”Good.” he sighed a little in relief. ”Just in pain… All over?” he asked, remembering the symptoms from when he went through the same thing.

She nodded " but I'll be okay?" She asked him

”You’re cutting it close but you’ll be alright.” Lysander smiled at her.

”No kidding.” Henry piped up as he walked in the room. ”Bets, have you ever actually gone hunting?” he asked honestly as he handed her the bag.

"yes Alec was a phenomenal hunter " she said sadly

”Ah, right.” Henry mumbled, embarrassed that he forgot about her year in Australia.

Lysander stiffened a little at the mention of that psycho but closed his eyes and let out a deep breath to stay calm.

She closed her eyes letting tears fall down her cheeks

”I’m sorry.” Henry whispered, standing back up. ”Umm… Do either of you need anything else?”

Lysander shook his head and gently placed his hand on Betty's shoulder.

Betty looked at lysander with tearful eyes

”It’s ok, love. He can't get you anymore.” Lysander said gently, looking at her lovingly as Henry left the room.

She whimpered closing her eyes

Lysander pulled the blanket over himself and reached towards her. ”Come here, darling.”

She scooted closer to him resting her head on the pillow on his shoulder

Using the blanket as a protective barrier, he gently wrapped his arms around her. ”It’s ok. It's alright, you’re safe. I’m here.” he whispered soothingly.

She whimpered again as she scooted closer

He started to rub her back in gentle soothing circles as he continued to whisper little comforts to her.

After a while Betty started to doze off

He smiled softly as she fell asleep and closed his eyes soon after.

" don't leave me" she mumbled before falling asleep

”Never.” he whispered, holding her a little closer without hurting either of them.

The next day Betty was fast asleep her shirt riding up as she snuggled close to lysander

Lysander was still fast asleep, keeping his arms around his wife.

Charles had arrived with the children while everyone else was sleeping since it was safer for the younger twins to travel at night.

She had her face barried in the crook of his neck

Lysander’s heart was beating steadily, calmly… In a way, it was almost helping keep him asleep, just as much as being close to Betty.

Henry and Evan had gone out for a quick hunt, now that Charles was around to keep an eye on everyone.

She had her arm on his chest her hand in his heart as if she was making sure it was beating

Lysander slowly stirred awake. His sense of smell may not have been as strong as it was as a vampire but something in the kitchen sure smelled really good.
