Chapter 5 My love , there has been an emergency in the army , and I must step in immediately … . William hesitated , looking into my eyes as though silently asking for permission . Yet , his body leaned anxiously toward the door , ready to bolt the moment I nodded . I said nothing . Instead , I sank back into the bed and closed my eyes . The next moment , William rushed out of the hospital room without even grabbing his jacket . Dragging my weak body to the window , I watched as he climbed impatiently into a car . Not long after , the vehicle began to shake violently . It was obvious how intense the encounter inside must have been . An hour later , the car finally stilled . William stepped out , adjusting his tie . Then , a woman leaned out of the car , tugged at his tie , and kissed him passionately before letting him go. Not long after , a message from Lucy appeared on my phone : Alpha was so wild today , tossing me around . He didnt wear protection and said he wanted me to have his pup the future heir to the park : Face it , he doesnt love you anymore ! Leave him already and move on . I didnt reply . Instead , I switched off my phone . Her words didnt provoke me . I was already prepared to leave . Chapter 6 Tomorrow was the key operation William had mentioned and also the day Id disappear . Yet , after I left , it was unclear whether William would make Lucy the next Luna or simply discard her . On the morning of the operation , William gently kissed my forehead . Baby , today is my last mission . Once this war is over , Ill spend the rest of my life with you . I watched his car speed away , then turned and climbed to the rooftop . Minutes later , a helicopter hovered above me . Its not too late to change your mind . Caitlin , are you sure about this ? Inside the cramped space of the helicopter , a tall man in sunglasses glanced at me . Even through the lenses , his handsome face radiated confidence . He leaned close as he fastened my seatbelt . Are you really leaving your Alpha ? I closed my eyes and replied calmly , Mind your own business . He chuckled but quickly turned serious . This mission is risky . A healer like you should never be here , but we both know youre the best person for the job . Once its done , youll be free . I nodded and prepared my parachute . Lena , my wolf , and I infiltrated the enemy base smoothly . But as I entered the command room , dread washed over me . Something was wrong . The place , marked as safe in the reports , reeked of danger . Before I could retreat , a sharp sting pierced my neck . Chapter 5 As my vision blurred , I heard someone exclaim , Finally ! The legendary healer walked right into our trap . Alert the chief . Weve captured her ! Meanwhile , William stood in the army camp , unease gnawing at him . The intel seems too precise , he murmured . How did they know this much when our previous spies all failed ? A calm , firm voice interrupted . It was the healer . She risked her life to send us a signal . William turned to see Blair , Alpha of the Bloodwalker Pack . Because their territories bordered each other , Blairs pack had allied with Williams against the vampires roaming the borders . Blair continued , Todays mission is to destroy the enemy base and rescue the healer . Im personally requesting it . William smirked . You seem quite attached to this healer . Blair replied without hesitation . She means a lot to me . Surely Alpha William has someone . just as precious ? Williams expression softened . Yes , my Luna is my greatest treasure . Lucy scoffed . That healer is greedy . Shes just trying to steal credit by showing up now . Before Blair could retort , William snapped , Shut up ! Without her , none of us would be alive . Even I wouldve died countless times . Tears welled in Lucys eyes, but she fell silent . THE The warriors advanced swiftly through the night . At the vampire base , William found the vampire leader barely alive , slumped beside a bound woman . Her long hair obscured her face , but something about her seemed achingly familiar . Chapter 5 Before William could think about it in detail , Lucy whimpered and covered her chest , having just been grazed by a stray bullet during the breakout . Im hurt , Alpha . Help me first ! Meanwhile , bound and bleeding . I struggled against my restraints . When I saw William cradling Lucy and whispering soothing words , pain stabbed through my heart . Worse than the heartache was the searing pain in my abdomen as blood trickled down my legs . Lucy cried louder . Alpha , Im scared ! Blow up the place and leave that healer behind . Ill die if you delay ! Someone protested , No ! We need the rogue leader alive and the healer too ! But Lucys screams drowned out their voices . William hesitated , then gave the fatal order . Lucy cant wait . Set the bombs and blame the explosion on the rogue leader . Move quickly ! Picking Lucy up , William turned his back on me . As the bombs fell , the vampire leader laughed hysterically .. Alpha William , youll know the pain of losing your true love ! There was a pause in Williams departing footsteps , and he glanced back hesitantly . The bomb exploded in the air , illuminating the bound woman . For a fleeting moment , our eyes met . 1 looked at William and gave a rueful smile .
