Logan's POV

A knock on my bedroom door made me snap my attention from staring at Eva to whoever was on the other side.

We were currently in our old room in the pack house since it was safer and better to be nearer to everyone, espically Alexis and Dr.Mitchelle.

"Yes?" I answered so I went back to playing with Eva's hair.

"Alpha, it's me, Dr.Mitchelle. I have to blood test results." Dr.Mitchelle replied.

I quickly hoped off the bed and went to open the door.

Alexis was standing with him and they both had worried looks on their faces.

"What are the results? Is Eva okay?" I asked as soon as our eyes met.

Dr.Mitchelle sighed. "She was drugged. It weakened her and dulled her powers and senses."

I growled angrily.

It then hit me. Was that why she couldn't use her Gumiho powers when we were held captive?

"But that's not the problem." Dr.Mitchelle continued.

I looked at him in confusion.

"There are only faint traces of the drug in her system. She was supposed to be up hours ago." He stated.

I felt pain reside in my heart. I had hoped that she was like that because of something they gave her but since this wasn't the case, the worst case scenarios started playing in my head.

"Did you try to wake her up Logan?" Alexis asked.

I nodded. "I tried but she wouldn't respond." I said, my voice cracking at the end.

"I have a theory but I don't know if it's right or not." She stated hesitantly.

I ushered with my head for her to continue.

"I believe her soul is searching for the pearl." She said.

I furrowed my eyebrows at her, my confusing increasing by the second.

"How?" I asked as I gave her my full attention.

"Gumihos are really powerful, they have the ability to detach their souls from their bodies. I think that Eva sent her soul to search for her pearl and she'll be back when she wants to." Alexis explained.

"Does this impose any threat on her?" I asked, afraid of the answer.

"No, but if she went too far her soul might get lost and not come back."

I sucked in a breath and ran my fingers through my hair.

God please, lead her soul back.

Eva's POV

I woke up with a jolt, my heart beating loudly in my chest and my breaths ragged. It felt as if I was holding my breath under water for hours.

I felt something heavy on my hand and as I looked to the side, I smiled at Logan's sleeping face.

His eyebrows were furrowed and he didn't seem comfortable in his half sitting position.

I reached over and kissed between his eyebrows to cease the one hundred and one that was formed.

He stirred slightly but didn't wake up.

"Logan." I called and shook him.

He stirred again and held my hand tighter but his eyes remained closed.

"Logan." I called again in a singy song voice.

Suddenly, his eyes snapped open and he looked around like he was searching for something.

His eyes caught mine and all he did was stay still and stare.

He rubbed his eyes then opened them again like he didn't believe that I was actually looking back at him.

"Eva? Eva!" He yelled and in a matter of seconds I was squished between his arms.

I giggled as he kissed my face all over.

"How are you feeling? Are you okay? Does it hurt anywhere?" He asked all in one breath.

"Logan calm down. I'm fine." I assured him with a wide smile.

He sighed deeply then pulled me back into his chest.

"Thank God. I was so worried. You've been out for three days, I thought I-I lost y-you." His voice broke at the end making my heart break with it.

I pulled back slightly and cupped his face. "I'm sorry. I'm here now and I'm okay, I promise."

He nodded silently.

"Logan." I called.

"Hmm?" He hummed and opened his eyes.

"I remember." I stated.

He gave me a confused look.

"Is remember when we met ten years ago." I explained.

His eyes widened and a smile broke onto his lips.

"You do?" He asked.

I nodded in confirmation.

"So you believe me when I tell you that I owe you my life." He stated more than asked with a wide grin on his face.

I grinned back at him and opened my mouth to reply when a knock on the door snapped our attention to it.

"Alpha." Jake called from behind the door.

Logan pecked my lips softly. "I'll be right back." He said then got up from his place and went to open the door.

"We have some Intel avout Maxwell's whereabouts. They're not very legit but it's worth searching." I heard Jake say.

I gasped lowly. They're searching for Maxwell?

I didn't hear what Logan told him and soon, he was closing the door and heading towards me.

"Logan, why are you searching for Maxwell? It's dangerous." I told him as I felt my eyes glaze over.

Just remembering what happened when we were captured stroke fear into my heart.

Not only that, but the fact that I wasn't able to do anything made me feel even more weak and powerless.

And to top it all, I lost my pearl. That was certainly the cherry on top.

"Don't worry baby, it'll be okay. We'll be prepared this time." Logan said as he cupped my face.

I shook my head as the tears started flowing.

"No, you'll get hurt. You don't have to do this."

"Yes I do! He has your pearl Eva and without it you'll die!" Logan yelled.

He sighed then placed his forehead on mine.

"I can't lose you Eva, not after I have finally found you. I can't." He whispered, his voice filled with hurt and pain.

"We have leads on his whereabouts, I'll take a lot of men with me and we'll get you your pearl back." He said as he pulled away slightly and give me a reassuring smile.

He was so set on finding Maxwell and no matter what I do or say, he won't back off.

I nodded begrudgingly even though every fibre in me was screaming for me to hold him and never let him go on his suicide mission.
