Chapter 0426 "Dr. Ryan nodded and then turned his attention to me.
“Drink plenty of water and get some rest,” he ordered me.
I nodded.
“Thank you,” I said to him.
Once he was gone, my father grabbed the clothes the nurses had washed for me and brought them to me. I was currently wearing a hospital gown that I couldn’t wait to get out of.
“Are you going to see Hazel before we leave?” I asked him.
He nodded.
“Yes,” he answered out loud. “I think it’s the right thing to do.” “Tagree,” Isaid in return. “I'd like to see her as well.”
My father turned away so I could finish getting dressed and once I was done, I wobbly stood to my feet. Thankfully, he was there to catch me as I tipped over. I was much weaker than I thought I was.
“Hold on,” my father said, helping me sit down in one of the chairs and as he left the room for only a moment. He returned with a wheelchair.
“Dad...” I complained.
“Just until we get to my car,” he said, giving me a stern and fatherly look.
I stifled a groan and allowed him to help me into the chair. Once I was seated, he wheeled me into the hallway and toward Hazel’s room. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
She was only a few doors away and when we got to her door, my father knocked until he heard her faint voice permitting him to enter.
Hazel sat up in her bed, staring at the
I doorway as entered with a polite and yet worried smile on her face.
"was astonished by the bruising on-her face and the paleness of her features, but I wasn’t going to say anything about it.
“J can see from your aura that you are a powerful Alpha,” Hazel said, looking up at my father through her swollen eyes.
“1 am Alpha Bastien,” he said, bowing his head politely to her. “I’m sorry I haven’t come to see you sooner.” “I’m sure you were very busy, Alpha,” she said in return. “I didn’t expect you to come at all.” “1 wanted to make sure you were doing okay,” my father said gently. “How are you feeling?” “I’m getting better each day. The doctors here are very kind and good at their jobs.
The swelling has gone down a lot and I can see out my eyes again.”
I “I’m glad to hear that,” my father said “Is there anything I can do for you?” “No, Alpha. But I appreciate your kindness.” He nodded his head to her. But then her . eyes flashed to me.
“Keep yourself safe, child. I have a terrible feeling that something awful is approaching. Something dark.” I raised my brows at her.
“What do you mean?” I asked. “What’s approaching?” “I don’t know for sure. But I know it involves you and whatever happened tonight that landed you here. I know it’s not over and that it’s only beginning.” My heart weighed heavily in my chest, and I had to take a deep and steady breath to center myself.
“She has a lot of people around to protect
I her,” my father said, glancing in my direction. “We won't let anything happen I to her.” Hazel smiled, but it didn’t reach her eyes.
“We should go though. Lila needs to get some rest so she can heal, and you should rest too,” my father said to her, squeezing her hand before releasing it.
“Be safe,” she said to us both just before we left.
We walked out of the hospital in silence and when we reached his car, I wanted to ask what she meant by all that, but I could see the firmness on my father's face, and I knew he wasn’t going to tell me the answers even if he happened to know them.
The car ride to the Calypso pack was quiet. I helped my father settle into the guest room before going into the kitchen to grab some food from Dee. [ hadn’t eaten all day and night, and I was
I starving. Though I was still extremely worried for Enzo, I needed to eat I something so my stomach didn’t eat itself.
My father joined me in the kitchen, and we ate a small meal with Dee who happily talked our ears off about her day, trying to get our minds off everything that had happened. I’m sure Enzo and Ethan had already filled her in on everything.
Our talking soon silenced when I heard the light engine of a car just outside the packhouse and a knot formed tightly in my stomach. I looked at my father who was looking in the direction of the main foyer before he stood to his feet.
“Seems our guest has arrived,” he said casually as he began his way to greet them.
I looked at Dee who exchanged my worried look before I went to follow my father to the main foyer. We both stood there as the doors opened and Ethan
came walking in with a couple of warriors, including Jack, trailing behind him.
In this grasp, cuffed, standing before me was none other than Professor Xander.
I Our eyes met and he gave me a glowering smile.
