provide medical assistance.   We will be on the next plane if it won’t hurt my mate!”
    I wanted to help Trent feel better.  I felt real bad that this was my fault, but I had no control over my body.  I couldn’t feel anything physically and didn’t know what was going on, but I had to do something.  It wasn’t right that anyone suffer because of me.
    “No, Crystie.  You don’t worry about us, baby.  You have to wake up for me.  I’ve waited too long for my mate; I can’t lose you now.”  I could hear the anguish in his voice, but could still do nothing. 
    What did he mean that he’d been waiting for his mate?  What about Nikki?  I could hear the sincerity in his voice and my love for him grew, which I didn’t think was possible.  I was confused though.  I had done all of this for him and Nikki.
    “I know you’re with me still, baby.  I can feel you.”  Trent said.  He sounded closer now, maybe speaking in my ear?   “I love you.  I have waited for you.  The only reason Nikki and I were marrying was to help me be strong for the pack after my ascension to Alpha.  Nikki is my best friend, but we have never felt like that toward each other.”  He laughed a little.  “In school we decided to pretend we were together because of the girls trying to date the next Alpha and the boys going after her.  I wanted to save myself for my mate and she only loved her mate.  When he was killed, she didn’t want anyone else.  If I had known you were my mate back then…”  His voice broke, and I regretted my decision to avoid him for the first time since I was sixteen.
    “I love you, Crystie.  Please wake up and come back to me.”
    I loved this man so much, and I had done nothing but make us both suffer.  I was so stupid.  Instead of deciding things on my own, I should have given him the choice ; like everyone else told me to .  What I had thought was the right thing had not been.
    I remembered the trip to Spain my parents had t aken me on to meet the K ing .  Alpha Parker , his mate , and Trent had come with us, leaving the pack Beta’s family, including Nikki, home to care for and protect the pack.  I was younger and hadn’t understood the power I had that projected my feeling out to others, and I had been friends with all of my generation in th e pack, including Trent.  This t rip was one of the first times I started understanding my power.
    It was funny thinking back on it.  I was upset b ecause my pet, a pug named Bella , had been hit by a car and died not long before the trip.  Trent picked up on my depression and when I tried to make him feel better, he didn’t know why he was sad.  We played until I had him laughing again, but then I would think about my little Belle and it would make me sad again; in turn making Trent sad.  The two of us went in circles like that the whole trip; me getting depressed, Trent following my mood, me cheering him up, then the depression again.  Daddy had finally tried to explain what was happening and though I tried to understand, I was too young then to really get it.   The King had said it had made our visit very interesting.  At least between my dad and the King’s O mega, a little girl’s feelings wasn’t able to spread too far.
    Though I didn’t quite understand everything that had happened, I knew I had caused it somehow.  That was when I started backing away from my friends and pack mates.  Becca was the only one who wouldn’t let me go too far from her.  She had always been closer to me than the others, but I didn’t realize until I tried to let her go just how much I meant to her.  She was outgoing, but she told me one time that I was the only one who actually understood her.  She valued me because I saw her as more than the bubble brain she appeared to be to others.  It’s not t hat they made fun of her.  It was the opposite actually, she was friends with everyone, but I was the only one that took the time to know her
