Adam POV


This rogue showing up and then Thorn shortly after was not a coincidence. Poor Athena was so distraught when I told her I had to go. I did not want to tell her it was because of Thorn showing up, but when I could see what was going through her mind, I had to tell her it was because of Thorn showing up. I had to tell her she did nothing wrong and that she was doing great so far as a mate. Now I felt like a piece of crap for making my mate feel bad. Athena honey your not a bad mate.


You've done nothing wrong, it's because of Thorn not you. I am so sorry if you have ever felt this way because of the way I have acted or something I have said. You have only been here a couple of nights I never want you to feel like this. Thorn came back for a second time again so I am going ask him to leave or he will be killed. I want you to stay here and be safe but I don't want you to be alone and would rather you visit your dad. My beta and gamma will be here soon.


I know this is rough and I wish things could be different for us especially since we are just starting out. I kissed her just before I left and I told her to go look in the closet, because her dad and I had a little surprise done for you. She Climbed all the way off the bed and walked away to the closet smiling after I kissed the top of her head. I left to go deal with Thorn, because he was being the biggest pain in my A**, and I had to put this to the end. I couldn't believe he had enough nerve to come back for a second time today. This guy is thick in the head.


Storming to the Front of the main house with an angry expression on his face as I got their, "Where the H*** is MY FIANCE AND HER DAD!" Shouted Thorn.


They are under my protection. You are not welcome on this property! "ATHENA WILL NEVER BE YOUR MATE! SHE IS MY MATE!" Shouted Shane at this point.


My eyes were now a dark Gray color rather than my beautiful brown with flakes of honey color in my eyes. I knew this because at this point I let my wolf Shane take over. I couldn't stand him. Next thing I knew Thorn had shifted midair as he lunged forward biting in to my arm. I quickly changed into my wolf Shane and before I had time to catch him he had already raked his teeth against my front leg making the blood trickle down my leg and sticking to my fur. She bit into his neck and he finally let me go pretty quickly.


He lunged forward again biting my front leg again so I bit him in the middle of his back making him quickly let go again. I tossed him a good several feet away from me and told him to get off my property or he would die. He ran off whimpering and I began licking my leg to help out the healing process. Just as I was shifting back to human form my Beta informed me Athena started bleeding on her left arm for no reason, and passed out. I ran as fast as I could. I ran to our room and saw where she had been, I knelt down to see the blood stain left in the carpet just at my bed room door.


I walked in and felt my heart tug. This was all my fault I should of known by our bond that it was different or stronger I should say. Poor thing was out. I called for the doctor to come look at us both. After wrapping both our wounds, giving us antibiotics, and having me sign papers she left. All I could do was lay their watching her that night, holding her close.


Her wound was slowly healing but it needed time. I dozed off watching after her with my arms wrapped around her waist. First thing in the morning the bright sun shined in my face, and when I looked down to see her their she looked pale and was limp. I immediately called my beta Joe and told him to get the doctor. Before I knew it their was a knock on my door. When I opened it their stood Dr. Prin and my Beta.


She came in evaluating Athena, next thing I knew She was being taken away, with bags of fluids, pints of blood. I knew it wasn't good, especially when they had me follow with them. After grabbing my shirt and shoes I ran down the hallway hopping as I chased after them while putting my shoes on. They got her into the back room just as I slipped on my shirt they came back out to me. I started to feel weak and that's when they saw my arm. "When did you get that mark?" asked Dr. Prin.


I got it yesterday in a fight why? She just looked at me and when she realized why both of our wounds were bad and not healing she took us into the back room at the hospital. Come to find out I had silver in my wounds, but that didn't explain hers. As soon as they cleaned the silver out of my wounds her wounds started to heal to. The doctors were amazed at how quickly she began to heal too. She was still pail, had a loss of blood and still needed medical attention.


Once they finally got her hooked up and moved to the ICU unit, she started to do a lot better. I opened up the blinds and let the sun shine through and it not only helped heal her more, but gave her an intense amount of strength, and energy. She still didn't move though. Her body lifeless and cold, but still nothing. We warmed up multiple blankets to help keep her body warm. Little by little her body started healing and she slowly started to move around and wake up. It was finally 8 pm when I came back into the room after having a brief shower, when she started to move around more.


Quickly getting dressed I went to find a nurse. When we came back she was opening her eyes more and began looking around. I rushed by her side holding her hand close to my chest. She could barley hug me tight, and she still didn't know what had happened yet. As if she weighed nothing I picked her up and sat her on my lap. She was so scared of what happened, she had no clue.


I could feel her whole body tremble as she sat in my lap with her head in my neck trying to calm down and catch her breath. After a few minutes she finally settled down and the nurse was able to get all her vitals. Finally everything was showing normally and she no longer needed blood given to her. It was still going to be a long process for healing but she would heal quicker once her wolf awoke again. No one could figure out how she still got wounded when I got injured. Doctors were able to save her this time but next time they had no idea.


That night I fell asleep holding her close and she fell asleep finding peace in my arms. When morning came I woke up and Athena was gone. I jumped off the bed not even thinking she was most likely in the shower. He heard her singing and was so happy to hear her singing. Even though in reality it had only been a couple of days, to him It felt like a century since he heard her voice.
