It turned out we were in an old abandoned police department a few hours away from the border of Emmet's pack.

When we got in his house there was a doctor waiting for us. I was okay but Emmet needed blood transfusion unfortunately I couldn't give some of mine because I had silver in my blood too. He needed the blood so his body can start to heal. It will probably take a day or two but he will be just fine when he heals completely. Since I was relatively well all I needed was to rest and leave my body fight the silver alone. When everyone left I started cleaning his face from the blood. It was like he was so fragile I thought I was going to break him. I carefully cleaned the dry blood from his face and neck trying not to hurt him. He was still unconscious because his body was fighting the silver. He won't wake up until he heals completely.

I got him. He's finally here, in my hands. We're finally together. We don't know who our real enemy is but we are together.

After I cleaned his face I went to take a shower. My stomach was still hurting but I didn't mind the pain. The pain comes and leaves. I've gotten used to the pain. After all pain has been part of my life since I was little so nothing can hurt me for real. Except Emmet. The pain I felt looking at his covered in blood face was excruciating. I don't ever want to experience such a pain again.

I didn't have any clothes to sleep with so I put on one of Emmet's t-shirts. It was way too big for me but it smelled like him. The whole bed smelled like him it was as if I was in heaven.

For the first time I fall asleep happy and dreamed about food. Which is pretty normal.

**************

The next morning I woke up early. Changed into some of the clothes that Emmet took from my place when he kidnaped me. I went downstairs in the kitchen and made some breakfast for me. Emmet's not expected to wake up today so I didn't make him food.

After that breakfast I felt energetic. I think the silver is out of my body. I looked around the house for Emmet's phone and I found it on his desk then I called Jason because he is the only one from Emmet's pack that I know.

"Alpha?" Asked Jason.

"No, Jason it's me Katerina. I was hoping maybe you could show me where you keep the guy I asked you to lock up?"

"Are you sure? Wouldn't Alpha Emmet get mad when he finds out?"

"Don't worry he won't say anything I promise."

"Okay then I'll be in your house in a few minutes."

When he showed up I was ready and waiting on the door.

"Good morning Luna." Jason greeted me as I got in his car.

"Good morning Jason and please call me Katerina or Katya or Kate whatever you like. I wanted to apologize for what I did to you a few months ago. I'm really sorry. It was nothing personal I swear. I just... I didn't know what I was doing I-"

"It's alright Luna don't need to worry about me. I'm not mad at you so don't worry."

I asked Jason what happened when I left and he told me that Emmet never stopped looking for me, not even for a moment. He was so mad. He didn't eat, he barely slept. He was so worried for me. He hasn't lived normally since I left.

I felt so bad after hearing those things. I would never forgive myself for causing him so much pain.

But I couldn't think about that because we got to the place where they keep the prisoners. It was a dungeon. When I got in the cell where they kept the guy Jason got in with me.

"Hello again. I didn't expect to see you so soon. Where is your mate?"

"This is none of your business. Now why don't you start talking? For example tell me your name."

"My name is Thomas and that's the only thing you'll get from me."

"Are you sure?" I asked and then I punched him in the face. "Now tell me what you want from us."

"I told you. You're wasting your time."

"Wrong answer." I said before I kicked him in the stomach. He hissed in pain. But I didn't stop. I was angry for what he did to Emmet and I wanted answers. I punched and kicked and punched everywhere I could. My wolf and I needed a release from the pain. We wanted revenge.

"Luna you might need him alive." Jason interrupted me. I looked at Thomas he looked worse than Emmet. He had blood everywhere. He probably couldn't even talk. His face was unrecognizable.

"Are you going to say something now?" I asked one last time.

"All... I'm going to say... is that... I'm not you're only enemy." I punched him one last time and left the cell.

"Jason can you take me back to Emmet's house?"

"Of course Luna."

When I got in the house I took a quick shower to get rid of the awful smell of blood and dirt. After that I got back in bed and fall asleep.

*******

I woke up and it was around six in the afternoon.

The doctor should be here soon to see if Emmet still needs the systems or not. When he came and checked on him he said that Emmet is doing fine and he doesn't need the systems anymore but he won't be waking up soon. The silver is gone but his body has to heal.

Four days later I was still waiting. For four days I've done absolutely nothing. The doctor came twice a day every day to check up on him. His face looks better now. It has just a little bruised on a few places but other than that according to the doctor whose name is Victor, he's perfectly fine. Jason checked up on me and Emmet every day. He said that everybody wants to meet me but the beta whom I haven't meet yet told them that once Emmet is okay and walking he will personally show me to his pack. He also said that the beta I mean Peter wanted to leave me alone to recover and not stress me more with meeting him now so he like everyone else is waiting for Emmet to wake up. I spent those four days with watching TV, cleaning because I was bored. But mostly I spent them with waiting for Emmet. I stayed either on the other side of the bed or on the chair next his side of the bed.

I had his hand in my hands and stood on a chair. I instantly knew he was waking up when he squeezed my hand with the one I was holding. I stood up and went closer to him. I caressed his face and he opened his beautiful blue eyes.

His face was almost healed thanks to his people. Jason said that everyone from the pack wanted to give from their own blood to safe Emmet. But we could take from a few people only. It was enough though. The blood not only killed the silver but it helped his body heal the wounds and the broken parts even faster than the normal. Which is perfect because I was finally able to see his eyes and his smile and hear his voice. To feel his touch. To make sure he's fine.

"Emmet." I called him because I knew he was a little bit dizzy and probably didn't know where he is. When he realized he's in his bedroom and when he saw me he almost jumped out of the bed but I caught him on time and pushed him gently back down on the bed.

"Hey, hey it alright. You're home now. Calm down."

"Katerina."

Pain, happiness and surprise were mixed in his voice. Hearing him say my name set my body on fire. Literally, I felt so good hearing his voice

He caught my face in his big strong arms and sat on the bed. I stood in front of him and looked him straight in his eyes.

"Are you real? Am I dreaming? Are we dead?"

I smiled to him and touched his cheeks with one hand.

"No Emmet you're alive, you're not dreaming and I'm as real as you."

He looked astonished and scared that I might just disappear again.

"But how did we come here?" He looked around making sure we're really in his bedroom.

"Your pack saved us. They came just in time. I don't think I would have been able to get us out of there because outside of the rooms we were, were like twenty other men. Besides you passed out the moment they came. But I don't think you remember that because you were in a really bad condition."

"No, the last thing I remembered is seeing you fight the men in your room. How are you? Are you okay? Did they do something to you? I swear if they did I'm go-"

He looked confused. His hands went around my body checking if everything is on its place.

"No, I'm perfectly fine now that you woke up. And they didn't do anything to me. The guy who talked to us. His name is Thomas."

"But how do you know his name? I don't remember him telling us his name."

"Well he is the only one left alive. When they started... beating you." It hurts me every time I remember that scene. "I tried to free myself and luckily I did. I killed the other guy and was going to kill Thomas but first I told the two in your room to stop and to remove the chains from your hands. That's when Jason and the others came in."

"Where is Thomas now? You said he's alive."

"Yeah, he's in the dungeon." As soon as he heard that he got really angry and tried to get up.

"No, you have to stay here. If you think I'm going to let you go just when you woke up you're very wrong. Besides you're not going to get anything from him. I already tried. The only thing he said was his name."

"Wait, what do you mean you tried? Did you go there?" I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah four days ago I asked Jason. And don't worry he didn't want me to go but I insisted. I was angry and I needed to know what they want from us. I almost killed him but Jason stopped me. He said that we might need him alive and he was right."

He was a little angry at me I could see it but if he think I'm just going to stay here and be a good housewife he's mistaken again. He grabbed my hands to see if I was hurt and I was but it was worth it.

He gently kissed both my hands and I felt like they were all healed up.

"But how can you go there? It's dangerous I don't want you going there or going outside alone."

Okay I was getting irritated now.

"Don't worry Jason was there with me all the time. He wouldn't let me go alone. And how can you think I am just going to wait for you to wake up and do all the work. Don't you know me already? I told you I killed someone a few minutes ago and he wasn't my first one. We met because I had to kill you. This is my job. Don't you get it? I'm not scared. I'm not afraid to kill and haunt down the one who wants to hurt you. If I didn't try to stop the two men they would have killed you." I took his face in my hands and got closer to him. He pushed me even closer and now our chests were touching. My wolf was flying from happiness. We were so happy to be finally in the embrace of our mate. "I spent so much time away from you but I can't live my life without you in it anymore. I tried so much but no more. I wanted to be strong and independent. I was so stubborn and that led us to so much pain and I'm so sorry for doing this to you. I didn't even give you a chance." At this point I was on the verge of crying. But I promised myself not to cry and be strong. I wanted to tell him everything. He has the right to know. "When...I called you."

"I knew it was you." He smiled to that.

"When I called you and I heard your voice something inside me broke. It made me realize what a b*tch I was for putting you through this."

"No, baby that is no-"

"No, please let me finish I need to tell you this." I sat on the chair in front of Emmet." I tried to force myself not to think about you but it was impossible. When I couldn't take it anymore and decided to come but then someone called me just as I was about to go to the airport and told me that if I try to come here or even contact you they'll kill you. They even sent me a picture of you. So me and my best friend tried to think of how they knew about us or that I was leaving. Altogether I found that there was a guy following me everywhere. I found where he lived so I went there. I tried to torture him until he tells me what they want but I got nothing. So I came here as fast as I could before he tells his people. But apparently I was not fast enough because when I was almost here they got me and then I woke up in that room. You have no idea what I felt when I had to watch them beat you. It was like my heart was breaking in tiny pieces slowly and painfully. My wolf was on the edge but because of the silver I couldn't change. You don't know what I've been through in my life. I couldn't lose you. I thought...you were going to...die. I couldn't...I can't lose you too." I couldn't continue. Just imagining losing him hurts way too much and I had to stop talking because I was on verge of crying.

"Baby please don't think about that. You're breaking my heart. I'm here and I'm alive. Please don't worry about me. I would go through everything for you Katerina. When you tried to make a deal with Thomas for a moment I thought he was going to agree with you. I thought he was going to do something to you, to your little fragile body. I didn't even want him to touch you. And every time he hit you I exploded inside me. My wolf and I wanted to kill him for even talking to you with disrespect. No one can touch you let alone hurt you. I felt so much rage and madness when Thomas said he dressed you. I was literally seeing red. You have no idea what me and my wolf felt and what I wanted to do to him. Even the thought of him seeing and touching your beautiful naked body drives me insane. Are you sure he didn't take advantage of you?"

"Absolutely." I nodded.

"Thank goodness. Otherwise I don't know what I would do to him I swear. You're my mate and I would do everything for you. I need you. Please don't ever leave me again. Please."

He put me on his legs, mine locked around his waist. I hugged him and I felt like home. I didn't want to leave his embrace. Being in his hands was all I wanted all this time.

"I'm here and I'm staying forever. I'm not going to leave you again I promise. I'm not going to hurt you ever again. I swear."

I pushed him carefully down on the bed staring at him for a second.

"I need you way too much to leave you." When I said that I crushed my lips on his and my whole body went on fire. I felt so aroused just by that kiss. He made me feel alive again. He deepened the kiss, exploring my mouth and his hands lurking around my body.

I felt the need for more. I needed more of him. I wanted all of him. I grabbed the hem of his t-shirt and with his help I took it off quickly. He then did the same to me. I had nothing under my t-shirt. He looked over my chest eyes full of lust and his hands exploring my upper body. It felt so good feeling his hands on me. This is something I've never felt but I welcomed it with open hands. I needed him with every second that passes. This was new to me but Emmet filled me up with so much confidence like I've done it hundred times. And I wouldn't mind doing it with him.

But now was not the time for this. He needed rest, food and shower.

"Emmet wait."
