Chapter0222
I cannot believe that Alessia fucking stepped in front of me. As if she was going to take on those five vampires by herself while I stood around with my thumb up my ass.I’m so pissed I could punch something, but right now, I have to deal with the fact that the vampires have found her. If the vampire prince is a decent leader, he’ll know exactly where he sent his scouts and when they are supposed to return. We can only hope that this was an early stop and they aren’t expected back for a while.
Rik and I set up additional patrols to cover the canyon between us and assign some warriors to burn the vampires. Now that I’ve smelled them, I know Dustin was right. That’s not a smell you forget. It’s so sweet it almost burns your nose. I’m thankful that Angel stayed in her wolf form. I’m not sure I could have restrained myself if she were naked in front of all these males. I’m already angry, and I need to harness my anger before we get back to the packhouse and I have a chance to speak to her. I also need to make sure that she doesn’t need any medical care. Alessia still isn’t up to full strength and I’m not sure how much damage that vampire did to her. When I checked her over briefly, she didn’t seem to have serious injuries, but I also saw that asshole leech beating on her.
When we’re done, I look at Alessia and jerk my head toward home. She takes the hint and heads out, I shift and Cyran is right on her tail. Her pace is considerably slower on the way home. She’s overdone it and worn herself out. Fuck!
Cyran keep
pace with her, making sure she doesn’t fall on her way back up the cliff face. It’s slow going but when we get to the top, I find a tree where the pack has clothes stashed and I shift back. I throw on a pair of shorts and turn to Alessia.
“Shift.” I use every bit of Alpha tone that I have. I know it doesn’t work on her, but I’m hoping she’ll realize that I’m not playing. She shifts and looks at me cautiously.
I toss her a shirt and wait until she pulls it on. Once she has, I throw her over my shoulder and begin stalking back to the packhouse.
“Liam! What are you doing, put me down.”
I smack her ass, hard. “Hold still and be quiet.”
The walk to the packhouse is faster with me carrying her. I know she needs to eat, but we need to talk first. Pack members start to approach me, but when they see me carrying Angel over my shoulder, or maybe it’s the deadly look on my face, they scurry out of my way.

I head straight to my room before putting her down and rounding on her. “What the fuck was that?”
I can see her total confusion. She has no idea why I’m so upset. I start pacing, trying to burn off some of this anger. And underneath the anger is the real problem. Fear. Fear that I could have lost her today.
I turn back to her. “Don’t ever fucking put yourself between me and danger again. Got it?”
“They were going to kill you Liam.” She says quietly.
“First! I’m a fucking Alpha! I’ve been taking care of myself since I was six years old.” I’m yelling, waving my arms around like a crazy person. “Second! You don’t give your life for me. Do you understand me? Not today, not ever. Are we clear?”
I get in her face, towering over her. I’m breathing so heavy I feel like a fucking dragon breathing fire. In the back of my mind, I’m proud of my little angel. She doesn’t back down from my fury.
“I’m a Guardian Liam. It’s my job. It’s what I do.”
