Chapter 75: Book Two- Her Alpha Savior- Chapter Twenty-Seven

Chapter Twenty-Seven

Max

When I came back to check on Josie, I found out she was asleep and I didn’t want to leave her, so I made myself as comfortable as possible in the chair since I knew I would be here for a while and I found myself talking to her even though I knew I wouldn’t’ get a response, I just couldn’t help myself. My wolf needed to be close to his mate, and I couldn’t resist when I saw her laying there in that bed fast asleep.

It’s a good thing she was asleep too because I found myself mentioning the fact that she was my mate and how I would spend forever trying to make it up to her for everything that has happened to her recently and how I feel responsible.

I know that I am not technically responsible, but I can’t help the way I feel. A part of me feels that if maybe I kept a closer eye on who did this, then maybe it wouldn’t happened. I will spend forever making it up to her, and I will make it up to her. And if she won’t let me then I will spend forever trying. She is my mate after all.

“How is she doing?”

I turn at the sound of the voice in the doorway and see Sarah coming back in with bags of food, I’m assuming the food is for her and Josie.

“She is asleep, and a good thing too because the way I was talking a minute ago, she would have found out everything.”

“Max, you don’t need to worry, she will accept you. She needs you just as much as you need her. You guys will get through this.”

“I hope your right Sarah. I don’t know what I would do if she rejected me.”

“Max, she isn’t going to reject you. You didn’t hear this from me but lately she has been acting different the last couple weeks. Like she is starting to show interest in you.”

I perk up that statement. I can’t help but feel hopeful at Sarah’s words.

“You think so? You really think I might have a chance?”

“Of course, I do max. She has been putting more effort into getting ready in the mornings and she thinks I haven’t noticed but when we are at school wandering the halls or going from class to class, I notice she is looking around more, like she is looking for something or…someone.”

I can’t keep the smile off my face. I turn back to look at Josie and she looks so adorable sleeping. She is so much smaller than I am, she would fit perfectly under my arm with her tiny stature, and I can’t wait to see what her curves feel like in my hands. Those are going to be nice. Then I remember where I am, and I need to get my mind on other things otherwise I am going to have a problem standing in a bit when I need to leave.

“Here. Since she is asleep you might as well eat something, I can get something for her later, if she wakes up at all.”

She hands me a to go container of food and I open it up and take a deep breath, it smells delicious, and I reach for the fork she hands to me and dip into the pasta and veggies.

“I really hope she wakes up tomorrow and notices right away. I don’t know what I would do if she doesn’t recognize me as her mate. How would I even go about telling her?”

“Don’t worry Max, she will recognize you. She has a wolf in there somewhere. You’ll see. Don’t worry. Maybe her wolf is a bit delayed, there are those few wolves that don’t get their wolves until they are eighteen. Maybe she is just one of the few.”

“Yea, your right. I guess just with everything that has happened, I worry about her. I need to protect her. Especially right now when she doesn’t have her wolf yet.”

“Yea, I know what you mean. What are you going to do about Tiffany and her friends? Have you thought about the punishment yet?”

I shake my head and look at Josie.

“I have a couple ideas, but I want to talk to Josie about it first. I want her to have some say in what happens since it happened to her, especially since she will be Luna one day.”

“I get that. Well, I’m going to head home, I’ll come by tomorrow and see Josie. You need anything before I head out?”

“Naw, I’m okay, thank you Sarah. I’ll stay with her tonight. Being near her helps keep my wolf calm.”

I’ll sneak out at some point tonight and go grab her some flowers and balloons for tomorrow.”

She gives me a nod of her head and turns to walk out the door. I sit with her and continue to talk to her while I eat, I tell her about what life will be like for us and I tell her about all the trips I want to take on and I even tell her what our room looks like and if she isn’t happy with it I will let her change it in any way she wants no matter how girly she makes it I would be happy with it. I also tell her how she needs to get better so I can take her home. The nurse and doctor come in an out a few times while I’m still awake to check on her and the doctor doesn’t seem to be too worried about her healing process, she seems to think that her wolf will show up when she is ready. After a while I start to feel sleepy too. I try to make myself comfortable in the chair that I’m in.

I prop myself back in the chair and lay my head back. I just want to rest my eyes for a minute, and I’ll go get her some flowers and balloons. Tomorrow is my little mate’s birthday after all. Before I know it, I’m drifting off to sleep dreaming of my little mate and what our life will be like once we get to be with each other forever and dreaming about what tomorrow could be like.
