104 Chapter One Hundred Four

Floating right before him, the girl that stirred up foreign emotions in the heart of the Royal, bloodied and completely unaware of her surroundings. She mumbled incoherently... words like ‘I almost had him... He was right there... I lost... I could have ended all this... He shouldn’t have been there... Why did it have to end like that? I’ll kill him...’

She repeated some and growled out others, rage coming off her in waves. Her wolf didn’t dare to come closer for the girl’s mental state completely clashed with that of the wolf. “It’s hard being in the same mind when she keeps going on and on about how she should have done that or could have done this or shouldn’t have been this blind...” the wolf explained from her position away from the floating hunter.

“Hey, Katie,” Cole called out. The mumbling instantly seized, pleasing him. She didn’t open her eyes, something that he needed to get her to do. He held her hand and she held onto him just like she had back in the hospital. Her emotions shifted from rage to regret and shame, “Katie, come back to us...”

There was silence for a while, her body going still, “What...” her voice boomed, coming from all directions.

“Come back to us...”

“But... But I haven’t finished my mission yet,” she spoke back, starting to sound confused.

“What might that mission be?” Cole asked her.

“Killing the Rogue King,” under normal circumstances, the Royal would have asked himself why she had that as one of his thoughts. But with the condition she was currently in, nothing else mattered to him.

“You can kill him another day. I’ll help you do that, but we need you home... Who am I kidding? I need you home. I don’t think I’d live without you,” he said.

“Why do you sound like you’re crying, Cole? I like listening to your laugh,” she said to him..

“Well, it’s because you are dying,” he revealed, “You got shot with four arrows...”

“Oh, that happened... I remember...” he stopped him, switching back to her emotions of rage.

“Well, for once Katie, abandon your mission and come back to me,” he called out to her, knowing full well he was asking her to do the hardest thing in the book.

“Cole... I...”

“Katie,” he stopped her once more, “Listen to me. You can’t always charge in straight into danger. That’s not how you’ll succeed in ending this war. Most of the people that rushed to your rescue are confident that you will be the one to end him, but you can’t do that if you’re dead. Do you have any idea what it felt like to be unable to do anything about it?”

Slowly, the girl’s eyes began to open. He could feel her returning to him and soon enough he was also expelled from her mind. Light came crashing back to his eyes once he was out. His attention was completely taken by the girl, the audience that watched seemingly invisible. Katie’s fading heartbeat rose and the girl took in a deep breath before finally settling into a normal sleep.

“What in the world?” the doctor couldn’t stop himself from talking when he saw what should have been invisible. This was the same reaction that the rest of the occupants in the room had even though they did not speak.

‘Thank you,’ the voice of the wolf came to him through the mind link. He stood to leave only to be held by the hand tightening its grip around his. Katie twisted uncomfortably in her sleep prompting the Royal to sit back down and tuck the stray hairs on her head behind her ear. The girl relaxed at his touch, leaning into his palm and finally settling again.

“You might want to stay by her side until she wakes up,” Martha spoke to him, chuckling at the two mates, “Thank you, Cole Lycaon. You saved my daughter.”

“I don’t think I would have gone on without her around. I had to do something,” Cole replied sheepishly.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen you care so much in your life, Cole,” Drake chuckled, seeking the much desired effect of turning his fellow Royal’s face red.

“Oh, come on, Drake. Can you be any more childish? That was the sweetest act of passion I’ve been graced to see in my lifetime,” Martha defended Cole.

“Yeah, I must say. Quality maturity right there. You might just make the right man for my little daughter just yet,” Davin spoke, laughing boisterously while he said so.

“The apple doesn’t fall so far from the tree,” Jason groaned. Cole was surprised to see that he was in the room as well... “We were let in when we said we were part of the family from the side of the groom,” he added with a goofy smile noticing Cole’s confusion. The jokestar added a thumbs up even after he’d just followed Drake’s lead in embarrassing Cole.

“You’re all evil,” Cole narrowed his eyes at the three adding to their chorus of laughter. The females in the room (Sandra, Martha, Lina and Marie) shook their heads in disappointment.

“Boys will be boys,” Marie sighed, “How is she? Did you get to talk to her?”

“Yes, I did. She was still stuck in a trance from the fight in the forest. I couldn’t make out her words on them though. I guess we’ll have to ask her when she wakes up,” Cole replied.

“Yeah, I guess so... I don’t like that wait, but I guess we’ll have to wait nonetheless,” she sighed. Everyone silently agreed with her. The doctor suddenly started moving, checking all sorts of vitals and monitors. He checked her pulse then went on to check her temperature all in rush.

“What’s the problem, doctor?” Cole asked.

“Those heartbeats... they are spiking a little higher than normal. At first, I was sure it was because she’d only just stabilised, but now I’m sure there is another reason for that,” he said to them.

Cole tried to get up and let them work only to get held back by Katie. The girl shifted uncomfortably again. “No, Cole, stay where you are. Whatever you did helped her. You seem to be acting as an anchor of hope for her, something that she needs if she’s to make a full recovery,” he said.

Two nurses came to aid the doctor, switching the now empty drip with another one and preparing everything he might have needed. “Her temperature is rising. Could she be going into shock?” he tried, but the monitor didn’t suggest anything erratic. While he was just about to take his hand off her forehead, he noticed something beneath the bandages that covered her shoulders and thighs.

“Nurse, help me take off the bandages,” he asked his helpers referring to them in general. They got to work removing the bandages, tension building in the room while they did. Upon removing the bandages, the girl breathed in deeply as though she was only being released from suffocating restraints. Cole, along with the others watched as the wounds closed up and the black veins of wolfsbane disappear almost instantly. Soon enough all that was left was the star-shaped scars from the wounds.

The colour returned to her face and her body began to return to its former radiance. Silence took over the whole room as they all tried to interpret what they had all just witnessed, “Is it supposed to be that fast?” Marie asked the wolves in the room.

“No, it’s not...” the doctor replied, reaching for the canular in her arm and drawing a sample of blood. He held the syringe to a sample of blood that he’d collected earlier. The difference between the two was a slight tinge of purple, “How is this even possible? It takes time for this much wolfsbane to be expelled from the body.

After running a couple of tests on the sample of blood, the doctor began taking the needles that were in the girl, smirking as he watched the pricks close up immediately the needles out. “Cole, your father spoke of this once before,” Davin said.

“Huh, what did my father say?” Cole asked, breaking his focus on his mate for what must have been the first time in a few hours.

“He said you would heal at a rate faster than anything he’d ever seen,” the man said, trying to recall the words of his comrade.

“I don’t recall anything of the sort,” Cole answered.

“Have you ever observed your healing speed?” Lina asked him, trying to get to a faster answer.

“Oh, I don’t recall being injured...” Cole chuckled sheepishly.

“Oh, that’s not right. Not even once... Come on, what about the time you had your ass handed to you by my broth...”

“Language, Lina,” Martha interrupted.

“Sorry mother,” she groaned.

“I didn’t get injured during that time either. Are you forgetting that I won that time?” Cole said, trying to think back to the Royal games.

“Hmm, now that I remember it. I don’t remember seeing you covered in any bruises after that fight. Though I do remember giving you some while we were fighting... It’s terrifying to think...” the man paused when he heard the soft groan of his little sister. Katie was stirring.

“At this rate, she’ll make an extraordinarily fast recovery. From what I’ve just seen, she would have healed on the battlefield had she not fallen into that state of unconsciousness and blocked her healing properties,” the doctor explained. Katie’s eyes fluttered open slowly, allowing everyone in the room to see the bright blue gleam of a royal’s iris... Her consciousness came along with a burst of an aura strong enough to silence everyone in the room.

The delicate qualities were fast fading the more she became aware of her surroundings and took control of her body. ‘I guess the Rogue killer is awake...’ the thought rumbled through the hospital building... and everyone knew it...
