A Time for Healing

2289 Words
Dean ’s POV…. When we got to Lycaon Sam was still unconscious and still bleeding. His body was trying to heal but couldn’t fast enough. I had already called the pack and they were ready for us. “Josh , Ryan, you know what to do with the Luna.” They nodded and did as told. We rushed Sam to the pack clinic and Dr. Anderson was already waiting for us. “Lay him on the bed.” He told us. When the doc started examining him we noticed the bit on his chest looked infected. It had black veins coming out of it and looked like it was expanding to the rest of his body. I pulled Lucia back to let the doc help him. We walked out and Dr. Anderson walked out about 30 min. later. “I did all I could.” “What do you mean?” I asked already getting angry. “The venom in the bite is nothing I’ve ever seen , so I don’t know how to treat it.” A loud growl escaped my lips and I grabbed him by the collar and pulled him off the ground. “THEN GIVE HIM EVERYTHING!” “IF I DO AND IT’S THE WRONG ANTIDOTE HE’LL DIE INSTANTLY! AT LEAST THIS WAY HE HAS A CHANCE TO TRY TO FIGHT IT OF HIMSELF! PLEASE ALPHA!” He pleaded . He was right, and me taking it out on him wasn’t fair; this wasn’t his fault. I slowly lowered him back to the ground and he fixed his collar and shirt. I had to do something. I couldn't just leave him there to die. I was pacing back and forth pulling my hair. “Genevive.” Lucia looked at me baffled. I didn’t explain, I just rushed to my office and dialed her number I had memorized by heart. I had dialed it all day but hung up before she could answer. It rang for what felt like an eternity. “Hello” Her voice took my anxiety down a notch. “Genevive I need your help.’’ My voice came out low and harsh. “What ’s wrong?” “Please come quick and bring everything you have as an antidote or …” “I’m on my way.” She didn’t say or let me say anything else she just hung up. I hung up the phone and heard a commotion outside. I ran outside worried about an attack. I saw Genevive, Row and Sonya walk out of a portal. They stepped out and the portal swirled into nothing. She rushed over to me but stopped when she got too close. “What happened?” “It 's Sam.” I led them to the clinic where Sam was still out. When Row saw him her eyes glazed over and she rushed to his side. “What happened?” She asked with her tears falling down her cheeks. Genevive examined him and put her hand on his forehead while she closed her eyes. “What did this?” She asked me. “I’m not sure.” “What did it look like?” “Like a big werewolf with long pointy ears and a flat nose.” Her reaction told me she knew what it was. “What?” She turned to look at me, “I need you to hold his legs down and don’t let go. Row hold on to his arms.” She put one hand on Sam’s wound and the other on his head. I held on to Sam’s legs, my eyes fixated on Genevieve. A violet glow came out of her hands and her eyes began to glow dark purple. Then she began reciting. “By earth, air ,fire and water. So shall you hear my call Powers of birth and rebirth. Cure the body , prevent the fall. Mighty Goddess , Mother Circe Bring him back , let him hear my call.’’ Suddenly Sam began spazzing , his body started jumping up and down. “KEEP HIM DOWN!” Gen yelled. But her voice wasn’t her own. I kept my eyes on Gen. Now both hands were on his wound. She gripped it and began again. “Unnatural poison I feel your hold. You will be banished from this home.” Samuel began yelling and the dark veins around the wound and his body were receding. Whatever she was doing to him was helping but hurt. “Samuel, listen, find the light, don’t let it escape, hold on tight.” Sam’s body relaxed and he stopped yelling. Genevive’s eyes returned to normal. I noticed she was holding on to the bed and struggling to stay footed. “The venom is gone , he has to heal on his own now.” Genevieve ‘s POV…… I turned to Row and she looked worried. “I’m fine .” I whispered to her. I walked to Dean who was informing his pack on Sam’s condition. “Can I speak with you?” I asked Dean. Before he could answer, his pack members came up to me and thanked me for helping their Beta. I smiled and shook hands . They obviously loved Samuel. Dean walked me to a private room inside the clinic. “What is it?’’ He asked me. I got close to him and placed my hands on his chest. I began healing him but he stopped me. “Don’t.” “You need healing. I can see the pain you’re in, vampire venom is hard on Lycans.” “I’ll be fine .” He said walking away. “You said you could trust me. I just helped your brother but trusting me with you that's where you draw the line, right? Whatever.” I rolled my eyes and now it was me walking away but as I walked by him he took my arm and stopped me. “If I didn’t trust you I wouldn’t have called you.” I just stared at him with an annoyed look on my face. He stood in front of me and held my hands in his. “Helping Sam affected you, I saw it. I don’t want you to get hurt. So just let me heal on my own.” He was worried about me? “Dean, Sam was almost at the point of no return, that's why it was harder on me to bring him back. Therefore it took more out of me. Healing you will be no problem and I need to do this.” He didn’t understand my comment but gave me a small smile and nodded. I placed my hands on him and healed him. “How do you feel?” I asked him. He exhaled and smirked, “Amazing. Thanks.’’ “You’re welcome.” Dean let go of me and cleared his throat. “Ahem.” He walked to the other side of the room and put some distance between us. “Gen, you know what we were up against out there, don’t you?” I sat down on the couch inside the room. “Dean, what you described sounds like a Hybrid. Were-Pire.” He looked so confused. “A werewolf , vampire hybrid?” I nodded. “Henry.” His voice sounded angry and I saw his eyes almost go black. “Of course Henry, Nobody can create a change but an Alpha.” I realized something I hadn’t before. “Dean.” “What is it?” “Sam was in real bad shape, but it wasn’t his body that couldn't heal, it was his beast. His beast was dying but he was converting to something else.” “Your saying that hybrid tried to change Sam?’’ “It makes sense, if he is the first of his kind that makes him an Alpha. His bite can shift if he wants.” “Why would they want to change Sam?” He asked hoping for answers but I didn’t have any. “I don’t know …but we know someone who does.” We walked back to Sam’s room and Row was still there holding his hand. She saw us walk in and quickly let him go and stood up. Dean grinned , “Please don’t let him go, Sam needs all the love we can give him right now.” Row relaxed and went right back to where she was holding Sam’s hand. “We need to go speak with their Luna.” He was talking when a purple haired girl rushed into the room . She saw me then turned to Sam and saw Row , her nostrils flared and her eyes narrowed in on Row's hand wrapped with Sam’s . “Lucia, this is Master Genevive.” She looked at me and did not look impressed. She gave me a ‘hey’ nod with her head then headed towards Sam. “Forgive her, she's just worried about Sam.” “Don’t worry it’s fine.” “SHE FORGETS HER MANNERS.” He said, trying to get her to react but all she could see was Row at Sam’s side. We were walking out when Row stopped us. “Alpha , Master . If it’s alright with both of you I’d like to stay with Sam tonight. Just in case he needs anything.” “He should have someone watching over him at least for tonight.” Dr. Anderson who was quietly in a corner said. “NO! I'M STAYING WITH HIM!” Lucia shouted. We all turned to look at her surprised. But Dean looked pissed. She quickly changed her tone. “Alpha, I thought I would stay with him. Like I always have.” She said those last words like they were meant to be for Row. “Alpha, Lucy. I don’t mean to cross a line here I’m just worried about Sam.” Lucia looked at Row with disgust for every word coming out of her mouth. Dean was about to step in when Sam began to move around. We all turned to look at him. “...Row……Row…” Was all we could hear. Row’s face filled with pride and happiness. She went back to the place she was at when we first walked in and took his hand in hers. “I’m right here Sam, and I’m not leaving.” She said, turning toward Lucia. “...Row….” Sam managed to whisper before passing out again. “Well now that that’s settled.” Dean said. Lucia looked at all of us and rushed out. She looked hurt, but Sam had spoken. He wanted Row by his side. I walked over to Row and kissed her head. “Help him find the light and follow it. Don’t lose him.” “I won’t.” Dean walked me out , “I should drive you home.” “No, we have to talk to their Luna first.” “We?” “Yeah, as in you and me.” “You’re not speaking with her.” “Why not?!” “Because as of right now you’re not involved in all this, and I’m going to keep it that way.” I crossed my arms in front of my chest. “You don’t think Henry is going to find out I was here tonight?” “You’re here strictly as a healer.” He assured me. “Really? You’ve never called me in 30 yrs but now you need healing?” “Genevive you’re not coming with me.” “Yes I am!” “Why is this so freaking important to you?!” “I’m not leaving you alone in this!” “Why not?” he asked really not understanding my reason for wanting to go with him. “Because I’m not.” I stood my ground to make him realize I was not backing down. “That’s not an answer Genevive.” I dropped my arms and walked closer to him. “I don’t have another answer for you Dean . You’re worried about Sam, furious at Henry Carver, worried about the Hybrid and still have to question the Luna. And with your right hand man fighting for his life ,I can’t leave you alone right now. I won’t.” He wrapped his arms around me so fast that if he hadn’t been holding me I would have fallen back. “Thank you Genevive.” He pulled back and worry was written all over his face. “I still don’t want you involved.” “Dean…” “It’s not just about you. If you get involved your coven is involved.” “If Henry is making Hybrids I’m already involved. This is everyone's problem, not just yours.” We were still holding each other and Goddess knows I didn’t want to let go. What was happening? The coldness of his body felt refreshing. I usually don’t like coldness but his was perfect. His gaze was locked with mine, we weren’t moving from our spot. I wasn’t nervous about being in the middle of a hallway clinic. Or that anyone could see us. His smell, his lips , his heart beat . Everything was so inviting. I noticed his breathing began to get faster, and his jaw clenched. His eyes lowered to my lips and he licked his. Is he going to kiss me? Oh Goddess please make him kiss me. He lowered his head slightly and I didn’t move letting him know he was more than welcome. Then he got closer , this time I moved closer to him. I felt his breath on my lips and his eyes found mine again.
