Destined To Be Greatness novel Chapter 30

"Who's there?" I asked. I waited but I got no reply. I heaved a sigh and relaxed back up against the wall. My imagination must be playing tricks on me already.

"Jay," a voice whispered. I looked around me again, now that my eyes had adjusted to the dark I could see that my cell was quite large and in one corner there was a metal bed, like the ones you usually find in a prison.

We might as well be in a prison, my wolf chuckled groggily. I chuckled with her.

"Jay," that same voice whispered again. I listened closely this time and determined that my mind wasn't playing tricks on me and that there was someone else in here with me. Who? I have no idea, I recognize the voice. I just can't seem to place it.

"Jay," the voice said again but this time it had more power behind it. "Jay!"

"Who's there?" I said again.

"It's me Cameron."

I was shocked, "What are you doing here?!"

"I got taken with you. The kids came out of the forest and told us what happened, I shoot off after you. I caught your sent and followed you to that clearing where I found..." He trailed off. "I found... I found you lying on the floor with rouges all over you." His voice sounded so sad and wobbly. "I thought you were dead. I managed to get the rouges off you and kill them but then I got shoot and now we're here." Cameron's voice was still shaky.

I was astounded by what he'd done for me; he risked his life and also risked his pack of not having an alpha because of me. In that moment I felt like the Grinch where my heart grew three sizes. Never in my life has someone risked everything for me, not even my own pack but then I was the one that was to protect them.

"I'm sorry for getting you into this Cameron," I whispered ducking my head.

"You don't need to be sorry, I would do it all over again just for you Jay. No matter how much you push me away I will always be there to protect you. I love you Jay."

My head shot up, my eyes opened wise with my jaw on the floor. Did he really just say that?!

My wolf was prancing and yipping around, he loves us! She chanted over and over again.

"Where are you?" I asked. "Are you in the same cell as me?"

"Hello? Can anybody hear me?" I shouted through the mind link.

"Jay?" The voice was faint I could barely make out what they were saying or who it was.

"Yes it's me! Me and Cameron have been captured!" I smiled with relief at Cameron.

"Don't worry hel-" they suddenly cut off.

"Hello? Hello?!" I shouted. Nothing, I heard nothing. They were gone. My smile quickly vanished and was replaced with a frown. Cameron must have noticed the change in my mood as I was pulled back into his tight embrace.

"Someone was there but then they were gone," I whispered.

"It's okay; everything is going to be okay." He took my face in his hands. "At least we know that when the drugs wear off more we can contact our packs. For now at least we have each other."
