The Alpha Who Cursed His Mate novel Chapter 30

Nina!

I race towards the car. There is no sign of Moss. I can smell his scent in the woods. Nina is unconscious. Blood trickles down the left side of her head. There is glass everywhere.

I howl as loud as I can for help. Finally, Astrid and Ryker appear, shift into their human forms, and climb into the car.

"Where has Moss gone? You didn't kill him, did you?" Astrid asks worriedly. I shake my head and whimper as I step towards Dad carrying Nina.

"She needs to see the pack doctor right away. Otherwise, she might not make it."

I lower myself down, knowing the quickest way to get her to the doctor is me taking her. Dad places her gently on my back and wraps her arms around my neck. I glide through the air like a bird with every leap, increasing my speed and making it a smoother run, so I don't drop her. My parents shift back into their wolves and can barely keep up with my pace. We arrive back at the ceremony. Everyone parted ways, screaming or startled at the sight of Nina.

"Nina!" Amelia screams.

Leon follows Amelia over to me. Nina's parents carefully lift Nina down, crying. The pack doctor assesses her.

"What happened to her?" Amelia asks me as my parents arrive and shift back.

"She was in a car accident. Moss was driving and fled the scene," Astrid tells her.

"Let's get her into the packhouse where I can tend to her wounds." The doctor says.

Leon carries Nina from the hall towards the packhouse.

"Thank you, everyone, for attending the ceremony, but it will have to end. So please enjoy the rest of your stay over the next few days." Ryker says to all the guests.

They all leave and head to their cabins. Some of the she-wolves continue to try and get my attention. They want to touch me. I let out a slight snarl just for them to hear and watch as they cower back, changing their minds. I catch up with Leon and follow him up the stairs. He places her on her bed, and the doctor immediately attends to her wounds, cleans them, and bandages her. Nina lets out a whimper, even though she is still unconscious. I growl at the doctor, who quickly backs himself up to the wall.

"S-Sorry Magnus, I didn't mean to hurt her, but I must cleanse her wounds. She doesn't have her wolf yet, so she needs my help to heal properly,"

Amelia sits by Nina and holds her hand. Leon stands next to Amelia with a solemn look.

My parents enter the room.

"Magnus, aren't you going to shift back into human form?"

I shake my head and curl up by Nina's side. I'm going to stay here and protect her until she wakes. My head rests on her lap. Mum, Dad, and Nina's parents give each other a sad look, then look back at me and nod in understanding.

"You let us know when she wakes, ok, Magnus?" Leon says. I lift my head and nod, then resume my position on her lap.
