My blood had poisoned him.

A United Plan

Alejandro

Ihated seeing the fear on her face as she put distance between us, running to the door.

“Liam!”she shouted, pulling the door open before turning and rushing to my side. She hesitated, falling to her knees a few feet from me. “Alejandro, baby, are you okay?” She asked, reaching out, then hesitating as Liam and Raven entered.

“I’ll get help,” Raven murmured, running off.

“Alejandro.” Liam was by my side, and although my entire body was fucking burning up and felt like it was being fucking torn apart from inside, I was in my fucking senses.

“Take care of her,” I growled, staggering to my feet. “I’m fine, Amore Mio, calm down.” I wanted to pull her into my fucking arms, but she was fucking scared of being near me and I did not want to make her even more panicked.

“I’m going to get some antidote.” I heard Liam say as he lifted Kiara to her feet, taking her out of the room with him. I could feel my body fighting it, and the urge to shift took over. A menacing growl that I knew filled every corner of the mansion ripped from my throat as I transformed.

“Al!” Darien’s voice came.

I turned as he waved two bottles of antidotes. Something told me those fuckers wouldn’t work, but I still grabbed them in my huge, clawed hand and downed them.

Nothing.

I still fucking felt like shit.

I’m fine,I growled through the link, sitting on the bed in Lycan form.

“Uncle!”

Tell her not to try healing me. This could be the exact same shit as what happened with Delsanra and Dante,I commanded through the haze.

“Raihana, you can’t heal him,” I heard Darien say as my vision darkened.

She was arguing, but someone took her away. The last thing I saw was Elijah and Scarlett enter, and then everything went black.

I opened myeyes groggily. My body was fucking killing me, but it wasn’t as bad as it had been earlier. The sun was still out, which meant I hadn’t been out for long. I sat up, squinting, and I was about to get out of bed when Scarlett placed her hand on my shoulder.

“I do not want to see you naked ever again. Stay in bed,” she almost growled. Seriously?

“Is Elijah’s prick that fucking small that seeing my big dick scared you?” I shot back. I heard someone let out a sharp, irritable exhale and turned to see Darien and Elijah there.

“He’s perfectly fine if he can run his mouth,” Elijah glared. I smirked. He didn’t deny that I was bigger than him.

“How long was I out?” I asked, resting back against the cushions and pulling the duvet over my waist. I wasn’t planning on shifting; my pants and fitted boxers were indeed gone.

“Just over an hour. How are you feeling?” Darien asked.

“I won’t lie and say that I’m not in any pain, but it is better than before. Did you guys give me something or some shit?”

“Something? Try several things… a few enchantments, which didn’t include direct magic from Raihana, so don’t get angry, every antidote in existence. We even tried Scarlett’s blood,” Darien replied, frowning at me. I could tell from his pale skin colour that he was shaken.

“What worked?”

“I don’t think anything worked. I think your body just fought it,” Scarlett answered.

“Where is she?” I asked. I needed to see her.

Silence.
