After a couple of hours, the doctor returns. Her initial assessment was correct. ” Alpha. We can give her blood but
we've never had to do that with a werewolf before. | don’t know if she will accept it.”
| shake my head. “Let’s see what her body will do to heal her before we take those drastic measures.”

A week goes by, and my little mate hasn't opened her eyes. Dr. Phillips says that she is healing slowly. Having
I've barely left her side. I've had Dustin bringanything that needs my attention. I only allow him and Dr.
Phillips on this floor. | still haven't decided what to tell the pack, but until she wakes up, | don’t want anyone
disturbing her.
When Dr. Phillips arrives for her morning check, I leave to shower and change clothes. | mind link Dustin asking if
there is anything that needs my attention.
“What do you want us to do with Eli Gunnar?”
| haven't been back down to the dungeons since my mate arrived. | don’t want to leave her right now. Her
medical condition has been tenuous, and | wouldn't forgive myself if something happened while | was away from
her.
“Let him sit for now. | need to focus on her. Make sure he’s got enough food and water to stay alive, otherwise he
can wait.”
“Yes Alpha.” He doesn’t close the mind link, so | know there's something else.
“What is it, Dustin?
“I got more information on the vampire coven up north. The vampire prince and sof his top men escaped
the hunters. From what I've heard, he and his nest

mates took over a weaker coven and that he is gaining in power.”
He hesitates again and | growl at him through the link. “Get to the point.”
“The word is that they are looking for two women. One is described as pale with white hair. The bounty on her
safe return to the vampire prince is 5 million dollars.”
| stop mid-step. Five million dollars? For a werewolf? Vampires don’t even like. our taste. They don’t feed on us at

“Double the patrols. | want to know the instant anyone picks up a strange scent.” | think about it. “Have you ever
smelled a vampire before?” | ask my Beta.

“Did you happen to smell it on my mate when we found her?”
“No offense Alpha, you didn’t really let any of us get close enough to her, but I'll ask Xavier if he noticed
anything off about her scent before we got there.”
“Alert the patrol to be on the hunt for that scent. If they cacross it anywhere near our territory or the human
city, they are to inform you and | immediately.”
“Yes Alpha.”
The mind link closes, and | finish getting dressed, trying to figure out why a vampire would be so interested in
my mate. What is it about her? Cyran can feel that she has a wolf, so her taste should be repugnant to the
vampires.
My mind is filled with these thoughts as | return to her room, my nameless mate. Because I'm so deep in my
thoughts, it takesa moment to realize that her eyes are open and she’s staring atwide-eyed. As | watch,
the fear | see is replaced with a look of dread and resolve.
