Chapter 421: Back To The Mansion

THIRD-PERSON POV

He frowned. "Take you where?"

"Back to the pack house."

"Rebecca, you’re in no condition to leave the facility."

"Please. I don’t want to spend the entire night locked inside this room."

Kaden glanced at the suppressant in his hand. The pack house was only five minutes away, and he could arrange for the healer to attend to her there if necessary. Still, he wasn’t willing to risk allowing her condition to worsen during the journey.

"Rebecca, listen carefully. I’ll take you home, but I need you to let the healer give you the suppressant first."

She looked up at him and immediately shook her head.

"No, Kaden. I don’t want to take it here."

Kaden frowned. "Rebecca, what difference does it make whether you receive the suppressant here or at the pack house?"

"Please, Kaden. We can take it when we get home. I promise I won’t refuse it again. I just want to leave this place."

He studied her for a moment, clearly displeased with her stubbornness.

"Rebecca, the full moon is almost here. We don’t have time for this."

"I know," she whispered, tightening her hold on his hand. "But the pack house is only five minutes away. Please."

Kaden glanced at the clock on the wall. There was barely any time left before the full moon, and Rebecca’s condition was becoming increasingly difficult to manage. He knew arguing with her would only waste more time.

"Fine," he finally said with a frustrated sigh. "We’ll administer the suppressant at the pack house. But I’m warning you, Rebecca, there will be no more arguments when we get there. Understood?"

She nodded immediately. "Yes."

"Good."

Without wasting another moment, Kaden contacted Logan through their mind link.

Logan.

Yes, Kaden?

Get my car ready. We’re leaving for the pack house immediately.

What about Rebecca? Has she received the suppressant?

Not yet. She’s refusing to take it here. I’ve agreed to let her receive it at the pack house.

Alright. I’ll have the car ready.

And make sure the entrance is clear. I don’t want anyone delaying us.

Understood.

Kaden ended the mind link and carefully placed the suppressant injection inside its protective case before picking it up from the bedside table. He then turned toward Rebecca.

"Come here."

She immediately stretched out her arms, and Kaden slipped one arm beneath her knees and the other around her back, lifting her effortlessly from the bed.

The moment he did, Rebecca wrapped both arms tightly around his neck and pressed herself against his chest.

"Kaden..." she whispered.

"What is it now?"

Instead of answering, she buried her face against the side of his neck and inhaled deeply. A soft, needy moan escaped her lips. She opened her mouth and licked his skin slowly, tasting him. Then she did it again, longer this time, her tongue dragging along the side of his throat.

Kaden stiffened hard. "Rebecca..."

She pressed another open-mouthed kiss against his neck and sucked lightly.

"Fuck!" Kaden groaned, immediately tightening his hold around her. His cock throbbed painfully.

His wolf growled possessively.

Goddess! She’s driving us insane!

Kaden shut his eyes for a brief moment, struggling to maintain his composure. Rebecca was already in full-blown heat, and her pheromones were becoming almost impossible to ignore. Every instinct in him was urging him to throw her down and bury himself inside her, but he knew he couldn’t allow himself to lose control.

"Rebecca," he warned, his voice deepening. "If you don’t stop that, I’m going to put you down."

She raised her head slightly, her eyes clouded with desire.

"You wouldn’t."

Kaden stared at her. "Don’t test me."

She gave him a faint, mischievous smile before resting her head against his shoulder and licking his neck one more time.

Kaden exhaled sharply. "Goddess, this woman is going to be the death of me."

Without wasting another second, he carried her toward the door and stepped into the corridor, where the healer and Logan were waiting.

"Your Majesty?" the healer called, looking surprised. "Has Lady Rebecca received the suppressant?"

"No. We’re returning to the pack house," Kaden replied firmly. "I need you to come there immediately. Bring whatever medical supplies you might need and remain available until her condition is under control."

"Of course, Your Majesty."

"Good. Don’t waste any time."

The healer bowed, and Kaden turned toward Logan.

"Is my car ready?"

"Yes, Kaden. It’s waiting outside."

Kaden nodded and hurried down the corridor with Rebecca still clinging tightly to him. By the time they reached the main entrance, her scent had become even stronger, and Logan, who was walking beside them, instinctively swallowed hard.

The pheromones of a she-wolf in full-blown heat were difficult for any unmated male to ignore. Although Logan immediately looked away, Kaden noticed his reaction.

His expression darkened.

"Logan," he warned, a low growl rumbling from his chest.

Logan immediately understood what had provoked his reaction.

"Calm down, Kaden," he replied with a scoff.

Kaden shot him a warning glare.

Logan shook his head but wisely said nothing more.

Kaden continued toward the car, tightening his hold around Rebecca as another painful wave of heat swept through her body. She moaned softly against his neck and rubbed her thighs together.

"Ah..." she groaned, burying her face against his chest.

Kaden looked down at her with concern.

"Rebecca?"

"It hurts again."

"Damn it!"

He immediately quickened his steps, determined to get her back to the pack house before her condition deteriorated any further.

When they reached his car, Kaden opened the front passenger door and carefully lowered Rebecca onto the seat. However, the moment he tried to withdraw his arms, she tightened her grip around his neck.

"Kaden, please..."

He gently held her wrists.

"Sweetheart, I need you to let go so I can drive."

She looked at him with pleading eyes.

"Don’t leave me."

"I’m not leaving you. I’m sitting right beside you."

"Promise?"

"Yes, Rebecca. I promise."

She reluctantly released him, allowing Kaden to fasten her seat belt and make sure she was comfortable. He placed the suppressant case inside the car, within easy reach, before closing the passenger door.

Logan approached him.

"Kaden, are you sure you don’t want me to drive?"

"No. I’ll drive. Just make sure the healer follows immediately, and inform the guards at the pack house that we’re coming. I want the entrance cleared before we arrive."

"Understood."

Kaden nodded and hurried around the vehicle. He opened the driver’s door, climbed inside, and immediately started the engine.

Beside him, Rebecca shifted uncomfortably in her seat, struggling against another wave of heat. Soft, needy sounds kept leaving her throat. The scent of her wet pussy filled the closed space of the car.

"Kaden..."

He glanced at her, jaw tight, cock still hard and aching.

"Hold on, sweetheart. We’ll be home in five minutes."

She nodded weakly, pressing a trembling hand against her stomach.

Kaden tightened his grip around the steering wheel, shifted the car into gear, and drove away from the medical facility.
