I wake up to a harsh pain in my head. My hand is enveloped in warmth as tingles shoot up my arm. My eyes flash open and immediately close because of the bright light. That's weird. Only my left eyes is affected by the light. Then everything comes back to me as I quickly sit up.

I hear a gasp to my left and slowly look over in that direction. Hazel eyes filled with worry and shock stare back at me.

I try to get up only to be gently held back. My eyes tear up as I struggle against the hands that hold me down. The hands quickly turn into arms as I'm held against his chest. I start to sob as Alec whispers sweet nothings into ear and rocks me back and forth.

After I stop crying and am just sniffling a little, Alec lifts my chin up to meet his gaze. He then buries his head in my neck and I start to feel a wetness there. My skinny arms wrap around him on instinct. He leans into me and wraps his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him. So close that I'm sitting in his lap.

I blush and try to get up only to be growled at, making me both shiver in fear and something else. Desire. "Mine." I hear before Alec tightens his arms around me, trapping me.

"Please let me go," I whisper. He wines.

"Nope. Not happening." Laughing a little I surprise myself by snuggling into his warmth. He takes his head out of my neck and places a chaste kiss on my forehead.

"I should probably get the doctor," Alec says. He reaches over to press the call button. The doctor comes in less than 30 seconds later.

He checks my vitals while having to work around Alec who wouldn't let me go.

"Okay, you're all good. We'll keep you one for night and than you can sign out tomorrow."

I smile at him, "Thanks Doc." He gives me a smile before leaving.

"Why?" I turn my head to Alec, startled by how broken his voice sounds. "Why did you do this? Do you know how worried I was? Three months. Three fucking months I sat here waiting for you to wake up. I barely slept. I barely ate. I did nothing but sit here waiting for you to open those beautiful blue eyes of yours." He was in tears by the end of it.

"I don't know," I said in my hoarse voice. But I did. I did know why. But I wasn't saying anything until I knew I could trust him. And you'd expect me to trust him right away since he is my mate and all. But my trust issues run deep.

I start to feel dizzy and lay down only to find a chest beneath my head and arms holding me close. His scent overpowers all other as I take a deep breath. Alec runs his fingers through my hair, lulling me to sleep. But not before I hear one last thing.

"I love you, Rain."

I finally did it! Thanks for all the love and support! Ignore the author's note after this chapter. Don't forget to hit the star and comment.
