Chapter 209
Xade’s pov
Each word from his mouth felt like a punch to the gut. I turned back to Avery, looking at her desperately as though this was some sort of horrible nightmare I could wake up from. Everything was crashing down around us.
But seeing her eyes, the way they glistened with pain and something else. Something I also feel. Fear. I knew this was not a nightmare but our sick twisted reality.
“How did this happen?” I growled, taking out my anger on the smaller man who cowered and took several steps away from me.
I could feel my own control slipping as a painful hiccup cry sound pushes out of her mouth. My gaze softens on hers. My poor baby.

Why were we doomed to suffer this much when we both only to love each other?
The doctor swallowed, I can hear the gulp before he responds in a soft tone. “It appears that it was triggered by the stress of everything going on. At least that is what I can tell for now. And combined with the fact that she’s pregnant, it seems it is worst.”
His words were not comforting the slightest and when he continues I wish he hadn’t.
We need to stabilize her, try to slow down the process before it kills her human soul. But I cannot do it here-
I whip to stare at him, my breathing hasting with frustration and distress.
What do you mean you cannot do it here?” I hissed, my wolf pacing in my head.” Where else could you possibly want me to take her?”
He cringes, shrinking a bit and looking over my shoulder at my father for silent help. “There is not enough equipment available here to keep her steady and try to slow down the process. We need to get her to the infirmary.”
“It’s too risky,” dad cuts in sharply. “We can’t risk her being out now. They’re onto us, they know where she is. Even though we are well guarded, we can’t risk her exposure. We can wait it out until night if it’s necessary-
“What the fuck do you mean if it’s necessary!?” I snarl, my wolf bursting through the surface. “I won’t have her suffer here any longer. I will take whatever risk to make sure she’ll be okay!” I snapped.
I agree. However, we are only one pack with now not only Alister on our ass but the most powerful hunter group. We are a huge pack, but not that huge to fight them all.”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Though I understood my father, Avery was too important to me for me to not risk everything I have for her. I couldn’t risk seeing her human side die, I couldn’t-
Xade,” Avery cry out in pain, her nails digging further into the sheets. I can hear the tears her nails caused and swallowed hard. She really was shifting before our eyes.
Tears welled in my vision and I sniffled. “We’ll try to make this easier baby,” I whisper brokenly, ashamed that I could not promise her that we will succeed since this is the first time we have seen this happen.
“We’re taking her to the infirmary,” I announced. “Stop me and I will behead anyone in my way,” My wolf warned, crawling up to the surface.
He meant every word. And he’d really do it, father or not, brother or not, he’d do it. He’d do it for her.
