Chapter 18


    ~Tia~


    Every inch of my body is in pain. I try to move, but the pain is too much. I can hear beeping around me.


    I crack my eyes open a bit, but all I see is white. I wonder if I’m dead. I try to focus on my surroundings


    to get an idea of where I am. The first thing I notice is the sparks on both of my hands. I take a deep


    breath, and I can smell the peppermint, lemon, and grapefruit. My mates are here, wherever here is.


    I move a bit, trying to squeeze my hands. I can’t speak with this tub down my throat, but I want the


    twins to know that I’m awake. I move my fingers around to elicit a response. Lincoln groans and moves


    his head, but he stays asleep. Landon shoots right up and looks around the room beforending his


    eyes on me.


    “You’re awake, love! Let me get a doctor.” Landon kisses me on my forehead before opening the door


    to see a doctor. I don’t try to move anymore or try to think about how I ended up here, wherever here is.


    In no time, Landones back with a doctor who checks my vitals. He asks how I’m feeling, but I am


    still not really able to respond. The doctor seems as if he understands and takes Landon outside to


    talk. Lincoln still does not stir, which amuses me a bit. He sleeps so hard; it’s cute. I try to stay alert for


    when Landones back, but the darkness is too inviting. I can’t help but submit to it.


    ~Landon~


    “How is she doctor?”


    “Well, the fact that she woke up is a great thing. We need to do a few more tests, but it can wait a few


    hours. I want to make sure there is nosting damage and take an image of her brain. I think she will


    get better once her wolfes back. With you two at her side, her recovery will be that much faster.” I


    nod and walk back into the room. Lincoln is still asleep at Tia’s side, and Tia is passed out. I know she


    will probably sleep a lot since her body is trying to recuperate.


    I sit back in my chair and run my fingers down Tia’s face. She moans quietly but stays asleep. She is


    so beautiful, and we came so close to losing her. I can’t imagine being without her, even though we just


    found her to be our mate. I know it’s hard to believe the sincerity of my words, but they are real as I am.


    I have always had an interest in Tia, I just never voiced it, and that’s my shoring. I should have


    been bolder and had more courage. Instead, I let my fears ovee me and didn’t speak about my


    feelings for Tia. The Moon Goddess has given me a second chance, and I don’t n to throw it away.


    My thoughts are interrupted by my phone vibrating in my pocket. I pull it out and notice it’s my dad.


    “What’s up dad?”


    “Hey. I just wanted to make sure you two are okay. I was wondering what happened when you two


    were here……why were you even here?” I sigh and rub my forehead. I get up and head out of the


    room.

    “A lot has happened snce we left yesterday. Right now we are at the Moonlight Pack.”


    “What are you two doing there?”


    “It’s Tia.” Iunch into the story about us finding Tia hurt and dying. I also tell him about the phone call


    that got us to rush back home and what happened with mom while at home. Dad listened quietly until I


    was finished.


    “Son, that is a lot to unpack. I can’t say that your mom did or didn’t have a hand in the call to get you


    back home, but it was definitely a plot. I will look into things on my end and see what I can find out. We


    need to figure out who called you in the first ce.” Dad sighs. “How is Tia?”


    “She woke up for a bit earlier. The doctor says she is healing well, but it will be better once her wolf


    gets back.” I can feel myself get choked up. “We…..we almost lost her dad. I can’t imagine what we


    would have done if she hadn’t made it. We need to get her home, but I’m not sure how that will go.”


    “Your biggest issues will be your mom and her family. You and your brother will be Alphas soon, and


    you will be able to control how things go. In the meantime, I’m in your corner, and I will do all I can to


    make sure that Tia is happy andfortable. Bring her home, son……everything will be okay.” I hang


    up the phone and take a minute, looking into the door’s window. Tia is sleeping peacefully, and Lincoln


    still has not woken up. That is my family in there; my brother and my mate. I have to do anything and


    everything to make sure we are happy and stay safe.
