Elliot woke to the sight of a hospital room with a nurse checking in his vitals. "What happened..." The nurse only then noticed he was awake and went near him to explain the situation.

"You're place was near a burning building and smoke got into your system. Good thing it didn't reach to affect greatly the babies. You're stable now. The babies are too. Do you want to see your mate? Well, he said you are his mate but your records don't say anything about it so as procedure, we waited for you to wake up and clarify. He's been waiting outside since yesterday you've been admitted. He was the one that brought you here.

Elliot was a clash of emotions hearing about what Alex had done. He had just saved him and their little ones. Would this mean that Alex was really sincere? But even if he does really love them, it still hurts that Alex had to lie to him.

"Don't let him in... Um...can you give him a message?" At the nod of the nurse, Elliot began writing.

The nurse exited the room and Alex was anxious if he got the approval, only to shake her head no. But she did give the sad alpha his omega's message. It read:

"To my love, Alex

First of all, thank you for saving me and our children. The four of us are alright, so don't worry.

I'm sorry if I can't easily trust you enough to forgive you now, but you must understand why. I do not hate you, and I feel that I can never hate you. I also still want to have a proper family when the babies are born. So as much as it hurts, I'll try my best to forgive you. I'll need my time to wrap my head around things, and all I ask is for you to give me space and time, and for you to take care of yourself even if we're apart. I love you, always.
