The Alpha's Special Mate novel Chapter 54

Skylar's POV

As soon as I got to the pack hospital and found my daughter's room I knew by the look on the doctor's face that it was bad. I sat on the edge of my little girls bed as I watched her sleep knowing that they put her out so that they could take some blood samples and run some tests on her. He left us to be while he went to check on the tests to see if the results had come in and as soon as he was back I saw the grim expression on his face and I knew what he was going to say before he even said anything.

"Luna I have some grave news about Lilith's condition." Doctor Ramsay said in a quiet tone

I looked up to him and gave a weak smile as tears shone in my eyes but refused to fall.

"I know what you are going to say doctor. I know that the bites the vamp gave her injected more venom into her system and since she is part Hell Hound with Alpha blood from me and Jace he system isn't shutting down like it should be. No her body is adjusting to it which is making everything about her speed up, her growth, her development, and her aging. Normally this amount of venom should be lethal to any werewolf but since she isn't a normal werewolf her body is acting differently because of the magic of being part Hell Hound. I know that what happened today is has shortened her life expectancy even more since the venom is destroying her cells at an even faster rate." I say to him making him hang his head down in shame in the fact that he can't do anything to help her no one can.

He left shortly after to let me sit with Lilith until she woke up from the sedative they had to give her. I didn't even notice that Jasper was sitting in the chair next to her bed until he placed his hand on my knee to give me some sort of comfort knowing that his Luna needed it. As soon as I looked over at him the tears ran down my face knowing that my time with my daughter had been cut even shorter now and I needed to tell Jace but I wasn't going to tell him until he came back which would be sometime tomorrow night since it didn't take long to do the paperwork or meeting with the Mystic Pack since they already were aware of everything and had everything set up in advance.

Once Lilith woke up Jasper and I brought her back to the house and made something to eat since we knew she would be hungry. As soon as we got to the house Jasper went to the kitchen to make us all some burgers and fries while Lilith napped in my arms as I sat in a recliner in the living room as I hummed a lullaby to my little one. When Jasper was done I woke Lily up and we ate our food and then Lilith fell back asleep once her tummy was full so I went and placed her in her bed. After I got back down stairs I could hear growling and that's when the scent of someone familiar hit me. I growled as I got closer to the front door where he stood Lucas Gray our former beta.

"What are you doing here you traitor?" I demanded in my Luna tone
