Chapter 290: Chapter 290 A Violent Storm

Logan’s POV

A violent storm was raging inside my heart.

My Emma was struggling and there was nothing I could do. She kept whimpering quietly. She kept shivering and thrashing. Her fever kept rising and no matter how many cold towels I put on her body, it just wouldn’t go down.

“Come on, baby,” I mumbled as I tightened my arms around her. “Come back to me.”

I was lying next to her, pressing her whole body against mine. Our mate bond should be able to help with the fever. She should feel a bit better. It should help her. It had to help her.

I ran my hand down her back. I reached under her shirt and almost whined when I felt how hot her back was. She felt like she was on fire.

Another quiet whimper escaped her and I had to hold back a sob.

I couldn’t help her with whatever the fuck was going on and it was killing me.

“Dad!” I heard my daughter’s voice and I looked up.

My princess was standing on the other side of the window, staring at her mom with a terrified look on her face.

“What’s wrong with Mom?!” she cried out.

I looked down at my mate and kissed her forehead.

“She has a fever, princess,” I said as I caressed Emma’s burning cheek. “She is fighting so hard.”

Sophie sobbed and I looked up at her. Alex wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her to him.

I looked behind them and saw Daisy. She was wiping her cheeks with one hand and rubbing Andrew’s back with the other.

Andrew looked like shit. He needed to go eat and sleep.

“Can you please take him home, Daisy?” I said, making Andrew shake his head.

“I am not leaving her,” he said as he took a step closer to the window. “I am staying here.”

“Andrew, honey...,” Daisy spoke, but he interrupted her.
