Bad Love An Alpha’s Regret by Elise Sinclair Chapter 277

Chapter 277
No.
No-no-no-no-
This can’t be happening.
I can’t have found Aaron only to lose him for real this time.
I finally get him free of the chair and the chains, ignoring how Karolina is thrashing from the power of three Alphas inundating her body, and Ryker exclaiming in alarm about it.
I lay Aaron out flat, and then lean down to breathe into his mouth.
I fill his lungs with air from my own body, and then sit back to pump hard on his chest, counting through the compressions with staunch determination to bring him back.
As lean down to give him another few puffs of air, I realize I can somehow still sense him.
His presence-his soul-it isn’t quite gone.
I can feel him clinging on.
Clinging on to me my wolf and our bond
No!
I will save him.
I have to save him.
2/4
I keep up with the compressions, but then my wolf nudges me with the memory of how we’d broken the mating bond.
She’s desperately trying to tell me something important.
So it is done in blood, so it will be undone in blood.
I’m not sure exactly what my wolf is trying to tell me, so I give over control to her, just a little.
Next thing I know, I’ve stopped compressions and I’m leaning down to sink my teeth into Aaron’s neck, claiming him.
His body jerks, but he’s still not breathing.
However, I can sense something is happening.
Like somehow, it just got a little easier for his soul to hang on.
That he’s not just hanging on any longer.
He’s coming back.
through my wrist, making blood
well before I lean down and smear it across Aaron’s parted lips.
Again, his body convulses, but it’s not quite enough.
My wolf recedes and nudges me, so I get back to pumping on Aaron’s chest.
“Come on, Aaron,” I mutter desperately.
Aaron’s body jerks, and then suddenly he’s coughing, all the water coming up to spill out of his mouth as he splutters.
Relief storms through me so hard, it almost hurts.
I quickly roll him onto his side, letting the water clear until he’s gasping and blinking awake.
“Oh my go d!” I cry, unable to believe I actually managed to bring him back.
Aaron weakly reaches up and grabs my hand. “Leah, you
saved me.”
I pull him up into me, and his arms go around me like tight
bands.
He’s shaking, or maybe I’m shaking. Or probably we’re both shaking, panting and clinging onto each other like we’re the only salvation for each other in a world trying to drag us down
From the corner of my eye, I see how Ryker is holding
Karolina, looking pained, as if this is the worst thing that’s ever happened to him while she shakes with the power surging through her body.
Just as I fully turn my attention to him, he suddenly loosens his hold a little, and now he’s looking resigned and determined.
“I’m sorry, Karolina,” he says in a pained voice. “But I can’t let this come to pass. It would mean the final destruction of the Old Ways, and I refuse to stand by and let that happen.”
I’m confused, no idea what Ryker is talking about, what he’s apologizing for.
And then he reaches down and snaps Karolina’s neck.
