My head was pounding in sync with the excessive beeping that just wouldn’t stop. Why is no one stopping the beeping? I wanted to yell but I couldn’t get my body to do what I wanted it to do. It felt heavy and I couldn’t move. The only thing keeping me from panicking is the warm hand holding mine. I knew it was Blake. He’s the only one who can send tingles through my body with his touch.

When I managed to open my eyes, the room was dark and my mate was sitting in a chair beside the bed I was in. He had his head resting against my hip, gently snoring as he held my hand in his.

Events from earlier came rushing back but I chose to ignore them for now. Right now I just needed my mate. By the time ! ran my fingers of my other hand through Blake’s dark hair, I was exhausted.

“Lily, please keep our pup safe,” I whispered as I closed my eyes. I could hear her snoring. It didn’t take long before I was asleep again.

And I’m thankful you healed her when you did, I am but I’m not putting her life at risk again.” I heard Blake say.

Healing me? Daughter? Was he talking to my mother? But why was she even here? The pounding in my head returned as I tried to place the pieces of what had happened together.

I didn’t have to wait long before Blake stormed into the room. He quickly took the seat beside me again and grabbed my hand. He leaned forward bringing my hand to his lips. I hoped he would have noticed I was awake but he seemed deep in thought. He was grumbling to himself and his pout was adorable as I watched him.
