Chapter 224
“That still does not tell me where she is.” I ground out through clenched teeth, every single person currently in the medical tent was treading on extremely thin ice. I could feel my wolf form edging to the surface, but forced it down. Shifting in the confines of the base was fruitless and would only cause me pain.
“She’s resting in her RV… but…” I didn’t waste any more time in trying to find the patience to listen to what the doctor had to say, I was much more concerned with seeing what sort of state Dylan was in with my own eyes. At least then I could come to my own conclusions. I ran out of there before anyone could say anything more to me, and went straight to the RV that held my sleeping mate.
As soon as I entered the small van, I let my eyes wonder over to the bed, it was there that Dylan was resting, a single small pulse monitor lay on her finger, and caused a rhythmic consistent beeping sound to echo through the room.
She looked peaceful, her beautiful yet pale face was in a rare state of contentment, it made a change, in the few times I had been present while she slept, I had noticed her face contorting strongly out of fear and pain, all while being in the middle of her slumber, but now there was nothing, not even a flicker from her eyelids symbolising her dreaming mind, no, She was completely still. Her plump pink lips were gently parted to allow her unconscious breath to escape them, and her long thick hair lay sprawled out on the pillow that led under her head, her heart rate as steady as a drum while she dreamt of goddess knows what.

I gently sat on the bed and sighed, running my hand over her hair a few times for comfort, to hopefully give her an even larger sense of serenity. The doctor was right, I didn’t need to worry just yet, if she was simply asleep, which she did appear to be, then I needed to let my girls mind catch up to the rest of her body, she needed to rest more than anyone else.
I have to admit though, I’m that specific moment, Dylan genuinely seemed even more lovely than she usually did, and I couldn’t understand why, I also couldn’t comprehend why my once fearful mind had instantly become more at ease the second I entered the room. It was as if the mere presence of her caused my wolf form to calm. Even still, my mate was unconscious, without a single explanation as to why, however I did not feel that deep sense of dread I had mere
moments ago.
“I’m not sure what dream you are having or where your mind is right now, but please come back to me, we need to talk remember.” I finally took her hand in mine caressing the skin on her opposite arm softly. “Wake up soon for me, Dyl. Please…”
I watched closely in deep fascination as the moon had begun to shrink slowly in size more and more as each night passed, it’s shape beginning to resemble that of a banana.
“Dear Goddess Luna…” I prayed every single day to the moon goddess for Dylan’s safety, I hoped she was listening to my prayer, and I hoped my beautiful soulmate would understand everything. “Please, please bring her back safe, allow her to wake and take on the role that you chose her for. Please, she has a lot to give the world.”
Little did I know that she wouldn’t awaken for several days. It caused agony to envelope the heart in my chest, and so
after a few days my worry began to quickly spread again.
