\u201cI\u2019ll make some room for her,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019ll just need a signed release from the hospital. Considering Gavin is a Lycan Chairman, we don\u2019t need a signed release from the Churchill family.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I nodded, relieved that I didn\u2019t need to seek out anyone else in that family. I had had enough of them for one lifetime.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll go with you to get that release,\u201d I said, reluctantly stepping away from Judy. \u201cWill you be okay here alone for a minute?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She nodded, giving me a small smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you for doing this,\u201d she said softly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I tucked a dark strand of hair behind her ears and cupped her face gently.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll do anything for you,\u201d I told her before I pressed my lips to hers, soaking her in.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She melted against me, deepening the kiss slightly before pulling back; her cheeks were flushed, and my God, she was beautiful.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I pulled away again and went with Eliza to the nurses\u2019 station. There were a couple of women standing behind the counter area, seemingly gossiping and chuckling about something that had nothing to do with work. I couldn\u2019t help but roll my eyes at them; if they were in my pack, I would have fired them by now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But this was neutral territory, which meant I couldn\u2019t touch them. Instead, I put my hands on the counter and glared at them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you two are done spreading gossip, I need a signed release form for Megan Churchill,\u201d I said, startling them both.\u00a0<\/p>\n
One of them widened her eyes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHoly shit, that\u2019s Gavin Landry,\u201d she said, her voice raspy with fear and shock.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe most powerful Lycan Chairman?\u201d The other one asked, her eyes just as wide. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes\u2026\u201d The first girl said, her voice coming out barely above a whisper now. \u201cI\u2019ve seen him in magazines\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd is that Eliza Pierce?\u201d The other asked. \u201cShe\u2019s one of the best doctors in the world. What is she doing in a small hospital like this?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow about you ladies stop asking each other questions and just do what I asked,\u201d I said, my patience running thin. \u201cWe don\u2019t have a lot of time, and we\u2019d like to get out of here sooner than later.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, of course,\u201d the first girl said, bowing her head slightly. \u201cI\u2019m Jamie\u2026 and this is my coworker, Abby.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, we don\u2019t care,\u201d I said, not caring that I sounded like a dick. \u201cWe are in a hurry.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jamie nodded quickly, tucking a strand of her red hair behind her ear.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course, Alpha. I\u2019m so sorry for the wait,\u201d she said as she hurried over to the computer to type up the release form.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I may ask\u2026. Why the sudden interest in Miss Churchill? She\u2019s not exactly favored here\u2026 we were told she was penniless, and she means nothing to the Churchill family. As long as we keep up appearances and she appears to be monitored and in decent condition, they don\u2019t care what we do with her,\u201d Abby explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My jaw tensed at her words. They were truly shameless here.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s my business,\u201d I said, leaving it at that.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She pressed her lips together and nodded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, of course, Sir. Sorry to pry,\u201d she murmured.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jamie returned a moment later with a paper.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHere\u2019s the release form as requested,\u201d she said, handing me the paper. \u201cIt just needs her doctor\u2019s signature. It\u2019s Dr. Lipton. He\u2019s on the third floor right now, taking care of one of his terminally ill patients.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ll head up there right now,\u201d I said, turning away from them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Eliza followed me as I walked to the elevator. Minutes later we were standing in front of Dr. Lipton, an aged man with large glasses and lines of stress around his eyes and mouth. He looked surprised to see us standing outside his patient\u2019s hospital door. We were about to knock, but he opened the door and stepped out before we had the chance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
We had to ask one of the third-floor nurses which room Dr. Lipton was in before we proceeded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlpha Landry?\u201d He asked with wide eyes. \u201cW\u2026what honor do we have for this visit?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI need you to sign this,\u201d I said without a single greeting. \u201cIt\u2019s a release form for Megan Churchill.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His eyes widened even more as he took in the paper I was holding,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m afraid the Churchill\u2019s forbid me to release her,\u201d he said. \u201cThey paid-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhatever they paid, I\u2019ll double it,\u201d I said without hesitation. \u201cJust send the bill to my beta, and we will have it covered.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His jaw dropped.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you sure, Alpha?\u201d He asked. \u201cMegan isn\u2019t really worth all that money.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s important to my mate, which means she\u2019s important to me,\u201d I said. \u201cSign the papers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I wasn\u2019t giving him a choice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He took the pen I was holding and scribbled his signature across the page. I snatched it back and turned to leave. Eliza followed me, keeping her head down.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou should be warned, Alpha,\u201d Dr. Lipton called after me. \u2018Megan Churchill is dangerous. If she were to ever come out of this coma\u2026 I worry about what she will do to this world.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His words made me pause for a moment, but I didn\u2019t say anything in return. I continued to walk away. I needed to get back to my mate,\u00a0<\/p>\n
