The Alpha’s Faery

Chapter Twenty Five

Hazel

I was in the hospital wing, the doctors insisted on treating the wound on my back I just wanted to go and see Mel but they wouldn’t let me leave until they had treated and dressed my back, I sat impatiently tapping my foot waiting for the nurse to finish when she finally did I shot out the room and was running down the corridor looking for Mel, I saw Lucas stood outside talking to a doctor “Lucas where is she" I rushed out he smiled gently at me "she's been asking nonstop for you, she's through there" he motioned to the door to the left of him I gave him a quick smile and barged through the door my heart stopped at the sight of Mel she was hooked up to several machines she was covered in bandages, she had a black bruise shining on her right eye that was barely open, when she caught sight of me she grinned but winced as soon as she went to open her arms to give me a hug, I rushed up to her and started balling my eyes out again "I'm so sorry Mel I couldn’t save you” I cried sitting on her bed not wanting to touch her encase I hurt her “I wasn’t strong enough I’m so sorry” my body shaking from the sobs emitting from me Mel shushed me trying to get me to calm down “Haze it wasn’t your fault, you tried they would have taken us both if it wasn’t for you gaining your wings when you did” she sat admiring them I had hardly noticed them too worried about Mel and Tristan I opened them up and me and Mel both gasped “wow Haze they are beautiful! they look like they are sparkling! I've never seen any like that before” Hazel gazed at them admiringly I just let out a little laugh as I wiped my face my still falling tears more of relief now, I knew that my best friend was ok.

Mel was staying in the hospital for now just for the doctors to keep an eye on her as she had hit her head pretty badly but they said she would be fine, I left her with Lucas she was in safe hands with him he was being so gentle and kind with her it was beautiful to see how much he cared for her and Mel was putty in his hands glad of him being there with her. I went back to Tristan's room to look for him I hadn’t seen him since the incident and I needed to see that he was ok an be in his reassuring arms for a while, I looked round the room he wasn’t there so I decided to check his office I lightly knocked on the door “come in” he barked he had never spoken to me like that before I was in two minds whether to go in or not but he must of sensed me as the door flew open and his eyes fell to mine “oh Hazel I’m sorry I barked at you like that I thought you were someone else he stooped down and scooped me up in his arms I didn’t care anymore all I wanted was to be in his arms I buried myself into his chest as he sat down on his chair holding me close to him I inhaled his scent and felt instantly calmed and safe the events of today had taken more of a toll on me than I had realised I sighed deeply wanting to stay like this forever but someone was knocking on Tristan's door again “come in” he called softer than before as I sat up on his lap I went to get off but he firmly kept me in place I was happy to stay there so if he was I wasn’t going anywhere “Alpha” it was one of the guards who walked me back earlier “Daz” Tristan replied to him “there have been no more sightings everything seems calm for now the village is safe and so are the surrounding areas, we will keep the full guard out for tonight encase of any disturbances” Daz said officially to Tristan “ok but we will need all the wolves we can in a few weeks' time, pick your best fighters to join me in training they can rest tomorrow but then it will be full training to be warriors” Tristan told him Daz nodded but gave me a quick wink before leaving the room “how is Mel?” Tristan asked me softly nuzzling my hair “they said she will be fine but they want to keep her in for now to keep an eye on her because she was unconscious but Lucas is with her she’s well taken care of” I smiled at the thought of Mel and Lucas being together, “good, and how are you?” he asked me concern in his eyes “I’m ok honestly” I cupped his face in my hand his stubble scratching my hand he lent into my hand and kissed it “are you ok?” I asked him quietly he sighed “I’m fine Hazel, but the white witch declared war with us, its going to be a tough time for everyone, we need all the help we can get and you will now have to learn to control and use your powers I'm going to see the queen in a moment I will speak to her about it” he closed his eyes “can I come with you?” I asked him “of course you can, I didn’t think you would want to after today” his eyes lighting up “yeah I want to come especially if you are talking about me!” I joked he grinned “oh Hazel I was so worried before, I felt your emotions so powerfully I didn’t understand what was happening but now I know its because of your powers coming in, now I can sense you around and I can feel your emotions so clearly, are you able to feel mine?” he asked hopeful I think he was hoping our bond would be the same or nearly the same, I sat quietly I hadn’t had much time to think about my powers I had only used them that once then I had forgotten all about them I closed my eyes a moment just breathing in Tristans scent then I felt an overwhelming wave of emotions wash over me it was Tristans love for me I could feel it I felt like his heart was beating in my chest alongside mine it was unreal I opened my eyes and looked up into Tristans adoring eyes “I can feel you Tristan” I whispered to him he looked so happy as he lent down to kiss me softly.
