27 Chapter 27

　　Alpha Maximus

　　Alex and Bella sprint into our bathroom, hearing my screams and calls for help.

　　‘Bella! Get the doctor. Alex! Help me keep her in the water!’ I yell. Hope is thrashing around, trying to free herself from my grip. She’s hot to touch and the cold water isn't helping at all.

　　‘Stop the fire!’ She screams. ‘It burns!’ She yells.

　　‘What's wrong with her Alpha?’ Alex asks, concerned.

　　‘I don't know. I thought she had a fever, but the cold water isn't doing anything! I don't know what to do,’ I panic.

　　‘Kiss her!’ Alex says.

　　‘What?’ I ask, tilting my head.

　　‘When she was in her weird trance your kiss snapped her out of it,’ he explains.

　　I kiss her lips, and the moment I do, sparks fly through my body, and I know she feels them too. She stops thrashing around, and cups my face, not wanting us to part. Her tears drip onto my cheek. I hold her closer, and comfort her as much as I can, and we part. I caress her face, and she lies, exhausted, in my arms.
