Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 134
Ezra POV
I was replying and sending emails, when my neck started to burn. I looked down at Kat sleeping beside me, her head still on my chest when the burning grew so intense I rubbed my mark trying to stop the burning sensation when suddenly I felt deathly cold. Mateo jumps awake and gasps and I feel Kat’s skin lose its warmth against my skin. I roll her off yet she is unresponsive, black veins wriggling beneath her skin and her temperature falling and rising dramatically.
“Get Mathias” I tell Mateo, shaking Kat’s shoulders and I grip her chin.
“Kat?” I lightly tapped her cheek before putting my ear to her chest, yet I could hear the thudding of our babies chests, yet her heart suddenly stopped. I started chest compressions while I could see Mateo’s eyes glazed over. The veins moving and
reappearing and disappearing, the colour draining and recolouring her cheeks, her body going hot then cold. It was like she was in between dying and living and my mark was burning like someone was holding a blowtorch to it.
“Mathias is on his way, we need to get her downstairs” Mateo says, scooping her up in his arms and he starts running down the stairs. He places her on the ground when Mathias’ voice flits through my head.
“5 minutes out” He said and I could hear he is running to the packhouse. Mateo was a picture of calm as he started administering CPR. Maddox was pacing restlessly and growling in my head. Yet I could not tear my eyes from the dark veins littering her pale skin. It made no sense, why did it feel like she was stuck in between and why were our marks burning and Mateo and I weren’t affected by her, usually when she is injured we too are also injured for her to heal she takes it from us.
“Maybe it is internally, maybe it’s them,” Maddox suggests.
“The babies, they are Gemini babies aren’t they the Moon Goddess blessed them”
“I don’t get it” I tell him.
“I don’t know, what if they are distressed and then being like kat it’s hurting her” Maddox says just as I hear running on the gravel outside. I stand opening the door to see Mathias wolf carrying a black bag in his mouth. I take it from him and rush back inside and hear him shift behind me. I start opening the bag having no idea what I am doing while Mateo is still doing chest compressions.
“Lift her shirt” Mathias voice says beside me while he pours what smells like alcohol over his hands from a clear bottle from the bag. I lift her shirt revealing her stomach, veins running across it and moving beneath her skin.
“I think you may be right Mateo ” Mathias says, grabbing a scalpel making me look at Mateo who was solely focused on manually pumping her heart.
“Towels Ezra and lots of them, and then I need you to shift” He says and I get to my feet racing up the stairs to the linen cupboard. I grab handfuls of towels before laying some out beside Mathias. He takes one of the towels wrapping it around his waist before kneeling and grabbing the scalpel in his hand.
“We need Maddox to heal her, she won’t heal on her own once I get these babies out, shift Ezra” Mathias orders me and I obey him. Maddox was on edge severely and I was slightly nervous how he would react to someone cutting open his mate, but he trusted Mathias and stayed still patiently watching.
“Derrick is on his way, I mindlinked him” Mateo says and Maddox nods his fury head. I watch as he runs the scalpel over her stomach and Mateo makes a pained noise, Maddox howls as it feels like we are being cut into and Mateo’s shirt stains red. Looking down I was also bleeding on the floor.
