Charlotte's POVAs if kissing him in my presence wasn't enough, she even cupped his face with both of her hands.I couldn't tell how I felt; my heart broke. It isn't as though I was in love with Alex, so why was I feeling this way? Have I been deceiving myself all this while that I wasn't in love with him? Could this feeling of betrayal that washed over me still be because of the marking? Then screw this mark I have on me, because I hate this feeling.I watched as Alex stared down at her without saying anything, and I could only imagine one thing as his thoughts, the perfect lady to be his Luna.I scoffed, and I guess I interrupted their moment because their heads snapped to where I was. I was quick to turn away from them, but I came face to face with Leo, who I guess has been standing behind me all this while.I walked away from him and began heading out of the door, but a hand suddenly held my hand from behind.I was pulled back, and just then I met their eyes, which were watching m

Charlotte's POVI groaned as the sound of the ECG machine kept ringing in my head, as if forcing me out of unconsciousness.I slowly fluttered my eyes open, but they immediately flew closed due to the sunlight that had almost blinded me.I turned in another direction, picked up a cushion, and covered myself with it, wanting to go back to sleep since my attempt to wake up was interrupted.I felt a presence behind me, which was followed by someone turning me back to the position I was in.I squinted my eyes but didn't open them, fearing that the sunlight might blind me this time.I couldn't even perceive the scent of whoever was behind me, and I wondered if the person didn't have a scent."It's okay now, you can open your eyes," I heard someone say, and their voice was also distant.I slowly fluttered my eyes open again, and this time I wasn't blinded by the sunlight. It seems they've pulled down the curtains to help me see.I couldn't see properly; I only saw the figure of a man who wa

Alex POVI was seated in my office, silently staring at the trees swaying in the wild breeze outside.I haven't been able to concentrate on anything after the incident that happened.Charlotte had been in a coma after falling from the tree she had climbed, and woke up yesterday.Unfortunately, she convulsed and slipped back into a coma yesterday. The doctor tried to do what he could, but she had already slipped into a coma again. I doubt she stayed awake for an hour before she fell asleep again.I was watching through the CCTV camera in her room and noticed how she had been staring weirdly at the doctor.I ran out of the room when she began convulsing, only to be met with a heartbreaking sight.She was struggling, I knew, but given how weak she was, she couldn't conquer it, and I couldn't help either.Once again, I almost lost my mate for the second time.I bear the guilt of everything. It was my fault. I shouldn't have given orders for her to be shot, but that was the only way to sto

Alex's POVI quietly pushed the door to my room open and peered through it, only to find Charlotte and Ryder seated on the bed, staring at each other.I stepped into the room and closed the door behind me before slowly approaching the bed and sitting beside Ryder.Charlotte had woken up a week late after she went into a coma for the second time. After spending a week in the hospital, she was brought back home.She hasn't said a word to anyone. All she did was stare, just as she's doing now.Ryder turned to me when he noticed my presence, and I felt pity for him. By the look on his face, I knew he wasn't reacting well to all this.It must be strange for him."Ryder, could you give me a minute?" I asked calmly, gently stroking his hair.He nodded before climbing down the bed and leaving the room, slowly closing the door behind him with a light thud.I quietly stared at the closed door before turning to the lady whose presence was now difficult to detect.I rubbed my palms together, thin

Alex's POV"You just said you cheated.""I'm sorry, I won't do it again," I apologized, before raising my gaze to meet her eyes."Can you tell me that you love me? I really want to hear you say it now," I whispered, staring into her beautiful eyes which still looked blank."But I don't know who you are," she replied after thinking about it for a while, and I sighed.I ran a hand through my hair in frustration and broke away from holding her gaze with mine."You know me, that's why I also know you, but you've forgotten.""Okay?" she replied, and I facepalmed."You don't say 'okay,' you say what I told you to say!" I scolded, and she batted her lashes at me."I love you," she finally said, and my dim eyes lightened up."I forced you into saying it, I know, but do you mean what you said?" I asked curiously, and she didn't say anything."Never mind," I was about to say, but just then she nodded."Do you really mean it?" I asked further, and she nodded."Say it on your own," I requested, t
