“You ate today?” he asks and I nod my head laying down and placing my head on the pillow.
“Did she keep it down?” Ezra asks Mateo.
” She has only eaten toast and half a sausage roll” Mateo tells him. Ezra leans over me as I roll on my side. His huge hands rubbing my bump softly before he kisses it.
“I will make you something to eat” Ezra says and I yawn already about to nod off for my catnap and
Mateo lays down beside me, his hand going to my bump as he wrapped his body around mine spooning me. I don’t know how long I had been asleep before Ezra was forcing some dry crackers with jam on them down my throat.
“Eat and I will leave you alone ” He says. I growl at him but quickly scoff the food down before laying back down. Ezra pulls the blanket up over Mateo and I before climbing under it himself.
“You are napping too?” I ask him and he shakes his head, holding up his phone.
“I can work off my phone, go to sleep” He says, pulling my head on his chest while Mateo was curled against my back. I don’t know how long I was asleep for when this cold feeling settled over me, really cold and I started dreaming. I tried waking myself up. The cold feeling was unsettling yet the dream was too vivid to pull myself out of it and I felt like I was really there.
“Well isn’t this a strange dream?” I say to Seline. I was in what appeared to be and office. This was one fancy office, bookshelves lined the walls from floor to ceiling and a huge gold desk sat in the room. All whites and golds and so filled with light. A huge round fountain sat in the middle of the room and Seline was leaning over it looking into the water. She looks up at the sound of my voice.
“Kat?” She says almost alarmed.
“Hey, what’s up. Why did you pull one of your dream things?” I ask her.
“How did you get here?” She asks, standing up straight and looking confused.
“What do you mean? You pulled me here” I tell her, confused.
“No, I didn’t Kat, what is happening on earth, how did you get here. I didn’t bring you here ” She asks, grabbing my arms and looking at my face.
“Ah, I was sleeping Seline, you brought me here” I tell her and she shakes her head.
“Kat I didn’t bring you here, something must have happened” She says letting go and rushing back to her huge bird feeder fountain. She washes her fingers through the water. Water splashing out of it.
“You shouldn’t be here, there is only one way to get here Kat, something is wrong” She said splashing water everywhere before she gasps. I walk over to the fountain and peer in. It wasn’t a fountain at all but some sort of portal or something where I could see Ezra and Mateo and myself. I was sleeping when Mateo and Ezra both jerk, clutching their necks when I notice it. Black tendril like veins spreading across my face and arm. Ezra jumped up and shook me by my shoulders.
“No, something is wrong, you shouldn’t be here” Seline says splashing the water and more images pop up of me at Andrei’s then earlier when I felt dizzy.
“What do you mean Seline what’s going on?” I ask her, starting to worry.
“Kat, if you’re here, I need to get you back there. The fates are fiddling with my prophecies”
“Get me back? What are you talking about?” I ask her and she turns, grabbing my arms.
“Kat if you are here I have done something wrong, I need to figure out what happened, you shouldn’t be here, to be here that means you are dead” She says turning back to the fountain and splashing water and searching the past in its waters.
“What have I done, where did I go wrong?” She whispers her eyes frantically staring at the water of my memories.
“I made you a goddess, I did everything right. I don’t understand” She whispers.
My heart pounds at her words, I was dead. I died but how?
“You can get me back there though right, what about my babies?” I ask her and she looks at me, her eyes widening.
“The gemini twins” She gasps, muttering to herself, repeating the words she used when she blessed me and brought me back to life as she paced. She stops looking at me. “They need to get those babies out,” She says.
Ezra POV
I was replying and sending emails, when my neck started to burn. I looked down at Kat sleeping beside me, her head still on my chest when the burning grew so intense I rubbed my mark trying to stop the burning sensation when suddenly I felt deathly cold. Mateo jumps awake and gasps and I feel Kat’s skin lose its warmth against my skin. I roll her off yet she is unresponsive, black veins wriggling beneath her skin and her temperature falling and rising dramatically.
“Get Mathias” I tell Mateo, shaking Kat’s shoulders and I grip her chin.
“Kat?” I lightly tapped her cheek before putting my ear to her chest, yet I could hear the thudding of our babies chests, yet her heart suddenly stopped. I started chest compressions while I could see Mateo’s eyes glazed over. The veins moving and reappearing and disappearing, the colour draining and recolouring her cheeks, her body going hot then cold. It was like she was in between dying and living and my mark was burning like someone was holding a blowtorch to it.
“Mathias is on his way, we need to get her downstairs” Mateo says, scooping her up in his arms and he starts running down the stairs. He places her on the ground when Mathias’ voice flits through my head.
“5 minutes out” He said and I could hear he is running to the packhouse. Mateo was a picture of calm as he started administering CPR. Maddox was pacing restlessly and growling in my head. Yet I could not tear my eyes from the dark veins littering her pale skin. It made no sense, why did it feel like she was stuck in between and why were our marks burning and Mateo and I weren’t affected by her, usually when she is injured we too are also injured for her to heal she takes it from us.
“Maybe it is internally, maybe it’s them,” Maddox suggests.
“The babies, they are Gemini babies aren’t they the Moon Goddess blessed them”
“I don’t get it” I tell him.
“I don’t know, what if they are distressed and then being like kat it’s hurting her” Maddox says just as I hear running on the gravel outside. I stand opening the door to see Mathias wolf carrying a black bag in his mouth. I take it from him and rush back inside and hear him shift behind me. I start opening the bag having no idea what I am doing while Mateo is still doing chest compressions.
“Lift her shirt” Mathias voice says beside me while he pours what smells like alcohol over his hands from a clear bottle from the bag. I lift her shirt revealing her stomach, veins running across it and moving beneath her skin.
“I think you may be right Mateo ” Mathias says, grabbing a scalpel making me look at Mateo who was solely focused on manually pumping her heart.
“Towels Ezra and lots of them, and then I need you to shift” He says and I get to my feet racing up the stairs to the linen cupboard. I grab handfuls of towels before laying some out beside Mathias. He takes one of the towels wrapping it around his waist before kneeling and grabbing the scalpel in his hand.
“We need Maddox to heal her, she won’t heal on her own once I get these babies out, shift Ezra”
Mathias orders me and I obey him. Maddox was on edge severely and I was slightly nervous how he would react to someone cutting open his mate, but he trusted Mathias and stayed still patiently watching.
“Derrick is on his way, I mindlinked him” Mateo says and Maddox nods his fury head. I watch as he runs the scalpel over her stomach and Mateo makes a pained noise, Maddox howls as it feels like we are being cut into and Mateo’s shirt stains red. Looking down I was also bleeding on the floor.
“Shit, we can’t do this here” Mathias says, “you two may bleed out before either of you can heal her”
Mathias says his eyes glazing over and Kat’s wounds healing and so do ours slightly. Mathias injects
Kat with something, stabbing it in her thigh.
“Adrenaline” He tells Maddox who whined loudly and sniffs her leg before Mathias hands take over
Mateo’s and he takes over the chest compressions while Mateo falls backwards on his arse. I could feel nothing through the bond from him like he was purely existing on auto pilot and seemed to be in shock.
Sirens blare loudly outside and I don’t know how much time passes before Kat is carted away with
