Ace’s POV

My brothers and I pace outside of the hospital room. We were kicked out of the room for taking up too much space. I keep glancing into the hospital room. Doctors and nurses are running to and from her bed with different pieces of medical equipment. I have to keep looking away.

Erica looks gray as she lies in the hospital bed. She has lost so much b***d that she will need a b***d transfusion. The only problem is they can’t find anyone that is a match for her. Her b***d type is so incredibly rare that the hospital hasn’t seen it before.

Suddenly an idea pops into my head. I burst into the hospital room and all of the nurses and the doctor looks at me in shock.

“Alpha, you will have to wait outside,” one of the doctors says to me with panic written across his face.

“I have an idea,” I yell as one of the nurses tries to push me back out of the room. “You can use our b***d! We are her mates.”

The doctor pauses for a moment as he thinks. “It just might work,” the doctor finally says. “Come in here.”

Rushing into the room, I roll up my sleeve. The nurse sets me down on a set and quickly finds a vein in my muscular arm. She hands me a squishy ball and tells me to squeeze the ball slowly. She hooks the other end of my line to Erica’s IV. I squeeze the ball in my hand and I can feel the b***d slowly leaving my arm.

After a few minutes the alarms on Erica’s machines begin to shut off one by one. I look up to see my brothers looking in through the hospital door with a relieved look on their faces.

“Alpha,” one of the nurses approaches me quietly. “You have donated all the b***d that you safely can to your mate.”

“Was it enough?” I ask cautiously.

“It appears to be,” the nurse offers me a small smile. “But if she needs more, I am assuming your brothers will be more than willing to donate as well.”

The nurse removes the line from Erica’s IV and from my arm before she waves my brothers into the room.

Bryce and Ace try to enter the room at the same time, shoving one another as they try to get in the room before the other one.

“That was fast thinking,” Bryce tells me. “Thank you for saving our mate.”

We all look down at our mate. She is still pale but she is no longer that grayish color that she was before. The steady beep of her machine lets us know that she is okay.

“We should probably go home and get some sleep,” I say knowing damn well that none of us are leaving this room until Erica does.

Bryce and Chris look at one another and I laugh. “We aren’t leaving until she does,” they say at the same time.

“I figured as much,” I say to my brothers. “I am not leaving either.”

A knock at the door catches our attention. We look up and see that Beta Aaron and his mate Evelynn are standing in the doorway.

Bryce rushes to their side and pulls them in for a hug. It is the first time that any of us have ever hugged the Beta or his mate. They stand there stunned as they pat Bryce awkwardly on the back.

“Alpha’s,” Beta Aaron nods his head to us as he enters the room and moves to his daughter’s side.

“Beta Aaron,” we say in unison.

“What happened to her?” Evelynn asks quietly. “We just got a call from your father saying that Erica was in the hospital and it was safe for us to return.”

“She totally kicked the Alpha’s a*s from the West Pack,” Bryce says excitedly.

“But then his son pulled a silver knife on her,” Chris chimes in as he moves away from Erica’s side so she can be next to her daughter.

“Is she going to be okay?” Evelynn asks as she takes her daughter’s hand in her own.

“Ace, here was thinking quicker than the doctors and saved her life,” Chris claps me on the back of the shoulder.

“Thank you for saving my daughter’s life,” Beta Aaron says softly.

“She means a lot to us,” I tell the Beta.

“I heard she is your mate,” Beta Aaron growls slightly. “She is a mate to all of you.”

“Yes,” I admit. “She belongs to all of us.”

“Well, that is new,” Evelynn laughs. “You all hated each other as children.” Evelynn seems to be more okay with the situation than her mate is.

Beta Aaron clears his throat awkwardly. “Have you marked our daughter?”

We all turn our heads to the side and show them the glowing mark that is on our necks. Evelynn gently moves her daughter’s head to the side and looks at the glowing crescent moon that is shining brightly on her neck.

“Well that is different,” Evelynn says as she gently grazes her hand over her daughter’s neck.

The light touch on Erica’s mark seems to bring her out of her slumber. Her beautiful blue eyes begin to flutter open. “Mom? Dad?” She whispers hoarsely. Then she closes her eyes and mumbles something about dreams.

“We are here, Sweetheart,” Evelynn says as she strokes her daughter’s hair out of her face.

Erica’s eyes fly open at the sound of her mother’s voice and she sits up in the bed wincing in pain. Evelynn gently pushes her daughter back down onto the bed.

“Mom, you can’t be here,” Erica says with tears in her eyes. “It isn’t safe for you.”

“Apparently someone killed the Alpha of the West Pack and found out who framed us,” Beta Aaron says as he looks at the three of us.

“I did it,” Erica says as she drops her head back to the pillow behind her. “I set you free.”

“Yes you did, Baby,” Beta Aaron says with pride in his voice. “You saved us. You and your mates.”
