Free Web NovelChapter 74: Chapter 74 New Friends
Abby’s POV
The last thing I remember is my sisters screaming my name, and someone catching me when I fell. Then everything went dark. Galaxy whined in my head. She was worried, which worried me a lot. Nothing usually shook her cool and collected mind. She used to take everything in stride, but not this time.
Then after some time I find myself in the same place, as when I met my mother. Great! Galaxy probably brought me here, so I could heal from whatever crap Sylla poisoned me with.
I walk up to the tree, looking at my beautiful wolf laying there, head between her legs looking kind of broken. I sit down beside her, putting my hand on her big soft head, stroking her. She huffs in contempt. freewebnovel.cσ๓
"Galaxy, what is happening?" I ask her, worry spreading like wildfire, turning everything cold.
’I don’t know, little one. I’m sorry! This time, I don’t have any answers. We are dying, but it’s slow. That’s all I know,’ she answers with sad eyes. A stray tear escapes her. The seriousness of the situation takes my breath away. I can’t believe we are dying.
What about Matt, my children, our pack? What about all the realm, my people? I can’t even comprehend why this is happening to me. I have always put myself last, put everyone else first. Minding my own damn business. The questions kept running through my head as time went on. It felt like a lifetime with just me and Galaxy, but then finally I heard voices around me. I felt something soft under my body. It was warm and comforting.
People were talking, panicking. Then I felt the sparks course through my body. This felt so surreal. I was still sitting under the tree with Galaxy, but I felt everything in my body. I heard everything happening in the room.
Then Galaxy raises her head. She sniffs the air. Then a thumping sound. And an excruciating pain course through me, spreading from my neck throughout my entire body. What is happening?
Then a jolt of electricity sends me reeling back into my body, and I notice I’m laying in a bed. Someone is sitting next to me, biting my neck. By the sparks, I guess it’s Matt. What is he doing? Marking me again. Hm. I don’t know what to say to him if I ever wake up again. I don’t want to say goodbye, but I also want that. Mostly, I want to see his beautiful eyes again, taste his lips on mine, and just be held in his strong arms one last time.
When he lets go of my neck, I feel the loss of contact and my neck feels so cold. Then his tongue replaces his canines. Warmth spread out from where he is licking the wound close.
Suddenly, everything burns from my fingers to my toes. I can feel Galaxy pacing in my mind, walking like a lion in a cage. Outside, nothing happens. I can’t move a muscle or scream. But inside I am thrashing from side to side, screaming in my mind while Galaxy paces. She hums. A melodic sound, which calms my inner battle. Her humming starts an avalanche of things, all at once.
My body relaxes, my heart rate slows down, my breathing evens out. In my swollen stomach, the twins moves in rhythm to the melody. There is a gasp from the room. I can feel what is happening. I’m glowing. But how I look, and why I am glowing, I don’t know.
"Look, her arm." Someone familiar and close says with hope in her voice.
"Why is she glowing like that? Is she humming?" Another asks. When the question is left to be answered, I notice that I am, in fact, humming along with Galaxy.
"Look, it emanates from her stomach. Could it be the twins?" The first voice sounds again. Why is it so familiar to me? Then it hit me. It’s Willow. But how? How is she here, when I am clearly in a bed in our pack? I can feel the aura of the surrounding persons, and they are pack members. Am I dreaming this?
After what feels like hours, the melody comes to an insistent end. It reaches notes I didn’t know I could produce.
Galaxy has laid down again, looking on and huffing in content. The twins are no longer moving in rhythm, but moving here and there, just to let me know they are still there.
I slowly but surely open my eyes. They are heavy, like the way a ton. But after some struggle, they open and I take in the room.
Anxious faces. That’s what I see. A lot of anxious faces. Then someone at my side breaks down, and cry into my neck. The sparks are giving the person away. Matt.
"My love, look at me." I coo at him with a hoarse voice. He only buries himself tighter into my neck, shaking as the sobs wrack his body. He clearly does not care that our family is here. I look at Ellie and Willow, who get the message.
They both turn around and usher everyone out.
’We will come back when you are better. We have an issue, but we are handling it. Get some rest, and Abby?’ I look into the concerned eyes of Ellie.
’Please stop almost dying on us.’ I smile and shrug my shoulders. It’s not like I do it on purpose.
’I’ll try, little sister.’ I link back before I furrow my brow.
’What trouble?’ I ask in a hurry before she leaves the room. I sense a tension between her and Jason, but hadn’t thought about any of it.
’I will fill you in, but apparently Jonathan and Jeremy have found their mates, but said mates are not exactly best friends.’ She grimaces at the thought of the drama ahead.
When the door closes behind Ellie, I turn to my mate. Hugging him close and saying random things in his ears, letting him cry it out.
