Mason We got to the Eclipse hospital, and doctor Tamar took charge immediately. I was angry, scared and nervous. I knew this silver upgrade wasn't a good thing, but Isabella did not think it was important to attend to it. I don't hit women, but this doctor might be my first. Marcus was distraught. Michael hung around, and I wondered what he was still doing there. I suspected the whole issue with Ingrid might have got Gwen worked up to the point that it drained her completely. I wanted to chase him away, but I knew Gwen would give me an earful for it. He was her bestie, after all. If he were my Beta, I wouldn't let him close to her. Michael's actions had hurt Gwen even though she wasn't showing it. He selfishly put us in a bad position. I wasn't mad about him screwing the bitch, but he did not have to claim her. She had no wolf for him to bond with. The claim was unnecessary. Now here we were in the hospital. I watched him pick up his phone and walk away from us. I waited impatiently f
Mason We waited for another hour before Delan and doctor Isabelle arrived. I was so mad at the woman that I almost attacked her. "How is my daughter," Delan asked with puffy eyes, and Marcus told him all that we knew and where we were. I watched the bitch doctor, and I was mad. "We know you gave her an addictive drug. Why would you do that without telling us? I am placing you under arrest!" I said. Marcus held my arm and shook his head. He linked me to be calm down. "Anger would not solve the matter at hand," Delan said, and I looked at Isabelle. "Start talking bitch. It will take more than Marcus and Delan to hold me down when I go off on you," I said, and she shook. I had used compulsion on her because I wanted the whole truth. The bitch might be in league with the humans. That lab we found looked like a place where Willow's scientists would be working at. Everyone knew Willow for its chemicals. They could never be trusted. We were led to Tamar's office. It was best she confess
Gwen I woke up feeling better. From the smell of my surrounding, I knew I was in the hospital. Everywhere was a blur for a few seconds, and then the blur cleared up. To my surprise, my father was holding my hands, and I wondered if they had taken me back to the Willow Pack. "Are you alright, honey?" my father asked. He had puffy eyes, and I could tell he had been in tears. I opened my mouth to speak, but my throat was a bit dry. "Water, get her some water," My father said quickly, and to my surprise, Isabelle placed a cup against my lips and tilted it so I could take a sip. Once I was done, she placed her hand on my forehead. "How are you feeling?" She asked, "Good, I guess," I said, and she smiled. She too had been crying. I tried to sit up, and my father helped me. What was with the tears? Had I died and come back. "Mace, Marcus?" I asked for my mates. "They went home to check on the triplets. They should be on their way back now, "My father said, and I nodded. "How long was
Marcus We returned to the hospital and received amazing news. Gwen did not just wake up, but she had regained her legs. I was so happy. We had to sign her up with an orthopaedic doctor who promised to have her legs walking and running in less than a month. Mason said he would hold him to his words. Things were looking up for us. Mason and I invested in doctor Isabelle's research, and we hoped she could come up with a permanent solution soon because the four-four hour thing was not a way to live the rest of her life. They had taken blood samples from Gwen to see how her new DNA might affect her future babies. We wanted to be sure the children would not be dependent on Isabelle's drugs. We returned home with Gwen in the morning, and Delan and Isabelle returned to Willows. Ginger had called a million times. Those two were inseparable. I wondered if we were the same way with Gwen. "You know Doctor Isabelle Has a crush on Gwen," Mason said, and I looked at him and Gwen, who looked a
Marcus Keith's information was surprising. It had been months of no word from the other side. The common centre had quieted the riots, but I should have suspected something was off when people tried to sneak into our territory times without number. The rate went high pretty recently, and we all believed it to be due to the fact that wolves could not bear separation from their loved ones. If something was happening, then it was understandable why. I decided to inform Mason and Gwen of the development. We had an issue that we were dealing with. Gwen had to cut her human nails often because they contained silver and she didn't want to hurt our children when playing with them. It didn't burn them, but Gwen was just being cautious. Other than the silver upgrade, everything was normal at our end. I stood up and told Keith to find Scott and make himself comfortable before we head out, but he told me he was hanging out with Michael instead. I excused myself from the office and headed to
Marcus Lucius stood up to give his respect the moment he saw us. He wasn't happy to see Mason, though, but he did not voice it. Everyone knew we were a package deal. I guess Lucius did not get the memo. We were offered a place to seat, and a waiter came to take our order. We ordered coffee. "Their Pizza sucks here," Lucius said. "And whose fault is that?" Mason asked him almost laughing. I could tell my friend was really holding himself. I did not know why they brought up Pizza because no one ordered it, but the two of them seemed to understand why, which made me figure it was either a private joke or jab. Whichever it was, Lucius seemed to be at the receiving end. "So why the S.O.S?" I asked Lucius, and he cleared his throat and leaned forward to whisper, which was unnecessary because Mason owned the place, but I allowed it. "You guys were right. We shouldn't have trusted Derin," he said, tears welling up in his eyes. "The guy is a mad man." He said, but he had not divul
Mason I knew it was going to come to this. I couldn't tell Lucius that I warned him, but the fact remains that I did. This whole thing just messed up my plans. Gwen, Marcus and I had settled into our new norm, and it seemed like it would take ages for the humans to strike, but we were wrong. As much as we couldn't admit it in the presence of Lucius, we knew they targeted the attacks against us. After finding that lab, Marcus, Gwen and I knew we were the ones that the human government were interested in and maybe Willow because of the monkshood. That plant had brought a lot of ill-fortune to the wolf community. Just like Simone, it was a gift that kept giving. We returned home and did not know where to begin. We had a meeting at the coffee table. There were a lot of decisions that needed to be made, and we had little or no time to make them. "What do you propose," I asked Marcus, who chose that moment to let Gwen sit on his lap. "We have no choice but to join the fight," Marcus
Marcus. It was time to visit Willow's pack for the antidote. It was an important place. We needed everyone to be in the bunker, and we needed Monkshood seeds to remain hidden and out of sight. I could not believe we were at it again, but it was part of our job as Alphas. We drove to Willows with me behind the wheels this time. Gwen slept most of the time at the back, and I couldn't help but glance at her through the rearview mirror. Lately, she had been sleeping a lot, and I kept my observations to myself. Delan was waiting for us, and so were Ginger and her children. The triplets were not happy that we did not become with their friends. It was a tough decision to make. Where Gwen felt we should take them to her father, Mason and I decided it was best they were hidden just in case Willow falls. We honestly did not know the plan of the humans. The battle at the Green Pack could be a decoy and a way to distract us from the main battle, and that was why Mason and I would remain at Wil
