Chapter Sixty–Two
The doctor was stuffing more and more gauze into the wound, throwing the blood–soaked ones to the ground. He became more and more panicked as the used gauze pile grew. “What’s wrong?” My father stepped up to the
bedside.
“It’s not closing.”
“What do you mean?” My father grabbed the Doctor’s arm, but he shook him off.
“The lupine saline should have flushed a lot of the wolfsbare from his system, but he’s still not healing. He’s losing too much blood.” The doctor shoved more gauze into the wound and looked up. Sweat beaded down his face and his eyes were wide. “1…I, I don’t think he will pull through.”
“Fuck that.” My dad grabbed both of his shoulders. “You save him.”
“Alpha…” The doctor shook himself. “We need blood then.”
“Take mine.” My father held out his arm, and the doctor shook his head.
“You are A positive, the beta is O negative. He can only take O negative blood.”
My father staggered back to a chair that was behind him. He slammed into the chair and dropped his head between his legs, almost defeated. “Take mine.” I held out my arm and my dad snapped his head up.
“What?”
“I’m Onegative. Take my blood. Save him.” I shook my arm in front of the doctor, and I watched as his shoulder sagged, and he nodded to Sarah.
She pulled me to the head of the bed and then pulled another chair over for me to sit in. She ran out of the room and came back with another package that she tossed onto the bed. She washed her hands and pulled on new gloves. Then she ripped open the package and pulled out a new IV. She grabbed my right arm and placed it on the bed next to Ronnie. “Thankfully, we are wolves.”
“What does that mean?” I watched her as she inserted the needle into my arm.
“It means if we were human, I’d have had to take your blood and run it through a ton of tests before it would be able to be used. With us being wolves, I can just hook you up directly to the Beta.” She attached my tube to his IV, and my blood flowed from me, directly into him. “Tell me if you start feeling dizzy.”
“Alpha, call for juice, water and protein for Amy. She will need to replenish her blood as we take it. We will need far more than she should normally give in one go.” My father nodded and he sat back, with in a few minutes, a cart of food was rolled in by an omega.
“Thank you Shantelle.”
“You are welcome Alpha.”
“Thank you. But don’t tell anyone what you saw here, Shantelle.” I smiled as gently as I could.
“Amy?”
“I have a plan.” I looked at my dad and he nodded. I turned back to Shantelle. “Do you mind?” I started, and she shook her head.
“Go ahead Amy. I understand.”
I pulled my aura up and as gently as I could. “I command you not to tell anyone what you have seen here. You will

spread the word that the Beta is dead. Do as I command if anyone asks, but keep track of who asks you of the Beta’s condition and report it to me or my father instantly. Do you understand?”
Shantelle’s eye glazed over as the command took control. “Yes Alpha.”
“Dismissed.” I sent her on her way and tucked my aura back away.
“What are you planning?” My father leaned forward. I ignored the doctor and his nurses, knowing they would keep their mouths shut.
“I want whoever that did this to think they succeeded. I want them to think they got away with it. And I want to use this to trap them.”
“Amy? What is going on?” I drank down a juice and held up a hand as I quickly ate a sandwich. I felt a little lightheaded and needed to eat something. “I feel like you have figured out something and I am still fumbling around in the dark.”
I tried my best to meet his eyes, I really did, but I knew he wasn’t going to like what I was about to say. “It’s Beck, daddy.”
“What?”
“I need to you listen to what I’m going to say, without interrupting, and think before you jump to defend him. I need you to think clearly, without thinking about your past. Promise me.” I finally looked at him, and he gave me a quick nod. “Aurora escaped the Gamma, which should have been impossible for her strength. She also managed to attack him and put him down long enough to get off pack land, but he didn’t mind–link anyone. Ronnie found him unconscious by her cell.” I waited for him to nod before I went on. “Then there was the attack. The rogues knew intimate details of the pack and our procedures, stuff that Aurora alone wouldn’t have known. Something the Gamma would. And now, Beck is back up and running, and Ronnie is attacked, almost killed. Would have been killed without the secret training your dad put you two through.
