Chapter 53 Escape Time

Letting go of the dead male's hair, I stand up before looking at my mate. Alex was weakly looking at me but even in his half closed eyes, it was clear. He was proud of me.

I quickly rush to his side and help him sit against a wall before inspecting his wounds. He wasn't healing and the wolfsbane had entered his system in a huge amount. "No no no... Stay with me, Alex... Please!", I cup his face as his eyes close.

Shooting to my feet, I run to the kitchen and fetch the entire box of antidotes. Preparing the syringes, I inject the rogue with two doses before cupping his face again, "Alex? Look at me! Please!!"

My mate barely opens his eyes before closing them again and letting out a pained groan. Tears stream down my cheeks and I quickly glance at the dead bodies. We can't stay here. "We have to run!", I tell him before lightly shaking his shoulders.
