Chapter 260
1 was seeing fucking red ! Who had attacked my nephew ? My first thought was Levi ; had he somehow gotten access to my villa ? 1 ran towards him and fell to the ground beside him ; I didnt think I just acted .
It was a flesh wound ; after a quick examination of the arrow , I knew it would be safe to pull out as long as I stopped the bleeding right away .
That was exactly what I did ; 1 pulled my shirt off and used that as a bandage to keep him from bleeding out .
I could already hear the sirens in the far distance and knew they were heading in our direction .
As I worked on stopping the bleeding , I asked Irene what had happened and that was when she told me that it was Judy who shot Matt with the arrow .
That was when I noticed her for the first time ; Judy sat against the tree ; she was in a daze , staring at Matt with a clouded expression and blood all over her .
She met my eyes , tears in glistening in them .
Rage and disappointment .
That was how I was feeling as I stared into her eyes .
How could she let something like this happen ?! How dare she put Matthew in harms way like this .
I knew she couldnt have done this on purpose , but still .
She was acting carelessly and now Matt was injured .
Yes , I knew he would be okay because it was only a flesh wound , and these arrows didnt contain any actual silver .
He would heal in no time with proper medical treatment , but Jody was supposed to protect him from this kind of thing .
It could have been so much worse if it shot anywhere else on his body .
I trusted her and she broke that trust .
I spoke without thinking ; I let my anger and rage take over completely and all I saw when I looked at her was red .
The EMTs quickly removed my shirt from around Matts leg and patched him with actual bandages .
They said that he wouldnt need to go to the hospital because he was already healing thanks to his Alpha bloodline .
They gave him some pain medication and told me that he would need to rest for a couple of days .
I carried a sleepy Matt , thanks to the pain medication , to his bedroom so he could sleep for the night .
He looked so pale and fragile at that moment .
My heart twisted painfully in my chest as I stared down at him .
He didnt deserve this , and I was furious that it had happened , but I also knew it wasnt on purpose .
Judy wouldnt have done this on purpose ; the expression she gave me when I ordered her to leave … she flinched as if she was afraid , I would hit her .
I needed to get to the bottom of what truly happened .
I knew Irene was downstairs , so I left Matts room and went straight for the parlor , following her scent .
Irene was seated on the couch with her arms wrapped around her body when I walked in .
She looked up at me and I could see the tears in her eyes .
Hows Matt ? She asked , nearly jumping off the couch .
Hes asleep .
But hes going to be fine .
He just needs to rest I told her .
She lowered herself back into the seat and sighed with relle 1/2 Chapter 266
Thank goddess , she whispered , resting her head on the couch cushion behind her .
I sat beside her , both of us remaining quiet for a moment .
Im going ot be gone for a few weeks .
Im leaving tomorrow night , I told her .
She nodded .
The Gamma competition , right ? She asked .
I nodded .
Beta Taylor will remain here .
Hell take care of business and you two , I told her .
Dad , I dont need a babysitter , she said , rolling her eyes .
Itll still make me feel better knowing hes here to watch over you , I said .
Plus , with Matt recovering , you could use the extra help .
