2#Stolen by the Alpha Wolf: Shifter Romance (Deliberate Theft) (9 page)

“Pack
a bag. We’re leaving.” His eyes narrowed on her.

“You
still want me?” She couldn’t believe that he was here. That this was happening.

His
eyes dropped to her stomach. The meaning clear. He didn’t want her, he was here
for the baby.

“Do
I still get to come back if I need to?” Although he believed there was a way to
save the baby, she knew it was impossible.

“I’m
not leaving without you.” He crossed his arms across his chest, wincing as the
wound pulled.

“You
will be put to death.” Her heart rate picked up. “Please, Ward. Just leave,
save yourself. Do it now.” She had to work to stop from shouting at him.

“You
had better pack a bag then.”  His jaw locked and his Adam’s apple bobbed as he
swallowed hard. “And in answer to your question, know that if you come with me
there will be no coming back.”

“You
know I can’t go with you then. You know why.” She moved over to him, grabbing
his biceps. “Please, Ward, just go.”

He
flinched as she touched him so she took back her hands. “I know it will be
difficult to leave your mate.” Ward said through clenched teeth.

Stephany
was desperate. She needed to get him to leave. The sooner the better. If he was
found here, with Tanya, he was dead for sure. “You’re right. I can’t possibly
leave Lance. Just go okay? Please.”

“Stop
talking shit. Lance means nothing to you and if this oaf of a wolf hasn’t realized
that, then he needs his head examined.” Tanya whispered.
Loudly.
“Pack a
damned bag or I’ll pack it for you.”

“I
can’t have this baby, Tanya.”

“You
said you trusted him. Pack the bag.” Tanya gestured to the closet.

“Listen
to your friend,” Ward growled softly. “You are coming with me.”

Taking
the same bag that she’d left the wolves with, Stephany grabbed whatever items
of clothing that would still fit her. She pulled on sweatpants under her gown.
Next, a pair of socks and sneakers. Lastly she put on a thick jacket. It was
really cold in the mountains. As a final thought, she grabbed two sweaters,
shoving them into the bag. It took some effort to zip it closed.

“You
stay here. I’ll lock you in the bathroom,” Ward said to Tanya. “Thank you for
your assistance.”

“Don’t
worry about locking me in. Zane and Brant will know I helped, so no use trying
to hide it.” She took in a deep breath. “Look after my friend, Ward, or I will
be forced to come after you myself. I may look small and weak, but I would find
a way to hurt you.”

“Of
that, I have no doubt.” Ward sort of smiled. “Thank you, human.”

Tanya
turned towards Stephany and they hugged. “I hope you’re not in too much
trouble.” Stephany said into her hair.

“Nothing
I can’t handle.” Tanya replied just as they released each other.

“I
mean it, wolf…take care of her.” Tanya looked in Ward’s direction.

The
very big, very naked wolf nodded once. His green eyes were hard, his frame
tense. “Stay close and keep quiet.” He barely glanced Stephany’s way, clenching
his jaw.

“Don’t
do this, Ward.” Stephany had to try one last time.

“Go
with the wolf,” Tanya whispered. “You and I both know that you can’t go through
with the procedure tomorrow. That if you do, it will destroy you.”

Stephany
took a deep breath and followed Ward, who had slung her pack across his
shoulders. He grabbed her arm at the wrist. His calloused grip hard and somehow
impersonal. One thing was for sure, he had pulled back from her. Didn’t look at
her the same. Not that she could blame him. Maybe once she explained. By the gods,
she could only hope it would all work out in the end.

“Here
take this.” Tanya held out her cell phone.

Ward
shook his head. “She won’t be needing that.”

“Just
take it, you never know when you are within signal and need a helping hand or a
friendly ear.” Tanya put the device in her hand.

Stephany
nodded, closing her fingers. He released his hold long enough for her to stuff
the phone in her pocket.

“Take
care.” Tanya whispered as they closed the door behind them.

They
had one incident at the perimeter fence. Ward punched the guard rendering him unconscious.
Once they cleared the eight foot fence, Ward fell to one knee, panting hard.
His wound was leaking blood at the edge. “You are in no shape to make this
escape. To take me with you.”

He
turned his eyes on her. “I told you that I wasn’t leaving without you and I
meant it. I have to shift. I’ll be stronger in wolf form. Will heal quicker.”

“Don’t
do this, please.”

“You
carry my child. Mine,” he growled. “You will come back with me and you will
birth him. It is the last I will hear of it.”

“I
can’t.” She sobbed, unable to hold back the tears.

Instead
of responding, Ward narrowed his eyes. It was clear that he didn’t care.
Whatever he may have felt for her before had been cut out of him when that
blade had tore into his chest. He stood to his full height, his body snapping
and changing as he effortlessly became the big, black wolf that she remembered.

The
beast crouched down, allowing her to climb onto his back. Stephany clasped his
soft fur.

 “I
can’t birth this child, Ward. It is impossible. He will suffer while he tries
to be born. Our child will die a terrible death while still in my womb. You are
signing our death warrants. I hope you are okay with that?”

Ward
stiffened beneath her. His fur bristled beneath her fingers. He made a low,
deep growl. His whole body vibrated beneath her. Giving his head a shake, he
leapt forward, making for Sweetwater River, the castle at their back.

Stephany is in a
whole lot of trouble. Although I had an idea of how I would get her out of this
terrifying situation, I still had a really tough time doing it in the end.
