Xander's POV:

My angel visibly relaxed in my arms after sometime. After she calmed down, we all decided to go into the building. As soon as we got up, we were shocked to see all the vampires carrying our pack members on their backs. Vincent, who was carrying an unconscious John came to us with a solemn expression. As soon as he laid John down, Ana checked his pulse. "Don't worry, his pulse is stable. It seems that he is only unconscious", she told us. I slightly relaxed on hearing this. "What happened?" Andrew asked. "It seems they were prepared for us. As soon as we entered the building, they have released wolfsbane gas" Vincent replied. Wolfsbane! Goddess, it is very poisonous to us. It is very fortunate that Vincent and his vampires got them out quick, otherwise they most likely would have been dead. But there was something else he is not telling me.

"What is it Vincent? What are you not telling us?", my angel asked him. Vincent handed over a crippled paper to me. "We must go back immediately. Your pack might be in danger!" he said. I was confused but upon reading the contents of the paper, it was clear. It said 'Do your best to find the missing persons. Don't worry about your pack, we would take care of it Alpha'. "Lets go, we should not waste our time here." I shifted immediately, my angel climbed on my back. Vincent took Ana in his arms, and Andrew had John on his back. Our pack members were carried by the vampires. We all started to head towards the pack. We reached our pack in about 10 minutes. By the time we reached, the sky became gloomy. As soon as we entered the pack, our chief warrior along with his comrades  came to assist the vampires in carrying the pack members. I mind linked Sophie and Char about the situation and asked them to go to hospital for taking care of everyone.

After admitting everyone into the hospital, we went to our office for discussing further plans. Sophie and Char went to the hospital to take care of John and other members. "What should we do now?" Andrew asked everyone to which no one had an answer. There were literally no other ways to find the hunters. Sophie walked into the office with a sad smile on her face. "How is he?" my angel asked her. "He is stable now and so are the others. The wolfsbane gas was very dilute and they were rescued at the right time. So they might wake up by tomorrow morning", she said. My angel went to her and hugged lightly. Sophie started sobbing as soon as she was in my mate's arms. "I am sorry that you have to go through all this specially in your condition. But don't worry, everything will be alright. It will be back to normal very soon" my angel said comforting sobbing Sophie. They hugged for sometime and Sophie finally calmed down. "Come on now, you should all eat and rest for a while. The dinner must be ready" Sophie said to which we all nodded. Seeing that there was currently nothing for us to do, it is best to relax our bodies for a while. It was already late, the pack must have completed the dinner. It was just us and Char joined us too. My angel and Ana said they were not hungry so we didn't force them. They drank some buttermilk while we all ate the dinner. Afterwards we went to our room for rest. I was feeling a little bit drowsy suddenly so as soon as I hit the pillow, I was out like a light. 

Someone was shaking me to wake up but I was unable to open my eyes. "Come on Xandy, please wake up", the voice pleaded shaking me vigorously. It was my angel's voice. I was trying to wake up but my eyelids were as heavy as lead. I grunted trying to open my eyes but to no avail. Finally she poured a cup of cold water on me, and that made me wake from my stupor. My eyes opened to see my angel who was looking at me worriedly. As soon as she saw my eyes open, she hugged me tightly and started crying softly. "Oh thank goodness!  I was trying to wake you up since half an hour. But you were not responding. Your pulse was also very slow. I thought something happened to you", she hugged me tighter trying to explain crying. I sat there whispering sweet nothings into her ear  hugging her until her cries died down. "I am okay. But, what happened to me?" I asked myself rather than her. It is very unlikely for me to sleep like this. I am usually a very light sleeper. And I wake up early daily for exercise. I don't understand how I could sleep with her shaking me like this for half an hour. She was about to say something but was cut off by a scream. We both were startled by that scream. It was Ana's voice. We both rushed to see what was happening. We entered her room to see Ana trying to wake an unconscious Vincent. What the hell is happening today. Why is everyone this sleepy. I went towards the bed and poured water at his face just as my angel did to me. He started to wake up. 

Concluding that he is fine, I told my mate to stay with them meanwhile I do my work. She agreed seeing that Ana is still panicking. I hurried towards Andrew's room to see him in the same state. I did the same thing. I poured a jug of cold water on his face to wake him up. When we woke up drenched in water, he looked to me groggily still in half sleep. "Andrew wake up, something is very wrong", I told him which immediately brought him out from the grogginess. "What happened? Why are you here? What time is it and why couldn't I open my eyes easily before?" he asked me. I explained him the situation and told him that we have to check the others once. He immediately agreed and went out. To our surprise everyone were okay and functioning properly. We went to the hospital to see the patients intact. In fact some of them were ok and even discharged from there. When we were about to leave, John came to us and greeted "Hey guys! Why did you come here. I thought Sophie or Char would be here to take me home. But I guess they are kind of busy. So, let's go."  "What do you mean by she is not here. Both Sophie and Char said that they would stay back at the hospital to help monitor the patients. If they are not here, then..?" me and Andrew looked at each other and said at the same time "shit!" John looked at us confusingly but suddenly it clicked to him. His wolf came out and led out a deadly growl.
