"Your mate, Sequoia, has just woken up."

Devlin and Draven both looked up in complete surprise upon hearing these words. They had just finished their morning training session in the gym and were in the process of getting ready to eat a huge breakfast which was about to be served by the Omegas who served as the penthouse's kitchen staff. 

They were seated across from each other still wearing part of their workout outfits, which consisted of track pants and sneakers, their t-shirts, which they had removed once they had finished their workout, had been casually thrown over the backs of their individual chairs. Their tanned muscular torsos were fully exposed, showing their chiseled abs and matching chest tattoos. 

Each of the twins, had an identical tattoo of a wolf on the opposite side of their torsos.

They had been deep in a conversation about a work-related project they were in the middle of acquiring for McCalla Corp, when they heard someone mention their mates name. Devlin was the first to respond as he and Draven instantly shot to their feet and turned to stare at the beautiful woman who had just walked into the dining room from the Kitchen.

"Alissa? We didn't know you were here. Did you just say that Sequoia is awake?"

"How is she?" Draven chimed in.

"Sit down and yes, your mate is finally awake. I came early to check on her and found her alert. Killian mentioned that you both were exercising in the gym, so I didn't want to disrupt your morning routine and told Killian not to announce me. After a mild bout of vertigo due to moving too quickly when she tried to sit up, I have given Sequoia some pain meds that will counteract any pain and discomfort she may be in.  As far as I can tell, Sequoia is healing quite nicely after her surgery." Alissa told them casually as she strolled over and took one of the empty chairs at the huge dining room table.

Both twins quickly sat down again and turned to stare at their older sister, Alissa, with eager eyes.

The moment Alissa sat down, a female kitchen maid entered the room from the kitchen, in her hand was a teacup, which she carefully placed it in front of Alissa. Alissa nodded her head in thanks before she grabbed the cup and raised it to her lips. A soft smile curved on her full lips a second later.

"Thank the goddess." Draven said, as he watched his sister sipping her tea. Relief flooded his handsome features.

"As it is, I have just finished planning out Sequoia's meals for the week. That's why I am still here. I have informed Chef Leon, that Sequoia is on a liquid diet for the week and then after that period, she can resume eating heartier meals. Also, because of the medication that I have her on for pain and nausea, she is not allowed to drink any alcoholic drinks until she is cleared by me. Her breakfast was just sent up to her about 10 minutes ago." Alissa said, as she sipped her tea.

"Also, before I forget, your mate was asking a lot of questions while I was in there. Some that I couldn't answer. She was quite surprised to know that she has been take to Timber Point Peak and has been residing here for the past two weeks. I am pretty sure she is wondering why you didn't just take her to the university hospital in Red Moon. I don't quite blame her, to be honest. It is quite odd to wake up and find that you are in a strange place among strange people and then find out that you have been taken hundreds of miles away from all you know." Alissa said, placing her cup down on its saucer, eyeing her younger brothers. "No wonder she believed that she had been kidnapped."

Devlin and Draven looked at each other with an uneasy expression on their faces before turning to look at their sister again,

"But she hasn't been..." Both of them started to say but Alissa held up her hand in a dismissive manner and said,
