I am pulled from nothingness by a sharp stabbing pain in my chest. My eyes hurt and I blink furiously to clear my vision. I lift my head up and realize I am in Ayla’s bed. She lays next to me, legs crossed, but it’s like her front half toppled over. I see a faint whisp of white hair blowing in front of her face with each breath she takes so I know she is okay, which doesn’t help my confusion any. I turn my head to the left and see that Cyrus is asleep against the wall across the bedroom. I reach my hand out and trace my fingers up the blue see through wall that seems to be cocooning me.
“Cyrus.” Damn my throat is raspy. I have a new respect for little wolf. “Cyrus. Wake up.” “Huh what, get back here girl we ain’t finished.” he says sleepily. Ugh. I will have to power wash that wall if he is having a sex dream on it. “Cyrus, you dip shit wake up.” I say a little louder attempting to not wake little wolf. He bolts awake looking at me like he just won the lottery. “Holy shit, it worked. How do you feel?” “What worked? I have a damn headache. I feel like I was hit by a truck and dragged around the pack.” “I see you are your grumpy self again after your poiscation.” “My what?” “Poiscation. You were poisoned and took a four–day nap.” I blink at him taking in what he just said. “Poison? That can’t be right.” “Yeah, after you ate your elevator meal, you passed out on your girl. Turns out you were poisoned. Don’t worry, I have it narrowed down to the mess hall. New guy gave Janet pack transfer papers and job assignment. They were fakes. Can’t find him.” “I look over again at little wolf and how uncomfortable she looks. “Poison. Got it. Why am I stuck inside a glowing blue bubble?” “Oh that. Your girl doesn’t have a weaponized pussy, but she has a shield she can weaponize. Took out Della and kept you from the world these past few days. She flung my ass into the wall with it. Wouldn’t let anyone near you except for the experimental cure I injected you with. You’re welcome by the way.” “If you mention her and her pussy in a sentence again, I will cut your dick off so you will never experience putting it in one again.” “Chill out okay. Geez. I am glad you’re awake. You got to talk her into taking care of herself and not you. She stayed awake the hole time, rambling about holding onto the mate bond to keep you from dying or some shit. She just keeled over on herself a few hours ago. Apparently holding a bubble and holding you from the great beyond is exhausting.”
I turn back to little wolf with a sense of awe. She held on and she kept me safe. Whether or not it is true or Cyrus crap I don’t know, but the giant bubble around me makes it more believable. I roll to my side and swipe that wild hair behind her ears and take in the

puddle of drool under her half open mouth. Fates she’s out cold. I reach my arm under hers and pull her up towards me and put her head on my chest. She barely stirs during
the movement but settles in nicely as I wrap my arms around her. I don’t know how we
left things really, but I know that she saved my life and that has to count as something. Hopefully more than a ‘hey now were equal‘ action. Hopefully, an acceptance of our bond.
Taking out Della? I don’t even know where to start with that.
