As my awe faded, panic started to set in. She is okay, right? She has to be okay... but releasing that much power can't be good for her. The fact that she was even holding it all in couldn't have been healthy. I ignored the dozens of confused and panicked wolves who were outside. They had probably witnessed the sudden weather switch. They also couldn't have missed the blast of power. "Jason, you and Micah are on calming the pack members," I mindlinked him as I entered the clinic. My sole focus was my mate, but that didn't mean that I was about to abandon my pack when they were clearly in a panic. "On it," they both respond, right before I shut the link with them. "Get the doctor on call," I commanded one of the nurses. "Yes, Alpha," she bowed and then led him to a room before rushing out to get a doctor. Gently, I laid Sadie on the bed and then took the seat next to the bed. I hold her hand, feeling the softness of it. The bond sparks to lifefilling with warmth. I've never held her hands, and now that I have, I don't feel like ever letting go. The door opens, pens and Doctor John walk in, and bow before asking. "What seems to be the problem, Alpha?" "She fainted," I muttered, not taking my eyes from her face. He walks further into the room, then takes off the stethoscope from around his neck. He examines her. All the while, my heart is in my throat. After a couple of minutes, he steps back and turns to me. "You don't have to worry. There is nothing wrong with her. She just seems exhausted." "Are you sure?" "Positive," he replied. "Try not to wake her up. Ally does need the rest." I nod my head. After another bow, he leaves the room. I'm left with a suffocating silence. My thumb caresses her hand before placing a kiss on the back of her hand. I needed skin contact. I craved it with everything that I was. "We were idiots, don't you think?" For the first time since I shifted, Knox's voice was soft, and it lacked its usual arrogance and self-assurance. I never thought that my mate would bring my knees, but here I was. I would crawl on the ground if it meant she'd give second chance. A chance to prove just how much I want her. "We were blind," I muttered, my heart heavy. "We had this idea of what our mate should be. When Sadie didn't tick all the boxes, we dismissed her. We should have realized that something was wrong sooner. Maybe then we wouldn't be where we are now." I get closer and trail my finger down her cheek. They are so soft, and for a moment, I was tempted to peck her. The scar catches my attention like it always does. I marked her, thinking I her, 65 Punishing her, but now it has become a burden to bear. It has become a symbol of my guilt. Right there and then, I vow to be the one to protect her instead of the one to hurt her vowed to be what she needed because she was what I wanted and needed. I wanted it all. I wanted my mate and my daughter with me. I wanted the soft kisses and little touches. Wanted a future with her where we would grow old together and have a bunch of mini us. The more I thought about it, the more convinced I was. It wasn't about her powers. It wasn't about what she could help my pack with. It was about her. I wanted her love. I wanted her to look like she used to. Like I'd hung the moon. I want her to love me like before because I think I am falling in love with her.
