'Pack'ed Together

Chapter Twelve ~ Big Tough Alpha

EDITED --- KIND OF

~Emi's POV~

I opened my eyes and blinked. I glanced around the room nervously. I didn't recognize the atrocious wall paper or the tacky flowers. I glanced down at my body and almost threw up. I lokked like I had just woken up in a modern day Frankenstein story. Bruises and cuts covered my body and needles were stiking out of the most hoorrendous places. I was close to being hysterical when Nate and Jake burst in looking relieved.

"Emi thank goodness you're ok" Jake said with tears running down his face

Nate was pale under his tanned skin; "if something had happened to you-I don't know what I would've done" he said his voice shaking

"Jake, Nate I'm fine" I said in a croaky unconvincing voice. "But I don't know what happened"

They glanced at each other nervously "you were drugged; five times the lethal limit for humans which is why your body is bruised. It had a weird reaction to the wolf healing." Nate said slowly

I was shocked. "You're going to be fine bud. All the guys are waiting outside to see you" Jake placed a comforting hand on my wrist

"I'll meet you guys outside. I'm going to change then we can go home" I said tiredly. My body suddenly felt like it ached all over.

They both looked at each other again and left. I sat up and slowly slid the needles out of my arm. My skin started to throb and I slowly pulled on my outfit from last night. I hobbled out to the others. I blushed as I realised how much of an old lady I felt and probably looked like. I felt arms wrap around my neck and waist. I looked down and saw Hemi and Lucas squeezing the life out of me. Both had bruises under there eyes from staying up all night for me. I squeezed them back in a bone crushing hug

"Where's Ronan?" I asked realising that he wasn't here. This hurt me but I couldn't figure out why.

"Oh he's just cooling off at home" Lucas said. He was a terrible liar and it was obvious he was hiding something.

I let it go and hopped in the car. I fell asleep straight away with my head resting on Nate's shoulder. I felt the car stop in what felt like seconds and everyone hop out. Nate picked me up like a child and took me inside. I kept my eyes closed trying to go back to sleep against Nate's chest.

I heard someone hiss and pried my eyes open. Ronan was standing in the doorway looking at my injuries with rage burning in his eyes. I sighed and made Nate put me down. "I'm fine Ronan I can barely feel it" I said trying to calm him down. He looked me over once more and nodded. I hobbled inside and felt everyone behind me. Fluttering around me trying to take care of my every need (including Lara and Kara). 

"You look cold do you need a blanket? I'll get you a blanket. but not too thick cause then you'll over heat" Nate was dancing from each foot

"I'll take your mind off the pain Emi. Um I'll put on one of those sappy chick flicks. DAMMIT we don't have any." Hemi was tearing at his hair. Freaking out about not having the movies

"Hemi we'll go to the store and get some. F*ck we have no money on us! That's it we'll just have to rob the place. We'll get everything so you have some choices" Lara had that scary violent twinkle to her eye. It took all my self control not to roll my eyes at them

I really wanted to sleep and not have them stare so I started up the stairs. I lifted my leg for the first step and gasped in surprise. My whole lower half had stiffened with the movement and I felt a stabbing pain in my spine. I started to fall back slowly when I felt arms swiftly pick me up bridal style. I hated being picked up but it seemed to happen a lot these days.
