"Good morning," I announced my entrance into the kitchen.

Evander froze for a second before turning around and leaning himself against the countertop with his muscular hands folded across his chest.

Cue the butterflies.

"It's two in the evening," he smirked. I rolled my eyes and walked further into the kitchen, looking around for food since I was starving. "Where is everyone?" I asked since the house was awfully quiet since I woke up a half hour ago. I only decided to brush my teeth and come downstairs since I was hungry.

"Work, I addressed the pack this morning," Evander mumbled, seeming too distracted so I turn slightly to see his eyes on my ass. "Eyes up here, buddy," I playfully scoffed. His eyes ran up my body as I fully turned around to face him.

"All mine," he whispered before taking a few steps so he was in front of me, our chests nearly touching and Evander wasted no time placing his hands around my waist. "What did you talk to them about?" I asked, trying not to blush.

"Uh the video," he answered, pulling my waist closer to him. "And what did they say?" I asked cautiously, feeling a little bit scared of his pack's reaction. "They told that I owe it to them to find my mate," he whispered, a hand on my cheek with his eyes looking deep into mine.

My lips parted to speak while my heart continued to do backflips when the door opened, grabbing both of our attentions. Brandon and Jayden burst through the door with sweat dripping down their foreheads with shock and panic radiating off their bodies. "We found Everest!" Brandon screamed, his eyes darted to Evander.

His body goes stiff," you did? How?" He asked, turning full alpha mode and I sighed, pulling away from him. "It's hard to explain but it's chaos at the hospital, she needs you, Rieka," Brandon quickly blurted out. I snapped my eyes to him consumed with curiosity.

"Why would a she-wolf need me?" I asked but then I remembered him saying something about the hospital. She must be hurt. My eyes widened and I quickly shut the fridge," take me to her."

"Not like that," Evander growled, looking down at my shorts and a black tank top. "I wear a coat Ev, I'll be fine," I assure him before following Brandon and Jayden into the car.

My eyes frantically looked around the hospital open room until they landed on William. His eyes found mine and he rushed to me. "I need a hospital bed!" I shout through the hospital, looking at the wounded girl in his arms. "Thank the goddess, I need you to help her, I don't know- I-I -please just save her. I need her to be okay," William panics as the doctors came rolling in with a portable bed on wheels.

What the hell was William doing here?

"She is going to be okay," I tried to assure him but the more I look at her twisted ankles and arms, I found it hard for me to believe. She was barely breathing. He set her almost body down on the hospital bed.
