She asked, patting Venus's cheek in a motherly way."I'm good Elsa thank you," Venus said smiling."Well darling go freshen up and get ready, I've cooked breakfast for you, come down then before it gets cold," Elsa said."Wheres Dante?"

"Attach the oxygen mask,""Install two drip bags," "Heart beat monitor fluctuating,""Luna stay with us,"A rush of voices heard but a muscle not moved, she lay still on the hospital bed once again, wanting to blink and move but her body didn't allow it.Her wolf was back, she felt it.Her memories were back too and she felt as if she was floating amongst its abyss, her body numb and cold. Yet something- someone was calling out to her.Her mates lycan was beckoning her to regain consciousness, to come back to her and she heard the call like a siren, mustering up all of her energy she twitched her eyes, her body wanted to shut down but her wolf was pushing through, needing her mate."Dante," she spoke but her voice came out hoarse.In a flash her hand was encompassed in a large rough one, sparks ignited and she heard the fast beeping of a monitor, her heart beat.It was as if someone was giving her strength.Her wolf was out with the touch of her mate.Dante watched Venus's body twitc

"It would be better if sophia and Knox talk about this alone," Dante said, his eyes giving a knowing look to Knox whose jaw was ticking all the while as he stared at his mate who was wringing her fingers together out of nervousness, not looking up at him."N-no, I don't wanna talk to him alone, had he been civil he would have sorted everything out with me then, he took it to this level, if he has something to say he can say it right now," Sophia said, trying to look brave but she silently shook under her mates penetrating gaze, as he gave her a 'we shouldn't do this here' look."Sophia, baby it'll be better if we talk about this alone," Knox stated, this time speaking gently, his grey eyes now assuring, but Sophia stubborn as always refused her mate's request and looked the other way."You wanna know why I did what I did?"
