Bad Love: An Alpha's Regret

Chapter 224

I don’t know what I’m going to do, or how I’m going to do it, I just know I need to get to Aaron and get

those chains off him.

I don’t care about the risk to me, or that I might be ki lled.

I just know if I can get Aaron free, he’ll heal quicker than any

other wolf has ever been able to because of all those Alpha

powers Tobin wanted for himself.

I’m just getting ready to shift, figuring I might be able to rip through at least a couple of Tobin’s goons

and get to Aaron

before they can stop me-or ki ll me-when there’s a commotion

at the doors.

I je rk myself away from the two wolves holding me, and they don’t seem to care, distracted as a whole © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

bu nch of new faces

arrive on scene.

These guys look like they just stepped out of a mafia movie-tattoos and gold jewelry and dressed slick,

but like bad-assed. Ryker strides confidently ahead of them, and I wonder if this is his pack, or just a

contingent of Old Country Wolves who do his bidding.

Whoever they are, there’s no denying they’re intimidating.

Apparently even to a wolf as feral as Tobin, because he becomes even more infuriated when he sees

Ryker, but the

stench of fear underneath his anger is unmistakable

I’m relieved to see James and most of Aaron’s men are also among the Old Country Wolves. They look

like they’ve been in a bad fight, but since I was worried they might have already been kil led, appearing

a little roughed up isn’t so bad.

James looks worried when his gaze lands on Aaron, but my mate’s Beta se nds me a confident nod, as

if he’s already sure I’ll be able to save Aaron.

“What are you doing here, Ryker?” Tobin demands, motioning his men nearer, getting them to close

ranks around him.

I start edging closer to where Aaron is lying on the floor while no one’s paying attention to me.

“I told you, Tobin,” Ryker says mildly, examining his fingernails like he’s bored and this is just a minor

inconvenience to him. “Alpha Aaron and Luna Leah are friends of mine. And that’s not even mentioning

how you tried to scr ew me out of a business deal we agreed on in good faith. I think I’m done with

you!’

“You can’t do anything to me!” Tobin shouts furiously. “The Council will-”

“I am above the Council,” Ryker growls, his eyes glowing. “And if ki lling you reminds them of that, then

all the better.”

Ryker flicks his hand and chaos erupts.

Wolves start attacking each other-some fully shifting, some only partially-while a few of the Old Country

Wolves pull out wicked looking silver knives and start stabbing Tobin’s wolves at startling speeds.

I dive for Aaron, relieved to find him still breathing and partly conscious.

Despite how it burns my hands, I grab the silver

wolfsbane-infused chains and yank, using my supernatural strength until some of the links give enough

that I can drag them all off him. My hands burn, the flesh sizzling and blistering.

As soon as he’s free, Aaron shifts.

I shift as well, standing over him as he heals, growling menacingly and baring my fangs at anyone who

comes too. close.

With so much power in his veins, Aaron heals in no time, and within moments, he’s on his feet, shaking

out his gray fur.

He growls, and it’s so low and powerful, I swear I feel the earth trembling beneath my paws.

Aaron’s head swings around and I know he’s looking for Tobin.

I am as well, but in the chaos of all the fighting, I can’t see him.

Suddenly a couple of Tobin’s wolves lunge at us, and my wolf viciously snaps back, surprising our

opponent with her ferocity.

In a matter of seconds, the enemy wolf is down and bleeding.

That’s when I realize that Aaron is gone.
