Hey guys got to do things today so I made a short chapter but I will try to make a bigger one tomorrow.

Kate woke up with a splitting headache and cuts all over her but not too bad. She looked around and noticed she was in her parents den with her parents talking at the front of it.

"Mom Dad, what happened?" she asked getting up.

Her parents rushed in and embraced her with a hug. As they cried tears of joy.

"Thank goodness your okay!" Eve said letting go of her daughter. "If I ever see another southern wolf again I will tear him open and feed the him to the pack!

Kate stared at her mother shocked before speaking again. "Um guys, where's Humphrey?" Kate asked with a questioning look.

Winston looked at her and frowned before telling her the shocking truth. "Kate Humphrey may not make it, his wounds are pretty bad. You would be like that too but he said he covered you with his body when he woke up again but he's been unconscious for awhile."

Kate looked at him horrified as she realized that this would be the second time Humphrey might leave her. "Where is he I want to see him." Kate asked.

Eve pointed to the back of the den where Humphrey lay with terrible cuts and bruises all over him and blood on the floor. Kate rushed over to him and tried to wake him up but he wouldn't. Kate tried for about another five minutes before breaking down crying.

"Why does this have to happen to him why him?" Kate screamed as she cried into his fur "he is the best wolf I know and he has to go through all of this?"

Kate cried for her fallen mate for hours until she cried herself to sleep.

Humphrey woke up and looked around to see everyone around him sleeping he tried not to wake everyone up but when he got up he tried to walk out of the den but tripped and fell over causing him to yelp waking everyone up.

"Humphrey! Is that you!" Kate screamed getting up and walking up to him.

"Ya but why what's wrong Kate? Did something happen while I was out or something?" he asked looking at everyone with a confused face.

Kate pulled him into a hug and Humphrey couldn't help but hug her back.

"We thought you weren't going to make it from all your injuries after the war." Kate said looking at the ground.

Humphrey pulled her back into a hug as the embraced each other Garth and Lilly walked in and saw Humphrey awake and ran over to him.

"Guys I know your excited to see me but let's talk in the morning and go to sleep okay." Humphrey said laying down next to Kate and slept peacefully that night.
