“So, what are we going to do? Do you have people coming to save us?”
She asked; I knew if she was wondering if her mate was coming.
I honestly hadn’t thought about Brody at all. My only concern was surviving and getting back to my mate.
“I don’t know,”
I admitted. “But I do know how to get outside. Once we are outside, we need to get out of here as fast as we can. Once we are outside, our mates will be able to sense us, and they will come for us.”
She looked nervous; maybe even uncertain. But then she gave me a head nod.
“I’m with you,”
she said softly, much to my relief. She glanced down at her IVs with a frown. “Help me get these out.”
I slowly and carefully removed the IV needles from her wrist and disconnected her from the heart monitor. Before it could beep loudly, indicating a heart issue, I turned off the monitor, silencing it.
Sara slid out of bed, and though she seemed a bit unstable on her feet, she eventually got her footing and was able to walk normally.
“It’s been a while since I stood,”
she admitted.
I smiled at her and pulled out a syringe and a scalpel, handing them to her.
“Weapons just in case we run into issues,”
I explained.
Her eyes widened as she took the syringe and scalpel, examining them carefully.
“What does the syringe do?”
“I’m not sure,”
I admitted with a shrug. “But I found it here so it can’t be good.”
“Fair enough,”
she murmured.
“Hey! What’s going on!?”
I heard someone yelling from a short distance.
I whipped around and saw two rogue wolves running toward us, they were getting their syringe guns ready as they ran, and they looked furious.
“Alert Jazzy!”
The other yelled into the shadows behind them.
I knew other rogues must have been nearby.
“Shit,”
Sarah gasped.“I need you to trust me,”
I said to her firmly and way more confidently than I felt.
She shot me a look, but she didn’t argue with me.
I got in my stance as the doors of the infirmary opened and the rogues ran into the room, pointing their syringe guns at us.
Sarah stood behind me and I knew she was terrified of what was about to happen.
Just as the syringes were shot, I yelled, “Get down!”
Sarah immediately fell to the ground, just as I jumped and the syringe needle went flying through the air, missing us completely.
While I was in the air, the other needle from the other gun went flying and I managed to kick it out of route, and it bounced off the far side of the wall.
The glass of the syringe shattered to pieces.
By the time I landed, the rogues were attempting to reload their guns, but I kicked them out of their hands and punched one of them square in the face, he staggered backward, about to fall, but managed to get his footing.I grabbed the other one and knocked his head against the other rogue’s head before kicking their feet out from under them both, making them fall to the ground.
With one last kick, they were both knocked out completely.
Sarah was still huddled on the ground with wide eyes, staring up at me.
It wouldn’t be long before more rogues appeared along with Jazzy and her friend.
I motioned with my head for Sarah to follow me.
“Let’s go.”
Lila’s POV
Loud sirens rang throughout the building, nearly rattling my brain, but I knew I had to remain focused if I wanted to get us out alive.
Red emergency lights began to swirl around as well. I knew the door to leave this place was near the elevator, but it was surrounded by rogues entering the building.
We were going to need to find another way out of here.
“There’s a stairway leading upstairs,”
Sarah said, breathlessly trying to keep up with me.
I could have sworn there were only two stories to his building. But Sarah was certain there was another floor.
“Is there a way out from upstairs?”
I asked her, furrowing my brows together.
“I don’t know but it seems like this whole floor is surrounded,”
she said. “I know Jazzy’s office is upstairs so she might be there too. We have to be careful.”
The elevator was just around the corner, I might be able to fight the rogues in front of the elevator long enough to hold them back while we go on.
“Get the elevator ready, I’m going to fight them,”
I said, taking out the scalpel from my pocket.
Sarah nodded in agreement.
As we rounded the corner and ran toward the elevator, more rogues appeared. I was able to fight one away from me, kicking and punching until he was no longer moving. The other went after Sarah who was also fighting.
However, she was weak, and he had the upper hand. I ran toward her, dodging another rogue who lunged at me. I grabbed the back of the rogue’s head and slashed his throat, allowing him to bleed out in front of us as I dropped him to the ground.
“Elevator!”
I ordered her as I ran to fight more rogues.
I could see the elevator in view, and I knew if I kept these rouges preoccupied, Sarah could get the doors open.
She ran quickly toward the elevator as I continued to fight. Then, much to my dismay, I heard her cursing loudly.
“They cut the power!”
Shit.
I managed to kill most of the rogues that were surrounding me. After I fought and won against the last one, I turned and ran to join Sarah at the elevator.
She was right; the power was off.
“There has to be a stairwell somewhere in here,”
I told her, looking around for a stair sign.
It was Sarah who had found it first.
We ran toward the door that led to the stairs and burst through it, only to be met with more rogues.
As I fought, with minimal help from Sarah, I heard her scream from a short distance.
“Lila!”
Sarah yelled and I turned to see more rogues coming out of the shadows and lunging at us.
