Chapter Six

When pack enforcers came for Alessio, he’d already lost a lot of blood. He remained immobile on the floor by his bed after contacting Jared, a red strain spreading underneath him. In this position, Alessio had a perfect view of the bed. Only hours ago, he and Kelias had lain in his fucking bed, spooned together. He remembered thinking, marveling at the perfect fit of his body against Kelias’s lean one. Although Alessio knew he should feel nothing but hatred for the traitor who stuck a knife into his chest, his wolf remembered the warm press of Kelias’s body, Alessio’s erection pressing against the curve of his ass.

“Fuck,” he croaked. He heard footsteps outside, barging in past his still-open door. More curses. A woman bent over him. He recognized Jane, Jared’s sister and one of the pack enforcers. Alessio trusted the siblings without reserve, because he, Sergio, and Michella practically raised them as their own.

“How’s Michella?” he asked, hating how weak he felt, and how fucking stupid he’d been, for trusting a stranger, and taking him home.

Still, lying in his own pool of blood, Alessio thought about Kelias. A part of him remembered how the half-demon hesitated, how he purposely missed Alessio’s heart. A stone-cold killer, especially one trained since he was a child, especially a member of the Order of the Knife, wouldn’t make such novice mistakes.

“Don’t speak, Alessio,” Jane said, looking at another figure. Isaac, another enforcer, was yelling for a healer. The pack healer, Ward, knelt in front of him, medical kit in hand. Alessio peered over his shoulder, seeing Jane talking in soft tones with Jared and Isaac.

Alessio snarled, finally getting their attention. “Michella. Is she alive?”

“She’s sustained critical injuries, but she’ll make it. Stay still,” Ward snapped. Alessio glared, but the healer ignored him. Ward always had that way about him, no nonsense and all business.

“Michella—”

“Dino and Raul are with her, guarding her apartment.” Jane assured Alessio, naming the pack’s other enforcers. “They won’t let her out of their sight.”

“Stop gawking and make yourselves useful,” Ward snapped. “Help me get him to the bed. The floor is cold.”

With their help, they moved Alessio to the bed. Ward moved quickly, ordering everyone about to get towels, boiled water, and gauze. Alessio knew what was coming. Gritting his teeth, he fought to remain conscious while Ward extracted the silver bullet from his shoulder.

“These fuckers came prepared,” Jared muttered, anger evident in his voice. He’d always been an angry pup, Alessio mused, despite the unserious, cheerful mask he liked to put on.

“Order of the Knife. These bastards need to be taught a lesson,” Isaac said. “Jane, have you told him?”

“Told me what?” Alessio demanded, beginning to sit up, but Ward shoved him back against the pillows, shooting him a warning look.

The three enforcers gave each other looks and Alessio had a feeling he knew what he’d say next.

“Alessio,” Jane said softly. “We called Sergio.”

“You had no right.” Alessio couldn’t keep the rage out of his voice.

“He is the Alpha, Ales,” Jane reminded him gently.
