Logan POVIt had been a few hours since Emma woke up and fell back asleep again. I was sitting on a chair next to her bed, holding her hand in mine, letting the sparks and tingles soothe me. Andrew was asleep with his head on her belly. I couldn’t sleep. I couldn’t keep my eyes away from her face, hoping that she would open her eyes again. I memorized everything about her. I memorized how her lashes were so long that they touched her cheek slightly, how her lips were full and perfectly shaped, how her cheeks were tinted pink and soft. I just needed her to open her eyes so that I could memorize them as well. I wanted to know each and every color and fleck her eyes held. Not that I didn’t know already, but I wanted to be reminded. I wanted to see it again. I was playing with her fingers and I must’ve zoned out because when I focused on her face again, there was something new, something that wasn’t there before.Tears. My breath got caught in my throat and my heart tugged painfully i
Andrew POVMy heart clenched painfully when I saw the fear in her eyes. My legs moved on their own, and before I knew it, I was standing next to her bed, cupping her face. “You are safe, Emma.” I said, looking at her wide eyes. “She can’t hurt you anymore.”The fear in her eyes turned to confusion. I furrowed my eyebrows. Why was she confused?“You didn’t believe her?” she asked quietly as she removed my hands from her face.My heart broke when she rejected my touch. She hated me. My sister hated me. I gulped and blinked the tears away.“I will let you talk.” Wren said, making me look at him. “I will be back later to do some tests. Call me if anything happens.”I nodded and turned back to look at Emma. She was still looking at me, confused. I hesitatingly took her hand in mine. I was so fucking scared that she would pull away. But she didn’t. I relaxed slightly. As soon as Wren left the room, Logan came to stand on the other side of her bed. She looked at him, furrowing her eyebrows
Emma POVWhat the hell was going on? Was I really awake? Was this really happening? This couldn’t be real, right?I was imagining it. Yes. I was still dreaming or I was dead and my mind created this world where I was safe with my brother. Because it didn’t make any sense for all of this to be true. Why would my brother believe me all of a sudden? Why would Logan accept me now? It wasn’t like I had gotten any stronger. On the contrary, actually. I was even weaker now. I’d lost weight and my whole body was in pain. I couldn’t feel Eliza. I was useless. But why was I imagining myself in a hospital and not at home in my bed? That would have definitely been better. I was staring at the door, barely breathing. What do I do? Could I go outside? Could I even move?I really wanted to find my parents. Would I be able to see them here? I should, right? If my mind created this place, I should be able to see my mom and dad.But before I could move, the door to my room opened and doctor Wren w
Andrew POVMy heart was pounding like crazy. It felt like it was going to jump out of my body any second. She actually thought she was dead. She didn’t think it was possible for us to search for her. She thought we hated her.I looked down at my pup and tightened my hold on her. I felt her relax into my embrace.“Sleep, little one.” I mumbled as I kissed the top of her head. “I love you.”I leaned back on the headboard and placed Emma on my chest. I rubbed small circles on her back, hoping it would put her to sleep. It always worked when she was little.“I would like to give her something to help her sleep and another dose of antibiotics.” Wren said. “She still has wolfsbane in her body and the infection isn’t gone yet. She needs rest. She will be less confused when she wakes up.”I nodded, not moving my gaze from my sister. I could feel her even breaths on my chest, indicating that she had fallen asleep. I looked up at Logan. He was staring at Emma. I could see pain and anger clear
Logan POVI’d never been more relieved in my life than the moment I left the interrogation room drenched in Sienna’s blood.Her screams were music to my ears. Her tears made me the happiest I’d ever been.I really was a sick motherfucker. But I would be whatever the fuck I needed to be to avenge my mate.“You need to give her some food and water if you want to keep her alive.” Drake said as he closed the door to the room. I pulled the key out of my pocket and locked the door.“Give her something to eat and drink.” I said, turning to the guard. “If she refuses, shove a tube down her fucking throat.”I turned around, not waiting for the guard’s response. “Are you going back to the hospital?” Drake asked.“As soon as we take a shower.” Andrew answered.My friend was a sick son of a bitch. He enjoyed torturing Sienna even more than I did. The way he carved words into her skin was brutal to watch. He was smiling the entire time. If I didn’t know him like I did, I would be terrified of h
Andrew POVLogan’s eyes changed color. They were pitch black. But I couldn’t give a fuck. I wasn’t lying to my sister again. I wasn’t going to risk losing her. Not again.“How dare you?!” Logan screamed. “I’m your Alpha!”“Right now, you are a man who wants to lie to my sister.” I gritted my teeth. “Right now, you are a man who wants my sister. And I don’t give a flying fuck about you being an Alpha!”Logan growled, and Drake shot me a warning look. “Andrew, calm down.” Drake said. “You don’t want to go there.”I knew that what I said was dangerous. I was shooting at an Alpha’s ego and I could end up getting hurt. But, like I said, I didn’t give a fuck. My sister meant more to me than a thousand Alphas combined. He wasn’t lying to her. He wasn’t making me go through the fear of losing her again. Logan was shooting daggers at me and growling. His canines flew out of his mouth and fur started growing on his chest.“Take. It. Back.” he growled, emphasizing each word.“Take what back?
Emma POVI woke up feeling terrible. My whole body was in pain and my brain felt like it went through a blender. I remembered everything. I remembered waking up, being sure I was dead, and Andrew and Logan convincing me that I was alive.I believed them now because there was no way I would be dead and in so much pain, right?I groaned and opened my eyes. “Emma.” I heard someone say. “How are you feeling?”I turned my head and saw doctor Wren standing next to my bed, checking the machines around me. “Like I’ve been hit by a train.” I mumbled. “Understandable.” Doctor Wren said. “I’m going to give you something to help you with the pain.”I nodded and looked around the room. Where was my brother? Where was Logan? My breathing picked up and I felt fear crawling up my spine.“Emma?” doctor Wren called me. “What’s wrong, sweetie?”“Where is my brother?” I asked, my voice trembling.“He went home to shower and change his clothes.” he said, taking my hand in his. “I will tell him you wok
Emma POVFor the next 45 minutes, Andrew and I talked and laughed. The pain in my body lessened after doctor Wren gave me something for it, but it still hurt. What I really needed was my mate. But I couldn’t ask for him.The door to my room burst open, and Logan ran inside. My skin tingled at the sight of him. He was wearing black sweatpants and a tight black t-shirt that looked a size too small thanks to all of his muscles. His hair was messy, and his beard only made him look hotter. Normally, he would shave. I wondered why he let his beard grow.My lower belly tingled, and if I could feel Eliza, I knew that she would be drooling. “Hey, baby, I’m so sorry I’m late.” Logan said as he hurried toward me. “My mom wanted to talk to me about the pack.”Logan grabbed my hand in his and sat down on the chair next to my bed. The pain in my body almost disappeared with his touch.I furrowed my eyebrows. “What about the pack?”“She’s been in charge for the last few days, so she wanted to get
