Wow ... how will Colby feel knowing his missed out on his daughter's life? Ellie xo
Amelie POVWe fly into the Pack hospital parking lot and a team is waiting to take their Alpha into surgery. Blake had mind-linked ahead so that everyone was ready. As the back door flew open, I heard the gasps from the medical team. It was a miracle Matt was still alive given the abuse his body had taken. I took that as a good sign. He was fighting and that was all I could pray for.I get out of the way so everyone could gently move Matt to the gurney. I cringed as I saw the wounds on his chest. They were infected. I knew that would cause complications, but I could not dwell on that. As the medical team raced towards the hospital entrance, I went to follow them when Blake took hold of my arm.“You need to let them do their work, Amelie. You will be in the way,” he says quietly. I know he was trying to help but I felt strongly my mate needed me. “He needs you to be ready to help him heal when the doctors finish with him,” Blake adds as if reading my mind. Nodding, I look
Amelie POVI sit back and hold my breath. Silence ensues. Nothing happens. There is no gasp of breath. No sitting up and hugging me. Nothing but silence. Kate turns around slowly and moves towards Matt’s body. She looks at me in surprise, “He has a pulse,” she says sounding excited. I expected more. But I would take a pulse as a win.I look at her expectantly. “Let’s gently move him into the back of the SUV. Put blankets down first and then I need a warrior at every point of his body. Do not let him bend. Anything will cause more damage and we could lose him,” she says curtly.Hope. I have hope. Maybe this would work. Kate looks to me, “Amelie, he is holding on. You need to be prepared for the worst and hope for the best,” she says to me. “I choose to hope for the best,” I say as I move towards the SUV waiting for them to transport Matt into the vehicle.The warriors are so gentle it brings tears to my eyes. Rosie is there passing me a t-shirt, which I appreciate. S
Amelie POV“We need to move him to the vehicle. Get the SUV here now!” I scream out to the warriors. I hear an SUV coming around the building and it stops beside us. “Amelie, moving him is not safe,” Kate says trying to reach me. “He needs a hospital, Kate; I will not sit here and watch him die,” I say as I feel our bond weaken once again.“There would be one thing that might have helped,” she says quietly. “What? I will do anything!” I scream at her. “The bite of his mate,” she says knowing that would be the one thing I could not do. I look at her in stunned silence. It was my fault. It would be my fault that Matt would die. After everything I was able to overcome, this would be the defining moment of my life. I would die with Matt. I do not want to live without him.I am torn by pain once again in my stomach only this time it is more severe. I look to Matt with tears streaming down my face. Maybe the pain of losing him will ensure my immediate death. Otherwise, I will
Amelie POVAs I throw all my strength into twisting his neck, I am shocked at the intense emotion that runs through me. The look of fear and loneliness that crosses his face as I somehow manage to break his neck. I feel instant stabbing pain course through my chest, and I fall to the ground as his body falls beside me.I see dead eyes staring at me. The silence in the yard is deafening. Suddenly I hear a fierce growl and turn to see the twin’s Beta charging at me. Before I can think Colby is there, cutting him off, and they are in a battle. The Beta is continuing to try and reach me but all I can do is sit there grabbing at my chest.I had known this man for mere minutes and yet the pain was that of a lifetime. The fact that I had killed him, may have intensified the feelings. I am torn out of my despair when I hear Kate yell for me. Matt. I jump up and run to Kate. As I do I realize more rogues are starting to spill into the yard. I see the warriors starting to fight as Co
Amelie POVTears are streaming down my cheeks. “What do you want?” I scream trying to make sense of what was happening. Matt was slumped over and not moving. I knew he was not dead, as I could still feel our bond. However, it was not as strong as it once was. If I did not think quickly, I would lose him.The twin looks at me like he is struggling. As a mate his natural inclination would be to help his fated mate. But he is struggling internally with his own goals and that of his fated nature. “I am sorry this could not have been easier,” he says as he pulls me away from Matt.I glance back and see Matt’s head bob up, but the strength it took to do so took a toll. He quickly dropped his head, and I heard him whisper, “I am sorry.”. Do not give up, I say through our mind-link. I know he cannot hear me, but it helps me feel like I am able to speak to him. I cannot draw any more attention to him. He cannot take any more.We stop near Rosie. She is released and she rubs her wr
Amelie POVI am dragged from Matt as I hear him growl at the aggressive nature of the man. The man stops about ten feet from Matt and tries to drag me into his arms. I kick and scream fighting him with all my strength.“Now mate, I am sure this is not how you greeted Matt,” he says to me. I ignore his comments continuing to struggle in the arms of this stranger. “Calm down, we have time to get to know each other,” he says as he releases me.I fall to the ground and look up at him. I cannot get over how he is identical to Matt in looks. Clearly not in personality but in looks for sure. “Can you not see my brother is not long for this world?” he taunts me.I look to Matt who is struggling to pay attention to what is happening around him. My heart is breaking but I need him to hold on long enough for help to arrive. “What do you want?” I ask of the twin. “Well of course I want you,” he starts to say when I cut him off. “You cannot have me. What is your name?” I demand thinking
