Chapter 51
In his arms, Xander lifted me into the car. I tried to assure him I was fine. I could walk, but he wouldn't listen to me. The bodyguards open the car door for us, but Xander still won't let me go. Still being held by him, he scoots into the back seat with me on his lap. I tried to sit next to him, but he was having none of it.
His eyes were black, and he was growling. Burying his nose where he marked me, he inhaled my scent. My eyes filled with tears; I had not realized in all my selfishness how this had affected Xander. I embraced him and wept with him. I promise I will never run again. Perhaps we can talk things out, but I won't run again. I promise to love and cherish you forever."
FROM XANTARA’S POINT OF VIEW
Back in the Elven hospital the doctor has a couple of magic eels wrapped around her wrists. The Eels send pulses of electric energy through her hands as she places them on Colt’s chest. “1-2-3 SHOCK.” Colt still isn’t moving; the doctor tries again. “1-2-3 SHOCK!”
I see Colt starting to move mumbling about playing with a unicorn. If the situation weren’t so dire, I would laugh. I run over and take his hand in mine. I am sorry I ran from you Colt, please forgive me. I whisper in his ears; I promise to give us a chance.
The elven doctors tells me to get naked and lay next to my mate. That it would speed up the healing.
“What? I never even told him my name or was properly introduced. Much less sleep with him naked?”
Elven Doctor -
“This is not about you or how much you know each other. It is about saving your mates life!”
Xantara -
“I am sorry you are right. Give me a moment I will get my clothes off and lay next to him. Colt please hold on, I am right here and I am not leaving you.”
Clair -
Suddenly I became extremely tired, I tried to keep my eyes open; I was unsuccessful. When I open my eyes, I am back in that beautiful land of white. I hear yelling and I look to where it is coming from.
I laugh. The moon goddess is yelling at my brother, telling him he needs to quit playing with his unicorn and wolf. He is whining he wants to stay and play with his unicorn; he is having both his unicorn and his wolf playing fetch. I walk up to my brother and slap him hard on the back of his head. “What do you think you are doing?” Do you realize in our world you are near death? So quit being selfish and get back to your life.”
Colt -
I love it here, no stress, no pressure. They want me to go back. “Clair, why would I want to go back. It is peaceful here and there aren’t wars and deception.?”
Clair -
"Why should you go back?" What do you mean by that? All my life, I wondered if you were dead. Everyone had a twin, but mine was missing. Being alive knowing you chose to die is so much more painful for me. Staying here means you will choose to die.
"Moon Goddess, please let him feel the pain of his mate. Then he will know how beloved he really is."
Watching Selene walk over to my brother, she places both of her hands on his forehead. After a smile, he sheds a tear, showing that he now feels her pain and worry. My brother was standing there with the moon goddess one moment and vanished the next. As I smiled, I hoped our brief conversation would work.
I wake up in my bed, and Xander is right next to me holding me tight in his grip. I turn myself so I can stare at his handsome, chiseled face. I run my fingers down his rock-hard abs. I nestle my nose into his neck where I had marked him, and take in a big sniff, falling back to sleep in his arms.
Colt -
Opening my eyes, I notice I nestle my head in a pair of mountainous breasts. If this is a dream, I do not want to wake up. I could tell it was my mate, the lightening from her touch was electrifying my penis wanting to take what is his. Testing my theory of if I am asleep I pinch one boob in front of me. That is when I realize I am not in a dream. Because my dream is not beating me with a pillow.
Covering my face, I yell “Stop, I thought you were a sexy dream” After beating me with a pillow she explained that she needed to be near me as I was her mate, and the skin contact could speed up the healing.
Colt —
“Could I have more wolfs bane.” I laugh out loud.
Xantara —
“Why would you want more wolfsbane?”
Colt-
“If it takes wolfsbane to get you in my bed. Fill me up buttercup, as an old saying goes.” Next thing I know she turns without saying a word, grabs her clothes and gets dressed.
"Hey, I liked the no clothes look, you are HOT. Wow, the moon goddess gave me the hottest mate around!”
Xantara —
"What are you two years old? “Rolling my eyes, I see him jump back on the bed, still naked and not even trying to put on his clothes. He pats the bed next to him. I look over at his member, my wolf is going nuts, wanting me to jump him now.
No man should be as gifted as he is, he has both girth and length. I swear I lost my breath staring subconsciously at it. I hear Colt Smirk and break my eyes away from his long wide friend.
I see the nurses start to pour in. I throw his clothes at him, telling him to get dressed or my wolf might tear these elven women to shreds.
I watch Colt as he hurries to get dressed, winking at me as he does get dressed. I turn and ask the elven women if we could see the elven queen, as we are ready to leave now.
Colt walks up behind me, petting my hair, I am going to kick his butt from here back to the kingdom, I am not a dog to be petted. I quickly swipe his hand away.
Colt laughs and states, “You are my Luna, you are mine, including your beautiful long hair.”
Turning having quite enough of Colt, without even thinking, I kick the egotistical, Macho, jerk in the nuts. I watch him coil over in pain. Feeling satisfied I turn and follow the ladies to the queen, he can catch up.
