Phoenix the Rising Alpha

36

Roswell's POV:

We sat in Nezm pack hospital room for almost a week without leaving once (well I left to shower and change my clothes, Phoenix actually never left his room once) just in case he woke up.

After our parents left Phoenix just sat in the chair next to Nezm's bed without once. He just sat and stared at him. I felt bad because I was more worried about Phoenix well-being than Nezm's. Most of the time we sat in silence.

Phoenix staring at Nezm, me staring at Phoenix. The only words that were spoken was when I asked Phoenix to go shower or that the food was delivered and it was time to eat. Which he refused to do either.

After Phoenix refusing to eat or shower by the third day I had, had enough of him not taking care of his self and left Nezm's room to go and talk to either Alpha Laurent or Luna Larry or maybe both of them.

I understand he is worried, but him not taking care of his self while worrying about his mate is not good either.

After showering I knocked on Alpha Laurent's office door and waited for permission to enter, hearing the come in, I walked into Alpha Laurent's office and smiled. Both Alpha Laurent and Luna Larry were inside his office and Luna Larry was sitting on Alpha Laurent's lap. I can't wait to be able to do that and other "couples things" with my mate.

'Alpha Laurent, Luna Larry'. I greeted them bowing slightly.

'Roswell, come in, come in'. Luna Larry said. I smile, nodded and closed his office door before sitting down on the chair in front of his desk.

'What can I do for you Prince Roswell'? Alpha Laurent asked me. I'm not sure why but all of a sudden I became nervous. I gulped and looked Alpha Laurent in the eye and gathered my thoughts before voicing my concerns.

'It's okay Roswell no need to be nervous'. 'My husband will address you as prince, because that is your title until you say otherwise'. 'No need to be nervous'. 'Now tell what brought you here'. Luna Larry said. I nodded my head feeling a little more relaxed.

'I came because of Phoenix'. I rushed out. I waited for them to ask me anything but they didn't so I continued. 'He won't leave Nezm side to take a shower'. 'I told him I would bring him clothes and he could shower in the room but he refuses'. 'I finally stopped asking him'. 'Also since the day you visited and we ate together, was the last time Phoenix had eaten'. 'An Omega comes everyday with a tray of food for the both of us, but Phoenix refuses it'. 'I cannot continue watching my mate not take care of his self while he is sitting like a frozen statue next to his mate's bed hoping for him to wake up'. I explained breathing heavily.

'I felt something through our link, but he has been blocking me so I couldn't quite figure it out'. Luna Larry said, his voice laced with sadness.

'I'm sorry'. 'I should have said something sooner'. I told them. I watched as both Alpha Laurent and Luna Larry shook their heads no, disagreeing with me. I sighed softly.

'Thank you for telling us Roswell'. 'I will be down there in a few minutes after I gather some clothes for Phoenix'. Luna Larry said. I nodded my head getting up from the office chair.

'I personally will bring food for all four of us to eat'. I heard Alpha Laurent say in his stern voice. I smiled knowing my mate has loving, understanding parents.

'Go back to the pack hospital, we will see you soon'. Luna Larry said, hugging me before leaving Alpha Laurent's office.

I was about to leave when Alpha Laurent called me.

'Prince Roswell'? I froze waiting for him to say something else.

'Don't worry to much about Phoenix'. 'He is as stubborn as me, but takes after my
Larry, with soft kind heart'. 'Once his shock wears off he'll be back to his old self'. 'So don't worry to much, after we all eat together he'll snap out of his self torture'. I smiled and nodded my head leaving his office.

I felt a little better after talking to Alpha Laurent and Luna Larry.

I'm glad I talked to both of Phoenix parents, I knew if anyone was able to help me, help Phoenix I knew it would be those two.

I kept my smile on the whole walk back to the pack hospital.

'Mate's will be okay'. Cypress my wolf linked me. I nodded my head agreeing with him. I felt happy knowing my wolf is starting to accept Nezm as our other mate.

But still kind of apprehensive about having a second mate, especially this mate, after what our second mate had done to Phoenix.

Once I reached the pack hospital room, I felt a sudden jolt of electricity coming from inside the room. The hair on my arms and neck began to stand up causing a wave of static shock run over me.

'Mate'. Was all Cypress said before I ran into the hospital room only to freeze in my steps at the scene before my eyes.

Nezm was holding Phoenix up in shat looked like an electric orb. I was confused and a little scared for Phoenix and to be honest also for Nezm.

I'm not sure what or how Alpha Laurent and Luna Larry will react to the scene in front of me once they walk into this room.

"Don't worry Roswell". "I am fine". I heard Phoenix say through our link. I nodded back but didn't answer him.

"I don't think this wolf is Nezm". I heard Phoenix say.

'What do you mean'? I asked him.

I watched as Phoenix shook his head probably not knowing how to answer me. Unfortunately I don't know enough about Nezm to know about his characteristics to understand if this behavior is normal or not.

"Trust me, this is not Nezm". "I already linked my parents and my uncle's, they will be here soon". Phoenix linked me, I nodded my head and walked the rest of the way into the hospital room.

I wanted to stand beside Phoenix, but he linked me to just sit on the chair next to the hospital bed and wait for my mate's parents to arrive. Sighing heavily I nodded and did as I was told.
