6 Chapter 6: An Alpha’s Wound

Elizabeth watched over the wolf, Firian, the entire night. Or the rest of it, at least. It had been two in the morning when they’d brought him in. She’d gone to bed before seven last night, so she’d had plenty of rest to see her through the rest of the night.

James had sent the other wolves out. The one that had brought the wolf in had to be ordered out, though. But the Alpha himself had stayed till the sun rose, helping her when he could. They hadn’t spoken. Elizabeth was aware that he was the Alpha, now, so she had to be more careful around him.

Besides, they had a wolf to care for. A dying one, by the look of it. Elizabeth had tried to care for him as best as she could, but before James left she had to tell him the truth of what she felt. He wouldn’t survive.

James had simply asked her to do her best and make Firian as comfortable as she could.
