Mated to a control freak Alpha

Chapter Fifty-Four

"Skylar you need to get some sleep." Hazel pleads taking Emilio from my arms.

"I have had some sleep." I lie turning to look at her.

George, Denva, Lloyd, Natasha, my mum and Mark are stood behind her all looking at me with sad expressions.

"For the past week you've gotten out of bed at 1am, picked up Emilio and in this window seat like you're in some kind of trance!" Hazel exclaims.

Frowning I look around confused.

"No....no....I had a nightmare last night and this was the first time I've done this.." I mumble scratching my head.

"You've been saying that for the past week too sweetie." My mum sighs walking over and sitting beside me.

I open my mouth to reply but I hear a sob escape my chest.

My mum instantly wraps her arms around me and pulls me into her chest.

Crying into her shoulder I feel the exhaustion hit me like a tonne of bricks.

"We don't want to watch you go through this everyday Skylar, you need some help." Natasha soothes.

"What can we do?" I whimper.

"I've gone to the pack doctor and he gave me these pills. It'll put you into a coma-like sleep until you are back to your full health. We've all spoken about it and we all think it's best." She explains.

My eyes shoot to George and he looks away.

"Where are the pills?" I ask looking back to Natasha.

She pulls them out of her pocket and I stand up, walk over shakily before shoving past George into the bathroom.

"Only take one." Natasha warns.

Filling up the glass with cold water I take a single pill but feel nothing.

Biting my lip I take another and I feel myself getting dizzy.

Stumbling into the bedroom I feel my knees give way and grab onto the nearest person.

"It's going to be okay Sky...I love you." George whispers picking me up.

"I love y-you too.." I slur.

My head drops back and I feel everything fading.

Voices become muffled and my whole body goes numb.

Feeling like I'm floating on clouds and I'm soon consumed by sleep.

George's P.O.V.

Watching her lay so peacefully there, makes my heart hurt.

"George....Mark and I were wondering that if it was okay for us to look after Emilio until Skylar wakes up.." Theresa (Skylar's mum) says softly placing her hand on my shoulder.

"I would happily take your support Theresa..but I do need to see my son and spend time with my son. You can move into the pack house and help with his care until Sky awakens." I sigh keeping my eyes on my beautiful mate.

Hazel walks over and hands Emilio to me.

He lays on my chest, his hands gripping my shirt as he stares up at me with his big blue eyes.

He has Skylar's eyes...

My only option to get through this time without her is to be with Emilio as much as possible.
