Sylis POV

Coma.

That was the only thing that came to mind as I looked at Atticus who laid in his hospital bed. Its been a month and the cut on his head is healed, but the broken leg isn't. His hair was tousled and his skin was paled more than usual.

I took his ice cold hand in my head and kissed it, the tingles still prominent but they were different.I placed his small hand that I held in both hands and blew on them.

"Sylis. Its not good for you stay up here like this." Alpha Eric said behind me.

"What did you get out of the people?" I deadpanned.

"That it was on pourpse but they didn't do it that they didn't have control over their bodies."

I tensed.

I knew exactly what that ment. They were possessed by a demon. Lucas had something to do with this, I know it. I kissed my baby's fingers one by one before placing it under the blanket on the bed.

"Why don't you head home? If he wakes up you'll be the first to know." Alpha tried.

"No, I want to be here when he wakes up. If someone tried to hurt him, I need to stay with him and protect him." I said walking to the small closet that was in the room.

Grabbing the spare blanket that was ment for me, I walked back to the bed and draped it over him. I bent down and kissed his head before sitting back down in the chair.

"Fine. I'm not going to order you." Alpha sighed and left the room.

Is been up for the passed month and barely slept, and it's taken a toll on me as I sat there. Slowly I leaned back in the chair, my eye lids becoming heavier. Slowly I let myself drift to sleep with Atticus slowly disappearing as I closed my eyes.

Slowly I woke up with the weight of someone in my lap. Opening my eyes I looked down in my lap to see Atticus snuggled into my lap.

"Atticus?" I asked softly in his ear.

He hummed in response, the cast on his foot was setting on the arm of the chair as his other was crossed under it.

Silence.

That was my only response. I quickly looked at his heart monitor and saw the stedy lines. I gently shook him hoping he would wake up.

"He's still in a coma Sylis. You grabbed him and would let him go in your sleep." The Alpha spoke softly.

My eyes burned and I nodded setting him back on the bed and covering him up. I heard the Alpha sigh and leave the room, the door clicking shut. A sob slipped past my lips and I pinched the bridge of my nose.

"Wake up damn it!" I sobbed.

I wanted to see his green eyes, hear his sweet voice. I wanted my Atticus back.

"Please baby. Wake up, I need you." I whimpered pressing my forehead to his.

I kissed his nose and his head before sitting down again. I felt torn up, this was my fault. If I would have protected him more he would be awake right now.

"You should have let me turn him Sylis, he would be awake right now." Lucas' voice rang.

"Get the fuck out of here!" I growled standing up and spinng towards his voice.

Anger surged through me as I ran and gripped his throat. I bared my teeth at him, my hands transforming into claws. I dug them into his neck my growls rippling through the room.  His face scrunched in pain before he vanished.

"Fine Sylis. I'll leave you be, I was just trying to give you more time with him." Lucas snapped before vanishing once again.

Quickly my gaze snapped toward the heart monitor seeing it was perfect, nothing to worry about.

"You're going to be fine." I said nestling my head into his nape. "Nobody's gonna take you and Lucas is definitely not taking your soul." I growled.

The nurse came in hours later with a hot bowl of water and a sponge. She scurried out of the room as I moved his blankets.  Slowly I took off his hospital gown and underwear.  I slowly gave him a bath before quickly dressing him and covering him with the blankets.

I skimmed my knuckles across his cheek and sat down in the chair.

"Goodnight baby." said grabing his hand in mine and running my thumb over his knuckles.
