Chapter 172

I quickly knocked a dozen Crimson pack soldiers to the ground.
Their chests were torn apart by me, lying on the ground covered in blood and moaning in pain.
The enemy's blood dyed my snow-white hair red. Fortunately, I was not injured, and my puppy was good too.
I bared my teeth, every nerve in my body was so tense that start to sting. I stared at the eight soldiers surrounding me with vigilance.
They are the last eight, but also the eight most difficult to deal with.
"Della, you are running out of strenght," my wolf Trisha reminded me, sounded worried. She was right, I did feel exhausted.
When a werewolf is pregnant, she will share her physical energy with her puppy. If it were in the past, I would have no suspense against these soldiers. But now I can only try my best to win a chance to live for myself and my puppy.
"What are you waiting for? Attack her! You are all warriors selected strictly. You can't even deal with a she-wolf! Kill her quickly! You waste!" Arnold shouted.
I knew he's right. Every killer in Crimson pack has been carefully selected.
They have been put into a group of thirty people in a killer camp for training since they were little wolves. When they are close to adulthood, the Crimson pack will let them fight each other until there are only ten people left, and these ten people can truly become warriors.
My eyes were fixed on the eight muscular massive wolves in front of me. They were truly killing machines.
"Kylian!" I shouted through mindlink.
"For goodness sake, Kylian! You better come in the inspection house!"
"Kylian!"
I kept shouting, in hope of Kylian can arrive as soon as possible.
On the other hand, I was determined to completely eliminate these last eight people...for the sake of my puppy.
"I can't escape this…. I must fight and win or we'll die here…" I voiced out my realzation to Trisha.
"Then… Let them see the power of a Lycan," she replied, and more power suddenly radiated in me.
The time I stalled was enough and all my injuries was almost compltely healed. I moved as fast as I could, dodging their attacks, and scratching them every chances I got.
After I don't know how long, I was sure every enemy was killed down. I shifted back to my human form and put on my clothes exhausted.
Putting my hand on my abdomen, I could feel my puppy lying peacefully in the amniotic fluid. Tears accumulated in my eyes.
"He is not worthy of being your father..." I murmured.
If Kylian had not acquiesced to Gianna and those soldiers to block the border guards, my puppy and I would not have been in such danger.
I took a deep breath. "I shouldn't have any hope for him. The greater the hope, the more disappointment."
"Della...." I heard a familiar voice came from behind.
I turned around and saw Kylian standing at the door. He looked at me nervously with his white shirt mostly soaked with sweat. When he caught my eye, a smile appeared on his lips.
How ridiculous. I scoffed. Whenever I needed Kylian the most, he wasn't there for me. Now that things are settled, what is he doing here?
I opened my mouth, but before I could say anything, Kylian's face suddenly changed and he yelled: "Be careful!"
"What?"
I watched blankly as he rushed towards me and pulled me into his arms without warning.
Even though I reminded myself countless times to completely cut off ties with him, my heartbeat still accelerated when he held me in his arms.
He put his broad palm on the back of my head. "Della..."
Pressed against his chest, I could only see his Adam's apple rolled slightly.
"Della, I'm sorry I'm late..." he said so softly, almost a whisper.
Suddenly, a strong smell of blood filled my nostrils. It came from Kylian.
"Killian? Killian? What's wrong..."
I yelled, my eyes widened in horror. My eyes widened as my heart clenched with unimaginable worry. It seemed like the world had fallen on me.
"What the hell happened? Oh my Goddess!"
A realization hit me as I felt a cold sticky substance dirrping in my hand.
Blood…
"You're safe…" he said so gently before his weight fell on me.
"Kylian!" I shouted painfully, frozen on my place as I tightened my arms around him.
"No…"
Oh no! My goddess. How could this happen? Wasn't he fine just now? A few minutes ago he was standing in the doorway smiling at me!
My heart was filled with panic, and I held him with almost all my strength, as if he would leave me as long as I let go.
The bright red blood dripped down my fingers and hit the ground, gathering into a pool of blood.
"No......"
Tears welled up in my eyes, my voice trembled. I shook my head desperately, "You can't do this!"
"Catch him! He stabbed Alpha Kylian!"
Commontion filled the room as the series of footsteps from countless warriors rushed inside.
My chest pounded as I raised my head, meeting the eyes of the monstrous culprit who hurt Kylian.
"You!" I called out, trembling with unaimginable amount of fury.
With my arms around Kylian, I looked passed his back and found the timid man who caused all this chaos.
It turned out that Arnold had just hidden in the cabinet during the fight. He's so weak so I wondered why he became of that high ranking official.
Turned out, he was a cunning bastard!
He was supposed to stab me with silver knife but Kylian arrived in time to protect me. He used his body to resist the fatal blow for me!
Suddenly, tons of guards rushed in and pinned Arnold to the ground. He tried to resist, but he was no amtch to them.
Laughing like a crazy mad man, he said, "That knife is made of silver! He'll definetley die! You can pray all you want, but miracles don't happen easily!"
To say I was furious was an understatement. Trembling with anger, I pointed at Arnold with red eyes.
"Take him away! If anything happens to alpha, I will tear him into pieces with my own hands!" I yelled in desperation.
My voice was laced with dominance that surprised many of them, but the guards hastily followed my words.
I hugged Kylian tightly as I felt him lean on me more, making him heavier. "Doctor! Why hasn't the doctor came here yet?" I shouted in nervousness as I try to support Kylian.
Severe pain hit my heart, so painful that I could hardly breathe.
I no longer want to think about anything else, the only thing I know was that I can't lose Kylian.
I will die if I lose him...
One of the guards approached me and explain, "Luna, it will take some time before the doctor comes."
"What?"
I suddenly felt weak as I trembled and feel to the ground with Kylian still on me.
I could hear the phone ringing, but I just ignored it. How could I answer a phone right now?
Placing Kylian's head on my lap, I stared at him.
He was breathing heavily as he tried to raised his hand to hold mine. Seeing as he didn't had much strength, I reached his hand instead.
Tears welled up in my eyes as I saw him getting weaker every second.
With difficulty, he asked, "Do you believe now that I'm willing to sacrifice my life for you?"
Tears streamed down my face as I nodded. My heart was aching adn I didn't know how I could express the love and regret I feel toward him.
It seemed as though my heart was being clenched so hard that it wanted to suffocate me.
I should have beleived his words!
Don’t leave me! Please…
I never felt so scared before until I had him in my arms and on verge of death.
Kylian smiled with satisfaction and asked again in an almost whisper manner because of his weakness, "Can you… Can you not divorce me anymore?"
More tears streamed down my face when he cough up blood.
I position him to his side so the blood would fall from his mouth and he won't be aspirated.
Choke up with cry, I replied, "As long as you live, I'd never mention the divorce again. I just want you to live and be with me happily.
His smiled became brighter as if he wasn't losing so much blood.
"I'm so happy to hear that." His hold on my hand tightened. "Della… I can't hold on for much longer…"
I shook my head. "No… The doctor will be here don't say that…" I cried harder.
"If I die, I hope you find someone who loves you more than me. At least… find someone who won't hurt you like I did…"
"No!" I shouted in panic.
It felt like my heart was being tear apart as I hear him say his will. I couldn't imagine what my life would be without him. What would happen to me if he dies? I couldn't handle that.
After staring at me for a while and giving me a sweet smile, he closed his eyes and his hold on my hand loosened.
"No! Kylian!" I held him so tight, crying his name.
