I sat there silently listening to the beep of the heart monitor and the steady whooshing sound of the ventilator. They were the only things letting me know that Lyanna was still alive, they were giving me hope that she would wake up and we could start over. I had yet to touch her, yet to speak a single word, make a single sound, I watched her. It was ironic how peaceful she looked lying there attached to the machines.

The door to her room opened startling me, I had been so focused on watching, making sure her chest was still rising and falling, her heart still beating that I had blocked everything else out. I jumped and spun around, seeing Abel standing there I let out a shuddered breath, relieved that it was him.

His face was like stone as he assessed me, but then his eyes flitted over to Lee and it was instantly replaced with a look of deep sadness and guilt. He walked into the room, followed closely by Emma and Callen. I knew they would all come together, but I was hoping that there would have been more time that I could sit here with Lyanna without the interference of other people.

"What did Mom say?" Emma asked quietly as she moved to the other side of Lee's bed.

"Nothing really, she is in a coma. They did what they could. Everything is up to her now. " Emma began fussing over Lyanna, adjusting her blanket, brushing her hair off her face. It took everything inside of me to suppress the growl I wanted to let out. Kol did not want anyone touching her, she already had been hurt enough. Even knowing that these were her people, that they would never hurt her, that they loved her just as much as he did, it did not matter. We did not want anyone else touching her.

"Please." I choked out, looking at Emma as my eyes welled with tears. She looked up at me and instantly knew what I was asking, she always knew. She withdrew her hands from Lee and reached out to grab Abel's hands as he reached to touch her face. Abel glanced at her, annoyance at her stopping him plain on his face, but when she shook her head and looked at me, Abel's eyes followed hers and I knew he knew I could not handle it.

"I get it." Abel said quietly. "We will not touch her." I nodded a silent thank you to them. Emma and Abel sat in the chairs that were placed by the window. It may have been selfish of me, even cruel some might say, but it was a wolf thing.

Silence fell around the room again. No one said anything, no one moved as the minutes ticked by. I'm not sure what it was we were waiting for, but we were waiting for something, anything to happen. Just a sign, even the smallest of signs to tell us that she was going to pull through.

I wasn't sure how much time had passed, but Emma and Abel were now standing beside Lee's bed, Abel looked at me and back to Lee then back to me. This was his way of asking if he could touch her, I nodded my head just the slightest and Abel leaned over pressing his lips to Lee's forehead.

I watched every move he made, he slowly leaned in his lips close to her ear. He spoke so softly, that I could barely hear it, but none the less I did, "Lee, you can pull through this. I know you. You are a fighter. Come back to us. You have a mate waiting for you. We love you, Lee-Lee." He pressed another kiss to her forehead, and they left.

Moments later Callen moved to where Abel and Emma had just been standing. Honestly, I had forgotten he had been in the room, he had not moved since they first arrived. I sat there my eyes on him, as he silently moved through the room, pulling a chair from the window up to Lee's side. Callen was acting as if he was the only one in the room with her, like I was not even sitting there.
