Chapter 119
(Author’s POV)
“He is Lucius Everests’ son?” Caiten couldn’t believe what he was hearing. He wasn’t able to contain his flabbergasted state as his eyes widened in shock, looking at Noah with a face full of disbelief.
“Yes he is Alpha Lucius’s son. Hanson Gilbert even called himself this boy’s grandfather. So, he has both Alpha and Beta blood within him. But fortunately, despite all that from what I heard, he seems to have a weak wolf and cannot change into it.” Keith added, “Maybe that’s why his wolf scent cannot be traced and we took him as human p>
“It seems to make sense. Father, don’t worry. I will not leave Sara’s side this time.” Caiten assured his father although he still was trying to process that information. It was rather odd for someone to have both Alpha and Beta blood to be perceived weak.
“Good. Son, tell me if you need a hand. I won’t hesitate to set things straight.” Keith was powered up.
Caiten replied, “I will handle it by myself, father. You must be tired after the long journey, you should rest p>
The mind link disconnected as Caiten eyed Noah with a different mindset.
Noah turning out to be a werewolf was bad news for Caiten. No matter how weak his wolf was or wasn’t but the fact that he had an Alpha King’s blood coursing through his veins. Caiten was wary of Noah now.
And also, as long as Noah was a human being, no matter how much Sara liked Noah or no matter how deeply in love they both were with each other, Nathan Allen wouldn’t have approve of Noah. But now, that the tables have turned and Noah is a werewolf, Caiten couldn’t wait any longer. He needed to eliminate this threat once and for all.
For the next few hours, Caiten was glued to Sara, not giving her and Noah any chance to converse. He followed her everywhere, like a lost puppy, stating his injury as an excuse. For the first time, Sara was slightly annoyed by his persistence but seeing his dejected and downcast face, she didn’t say anything. They were friends after all, so she didn’t want to make him feel bad.
Six hours passed by like that and the nurse came out of the Intensive Care Unit with good news. She walked towards the group and asked them, “Who is her family p>
Sara exclaimed, “I am her sister p>
The nurse continued with a serious look, her tone all professional, “The patient has regained consciousness. You can visit her now, but please be careful. She hasn’t fully recovered and cannot be stressed p>
Sara nodded in understanding. She was happy to hear that her sister was finally awake. She made her way towards the room, the others followed her behind.
Greg and Sara were happy that Bella was awake and fine.
But on the other side, Caiten wasn’t happy at all. He frowned internally, cursing at Bella ’This wench surely does have luck on her side. Even after getting smashed in the head like that, she was still able to regain consciousness so early, damn. Is she a wolf or a cat? Hope, she doesn’t utter nonsense in front of Ras p>
With quiet steps, they all wore hospital gowns and masks for patient safety and entered the Unit in order.
Bella was lying on the hospital bed, her body attached with several wires as her head was covered with layers of bandages. Her eyes were half opened as she blinked and looked at Sara with a tired and weak looking smile.
Sara got emotional to see her sister’s fragile state. She couldn’t help but tear up a little. The person, who was so vibrant and cheerful just a few hours ago, was now connected to some machines and wires. Her face looked gaunt and colorless. She was heartbroken to see Bella.
She then trailed her eyes from her sister to Greg, who was standing on Sara’s left. Her lips made a thin line. She had a worried look in her eyes as she wanted to know about his injuries.
Greg immediately understood what she was thinking and comforted her, his voice gently and soft, “Bell, I am fine. Nothing happened to me, see.” He tried to sound as cheerful as possible. He didn’t want her to sulk for him. It would be bad for her own health.
Sara was observing her sister’s face as tears kept flowing down her cheeks. Before Noah could do anything, Caiten stepped forward and comforted Sara. He patted her back soothingly, his voice was tender, “It is okay Sara. See, Bell is fine now. She is awake. She is even smile at you. You don’t want to see her worried, umm p>
As soon as Bella saw Caiten standing amongst the crowd, her smile vanished almost instantly. Her face turned ugly as she was disgusted by his mere presence. All the things that happened inside the hotel room came rushing to her, she was peeved at his audacity to even show his face. She wanted to say something but as she was still under the influence of anesthesia so no words came out of her mouth. This infuriated her even more and irked her, as her blood pressure spiked up.
Noah and Greg became alert and instantly called for the doctor. Greg even tried to shove Caiten out of the room. His presence would only escalate Bella foul mood. He told him point blank, “Mr. Snow, you need to leave. Bella does not want you here p>
Caiten tried to retaliate, “But I did nothing wrong. It was all just a misunderstanding. She doesn’t know that, we will tell her the whole story, right Sara. Tell her, I will not hurt her.” He was insistent and was not budging. To be honest, he was enjoying seeing Bella’s infuriated figure. She was struggling and gasping, as her condition was changing drastically.
Sara turned towards Caiten and told him sternly, “Caiten, I think Greg is right. You should wait outside. Bella does not want to see you right now. And in her condition, we cannot press her any further. You better leave. When her situation is stabilized, I will tell her about what conspired at the hotel.” She was firm with her words and didn’t wanted to take any chances. For her, Bella’s physical and mental health was the top priority.
Caiten was left speechless. He was unwilling to leave Sara with Noah. But now, when Sara herself has asked him to go, he couldn’t say anything in return. With clenched fists and gritted teeth, he left the room. His eyes were burning with fury as he kept cursing Bella relentlessly, ’This crazy bitch. She is always there to poke her nose in my business. Can’t she just simply lie down quietly on that hospital bed? Why does she have to overreact while seeing me? Bloody fucking hell with that cunt. Before that leech Noah, I will have to take care of this twat first. She is such a pain in my ass p>
Tensen grunted inside him, as he suggested, “Why don’t we just finish this ordeal? If something were to happen to that imbecile bitch, Bella inside the Moon Shine Pack, both Sara and Alpha Nathan won’t forgive this pack and its members.” He scoffed as he devised an evil plan.
Caiten pressed his lips and thought for a while about what Tensen said. He was unsure of doing something to Bella here. After all, it was risky. There were many eyes on him right now. He asked Tensen, his tone a bit hesitant, “Are you sure? The risk is high p>
Tensen’s voice was full of assurance. He tried to convince Caiten, “Sure, the risk is pretty high, but so is the reward, Cai. If that wench is out of the picture, we can simply put the blame on the pack’s doctor for his lousy treatment. This way, the relationship between these two packs, Blue Mountain and Moon Shine, will also sour and worsen. See, this pack belongs to Lucius Everests and Noah is his son, right. So, he too will be held responsible for this. We can strike two birds with one stone, just like that.” He sounded confident.
“If this happens, Alpha Nathan would never forgive them for such a lapse. Forget about accepting Noah and Sara’s relationship, he would go on a war with Moon Shine pricks. Sara will also distance herself for this leech. Tensen, I must say this. You are such an evil wolf,” Caiten murmured under his breath.
Tensen grinned with pride. He was excited to eradicate the two thorns completely from Sara’s side.
Inside the Intensive Care Unit, Bella’s blood pressure kept on rising at an alarming rate. The doctors came rushing to her side and treated her immediately. Bella’s nurse asked everyone to leave as Bella’s condition was getting worse.
After injecting Bella with sedative and stabilizing her condition, the attending doctor came out. He was vexed as he scolded them, “The patient’s condition isn’t fully stable yet. She was not to be stressed in any circumstances. The nurse must have told you that p>
