Bride of the Cursed Alpha (Auren and Lucien)

Chapter 244

Bradley POV

I slowly opened my eyes, the blurry light around me beginning to sharpen. Even the light was too harsh for me. The pain in my chest hit me immediately. My head was pounding, my body feeling heavy. It was like I was sinking into the bed beneath me. The air felt heavy, almost sterile. I realized I was in some kind of medical facility.

I instinctively reached for my chest, and the ache reminded me of what had happened. The memory of the bullet wound flashed in my mind. One of Morelli’s men had managed to shoot his gun at me. Rage consumed me and I wanted to go back and kill the bastard. Driven by my anger, I jerked up and immediately winced. The ache was still there. How much blood did I lose? I closed my eyes, and took a deep breath as Blaze growled in my head to fie down quietly and let him heal.

‘We will kill the bugger soon,‘ he growled.

‘We will,‘ I said and went back to sleep.

When I opened my eyes next, the dull humming of machines was persistent. I turned my head and saw Tarian sitting in a chair beside the bed. Even though his usual calm demeanor was laced with concern, there was a slight relief in his eyes when he saw me stir.

“You’re awake,” he said with a hint of a smile.

“Where am I?” I croaked, my throat dry and scratchy. Though the last thing I remembered was fighting Morelli’s men, getting shot, and the pain, everything after that was a blur.

“You’re in a secret facility,” Tarian replied. “In human town. We didn’t want to take the risk of you being seen in town’s hospital. This place is hidden, used for treating werewolves in emergencies.”
