Chapter 33 The Fever

Andrew POV

“She smells like you.” Logan mumbled.

“She does.” I smiled, running my fingers through her hair.

“I don’t like it.” he frowned. “But I would have her smell like you forever if it meant she would live.”

“She will.” I said quietly. “She is not dying.”

I caressed her cheek and kissed her hand.

“The doctor says you can hear us, Emma.” I said. “I need you to know how sorry I am. I was a complete idiot. I didn’t believe you, and you were telling me the truth. It is my fault this happened to you. I hope you can forgive me. You are all I have in this world and I

don’t know what I would do if you left me. I love you, Em. Please don’t leave me.”

I never moved my gaze from her face. Oh, Goddess, how I wished that she would open her eyes. But there was nothing. She was completely still.

I placed her hand on my cheek, needing to feel her touch.

“I was a terrible mate.” Logan sighed. “I rejected you without giving you a chance. And I was wrong, Emma. I was so wrong. I can’t begin to explain how sorry I am. I should have stopped her. I should have protected you. But I am not going anywhere, my love. I will not leave you again. You are mine and I hope you can forgive me. I hope you will let me be the mate you deserve.”

Logan closed his eyes and took a deep

breath.

“I, Logan Carter, Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack, accept you, Emma Parker of the Crescent Moon Pack as my mate and Luna.” Logan said as he opened his eyes.

The machine that was monitoring her heart beeped. Her heart rate increased slightly.

“She heard you.” I mumbled quietly, staring at the monitor.

A huge smile spread across Logan’s face. “You heard me, love?”

My gaze went back to Emma. Nothing on her face showed that she had heard him, but I knew that she did.

“Goddess, Emma.” I said and leaned closer to her. “You can hear us, can’t

you? Please come back. Fight. Don’t leave us. We need you.”
