Ramond POV

I frowned, opening my eyes and hearing someone being sick, looking to my left seeing Ellie wasn't beside me. I got up, walking to the bathroom, seeing her on her knees, and her head in the toilet bowl.

"Ellie?" I yawned, rubbing my eye as I walked over, holding her hair up.

"It's nothing," she coughed out.

It looks like something...

She finished being sick and stood up after flushing the toilet. She proceeded to the sink, picked up her toothbrush and toothpaste, and began brushing her teeth. I approached her and gently wrapped my arms around her from behind.

I buried my face in the crook of her neck, breathing in her scent. I frowned, sniffing her mark.

Clint was right.

"Babe, who have you been around?"

"Mostly my family, why?"

"No reason..."

For some reason, my wolf got the urge to protect my mate even more.

I shook it off.

"Ellie, I gotta -"

"Yeah, I know the Lorenzo situation," she coldly said.

Well damn mood change...

"It's for your own good, Ellie."

"Mhm," she hummed as she walked out the bathroom.

"Ellie, baby, are you alright?"

She fell face first on to the bed, raising a thumb up.

'We'll talk to mate tonight.' My wolf snarled.

"If there is any issue, please let me know, okay?" She did not respond. I sighed and approached her. "I love you." I kissed her hand and walked out.

A few hours later

Office

"I think you guys shouldn't shift," Vincent said.

"Yeah, you're bigger, but that gives them a bigger chance to bite you," Harry added.

"What do we do? Wear armour?" Nick snorted as a joke.

"Exactly! Just go for the heart or head." Stew proudly said

"Huh..." I hummed.

"I'll teach one half, Stewart will teach the others."

"You sure about that, Uncle Vince?"

"Correction Harry"

"Offended!" Stewart gasped, placing a hand over his heart.

'Baby, can you come back? I feel worse.' Ellie mind linked to me.

I frowned to that.

'On my way'

"Guys, I'll be back. Keep coming up with ideas." I was out of the room before they could even question me as I ran.

Immediately, I was crushed into a hug.

"I need you," she cried. I wrapped my arms around her, stroking the back of her head.

"What's wrong, baby?"

I sat her down on the bed, noticing how pale she looked, she looked like her bloody vampire family.

"Ellie..."

"I don't feel right." she burst into tears, which broke my heart. "Baby, what's wrong?" I crouched down in front of her, taking her hands.

"I don't know, I'm constantly sick, I feel lightheaded, hormonal. Why can't my body be normal?"

"How about I take you to Sandra?"

"Who's that?" She whimpered as I wiped her tears away with my thumb.

"She's the pack doctor, she's very good. Her husband one too. They have a 1 year old daughter together."

"Aww," she cooed as I smiled at that.

I stood up. "C'mon, let's see what's wrong with my baby."

She nodded in agreement and stood up slowly.

As I was leaving, I noticed that Ellie had stopped moving and was swaying.

"Ellie?" I called out to her.

She began to fall, and my eyes widened in surprise. I managed to catch her just in time.

"Ellie?"

She was unresponsive, her eyes closed.

"Can you hear me?" I gently tapped her cheek.

When I failed to detect a heartbeat, panic set in.
