Chapter 0397 

“What do you mean?” 

“Sprites are gentle, fragile creatures. When their bodies are injured so horribly, they lose faith in the goodness of life and give up any desire to live. When that happens, their light goes out. Unless they have someone who can help them to feel love and happiness again, they will not survive such a wound.” 

A thought is taking shape in my mind. “What about a wolf? Can sprites mate with wolves?” 

“In the recent past, they haven’t because wolves have become so aggressive and with the rift between the fae and werewolves, there wasn’t opportunity for mating to occur. But centuries ago, the fae and wolves mated frequently.” 

“How would they mate? If she’s injured, he can’t bite her like we normally would.” 

“He would need to lick her.” Oh goddess. Alexander mated those twins and doesn’t even know it. 

“Once she is strong enough, he can bite her like you wolves do, if she is agreeable. But in the state you mention, he would lick the injury, letting her know that he doesn’t care that she’s missing a wing, letting her know that he loves her no matter what has happened to her.” 

“Thank you Aolis.” 

“Please let me know if we lose one of our gentle souls.” 

“I will.” I tell him before turning to go back. 

When I arrive, I see Grace has convinced Connor to let Sirona approach Tula. He’s still standing right next to her, nudging her gently with his nose. 

“Thomas. I need to speak to you. Privately.” I tell him through the mind link. 

Connor lifts his head and looks at me. “Can’t it wait, Alpha?” 

“I may have a way to save her. But I need you to understand the consequences before you do something drastic.” 

Connor let’s Thomas shift. Thomas leans down, gently caressing the sprite’s face. “I’ll be right back. You hold on. I won’t be more than a minute.” He tells her before gently kissing her head and standing to come to me. 

We walk back to the office, and I turn to look at him. “I spoke to Aolis and there is 

a possible way to save her.” 

“Then what are we waiting for, let’s do it.” 

“It requires becoming her mate.” I say and look at him meaningfully. 

He turns, looking in the direction that we left Tula. “Her mate?” 

“Yes. Apparently in the past, fae and wolves were mated fairly frequently, but it. hasn’t happened in nearly a century.” Except with Alexander, but no one except me knows that yet. 

“Connor seems protective of her. I wasn’t sure if that meant he was willing to accept her as a mate. But that is her only option for survival. Her mate would have to lick her where she lost her wing, indicating that he accepts her in her injured and battered state. If what Aolis says is accurate, that will help her feel love and that there is a reason to live, and she will begin to heal.” 

“Her light will come back?” 

“That’s what he said.” 

“He also said that they are gentle, fragile creatures, so you would be mating yourself to someone that would need your protection for the rest of your life. He also said that once she’s healed, you can mark her like a wolf, if she agrees.” 

“Eli.” Grace links me. “If you have something to save her, now is the time. She won’t last much longer.” 

“I’m afraid you don’t have much time to decide Thomas. Grace says she doesn’t have long.” 

“Connor and I want her.” He says, growling and shifting before jogging back to her. When we arrive, her light is so dim it’s nearly gone. 

Connor whines, looking at me. “Aolis said to lick her wound.” 

I hear a gasp from the twins, and they begin twittering about being mated to a wolf. 

Connor reaches down and gently licks her back, purring at her. She doesn’t immediately respond, and he whines, continuing to slowly and gently lick her. Finally, she lifts her head. He licks her face, and she gently puts her hands on his face. As her light starts to shine a bit brighter, Connor shifts and Thomas takes. her in his arms.
