Hidden Omega

A few days later, I woke up in a cold sweat and quickly threw my head between my legs. I fought to catch my breath as I shook violently. Hunter's body and tombstone filled my head as I cried. I laid onto my side as my stomach twisted.

Today's the day. I gulped hard; it's now or never. Either Hunter's life is saved or he continues to deteriorate. I suddenly felt even worse and rushed to the bathroom. I threw up and stayed in the bathroom in fear of it happening again.

I looked up when I heard someone near and saw Chase rush over to me. "Are you okay?!"

I sighed, "just feeling a bit sick."

Chase aided me to my feet and brought me to my bed. I slumped back on it and Chase began moving around the room.

I looked to him to see he was packing a bag, "I can do that, Chase."

He shook his head, "stop worrying me and just lay down."

I laid back and focused on not getting sick again. Chase brought the bag over and then aided me to my feet. I changed into jeans and a tshirt before squeezing the ring hanging around my neck in my hand. I followed Chase out to the living room and saw the twins watching TV. They both rushed over to me and hugged me as I fought not to shake.

"We need to head out," Elijah called as he came in the house. I took the twins and brought them out to Elijah's large car. I got them buckled in before taking the passenger's seat. Chase got in between the twins after putting my bag in the trunk.

Elijah gently touched my cheek and I looked to him, "it will be okay. He will make it."

I nodded before leaning against the window and focusing on not getting sick. As we got to the hospital, I slipped on a loose hoodie and tried to stop shaking. When we parked, I picked up Archer and carried him in as Chase carried Ashley. Elijah carried in my bag and followed close behind.

"What's the plan?" Chase asked me as I glanced at him.

"He's in a private room a few floors up from Hunter. I will go between the two rooms as much as I can, but we can't let anyone else know. I will stay the night with him, as I promised. You and the kids will go home with Elijah and return tomorrow."

"Are you going to be okay?"

I looked to him and blinked back tears, "I'm trying." We went up to the front desk and I found out Hunter's room number. We went up to the level it was in and I fought my tears. "Can you keep them out here for a bit? I can't hold back and I don't want them to see this." I said as I looked to Chase and Elijah, who nodded.

I set Archer down and slowly made my way to Hunter's room. I knocked, "come in."

I slowly opened the door and saw everyone was inside, but all I could look at was Hunter. The rest of them were not my focus right now. My tears began flowing as I looked to him.

"Come here you cry baby," Hunter mocked as Shannon moved out of the way. I rushed over to his side and quickly hugged him. I fought back noises as I cried and Hunter rubbed my back. "Its going to be okay."

I tried to gain some composure, "I know but I can't ignore my fears."

I pulled off his shoulder and he wiped my face of tears, "where are the kiddos?"

I smiled slightly, "out in the hallway. I didn't want them see me cry." I went back into the doorway and gestured for them to come over.

"Uncle Hunter!" The twins cheered before rushing over to the side of his bed. Chase guided my head to his shoulder and wrapped his arms around me.

"He's here?" I whispered to him.

"Yeah," he whispered back in a sigh, "he looks like he wants to talk to you."

I shook my head, "we're done talking. He's gotta move on." I paused when my phone went off. I looked to see a room number and looked to Hunter. "I'll be back in a bit. The donor just got here so I'm gonna go check in on him."

Hunter sighed, "he really won't meet me? All I want to do is thank him."

I gave him a soft smile, "I've told him countless times of how thankful we are for him. But he wants to be anonymous. I'll be back in a bit." Elijah gave me a slight glare, "keep an eye on them for me, okay?"

He nodded reluctantly before kissing the top of my head, "hurry back."

I nodded before rushing down the hall to the elevator. I went four floors up and came out to see a very unique looking area separated from the area I walked into with translucent glass doors. A woman at a desk near the doors gave me a slight smile, "can I help you?"

I went to her, "I'm here for Jayden Peters."

"I.D.?"

I paused, "um, yeah." I handed it to her and she looked on a computer screen.

"Ah, yes. Mr. Maurer. Please follow me." She stood and held up her badge to a scanner next to the glass doors. They opened and I quickly followed her in. She led me down a pristine looking hallway that seemed like it was a high class hotel rather than a hospital except it was still all white. She stopped at a door and knocked.

"Yes?"

"Mr. Peters, Mr. Maurer has come to see you. Are you alright with this?"

Jayden opened the door and gave me a large smile, "absolutely. Thank you for guiding him." He took my hand and kissed the back if it. He led me into his room and over to his bed as the woman shut the door. He sat down and then guided me to sit in his ŀȧp as his legs were off the bed. He hugged me gently against his ċhėst and rested his head on mine. "You're eyes are swollen," he whispered as he lightly rubbed my forearm. "Everything is going to be okay."

I hugged him as I began crying, "I'm so scared," I whispered into his shirt, "I can't live without Hunter; he is my everything! This is my last chance and I have to leave it up to fate!"

Jayden lifted my head by putting his fingers under my chin so that we looked eye to eye. His eyes showed strength and kindness that put me somewhat at ease.

"Rely on me," he whispered as I looked at him with surprise. "I will make sure it works and I will keep you from losing Hunter. Believe in me and believe in Hunter and everything will work out."

We both looked up when doctor came into the room with a knock on the door. He smiled at us before coming over. "Are you ready?"

Jayden gave him a confident smile before nodding. "Doc," I said as I looked towards him and wiped my face. "Can you give us a minute?"

The doctor nodded with a broader smile before going out the door and shutting it behind him. I removed his hands from me before I stood and readjusted in his ŀȧp so that I straddled him. He looked to me with surprise and excitement but became curious when I pulled something out of my sweatshirt pocket.

"Put out your wrist," I asked and he quickly did so. I took a leather strand and tied it around his wrist. When I remove my hands from his wrisy, he turned it around slightly so that he could look at the entire object. He then look back up to me for an explanation as his eyes became lovesick. "Archer and Ashley made this for you," I said as he looked as though he was going to cry of happiness. "You have gained our trust," I whispered before kissing him gently.

"I'm beginning to like you Jay," I whispered. "I want to try to return your feelings," I added as a giant smile came to his face while tears began welling in his eyes.

I leaned in and kissed him and was not surprised when one of his arms came off of around my waist and he placed his hand on the back of my head. He pulled me against him and quickly slid his tongue into my mouth. His movements were gentle but agressive as his pheromones rapidly increased. He began ŀɨċkɨnġ and suċkɨnġ my lips as I trembled and squeezed myself against him. I finally pulled us apart, but he followed me and kissed me more.

"You have to go," I whispered through his kisses.

"That's cruel, you know," he muttered as he lessend his speed, "telling me something like that right before the procedure." His hands moved down my back as I shuddered.

I kissed him one last time before looking into his eyes, "think of it as motivation." I said with a smirk, "we can finish tonight. I'm all yours once the kids leave."

He growled before kissing me once more, "you aren't going to get any sleep."

I chuckled before getting off of him. He walked with me to the door and the doctor led him off in the opposite direction. I hesitantly left the area and went down to the floor Hunter was on.. I came into the room and gave a smile as everyone looked to me.
