Chapter 2 Viper bite
CA SSANDRA
“Cas sandra?” Marley mudged me back into reality. Her pretty eyes were wide with concern. “Are you okay?”
I gulped, and then nodded as I pushed away my memories of Anemond. “Yes.”
I managed to pull myself together. I needed to be level-headed if we were going to heal this patient.
It didn’t take us long to reach the Pack House. The enormous mansion wasn’t
far from the clinic.
When we crossed through the doors, we were surprised to see a crowd of people hustling around. The Pack House seemed to be in a huge commotion, and I had to duck to avoid bumping into anyone around me. This was the most activity I’d seen here in a while.
“Wow,” Marley remarked as Jasper led us down the hall. “This must be serious. Everyone seems so upset.” She tugged at Jasper’s sleeve. “Can you tell us what’s going on?”
“The Alpha will tell you once we find him,” Jasper remarked.
“Oh,” Marley replied, and she let out a sigh. “So much secrecy.
I wanted to ask follow-up questions, but Jasper’s tone was so serious, I decided to wait. When we reached the end of the busy hall, a pair of people were waiting for us. One of them was Gareth, the Alpha of the Wild Crawler Pack, and the -other was his eldest son, Rayden.
We bowed respectfully when we stopped in front of them.
The Alpha of the Wild Crawler Pack was a stern man, yet fair, and he was
well-respected amongst the Pack. He was normally quite calm, but today, his brown eyes were wide with concern. Rayden wore a similar expression.
Rayden was tall, with big, dark brown eyes, and black hair that glinted blue in the light, and his perfect teeth were white as pearls. He was slim, but covered in exotic tattoos, and girls in the pack admired his high cheekbones and fit frame.
When I first arrived here five years ago, Rayden had been a young man of sixteen. Now he was all grown up, and it likely wouldn’t be long until he took his father’s place as Alpha of the Wild Crawlers.
I was a little surprised to see him here at the Pack House. The last time I’d seen him was two years ago at a dinner hosted by the Alpha’s family. It’d been a farewell dinner to celebrate Rayden’s departure for the Wegalla Empire’s army- an elite group known as the Myriad. It was an honor to be recruited, and so we’d honored the young man accordingly.
“Ca ssandra,” Gareth greeted me in a relieved tone, and then he looked at Marley. “And Marley. I’m so glad to see you.”
