In an instant, I felt all the blood in my body gather in my brain. An impulse drove me to break free of Alpha's hold, reach out a hand-knife, and slash the side of the woman's neck.
With one hit, the woman's eyes rolled back, and she slumped to the floor next to the table. According to my experience, she will be unconscious for at least two hours.
After subduing her, however, my condition was noticeably worse. I felt my mouth go dry and my body heated up. A strange feeling surged through me, making me involuntarily move closer to Alpha.
I hadn't forgotten why I was here. I pushed myself up and looked over at Alpha. "How's Noelle? Is he okay? He asked me for help this morning…"
Alpha's eyes grew darker. One look at him and he looked like he was falling into an endless maelstrom, distracting me. He opened his mouth as if to say, "Stupid woman."
