I gasped awake, shooting up in bed and noticing that I was in a clear white room that resembled my pack hospital. My chest felt tight while I blinked against the darkness in the room, curious about why it was so dark.

It felt like I was in a dream but everything felt so real and painful. My arm felt like it was broken which was strange since wolves heal fast, especially me. The Alpha of my pack.

I rubbed my eyes with my good hand and looked around the room to see if anyone was in here.

My parents were nestled up against the couch in the corner of the room, looking dreadfully worried about me when I searched for Faye or Xenon. Both the women that plagued my mind every second of the day.

The last thing I remember was seeing Faye hovering above me, her face horrified by something before she moved away from something... falling?

Right.

There was a fire and I was looking for Xenon but... was it Xenon I saw or did I imagine it was Faye?

Am I going crazy for both these women or something?

I am so confused about what happened, and trying to remember was hurting my mind and causing my body to stress a little bit. It hurts to try and recall any memory of that night but I needed to know what happened.

Scanning the room, I tried to find my phone but it seems like none of my things were around making me sigh and quietly get out of bed now on a quest to find my phone or a phone to call Xenon.

Luckily I memorized her number just for a situation like this... and because I'm obsessed with her.

She would have the answers about what happened that night whether she wanted to speak with me or not. But I needed to know what happened, to know if she was okay.

Silently, I left the room without alerting my parents and carefully closed the door behind me. I was stunned in shock about who was sitting down on the ground across from my hospital room.

"X-Xenon...?" I question in disbelief when the hooded girl rose her head and looked up at me, clearly her face littered in bruises and burns. Her red eyes looking incredibly pale as she scrambled from the ground and leaned against the wall as if she was afraid of me.

What had happened...

It hurts my heart to see her like this when she is usually so strong in front of people but here she is just sitting here alone.

"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to be here. I'll be leaving." She tried escaping from me but I blocked her from leaving by resting my arm in her way. Her body seemed rigid and tense around me causing my chest to tighten drastically.

"Xenon... Have you clean up from last night? Are you alright? You don't look very well Xe-"

"Zavier... You've been in a coma for almost two weeks..." She confessed, looking over at me with a weak smile. "I'm glad you're awake. It's been a... rough couple of weeks without you. I have to leave. It'll morning soon and I'm not allowed around you anymore. Please don't make this harder then it already is." She pleads, sounding a little emotional as I stared at her in disbelief.

Two weeks...

Wait.

She isn't leaving me without explaining why.

Xenon slipped underneath my arm when I grabbed her shoulders out of reflex and stared down at her with conflicted eyes. She refused to look at me, her hood hiding her emotions from me while I softly grabbed her chin and tilted her chin up to look at me.

Her skin felt rough and harmed under my fingers while I felt the small p.r.i.c.kles of electricity go through our skin contact. It hurt me so badly to see her this way.

"I need an explanation. What is happening? Why are you acting this way?" I question, hopeless to answers as she smiled gently.

"I can't answer that. But don't expect me to come around much anymore. Faye has disappeared as well. And so will I. Ajax has been helping Alex run the pack... I'll still be around, but I won't meet up with you anymore and you will not have to deal with me anymore." She paused grasping my hand and pulling her chin away from my hand.

Her body posture and the way she was acting seemed very off. Like she was careful about what she does and says. It was very unlike her and this Xenon was freaking me out a little bit.

"If you ever need me to return. Just ask Ajax to contact me and I'll be here in an instant. But I am too dangerous right now "

I tugged her wrist toward my chest, causing her to stumble in front of me. Before she could realize what I did, I ran my hand through her hair making her look at me when kissing her.

She seemed very hesitant about the kiss while I gripped at her waist with my other hand, turning her into gelly. Her hands loosened on my arm and slowly hooked around my neck to dive deeper within the kiss.

I could feel she was trying to resist but the mate bond between us was pulling closer together and it was helping me in my favor. Her lips molded into mine as she dug her nails into the back of my neck, wanting more than I was giving her.

Before the kiss could go farther, the door to my hospital room opened revealing my worried parents. Xenon flung herself away from me, her eyes averting towards the ground when my mother rushed to my side.

Xenon's reaction horrified me but I couldn't ask why she did that when my mother grasped my face.

"Are you alright? Did that thing hurt you again? Don't worry honey. I'm here now." She a.s.sures, patting my face softly when my father growled lowly at Xenon darkly. His eyes s.h.i.+fting to a dark black that caused Xenon's body to go rigid.

"I told you to never come near my son! What do I have to do-"

"Dad! Don't be-"

"It's okay Zavier. Like I said. There are reasons why I can not stay here. All of this division, chaos, despair. It's because of me and I need to accept that by resisting my urges to murder people. I apologize. I just wanted to bid my goodbyes." She tells my parents when looking up at me once more. "Tueri cupio esse aliquando hominum totis viribus." She whispers to herself, something forming in her hands before she held two necklaces. Each of the necklaces having a different color but same charm.

One of the charms were deep red that was formed in a small planet that looked to s.h.i.+ne brightly like the color red in her eyes. The other charm was green that was a planet as well, matching the color of my eyes.

"Keep this. Maybe one day we'll see each other again." She held the red one out to me while I stared down at it and grabbed it from her. "If we are fated to see each other again. These charms will glow brightly whenever we are around. Maybe when the time is right. We'll meet again. Goodbye, darling." She nods to me, slipping the necklace around her neck before snapping her finger and disappearing.

The void that was within me returned when she disappeared from my vision. The small necklace the only thing to remind me by her.

〰 Xenon/Faye 〰

I teleported into the cabin, feeling my body weaken as I stumble towards the couch and dropped onto it. The scent of pasta filling the pain inside of me while my head throbbed from the lack of sleep.

My chest hurt so bad...

What was I going to do...?

How was I going to go through all of this without wanting to return?

Why does this world have to be so cruel...?

"Are you alright, Faye? What happened? Did those rat parents say some mean things to you again?" Claire, the brunette witch I saved, questions in a thick country accent when setting something down and walking over to me.

"He woke up," I mumble into the pillow and turned my face to look at her while she kneeled down beside me. "I was about to leave and he walked out. It was... so f.u.c.king painful." I admit, my eyes tearing up a little bit as she smiled sadly at me and patted my head softly.

"It'll be okay. You will get through this. I will be here every step of the way." She a.s.sures, her blue eyes comforting me as best as she could when I sniffed and smashed my face back into the couch pillow. "Now come on. You are going to eat something now because you haven't touched any kind of food in a long time." Claire rubs my shoulder before standing up.

"I don't wanna... I'm not hungry right now." I grumble. There was a moment of silence before she threw a water bottle at me making me yelp and fall off the couch. I sent a glare to Claire as she tossed another water bottle in her hand, watching me very carefully.

"I wasn't asking. Now come and sit down and eat this d.a.m.n meal I've made for you!" She yells at me when I groaned and dropped my head on the ground. "Come on. I promise it's not poisonous... This time." She mutters, the food she's made before caused me to have some stomach issues.

Slowly, I pushed off the ground and stood up from the cold ground when she smiled brightly and pulled out two bowls for the both of us. I plopped down into the chair as she bounced over to the table and set the bowl in front of me.

"It smells... Edible." I congratulate as she narrowed her eyes at me and turned away from me. The little ap.r.o.n on her twirling around her like she was a housewife.

"Just eat up. If it's bad then I'll have Alexandra order us take out... Again." Claire huffs wanting to be a great cooker but she honestly had no skill in the cooking world. Though I didn't care, I'd eat ever she made to make her feel better.

Taking a deep breath, I put the fork in my mouth the pasta waiting for the bitter taste to register but it never did. It actually tasted pretty good.

"This is actually good. Good job." I praise, munching on the pasta and tearing into the bread while she grinned happily.

"Thanks! It took a while to perfect it." She laughed, bringing her bowl to the table after she took the ap.r.o.n off when she sat down and tried it herself. "It needs a little more seasoning but I like the taste." Claire smiles happily as I nodded and ate some more pasta.

We stayed in silence, just enjoying the meal and quiet atmosphere. My thoughts started to wonder though. Curious about where and what Zavier was feeling, seeing if he was missing me or not.

I hope he wouldn't stay hung up.

Maybe he would find someone.

Maybe he would forget about me.

That thought broke my heart but I ignored the pain.

Hoping I could resist my feelings and protect him from afar.

Leaving the league will cause a lot of issues, but I will stay here and protect his happiness while I stood on the sidelines and encouraged him to be as happy as he could.

Zavier...

Please...

If you can hear this... don't come looking for me.

Be happy and forget about me.
