Chapter 159
“You are not my enemy. I do not know how you have come to know of my kind, but I urge you to forget all you’ve seen and heard here today. Get on your bikes and get out of town. Leave those bikes behind as soon as possible, and in a public place. Switch vehicles at least three times and get as far as you can before stopping. The fumes of those bikes will be too easy to track. If there are any others. in the area with them,” I said, nodding to the Bulgati brothers, “they will easily track you down. You do not need to fear her people. They will know of your bravery and sacrifice, but they will also know that humans are aware.”
He looked uncomfortable at that thought. “It would be best for all if they did not know. We mean you no harm, and while we could not sit by and let harm come to her, we also broke every vow by interceding.”
“I understand. I too, broke plenty today. Perhaps it would be best if we both forgot the other was
ever here?”
Larry smirked and nodded. I sighed in relief.
“The girl, is she really Elise Westin?”
Panic flooded my face as my need to protect her flared in me again.
He shook his head and put his hand up in retreat. “Doesn’t matter. I can see she is important to you. Is she your mate?”
I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face as I looked down at the beautiful woman in my arms. “Aye, she
is.”
“We’re leaving now, unless you need us for anything else?”
I shook my head.
“Wait,” Larry yelled. “Here.” He handed me a fresh set of clothes. “You can use them more than me.”
“Thank you, my friend,” I said, taking his offering. “Larry?” I was hesitant to ask. “Can you hold her while I change?”
“Of course,” he said, stunned. “Dave is a doctor. Would you like him to take a look at her?”

I looked at Dave, then back at Elise and nodded slowly. Dave quickly approached and checked her vitals. My eyes never left them as I quickly dressed.
“She should be just fine–perhaps a headache similar to a hangover when she wakes, but otherwise, she should have no long–term effects.”
“Thank you,” I said in earnest.
Larry passed her into my arms. “We’ll call in an anonymous tip to the local police as we head out,
unless you want to wait for them here.”
“No, I want to get her as far away from here as quickly as possible, and the police will only slow that
task.”
“Understood, and we wish you the best of luck. I cannot tell you what an honor it has been meeting
you.” He then did something so shocking, that I just stood there speechless. Larry, followed by his two peers, each in turn dropped their heads in reverence and bared their necks to me before turning to hurry back to their bikes.
“I’ve always wanted to do that!” Martin exclaimed excitedly before they were out of earshot. I
couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity of it all.
Elise
My head was pounding once again as the world began to slowly right itself. I fought to remember what had happened and as it all came flooding back to me, I jumped up and frantically looked
around the room. Where was I?
The obvious motel room I was in stank of mildew and old cigarettes. I wasn’t in the little room in the
cabin that I had last awoken to. I was thankful my arms were no longer bound to the bed. Coffee was
brewing and a peek around the curtain showed me it was now dark outside. The unease of having lost an undetermined amount of time did not sit well.
Looking around the room, I had no belongings of my own, so I quickly made for the door, fumbling with the latch. I heard noise coming from the bathroom behind me and fear gripped me, making it impossible to undo the simple lock at the top of the door. Standing there frozen, I watched the door fly open. I screamed.
“Elise, it’s okay. You’re safe now.”
Large, thick arms wrapped around me, pulling me close to a hard, finely cut chest. I was shaking all over, but as I breathed in, my entire body relaxed. Salty tears masked my face and seeped into my

month.
“Patrick? Oh God, Patrick!” I cried hysterically, holding on to him for dear life. “What happened? Where are we? How did you find me?” My questions just kept coming as I shook in his arms. He held me tightly and let me fall apart until there were no more tears to cry,
“Shh. It’s okay, love. You’re safe now.” His voice soothed my wolf and I hugged him closer.
“I’m so sorry. I never should have left you like that. I thought it would be easier for you if I just left. I didn’t want to hurt you anymore. I hated seeing the pain in your eyes from my rejection. I didn’t know what else to do. Who were those men? They smelled familiar.” I thought hard, remembering their scent. “Bulgarians,” I said with certainty
