Free Megan's Alpha Male by Becky Wilde Page A

Nik's face. He was holding her, but she couldn't seem to feel anything.
    Her vision began to fade, but she would not succumb to the dark, until she told Nik what she had intended, when she first walked into the study.

    “Nik,” Megan croaked out of a dry sore throat.

    “Oh Meg, don't talk baby. Save your strength and fight for me. I can't live without you Megan,” Nik sobbed, tears streaming from his eyes.

    “I love you, Nik,” Megan rasped out, just before she faded into the darkness.

    Nik gathered his mate in his arms and sobbed her name, “Megan, don't you dare leave me. I've only just found you. Please, don't die.”

    “I've called for an ambulance, it should be here any moment, Nik. She's a strong female, Alpha. She won't give up without a fight,” Harry stated, as walked unsteadily into the room, still battling the effects of the tranquilizer, and clasped Nik's shoulder in support.

    Harry and Nik heard the siren as the ambulance drew closer. Nik had to be pried away from his mate so the paramedics could work on her, to get her stabilized. He felt his knees weaken as they placed her on the stretcher and carried her to the waiting ambulance. Nik climbed into the back of the vehicle, after the paramedics and sat staring at his mate.

    Praying to God to save her life.

    He sat in the waiting room for hours and was unaware of his pack members joining him, one by one in his vigilance. He didn't move from the seat he was in, as he stared at the emergency room doors, willing a doctor to come and let him know his mate was out of danger.

    Nik sat up straight, as the emergency room doors opened to a male doctor. He walked toward Nik and shook his hand. I've done everything I can for your fiancé, Mr. Romanov. It's up to her and God now. She had extensive damage to her right lung. I've repaired the damage, but such a traumatic experience to a body can send a patient into shock and she still may not pull through. I'm sorry, but we've done all we can.
    Call me if you need to talk, anytime, day or night.” Nik forced his voice to work before the doctor left,
    “Can I see her, please?”

    “Sure, she's in intensive care, which is the best place for her to be. I don't want you to get a shock when you see all the machines she is hooked up to.
    They are there for an added extra to monitor your fiancé's vital signs. Please, follow me.” Nik followed the doctor into the intensive care unit. His knees nearly buckled beneath him when he saw Megan so pale and lifeless. He sat down in the chair on the opposite side of the nurse, monitoring her and took her hand in his. He brought her hand to his mouth and kissed it. He breathed in the scent of her skin and lay his head down on the mattress beside her and prayed. He didn't stop praying until he fell into a light doze at his mate's side. He dreamed of a beautiful woman floating in the room looking down at his mate.

    “You love her more than your own life, Nikolai Romanov. I couldn't have wished for a better husband for my daughter. Megan will recover, but it will take months for her to be as healthy as she was. She loves you and wants to spend the rest of her life with you.
    She didn't get to tell you everything in her heart, before she slipped into the darkness. Megan wants to marry you and have children with you. She wants to be able to spend the rest of your life with you as well.
    Which means she wanted you to change her to be as you are. If you change her now, her recovery will be much faster as you know. You will have five minutes to change her, when the nurses change shift. Do it quickly. You will have a long life filled with love, laughter and children. Blessed Be.”

    Nik watched the apparition in his dream place a kiss on his mate's head and fade away before his eyes.
    He jerked up and realized he had been asleep, dreaming. He watched the nurse check his mate's vitals as she moved to the closed curtains.

    “It's shift change. It won't be any longer than five
