...Kenji POV...Wynter had been with Darius for a few hours already. I had gone back to her room and begun pacing, desperately trying to figure out what to do next. I didn't want to give up on Wynter, just like the doctor seemed to have done. A thought came to mind, mind it be a desperate one, but at this point, we didn't have any other option. I ran out into the hallway, looking for the doctor from earlier. It didn't take long for me to find him. He was standing in front of the nurses' desk, reading over a report from one of his patients."Where're Wynter's parents?" I ask him, getting straight to the point."Rooms 605 and 706. Why?" He asks."I think they may just be the key to fixing this.""But they're not even her real parents." The doctor begins, making me spin on my heel to look at him."Does that really matter? They may not be her birth parents, but they are the only parents she's ever been given the chance to know. If anyone can help her right now, they can.""Are you sure a

I continued to stare at the door in complete shock. My mind had yet to catch up with the circumstances. I was rendered speechless as I attempted to fathom what I'd just witnessed. My mind had to be playing tricks on me. How else could I explain what happened? There wasn't an explanation."Dude!"I feel someone shake me, only to realize that I'd been left staring at the door, and had temporarily forgotten everyone else standing around me.I turn to look at an annoyed Hunter, who seems to be seconds away from slapping me. As if on cue, I watch his hand raise, and come towards my face. I quickly reach up, grabbing his wrist in the process, preventing him from making contact."About time." Hunter remarks."I almost got a hit on you." Hunter says, feigning a laugh."Only in your dreams. You haven't been successful with landing a hit on me yet." I remark, shrugging my shoulders; earning me a grimace and an eye roll from Hunter."That's only because it's not right to hit your elders." Hunter

...Wynter POV...I was absolutely terrified. I didn't know what to do. I was already an emotional wreck, and that was before that man had entered the room. I hated knowing that Darius' fate was on my shoulders, and my shoulders alone. Wasn't there anyone else that could do this? Couldn't the vampire from earlier do this instead? He would probably have much better experience than me. I knew we didn't have time for delays, so I went to Darius. The doubts in my mind continued to grow wild, as I looked at the open wound in his chest. Praying for the familiar rhythm of his heart to come back. I was psyching myself out, and I was well aware of that. I took a deep breath, and focused on what was important. I closed my eyes, concentrating on my vampiric side. I felt my canines elongate further than they ever had before. They changed from their sharp form to razor-like needles. I ran my tongue along them, and was surprised by how sharp they'd become. I bent lower, closer to his heart. The s

When I wake up, I feel dizzy and light-headed. A feeling of warmth and comfort washes over me, but I don't know why. I can't remember a thing. Where am I? What happened?I feel like I've not only been hit by a truck. But I also feel as though I've been run over by a steam roller. I can't manage to move a muscle. I don't understand what's going on. Why can't I move?I try to open my eyes, but find the task too difficult, so decide to just relax. A comforting beating rings in my ears. I don't know why the rhythm sounds so beautiful. But I find myself entranced by it. Almost as if it's gently rocking me back to sleep.Unable to move, I decide to allow myself a chance to rest.I don't know how long I had fallen asleep. But when I woke up, memories of the previous events begin to cloud my mind. Until I suddenly Darius.My eyes burst open, as I look for Darius. Which is when I see I'm laying on Darius. My hand softly grazing his chest. His chest is so smooth. I run my hand over his heart, a

We quickly got changed and headed towards Darius' office. Kenji hadn't actually told us where to go, but Darius figured that Kenji was waiting for him in his office. Darius' office was big, and could easily entertain a dozen people comfortably.I'm not sure why but once we made it to Darius' office door, I felt a strange feeling of uneasiness. "What's wrong?" Darius asks, spinning me around to look at him."What makes you think something's wrong?""I can feel it. You've only just been up for a short while, so may not have noticed the difference, but ever since you turned me, I've been much more in tune with your feelings. I know what you're feeling, and in this case perhaps better than you do.""You mean, you feel that as well."Darius nods his head with a slight smile. Raising his hand to cup my cheek, softly stroking my cheek with his thumb."Mhmm. I feel everything. So I'll ask again. What's wrong?"I look away, not sure how to process this. I feel uneasy, and yet at the same time

...Darius POV..."I believe introductions are in order." Kenji says, once again commanding the room. Even though I may be Alpha, I have no intention of running today's meeting. Today is not about ranks or titles, but rather a time to be with my mate. I don't know what we're about to learn, but I have a deep-seated urge to be with my mate. I don't know why, only that I feel as though she will need me to be there for her. Something tells me that she's going to need me right now. So I'm more than happy to allow Kenji his moment to shine. "Kayden and Ayira, this is Callista and Maddox, Wynter's foster parents. Callista and Maddox, this is Kayden and Ayria. Alpha and Luna of Moon Stone Pack. Ayira is my sister." Kenji says, smiling at her."Everyone, this is Genesis, my mate." Kenji looks down at his mate sitting on the couch next to where he's standing. They both look at each other with a deep sense of love. It's truly wonderful seeing them so happy together. Kenji reaches a hand toward

...Wynter POV...My eyes went wide as I was overcome with such a strong emotion. I looked at Darius, who seemed to be deep in concentration. It was unbelievable. I was feeling an overwhelming sensation of love. Which is when I realized that I wasn't just feeling love, but the love he has towards me. I embraced the feeling, understanding for the first time how he truly felt about me. I know he had told me time and time again that he loved me and no one else. He made sure I knew that Catherine meant nothing to him. But at the same time, I couldn't stop myself from doubting our relationship. No mater how he tried to plcate me, I continued to wonder how his life would've been had he stayed with Catherine. But after hearing the Oracle say how Darius would've died, only made me more upset. I couldn't explain it. I know I should be happy, but for some reason, I just can't seem to be. Picturing Darius dying at the hands of the rogues, only caused flashbacks to when Xander ripped his heart ou

...Darius POV...I was quite possibly the happiest man on earth. The love of my life just said yes to marrying me. She may have already said yes to me once before. But I didn't think it really counted. The first time I hadn't planned on asking her, but I thought there was no better time to do it. I had just shown her how I truly felt about her. No other moment would ever be as special. Even though we were mates, I didn't know for certain if she was going to say yes or not. A proposal isn't ruly a proposal if there isn't a ring. Something I had kicked myself for not having at the time. But it was just so spur-of-the-moment, that I had even surprised myself. While this may not have been the ideal proposal, at least I had a ring for her. I know it would never make a difference to her, but I felt she deserved the best. I wanted to show her how special she was to me. I would make up for my sporadic proposal later this evening. When Wynter was in the hospital, I was continuously plagued by
