My whole body feels heavy, I imagine this is how it feels to get hit by a truck. I'm just so tired. I slowly open my eyes to see I'm in my bed.

Not even ten seconds later my little angel comes walking through my door like she owns the place. She haven't even realized I'm awake, but as soon as her eyes land on me her mouth drops open.

She runs up to me, jumping on my already tired body, but I welcome her with open arms "You're awake" she keeps repeating like she is trying to convince herself.

I try to speak but my throat is dry and hurts. When was the last time I had something to drink? I whisper to her "thirsty" and she nods.

"I have juice for you" she picks up a juice box and shakes it a bit... empty... Throwing it to the side. She picks up another one, also empty. By the time she gets to the 5th empty juice box she looks up at my shyly.

"You were asleep for a long time" she whispers to me tears forming in her eyes, while holding a bottle of water. I guess she drank all of my juice while I was asleep and now she only has water left. She should be glad I love her, she drank all my juice.

I take the water from her downing half the bottle. Luckily I remember the rogue attack and me shifting into my wolf, I just had to protect my mate. "How long was I asleep for baby girl" I look up at her, a tear sliding down her face "Two days" she mumbles.

Two days? Wow. Now I look at her properly "Your hair!" a big gasp left my mouth. "Does it look bad?" I look at her taking in her black and white hair "No, you could never look bad. What happened to it?"

"I don't know, I woke up like this the day after you shifted into wolfie." I love how she calls my wolf, wolfie. 'Me agree' someone else says, who said that? how do they know what I'm thinking?

'It's me, your wolfie. We have the best mate.' I can talk to my wolf now? This is awesome.

"Why are you looking like that?" I look up at her realizing I zoned out while talking to my wolf and she has been staring at me.

"I'm talking to my wolf, I can do that now." She looks at me with a big smile "I know it's amazing! It's like having someone to talk to all the time" she says excitedly "but they can get annoying sometimes" she whispers, like that would help. And she realize it didn't help because her eyes goes wide and she covers her mouth like she just accidentally said an adult word.

"You can talk to your wolf? You shifted? When?" I asked her shocked. Why isn't she as tired as me?

She looks up at me a little ashamed. "I didn't shift, but I can talk to my wolf, I've been able to since my hair turned white, I was so confused and scared at first" she says with a frown on her face but it is instantly replaced with a smile. "She is sooo nice! Her name is Ana."

Ana? I fits her so well! Does my wolf have a name? 'Can my name be Wolfie please, please, please. That's what mate calls me, it's perfect. She is so smart to think of that name.'

Wolfie? I don't think that is a real name or appropriate for an Alpha. 'Stop being dumb, it's perfect, it's perfect! Now give mate a hug! She smells so nice, like vanilla and strawberries, my favorite.'

I internally roll my eyes at him a guess Wolfie is fine, he really likes it and my angel will like it too, but I see what she meant by they can be annoying sometimes.

Although giving my angel a hug and holding her close does not seem like a bad idea. And he is definitely my wolf because I said the same thing about her scent.

I pull her close to me holding her in my arms while we talk about our wolves, and what they are like.

Apperently her wolf made an appearance after mine so we can understand each other better and that Wolfie won't be lonely being the only wolf his age, but she can't shift yet because she's not strong and big enough it will hurt her too bad, or at least that is what her wolf told her.

After a few hours of just laying in bed talking, an idea pops into my head. "Baby girl do you think we can mind link like big wolves now?"

She looks at me with big eyes, uncertain. So I close my eyes to concentrate 'Lana baby, can you hear me?' From the gasp leaving her mouth I know she heard me and it makes me so happy, we can mind link now.

She close her eyes to concentrate as well and it didn't take me long to hear her angelic voice in my mind 'I'm happy you're awake Lijah, I missed you'

So I pull her close to me kissing her temple tiredly. How did I sleep for two days and I'm still tired. Now I think I know why the high school kids are always sleeping, I just thought they were lazy, is this how they always feel? I will have to ask daddy if I will become weird like the high school kids now.

Not long after that my momma and daddy come into my room looking tired. When they see I'm awake their face lights up and momma starts crying. Daddy says women are more emotional and we have to respect that and comfort them. But he doesn't say it in front of momma, otherwise she will smack him upside the head.

"My baby, you're awake. I'm so happy you're fine and safe. How are you feeling? Are you okay?" my momma keeps rambling on asking questions. While my daddy gives me a kiss on the forehead ruffling my hair while I hold my angel in my arms.

It didn't take long for Belle to figure out I'm awake from all the noise coming from my room. She came storming in with big eyes, running to me and giving me a big hug, refusing to let me go.

I love my family.
