Sadistic Mates Chapter 57

Evelyn s POV

The next week went by quickly, I was starting to feel more like myself. The herbs Amara gave helped but so did drinking both Orion s and Ryland s blood. Though Ryland s I craved, and I sotis needed help to stop. Ryland didn t seem to mind but I could tell everyone was worried about what would happen when the baby was to arrive. Honestly, I was petrified of dying too, yet more petrified of coming back, coming back as a Lycan. They have explained nurous tis what would happen if I did and each ti it scared more, to the point I have now stopped asking.

Amara seems to think I don t have long left, so today Thaddeus and Orion were heading into the city to get so things. Ryland made the baby a crib by hand took him three days before he would even allow in the shed to see it. Imogen brought over so of Amara s and Thaddeus s old baby stuff that she hung onto and we had made a baby room up next to our room, though we all agreed, the baby will remain in her basinet in our room till she slept through the night. We still hadn t co up with any baby girl nas yet even though every night they scoured over baby na books trying to find one they liked. I didn t care what they nad her, I was dreading the ti I actually went into labour, I was quite content with her remaining in my belly, too scared for her to co out though, I was so big now I was also uncomfortable.

Walking downstairs I go into the kitchen where Thaddeus was making lunch. He puts a plate on the bench for with a salad sandwich on it.

"Mayo?" I ask and he nods.

"Yes, and barbeque sauce" he says knowing my strange salad craving. I take a bite, and he hands Ryland one without the barbeque sauce as he takes a seat beside .

"Orion and I will head into the city soon; you will be right here with Ryland?" he asks. I nod chewing my sandwich. Thaddeus kisses my head and Orion walks into the kitchen leaning on the door.

"Ring us if you need us," he says to Ryland and Ryland salutes him. I laugh but Orion rolls his eyes before walking in and kissing my head and Ryland s.

"We better leave. I don t like her being here of a night with only one of us," Thaddeus says grabbing a bag and tossing it over his shoulder.

"She will be fine, just go," Ryland says waving them off. They both leave but not before sending nervous glances, I felt good, yet I had this nagging feeling in the back of my head, like they shouldn t go, that sothing bad was going to happen. Ignoring it, I finished my sandwich.

"What s wrong?" Ryland asks after they leave.

"Nothing think I am just getting nervous," I tell him.

"That s understandable," he says grabbing my empty plate.

"Co on, we will watch a movie" he says holding his hand out to . I let him lead to loungeroom and we watch a movie. After the second movie, I hear the pitter patter of rain on the roof and jump up, running for the laundry.

Ryland jumps up alard. "What is it?" he asks following .

"The washing is on the line."

"Leave it, we will get later" He argues but I ignore him, grabbing the basket and rushing out the door to the clothesline. I start pulling the clothes off the line, looking nervously to the sky that was darkening as night begun to fall, storm clouds moving across the sky when I see lightning.

"Just leave it Evelyn, you and your nesting is driving nuts" he says but helps to drag the clothes off. We end leaving half of them as they beca too wet and Ryland runs the baskets back inside while I waddle toward the house, my clothes damp and sticking to as I shiver from the rain.

Ryland walks out when I hear a loud alarm noise suddenly go off, making look toward the house when suddenly Ryland runs at .

I stood there shocked for a second wondering what he was doing when his body suddenly lands on , knocking to the ground on the wet grass. He makes a gurgled noise before I feel sothing hit him, knocking the air out his lungs. Ryland rolls off , and a sharp pain radiates through my stomach making scream. Ryland tries to get up when I realise, he is covered in little red dots. My eyes snapping to our surroundings but not able to see anything. When Ryland voice chokes out.

"Run" He chokes coughing up blood, he pulls on my arm sitting up and I could hear people running through the trees and the dirt driveway. He stands up, and I see his shirt is soaked with blood, his pain radiating into through the bond, and I don t understand how he is able to force himself up.

"Ryland!" I squeal pressing my hand on his wound trying to stem the bleeding.

"Run, now Evelyn" He screams just as I hear guns start going off everywhere. Ryland shoves and I hear the bullets whiz past as I stumble before I get up and run, running for the tree line of the forest. I hear Ryland groan loudly before hearing a ferocious growl ring out, echoing off the trees. I don t dare look back instead concentrate on running without falling. My hand trying to hold my belly as I moved, pain running through my stomach and groin with each step.

I see the tree line getting closer, can hear people yelling and screaming when I feel it. Feel like I have been punched in the shoulder. Ignoring the pain, I keep running when I feel my muscles go funny, my body becoming weaker and I feel sothing hit again this ti in the lower back making gasp, as I clutch at it. My hand coming in contact with sothing, and I pull it out looking at it. I could feel my surrounding becoming a blur of green, as I stare at the dart I just pulled out of my back. The dart slipping from my fingers and I see the ground rush toward my face.

My entire body going numb, and I felt my limbs beco heavy before I hear voices, the voices getting closer and closer until they sound like they are right on top of .

"Got her, bring the other one" I hear a deep male voice call out. I try to open my eyes, yet they feel too heavy, even breathing felt hard as I fought to take each breath. I feel movent, my head rolling back as soone grabs .

"Ryland," I breathe. Trying to talk but the words co out slurred and muffled.

"Hurry we need to get back before their mates get back here."

I feel the darkness creeping in, black swallowing my consciousness as I slip into oblivion.

Waking up, I find myself on the ground. The cold concrete floor making my limbs ache. Sitting up, my eyes were blurry, and I could sll a strong sll that reminded of chlorine. Looking around, I gasp when I see Ryland braced to a wall by cuffs holding his arms to the wall. His body slumped over, and I could see blood pooling around him. I roll onto all fours trying to crawl my way over to him. Each movent sending searing pain across my stomach that takes my breath.

"Ryland" I stamr trying to breathe through the overwhelming pain. I was weak, so weak, I had to lay down on the cold ground. My limbs unwilling to do what I needed them to do.

"Ryland" I ask again, my voice cracking and sore as I try to speak. I hear him groan and I turn my head to see him move, his head before he suddenly starts jerking his arms trying to free himself, the braces not budging. I notice his wrists bleeding and I can t help the sob that leaves my lips at seeing him so badly injured.

"Silver" he mutters, his eyes going to .

"Don t cry, I am fine" he says though I could clearly feel he wasn t fine through the bond. His pain radiating into with my own. He looks around the room before coughing. Blood spraying out of his mouth onto the floor and his breathing wheezes when I notice the wound on his chest pouring with blood.

"You re not healing" I tell him, and he coughs.

"Don t worry about , can you get over to " He sputters out, blood dribbling down his chin. I try to get up, falling face first into the concrete, my limbs feeling like jelly but I after a few attempts I managed to crawl over to him putting my head on his lap, when I felt it. My legs becoming saturated, and I feel like I wet myself.

"No, no not now" I cry. Ryland looks down at before he gasps.

"Shit your waters have broken" He coughs out before trying to get his arms free but failing.

He starts screaming out for soone. Screaming trying to get their attention when I hear footsteps on the ground behind the steel door. Pain moving across my abdon, so sharp my body jerks when I feel my insides tearing and I let out a bloodcurdling scream of agony. Ryland screaming out when the door suddenly opens.

"Help her, she in labour. You need to let out or she will die."

"Nice try, Lycan," says a voice but I was lost to the pain, not able to concentrate on anything but the agony I was in. I feel soone grabbing my arms and legs. I writhe in pain as the pain rushes throughout my body when I hear a sickening crack, my ribs breaking, and I scream as I feel her move within .

"Get her to the infirmary now," I hear an unfamiliar female voice call out before I am placed on sothing cold and hard.
