Chapter 366

I loved how Griffin worried for me about being confronted with pack. business. It was just like him. At first, I fought it he always was so worried about me and tried to shelter me from it all. When we first started to get to know each other, I figured it was because he didn’t trust me. In my mind him being so protective of me was because like most of the wolves in my life had before he saw me as weak, unable to handle things.
I learned that it was not like that, all he wanted to do was to keep me safe. Not because he felt like I needed it. But because that is just how he shows his love. And how could I ever refuse to feel loved by this man?
He was partially right about this one too. While I would hate not being in the loop. Knowing David had escaped worried me. More than anyone, else I knew exactly what the man was capable of and that was enough to scare me. Hannah being pregnant with David should not bother me at all. It was not like I wanted to be with David anymore and I still hated Hannah. The last thing I should do is pity the she– wolf that made my life into a living hell. Yet I could not help myself, I still wanted to raise a family with Griffin. Becoming a mother should be the most beautiful thing on this earth.
The moment that you’re no longer just a couple but finally become a family. Needing to go through all of that alone must be horrible. But to think it was because David used her, and wanted nothing to do with her

because he honestly was insane must be even worse. Now she is
imprisoned, I don’t know when her trial is or when her punishment will be. But it must be terrifying to be in a prison cell. And even if I knew it was out of selfish reasons. Because she wanted David for herself. She did help me while I was in that dungeon.
I kept thinking of ways to help her when as I snuggled up in the bed. It didn’t take long for me to fall into a peaceful sleep even with all the worries on my mind. All because of Griffin’s presence next to me, it was so warm and soothing and it made me feel so safe.
“It is good to see you again my dear?” I whirled around at the now familiar face of Selene.
If I was seeing the Moon Goddess that only meant one thing. I had died or slipped back into a coma.
“Don’t be scared you are still sleeping I just wanted to say my goodbye” She reassured me.
It did feel different than the last time I was here, it felt like I had little control over this body. Like I was tethered to somewhere else and I was just visiting her.
And it was not like I didn’t have things I wanted to tell Selene. No. matter how happy I am that I am back with Griffin and the rest of my life. Getting there was a struggle after she told me herself that I had

suffered enough at the hands of her mistakes.
“You could have said goodbye before, you could have also told me how to get back to my body and not let me struggle likę I did” I snapped at
her.
For some reason the previous conversations we had made me feel more like Selene was a close friend. One you could get mad with if there was a good reason for it. Without the fight meaning a falling out.
“I understand you feel tha
way my child, but you were the one that had to make that decision. To leave everything be, just focus all of your inner strength, all of your willpower on getting back. Not because you needed to, not because you were expecting the picture–perfect life when you got back there. No, because you knew life would never be perfect. Becausé knowing that you chose to be with Griffin because you knew that all the good would outweigh all the bad. Having me present to answer all your questions would have been nothing than a hindrance.” Selene explained and strange enough it made sense.
“You will fully heal, and you and Griffin will have a wonderful life. I promise you because being with your true mate means you accept my blessings. All of them” With those parting words the world seemed to shimmer and shake as the heavenly valley disappeared around me.

Hours later I woke up from an otherwise dreamless sleep. Or at least nothing worth remembering. When I did wake up my throat felt a lot better. Griffin was still tapping away at his laptop. And I can only imagine how behind he got on his work while searching for me. It’s weird still not knowing so much of what happened from the moment I got kidnapped until this very moment. I had only been out of my coma for a few hours. Most of those hours I had spent sleeping but it was what the doctor advised and for the first time in my life, I wasn’t going to be stubborn. Deep down I was scared of the consequences it seemed miraculous I had come out of it all with no permanent damage.
Or at least not physical I have no idea how I will feel once I am able to get out and about again. And I tried not to think about it either. I needed to focus on getting physically healthy again. The next step was to shift again. I had missed Willow and not being able to shift for so long is terrible for both our human and wolf form. So the only way I would be completely healed is after shifting and letting Willow roam free again:
“Oh, Darling you’re awake, are you feeling hungry” Griffin had
obviously noticed I was awake even if I just laid still wrapped up in my thoughts.
With wanted to see him smile again, and with my throat feeling so much better. I wanted to do something nice for him.
“I am more hungry for some snuggling with my wonderful mate,” I told
him.

This time able to talk without getting another coughing fit. The doctor told me that with my werewolf healing. My throat would need to feel better within a few hours and it was another thing she was right about.
Griffin rushed to get the laptop off his lap, pulling me into his lap, in the spot where his laptop had just rested. Being in his arms again felt right, it made me feel strong like I could overcome everything the universe still had in store for me.
I wanted to kiss Griffin, tangle my hands in his her, and pull him closer to me. Sure I was still exhausted and could probably not do much more. than just kissing him. But I would be fine with that. I just wanted us to feel close, I wanted to show him my love and for us wolvés, there is no way to better show your love than being physical. To say I was surprised and a little disappointed when Griffin pulled me into his chest, hugging me instead of kissing me was an understatement.
