home and get ready to go to the hospital.

Kaiden tried to talk to me but he received a message via mindlink and said we'll talk later.

I took a deep breath and continued on my way to the hospital.

But I can't help but feel like something is off.

I feel like something bad is going to happen. I try to shrug off that feeling.

Maybe it's my wolf that I never met, or maybe it's just seeing Kaiden and Chad fighting.

Anyway, I try to put that feeling aside as I help Dr Smith with some patients.

Today, I have his son as my partner; the other students are with other doctors, and I was honestly relieved that I didn't end up with Laila when Dr Smith drew to see who would be whose partner.

Another day, I could have put up with her, but today, I don't know if I could stay calm with her ridiculous comments.

There are few patients in the hospital today, and Chloe told me how relieved she was that today the hospital was empty as soon as I arrived.

"Katie, give these documents to Chloe and get the file 473DC from the document room for me," Dr. Smith asks me, and I give a curt nod and head towards reception.

Mark takes advantage of me leaving the room and immediately starts arguing with his father. I'm relieved not to be in the middle of what appears to be a family discussion.

As I walk through the hospital corridors, the feeling that something is off continues to permeate my mind.

I feel a shiver down my spine and try to think of something else.

I greet some people on the way until I arrive at the reception.

From afar, I see Chloe talking, slightly lowered to the height of two children who look no more than 12 years old.

I recognize them, they are from one of the packs that Kaiden won in the last round of the tournament.

From where I'm walking, I can't hear what they're talking about, but I see that there are only them at reception, which usually has more people.

I'm thinking about getting some candies that are in my bag to give to the children when I go to the document room. Maybe that will cheer them up a little, as they seem a little sad.

As soon as my foot steps into the reception entrance, I freeze, as suddenly several ferocious wolves enter the reception through the main entrance, which, from their cruel look, don't seem to be from this pack.

The wolves head towards Chloe and the kids, and Chloe immediately gets in front of them and shifts. I immediately confirm by the way she's groaning that they're rogues!

The children are as paralyzed as I am, they also can't shift. The first three wolves advance faster than Chloe's wolf can defend herself.

They attack her ferociously, one in the belly, another in the back paw and another in the neck.

"No!" I scream as I see Chloe's wolf whimper in pain.

She remains in front of the children, trying to prevent them from being attacked, too, but she is not strong enough compared to the three rogues.

My legs finally come to life, and I run towards the children.

I don't have a wolf to defend them, but I don't think twice about trying to help them.

But it's too late!

Before I even get close to them, other wolves are already attacking the children. Each one is quickly torn apart in such a violent and cruel way that the scream gets stuck in my throat.

*What's happening here?*

My mind floods with images of the nightmares I had with Kaiden, and I wonder if I'm still in one of them, but the children's blood on the floor is too vivid to be just my subconscious.

"Help! Help!" I shout, trying to warn the people at the hospital to get ready, and immediately, some students and teachers shift and start coming towards the reception.

The rogue wolves come towards me to do to me probably what they did to the children and Chloe, and I close my eyes, already expecting the worst.

However, when I open my eyes seconds later, they are not coming towards me; in fact, it is a real pandemonium!

The wolves are fighting with other wolves; one of them almost falls on top of me, and I run towards Chloe and the children to try to save them.

Goddess Selena, please help me save them!

As soon as I get close to the children, I can't even kneel towards them because they are all mutilated; their heads are not connected to their bodies.

It's impossible for me to cure something like this! Somehow, I know this! But I don't know how I know this.

My eyes see so much blood, my mind tries to understand the scene in front of me, but it's too painful. The children's small body parts are lying on the floor... It's such a perverse scene.

I just have time to turn around and throw up everything I ate after training.

Tears come out of my eyes, and I wipe them away and head towards Chloe when I see that her hand is still moving.

I kneel down next to her body, she is unconscious and covered in blood.

The rogues' bites tore her body apart; she sacrificed herself to save the children, and in the end, the children ended up dying.

More tears come out of my eyes, and I don't have second thoughts before using my power to heal her.

No, not Chloe, not her!

She's such a good person!

Please, Goddess Selena!

I feel my hand warming up and the wound on Chloe's neck healing slightly. I bend down even more and give her a crooked hug to increase the contact surface between my skin and hers.

Maybe if more of my body could do what my hands do, it might heal her faster.

I glance around and immediately regret it because half the wolves that were fighting are dead.

When they die, they shift into human form, but they are so disfigured that I can't tell who they are.

I also don't know who is who because I don't recognize rogues by their stench.

But I pray to the Moon Goddess that it is not the members of Diamond Claw. I don't even want to think about the possibility of it being my classmates or the wolves of someone I know.

Chloe's head moves suddenly beneath me as if she's writhing in pain, and I immediately look toward her face.

However, I continue with the hug, with her face towards my neck.

She takes a deep breath, and then she widens her eyes at me. I immediately realize that she has just discovered my secret.

But I couldn't let her die in front of me.

"It's going to be okay," I assure her. She tries to tell me something, probably about what I'm doing to her, but she writhes in pain as she tries, "Don't say anything; it's going to be okay," more tears come down my cheeks to see her like that.

"Kat-t-tie," Chloe tries to speak, but her voice breaks.

I don't let go of the hug, I try to do my best to heal her because I feel like she's almost dying.

If I don't use everything I can on her, she will die because there is nothing that can heal her here in the hospital.

Her wounds are absolutely severe.

Again, when I think the fights are over, more wolves enter the reception and start fighting those who are already here.

However, this time, they are not alone; they are accompanied by some people, and they have some weapons and black masks.

Again, what's going on here?

Where are the warriors?

Where is the safety of this pack, for Goddess' sake?

I can't see their faces due to the mask, but from the way they're sprinting towards me, they're not here to joke.

I need to heal Chloe faster; she won't resist if I die here.

However, one of the four guys already in front of me points a gun at me, and I immediately freeze.

He makes a gesture as if he's telling me to get up with his gun, but I don't let go of Chloe.

If necessary, I will defend her like she defended the children.

The guy on the left lifts me by my hair, and I struggle in his firm hands, "No, let me go, please, stop!" I cry out.

However, he answers me not with words but with a punch to my face so hard that everything immediately starts spinning and getting blurry.

*How I wish I had at least met my wolf*...

It's a selfish thought, but it's the last thing I think before darkness takes over me.
