The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chapter 279\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re both incredibly lucky,\u201d he said, looking between Sarah and me. \u201cAnd incredibly tough, most people wouldn\u2019t have been able to hold their own the way you two did.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe had good teachers,\u201d Sarah said, glancing at Orion.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd we weren\u2019t alone,\u201d I added. \u201cKiara and the others came when we needed them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Dr. Chen set up an IV for Sarah as well, saying she needed fluids just like I did, and then he\u00a0<\/p>\n
packed up his medical bag.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m going to step outside and let you both rest,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I\u2019m not going anywhere, if you\u00a0<\/p>\n
need anything, anything at all, you call for me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you,\u201d I said. \u201cReally, thank you so much.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cJust doing my job,\u201d he said with a kind smile, and then he left the room, closing the door softly\u00a0<\/p>\n
behind him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
For a moment, the four of us just sat there in silence, processing everything that had happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then Orion spoke. \u201cI want to know everything,\u201d he said, his voice low and dangerous. \u201cEvery\u00a0<\/p>\n
detail of what happened here tonight.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sarah and I exchanged glances, and then Sarah began to tell the story, starting with when the three phones had rung simultaneously at dinner, describing how she and I had put the kids down and were waiting, how we\u2019d received the threatening texts, how we\u2019d heard the glass break in the\u00a0<\/p>\n
kitchen.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I picked up the story from there, describing the fight, how Sarah had been incredible, how we\u2019d held them off as long as we could.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou were amazing,\u201d I said to Sarah. \u201cI\u2019ve never seen anyone fight like that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI started training at age fifteen, but then Orion completed the training,\u201d she said simply, looking at him with love in her eyes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI trained you to protect yourself and our children,\u201d Orion said, his voice rough with emotion. \u201cI\u00a0<\/p>\n

never wanted you to have to use it like this.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I\u2019m glad I could,\u201d Sarah said. \u201cI\u2019m glad I knew how to fight when it mattered.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
32%3\u00a0<\/p>\n
I continued the story, describing how we\u2019d been tiring, how the men had been gaining the upper hand, how I\u2019d been fighting the urge to shift because I couldn\u2019t let them know about the baby,\u00a0<\/p>\n
couldn\u2019t give them a target.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou almost shifted?\u201d Tristan asked, concern flooding his voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI was trying so hard not to,\u201d I admitted. \u201cMy wolf was going crazy, she wanted out, wanted to protect the baby, but I knew if I shifted, things might get worse.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo you fought it,\u201d he said, wonder in his voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI fought it,\u201d I confirmed. \u201cRight up until Kiara and the others burst through the door.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sarah finished the story, describing how Leah, Kiara and her friends had turned the tide of the fight, how we\u2019d managed to subdue all four attackers, how the guards had arrived and taken them\u00a0<\/p>\n
into custody.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd then you texted us,\u201d Orion said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd then we texted you,\u201d Sarah confirmed. \u201cAnd then we waited for you to come home.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tristan\u2019s hand found mine again and he brought it to his lips. \u201cI should have been here,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI should have been here to protect you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou were protecting everyone,\u201d I said. \u201cThat\u2019s what you\u2019re supposed to do.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re my mate,\u201d he said fiercely. \u201cYou\u2019re carrying my child, you\u2019re my priority.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe attack at the border was a diversion,\u201d Orion said quietly. \u201cThey drew us away on purpose so\u00a0<\/p>\n
they could come after our families.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWho?\u201d I asked. \u201cWho planned this?\u201d Tristan and Orion exchanged a dark look.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ll talk about it later,\u201d Tristan said. \u201cAfter you\u2019ve rested.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTell me now,\u201d I said. \u201cI deserve to know who tried to hurt me, who tried to hurt Sarah and the\u00a0<\/p>\n

kids.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
B\u00a0<\/p>\n
Another look passed between them and then Orion sighed,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was Daxon\u2019s family,\u201d he said. \u201cHis father and brothers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
My blood went cold. \u201cWhat?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
