She Can't Be Your Mate novel Chapter 59

~Zane's POV~

The next morning I felt fine, I can't say the same for Devina. She woke up groaning.

"Ibuprofen?" I asked. She opened her eyes and they were red. "Sunshine let me help you. Please." She shook her head and went to get up but I gently pulled her back down. "No stay here," I ordered and headed off to the kitchen. I made some quick scrambled eggs and toast. Grabbing some ibuprofen and some water, I hurried back upstairs. "I didn't want to be gone for too long so I didn't make pancakes," I said coming into the room. Devina was standing up with her phone in her hand, looking as white as a ghost. "Sunshine? What's wrong?" Her phone was the first thing to drop, then she soon followed after. "Devina talk to me." Tears were streaming down her cheeks making me tear up a little. "Baby,"

"Everett called," She started, making me tense. Why was he calling her? When did he get her phone number? I tried to push these questions out of my mind and waited for her to continue. "Gillie and Henry were in-in a plane crash." She sobbed. "They're gone." I couldn't feel her exact pain because we aren't full mates, but I felt the pain for her.

"Come here." I pulled her into my arms and rubbed her back. "Shh, it's okay." She cried even more for a few minutes until she was too tired to continue. "It's going to be okay."

"This always happens. Things always go wrong. Everyone always-" I stopped her.

"No, I know what you're thinking. You aren't going to lose me Sunshine. Not ever." She fell limp in my arms, making me worry a little. I turned her around so she was facing me. She had a scary blank look on her pale face.

"Yes, I will. It's just a matter of time." She was right though, bad things do keep happening to her. Henry and Gillie were both apart of our pack so it was a loss for me too, they just weren't some of my best friends. She wasn't right, however, about me leaving her or her losing me. That's never going to happen. Even if it's what she wants.

"Do you want to eat?" I asked after a little bit. She just shook her head. "Come on, you should eat something Sunshine." She wiggled out of my arms and crawled back into bed. "I'll take that as a no," I mumbled. She curled up into a little ball and I heard her start crying again. "Sunshine, it's going to be okay." I hurried over to her side but she just got up and walked across the room away from me.
