Luna On The Run - I Stole The Alphas Son

Alpha On The Hunt Chapter 20

“I said wait in the car!” he growls, grabbing me and spin- ning around. I growl, turning back when he grabs the back of my head, pulling me to him and blocking my view.

“Please go wait in the car,” Axton whispers, and I can feel his heart racing beneath my hands, smell his fear of whatever is going on emanating from his pores. His fingers tangle in my hair.

“What’s going on, Axton? Is Tieriny alright?” He makes a weird noise in his chest.

“Please El, you can’t unsee what’s in there. Just go back to the car. I’ll be there in five minutes.”

I push off his chest, trying to see around him, only for him to step in my path again. “Axton! What about Tieriny?” he doesn’t answer, but his jaw clenches.

“Go back to-” I shove past him, needing to know if my friend is ok, and shove open the doors and nearly throw up from the stench. It is amplified in here worse than in the foyer and I retch, gagging and clutching my knees when the foul smell steals my breath.

A second later, a hand covers my eyes and sparks rush across my neck where Axton’s lips press gently, his other arm wrapping around my waist as he pulls me back against him.

“That was a boy,” I murmur in shock. Who would do that to a child?

“Please, wait in the car,” Axton whispers.
