The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87 

I hear more growls and then a loud thunk against the side of our car causing us to wobble side to side. Jeeves says some choice words under his breath, but keeps the SUV up to speed while making a few corrections to keep us from flipping. He could probably be a stunt driver if he wanted to. 

“OH SH*T!” I screech as a bloody head collides with the window across from me. Then the glass of the back hatch explodes. I duck to avoid the shards and another thump against the car sends us spinning. This time all of us yell, but Jeeves works his magic through the spinout. 

“Kennedy! Don’t move from this spot do you understand? No matter what. You wait for one of us to get you out, got it?” Danny yells at me, his eyes wild over the back seat. 

“Yeah, I got it.” I shake some of the glass off of me as they both jump out of the SUV. I stayed huddled up next to the door for what seemed like hours, but was probably minutes. Listening to the snapping and growling of teeth. The sounds of fur being ripped and whines from wolves who are injured. I can’t tell who is who and not knowing is driving me nuts, but I can’t look either. The fact that no one has checked the car now that it’s stopped is a good sign that they don’t know I’m here, which is keeping me alive. 

Then a vibrating growl rips through the air shaking the SUV and my body down to my bones. Ryker. I hear a few more sounds after that and then nothing. I feel like I have gone deaf, until I hear the screech of the door as it’s yanked off the SUV and I tumble out into arms. 

I yelp and hear “She’s okay.” Bennet. Bennet found me. I’m safe. 

I start to curl in towards him, the adrenaline making me shake, but another growl has him setting me on my feet instead. I wobble a little, blinking, but then I feel tingles on my arms and look up into blazing green eyes. 

“You’re bleeding.” His voice is gruff and irritated. 

“We didn’t do a thorough sweep of your bag, there could be a tracker anywhere in it.” 

“Then why didn’t they keep attacking the SUV? If they were after me, not coming after me when we stopped was a mistake, don’t you think?” He’s vibrating with anger now. He doesn’t like being questioned, but I’m not one of his pack members, nor am I a subordinate, He can’t stop me. I’m not trying to make him angry, though. I’m trying to understand where his mind is and what the motive of our attackers was. 

I have a huge desire to reach out and touch his arm, to try and calm him down. I move on instinct, I have nothing else to work with right now. My fingertips brush the hairs on his arms and I can feel the tingles start, but he pulls away before I can make full contact and my heart sinks. I feel even lower than when I watch Jeremiah induct Rayna into Silver Crescent. 

Bennet must have caught my mood change because he’s right beside me, arm around my shoulders, holding me up. I am drained all of a sudden. I don’t really pay attention to what happens next. I am bundled into an SUV with four warriors, two in the front seats and two sandwiching me in the back. Someone gave me a blanket and I finally fall asleep.
