บท 60: Everything stood still.

Alpha Zayne Steel

'The f**k,' I cursed on the bedroom floor beside my bed. I woke up with a start at the loud blaring of a horn and some ear-piercing feedback from what sounded like a speaker.

I heard, "we mean you no harm. We have a warrant to search every home in this community, as we have information that one of the wolves here has kidnapped a nurse and a doctor"…

'Zayne!' I heard Mekhi's eager voice poking in. I let him in and answered, 'Yes, Mekhi, tell me what's happening.'

'It's the army, Zayne. The f**king military is here, hundreds of men. I jumped up quickly from the floor and headed straight to my closet, grabbing jeans and a shirt. I then went into the bathroom.

I was going to grab a quick shower. I told Mekhi to give me a minute. 'The f**k you mean?' Mekhi responded. Mekhi must think I was losing my mind to be this calm after they announced they would search the property.
