Fane dropped the lifeless form and threw his head back and howled Jacque flinched as the other five wolves and even Decebel in his human form howled in victory with him As the howls died down Jacque added her ol, but hers was out of pain as once again she doubled over Only this time the pain was too much She held her breath and felt tears seep from her eyes just before she passed out

Chapter 33

Fane was back in his human form as soon as he heard Jacquelyn’s pain-filled scream He rushed to her side just as she lost consciousness Taking in the bruises on her face and the teeth marks on her neck, he nearly lost his barely contained control He reached for her body, pulling her up into his arms, and stood He turned to look at his father as still in his wolf forht noe need her We need to kno to fix ave a small snort and Fane took that to mean that his father would not take any action towards the doctor…yet

As Fane, Decebel, and the five wolves approached the vehicle his gaze locked with Lilly’s She rushed forward as tears ran down her cheeks, sinking to the ground as Fane lowered Jacquelyn’s body He helped Lilly lay Jacquelyn’s head in her lap and then quickly took a pair of sweatpants hisout for each of the wolves to put on

"Okay, girls They are all decent," Alina announced

Jen and Sally came around from the other side of the vehicle and rushed to Jacquelyn’s side Both girls were crying as they looked their friend over,sure she was really alive and really here It took everything in Fane to keep fro her close to him so he could assure himself and his wolf that she was safe

Fane turned to his father as Vasile approached "We need Dr Steele awake"

"I will force her to phase once we are back at the hotel Then she can tell us e need to do to make Jacque well"

Fane watched as one of the wolves that had phased back and was noearing a pair of sweats approached Lilly Fane couldn’t help the lol that came frorowl "She’s hter, too"

"I understand that Do not touch her while you check on her I know that you want to make sure she is okay, but no male is to touch her" Fane’s voice was lethal as he issued the order

Dillon nodded in acknowledgment of Fane’s request as he knelt down next to Lilly

Vasile gave everyone a fewback to the hotel

"Dillon," Vasile said, turning to face the other Alpha "You may come back to the hotel but I would ask that your other wolves stay away Fane will not be coht now As it is, he is on the verge of losing it"

Dillon agreed to this and told him that he would meet them at the hotel after he dropped his wolves off

Fane went over to Lilly and knelt down "Can I take her, Lilly?"

Lilly watched as Fane shook with the need to be close to his ently lifted Jacque’s head so Fane could slip his arm underneath it, and his other arm came under her knees as he stood up with her He carried her to the SUV, not waiting for anyone else, and climbed in with her in his lap He looked down at her face, brushing hair away from her once-pale cheek now marred with a bruise, and reached for her mind

" Meu iniers across her cheek as he waited for her response
