The Night Wolf novel Chapter 67

Willow rushed out with them, trying to talk to Melody, but she got no response.

JR laid the other Willow down on the infirmary bed. Melody stood on the other side and held tightly onto the other Willow's limp hand.

Willow didn't listen to what they were talking about she just stared at the whimpering girl lying on the bed, as if she had been wounded badly.

Willow could make out few words from Melody, her saying that it was all going to be alright.

"Hunter." Sobbed the girl lying on the bed. "Please don't leave me."

Willow was taken aback, why would the other her call out for Hunter of all people. She couldn't believe why she would do that, Willow blamed it on the huge crush she used to have on Hunter, but she still couldn't make out why the other her would call out for Hunter as if he was the one who afflicted the pain on her.

Soon the nurse called a doctor.

"I'm sorry dear, but Willow doesn't have long to live." Said the doctor.

Willow was shocked. Even Melody, kept on denying the truth asking the doctor if he was joking.

Then the doctor said something about her being rejected and the only way for her to live was if she was accepted by her mate.

Willow couldn't make out why this would be happening now, she was sure that she hadn't met Rowan around this time.

"Can't we call her mate?" Melody asked JR.

"I'll call him."

Willow continued staring at the sobbing Willow who called out for Hunter every now and then, asking him not to leave her.

While JR was trying to make Hunter come here. He said something about how Willow is going to die if he doesn't.

Even Melody asked Hunter to come. She even begged Hunter to come. Willow had never heard Melody beg before, she had her pride which never let her.

Hunter in the end listened to none as he hung up the phone.

They took her over to Melody's home. JR and Melody stayed up all night waiting for the other Willow to wake up, but she didn't.

The other Willow's breath started ceasing, till her chest moved no more, when the sun hit the sky again.

"I guess." Said Willow.

Rowan cupped her cheeks. "Do you want me to sleep with you?"

Willows lips parted as a blush crept up her cheeks. "I-"

"I don't mean in that way, I'll sleep on the couch."

Willow wondered if she made him take the couch then the members of Rowan's Harem would really bury her alive but if she'll make him share a bed with her, wouldn't that make them angrier, if they were to find out?

"No," said Willow, as her cheeks reddened more than it already was. "You can actually. You don't have to sleep on the couch."

"Oh, okay." Willow stared at Rowan through her lashes to find that he was flustered. Willow's heartbeat quickened.

Even though they hug normally and kiss every now and then, Willow still felt that sleeping on the same bed, even with their clothes on, was like taking their relationship to the next level. It felt much more intimate.

"Come on." Rowan pulled Willow along with her. "I'm expecting a bedtime story."
