Alphas' Proud Mate novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69

Give her to me, I say, my voice barely human as I move.

Fury gently transfers her into my arms, and I hold her like the’s made of glass. She’s so small, so light–like if I squeeze too hard, she’ll disappear

“What about him, Alpha?” Fury growls behind me.

I don’t even glance at the bastard on the floor.

“Drag him along too,” thiss through clenched teeth. “But don’t be gentle.”

Fury nods once, and I hear the satisfying thud of Khaos being grabbed.

I don’t waste another second, thead straight for the hidden corridor narrow, overgrown with wines, known only to those of Alpha blood. It leads directly to the private pack clinic, tucked deep into the forest like a secret we try to forget. No gossip. No eyes. No fucking questions.

Imindlink the doctor as I move, “Get to the private clinic. Now. Discreetly.”

He doesn’t ask why. He just replies, “Already there.”

By the time I burst through the doors, the doctor’s standing ready.

to the bed.

“Put her down,” he says quickly, moving to guide me to

I hesitate–just for a breath–before I set her down as gently as possible. Jasmine’s skin is ghostly pale, her breathing shallow. Her body–still wrapped in Fury’s jacket–is trembling, even unconscious,

I can’t do this. I can’t look at her like this.

I storm out the door, and the second I’m in the hall, I slam my fist into the wall.

CRACK

Pain flares through my hand. I don’t stop. I do it again.

And again.

Until the drywall is smeared with blood and my knuckles split wide open. I deserve every blow, every drop of pain, every scream I failed to hear–every warning I ignored.

I should’ve known.

I rest my

The door creaks open behind me. The doctor steps into the hallway, wiping his hands with a bloodied towel. His face is pale and grim.

“Alpha,” he says carefully. “Physically, she’ll recover. Her wolf is already healing the bruises and cuts. But…”

I lift my head slowly. “But what?”

He exhales, “It’s the mark. That’s what’s draining her–emotionally, mentally. She was… forcefully marked, That kind of violation–it’s not something a wolf just walks away from.”

I feel the blood drain from my face.

I’m still trying to process those words when Fury walks into the hallway, dragging Khaos by the arm like a broken rag doll. The bastard’s messia Jaw swollen, one eye purple and sealed shit. And yet, somehow he’s fucking smiling

I march up be him, grab his collar, and slam him against the wall hard enough to shake the clinic.

“You forcefully marked her?” I snarl, my voice so low it vibrates through my chest.

He laughs, wheezing. “You should’ve heard her scream, Alpha….. Begging me not to crying that she was rejecting me.” He grins, teeth bloodstained. “i had to punish her. Had to show her who she belongs to.”

I throw him to the ground, every bone in my body screaming for vengeance.

“And you know the best part?” he groans, coughing, “I never accept her rejection. She’ll always be mine. She’ll carry my mark forever, and there’s nothing you can do about it, Jack”

Irake a hand down my face, fingers trembling.

This bastard planned everything. He knew the bond would keep him alive. He knew I wouldn’t kill him if it meant hurting her. He’s hiding behind that bond like a coward. And Jasmine… she’s the one paying for it.

The doctor speaks again, hesitant. “Alpha… if I start treatment on him, it may ease her condition. It’ll help her recover faster.”

My teeth clench so hard I taste blood

I should let him rot in a cell.

But Jasmine needs him alive.

“Do it,” bark, “Start the damn treatment

The doctor nods and moves toward Khaos, who laughs again, like he’s won.

“Fury,” I grit out

“Alpha?”

“Get five of our strongest warriors. I want them guarding him around the clock. No one lets him out of their sight. Lock him in a secured room, breathes too hard, I want to know.”

“Yes, Alpha,”

I turn and head back into Jasmine’s room. Her breathing is steadier now, her frame curled under warm blankets. But she still looks fragile.

I sink down beside her bed.

My hand finds hers, trembling and cold.

She used to be the one who always smiled. Climbing trees, making up wild stories, dragging me to the treehouse even when I was too exhausted from training to move,

But I left her behind when I took the Alpha title. And now… this is what she’s become, What he turned her into

My thoughts drift to Kali–and her faint scent that clung to Khaos‘ house. I hadn’t paid much attention to it at first, not with Jasmine lying broken, but

Kital was there.

She must’ve come back home to unexpectedly find Jasmine and see what that monster did. Maybe she confronted him. Maybe she didn’t wait for me because she couldn’t. Because she cared enough to act..

And now I can’t even beat the truth out of khaos–not without putting Jasmine through more hell.

Fury steps closer. “Alpha… what if we perform Drennoth–Sytha?”

My body jerks as I turn to face him. “Are you insane?” I hiss, grabbing his arm and dragging him to the corner of the room like Jasmine might hear. “That’s black magic, Fury. That spell rips out her wolf You’re asking me to destroy her.”

“It’s a suggestion, Alpha.” Fury’s jaw is tight. “It kills me too, knowing that bastard gets to keep breathing while she’s stuck suffering. But what other way

Fury shakes his head slowly. “You know that won’t work. You know what the mate bond does. What the mark does. She’ll want him. Her body will need him. She won’t be able to fight it.”

Her voice is soft, raspy but it cuts through the air like a dagger.

“Jas?” I rush to her, kneeling, grabbing her hand again. “Are you are you in pain? I can call the doctor

“No.” I shake my head. “You don’t know what you’re asking Jas, if you go through with this–your wolf–she’ll be gone. Forever,”
