Chapter 103
37 Truth and Acceptance
Calliope POV
My body feels heavy and I’m surrounded in darkness. “Aurora”, I call out to her and after a few minutes she answers. “I’m here with you Calliope. I would never leave you.” “Where is here?” She chuckles “you are in the hospital. We fought off five vampires and lost a lot of blood.” “So, we aren’t dead. ” This time she laughs out loud. “Do you really think that I would let us die after we just found our mate?” My heart sinks at her words. “Aurora, I want our mate as much as you do but he is broken after all that has happened.” “That which is broken can always be fixed even if it has to be done piece by piece. I know that you are hurt by all he said because we are one in the same, but I know that we are strong enough to fix our mate’s heart. Are you ready to wake up and be the bad a** I know you are?” I smile to myself. I’m so grateful for my wolf. She is amazing and I’m so glad that the goddess blessed me with her. “As long as you are with me Aurora, I am ready to do anything.” She gives a low growl of approval. I hear a faint beeping that seems to be getting stronger. I try to pry my eyes open, but they feel so heavy. I feel a hand on my face but there are no tingles. Who the hell is touching me?
a hospital with pure white walls. My eyes land on a figure sitting next to my bed staring at the floor. It takes me a few minutes to focus on his face. When I finally do, I smile. “Oliver, have you been sitting here since they brought me to the hospital?” “Cali, you scared the sh*t out of me.” “How long have I been here?” “It’s only been a few hours. I can’t believe you took down five of those vampires by yourself.” He leans forward and pulls me into a hug. A growl that could shake the walls makes him step back from me. My eyes land on Eli standing in the doorway. His eyes are black and I watch him take a few deep breaths. What the hell was that about?” “Alpha Eli, my mate is a man, remember. Calliope is my best friend, nothing more.” Eli nods and Oliver turns back to me. I’m going to go call Anthony. I nod and he leaves the room. “How are you feeling” he asks. “Like I fought five vampires.” I notice he doesn’t laugh and he has a pained look on his face. He walks over to the chair that is next to my bed. “Can we talk Calliope?” “Of course, we can.” He takes the seat and I wait for him to speak.
but the bigger part of me was afraid to accept you because I could lose you.” My heart squeezes in my chest. Could he really want to be my mate?
Eli POV
to talk with us, I promise myself that I will be completely honest with her. When she asks if I still love Clara, there is only one answer that is truthful. “I will always love Clara. She was an amazing mate and she gave me my beautiful daughter.” I see understanding in her eyes. I’m grateful she isn’t angry or hurt by my words. “Calliope, the love I have for Clara is different now. I’m no longer in love with her as my mate. Our bond was broken by her death and when she came to me while you were unconscious, she helped me let go of my guilt for wanting to take you as my mate. You are my mate and
of becoming a Luna.” Silas relaxes and I just smile. “How would you like to handle the pack situation, Alpha.” She smiles and before I know what’s happening, she is trying to stand from the bed. A throat clears and the doctor shoots a glare at Calliope. “I believe your supposed to be in bed, Alpha Calliope.” I chuckle at her getting in trouble and she looks at me rolling her eyes. She sits down and swings her legs back into bed. “Doctor, I’m fine. Aurora has completely healed me.” She pulls up her gown, exposing her creamy white skin. I’m sure my eyes darken and a low growl escapes me as I look at her body. “Alpha, maybe you should step out into the hallway while I examine my patient.” This time she chuckles and I do what the doctor asks. Once I’m in the hallway, I lean against the wall. I feel lighter knowing that she isn’t going to reject me. I link Larisa to bring me Faith to the hospital. I want to spend time with my mate and pup. We will figure out the details
