234 Chapter Two Hundred Thirty Four

Honour gave orders to the rest of the junior hunters and wolves that were giving first aid to the injured. The rest that was left was nothing they couldn’t handle. However, what ushered her away from the treating grounds was none other than Trevor Waters. The boy wanted her to lead him to the human she’d mentioned with severe injuries. An entire first aid kit was saved for the human as well as he was bound to be unable to heal. The terrifying detail he’d heard, however, was the fact that the boy had been bitten by an alpha of all wolves.

“What makes you think this boy was bitten by an alpha, to begin with, and what was a human doing with the werewolves out in the woods at twilight?” the junior hunter bellowed as they rushed through the halls of the hotel, led by the junior hunters that had taken the boy to his room. Tense was the air about them, except for Honour whose only job had been to patch the boy up to the best of her abilities.

“I know this because I took some time working with the pack doctor back at home. Healing is one of the things a werewolf as weak as I am ought to learn if they are ever going to be of any help in the end. The bite marks of an alpha aren’t the same as those of an average werewolf. I’ll show you once we get there even though I’d hate to force a patient to go through something like that,” she said to him.

Finally rounding one more corner, the junior hunters came to the door that belonged to the boy and knocked at door. After waiting a few painstakingly long seconds, the sound of the key turning the lock came through from the other side of the door. The door creaked open and to their surprise, a feminine face popped up from the other side of the door. “What is a girl... You know what... I don’t even want to know anymore. I’ve had to deal with a lot more than this today. Where is the boy?”



'

The girl, who was dressed in a robe led them to the boy who lay in a bed with numerous bandages on his boy. Trevor froze at the sight before him. This was perhaps the one person who’d been injured the most among all that had been involved in the battle, “I tried to tell him to stay behind, but he wouldn’t listen to me,” the girl began.

“Try to refrain from lying,” Lina snapped at the girl, shutting up her sobs, “You went with him. There is no doubt about that and you can’t say you were going to keep him safe and make sure he didn’t do anything stupid when the stupidest thing he could have done was stepping out of the hotel at night.”

“Lina...”

“Someone is not the same person I had come to know. Anyway, Honour, if you don’t mind, I would like you to explain how it is you came to the conclusion that this boy was bitten by an alpha,” Trevor asked.

“Well, if I’m to show that to you, I’d have to take off the boy’s bandages and trust me... that is going to hurt him,” Honour replied. However, she brought out the first aid box and opened it to retrieve a pair of scissors.



.....

“No, wait... What if I could prove he’d been bitten by an alpha without you having to open his bandages. He’s been through a lot of pain already,” the girl yelled at them when Honour was just about to get to opening the boy’s wounds, “I might not have kept him from going and even gone with him myself, but... I do care for him. Don’t cause him any more pain than he’s already been through.”

Honour looked between the girl and the head junior hunter, “Well, what is your final verdict?”

The boy sighed before answering, “What do you have in mind, girl... and make it quick.”

The girl sat down crosslegged and took in a deep breath before letting her robe drop to the ground revealing her naked upper body with only a bra to cover her body. “Oh my... cover up... Are you going to strip...?”

“Oh shut up, pervert. Would you take a look at her back before you say something you’ll regret saying?” Honour smacked the boy’s head, “And you... Why didn’t you ask to be treated? That will get infected if you don’t pay attention?”

Honour grabbed the first aid box and rushed to the girl to begin cleaning the large bite mark on her back. The room fell into silence for a moment while the girl got to work on the injured human girl. “I figured he was in a much worse condition than I was. He had to get treated before I did and I had to make sure he was put in bed to rest.”

“Well, after taking care of him, why didn’t you come for treatment yourself?” Honour replied... the girl barely replied when she spoke up, “You were bitten by the same wolf, weren’t you?”

“Yes, I was... I don’t think the girl that saved us even realized what kind of wolf it was. I’d just been bitten when he threw himself in the way to save me. We got separated from our friends when the chaos began. Not having a mind link makes it impossible for your werewolf friend to find you in chaos when the mind link is all that werewolves depend on. By the time they found us, Peter... he’d gotten himself beaten up pretty badly trying to protect me.”

“So you figured you could help him out by making sure he got treated... After all, you were going to heal up eventually after being bitten by an alpha,” the girl gasped at the accusation and her back stiffened, “don’t move so suddenly, you’ll start bleeding again.”

“Oh, right...” she complied, relaxing under Honour’s care, “Well, yeah, that is what I thought would happen, but...”

“Nothing is happening to either of you,” Trevor replied calmly, “What if you shifted then? Your plan... What if it worked and you inherited the will of the alpha that bit you? What were you going to do then? Attack all the humans in the hotel and bring forth an even bigger tragedy than what we are facing at the current moment.” He was yelling by the time he was done.

“That’s not it...” was all the girl could reply in an effort to keep from exploding, “You don’t know what it’s like Trevor. To be bitten by a werewolf... to be cornered by a werewolf and think your time has finally come. To watch your boyfriend get bitten just because he’s trying to protect you. A human against an alpha...”

“That’s not his job, damn it. That’s my job. As a hunter, I’m the one meant to carry the burden of protecting you from werewolves. Your job is to stay put where I say is safe and make sure you stay that way... Make sure you stay alive. How could you have been so stupid?” it was as though everything the distressed girl said made the head hunter only angrier.

“But you weren’t there. We all make mistakes, Trevor and now that we’ve made ours, you can’t possibly relate to what it must feel like. To get bitten by an alpha and survive it... It’s like being cursed. None of us will ever be the same again. When we do shift, will you put us down the very same way you’ve been trained to put them down?”

Trevor went dead silent and looked back at the girl seated being treated. He’d never been asked this question before and facing the reality that not all rogues were forced into being rogues was only harder. After all the training he’d been taken through, he’d never questioned what he was taught until this moment, “No one will ever be turned by a bite ever again, so don’t worry about it, okay.”

“What is that supposed to mean, Trevor?” Honour and Lina asked him at the same time.

“The moon goddess’ chosen were both marked. The power of the royals must be restricted now. The power to turn a human into their werewolf has been lost,” Trevor replied.

“You can’t possibly believe such a thing?” the girl’s voice came cold.

“I don’t understand. Isn’t that good news for you?” Trevor asked her, the happiness that had previously welled up inside him diminishing completely. ‘Had she planned to shift and take everyone here down with her. Has the will of the alpha that bit her already gone so deep?’

“No, Peter won’t be able to heal. I have tried my cell phone. There is no service here. That treatment won’t be able to heal him. He can barely move as it is. His last hope was that the transformation would heal all his wounds,” the girl replied.

“You would have him turn into a bloodthirsty beast and kill hundreds more than doing everything you can to get him to a hospital,” Trevor asked her.

“Were you asleep during the ride here? We are very far from the capital or any form of civilization. There is no way we could make it to a medical centre in his condition,” the girl argued. ‘Try not to move so suddenly...’

“Do you know why it would be so hard for me to answer your question, Lyla? If the two of you were to become werewolves, you would have no control over your wolf sides. Without the time to mature them and learn control, they would overwhelm you and you would start to attack the very creatures the hunters are sworn to protect. So yeah... I would put you and your boyfriend down if you shifted,” the silence fell over the entire room, “the only hope the two of you have is to make it to a medical centre and you will make it there.”
