Reunions?

I couldn't believe my eyes when I see the person lying on a very uncomfortable-looking mattress, holding still, his body unmoving, the only indication of him being alive is that he was breathing. tears of disbelief leaked out of my eyes as I keep watching the sleeping angel, not a single hair out of the way, just like a proclaimed dol.

"What happened to him? what did you do?" I asked the witch not taking my eyes off Alejandro, my breathing was raspy like I was racing a mile.

she sighs dramatically " I found him floating around in the river that also flows within the barrier, the water of the river is the only thing that can pass through it. he was in a bad shape when I found him, he hasn't been able to walk up," she explained, I glance at her not believing a single word.

I walk forward inside the room but stop to look at Craig, " if she tries anything, kill her" I don't look back while walking toward my unconscious mate. every step I take towards him is like walking a mile, my feet never felt this heavy before this was hardly believable. my heart beats faster than a bullet train, and my hands tremble when I raise them to touch his delightful face. the soft touch ignited flames that were hardly there. I had lost hopes that I would ever be able to feel the sparks ever again.

I kneel in front of his mattresses, holding out my hand to cherish his face, the familiar sparks burst into my skin, shocking my dead nerves awake. a tear slip my eyes when reality hit me hard, he is alive, and he is right here.

"Hi, baby, it's me your Lorenzo " I whispered sweetly moving my face closer to his, his face has matured into his adult life. I can't believe he could get more handsome than he was before, but alas he is. "baby, please open your eyes, come back to me," I plead to him breaking into a sob, I placed a soft kiss on his still lips and stood up turning to face the witch.

"What the hell did you do to him?" I scream furiously, my claws breaking out of my hands. I stride towards the witch and wrap my hand around her throat slamming her on the wall, and growled fiercely losing my patients with her.

She chokes in my hold clawing my hand with her sharp nails, but no use because I tighten my grip further, her face turned red as the oxygen cut off from her system, "I didn't... didn't do anything, this is how I found him," I throw her in the ground growling, she coughed trying to regain her breathing, one moment she was wheezing on the ground and the next moment she disappeared into thin air.

I growled as the other members of my pack run to us, "find her," Josh led the group to look for the witch.

I pace around the room, helplessly not knowing what to do in this kind of situation, I pulled at my hair trying to come up with something. I turn to Craig who was being trapped by Sorin, "Craig, do you have any spell that could wake him up from this coma," I ask him hoping he has what it takes.

he pushed past Sorin and stood next to me, standing over Alejandro while looking at him intensely, he hovered the palm of his hand over his chest and closed his eyes, fog emerged out of his palm and entered into Alejandro's chest, he chanted some spells over and over for a couple of minutes but he shagged away, he fell on the ground losing his footing, he looked drained of his powers.

"He is too weak to wake up, Alpha Lorenzo, his soul has returned to the deepest part of his brain, his heartbeat is slowing down every passing minute, I haven't seen anything like this before, there is nothing I can do, I'm sorry," he apologized sincerely, my heart broke not knowing how I'm going to deal with this.

"We should take him to the hospital, we need to move him from this cursed place," I order looking at Alejandro hopelessly. I could carry him because his condition was too dier to handle him carelessly, we arrange for a gurney and carry him out of the cabin as cautiously as possible.

We called an ambulance to take better care of his health because as Craig said, his condition was worsening second by second. I drove in the ambulance with him, holding his warm hand in mine, praying for a miracle. His being alive has given me new hope, and I was sure as hell wouldn't gonna let it happen ever again.

We drive to the airport, and with the help of a medical helicopter, we reached the castle directly. I see the King waiting for us at the helipad the wrinkle lines on his face deepened with worry. I sighed as the doctors and nurses carefully carry Alejandro out and to the infirmary.

I walk to the king and stand next to him "I'm sorry, I couldn't safely bring your son to you, I failed as an Alpha under you, punish me as you see fit," I bow in front of him, surrendering in front of him.

he pats my back pulling me to stand straight facing him, he smiles sadly at me " You have suffered enough my child, losing one's mate and getting them back only to see them in such a state as this, is the worst thing that can ever happen to one," he pats me one more time before following after the parade of doctors to the infirmary.

my feet stuck to the ground when the weight of his words drown me. he knew we were mates and somehow he had accepted our relationship, I smiled sadly knowing that he is the only parent who accepted two males as mates.

I walk to the infirmary watching the chaos as the doctors rush inside the ICU trying their best to make sure Alejandro's heart doesn't fail. they connected him to a life support machine and the beeping of his heart rate was slowing down. for the first time in a while my wolf felt agitated, he paces and growls seeing his mate in trouble.

they used Defibrillator to restart his heart when he flatlined, I clench my chest as my heart twisted in pain. after a while, the doctors come out of the room looking depressed "we have stabilized him as of right now, but he is too weak to carry on. I'm sorry my Kings," he bows his head before leaving.

The King walked inside the ICU, he stood next to his son's bed and cherished his head with love, "My strong and brave Son, I'm so proud of you," he kissed his head, he sat next to him for about two hours, he had to return to his room because he too is in a critical condition the cancer was taking it's a toll on him.

I take my time closing the distance between us, I sat on the stool next to his bed, holding his hand in mine, I kiss the back of his hand holding it closer to my cheeks, there was a skip in his heartbeat which was caught in the heart monitor. I watch my mate, wide eyes as a thought crossed my mind.

I look at our joined hands and the heart monitor, the sparks that flew between us were helping him beat his sickness. I move closer to his face, I kiss his pale lips, I move my lips with him but there was hardly any reaction out of him.

"Alejandro, I love you and only want the best for you, and I will do anything to make sure you live, " I kissed him again, then slowly moved my lips down his neck, kissing his soft pale skin, finally I reach my goal.

I raise my head to see his face and whisper "this is the only solution I can think of," then lean down to his neck. "Hope you can forgive me for doing not doing it under different circumstances, I love you,"

I kissed the place where his shoulder and neck met, my fangs extended and pierced into his skin, blood rushed into my mouth, and his body jerked up as the beeps on his heart monitor skyrocketed. Doctors rushed inside the room and tried to pull me off of him, but I growled lowly my fangs still submerged in his skin. they back off letting me do my thing when the heart monitor stabilized.

I mix my saliva with his blood, marking him officially as my mate for life. I looked at the heart monitor and watch the lines slowly turn flat. the soul left my body when he flatlined.

I howled in pain standing up from the stool and smashing it on the wall. I growled in pain, rushing out of the room, I walked out and I kept punching the wall until my hands bled.

"Fucking Lorenzo, he was alright, he was alive, why the fuck did I have to mark him," I keep punching the wall feeling the cracks in my bone.

I cry falling, grieving for my mate, I shouldn't have done it, I shouldn't have taken that risk. I keep blaming myself for being overconfident and reckless with my mate's life. I faint with the blood loss weeping for my mate.

"Alpha Lorenzo, come you should see this," one of the nurses, I looked at her dizzy, my eyes were blurry but I nodded at her.

I let her lead me back to Alejandro's room and the scent hit me first and then I saw his face.

he was sitting on the bed, looking around in wonder, I couldn't hold myself back from rushing towards him, I pushed myself onto him, embracing him in a tight hug. the sparks intensified due to my mark, I smiled holding him closer to my body.

"thank God, you are ok, don't you ever do that to me ever again," I scold him moving my face to look at him. he looked surprised, I laughed happily at him and pulled him into a kiss.

his lips stilled when they met mine but I didn't care, feeling the warmth of his soft lips made butterflies dance in my stomach, and suddenly all that was gone. like everything vanished within a blink of the eye. gone like it was never there before.

he pushed me off of him, I fell from the bed, shocked to the core. he glared at me wiping his lips with disgust coating his face.

"who the hell do you think you are?" he growled his eyes turning black, I whimpered in pain lying on the ground holding my chest. I blacked out as the rejection hit me ten folds.

my worst nightmare was coming true and like anyone else I wasn't ready for it.
