Elijah’s pov I’m still next to her, my precious mate. it’s been a week since I got here and she’s crashed, twice, there telling us, she will die if it happens again. My mate, that I have been waiting for since I turned eighteen, that’s half my life, has just been on pause. fooling myself that Lynn was going to be enough for me. What a f*****g i***t I was! Father brought her to the VIP area and got in some doctors that are wolves. They tell me I should mark her, that the bond will be stronger, but her father is against it, and I think he is right. I don’t want to mark her while she’s in a coma. Maybe I’m selfish, but I want to wait until she can choose for herself, I don’t want her to wake up and just be marked. I’m raised better than that. Mother walks in, she looks like she just came
