"Why isn't he awake yet?" Maddie asked in worry. My grip tightened on my mate's hand as I stared at his face and listened to their conversation.

"The bullet was close to his heart Madeline and was also coated in wolfsbane. He's lucky to even be alive right now" Dr. Blake frowned sympathetically.

My eyes fluttered shut in exhaustion causing me to use my free hand to rub them.
I was low on energy as I used my healing as best I could on Noah. I healed the extra wounds caused from the surgery but there was still some wolfsbane in his system that Dr. Blake was unable to retrieve. And my powers couldn't rid his body of the wolfsbane because it's toxic to all wolves so my powers practically just bounced off it, in a way, having no effect.

Dr. Blake excused himself and Maddie walked over towards me.

"How are you doing dear?" She asked as she rested a comforting hand on my shoulder. I sighed heavily and turned my head to face her.
"Honestly?" I paused then she nodded her head, "I feel like I'm missing a part of myself. I can hardly eat or sleep anymore because I'm so consumed with worry that he mightn't wake up"

My eyes watered as I looked back at my mate and I felt Maddie's arms wrap around my shoulders. I cried silently as my mate's mother comforted me.
"I'll get you some food dear" she said before smiling and leaving the room.

"Please wake up Noah" I mumbled as I pressed a kiss onto the back of his hand that I was still gripping onto, "you can't leave us. Everyone is so distraught without you. The pack, your parents, me" I paused and choked out a sob.

Tears cascaded down my face and I reached up to touch his face with my free hand.
"I can't loose you Noah. I can't. I love you so much and I don't know how I'd cope without you."

I heard a knock on the door and I quickly wiped my eyes then told the person to come in.

"Hey Lily" Zander greeted then Hazel, Marie and Cain entered behind him.
"Hey guys" I smiled weakly at them as they stood on the opposite side of the bed.

"How's he doing?" Hazel asked with sympathy in her eyes.
"Still no signs of waking up but he's stable" I shrugged the looked over at Cain and smiled, "it's nice to see you again"

"You too Lily" he smiled.

Since the attack, the rogues had run off while a few stayed and requested to join the pack. Then as for Cain and Marie being mates, well they seem to be getting along well. I've noticed a change in Cain and his face lights up whenever Marie enters the room.
She was hesitant at first because of who he was and how they had met during an attack that he began. But after I had a talk with her to reassure her, she was slowly beginning to trust him.

The door opened again and Madeline walked in holding a plate. She smiled at the others then handed me the plate.
It was simple breakfast foods, bacon, toast and eggs. But as the smell made its way up my nose, I felt a familiar liquid rise up my throat.

I quickly stood up and ran to the bathroom then began vomiting into the toilet. Frantic footsteps followed after me and I felt my hair being held back. When I was done, I sat back and leaned against the cabinet behind me.

I looked up and saw Maddie frowning at me.
"I'm fine Maddie" I tried to reassure her but she shook her head and left the bathroom.
No less then two minutes later she came back with Dr. Blake.

"Come with me Luna" he smiled as he helped me stand and began leading me out of the room.
"No I can't leave him" I mumbled tiredly as I pulled away from his grip.

"We need to give you a check up Luna" Dr. Blake sighed.
"Well you can give me one here because I'm not leaving him" I replied stubbornly.

He smiled at my stubbornness and left the room before coming back with a small bag.
"Could you guys give us some privacy please?" He asked the others in the room. They nodded and quickly left.

Dr. Blake laid his bag at the end of Noah's bed before taking out a needle. He gently grabbed my wrist and turned my arm so he could take some blood.

"I'll have this tested but I have an idea of what may be wrong" he smiled before handing my blood sample to a nurse. She left and he turned back to me.

"What's your idea?" I asked sceptically.
"I can't be certain Luna" he shrugged before unwrapping his stethoscope from around his neck. He put the ends in his ears and placed the circle thingy on my chest.

"Deep breath" he ordered and I complied. He moved to stand behind me and placed it on my back before ordering me to do the same.

After a few other tests, he packed up his things and turned around to look at me again.
"Everything is perfectly fine Luna and the test results should be done in a few hours. I'll let you know the results when they're finished."

"Thanks Dr. Blake" I nodded then he left.

I sighed tiredly and faced my mate again. I rested my palm on his cheek then gently rubbed his eyebrow with my thumb.
I sat down after placing a kiss on Noah's forehead and took his hand in mine again.

"I love you" I mumbled before resting my head on our joint hands and closing my eyes, falling into a dreamless sleep.

. . .

I was woken up by a loud, rapid beeping. My head snapped up and I noticed Noah's heart monitor was going crazy.

Dr. Blake rushed into the room with nurses following closely behind him. I immediately jumped from my seat and moved away from them as they moved quickly around Noah's bed.
I watched with wide eyes as Dr. Blake shot out orders to the nurses who complied without hesitation.

I felt a hand grab my shoulder, making me jump in shock. I turned to face Cain who looked at me with worry.
"Come on Lily. Let them do their jobs" he said softly as he tried guiding me out of the room.
"No! I'm not leaving him" I spoke as I shrugged off his hand.

"Lil-" he began but stopped as the frantic beeping became a single, consistent beep.

"No!" I cried, "No Noah. Please no. Noah don't leave me please"

I collapsed to the floor and screamed in agony as I felt my heart tightened in my chest. A set of arms picked me up and carried me out of the room. I struggled relentlessly and screamed my mate's name.

"No! Please don't leave" I sobbed. I continued pushing Cain's arms away until he finally put me on the floor. He wrapped his arms around me so I couldn't run off and pulled me into his chest.

I cried and screamed into his chest.

"No. Please no" I sobbed as I fell to my knees. Cain followed and pulled me into him, running his hands through my hair soothingly.

He continued trying to sooth me until I felt my eyes droop and I fell unconscious.
