My Bestfriend Slipped Inside Me (An Alpha’s Secret)

Xade’s pov

Avery,” I whispered brokenly. “Please,”

Her eyelids fluttered as she tries to fight the weight that threatened to consume her and tug her away from me harshly. “It burns,” she whisper shakily and lifts her trembling finger where my mark was placed.

“I know it does baby,” I rasped in pain, touching her burning face. The cold water was suppose to help! It was suppose to help!

The cold water is not working!’ I snarled in my head at Xaden. I knew he was not at fault and was equally as scared for Avery as I was but I couldn’t hold in my anger for being weak and helpless.

My bo paced with restless fury that our mark was causing this much anguish for her. It howled in pain, a feral cry of agony.

Get her out,’ Xaden voice intrudes into my head. ‘ Dad said to have her sleep it off,’ his voice is as helpless as mine.

‘Sleep it off?’ I snarled in disbelief.

Don’t be mad at me!’ he barked helplessly. This is what he instructed. I am also trying to help Xade. I also don’t want anything to happen to her.’

And I knew he was telling the truth. I closed my eyes, breathed in and nod even though he couldn’t see me. I gently cradle Avery against my chest and move out of the tub. Water soaked the mat under us, dripping onto the floor but I didn’t care as I move out of the bathroom.

She moans against my chest, her skin so hot compared to mine. I feel disgusted with myself for now being the one without pain while she was struggling.

The second I stepped into my room I noticed that Xade had cleaned up the bloody tissues off the floor and also had place clean sheets on the bed.

‘Remove everything off of her,’ Xaden pushed into my mind again. ‘And put on the AC. We need the heat to go down as much as possible.’

“Can you stand?” I asked her gently.

She moans and I take that as a no. I place her down on the bed gently and started peeling her wet clothes off of her, careful to not add on to the discomfort she must be feeling right now. Her skin was still hot, but at least it cooled down just a tad bit.

Or maybe I just wanted to have hope that it did.

I hate that she was the one in agony. It should have been me.

I lay her down gently and peeled off my clothes so I’d not wet the sheets. After undressing I slipped in beside her, pulling her body close to mine and throw the thin cover over our naked lower half.

She lets out a little sigh, curling closer to me. I kissed her head and reach for the AC remote that had been on the bedside table, just inches from my head. I set the air condition to the lowest temperature and cool air circulates around the roo instantly.

I prayed that the cool air could somehow give her a bit of relief from the tormenting fever and heat.

I held her close, my cheek resting on her damp hair as my heart clench with every shaky breath that fluttered out her lips. “I love you,” I whispered, kissing her head and sighing as I cling to her.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Her fingers twitch on my chest as if silently telling me she was listening to every word I say. I held her closer. “Remember when your date didn’t show up that day in senior year?”

Her fingers twitch again, letting me know she heard me.

I sighed and confessed. “I kind of locked him in his own car and threw the keys in the bush.”

“I can feel her small smile on my bare chest and my heart flutto it.”

knew,” she rasped low and tiredly. ” you had something to do with it.”

I grinned proudly and continued to tell her our past stories until I heard her breathing even out as she gets consumed by exhaustion.
