Fear courses through my veins as I watch Valentina fall to the ground and lose consciousness. It's my fault and everyone is aware. I'm too busy proving to my brother I'm better than him to realize that she needed me, it's another reason why I don't deserve her. As I watch her at the corner of my eye falling to the ground with her eyes wide with fear I didn't help her, and I didn't care.

"She's in a coma." The doctor said with pity mixed with his grave voice.
"How the hell does she get in a coma if it's just a fall." Apollo growls, slamming the wall next to him. He's more pissed than I am about this.

"She slammed her head hard, and she hasn't changed form which will make it longer to heal. I'm sorry that I can't help further." I didn't even realize the doctor left until a maid tells me he left the premises. My eyes are set on Valentina, but I know it's hopeless it's not like my eyes can make her magically wake up.

Her eyes are sunken and dark crescent like rims surrounded them, her skin is sickly pale and her arms are frail. Wires attached to her, a machine that is breathing for her and all this because I couldn't leave her alone. I walk out of the room pissed, angry, but most of all ashamed.

My father is inside his study with his door locked, he thinks I hurt the pup that no one knows of yet. The pup can be imaginary, but I won't know until Valentina wakes up or nine days from now when I can hear it's heartbeat. This past week and all this has happened, I don't know what I'll do if more shit piles. Maybe go to the boxing arena and beat the shit out of someone for fun, that always seems to work.

I head towards the one place I'm welcome, I knock on the door and there's no answer. I knock again and again until she opens the door mid-knock."Alec, what're you do-," I kiss her before she can finish her sentence. I needed a distraction from the shit that appears to be coming at me with a vengeance.

She pulls me into the room and slams the door closed and of course my distraction is ready for me. I push her on the bed and climb on top, our breathes hot on each other's faces. Valentina's scent runs inside my nose and I push it away, I haven't had sex since Valentina and I'm not allowing her to ruin me. Mate or not no one will change who I am. I pull off her dress and then her bra before the door opens loudly.

"What the hell, Alec. Is this a joke?" It's Apollo's voice, angry and hurt at the same time.

"She's in there. Hurt and possibly not waking up because of us."

"What do you care, Apollo? She isn't yours." I groan.

"When she wakes up. I'm taking her with me." He says and it catches my attention which is exactly what he wants. I get off the bed and walk towards Apollo.

"No you wouldn't." My Wolf's protective side kicks in. Whether I want Valentina or not, it's not his choice to take my mate and my child with him. Then it hits me, he likes her and a pang of remembrance hits my head. The image of Dessy's lips touching Apollo's are more vivid now than centuries ago when it actually happened but it didn't matter because numbness quickly sets in and I start to care less. Haley is covering her chest, her breathe heavy and quick. Apollo could do whatever, stay at Valentina's bed for all I care, but we all knew who she belonged with and I'll be the first one to know when she's awake.

"I'm going. Just know that just because she's your mate doesn't mean she can't be with others." I ignore his comment and he leaves the room. By the time the conversation is over, I'm not in the mood for sex. This was supposed to be our finale sex, Haley is leaving tonight and I really wanted to give her a nice goodbye but now I don't feel like it.

When Valentina fell, I didn't feel her pain like I was supposed to and maybe it's because our bond is tattered but it puzzled me. After trying to figure it out for myself I decide to go to the one person that might know what happened.

"Mom." My voice echoes in the quiet room that held her cell. Sometimes I wonder why she still hasn't figured out a spell that can break her out. It's been centuries and she's still under my Father's castle.

"What do you want?" Her voice is coarse and she's annoyed, today is one of those days for her.

"Something is wrong with Valentina."

"Nothing is wrong."

"Then why couldn't I feel her when she fell, I'm supposed to feel her pain."

"When a wolf gets pregnant by an Alpha. The baby usually feels it, so you should be less worried about yourself and more on the baby," I turn around and towards the door, "but. There's something about this baby. The baby is everything: a vampire, wolf, and a witch. The ultimate hybrid they'd call it in my day. It's rare but every millennium it happens. This is the first since I created the original vampires. Please keep her safe, Alec. She's vulnerable. Don't let her go back home especially after three months."

My mother's voice is frantic, and My Wolf becomes panicked at the thought of losing our mate and pup. I knew that I have to protect her, but I couldn't help but think that it's all my fault. If I wasn't so drunk, I'd probably have put on a condom but I didn't and it results in her bearing my pup in nine months.

"She can't stay here. I don't want her to."
"You listen to me," my mother's voice booms. The loudest she's ever spoken in decades,"she will stay here. And you will make sure she gets everything she needs. Send for her parents."

"This will cause war."

"War for what? War for you being her mate? Please, the packs will not be so stupid. You're the True Alpha my child, no one can beat my son." I nod in response and head upstairs.

Keep her safe.

My mother's voice echoes in my head and it sinks in as I head towards the room Valentina is lying in.

I will.
