Chapter 2

Dom's POV

(Wednesday)

"Tell me you didn't..."

"No I didn't have sex with Stef, if that's what you mean," I say angrily pacing back an forth, surely to leave footprints on my white carpet.

"Everything is going to be fine Dom there's no reason to worry, her parents just want to make sure she's ok."

"I should be the one making sure she's ok, but now she's with the fucking pack doctor!" I shout in a full-on rage.

My hands ball into fists.

I need to let this anger out or I'll explode.

"Dom you have to calm down."

"I can't fucking calm down dad!" I shout in his face.

"Anything could be happening to her right now, and I'm not there to do anything about it!"

I'm trying my best not to cry in front of my dad, the 'alpha'.

"Son, I know not being with her right now is killing you, but you still have to be strong for her. You and jay."

He places his hands on my shoulders, reminding me of when Stef had her hands in the same place while we were kissing. Fuck I miss her lips.

I don't know if it's because I'll be alpha soon that's making all of my emotion's and feelings ten times stronger or what but my heart hurts like hell right now.

I turn away from him.

"What am I supposed to do? I don't think I can be away from her any longer. I can feel jay take over my body as we speak." I say more to myself than to my dad.

"Well there is one thing we can do."

I look over my shoulder to look at he from the corner of my eye.

"What?"

"We can keep you contained until she's ready."

"Contained?"

"It will keep everyone safe, especially her."

"Fine." I agree walking past him and out of the room. He follows.

~~~

"So I just sit here?" I say motioning around the metal room and the metal chair I'm sitting in.

"Yeah, pretty much." Max says.

"This has to suck." He says running the back of his neck.

"Yeah, pretty much." I quote him.

He smiles and turns to walk away.

"Hey, when I get out of here, I want you to tell me all about her."

"Oh, I will." He assures.

Since last night I met Stef I've been so worried about her that I forgot that max met his mate that night too.

Jay~ this is going to be hell

"Your telling me." I say out loud.

~~~

Stef's POV

(Wednesday)

"Hey cupcake how are you feeling?" My mom asks sitting on my bed.

"I'm fine mom, where's Dom?"

I haven't seen Dom since before I blacked out at the party.

She doesn't answer. I start to panic.

"Mom. Where is he?!" I saying trying to sit up but my chest hurts too badly to force it.

"Your dad and I have agreed with alpha wright to wait and see if you get better for you and Dom to be together." She says, tears flowing from her eyes.

"What? If?" I cant, I don't know that to think.

"We talked to the pack doctor yesterday and..." Her tears won't stop now.

I'm confused.

"And what mom?" I say through pursed lips.

"And he said that you only have a 30 percent chance of living."

As soon as she said chance I burst into tears.

"He said with the transformation your lugs have collapsed even more, to far to be fixed."

I can't.

I just can't.

This was supposed to be the happiest moment of my life.

I have been waiting for my transformation day since the day I found out about my 'crap lungs' and now all it's done is make things worse.

I wanna scream, but I can't.

All I want right now is Dom.

All I need right now is Dom.

"Can I see him?" I ask my mom with shaky breaths.

~~~

Dom's POV

(Thursday)

I've only been in here a day and I've already managed to put twelve dents in the metal walls, and break the metal chair.

All I can think about is her.

The longer I'm not with her the worse it gets.

Jay has fully taken over now and is on a full on rampage.

I'm about to punch another dent into the wall when the metal door opens and my dad steps in.

He looks like he's seen a ghost.

"Dom we need to talk."

That can only mean the worst.

"What's wrong?" I ask coming back to myself.

"She's not doing to well...the doctor say's she only has a 30 percent chance."

My heart stops.

"What?"

"I'm so sorry Dom." He looks down at his feet.

"You said they we're just making sure she was ok!!!!!" I shout. My alpha voice coming out more than expected.

"I know son."

I can't hold it in, I fall back on my ass and break into tears.

I scream.

I yell.

I cry.

I wanna kill someone.

I gonna kill someone.

That's how angry I am.

Jay~ Dom.

Jay~ Dom!

Me~ what!

Jay~ what are you doing? You shouldn't be sitting here, you need to be with her.

I do, I need to be with her.

"I have to be with her, dad." I say fisting my hair in my hands.

"I know."

I look up at him and he has his hand outstretched to pull me up from the floor. I take it and stand up.

"I've called Mrs. Moore, she says that she's been asking about you." He says as we walk out of the metal room.

Knowing that she's been asking about me puts a smile on my face but doesn't help my aching heart.

~~~

My dad drives me to her house, not allowing me to drive myself due to my current state.

"Do you want me to stay?" He asks putting the car in park.

I shake my head.

I let out a shaky break and run my hands throw my hands through my hair.

"It's going to be fine Dom."

"But what if it's not dad?"

He doesn't answer.

"I'll call you later." Is all that is said before I climb out of the car and make my way to the front door.

I can smell her sent.

Maple syrup and vanilla.

I knock on the door three times.

Stef's dad opens the door and his eyes are blood red. I know mine are nothings pretty either.

"How are you Dom?" He asks inviting me in.

"Absolutely terrible sir." I manage a weak laugh.

I stuff my hands in my pockets.

"I'm so sorry Dom, this has to be absolute hell for you."

"Yeah it really is." I rake a hand through my hair

"Well I know she wants to see you." He says motioning to the stairs.

God I hate to think that when I go up those stairs it just might be the last time I see my her.

I slowly make my way up the stairs and to her room.

I remember when we where at her party how she didn't want me to see her room. She said it looked like a hospital.

It's a damn shame I have such few memories of her.

I knock twice.

No answer.

I slowly and quietly open the door.

She's a sleep.

Jay~ even beautiful when she sleeps.

I walk in and see what she meant by 'looks like a hospital'.

There monitors and wires everywhere.

I wanna cry at the sight of her but I hold myself together as best as possible.

I sit in the chair placed next to her bed.

Me~ can you hear Michelle?

Jay~ yeah

I need to talk to her, I have to talk to her.

"Stef. Stef can you hear me?"

No answer.

She can't be...

God if she's...

"Stef."

"Stef please."

"I'm trying to sleep mom." She whispers as she stirs in her sleep.

"Stef it's Dom babe wake up."

I rub circles on her arm.

"Dom?" She turns over to look at me.

"Dom!"

She wrapped her arms around my neck.

I take the time to to take in all of her.

Her sent.

Her touch.

Her so soft hair.

And all of her perfectness.

"I've missed you so much Stef."

"I've missed you too Dom."

We just sat there hugging it each other for a couple of minutes.

"Dom, I don't know how much time I have left but..."

I cut her off.

"Shh, don't talk like that just come with me." I say kissing her forehead.

Her and I both know that she's in pain, but I have to see something.

"Ok."

~~~

I take her outside.

"What are we doing out here?"

"Just take off your clothes." I say beginning to strip.

"What?"

"We're going for a run."

"Dom I couldn't make the full transition. It almost crushed my lungs."

"In life there are people who are given a second chance at life even when they don't deserve it, and then there are people who do or don't get second chances but deserve them. Stef you deserve a second chance at life, and we have to find out if you've been given one."

"Your right." She says turning around to take off her shirt.

"Don't look." She says wiggling out of her rainbow pajama shorts.

All she has left on is black bra and purple panties.

I know this is not the time but fuck she is something else.

She turns back around and I still have my hands on my sweatpants ready to take them off but I just can't help sit and just stare at her.

"Eh hem." She clears her throat.

"Right." I take off my pants leaving me in my boxers with clouds on them.

"What if I can't do it?" She asks concern clear in her voice.

"You just have to believe in yourself and Michelle like jay and I do, right now jay is telling Michelle that she can do this and I'm doing the same."

I plant a lingering kiss on her forehead

She nods.

"You can do this!" I yell as I start to run.

(Crack)

(Crack)

I hear my bones stretch and change position.

~~~

Stef's POV

(Thursday)

Dom takes off running, I can hear his bone cracking from here.

He jumps in mid-air and lands on four paws.

His wolf is huge! With brownish blonde fur, eyes deep like sea of water filled with an abyss of black in the middle, and very fit.

All the same features when his in human form.

'You can do this Stef' Plays in my head as I take off running.

(Crack)

(Crack)

Here we go again.

My breath starts to hitch up. I gasp for air.

No...no I have to do this!

I jump into mid-air.

~~~

Dom's POV

(Thursday)

She can do this!

She can do this!

I chant in my head as she starts running.

Fuck, she's slowing down.

God damn' it I know I was risking her life her, but I believe in her and I think she can do it.

She jumps into mid-air and lands on four paws.

She did it!

She did it!

She runs towards me.

Her wolf is beautiful and just like her in every way.

All black fur, chocolate eyes, maple syrup and vanilla.

~~~

She looks at me as if saying 'I'll race you back.'

She takes off. I'll give her a head start.

When she gets almost halfway back to the house I take off.

Easily I run past her and make it back to our pile of clothes laying in the grass.

I focus in to mind link with her.

'Perks of being an alpha.'

'Oh yeah right I just wasn't really trying.'

'Yeah that's what it was.' I mock her.

She lays down in the grass.

'How do you feel?' I ask making sure she's ok.

'I feel amazing.'

'I knew you would.'

~~~

After a while of just sitting in the grass and talking we changed back to human form.

"Don't look Dom!" She yells as I try to get a peak at her now naked body from behind a tree.

I already have my pants and shirt back on.

"Are you done."

"Yes, I'm done." She says walking from behind the tree.

"Do you wanna tell your parents now or do you wanna wait until tomorrow?" I ask taking her hand in mine as we walk back into the house.

"It's 2:30 in the morning but I think they should know now."

"Before you tell them I have to ask you something."

"What is it?" She asks looking up at me.

"How would you feel about moving in with me?" I don't wanna rush things but I have to know.

"I mean like officially move in, like me, you, my beta, and his mate."

I'm so nervous asking her this right now.

"I thought you lived in the pack house?"

"Well yeah but my dad gave myself and my beta a house for us and the future Luna and mate of the the beta."

"Oh."

Just oh?

"I'd love to move in with you Dom." She squeals standing on her tipy-toes peaking me on the lips.

We go upstairs to her parents room.

She knocks lightly.

Her mother answers.

"Cupcake what's wrong? Is everything ok?"

"Everything is fine mom, I know it's late but we really need to talk to the two of you."

Her mother nods.

"Ok just give me a second to get your father up, we'll meet you in the kitchen."

"Ok."

We go back downstairs and wait in the kitchen.

"Coffee?" Stef asks me.

"Please."

By the time the coffee was done Mr. And Mrs. Moore where entering the kitchen.

"Enough for two more?" Mr. Moore ask's referring to the coffee.

"Yeah." Stef says getting four mugs from a cabinet.

We all sit down at the kitchen table and discuss everything...

And when I say everything I mean everything.

The events if tonight, Stef moving in with me, me becoming alpha, her becoming Luna, max being beta, his mate, school and...

"Sex." Mrs. Moore says causing both me and Mr.Moore to almost choke on our coffee.

"Dom I'm sure your father has already given you 'The Talk'?"

I clear my throat.

"Yes ma'am."

"Call me Karen." She smiles.

Once our discussion was over everything was settled, Stef will be moving in with me and max in a few weeks. Oh and whomever his mate is.

"I'll call my dad and tell him the news." I say excusing myself from the table.

I use my phone and dial my dad's number.

He answers on the fourth ring.

"Dom? Is everything ok?" He questions sleep clear on his voice.

"Everything's fine dad more then fine actually. I just had to call and tell you the news."

"Your not getting married are you?" He jokes.

"No dad we're not getting married, not yet at least." I grin
